Has anyone else been attempting to use ZDiscussions in conjunction with SiteAccess?

Here is the problem I am having:

Problem Description: -------------------- When I add discussion item from Virtual Hosted URLs the discussion item adds to discussion but ZDiscussions.children() method returns None for those items. This is not the case for items added via non VirtualHosted URLs, same discussion just different access path.

When I add ZDiscussion Items via VirtualHost the items appear to be there in the /manage screens but yet the children function shows None for each of these thus the ZDiscussion index_html is all messed up.

Upon further investigation the culprit appears to be the ablolute_url function in conjunction with SiteAccess and ZCatalog. The entries in ZCatalog show: /feedback/1999-12-16/film.html for the "broken" entries done via VirtualHost /city/feedback/1999-12-16/film.html for the functional entries

Upon still fruther investigation this problems also accures in the ZCache product when used under SiteAccess.

Does anyone have any ideas? I really am trying to make this work.

When I rewrite URL's from Apache into Zope and use ZCatalog, I have to prepend "&dtml-SCRIPT_NAME;/" to the absolute_url() path to get it to work (see the HowTo at http://www.zope.org/Members/tseaver/catalog_under_apache). I don't know exactly how this will work with the SiteAccess stuff, but I would guess that you will need to use something like it. -- ========================================================= Tres Seaver tseaver@palladion.com 713-523-6582 Palladion Software http://www.palladion.com
