Why won't Plone start on Windows 2003?

Up to Table of Contents

This FAQ applies to: Plone 2.5.x, Plone 2.1.x

After installing the Windows installer for Plone, I can't access Zope at http://hostname:8080/ even though the Zope appears to be running.

If you're running IIS, it may be the culprit as it sometimes likes to take over port 8080, the default port that Zope runs on. You can either:

  1. Shut down IIS if it's not needed (or possibly replace it with Apache)
  2. Change the port that Zope uses (via the Plone Controller)
