Is there a way to do this using Zope-zserver, and not Zope-pcgi?
When I started this, I was just using the Zserver....but now that I need
to include calls to cgi programs for the sake of a couple images, I am
thinking I will needs Zope-pcgi..
If this is the case, I will need to uninstall the Zope-Zserver (if I try
to have both, there is a conflict) and install Zope-pcgi. Does this mean
I will have to import all the files, directories, etc. back into Zope, and
then reconfigure all of the files (replace all SSI lines with
dtml lines, etc)?
Thanks,
Jessica
