I have installed zope on a 500mhz laptop with 64MB. When I run start.bat the server, ftp and pcgi comes up but when I type http://192.168.0.11:8080 (my ip address:80) or http://localhost:8080 or http://green:8080 (machine name) I get can't find server. Don't know if this is relevant but start.bat brings up a command window, runs the python program (outputting host names and ports for the three 'services') and douse not return to the dos prompt. I assume this is because it is not ruining in background in the same way it douse on NT.

Ben: You are not alone. I had Zope work okay on a Win98 box when I first installed it. But subsequent installs (to upgrade) have never worked and show the symptoms you describe. I've got a hunch that the registry needs tweaking but I know precious little about that on NT and SFA on Win98. Windoze gurus please help!

Windows 9x does not have a service / background way of running things in the same way that NT does, so you will always have a dos-prompt running and yes AFAIK that means you can't detach from it.

You could change your start.bat to use pythonw.exe. Im not sure if that is shipped with zope, but the one from the standard python distribution should work fine. Toby Dickenson tdickenson@geminidataloggers.com
Paul/Ben, Would it be possible for you to send a copy of the output from the Zope start.bat script? I've *never* had any problem when running Zope on any of the 32 bit Windows, (getting it running on Windows 3.1 was hard tho, just kidding). My first guess is that the localhost/other domains are not in your hosts file, but I can't be definitive.

Well, prompted by the tip at today's Zope Newbies, I revisted this (the problem is not on a machine I use regularly). The Good News: I had a hosts.sam file in C:\Windows so I copied it to a file called hosts (with a localhost entry). The Bad News: It still won't work!

Can't really tell very much from that cos it looks normal. You know, I've *never* had any problem getting Zope working on Win32 (W98/NT4/95/2000), none at all. This is most peculiar!!!!!!!!!! Are you sure you've not got anything else running on port 8080?

This looks like its exactly the same as I get when I run Zope on 98 - and I don't have any problems. This does mean that it's listening on port 8080, though, so to try to connect to the page you need to visit http://localhost:8080/ not http://localhost/ - if this is all you're getting from Zope then you shouldn't then have a problem. Apart from that, if you want Zope to listen on the default HTML port (port 80), open z2.py in the root of the Zope installation folder (in notepad will do but PythonWin's better) and look for the following lines: # Port for HTTP Server. The standard port for HTTP services is 80 HTTP_PORT=8080 Change it to read HTTP_PORT=80 and restart Zope, and you'll have Zope listening on the default HTTP port, so you can then go to http://localhost/ and get the initial Zope page.
