Since I want to use apache so I can introduce a rewrite, I tried downloading Zap.
I was first unimpressed by the fact that the distribution tarball contains several temporary editor files (#*# and *~)...
Yes this was many moons ago during my first explorations of emacs and CVS. Used to use 'ed' and the floppy system of revision control.
The instructions in README.txt state:
Be sure to run the './install' script that comes with Zope so that it creates a 'Zope.cgi' file in the top level directory.
However, I can't find this install script anywhere.
There is an 'install' script in the main Zope directory in the 1.10.2 release (you didn't mention what version of Zope you were trying). 1.10.2 is the released intended to be used with Zap. I'm not so sure about the 2.0.0a1 release, but Zap has not been tested or even looked at for 2.0.0a1 yet. We problaby won't throw any resources into making Zap work with 2.0.0 until it goes final, the idea being 1) we're busy writing 2.0.0, and 2) if your courageous enough to run alpha software then you know what your doing. In fact, I just set up a 1.10.2 release with Zap and it took just a few commands: [michel@spike Zap]$ zcat Zope-1.10.2-linux2-x86.tgz | tar xvf - [michel@spike Zap]$ mv Zope-1.10.2-linux2-x86 training [michel@spike Zap]$ cd training/ [michel@spike Zap]$ ./install [michel@spike training]$ zcat Zap-1.1.0-linux2-x86.tgz | tar xvf - [michel@spike Zap]$ cd Zap/ [michel@spike Zap]$ emacs conf/zap.conf customize to suite... [michel@spike Zap]$ ./startzap Apache started successfully. All good. -Michel
