- Authentication - users don't work at all!
Hey Zopers - (ehw, that doesn't sound good - what should the collective noun for "those who hack Zope" be?) Anyway - I've just installed 1.9.0 on my Linux box, pawed through some of the docs and examples and am very impressed! We're just in the beginning phases of coding up a Cold Fusion based web/database app, and I'm hoping to do some parallel development under Zope, then cut over to that when everyone sees how much cooler^W more maintainable the Zope version is. My problem right now - I can't get anyone except the "Superuser" and the anonymous role to authenticate! Just like Phil Harris's problem with IIS, but I'm using the ZopeHTTPServer directly (I figured that would be the least hassle) What I've done: Connect as the superuser Go to the management screen Open the User Folder object Add users with 'Manager' role (check that password many many times) Shut down browser/restart (aside: anyone know how to get Netscape to forget it's authentication info without shutting down?) Try connecting again as user get password dialog: "Username for 'Main' at server 'wallace:9673':" And if fails: (logs from [Zopedir]var/server.errors): wallace.ece.rice.edu - - [21/Jan/1999 12:32:10] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 200 - wallace.ece.rice.edu - - [21/Jan/1999 12:32:15] "GET /manage HTTP/1.0" 401 - wallace.ece.rice.edu - - [21/Jan/1999 12:33:14] "GET /manage HTTP/1.0" 401 - wallace.ece.rice.edu - - [21/Jan/1999 12:33:26] "GET /manage HTTP/1.0" 401 - wallace.ece.rice.edu - - [21/Jan/1999 12:33:32] "GET /manage HTTP/1.0" 401 - wallace.ece.rice.edu - - [21/Jan/1999 12:33:47] "GET /manage HTTP/1.0" 401 - wallace.ece.rice.edu - - [21/Jan/1999 12:33:57] "GET /manage HTTP/1.0" 401 - Anyone?

It was time for me to get ANY user authentication working, and I've now done it. Since I couldn't get any of the various authentications to work, even the most basic via ZopeHHTPServer, I figured I must be getting something quite basic wrong - so I poked around and came up with me misunderstanding the manage_users role interface! I was creating users with _no_ roles, since I didn't realize I was looking at multi-select list that required roles to be highlighted. Silly me, everything's hunky-dory now. Ross -- Ross J.
