(login problem)
More suggestions & questions:
* Do you
have some sort of proxy system installed?
* can you telnet to zope? "telnet
127.0.0.1 8080"
* what's the output from "netstat -n -a"?
* what's the
output from "ipconfig /all"?
* can you ping yourself? "ping 127.0.0.1"
*
is the TCP stack installed?
* is the computer plugged in and turned on?
:-)
Now that I wrote those out, you probably should try them in reverse
order...
It sounds like you have basic networking issues. Unfortunately,
you've got
them under '98 which means most of us will wince and tell you to
upgrade to
NT/2000/XP/Linux, which I know you probably don't want to hear. To
be
honest, I'm not even sure if netstat and ipconfig are available under
'98.
I wish I could be more help. Of course, I wish Microsoft never
reased '98,
too.

Heeeeeeeeeeeeelp (login problem)
Hi again,
First of all I'd
like to thank those who've been trying to help me.
Unfortunately it hasn't
been successfull so far. So, here's an update on the
current status. Maybe
you'll find more info to help me out. :-)
When I wrote my
first mail (see below) this was how START.BAT looked like:
Trying offline
with no NIC installed, see attachment: no_nic_offline.txt
Trying online with
no NIC installed, see attachtment: no_nic_online.txt
And my hosts.sam file
looked like this (still does), see attachment:
hosts.txt
After your
tips I tried several but --as you already understood-- without
success. So, I
got myself a NIC and installed it. It was recognized by Win98
and drivers
were installed. Now I tried to login offline again but unluckily
again
without success. This is how START.BAT looked
like:
with_nic_offline.txt
Other settings etc.:
Windows 98
SE
Computername: POPEYE
Browser: Ms Internet Explorer 4.5
Zope version:
2.5.1
Zope superuser: StJohnHospital
NB: Everytime I tried to login, I
used all of the following addresses:
http://localhost:8080/manage
http://popeye:8080/manage
http://127.0.0.1:8080/manage
http://StJohnHospital:8080/manage
Hopefully this leads to solving my problem!
Many
thanks!

[Zope] Heeeeeeeeeeeeelp (login problem)
Hi Zope-wizards,
As
you can see in my subject: I'm getting quite frustrated by some stupid
error
when I'm trying to login to my Zope server. (Yep, I'm a
newbie...)
Situation
I'm going to create a website to gather funds for
a hospital in Ghana (St.
John of God Hospital in Duayaw Nkwanta).
To get
an idea about the situation:
http://www.zwo.nhl.nl/hbov/buitenlandstage/ghana.html (Dutch & English).
Website
I want to do this
with Zope & Python. I want people to be able to do online
donations,
retrieve information about the project, maybe send a mailinglist
to keep them
up to date and there are many more plans. So: I've got a lot
to
learn...
Learn & develop @ work & @ home
In order to
learn as quickly as possible I tried to install Zope at work and
at home (of
course during my break ;-) ). At work (Win2000 Prof.),
everything functions
OK. I've done the tutorial and I'm now working myself
through the ZopeBook.
So far so good, but...
My problem
At home I've installed Zope (2.5.1)
on my computer (Win98). No errors
occured during installation. So, just like
at work I tried to login to Zope
for the first time, but...
When I start
the START.BAT, my computer starts a dial-in to my
internetprovider! It seems
this occurs when START.BAT is trying to retrieve
my hostname. When START.BAT
is finished, I type in...
http://127.0.0.1:8080/manage (START.BAT comes up with 127.0.0.1 as localhost
and 8080
as port)
http://popeye:8080/manage
or http://popeye:8021/manage
(popeye is the
computername in my Win98 network-settings and START.BAT comes
up with popeye
as localhost for port 8021)
http://localhost:8080/manage (should always work, right? Not!)
http://stjohnhospital:8080/manage (stjohnhospital is the superuser I
installed Zope
with)
... but none of them works!!!
All that happens is that my browser
(MsIE) when I'm offline shows me that
the page cannot be found and when I'm
online it shows me either "server
error" or "page not found".
>:-((
NB: It doesn't matter wether I login to my internprovider or
not. I'm quite
sure it's nonesense to be online in order to login to a local
Zope-server,
but hey, I've tried everything possible (as far as I know). I
also tried to
un- and reinstall Zope, but that didn't work
either. :-(
So please, help me out here!!! (In a short while
I've got some days off and
I want to do some work for the website at home.)
Not only me, but also the
people we're trying to help will be very
gratefull! ;-))
Best regards,
Yvon
