Ok, found the start Icon and clicked it.
This should have been "start.bat", which by default would be in c:\program files\website. This starts the *local* zope server.
Got a Dos box. It seemed to do nothing.
That's right - it's not very talkative. It just tells you what's happening in a scrolling console window...
Then I clicked the link I was given below. I got messages that said a new Zope disk had been detected.
Not sure whether this message was in the /browser/ or /console/ (DOS box)?
It seemed that I was talking to a Zope program somewhere and it was t rying to assign me a spot. I think the word socket came up a few times. Each time there was a consecutive number, 8020, 8021,8022 ect.
The Zope server runs on your local box.
I was expecting a screen from a web page like I had seen on a tutorial. Unfortunately I cannot find that tutorial now.
You should get a logon at the /manage URL which takes you to the Zope management screens - which are indeed web pages.
Is this something I operate from a dos box?
No - the DOS box is purely informational...
Or should I get a web page when I click the link below?
Yes, the links should give web pages. If not, what do you see? Regards, PhilK
