I may just have the answer, after installing Zope 2.0.0a1 on RedHat 5.2, Python 1.5.2 I had to make a slight adjustment to the RewriteRule :- From: RewriteRule ^/Zope/(.*) /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/$1 [e=HTTP_CGI_AUTHORIZATION:%1,t=application/x-httpd-cgi,l] To: RewriteRule ^/Zope(.*) /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi$1 [e=HTTP_CGI_AUTHORIZATION:%1,t=application/x-httpd-cgi,l] Notice the lack of '/' on both sides of the rule. This was done because when Zope was looking for certain parts of it's system, it was not finding, update screens, management interfaces etc. This seems to have cured it for the moment and all is now working great 8^).

It's very frustrating reading about the great things Zope can do and not being able to get off the ground with it. I thought about getting a binary of 1.x.x instead, but I prefer to have control of what goes where on my system, so I guess I'll have to give up for now.
Don't give up yet. When you compiled, did you use w_pcgi or wo_pcgi ?
Here is a link to the instructions that I used: http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-May/004670.html
Also, did you install the RPMs for Python 1.5.2, or did you compile it yourself?
Cheers,
Michael Bernstein.
