Our company developed sites for our clients using Zope. We placed them on our server. Now every user has to start his own Zope by running 'start' script. So there are many Zope processes running in our server now. Luckily, there are still not many clients :). But I think that is a bad way for running Zope webhosting. So, is there anyone here could tutor or show me how to set up Zope Webhosting better? Thanks. -mico-
There are several different ways (VHM with apache mod_rewrite / mod_proxy, pound etc) of pointing different virtual domains at different Sub-levels of your Zope object tree. You could create a folder for each customer in the Zope root and an acl_users for each customer in their respective folder. The folders are then setup to be the root of their respective sites. http://virtualdomain/manage will work for your customers, but only for their content. (I recommend allowing only https://virtualdomain/manage though :-) You may want to try asking the people at http://www.freezope.org/ how they do it, as they manage lots of sites/customers... The answer may not be free though :( Adam On Wed, 2003-01-08 at 18:44, Mico Siahaan wrote:

do all your clients really need their own zope instances? some (many?) may not and in these cases you can consolidate those clients onto one zope instance which means more admin work for you but less work for your clients and less memory usage. <--> george donnelly - http://zettai.net/ - "We Love Newbies" :) Zope Hosting - Dynamic Website Design - Search Engine Promotion Yahoo, AIM: zettainet - ICQ: 51907738 - e:george@zettai.net
