LocalFS/Zope CGI Question
Hi; I've added a LocalFS folder for my cgi-bin dir and also Zope CGI, but I'm not clear how to integrate these two so that I can access my Mailman and Vqadmin cgi scripts, which are on the legacy system. Can someone give me an example of mapping in ZopeCGI? I think that may resolve the problem. Right now, I'm entering "sh" in the "Extension" box and "cgi-bin/vqadmin/vqadmin.cgi" in the "Handler" box. I can surf to that because it's correctly mapped via the LocalFS folder (called "cgi-bin") but the code doesn't render. Please help beno

ZopeCGI is deprecated since ages and obsolete. The recommended way is to use Apache + RewriteRules. -aj

I do not understand what you plan. But I can tell you that Zope will do nothing (and need not do anything) with Mailman or Vqadmin cgi scripts. It is Apache (or another Web Server) that might be ready to call scripts via CGI. Zope won't.... -- Dieter

My plan is to avoid installing extra and otherwise unnecessary s/w. I don't need Apache for anything else. If Zope is out, is it possible to do this with Squid, do you know?

I do not know -- but I doubt it: Squid specialiazed on caching and almost surely did not aim for Web server functionality. -- Dieter

Squid does not execute CGI scripts, it is a *cache* server, not a web server. jens -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (Darwin) iD8DBQFE2iF5RAx5nvEhZLIRAhouAKCufKEj4vwtmLeTTRTJd6wYUfMXvACfQbsp 9rfw4y8NgssA9HDCuPEHfvo= =GIco -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
