Making a squishdot site the root of a web

Posted by on Monday November 29, 06:08PM, 1999
from the dept.
I have created a squishot site that is contained in the root of the zope object structure. It can be accessed as www.mydomain.com/squish How can I make it accessible as www.mydomain.com? I have apache and user rewriting to access zope content with pcgi. I also have tried cuting and pasting all the objects inside the squishdot object to the root folder, but that does not work.

My solution for this was to simply insert a redirect on the Zope index page. So when a user arrives at the "normal" site index.html page, they are instantly transparently redirected to the squishdot site root. It's not as elegant as moving the whole shebang to the top of the site, but it allows me to leave a functional site intact.

Along the same lines, I was wondering about the default install. Seems to create the server instance on port 8080. I would like to ask opinions on the safety on running the server as root (port 80).

One final question... I was messing around with defining a different "site image" for the site_header section. I accidentally erased the
and now the only way to get an image to show up is to put in the real path. Does anyone know what the site_img dtml-var is (was)? Thanks in advance... :-)

I also use Zope with apache and it does work with rewrite rules.

This is what i use:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*)
# The next must all be on the same line:
RewriteRule ^/(.*) /home/httpd/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/Squishdot/$1 [e=HTTP_CGI_AUT
HORIZATION:%1,t=application/x-httpd-cgi,l]
