I currently have a site that uses numerous perl cgi scripts....I have successfully managed to transfer all the static pages to Zope...however, what about CGI scripts? Does Zope support them?
Zope does not provide a CGI environment.
Can I use the Zserver with these scripts or should I use the other server (with Apache)?
Use Apache.
Also, from the Zope experts out there, I need your opinion. I am considering using Zope for my existing web site (it's fairly large) ...however, I would still like to continue to use perl/cgi, (have a lot of time invested in my already existing scripts), and not use much Python (no flames please...haha). I like the graphical capabilities of Zope, and the ability to assign roles to certain users...but I don't know if this is worth switching, especially if I am going to continue to use perl/cgi (if that's even possible)...any suggestions out there?
Keep the cgi scripts in Apache, migrate to Zope at your leisure. http://www.zope.org/Members/michel/HowTos/ApacheRewriting -Michel
