If the function of the siteroot is ONLY to create a virtualroot and no other weird proxy stuff, then try replacing it with the EnhancedVirtualHostMonster. Then all your SiteRoot issues disappear. I recently replaced several SiteRoots with eVHM so the contents could be more acessible across Zope. It is great. -Trevor

I have a site that I would like to synchronize using sitecopy and webdav. I've been following the instructions found at (long url): http://zope.nipltd.com/public/lists/zope-archive.nsf/ 47ba74c812dbc5dd8025687f0024bb5f/d1daeaa7052309dc80256ac7007abac9? OpenDocument&Highlight=0,sitecopy

This is simple enough, but I have a siteroot, and that is throwing everything off. Here is my .sitecopyrc:

site ccs-beta server ******* port 3081 protocol webdav username ****** password ****** remote /ccs local /home/mlogan/proj/web/zope/ccs exclude acl_users exclude *[Cc]atalog exclude SiteRoot

When I do a sitecopy --fetch, it finds absolutely nothing. Interestingly, if I set the remote directory to /, it works fine, but downloads the whole zope database (including controlpanel, etc). If I start zope with SUPPRESS_SITEROOT=1, and use the same config above, it downloads only the directory that I want.

Nothing I have tried can get around the siteroot, and I don't even understand exactly what problem the siteroot is causing. Is there a way to have zope suppress the siteroot on the webdav port only? that would be ideal.

Any insight would be really helpful.

Thanks, Mark Logan mlogan@ccs.neu.edu
