I have suddenly started getting a 'Proxy Error' msg when accessing my Zope site which uses Apache to redirect specific requests to Zope. I can access other virtual hosts running hosted by Apache, and I can get to my Zope site if I specify port 8080, but for some reason just http://www.myzopesite.org/ returns a 500 Proxy Error reason: Host not found Can anyone suggest what is wrong? It would appear to be an Apache error. Can anyone suggest where I look for the source of the problem? -- John

Hi John, Post the settings to the list that you have for the virtual host proxying in Apache's conf file. Then we can see if you have any obvious errors. It should be there where any problems lie. Also, search the list... there are MANY previous posts on this topic. =Paul

Paul, The setting itself is OK. It took me long enough to get it working in the first place, but it was working OK for around a week before I started getting this Proxy Error. Just wonder if I should expect to see the error in some Apache log... Maybe restarting Apache will sort things out. -- John

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This is pretty clear!

Look how you specified the host name in your apache config file. I mean the hostname of the Zope instance. Try to resolve this name with dig, host or even ping. I suspect it does not work due to changes in your DNS or something like that. Just enter the servers you are always dealing with into their /etc/hosts file to avoid problems with DNS (long timeout, disappearing like you experienced) Regards Tino Wildenhain

Not to me it isn't. If you know why then please explain.

It has been working from the time I set it up about a week ago and there have been no changes that I am aware of since.

I don't think host name resolution is the problem here.

Looks a bit ignorant imho. "I dont know what it is but I know it isnt that." "Host not found" is pretty clear. Something was searching for the host and did not find it. Searching hosts in internet is usually not envolving google but DNS. So your DNS seems screwed up and this isnt nessecary local to your server host. Try the tests I suggested above.
