Dear List,
I am moving a plone 2.0.1 from an old server running FreeBSD 4.9 and
apache 1.3 to a new server running FreeBSD 6.2 with apache 2.2 with
the system updated with latest patches.
Instead of setting up to just run the plone 2.0.1 on the new server,
while i have the time, i installed everything i needed to run plone
2.1 so i could migrate to plone 2.1. Migration went fine with no errors.
I can bring up the plone site by adding the port at which the Zope/
Plone is running on. But when i try to bring up the site via rewrite
through apache, i get:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.
I reconfigured the apache config for the virtual host to use a
siteroot which has an index.html and the index page comes up fine
with no forbidden message so apache is working. I already know apache
is working since i have two other virtual hosts that are not Plone
which are working fine from the server.
I doubled checked on plone.org for the correct rewriterule and mine
was essentially identical (name and port changed to protect the in
development status:
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://localhost:portnumber/VirtualHostBase/
http/%{SERVER_NAME}:80/mydomain.com/VirtualHostRoot/$1 [L,P]
Also have checked to make sure that mod rewrite is loaded in apache
and it is (seems to be standard). apachectl -t gives an OK syntax
check. There is a virtual host monster.
Questions:
1. Any pointers on what could be going wrong and why i am getting the
"Forbidden. You don't have permissions to access / on this server"
when rewriting in the apache conf file to talk to the plone 2.1? I
have searched hi and low for clues. It all seems like it should just
be working... its not like i haven't set up plone through apache
before, but it has always been apache 1.3.
2. My goal is to migrate to plone 2.5 eventually after i get apache
to rewrite to a zope/plone instance on the new server. All reading
seems to indicate that i need to migrate from 2.0 to 2.1 and then to
2.5. Is this true?
3. When i bring up the migrated plone 2.1, the skin seems broken in
that the css seems not to work. Is there something that you have to
do after a migrate to 2.1 (from 2.0.1) to get the skin to work if you
have some items in the "custom" folder?
Thank you for any help you can give.
Peace,
Dan
