Ok, I consider myself pretty technical, but not a UNIX master, and I've used NT enough to know about services, etc. But I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get zope running as a service without manually starting it from start.bat. Could someone please post somewhere a "zope for dummies" description of getting zope running as a service on NT. Here's what I do: I downloaded zope 1.10.2 I unzipped and ran the installer. It works fine to the point where it wants me to choose between running zope alone or as a service. I've tried it "both ways" and although I can get zope running fine by manually starting it from start.bat, and I make the zope service start automatically, it will not work as a service! I dont have any other web server on this machine and dont really care which server I use. I had assumed that ZopeHTTPServer would run as the service, but it doesnt work... Is there just a minimal way to get zope going on it's own? I know the ip address etc. of my system, but that doesnt seem to be the issue. I wouldnt even mind if in the install you had an option for "install default web server" so that zope can piggy back on it. Does it have something to do with setting permissions to the var directory? All I'm basically looking for is sort of a recipe style instruction on how to get it up and running. (With no handwaving like "now configure your system to run the zope.exe". Assume I'm a total idiot... Which I'm not, but I'm still having problems. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Andrew Wooldridge - Opinions expressed are my own - - andreww@netscape.com - http://people.netscape.com/andreww/ - ICQ: 6345881 - Find It at http://dmoz.org - -------------------------------------------------------------------------
