Hi,

I just installed Quixote 2.4 and SCGI both released on 12/23/2005

I'm running on Fedora Core 3 with python 2.3.

I just want to see if scgi server is working.

So I renamed Quixote-2.4
/demo/mini_demo.py to scgi_mini_demo.py and
changed the line:
from quixote.server.simple_server import run
to
from quixote.server.scgi_server import run

I can use

lynx http://localhost/abc 
to access the demo page,
And the helloworld page can be displayed correctly at:

http://localhost/abc/hello 

in fact, The 'abc' can be replaced by any string,
when access lynx
http://localhost/abc  That's weird!
But when I use

lynx http://localhost/ 
I got the following error,

"Data transfer complete
HTTP/1.0 301 Moved Permanently

lynx: Start file could not be found or is not text/html or text/plain
      Exiting...
"


scgi_mini_demo.py
*****************************************************

from quixote.publish import Publisher
from quixote.directory import Directory

class RootDirectory(Directory):

    _q_exports = ['', 'hello']


    def _q_index(self):
        return '''
                    Welcome to the Quixote demo.  Here is a
                    link.
                    

                  
                '''

    def hello(self):
        return 'Hello world!'


def create_publisher():
    return Publisher(RootDirectory(),

                     display_exceptions='plain')


if __name__ == '__main__':
    from quixote.server.scgi_server import run
    print 'creating demo listening on
http://localhost:3000/' 
    run(create_publisher, host='localhost', port=3000)

**************************************************************

I don't think that's related to the http server,

Anyway I'm using lighttpd and the config file is like:

$HTTP["url"] !~ "^/static/" {
  scgi.server = (
                  "/" => ( "
127.0.0.1" =>
                      (
                        "host" => "127.0.0.1",
                        "port" => 3000,
                        "check-local" => "disable"

                      )
                    )
                )
}


Anybody can help me out? Thanks a bunch!
