Software home

« Back to Glossary

The directory inside the Zope installation (on the filesystem) that contains all the Python code that makes up the core of the Zope application server. The various Zope packages are distributed here. Also referred to as the $SOFTWARE_HOME environment variable. It varies from one system to the next, depending where you or your packaging system installed Zope. You can find the value of this in the ZMI > Control Panel.
