Do you mean to say that every time Zope tries to serve a page that
doesn't exist that ZServer stops running?

http://www.google.com/search?q=STUPID_LOG_FILE

basically, set an environment variable named STUPID_LOG_FILE to the name
of the file where you'd like debug info to go.

On UNIX, add the following to your Zope's "start" file:

export STUPID_LOG_FILE=var/debug.log

A file will be created in the var directory of that Zope instance when
Zope is run named "debug.log".  It will collect messages related to Zope
operation.  Some will be meaningful, some less so.  ;-)
