[Zope] beginner's questions...

[Jens Vagelpohl]

hey everyone,

i bet this has been asked before, but i just subscribed to the list
yesterday...

i am running zope 1.10.3 on redhat 5.2 with python 1.5.1, using the built-in
ZHTTPServer

- what is the best way to bind ZHTTPServer to port 80? i looked at the chain
of scripts starting the server process but i have not been able to specify
the port-argument successfully. looking at the documentation yields
conflicting advice, if any...


- trying to shut down the server process from the management-control panel
"shutdown"-button doesn't work. the traceback in the page source says:

Traceback (innermost last):
  File /usr/src/Zope-1.10.3-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 877,
in publish_module
  File /usr/src/Zope-1.10.3-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 590,
in publish
    (Info: /Control_Panel/manage_shutdown)
  File /usr/src/Zope-1.10.3-src/lib/python/App/ApplicationManager.py, line
222, in manage_shutdown
    (Object: Navigation)
  File /usr/src/Zope-1.10.3-src/lib/python/BoboPOS/SimpleDB.py, line 802, in
save_index
IOError: (13, 'Permission denied')


help is highly appreciated. what i am working on is an intranet-based
customer database with web front-end. this is a class project for my
master's program and i intend on dazzling the professor, whose solutions and
projects almost always exclusively involve micro$oft-trash, of which i am
utterly sick after a few projects with e.g. SQL server and ASP.
