Their thanks for the resource - I want to check it out. Maybe you could answer this for me and other irc newbies, since I cannot find an answer elsewhere: All EFNet servers I've tried require me to be running "identd". Is there one which doesn't ? It's not on my default redhat system and I won't install it if I don't have to. -Simon

Access control problems.
by Paolo Bizzarri 19 Mar '99

19 Mar '99

Hi everybody, I am in a FAQish problem. I am using ZopeHTTPServer for setting up a complex intranet site. However, access control do not seem to work at all. Either I can build a public site (which is viewable by everybody), or I have to use SuperUser passwd to enter in a private site. I would like to allow user A to see folder X but not folder Y, and so on. I have created users, assigned roles, but it seems not to work. BTW, cut & paste do not seem to work at all. Any suggestions ? Thanks. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- | Paolo Bizzarri, I3 Icube Srl, Via Ridolfi 15, 56100 Pisa, Italy | | Email: p.bizzarri(a)icube.it WWW: www.icube.it | | Tel: 050 97 02 07 Fax: 050 36 31 588 | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------| | Red Hat Support Partner & Samba Consultant | -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Zope with Nestcape Enterprise Server 3.51 - Help
by Jaime A. Jofre 19 Mar '99

Can anyone tell me how to setup up Zope using PCGI with Netscape Enterprise Server 3.51? I have read WEBSERVER.txt, but it only details Apache. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Jaime

Re: [Zope] Zope install help needed: "Premature end of script header"

The error you get when running Zope.cgi from the command line is a red herring, ignore it? It comes about because SCRIPT_NAME is set by the Web Server and as you aren't running it through such, you will get errors telling you that various ENVVARS do not exist. As to your other problem, hmm, it still sounds as if the var dir is not set correctly, maybe?

Also, and this is important! Don't forget to make sure that the cgi driectory holding Zope.cgi has ExecCGI turned on. As I said this is important, later versions of Apache don't turn it on by default.

Zope install help needed: "Premature end of script header"
by Kevin Teague 19 Mar '99

19 Mar '99

I installed the Zope binary on a linux box, and everything went well. User authentication worked successfully with Apache using the 'REMOTE USER' environment variable. Then I tried to get ZMySQLDA to work, but I couldn't get the Zope Python install to find 'libmysqlclient'. I got a build of Python 1.5.1 to successfully import MySQL. So I decided to reinstall Zope from source, so that I could use my own Python. The source Zope built okay, but when I tried to start Zope through the web browser I got an "Internal Server Error" message from Apache, the error log said I had a "Premature end of script header". I've checked permission on the var dir and user authentication still seems to work fine. I couldn't figure out why I was getting the error, so I tried re-installing the binary distribution of Zope. No luck there either, I get the same "premature end of script header" error message. I've checked the Zope.cgi file, and it seems o.k. Does anyone have any idea why Zope.cgi is failing on me? Is there something I have to do to Apache or Zope if I've removed the Zope folder and then untarred and re-installed a new Zope? Don't know if this'll help, but this is what I get when I run Zope.cgi from the command line: Status: 500 Internal Server Error Bobo-Exception-File: lib/python/ZPublisher/Request.py Content-Type: text/html Bobo-Exception-Type: exceptions.KeyError Bobo-Exception-Value: SCRIPT_NAME Content-Length: 363 Bobo-Exception-Line: 167 <html> <head> <title>exceptions.KeyError</title> </head> <body> Sorry, an error occurred.<p>  </body> Kevin Teague Kevin(a)StudioInfo.com Temporary Nelson address: #6-560 Baker street Phone: 250-354-1845 * Dedicated Fax: 250-354-1890

I'll be snooping around later on once I get into work - I had looked at XMLConfig almost straight away, but had to put it to one side whilst I got to grips with Zope (and Python!) fundamentals. At least I've got somewhere to start from now... again many thanks for this, tone.

You'll want to check out the doc/WEBSERVER.txt file under your Zope directory. Make sure your running a recent enough version of Apache and have mod_rewrite installed. Then, you need to configure rewrite rules so that Apache will pass authentication info through to Zope. Kevin _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?

Tracebacks and feeling pretty dumb <g>
by Tom Jenkins 19 Mar '99

19 Mar '99

Hey folks, Boy I'm feeling mighty dumb, but I just now, after maybe 8 hours of zope stuff (late night after work), discovered where the tracebacks were hiding from me. I searched this list, but never actually saw where they were printed, I finally saw it in the Trinkets Tutorial which I'm sure I read earlier <sigh>. So just in case someone else is out there in the same boat as I was - the tracebacks are comments in the html error page.
