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

In short: try to run zotonic as a “normal” user, and not as root.

Cheers, Marc
