I still think something else was broken, SiteAccess should (and does, as far as I know) stay away from SCRIPT_NAME.
Yep. Environment/CGI variables are left alone by the virtual hosting machinery; only Zope-specific ones are altered.
An example of a virtual hosting setup which won't work with SCRIPT_NAME: Apache on machine www.foo.com proxies requests for /Zope/* to machine z.foo.com:8080. In this case SCRIPT_NAME is blank, and the src of an image on http://www.foo.com/Zope/page constructed with it would resolve to http://www.foo.com/image.gif, rather than http://www.foo.com/Zope/image.gif. This is not a contrived example -- people are doing this.
SCRIPT_NAME will work in simple cases, but BASE1 ought to work in all cases, and using it is a better habit to have in general.
We better file a Collector item on this then, as the current Zope Management Interface uses it still. -- Martijn Pieters | Software Engineer mailto:mj@digicool.com | Digital Creations http://www.digicool.com/ | Creators of Zope http://www.zope.org/ | ZopeStudio: http://www.zope.org/Products/ZopeStudio -----------------------------------------------------
