Re: [Zope-dev] Add a user to zope

2001-06-20 Thread Dyon Balding

Hi Johan,

It would probably be more efficient for you to look at alternative
user folders that retrieve user data directly from your SQL table.

I'm not sure the current state of the art product is for that, but
UserDb used to be the one, and we have that integrated successfully
in our site.

Check the Products area on zope.org, and I'm sure you'll find something.

Re: [Zope-dev] dtml-in batching badly

 But the algorithm doesn't seem 'smart' enough to roll-up the

 though, you should never set your batch size smaller than
 the orphan size, so this isn't really an issue.
 

so maybe the dtml batching code should just set the orphans to
the batch size if it is greater than the batch size?  that would
at least eliminate some of the confusion with batching.

[Zope-dev] Access to extra modules in Python Scripts

2001-06-20 Thread Dyon Balding

I wanted to make the re module accessible to Python Scripts on my site.

The instructions in the README.txt in the product directory specify that
you should place:

from Products.PythonScripts.Utility import allow_module
allow_module('re')

in a product __init__.py.  This appears to work fine for basic re
functions, however I wish to use the returned re.MatchObject objects,
and these raise an Unauthorized exception when methods are called. 
Reverting to the old __allow_access_to_unprotected_subobjects__ on re,
re.MatchObjects and re.RegexObjects appears to work however.

How is one supposed to expose that functionality to Python Scripts using
the new security features?  In the Utility.py is an allow_class method
as well, but I couldn't work out if that was what I needed.

thanks

[Zope-dev] bug in ZEO-1.0b3

2001-05-29 Thread Dyon Balding

If the ZEO server goes down, the the client no longer tries to keep
reconnecting.

This appears to be something to do with the __closed attribute in
zrpc.py.

Is there a page to check the status of bugs in ZEO?
When is the next version due out? and will it be a final 1.0 version?

[Zope-dev] ZEO on SMP

2001-05-23 Thread Dyon Balding

Hi,

We are setting up a cluster of ZEO clients on dual processor machines. 
From some experiments and from searching through the mailing lists, it
appears that a single Zope process will not take full advantage of the
two processors.

The solution would appear to be to run two ZEO clients on each server. 
This, however, is causing problems.

I can successfully run two Zope (non-ZEO) processes on a single machine,
but two ZEO clients don't seem to coexist nicely on the Windows 2000
machine.  The second client to start will accept connections, but never
responds with anything.

Zope: 2.3.2, ZEO: 1.0b3, Windows 2k for clients, Linux and Windows 2k
for storage server.

Is there a better solution?  If not, has anyone come across this
problem?

Any pointers appreciated

Re: [Zope-dev] ZEO on SMP

2001-05-23 Thread Dyon Balding

Tino,

Thanks for your reply.

When you say it works fine on a dual processor machine, are you saying
that a single ZEO client fully utilises both processors? or that you
are running two ZEO clients successfully?

Unfortunately I'm currently stuck with Windows due to both political
reasons, and because we are interfacing to a large SQLServer database.

Re: [Zope-dev] ZEO on SMP

They are listening on different ports, (80 and 81) in my test case.

And yes, there will be a load balancer in front of them (there will
be 15 dual processor servers) to make the cluster appear like one
machine.

 That won't work :)
 
 Neither Unix nor Windows knows what to do with two processes trying to
 open the same port for listen.  I'm surprised the second Zope instance
 even starts.
 
 If you want to try it, start each instance of Zope on different ports,
 then use some kind of ipforwarding/load balancer on the box to route
 connections to port 80 to either of your Zope servers (say 8081 and
 8082).

Well that's what I'm trying to do, but as mentioned in my original

not respond.  The ZEO storage server is running on a separate machine,
serving the 15 client machines.

 I may be merely demonstrating ignorance, but --
 
 If you, say, launched two separate Zope processes, and one ZEO process, on 
 the same machine, aren't you going to be running 3 different Python 
 interpreters, each in it's own process?
 
 Couldn't you then be utilizing up to three processors on an SMP box?
 
 I agree that threads within a particular Python interpreter are not really

 that a moot point with separate Python interpreter processes?
 
 Or does the TCP/IP stack cause problems?

[Zope-dev] Hotfixes and __bases__

2001-05-17 Thread Dyon Balding

In Caseman's How-To named Extend Zope Dynamically with Hotfixes, at
http://www.zope.org/Members/Caseman/Dynamic_Hotfix, he mentions that you
could: Add new base classes to existing classes.

I have tried this, and can't get it to work, my question is: is it
possible?, and if so, how do I make it work? :)

I am using Python 1.5.2, which supports dynamically updating the
__bases__ attribute.   I can successfully update the bases in simple
Python classes, but when I try to do it to a Zope (2.3.2) class
(specifically Folder), my assignment to the __bases__ attribute doesn't
update it.

Is what I'm doing even possible?

 Hello guys,
 
 It seems that I've some memory leak problems and I want to understand where
 I've to look for.
 
 Scenario:
 
 I've an IIS web server that generates an XML page (taking data from
 SqlServer);
 The Zope web server must retrieve the XML page, manage the data and render
 them in HTML (I cant only apply a XSL stylesheet to XML).
 
 The Facts:
 
 I've written a external method that - using httplib - reads the XML page and
 return a string that is the raw XML sources, than I've written another
 external method that use ExpatBuilder of Products.ParsedXML.DOM to parse the
 XML an generate a list of [(id - {mapping})] which will be accessed with a
 dtml-in tag, so in the sequence-key I've access to the ID and with
 sequence-item I can access to the mapping object.
 I'm using latest version of ZOPE (2.3.1, the binary one with Python 1.5.2)
 and ParsedXML.
 
 The Problem:
 
 It seems that every time the method retrieve the page or parse the XML I
 loose a bunch of kilobytes. Because the methods are very simple (100 lines
 of code in total) and because I didn't create any class for handling this
 workflow I can't understand where I can loose bytes.
 
 The Questions:
 
 Is the list generated for the dtml-in tag freed automatically by ZOPE ?
 Is there a Garbage Collector somewhere that must be activated ?
 Should I avoid the use of the ExpatBuilder for XML processing ?
 
 Thanks for listening my newbies questions.
 
 
 Best Regards,

[Zope-dev] standard_error_message manipulation

2001-04-09 Thread Dyon Balding

Hi,

As part of a large python product I wanted to modify the normal
"Zope Error" standard_error_message page.

Most exceptions will be caught in the code, and therefore those
that do get through and cause an error message to be displayed
to the user probably indicate a bug in our code.  I would like
to give the user the ability to submit the details of the exception
along with their own information as a bug report.

I created my own standard_error_message, and wanted it to contain
a form with the values of error_value and error_tb among
others.  It however appears that the values of these variables get
rendered into HTML much earlier than desired and therefore aren't
very readable in a bug report.

Is there a better approach to this problem? or a work around?

thanks

Hi,

We've got a 2 client ZEO cluster working fine,

the other clients, PythonMethods created via
the original clients barf when viewed on the
new client.

Wierdly, PythonMethods created in the new client
work fine on all three.

Any idea what is happening here?

This is causing big problems with our site, and we need to resolve
it pretty desperately.  I guess the another solution would be to ensure
that all calls to SQL columns are the same case as in the database,
but with around 500 ZSQLMethods - that is a daunting task.

Re: [Zope-dev] Linux Zope - Win2K SQL Server?

2000-12-07 Thread Dyon Balding

I am currently running Zope - ZSQLRelayDA - SQLRelay+FreeTDS - SQLServer on NT.

It works, but not particularly robustly it would seem.

 I'm still trying to figure out what the missing pieces are... if anyone else

 appreciate some guidance.
 
 It seems I would have to write my own Product from scratch to do this, no
 matter what. None of the ODBC Products seem to be available for Unix, and
 ODBC from Unix - Windows will require additional software like EasySoft's
 ODBC Bridge anyway. Or I could just not use ODBC at all and make some
 Product customized to MS SQL Server.
 
 Some may suggest using ActiveState's Perl Methods for Zope and DBD::Proxy.
 :)  It's a possibility, but I'd like to see if more conventional solutions
 exist.

Re: [Zope-dev] SQLAlias Memory Leak?

2000-12-06 Thread Dyon Balding

OK, I've had more of a hack at this, and I've narrowed the problem
down a little.

It appears that any access to an SQLAlias object causes it to not

in the database.

 Hi,
 
 I have an application that stores state data in a
 SQLServer database.  The Zope and database servers
 run on different windows machines, using the ZODBCDA
 product to connect Zope to the ODBC machinery.
 
 What I have been observing is that the Zope client's
 memory usage increases consistently when ZSQL methods
 are being called.  In the Debug screens, the
 culprit appears to be Shared.DC.ZRDB.RDB.SQLAlias.
 
 Here's a dump of the first few lines after hitting
 a ZSQL method a few hundred times using ab.  The
 SQLAlias figures never seem to go down.

 In fact most of our servers run out of memory and need
 to be restarted every couple of days when they get
 sufficient use.
 
 I've done a bit of a search of the mailing lists, and noone
 else appears to be having the same problem.  So does
 anyone have an idea of what we might be doing differently
 to everyone else?  We appear to have the latest versions
 installed.
 
 I've had a bit of a look through the code, and it appears
 that SQLAlias is used to case desensitize the column names
 of the returned data?
 
 Any pointers would be appreciated.
 
 thanks, d

 Hi all,
 
 The current format is Hotfix_08_09_2000, my proposed format is

 This is the ISO 8601 format (abbreviated form).

totally agree.

american style dates are frustrating in many ways.

whereever it can be done, i believe the ISO format should
be used.
