Description j. alan eldridge 2001-02-27 06:30:15 UTC

platform: RH7 x86 with *all* patches + Ximian GNOME 1.2

Zope RPMS v. 2.2.4-4, 2.2.4-7 (RH7), 2.2.5-? (rawhide)

rewrite rules added to httpd.conf as per instructions in documentation
file: /usr/share/doc/Zope-2.2.x/README.RPM

authentication to the administration interface still fails. authentication
using the medusa monitor_client.py also fails unconditionally.

i know i must be doing something wrong, but i've not got any experience
debugging python apps in the large. w/o admin interface, zope can't do
anything.

can one of you folks shed some light on this?

Sure. Make sure that you change the default login/password compination using 
the zpasswd command. It is described in /usr/share/doc/Zope-2.2.5/README.RPM.

Then, make sure that when you try to connect to the management screen that the 
url you use in your browser is one of the allowed domains you put in using 
zpasswd.

I just tested it with the 2.2.5 packages, and it works fine.
