Hi all,
This is weird, I have a Zope server running on port 9673 on a 
machine. I also have an Apache rewrite rule that starts up a 
pcgi_publisher.py process. The rewrite rule points to the right cgi 
and the Apache web server logs show that things are happening.

My rewrite rule is;

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*)
RewriteRule ^/(.*) /home/nnle/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/$1 
[e=HTTP_CGI_AUTHORIZATION:%1,t=application/x-httpd-cgi,l]

The file /home/nnle/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi is;

#!/home/nnle/zope/Zope-1.10.2-solaris-2.5.1-sparc/pcgi/bin/pcgi-wrapper
PCGI_NAME=Main
PCGI_MODULE_PATH=/home/nnle/zope/Zope-1.10.2-solaris-2.5.1-sparc/lib/p 
ython/Main.py
PCGI_PUBLISHER=/home/nnle/zope/Zope-1.10.2-solaris-2.5.1-sparc/pcgi/pc 
gi_publisher.py
PCGI_EXE=/home/nnle/zope/Zope-1.10.2-solaris-2.5.1-sparc/bin/python
PCGI_SOCKET_FILE=/home/nnle/zope/Zope-1.10.2-solaris-2.5.1-sparc/var/pcgi.soc
PCGI_PID_FILE=/home/nnle/zope/Zope-1.10.2-solaris-2.5.1-sparc/var/pcgi.pid
PCGI_ERROR_LOG=/home/nnle/zope/Zope-1.10.2-solaris-2.5.1-sparc/var/pcgi.log
PCGI_DISPLAY_ERRORS=1
PYTHONHOME=/home/nnle/zope/Zope-1.10.2-solaris-2.5.1-sparc
BOBO_REALM=Zope
BOBO_DEBUG_MODE=1

and the directory /home/nnle/zope/Zope-1.10.2-solaris-2.5.1-sparc/ 
contains the var directory with my Data.bbb file in it.

I'm *almost certain* that I'm using the same Data.bbb file (I say 
'almost' because I can't figure it any other way).
The Apache URL gives the location as:
/home/nnle/zope/Zope-1.10.2-solaris-2.5.1-sparc/var/Data.bbb
and the 9673 URL gives the location as:
/home/nnle/zope/Zope-1.10.2-solaris-2.5.1-sparc/var/Data.bbb

But the content is *different* depending on whether I use the Apache 
URL and the port 9673 URL.

Can anyone give me a clue as to what stupid thing I've done now? (sigh).
