Your problem is that /opt/zenoss is not writeable by the user you are current logged in as. You can make it writeable by your current user by running these commands (as root):

chown -R <youruser> /opt/zenoss

PS - youruser should probably be "zenoss"

All,

I am having some minor problems with the questions that it asks me during the install.sh process. I'm not quite sure how to enter the following questions to install:

1. MySQL server hostname [localhost]: (127.0.0.1 or IP of machine: 8080)
2.  MySQL server root username [root]: ("root"?)
3.  MySQL server root password []: (set in init file)
4.  MySQL event database name [events]: (create one? use "events")
5. MySQL username for Zenoss events database [zenoss]: (use "zenoss"?)
6.  MySQL password for zenoss [zenoss]: (figure this to be root user)

after I provide this information, probably incorrect, I get an error stating

mkdir: cannot create directory 'build': Permission denied
make: *** [testZenHome] Error 1
unable to build zenoss and prerequisites, see zenbuild.log


Where am I likely goofing this up?
