Before I start my tale of woe, I've been all over zope.org and the mailing list archives, but I may have missed something. Please borrow my clue-by-four to whack me over the head with if I did. :-) Solaris 8, Apache 1.3.12 (Oracle's, but it really doesn't matter), Zope 2.4.1 (binary Solaris distro), mod_fastcgi 2.2.10 compiled as a DSO. The following is included into my httpd.conf: ---- LoadModule fastcgi_module /oracle/local/Apache/libexec/mod_fastcgi.so AddModule mod_fastcgi.c RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^/(.*) /Zope/$1 [PT] FastCgiIpcDir /tmp FastCgiExternalServer /oracle/product/8i/Apache/Apache/htdocs/Zope \ -socket zope.soc -pass-header Authorization <Location /Zope> Options ExecCGI SetHandler fastcgi-script </Location> ---- And, of course, z2.py gets the -F /tmp/zope.soc flag. Everything is swell with the exception of one teeny tiny problem. "Zope" keeps finding its way into the URI when I use absolute_url. This is a single server and I want Zope handling the site root. I have shuffled directives around, tried the duplicate RewriteRule that I saw on one howto... no effect. (Well, some of my shuffling broke it totally.) :-) I know of the empty folder acq workaround (empty folder called "Zope" into the root), but there must be a way to make this work without such hackery... -- Matt Behrens <matt.behrens@kohler.com> System Analyst, Baker Furniture
