Goddamn pcgi - problems with authentication... no ZSyncer or other fun tidbits
This is just a rant about how I tried to save some money and got a hosting from anon Zope hosting company - that offered cgi's and allowed me to run Zope behind apache. First of all I had terrible problems with the http basic auth, since it did not work at all. I mean not at all. I thougth I was so clever when I uploaded an old Data.fs that had cookie crumbler set so I could authenticate myself with cookies via form. Yeah. Well. Everything is sweet - expect that I can't do anything really fun. Like upload content to my site via webdav, since I have only that pcgi connection or ftp to the server - but not to the Zope itself. Then as a last thing I tried to use ZSyncer to upload content from my own machine to the hosted Zope but no. The same authentication problem bites me again. I feel like kicking myself. Saving money in hosting also ties my hands from doing advanced and fun things that I would have liked to do. Damn me. Damn Apache. Damn pcgi. ,-) If anyone has any ideas how to get over that pcgi-problem, that would be appreciated. Otherwise - remember that the Zope hosting costs a little bit more for a reason. -huima
