I'm running Zope on 127.0.0.1:8080 and then using Apache ProxyPass and
VirtualHostMonster to run my site, here is my quick howto on building
zope and python and psycopg. (just my notes, so it might not have too
much polish).
Building a Modern Zope 2.7.5 + Python 2.3.5
wget http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.3.5/Python-2.3.5.tar.bz2
wget http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.7.5/Zope-2.7.5-final.tgz
mkdir /home/user/zope
Python
tar -xvjf Python-2.3.5.tar.bz2
cd Python-2.3.5
./configure --prefix=/home/user/zope
make
make install
Zope
tar -xvzf Zope-2.7.5-final.tgz
cd Zope-2.7.5-final
./configure --with-python=/home/user/zope/bin/python
--prefix=/home/user/zope
make
make install
Create the Zope Instance
/home/user/zope/bin/mkzopeinstance.py
Directory: /home/user/zope
Username: admin
Password: adminpassword
Egenix MxDateTime
wget http://www.egenix.com/files/python/egenix-mx-base-2.0.6.tar.gz
tar -xvzf egenix-mx-base-2.0.6.tar.gz
cd egenix-mx-base-2.0.6
/home/user/zope/bin/python setup.py build
/home/user/zope/bin/python setup.py install
Psycopg
wget http://initd.org/pub/software/psycopg/psycopg-1.1.18.tar.gz
tar -xvzf psycopg-1.1.18.tar.gz
cd psycopg-1.1.18
./configure --with-python=/home/user/zope/bin/python
--with-postgres-libraries=/usr/lib/pgsql
--with-postgres-includes=/usr/include/pgsql
--with-mxdatetime-includes=../egenix-mx-base-2.0.6/mx/DateTime/mxDateTime
--with-zope=/home/user/zope
make install
make install-zope
Edit $INSTANCE_HOME/etc/zope.conf
