Win IE to access zope
hi, this is a newbie question. System: Window NT4.0, IE5.0 Zope binary was downloaded just last week. Instatllation was fine. start.bat can start up the zope. The message shows: ZServer HTTP, FTP, PCGI are running. However, in IE5.0, the URL http://localhost:8080 results in "the web page you requested is not available offline". I must have missed some simple thing. Any idea ? thanks, HP
when you installed what name did you gove your website (the folder name under which your Zope stuff is located)... if it is localhost then it should be working, if not replace localhost with the site name. -AM HP Wei wrote:

Not so. localhost will work regardless of the site name you gave it. the "host" identifies the computer, not the server's name. Maybe Wei needs to uncomment the line for localhost in the "hosts" file - located in the Windows or Winnt directory. Before trying that, try using 127.0.0.1. If that connects, change the hosts file. In not, make sure you are working on-line (some browsers work off-line by default if you are not hooked up to a network). Cheers, Tom P
You are right. Mozilla and Opera allowed me to do that, but for some reason my IE6 for kicked me out with a not found error(still does, even with 127...) . Havent been able to figure out why. AM Thomas B. Passin wrote:

You ___are___ typing the "http://", aren't you? IE ___must___ have the http://scheme when you use 127.0.0.1 or localhost. Mozilla adds it if you omit it. Don't be lazy, use the full URL! Cheers, Tom P
Aloha,
start.bat can start up the zope. The message shows: ZServer HTTP, FTP, PCGI are running.
However, in IE5.0, the URL http://localhost:8080 results in "the web page you requested is not available offline".
If it's not some bloody annoying 'offline' option in IE, as someone suggested (try another browser, like Mozilla or Opera)... What type of internet connection(s) do you have configured? If you are using a dialup connection (and haven't done anything else to tweak your net config), localhost will *not* be available unless you are actually dialed up (true for Win 9x, anyhow - in NT, ymmv but NT usually needs *more* manual config tweaking than 9x). I configured a (non-existent) NIC in the network control panel (bound to TCP/IP) so I could get to localhost without having to be dialed up. If you were dialed up when you tried it, or you have an ethernet card or cable or DSL modem, I dunno...but it's some kind of Win network config issue you'll have to tweak to get to localhost. luck, John S. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
