Hey,

I am having troubles getting my install of Zope 2.7 to work on my
Slackware box. It install correctly, and I can run the
mkzopeinstall.py script, but when I run runzope I get this error:

------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/usr/lib/zope2.7/lib/python/Zope/Startup/run.py", line 27, in ?
   run()
 File "/usr/lib/zope2.7/lib/python/Zope/Startup/run.py", line 24, in run
   start_zope(opts.configroot)
 File "/usr/lib/zope2.7/lib/python/Zope/Startup/__init__.py", line
88, in start_zope
   do_posix_stuff(cfg)
 File "/usr/lib/zope2.7/lib/python/Zope/Startup/__init__.py", line
217, in do_posix_stuff
   uid = pwd.getpwnam(UID)[2]
KeyError: 'getpwnam(): name not found: zope'
------------------------------------------------

This occurs after I receive some "ZServer started" messages (for both
HTTP and FTP).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sam.
