hello, i'm struggling with a zope install. trying to use zserver with pcgi on top of apache 1.3.6 (mod_rewrite compiled in, the rewrite rule put into httpd.conf). it's zope 2.0.0 and python 1.5.2 i get the infamous temporarily unavailable message, which comments: Error parsing pcgi info file pcgi-wrapper-version 2.0a5 if i run python pcgifile.py Zope.cgi i get jon@w1:/web/zope# python pcgifile.py Zope.cgi PCGI_SOCKET_FILE write permission error: /web/zope/var/pcgi.soc the files look like so: jon@w1:/web/zope# ls -al var/ total 160 drwxrwxrwx 3 zopesrv nobody 512 Sep 11 04:12 . drwxr-xr-x 10 zopesrv nobody 512 Sep 11 04:16 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 zopesrv nobody 84 Mar 26 16:44 .cvsignore -rw------- 1 zopesrv nobody 78463 Sep 11 02:18 Data.fs -rw-r--r-- 1 zopesrv nobody 76750 Jun 23 19:03 Data.fs.in -rw-r--r-- 1 zopesrv nobody 5 Sep 11 04:16 Data.fs.lock -rw-r--r-- 1 zopesrv nobody 0 Sep 11 02:28 Data.fs.tmp -rw-r--r-- 1 zopesrv nobody 0 Sep 11 02:18 Z2.log -rw-rw-rw- 1 zopesrv nobody 11 Sep 11 04:16 Z2.pid drwxr-xr-x 3 zopesrv nobody 512 Sep 11 02:18 gadfly -rw-r--r-- 1 zopesrv nobody 0 Sep 11 02:45 pcgi.log -rw-r--r-- 1 zopesrv nobody 5 Sep 11 04:16 pcgi.pid srwxrwxrwx 1 root nobody 0 Sep 11 04:12 pcgi.soc -rw-r--r-- 1 zopesrv nobody 5 Sep 11 04:16 zProcessManager.pid jon@w1:/web/zope# yes, i created a user and called him zopesrv and put him in the same group as nobody. figured this would ease apache/zope permissions problems. i'm running the start and stop scripts as root - it seems like zope creates the pcgi.soc file upon a connection. if it's root owned and s777, why am i getting permissions errors on it? here's my Zope.cgi: jon@w1:/web/zope# more Zope.cgi #!/web/zope/pcgi/pcgi-wrapper PCGI_NAME=Zope PCGI_PORT=8079 PCGI_MODULE_PATH=/web/zope/lib/python/Main.py PCGI_PUBLISHER=/web/zope/pcgi/pcgi_publisher.py PCGI_EXE=/usr/bin/python PCGI_SOCKET_FILE=/web/zope/var/pcgi.soc PCGI_PID_FILE=/web/zope/var/pcgi.pid PCGI_ERROR_LOG=/web/zope/var/pcgi.log PCGI_DISPLAY_ERRORS=1 BOBO_REALM=/web/zope/Zope.cgi BOBO_DEBUG_MODE=1 INSTANCE_HOME=/web/zope do i need the PCGI_PORT ? what's the deal with PCGI_MODULE_PATH ? it defaulted to /web/zope/lib/python/Zope but the pcgifile.py didn't like that. i changed it to Main.py because i saw a few other posters do that in the list archives. any advice would be appreciated greatly thanks -jon -- Jonathan Nathan Web Systems Engineer, CAIS Internet jon@cais.net
