Welcome to Zope.
|
|
|
|
The basic installation process for FreeBSD now has been done. To have a
|
|
quick look, cd to your Zope base directory (see below) and start Zope
|
|
with:
|
|
|
|
./start -w <web port> -f <ftp port>
|
|
|
|
where <web port> is the port where to http-access Zope with your browser
|
|
(try http://localhost:<web port>). It defaults to 80. <ftp-port> is the
|
|
same thing for ftp (upload) access, it defaults to 21. Obviously, you will
|
|
have to specify these if you already use these ports. The user/password
|
|
pair for access to the management screens has been preset to
|
|
zopemaster/test, respectively.
|
|
|
|
PLEASE NOTE that the above only is for a quick check only, BUT IT WILL
|
|
LEAVE YOUR ZOPE PROCESS WIDE OPEN TO HACKING SINCE THERE'S NO SECURITY
|
|
WHATSOEVER. Therefore, PLEASE do incorporate the suggested changes (see
|
|
below) to your apache-SSL web server and only start Zope WITHOUT ANY open
|
|
<web port> or <ftp port>. This can be done, also from the Zope base dir,
|
|
by:
|
|
|
|
./start -w '' -f '' -m '' -p <path to Zope.cgi>/Zope.cgi
|
|
|
|
where <path to Zope.cgi> is the (full) path to where Zope.cgi lives (see
|
|
below). There now also should be a file in ${PREFIX}/etc/rc.d/ (most
|
|
probably /usr/local/etc/rc.d/) named zope.sh that does the startup for you
|
|
after a reboot.
|
|
|
|
Also, it might be a good idea now to change the password. You can do that
|
|
with (again, in the Zope base directory):
|
|
|
|
python zpasswd.py -u <username> -p <passwd> -e CLEARTEXT access
|
|
|
|
The -e CLEARTEXT presently is *mandatory*, otherwise authentication
|
|
through apache will not work.
|
|
|
|
You will probably already have gone through Apache's ssl certificate
|
|
generation process. If not, please do so now, if you don't already have a
|
|
certificate. If only a few well known people will have access to your
|
|
management screens, a self-signed one probably will suffice. Please refer
|
|
to the Apache and the Apache-SSL documentation for further information.
|
|
Use a sufficiently "long" key. Don't forget the https://... when trying to
|
|
access the management pages.
|
|
|
|
Apache will communicate with Zope through the so-called persistent cgi
|
|
interface (aka pcgi). There's links to more information on the Zope web
|
|
site at http://www.zope.org. Also, this is the best (and only) source of
|
|
help end information on Zope itself.
