could it be that we need path for cakephp correct?

besides, something goes wrong with permission on mysql after deploy, i need to recreate them after the container is running: mysql -uroot -e "grant all on zm.* to 'zmuser'@localhost identified by 'zmpass';"

[tobbenb]

This container isn't released yet and I'm not sure it will be either.

[nic0dk]

@tobbenb thx for the reply. Hmm I build the currently ZM from this container? What did I wrong ?

[tobbenb]

I don't know. I haven't made this container, so can't help.

We are planning on changing massive amounts of logic for this to go live, your help with testing would be appreciated:
