Re: [Zope] Apache? Proxy? PCGI? ZServer?
I've had problems with a Proxy/SiteAccess/GenericUserFolder situation. Specifically, trying to ``/manage'' this site has various problems keeping track of authentication information. Another oddity is occasionally ``manage_workspace '' calls to folders within the SiteRoot end up displaying the folder instead of the manage interface. -Jon "Evan Simpson" <evan@4-am.com> writes:

2) ZServer Behind Apache + Proxy - This is the second fastest and is relatively easy (have done it once). I get my Apache logs, SSL (I think) but It require SiteAcesss product which could (and seems to) conflict with other products/functionality.
Not *too* much, I hope. The only "conflict" which I am certain still exists in v1.0.0 is between virtual hosts trying to access the same ZCatalog.
That said, you shouldn't need SiteAccess for a proxying solution if your *entire* site will be proxied. For example...
ProxyPass / http://zopeserver:8080/
...shouldn't require any adjustments to Zope.

I've seen that too. I see it most often if I first authenticate as one user at some point in the tree and then, in a different part of the tree, try to authenticate as someone else. The browser jams and the status bar flashes various text messages. I haven't looked into it more deeply since its easier to just jam the port number into the url and connect directly to the ZServer.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I went with Apache + Proxy Pass + ZServer. Since the box will only house Zope there is no need for virtual servers and therefore no need for SiteAccess. This allows me to server up other content (static, lets say analog stats) with Apache and away from Zope but also allows Zope to do what Zope does best. It took about 15 minutes to set up and most of that was configuring and figuring out how to shut down and restart Apache (apachectl). I will be doing lots of performance testing and will report that back to the list and or a tip when I am done. Thanks for all your help, JMA

me too, but mostly (only??) with Netscape Communicator 4.7 (WinNT, SP6). With Mozilla M13 i get a new login dialog, same with IE 5.01. BTW, is there way to change the authorization realm ? This should trigger the login dialog in Netscape Communicator. Ciao, Jochen
