I just want to make sure I point out to you, that little of this has  
to do with Zope itself, and most of the audience of this list knows  
little or cares little about the peculiarities of the MacOSX/Darwin  
init environment.


One piece of information that I now realize that I forgot to put in  
the previous message was that if you have the section "if [ "$ 
{ZOPESERVER=-NO-}" = "-YES-" ]; then" in your startup script, then  
you probably have to put a line in your /etc/hostconfig that says   
ZOPESERVER=-YES-. The bundles in /System/Library/StartupItems and / 
Library/StartupItems tell the machine how to start services and in  
what order, but the /etc/hostconfig file specifies which services are  
desired for a particular machine.

If you want to diagnose the shell script in /Library/StartupItems/ 
Zope/Zope, you might want to try to run it with the bourne shell's  
trace option, specified by the "-x" parameter.

sh -x /Library/StartupItems/Zope/Zope start
