Looking at the problem, I think that it may have to do with a Zenoss issue
and not an apache configuration issue. Wes, it would be great if we could
get your howto. Wowever, if possible we would like to do this without
altering zope and just proxying through apache. Our apache works on
everything except the content on the dashboard and login... When we proxy,
we get the dashboard page, but none of the devices show up and 0000-00-00
00:00:00 show up as the last updated date/time. It appears that the
dashboard doesn't load any content unless being access directly on port
8080. Do any of the developers have any ideas why this would be occuring?

Thanks,

Zakir

Zakir,

That's the very same problem I was having, and mod_proxy nor mod_rewrite
could really help with. Since my end goal was to use Zenoss with SSL, I
ended up going with the Python package M2Crypto
(http://wiki.osafoundation.org/bin/view/Projects/MeTooCrypto) to tie in
OpenSSL, and that package also has a component (sorry, I'm not well-read on
Zope so I don't know the correct terminology) for Zope to give it HTTPS
support.

I have Apache listening on 80 & 443, and Zope on 8080 & 8443, except 8080 is
firewalled off. Apache rewrites the host portion of (most) URLs coming into
it to https://***:8443/, and since Zope's still handling the actual session,
the URLs in Zenoss & Zope management don't get all mangled.

I'm putting together a howto-ish document on my experience getting Zenoss
running & configured on an RHEL4 box, I could send you some notes on- or
off-list if you like.
