Hello I've experienced this same exact issue, try this to confirm it was the same issue:

Shell 1:
tail -f /var/log/syslog

Shell 2:
su zenoss
zeneventd start

Then see if in shell 1 there are python segfaults. If there are, dig deeper and you'll find that the version of libc you're using is too old or too new. Which version of Debian is this on 6.x

Hydruid.. I've been on your blog. Thanks for that! Great page.

I do get a Seg Fault at the end. I am on Debian 6, using Wheezy for apt updates though.

"ldd --version" returns 2.13-38.

Thank you for the kind words!

Well that version should be compatible and it's been several months since I did any testing on 6.x. I ended up building from source and creating a .DEB on Ubuntu 12.04 (ldd (Ubuntu EGLIBC 2.15-0ubuntu10.5) 2.15), then deploying that to Debian without too many issues.

You'll also notice when you try to update the libc libraries everything else will be broken :)

Yeah.. I'm hesitant to upgrade for that reason, but maybe I just need to go ahead and install Debian 7.

Thanks for the info Hydruid.
