I think you're right. Could you do us a favor:
1) Write up all your impressions about how the install docs could be improved.
2) Specifically highlight the area that is incorrect.
Hmm... I also set up Zope using pcgi access. I'm using ZServer, but the apache setup should be the same. I did not encounter any of the above problems. There was just one problem: I had played around with several different methods of Access to Zope. At one time I had an entry in srm.conf saying ScriptAlias /Zope/ /usr/local/Zope-1.10.2/Zope.cgi This worked seamlessly if I let the apache server do the authentification (with appropriate entries in access.conf). But when I switched to Zope's own authentication, I had to REMOVE all ScriptAlias lines !!! And replace them with a simple RewriteRule in httpd.conf: RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*) RewriteRule ^/Zope/(.*) /usr/local/Zope-1.10.2/Zope.cgi/$1 [e=HTTP_CGI_AUTHORIZATION:%1,t=application/x-httpd-cgi,l] (straight from the Doc). I have no problems with this setup. The important thing is: No ScriptAlias if you have a rewrite rule !! (I found this using the log feature of mod_rewrite with a fairly high log-level). I hope, this is helpful :-) Stefan.
