In short:
If you use a virtual host apache config, enter "/xmlrpc" in the "Path" entry. The directory does not have to exist.

If you don't use virtual host, enter "/index_xmlrpc.php". That file should exist in the eZ publish root directory.

Note that your apache config must contain a rewrite rule for xmlrpc. I think this is mentioned in the docs.

DE should connect through the same port as you use in your browser, you can set the port in the login dialog.

DE works out-of-the-box on a standard eZ publish 2.2.7 installation, if you run an older version that may cause problems.

Gunnstein,

>>If you don't use virtual host, enter "/index_xmlrpc.php". That file should exist in the eZ publish root directory.<<

BINGO !!! :)

Thank you SO very much indeed !!

Two comments on this, however, if I may.

(1) You may be interested to know that this does not (!) work in conjunction with a proxy server. I had to remove (!) the proxy server configuration in order to make DE work. Since our inTRAnet server is on "our" side of the firewall, this did not hurt. However, it is a very strange thing and you should definitely fix that. When hunting the bug, concentrate on proxy configuration when port# is not 80.

(2) You may eventually want to include a documentation of the PATH variable with the DE download. To better understand the situation as it is right now, imagine you have bought a new car, but you cannot find the key. When you ask the vendor, he says, "Oh didn't I tell you, you must dance around the chimney of your house, four times at moonlight, and then a ghost will appear and give you the key."
It should be easier than that. :)

Thanks again for your help, and have a nice day,
--Michael
