you did NOT create the zope instance as user ofer! did you?
there is nothing to do as user root except creating a user account.
as you do it in your own account (i assume) then ther is nothing
to be done for root.

Thank you robert
first in the last line you wrote the command is zopectl fg
now I understand that you mean system user name zope
I want to install it on the user ofer and this is what I get now after
running zopectl fg

can you please summery what to do as user and what action to do as root?
exactly!
I sugest the following:
- remove what you have done so far
- go to yast, create a user zope
- switch to this user
- install zope like this:
wget http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.9.3/Zope-2.9.3.tgz
tar xvfz Zope-2.9.3.tgz
mv Zope-2.9.3 Zope-2.9.3-src
cd Zope-2.9.3-src
./configure --prefix=../Zope-2.9.3
make
make install
- cd to zopes user directory
- mkdir instances #will contain all zope instances
- ln -s Zope-2.9.3 Zope-2.9 # so you can update easily
- Zope-2.9/bin/makezopeinstance.py -d instances/MYFIRSTINSTANCE -u
admin:admin
- edit the file ~/instances/MYFIRSTINSTANCE/etc/zope.conf to suite your
whishes
- start zope with ~/instances/MYFIRSTINSTANCE/bin/zopectrl fg

what david says is correct.
furthermore you must (as the error suggests) add the user as which the
zope process should run as to the zope config.
open the /yourInstance/etc/zope.conf in an editor and look for
"effective-user".
this you set to the name of the user as which you start zope.
if you allways start zope as this user, the variable can be left unset.
however if you want to start zope as root
(eg in the start up process of your computer) then it MUST be set.
the reason for this is, that for security reason, zope is not allowed
to
run as user root.
if started by user root, the zope.conf is consulted and the process
handed over to the effective user.
hence the need for this user to have rw permissions.

Hi
I am trying to install Zope 2.9.3 or 2.9.1 on Suse 10.1 and this is
what
I
get:
error: must supply either home or prefix/exec-prefix -- not both
make: *** [install] Error 1
Any ideas what to do?
Please try again with a Python source build. Usually we don't care
much
about system Python installation that are often broken in different
ways.

Maybe this can help?
This is from either Plope or Plone site (i think I snipped it long
ago):
<<
If you are running everything as root, you will get an instance that
cannot be started, because a different effective user id is required
for it to change to. Even if you create an account after the fact,
that user cannot start zope because it doesn't have access to any of
the instance files.
The best way to run mkzopeinstance is to first su to another user (su
zope) and then run mkzopeinstance.py. The zope user must have write
access to create the directory.
EFFECTIVE-USER
After the instance is created, edit "effective-user zope" into the
etc/zope.conf, so if you start it as root later it should su itself to
the non-root user.
