[Zope] Apache virtual hosts and Zope on port 80...

[Graham King]

PCGI is very slow, in comparison.
FastCGI is much better, but as Steve said, ProxyPass uses your http
interface in Zope itself.
ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse are great to avoid the ugly URL content, when
you have virtual hosts, kame sure to use the VirtualHostMonster.

Given your comment about port 8998 below, you can use any port, but PCGI is
not a PORT connection, but a shell script "front-end" (hence slowness).

Note, I've noticed my own problem with PCGI and Zope 2.5.0, whereas the
other methods are working well. (Don't know enough about problem yet to
comment).

Subject: [Zope] Apache virtual hosts and Zope on port 80...


I am attempting to install Zope on a remote server that I have root access
to. The server is behind a firewall.  Therefore I need the Zope content to
be handled by Apache through port 80 in order for anyone to see it,
including me. This apache has numerous virtual hosts set up, only ONE of
which I need some Zope content for.

Zope was installed from source at /usr/local/zope
The various virtual hosts are at:
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/hostone.com/
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/hostone.com/

I was planning on following the instructions at doc/WEBSERVER.txt for using
Zope.cgi (pcgi), but the examples all said to then connect with
http://hostone.com:8998/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/manage

I can't see if it is working due to the firewall and need it passed on port
80. Is there anyway to do this?

I have not yet run the "z2.py -p" due to this question.
Thanks in advance for any replies.
