Bug 42111 – Zope 2.6.4 ebuild missing an option

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Jesse Adelman 2004-02-18 21:07:56 UTC]

Hi, all. Just found that the new 2.6.4 ebuild doesn't add this to /etc/conf.d/zope-2_6_4:

ZOPE_OPTS="-u zope"

The ebuild does add the user, and does have the user setup in /etc/zope-config.conf.

While an easy bug to fix, it might flummox a new Zope user who doesn't have an earlier ebuild installed to compare configs against.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge zope
2. /etc/init.d/zope-2_6_4 start
3.


Actual Results:  
In /var/log/zope/zope-2_6_4:

2004-02-18T20:54:13 PANIC(300) z2 Startup exception
Traceback (innermost last):
  File //usr/share/zope//zope-2.6.4/z2.py, line 843, in ?
SystemExit: A user was not specified to setuid to; fix this to start as root (se
e doc/SETUID.txt)

Expected Results:  
Services start, parent Zope process creates subprocess under "zope" user context.

o.k., i think i fixed it :)
i've added some more features - kutsuya, i'll be happy if they make their way to portage..

- added private environment variable ZOPE_ENCODING. based on this zope stx will be patched to allow unicode (necessary e.g. for german)
- files/2.6.4/conf.d holds the information for the environment (ZOPEOPTS -u zope)
- files/2.6.4/init.d is now also filled in with the right python version

- logging: two log files are created. zope-2_6_4 is the "normal" log file, zope-2_6_4.log is the startup log of zope. the second is quite useful when zope won't startup

one thing we should think about: python-version...
- "everybody" is running zope2.6 on py2.3 although it is not officially supported by zope corp...
i think we should move to py 2.3.3

please always post diffs. i was told that the stx patch isn't needed anymore

sorry, your patch does not apply correctly to current 2.6.4 ebuild:
