[Zope] Having to keep typing "./start &"

[Douglas Carnall]

Assuming you have followed:

http://www.zope.org/Members/mcdonc/HowTos/zopeinstall/ZOPE-INSTALL-HOWTO

the next thing to look at is

http://www.zope.org/Members/jens/docs/newbie_caveats

I think your problem may be to do with the fact that the Zope binaries for
Linux ship with the -D (=debug) option in the start script enabled by
default. With this enabled, when you close the terminal you started zope in,
you stop zope.

If I am right, then this is an FAQ. Each time I answer it, I plaintively
wonder aloud why the -D flag would be the default, but I am generally
ignored.

Good luck with it anyways.
