After installing products you are not able to start zope because they haven't the correct ownership. Maybe zprod-manager should set the ownership to the user defined as 'effective-user' in ZOPE_INSTACE/etc/zope.conf. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start zprod-manager as root 2. add new product(s) into a zope instance 3. (re)start the zope instance Actual Results: Zope does not start. Expected Results: Zope should install the new products.
hello, thank you for your comment. afaik zprod-manager installs files with correct permissions. anyway zope-config & zprod-manager have some quirks, but many people use them withou problems. so could you please: 1. give us version of zope/zope-config/zprod-manager 2. info about your zope instance and its permissions 3. info about permissions of products in global product repository (/usr/share/zproduct) 4. info about wrong (broken) permission after unsuccesfull instalion by zprod-manager. looking forward info from you.
Updating to version 0.3 resolves the problem; but I'm getting some matter installing archetypes-1.2.5_rc5 on Zope 2.7.4. Should I enter a new bug? This is the output I'm getting: cp: cannot stat `/usr/share/zproduct//archetypes-1.2.5_rc5/ArchExample': No such file or directory cp: cannot stat `/usr/share/zproduct//archetypes-1.2.5_rc5/ArchGenXML': No such file or directory chown: cannot access `/var/lib/zope/zope-pol/Products/ArchExample': No such file or directory chmod: cannot access `/var/lib/zope/zope-pol/Products/ArchExample': No such file or directory chown: cannot access `/var/lib/zope/zope-pol/Products/ArchGenXML': No such file or directory chmod: cannot access `/var/lib/zope/zope-pol/Products/ArchGenXML': No such file or directory
no. This is problem with /usr/share/zproduct/archetypes-1.2.5_rc5/.zfolder.lst file, which lists directory to copy on product installation done by zprod-manager. in this case this is known problem related to archetypes, not the zprod-manager. thank you for your information
Fixed in 0.3 according to comment #2
