I think so, you'd better update Python and I'm pretty sure it will work (update python-devel as well) "Simon Angling" <simon@anglings.com> wrote on 19/05/2004 08.53.43:

I was using 2.2.2 - I was given a message saying this wasn't the best version but it was acceptable. Do you think this is the problem?

Thanks, Simon

Which version of python do you use? You need to use Python 2.3.2 or later

I've been working with Zope for a couple of weeks on my local system (Windows XP). I've been try to install on linux all evening but have got so far but haven't got the thing to run. When I think I'm finished and come to running I get the following:

- I'm not really too familiar with Linux but can anyone help set me on the right path.

Thanks, Simon

Oh well - serves me right for being lazy! Thanks Chris and Gael for putting me back on track.

It lied, that's my fault.. sorry! You do indeed need Python 2.3.3. - C

Here's one that works under Redhat/Fedora... within it, replace <<ZOPECTL>> with '/path/to/your/zopectl', put it in /etc/init.d as "zope" then do "chkconfig --add zope". In your zope.conf make sure to set an "effective user" (maybe the user account under which you installed Zope), as Zope will not allow itself to be run as root. http://www.plope.com/software/zope-rpm/zope.init.in - C On Wed, 2004-05-19 at 19:49, Simon Angling wrote:

I've managed to get Zope2.7 running on a Linux server but can someone help me out with a script to get it to run automatically on startup.

It'll work at startup, but the beauty of the init.d system is that it'll switch services on and off as you change runlevel, and also give you a way to restart them. Your fix won't shut Zope down neatly. If you don't have an init.d you may be running on a non-System V Unix. Just in case it proves of use, here's my startup script, /etc/rc.d/init.d/zope which manages Zope and Zeo, all in one little measure. Marvellous!* --start of script-- #!/bin/bash # # /etc/rc.d/init.d/zope # Source function library. . /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions case "$1" in start) echo -n 'Starting zeo daemon: ' /mnt/extended/zeo/bin/zeoctl start /mnt/extended/zeo/bin/zeoctl status echo -n 'Starting zope daemon: ' /mnt/extended/floofs/bin/zopectl start ;; stop) echo -n 'Stopping zope daemon: ' /mnt/extended/floofs/bin/zopectl stop echo -n 'Stopping zeo daemon: ' /mnt/extended/zeo/bin/zeoctl stop ;; reload|restart) $0 stop $0 start ;; status) echo -n 'zeo daemon: ' /mnt/extended/zeo/bin/zeoctl status echo -n 'zope daemon: ' /mnt/extended/floofs/bin/zopectl status ;; *) echo "Usage: /etc/rc.d/init.d/zope {start|stop|restart|reload|status}" exit 1 esac exit 0 --end of script-- *That was a Brit culture joke.
