RE: [Zope] - RE: [Zope] -Zope in an RPM
Jeff Rush:
I don't have PCGI working yet, as there is no standard dir structure for cgi-bin stuff, but the standalone ZopeHTTPServer works ok.
Thanks, Jeff. Zope RPMs are a good way to get people to play with Zope. Digital Creations probably already has some ideas about how they want these built and distributed. Here are some random thoughts/observations. The only necessary C program for PCGI is pcgi-wrapper, which defaults to /usr/local/bin, unless specified otherwise in configure. The current Zope distribution leaves it -- along with everything else -- in the install directory. Here are some possible permutations of Zope RPM's: 1. Built-in Apache 2. Use existing Apache setup 3. No Apache Number 1 will be available in non-RPM format at the end of this week. It will be the quickest way for users to get up to speed with Zope/Apache. Number 2 would be for sites that have existing an Apache server running or for users who don't want to depend upon a pre-built version of Apache in their Zope distribution. As part of #2 RPM configuration, it should check that Apache has been installed and that mod_rewrite has been compiled into it. Number 3 isn't strictly necessary, but it might be less confusing to users who want to download Zope, but don't want to use it with Apache, i.e. just use ZopeHTTPServer. something-for-everyone-ly yr's Jeff Bauer Rubicon, Inc.
