[Zope] apache rewrite quit working

[Thomas Bennett]

I've just now been able to get back to this.  netstat was 
listening on appropriate ports. Two things appear to be the
 issue here.  The  user for apache was the default user 
apache  and this user does not exist on my server, I changed 
it to the username I made for apache to run under.  Then there 
was a firewall issue.

error log for virtual host had this:

[Wed May 09 13:23:29 2007] [error] (13)Permission denied: proxy: HTTP: attempt to connect to 127.0.0.1:8086 (*) failed
[Wed May 09 13:25:55 2007] [error] (13)Permission denied: proxy: HTTP: attempt to connect to 127.0.0.1:8086 (*) failed
[Wed May 09 13:26:02 2007] [error] (13)Permission denied: proxy: HTTP: attempt to connect to 127.0.0.1:8086 (*) failed

until allowed port 8086 on firewall and then this:

[Wed May 09 13:32:50 2007] [error] [client 86.120.184.161] Directory index forbidden by Options directive: /var/www/html/
[Wed May 09 13:32:50 2007] [error] [client 86.120.184.161] Directory index forbidden by Options directive: /var/www/html/
[Wed May 09 13:33:04 2007] [error] [client 152.10.156.23] File does not exist: /var/www/html/vdb, referer: http://www.library.appstate
.edu/

which is Apache serving from its own document root.  I commented 
out the DocumentRoot setting in httpd.conf and it started working.  I 
don't  remember ever having to comment that part out.  As a matter 
of fact I have an older linux, apache, and zope with apache rewriting 
to zope and serving from the file system through redirects.

Any thing I have obviously missed here?

Thanks for the replies,

Thomas

If it's not as simple as possible to try it, then the barrier to entry is too high.
