Unfortunately you won't get as good answers sending email to info@digicool.com. This subject comes up repeatedly on the main zope@zope.org list and the folks there have pretty much seen it all, so I suggest sending your message there.
Apache, and mod_rewrite in particular, can be an *extreme* bear to configure. For instance the Apache that shipped with RedHat 5.2 silently failed to load the Apache mod_rewrite module, which was supplied as a dynamically linked extension. As soon as it was statically compiled in, it worked fine.

Hello,
We've been thorugh a number of stumbling blocks while attepting to get Zope to run with Apache.
We are using Zope2.0.0b3 which we have installed under /usr/local.
On one server we are unable to login when we execute the http:/server/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/manage script. We have tried letting Zope set the password when it installs and we have tried setting our own password.
In either case, when we type in the super user id and the password, we keep getting permission denied. We have checked permissions on directories in the Zope directory.
We added the authorization pass through information in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf based on the documentation. And we *believe* that is is correct. -- we used the rewriteengine scheme in httpd.conf rather than recompile Apache.
--------
We installed the same zope version on one web server. There we have repeatedly checked and double checked the apache *.conf files. They (except for the development virtual servers) are the same as the other conf files.
On one machine we get an error message saying that the resource we are trying to get is unavailable. We suspected permissions on the files and directories under Zope, but they seem ok.
On both machines, we cd into the Zope directory run ./start (we initially thought that that was strictly for running ZServer, but found that it got us p ast the temporarily unavailable message. So we are asusming that we need to run this.
Then we try accessing the cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/manage script as mentioned earlier.
Thanks for the help
