[Zope] start stop problems after renaming Zope installation

[Jason Cunliffe]

hum: Newbie Trouble understanding how Zope 'sees' itelf and where it sets
this ...

Am upgrading from Zope 2.2.5 to 2.3.1b3 on Linux Redhat6.2
Running behind Apache 1.3 with Proxy Pass Directives and Siteroot.

Thought I would install install Zope in a separate folder and do some
private tests and imports firsts. I installed Zope-2.3.1-src.tgz but after
installing renamed its root folder to 'Zope231' [I'm a bad dislexic typist].

Problem: It starts OK but when I try to stop from su I get this error:

[root@colocate05 Zope231]# ./stop
cat: /web/Zope-2.3.1-src/var/Z2.pid: No such file or directory

Obviously when running Zope still 'thinks' it is in /web/Zope-2.3.1-src/ but
it is actually /web/Zope231/ now.

Q1: Where and when does Zope set this ?
Q2: How do I change it?
Q2: How best to install Zope adn upgrades into a newly named directory
without these problems?


Using Zope manage control panel to restart or stop I get the same problem:
