Sukhwinder Singh asked the Zope mailinglist about the following:

With out-of-the-box Zope user-folders all users except the
emergency-users are stored in the ZODB.

You will have to create either an inituser or an emergency user and
restart zope.. Then you should be able to log in.
Make sure the acess/inituser file is placed in the right directory.
Beware of possible problems from naming the emergency users with the
same name as an already existing user in the ZODB. Make something
unique.
