[Zope] 2.6.0 errors

Hi,

I'm trying out Zope 2.6.0 on Solaris, using the binary distro.  I've been
using 2.5.1 successfully. I set up 2.6.0 to start as root, then switch to
user 'zope'.  I can start Zope, but when I try to add the tutorial, I get
this error:
Traceback (innermost last):
  Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 98, in publish
  Module ZPublisher.mapply, line 88, in mapply
  Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 39, in call_object
  Module Products.ZopeTutorial.TutorialTopic, line 163, in addTutorial
Bad Request: The ZGadflyDA product must be installed!

I look in Products and see ZGadflyDA is installed, not broken.  So I try to
add a ZGadfly connection and get:
Traceback (innermost last):
  Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 98, in publish
  Module ZPublisher.mapply, line 88, in mapply
  Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 39, in call_object
  Module Products.ZGadflyDA, line 59, in manage_addZGadflyConnectionForm
  Module App.special_dtml, line 61, in __call__
  Module DocumentTemplate.DT_String, line 474, in __call__
  Module Products.ZGadflyDA.db, line 32, in manage_DataSources
Gadfly Error: 
                The Zope Gadfly Database Adapter requires the
                existence of the directory,
<code>/usr/local/zope/2.6.0/var/gadfly</code>.  An error
                occurred  while trying to create this directory.

So is this merely a permissions problem?  I followed the instructions: var
owned by root, then chmod 1775 to set the sticky bit (chmod o+t didn't work
in Solaris).  Thus I wind up with var having permissions of drwxrwxr-t.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.
