[sorry, newbie kind of questions;-)] Hello, It's my first post on this list, so please excuse me if this has been asked 100 times. Voilà, I discovered zope, and was wondering how this webdav stuff works. read that it was possible to use webdav with zope, and with ie 5+ and ms office 2000, and some others clients. I installed zope (which of course rocks!), and didn't know how to setup webdav with it. Do I have to change something in the start.bat file? Any arguments? It seems that the right one is -W. I'm using zope 2.3 on a win32. Do you have any pointers about this? Anyone doing this on the same kind of machine? What should I type in the open box of ie5? And in office2000? Another question : why does zope runs by default on the port 8080? I saw some sites on the net with the url like this : www.domain.com:8080 . "It's quite a mess they didn't change the port of the server" did I say in my little brain. And I tried to change this behavior on my local zope and didn't find a way. How can I change the port to the standard 80? Thanks for your time ! A zope newbie very impressed by the work made here Philippe Jadin

Make sure you have Web Folders installed - this is an option in the IE5 install. Web Folders come for free (I think) in Win98 and Win2000 but not under NT4. If you haven't got a Web Folders icon under My Computer then it isn't installed.

One way is to edit z2.py. You want the lines # Port for HTTP Server. The standard port for HTTP services is 80. HTTP_PORT=8080 Change the second one and restart Zope.

Edit "z2.py" and change the "HTTP_PORT" value. But for anything more than just messing around, consider using Apache on port 80 as the front end, relaying to the Zope process on port 8080 using ProxyPass. -- Fred Yankowski fred@OntoSys.com tel: +1.630.879.1312 Principal Consultant www.OntoSys.com fax: +1.630.879.1370 OntoSys, Inc 38W242 Deerpath Rd, Batavia, IL 60510, USA
[Philippe J.] Sorry I can't help you with the WebDAV questions, I'm sure others on this list will sooner or later anyway. :) | How can I change the port to the standard 80? Edit the z2.py file in your Zope directory. In my Zope 2.2.1 it is at line 325: # Port for HTTP Server. The standard port for HTTP services is 80. HTTP_PORT=8080 Change this to: HTTP_PORT=80 It would also be wise to update the FTP_PORT (and MONITOR_PORT if you have it) to be 21 instead of 8021, to follow the namingconvention. :) Good luck with Zope!

Although you don't provide some details on your setup (make sure you *do* next time you ask !) I suppose you are running Zope on NT or 2000. You say "start.bat" don't you ? :-) IIRC "-W" doesn't have anything to do with Webdav, but with the port. So use "-W 80" to run Zope from port 80 instead of editing the z2.py file as others have said -of course, both solutions are fine, I just find -w a bit more elegant. Dimitris @ Nuclear

The -w switch means HTTP-port in its usual way (probably serving WebDAV as well) and coming with 2.3 the new switch -W for a DAV-only server. Its mentioned in the changes. With -W you can have a DAV-Server (for IE's webfolder on another Port (or IP) If you have 2 IPs (you always have, you can use localhost [127.0.0.1] and your Ethernet-cards IP. you can do: z2.py -X -w ethernetip:80 -W localhost:80 The -X switches off all default servers.
