Hello Zope experts, Hope you can lend a hand. I've been trying out Zope on some Linux systems and all is well there, but I'm hitting a roadblock on a FreeBSD 2.2.7 system. Here's what I've done: I grab Python 1.5.2 and install it: $ gunzip -c py152.tgz | tar xvf - $ cd Python-1.5.2 $ ./configure --with-thread $ make $ make test # 43 tests OK. 18 tests skipped. $ make install # as root Then I grab Zope 2.0.0 source distribution and unpack it: $ gunzip -c Zope-2.0.0-src.tgz | tar xvf - $ cd Zope-2.0.0-src After consulting doc/INSTALL.txt, I decide I want to try Zope using ZServer, so: $ python wo_pcgi.py I take note of the superuser name and password, and then... $ ./start ------ 1999-09-14T06:00:48 PROBLEM(100) ZServer Computing default hostname ------ 1999-09-14T06:00:48 INFO(0) ZServer Medusa (V1.10) started at Mon Sep 13 23:00:48 1999 Hostname: foo.example.com Port:8080 ------ 1999-09-14T06:00:48 INFO(0) ZServer FTP server started at Mon Sep 13 23:00:48 1999 Authorizer:None Hostname: foo.example.com Port: 8021 ------ 1999-09-14T06:00:48 INFO(0) ZServer Monitor Server (V1.5) started on port 8099 ...and it waits there. (Names have been changed to protect the server.) This looks good. It tells me an HTTP server (Medusa) is listening on port 8080. So I open another window and try to connect a client to that server: $ lynx http://localhost:8080/ Lynx eventually replies: "HTTP request sent; waiting for response." and waits... and waits... and waits. If I try to connect lynx to another port (where there is no server), I quickly get the message "Alert!: Unable to connect to remote host." So, it looks like Lynx is able to connect to Medusa. However, Medusa never sends back any response. The first window, where ZServer wrote its startup messages to stderr, also never says anything. So what's wrong? How can I diagnose the trouble? Is there a log file being written anywhere which might be recording a clue as to what to try next? Has anyone had similar experience on a FreeBSD system with Zope? Thanks for whatever help you can provide. -- | Don Porter dgporter@erols.com | | "Some days you just can't get rid of a bomb!" | | -- Adam West as BATMAN | |______________________________________________________________________|
