I am relatively new to Zope, and I am working on a personal project at home on my Win98 box. I am just now getting the "zen" of Zope as everyone refers to it, and am building a true functional application. So now that I am getting comfortable with Zope, here is my question. I am wondering if I can build my site/application on my Win98 box at home, export it out and then import it into another Zope installation running on another operating system (either BSDI or Linux). I am thinking I will have to buy my own server so that I can let Zope run as the server itself -- our servers up here all run Apache and I doubt our systems administrator up here would want to take the time and effort required to get that running properly (plus those are production servers, not really for employee projects!). Is it possible and/or recommended to build a site/application on one installation and import it into another? Or should I just go ahead and by a box, put Linux on it, and proceed to build it on that platform? My concern is spending a lot of time building out the site on my home box and then finding a show-stopping hitch in the migration to another platform/installation. Anyone who has had any experience with migrating Zope applications to other platforms/installation please reply so that I can make an informed decision as to how to proceed. And also is there any reason to use Apache instead of letting Zope run as the server itself -- this will be on my own server so I doubt there will be much else on the box then my personal project and my home site (two virtual domains). Thanks in advance.
