Configuring Plone for the proxy

How to configure Plone for the proxy.

Andy McKay

If you are running Plone on Windows and would like to run Microsoft IIS in front of your Plone site, the you need to set up a proxy. This tutorial covers the setting up of Enfold Proxy and will allow you to run Plone behind Microsoft IIS.
Page 2 of 4.

The configuration of a Plone for Enfold Proxy is exactly the same as for any other proxy. You will need to ensure that your Zope site has a single Virtual Host Monster.

  1. Go to your Zope instance (normally on port 8080) and ensure you are at the root of your Zope site, not your Plone site. The easy way to check is to ensure that you can see Control Panel in the site listing.
  2. From the add drop down box in the top right hand corner, select "Virtual Host Monster", the id doesn't matter, it can be anything, so call it "vhm".

That's it. Now install and configure Enfold Proxy.
