It deleted the most important parts of my Zope installations (which are backed up) but now I can't install Zope. It throws strange errors. What could have happened? How do I troubleshoot this?

Even better might be to know what commands you issued and the output of your failed backup, which might let on what is actually wrong, since simple pax/tar/dump operations rarely (never) go "haywire" for _no_ reason. At a guess, you still have zope listed in /var/db/pkg and need to make deinstall or pkg_delete before you can reinstall it. -- --
