Just starting to learn Zope. Running Mandrake 6.1 on AMD K6. Grabbed Zope 2.1.4 i386 .tgz. Unpacked in /usr/share/zope-2.1.4 . ./install -u Super_Manager_username --> ok, except, thanks to Zope List archives, figured out I had to chown nobody. .../var and rerun ./install, otherwise it aborted trying to write the Z2.pid file. (Some one should report that as a bug, that ./install gets the .../var ownership wrong.) Now, using the Lynx browser (of course), Goto: http://localhost:8080 --> Welcome to Zope! But, selecting "management screen", I give it Username & Password for Super Manager --> Authorization failed. So, I try the "bin/python zpasswd.py zpassword" from /usr/share/zope-2.1.4. All looks fine, but doesn't work. Am excited about using Zope, and later the Portal Tool Kit. Just this one little problem, though. Thanks for your help. ------------------ Eddie Maddox eddie@mngovsci.com

-u is for the unix user you want Zope to run as, not to set the Zope superuser username. This probably explains the rest of your problems being due to permissions. -Michel
