Hello, I've a problem with Zope 1.0.9 (source distribution) with authentication. I'am using Apache 1.2.6 from a RedHat 5.1 distribution with the standard configuration files plus the the rewrite Rule in httpd.conf : RewriteEngine on RewriteLog /etc/httpd/logs/rewrite.log RewriteLogLevel 9 RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*) RewriteRule ^/Zope/(.*) /home/httpd/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/$1 [e=HTTP_CGI_AUTHORIZATION:%1,t=application/x-httpd-cgi,l] For testing, i've installed Zope under the /home/httpd/Zope-1.9.0-src and a link with /home/hhtpd/Zope.lnk Zope.cgi is in the cgi-bin directory The URL //mymachine/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi gives the welcome page The URL //mymachine/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/manage asks the superuser name and the password but it faills The URL //mymachine/Zope/manage asks the superuser name and the password but it faills. The log for the rewrite rule seems to be correct (and it works...) httpd runs as nobody. access file is owned by nobody with read and write access. ls-l var gives : total 26 -rw-rw-rw- 1 nobody nobody 10780 Dec 30 17:22 Data.bbb -rw-rw-rw- 1 nobody nobody 7789 Dec 30 17:11 Data.bbb.in -rw-r--r-- 1 nobody nobody 9 Dec 30 17:22 Data.bbb.trans drwxrwxrwx 3 nobody nobody 1024 Dec 30 17:21 gadfly -rw-rw-rw- 1 nobody nobody 3135 Dec 30 17:21 pcgi.log -rw-rw-rw- 1 nobody nobody 4 Dec 30 17:22 pcgi.pid srwxrwxrwx 1 nobody nobody 0 Dec 30 17:22 pcgi.soc ls -l access gives : -rwxrw-rw- 1 nobody nobody 16 Dec 30 18:12 access Thank you Ronan BARZIC barzic@worldnet.fr
