To change the port number in Zope is way simple, and whether there aren't app scripts calling explicitly urls with its current port, everything will work fine. Provided Zope was installed using defaults, you just find the "z2.py" in the Zope installation folder, and edit the line "HTTP_PORT=8080" to the port number that you want. Then you kill Zope, and restart it using /start & Ausum ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marc Scheib" <marc@mindbomb.de> To: <zope@zope.org> Sent: Tuesday, July 06, 2004 5:41 PM Subject: [Zope] Newbie needs help
Hi Experts,
sorry for bothering you with my you with my question - I have read only rough pieces of the Zope documentation, but my problem affects Zope only in a very limited context:
I am responsible to prepare a server for the (academic) presentation of an internet-application running on a tomcat servlet container. One of the included frameworks (the Open Source Flash-Remoting Service 'OpenAMF') is still in a very early development state, and I could not persuade it to function properly on a port different to 8080, Tomcats default port.
Unfortunately there is another Web-application deployed to this server (by another academic group, which is currently unavailable): Zope has currently the port 8080 tied to its services.
Since I do not know anything about the Zope applications architecture or even installation I am asking you for advice on how to disable Zopes service temporarily.
I could imagine to 'simply' change the Zope port for the next two weeks, but i guess for an expert arise even more and surely more intelligent ideas.
My ideal solution would limit changes to comments on one or two lines of code in a 'reusable' manner. Of course I could sudo kill zope-*.py and change tomcats config towards 8080, but that way I had to screw around with obfuscated bash.sh scripts. Isn't there a way that is far more obvious to roll back for the Zope-teams administrator after my presentation?
Again sorry for not studying the documentation extensively.. I hope very much you have a recommendation for me.
Thank you in advance, Marc Scheib
