Hi Eddie, This error about the ‘port program’ is caused by running then beam.smp (erlang) as root user.
There is an explanation here: https://github.com/aeternity/aeternity/wiki/Troubleshooting#node-wont-start-with-privileged-user <https://github.com/aeternity/aeternity/wiki/Troubleshooting#node-wont-start-with-privileged-user> In short: try to run zotonic as a “normal” user, and not as root.
