The obvious solution is to improve the docs, but that's a work in
progress already.

It's a pity the mailing list software can't monitor the messages, and
automatically re-post question messages that go unanswered.  Questions
could be flagged with a Q: header or whatever.

[Zope] The right way to sum fields

2000-06-14 Thread icottee



I have a folder with a set of timesheets in it. If I create a method to sum a
field called I_TimeTaken is this the correct syntax?

---


   


---

To explain, this works but I'm interested to know if this is the right way.
Specifically because I am now trying to write another routine which totals not
just the current folder but the contents of any sub folders below and am running
into problems (i.e. I can't do it). If the basic step is wrong I'd like to know
before I use it in other places. Haven't managed to find anything in the
archives but I think I may be suffering from docs overload.

Many thanks for any help

But do you want advanced? If you just want to store your authentication
information, UserDB is just fine - moving to GenericUserFolder in
this case may just cause you troubles, as more advanced also means 
more complicated.

UserDB is a simple user adaptor that is all you need if you are
storing your usernames, passwords and roles etc. in the one central
RDBMS. GenericUserFolder is what you have to move to if you are
in a more peculiar environment or want to use Radius authentication.
LoginManager supports all the functionality of GenericUserFolder,
but is still in developmental stages and probably not recommended for
production sites but may be the perfect choice if you don't plan going
production right now.

Sounds like you would be happiest with UserDB for now and migrating
to the LDAP Adaptor in the future. Or if you wait long enough before
migrating to LDAP, you will probably find LoginManager supports LDAP
out of the box with no coding.

Both GenericUserFolder and the current incarnation of LoginManager
require fairly in depth DTML knowledge unless you follow a cheat sheet
(check the HOWTO's on zope.org).

[Zope] Sharing of the same Data.fs on a separate machine

2000-06-14 Thread Troy Tan Wee Teck

Currently I have installed 2 machines(machine A and machine B) with Zope
2.1.6 and another machine called C which solely contain the Data.fs
which is to be shared by the 2 machines. From what I know whatever
changes to the Zope management it will update the Data.fs file (pls
correct me if I am wrong).

The problem now is these 2 machines are supposed to be on all the time
but whenever I did any changes to the Data.fs (example if I add in any
dtml methods or whatever in the Zope management) using Machine A. I can
only view the new changes that are being implemented on machine A, but
when I switch to machine B to view those changes, strangely enough,
machine B do not show me the changes that I have already done by machine
A since both machine A and B are sharing the same Data.fs from machine
C. However, if I do a reboot to machine B, then I will be able to able
to view the changes that have been done.

What I would like to find out if there is a solution, to enable both
machines to view any changes to the Zope management regardless of the
Data.fs is modified by either machines.

Any kind souls out there, pls enlighten me. Thank you.

If its setting the REMOTE_USER environment variable, then Zope does
this out of the box with a little configuration - see doc/WEBSERVER.txt
in your Zope installation (search for 'Zope authentication with existing

Out of the box, Zope does not support sharing of one Data.fs amongst multiple
Zopes, the ZODB assumes it is the only process controlling the storage, an dit
in fact locks that storage. I am surprised you didn't run into more serious
trouble, if not at least a lock error, already.

If you wait a short period, then you can use ZEO, an extension to the ZODB
that let's you distribute one ZODB storage over multiple ZOpe installations,
precisely what you want. It is slated to be released Real Soon Now (TM). I
can't tell you when, because from my position I have no view whatsoever on
that project.

[Zope] PTK questions

Using the 0.7.1 snapshot

I've patched my Members/index_html to read


 &dtml-
sequence-item;


but there's another one of these that says

'created by '

which gives the wrong url.  Where can I patch that? I had a quick look
thru the methods of the portal instance, and in the portal product, but
couldn't find it.

Also, I've deleted a couple of test members I created but they still
show in the members listing.  How can I reindex to remove them?

[Zope] Does Zope support user authentication, sessions, etc?

2000-06-14 Thread Boon Hoo

My upcoming project is to build an investment-related website that
allows members to customise their profiles, portfolios and etc. Users
can also gain access to "tools" that they have subscribed for.

>From the specifications given, my first thought is to implement it in
object-oriented way of programming. Zope (being open-source and OOP
from ground-up) naturally came to mind. Therefore, i would like to know
whether Zope is suitable (and stable enough) to develop this kind of
websites, bearing in mind other criteria such as scalability, performance,
and the "learning curve" involved.

I have done programming in PHP before, and AFAIK to implement features such
as user-authentication, sessions and permissions in PHP, we can either write
our own libraries, or use PHPLIB. However, looking at PHPLIB, it seems to
be quite buggy, and require a lot of work re-writing for some of its
functions.
Therefore, I would also like to know whether there's any
authentication/session
management modules(or classes) already written for Zope, and if they exist,
is
it easy to implement them(as in as easy as plug-and play, or a lot of coding
required)?

Thanks in advance.

Thee Boon Hoo

[Zope] compiling images

2000-06-14 Thread josh on

Hello,

I have been trying to get a collaborative comic book buider made in zope and
macromedia director.

First I want to say that I have enjoyed working in the open source world of
zope so much more than director.  Whilst some parts of Director are well
documented, others are positively hidden away...  completely propritary it
seems.  Where as here there is a great will to share and distribute
knowledge... anyhow that is by the by. (but really appreciated!)

My problem is I can't find a good plug-in for Director that lets it export
images from shockwave files.  They are just 1bit images, so what I can do is
export them as a string of 0s and 1s.

Could I use zope or PYTHON to convert 25000 0s and 1s into an, er, a PNG
file I guess it would have to be.

note, I haven't ever written any python, though I here it is very lovely!

I guess Director would send it via post to a zope page which would then
process it and save a png file.

Am I optomistic?

Hello fellow Zopians,


OK I seem to have further located my problem. In a File ZClass, index_html
is used to display the file. But I want my ZClass to have text in the
index_html, and display/offer the file for DL in a method, say,
download_html.

How do I display the File's data? In the Zope Quick Reference I found
something called view_file_or_image, but this works only as long as I
don't have a custom index_html...

Help, anybody? :)

Documentation

   -- by Amos Lattier

  This Week

* We've released the Docs Wiki

  http://www.zope.org/Wikis/Docs

  This is your source for information on official
  Zope documentation. You can find out about all
  our projects including their status and timelines.
  You can also see what Amos, Michel and Stephan are
  doing each week. Plus, since it's a wiki you can
  add your comments.

* The bulk of this week's work will be spent trying to
  get the online docs ship shape for Zope 2.2 final. Mike
  is finishing up the API docs, Amos is working on the
  help system framework and tutorial and Stephan is working
  on the management help content.

* Mike is working with O'Reilly this week to clarify the
  status of his book. If all goes well we should have a
  definitive answer on making it official Zope documentation
  by the end of the week.

  Next Week

* Next week will be spent finishing any bits that need finalizing
  for Zope 2.2 that we don't finish this week.

* Hopefully next week we can begin making Mike's book public.

Zope Status

  -- by Brian Lloyd

Summary

  We finally beat the todo list and got the 2.2 beta 1 release 
  "out the door",
  http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.2.0b1
  (and there was much rejoicing!).

Last week highlights

7 more collector issues were closed last week, and the remaining 
items on the todo list for 2.2 beta 1 were knocked out. The needed 
hooks for non-invasive virtual hosting support were added, as well 
as better Undo handling, several catalog fixes and some long overdue 
fixes to the way that HTTP HEAD requests are handled that should 
make Zope more friendly to various spidering tools. This week's 
good-buddies-of-the-core:

  o Chris Withers and others for forcing some action on the HEAD
issue

  o Toby Dickenson and Butch Landingin contributed fixes for ZCatalog

  o taz sent a patch to un-screw what I screwed up last time 
I worked on MailHost :^)

Next week

Next week we'll be absorbing feedback on the beta release and planning 
for final. More importantly, work will begin in earnest on the "opening 
the development process" initiative. I hope to get a basic "Zope core 
development"- focused area set up, publish the draft Zope roadmap for 
comment and start working out some post-2.2 plans.

Zope has its own authentication/session management built in. You will 
see this when you set up your first Zope and go to manage something. 
There are a few products out there that let you create better 
login/user management as well as some that you can connect to SQL 
databases or LDAP. A new product in the works it the PTK (Portal Tool 
Kit) that will have a lot of this built into it.

My suggestion: Start poking around Zope.org, read up on the stuff 
there and download and install Zope. That will give you a better idea 
of what you are dealing with.

Re: [Zope] Zope on NT - port problem

| Hi all
| 
| How do I customise the port number that Zope installs to? I'm
| running NT and there is already a service running on the default
| port 8080.

You have a few option...

-P and a number
-P 9000  means you get web on 9080 and you get ftp on 9021 and monitoring
 will be 9099

-w port (for just web)
-f port (for just ftp)

Have a quick look at z2.py for other groovy options you can set.

The easiest way is to tweak z2.py in your zopehome directory. It is
heavily commented; this shouldn't be a problem.

Yes, there is even a zope extension (experimental) for dreamweaver
(check out http://www.zope.org/Members/johanc). Normal working with
dreamweaver is ok, but you'll have to add an extension to your zope
objects to work with dreamweaver (it won't open things without
extensions).

Modify the start value in 
HKLM/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Services//Parameters, by adding a -P or -w at the end of the string.

See other answers for the meaning of -P and -w.

It _looks_ like you have a "broken" object in your top-level 
Folder. "Broken" objects are created when Zope has a problem 
unpickling an object (usually because the add-on product that 
defines the class of the object is missing). Are you sure that 
you got all of your add-on products installed (and any other 
dependencies like external methods) copied to the beta install?

Alternatively, it is possible that one of your add-on products 
is incompatible somehow with the beta (if it can't import 
correctly, for example, then objects created from the product 
would be broken). One way you could probably test this theory:

  o shut down your beta installation

  o cd to your lib/python directory and crank up a Python prompt

  o do 'import Zope'. Look for any tracebacks (though the product 
import process will likely consume exceptions when trying to 
import products).

  o for each 3rd party product in lib/python/Products, try to 
do: 'import Products.xxx' where xxx is the product package 
name. If a product cant be imported, you should get a 
traceback for it (please post it if you get one).

Hope this helps!

Zope 2.2 includes a feature that allows you to mount other ZODB storages at
specific points in your hierarchy (much like you mount things in Unix). You
can store those objects in a mounted BerkeleyStorage, which doesn't do
versions. It's important to note that all of that stuff is fairly new, but
it is available to try it out.

You can't from dtml as far as I know. You might consider not overriding
methods if you need them. It would seem like blurring your design anyway
to me, especially if you go on to using acquisition. But I don't know
what you want to accomplish of course...

Zope can do these things. How exactly you implement it depends on your usage
patterns. There are two easy to use session products (FSSession and
SQLSession) that store the session data in (you guessed it) the File System
or an SQL database. For handling users, there are a few choices. The one
that is most actively being developed right now is LoginManager. It's quite
flexible.

You can check out the in-progress Portal Toolkit to see what some of the
drop-in capability could be like.

You can certainly have multiple ZClasses within a single Product. Some
people recommend not nesting ZClasses, because when you do so you can only
use the nested classes within the top level class... ZClasses can't be
cut-and-pasted, so you're stuck with that hierarchy. If you're sure you only
want to add those classes in that particular way, you can pretty easily do
what you want.

In the WebSim_add method, you would do something like:

this line is already there
 
  ...set your properties here...
   
 ...set your Results properties here...

  


HTH,

Kevin

[Zope] Could not lock database file

zope has encountered an error while publishing this resuource

(,'Could not locak the database file.  There must be \012another
proccess that has opened the file.\012

I had this message before also, when I test with a test mechine.  But
that was my mistake that I forget to put the -p "D:\zope\zope.pcgi" when
start the zope server.
After I put this in, it work perfectly.

However, this time, I did make this argument when start up the server.
I am still can make it work.

[Zope] Parse Text File (newbie q.)

2000-06-14 Thread joel grimes

I'm trying to display the contents of a text file in a DTML document.  It's 
easy enough to display but all the line breaks are removed.  Is there an 
easy way to bring in formatted text?

Thanks

[Zope] Problem with manage_addDTMLDocument(id,[title,file,REQUEST,submit])...

2000-06-14 Thread Frédéric Quin

Hi all,


when I specify the file I want, Zope just copy the name of the specified file
in the body of the DTML Document. It doesn't get the contents of the file...

However, first I wanted to clone an existent DTML Document - situated in my
Product - but Zope always clone it into the current Folder. I would like to
clone it a subfolder of the current folder but it doesn't work. When I try
that, with a dtml-with tag, I obtain the following error :

Error Type: AttributeError
Error Value: 'None' object has no attribute 'importFile'


Here is the part of the code of my method "MenuClass_add" :

 
  
  



MenuClass is my new ZClass herited from Folder
bm is my DTML Document

Thanks
Frederic

[Zope] SuperCannotOwn

2000-06-14 Thread Hellekin O. Wolf

... La suite...

Hello people !

I just installed a fresh v2.2.0b1 and bumped into some annoying problem.

As the security model seems to have been changed, the superuser cannot
own anything.

That means we now need to install a new user with management access to
get started.

The question is :

How to setup an "admin account" that will have the right to add new
stuff ?

*

BTW, when i read the tutorial, there is the following alert prepended in
red letters,
while the content keeps displaying normally -- it seems so.

Thanks for your help !

[Zope] New Zope Site

2000-06-14 Thread Chris Crownhart

Listers,

Just wanted to post a quick note about our companies new web site:
http://www.kaivo.com.  It is 'powered by Zope'.  Zope has proven to be
very powerful (but you all know that already).  We decided to put all
the content for our site in Zope DTML Methods, and the code that backs
it up is all python.  We are using the following products: PTK,
XMLDocument, RSSChannel, ZCatalog and the ZMySQLDA.

Thanks to any and everyone who replied to any of our posts while we
were working on this.  The mailing list is a great resource.

[Zope] getUsers cf. get_valid_userids question

2000-06-14 Thread Geoff Gardiner

I want to show all users who have certain roles / and or permissions (Zope
2.1.6). I can't see how to do this directly, because I can't see how to get
hold of user objects, which I need to carry out has_permission, etc.,
methods.

I can show the userids of all valid users:


  

  


but I can't get all actual user objects because getUsers is a method valid
only for an identified User folder, and doesn't have acquisition.

Should I just go in and code a new get_valid_users in the style of
get_valid_userids, or is there another way? Perhaps there would be a
security implication (I can't think what) but that's not a major issue for
me at the moment.

Thank you,
Geoff

[Zope] Containment or context

2000-06-14 Thread Stephen Harrison

Hi,

I've been trying to piece together a site which exploites acquisition,
but I have come up against a problem.

This basically boils down to the chosen method for acquisiton.

I can have a site with the following structure:

/
+- foo
|  +- stuff
|  +- etc...
+- bar
|  +- more stuff
|  +- etc...
+- baz
   +- and so on

where foo, bar and baz are folder objects, which contain various
methods, etc.

Now, I can construct urls such as:

/foo
/bar
/baz
/foo/baz
/bar/baz
...

and in each of these the child will operate within the context of the
parent.  At least that is how I would like it to work.

But, having read the AcquisitionAlgebra,

http://www.zope.org/Members/jim/Info/IPC8/AcquisitionAlgebra/siframes.htm

and a post to the list a while back,

http://zope.nipltd.com/public/lists/zope-archive.nsf/ByKey/4C6995D8A903E711

I have learnt that acquisition works on the principle of containment
before context.  Unfortunately this is exactly what I don't want.  I
want context before containment, because that is the whole reason that I
am construction urls in this way.  The only reason that foo, bar and baz
are all contained in / is so that they will all be available within the
context of each other (the wonders of acquisition), but once they have
been acquired, the context is all-important.

Imaging that baz produces a set of data.  Imagine also that within the
context of foo or bar only certain subsets of baz's data are relevant. 
So I could go to /baz and see all the data, or /foo/baz and see only the
data relevant to foo.

But because of "containment before context", if I have a property as an
atribute of foo to let baz know which data is important, baz will ignore
it, because there is a property as an attribute of / to define the
global case, which baz will use.

Why is this?  In

http://www.zope.org/Members/Hoekstra/ChangingContexts1

it states that PARENTS is defined as the acquisition parents of an
object.  But this is not true.  The acquisition parents of baz are /
alone, but if I evaluate PARENTS from the url /foo/bar/baz/foo I will
get parents of foo, baz, bar, foo, /.  This is inconsistent with the
idea of containment before context, and yet this is, in my opinion, the
more useful case.

Asuming that acquisition works the way that it does and that it is right
that it should work that way (although I could be missing some reason as
to why that is best), is there some other way by which I can acquire
properties by, effectively, the context route?

Either way, any feedback would be most welcome.

Cheers,
Stephen

Ok, I fixed the problem with files trying to be saved as ATT0001.DAT, but
they're still messed up in Mozilla (which your using, right ethan?) where
they save as getpart (I think this is a Mozilla bug, and not a WorldPilot
bug). I also fixed the bug where if it's an image (jpeg, gif, etc.) it
gets displayed instead of downloaded.  I've attached the patch which fixes
both of these problems.

I also have new RPMs of WorldPilot that has all of my patches applied so
far here: http://www.verinet.com/~arcane/worldpilot/

[Zope] Zope and PTK newbie questions- showing the database items

2000-06-14 Thread sean

I am trying to figure out how to use Zope and particularly the PTK 
to create an Intranet.  I am new to zope and so am unsure of where 
the documentation is located to do the following (wish the PTK doc 
had complete "manager" section):  

Q:  How does one show the various links, files, etc as a separate 
page of links, files, or whatever?  In other words, what is the 
syntax?

Q:  How do you add variables such as catagories to each of the 
PTK items to post so that when you do show them they are listed 
by category?  Again, syntax.

Any general info about where to get info on how to display data 
from the zope database would be great.

Thanks in advance.

Re: [Zope] Costs of implementation

2000-06-14 Thread Simon Coles

>Zope has a sigmoidal[0] (is that the word?) learning curve.

I'd agree with this, especially if you are working on your own.

Based on our experience of creating a *team* of Zope developers, it 
is a lot easier if you can learn in a group.

We built the team up gradually with new members coming in every few 
weeks, and because we all site together we were able to learn from 
each other's experience and bounce stuff around. We also made sure 
that if one person got into a specific area (like ZSQL or ZClasses) 
they shared their knowledge. The mailing lists and the archives also 
helped a lot, in a lot of cases filling in the gaps in the 
documentation.

 From that experience I suspect its easier learning Zope as a group is 
easier then working on your own.

 From a business perspective, although we had some ability to pick our 
projects, we were productive pretty rapidly and its a testament to 
the Power of Zope (and possibly that we had smart guys :-) that our 
customers rarely knew we were one page ahead in the manual This 
was even when compared against working in other tools that we have 
experience with.

So, learn Zope with your colleagues and friends, its easier and sociable :-)

[Zope] Z ODBC and W2K

Hello all,
I'm trying to install the Z ODBC DA product on Windows 2000 Server. I placed the 
.tar into the top level directory of my Zope installation, but when I restarted the 
service, the product did not install. I also tried starting Zope with the .bat file, 
but with the same results. So I copied the installed product from another (working NT) 
Zope installation onto the W2K server, and while it does make the product available, 
the link to the icon is broken, and the db connection doesn't work either. Does anyone 
know how I can get this to work?

[Zope] Post method redirection / Core changes

2000-06-14 Thread Phill Hugo

Hello all,

We recently had a "sales engineer" from Allaire come and talk to us
about Spectra and were quite surprised at how similar it is to Zope. To
be honest the only thing I left with any "ooh, thats neat" feeling about
was their general style of building objects with the admin view
optionally identical to the user view but with icons inserted below
images, content etc to allow immediate altering of the content.

The same stuff is simple to acheive in Zope, almost. Make a ZClass, add
index_html which adds a header, footer and puts render_html in the
middle. Then use render_html to embed it in other docs and index_html to
view it standalone. Add a check to see if the user is logged in and has
View management screens rights, if so give them little icons "in place"
to edit the content and images.

This works fine..


 
 


Now, this part is simple enough but it leads to a problem. The default
methods for updating ZClass properties and images all redirect back to
manage_main by the look of things.

I propose that two things be added to this to allow simple management of
redirection from the update/edit/change methods.

1) All instances of manage_main be changed to manage_workspace so the
default view if given rather then contents_html.

2) That an optional redirect url can be supplied to everywhere this
happens to override the redirect.

Then once a user logs into the site, leaves the admin view after perhaps
joining a version and travels through the site, it has extra icons
immediately allowing them to edit the contents of certain things. The
redirection would take them back to the extended user side view after
pressing submit.

I've looked at Image.py in OFS and this is fairly simple but I thought
I'd suggest it so we could perhaps form some standard on the redirect
url variable that would be passed about.

Any thoughts?

Phill

ps. I've not looked at the DestinationURL stuff properly to see if it
does anything like I'm asking.

or could you direct me to the resource that I would need to do this.  If no, is there

[Zope] Help with Zope/Python Evangelism

2000-06-14 Thread Joseph Santaniello

Hello Everyone,

I've been using Zope and Python in my own projects for over a year now,
and I am convinced well beyond a shodow of a doubt that "Zope Is The
Answer" and have used it for several of our internal applications, and use
Python almost exclusivly for our scripting needs.

Here's the problem:

Our main outside vendor (whom all managment besides me are very happy
with) has a new agenda for forward development: "Industry Standards" such
as Delphi (for backend!) and other things I deem silly. So I need as much
information as anyone is willing to share on Zope/Python implementations
in as large/corporate a setting as possible.

Thanks,

Joe

PS: I've seen all the listings on the Python and Zope websites, but I need

[Zope] sequence-item as a method argument

2000-06-14 Thread Fabio Akita

Hello again

I´m still testing the usability and reliability of Zope. To accomplish this
goal I am developing a very very simple shopping cart. But I got troubled by
something aparently simple. This is the code:

 
  
   
  
 

SESSION['cartItems'] is an array created in another DTML document using the
well known SQLSession product. Here I am retrieving the itens of this array
and passing it to a ZSQL method to get the selected items.

The sqlSearchProduct, alone, works well. If I substitute the inner  for a simple  the block works fine,
otherwise it gives me the following error:

Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource.

Error Type: NameError
Error Value: sequence


Anyone knows what is going on? I think this must be a simple thing.

[Zope] pcgi.pid question?

2000-06-14 Thread kwan


These couple days, I first set up a test mechine to test Zope with IIS
through pcgi.
On this test mechine, things work as I expect.

However, when I move to the main server and go through exactly the same
setup step.  Things become strange.
I got an error said counld not lock the database file.
I check as much things as I can think of.  and I found that.. when I
start up the
Zope on the main server.  under var/ the z2.pid and pcgi.pid is the
same.  It make sense to me since they need to access the same database
file.  However right after I
try on brower with http://localhost/scripts/zope.pcgi, beside the above
error message, I found that the pcgi.pid got changed.

Checking my test mechine, however, no matter what link I click and try,
pcgi.pid still
remain the same as z2.pid.

What's wrong with these?  pcgi.pid suppose to be the same as z2.pid
isn't it?  So what makes the pcgi.pid got changed?

[Zope] Worldpilot and imap problem

2000-06-14 Thread Deryk Barker

Looking through the archives I couldn't find anything which semed
quite relevant, so:

I'm currently running Linux mandrake 7.02 and have enabled the IMAP
(4.7-7) server. I can read/write mail via netscape using imap, so I
presume the setup is OK. (Although i can't quite get pine to talk to
it, maybe something isn't quite right).

Unfortunately, whenever I log onto worldpilot (and yes I have edited
the DOMAIN.py file) the hourglass appears, presumably while attempting
to fetch my mail and top shows me a python process running as zope,
chewing up anything up to 80-90% of the CPU. All that seems to work is
restarting zope.

Trimming the contents of my mailbox down to just 6 messages didn't
seem to make any difference.

Anyone shed any light?

Oh yes, I have applied the imap.py.diff patch to the python library.

[Zope] problem with PTK and LoginManager

2000-06-14 Thread Tim Lynch

Hi,

I can't seem to get PTK to install. When I put both PTKBase and PTKDemo
in the Products directory, PTKBase is OK, but PTKDemo is 'broken'.
The traceback is:

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "E:\I-10\lib\python\OFS\Application.py", line 387, in import_products
product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly)
  File "E:\I-10\lib\python\Products\PTKDemo\__init__.py", line 3, in ?
import Portal, ZODBMember, SQLMember, PersistentUserSource
  File "E:\I-10\lib\python\Products\PTKDemo\Portal.py", line 5, in ?
from Products import LoginManager
ImportError: No module named LoginManager

LoginManager is installed in Products and is listed as OK in the
Control Panel/Products display.

I just did a complete re-install of Zope 2.1.4 (no other products at
this time); I grabbed PTK from the CVS tree, the version of LoginManager
I'm using is what came with the PTK.

I'm running under WindowsNT with zope installed as a service. Haven't
tried things on the Linux side of my machine as I need to get this stuff
working under NT as a deliverable.

Any ideas why Portal.py can't find LoginManager? 
I've tried editing the line in Portal.py from
from Products import LoginManagerto
from Products.LoginManager import LoginManager

but that didn't seem to work

Any help much appreciated.

There is a TinyTables+ product, but da***ed if I can find it thru the

The new presentation of products also means that there is much more text
to scroll thru.

How about an option to present a product listing ordered by name, and

Re: [Zope] sequence-item as a method argument

2000-06-14 Thread Rik Hoekstra




Hello again

I´m still testing the usability and reliability of Zope. To accomplish this
goal I am developing a very very simple shopping cart. But I got troubled by
something aparently simple. This is the code:


  
   
  


SESSION['cartItems'] is an array created in another DTML document using the
well known SQLSession product. Here I am retrieving the itens of this array
and passing it to a ZSQL method to get the selected items.

The sqlSearchProduct, alone, works well. If I substitute the inner  for a simple  the block works fine,
otherwise it gives me the following error:

Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource.

Error Type: NameError
Error Value: sequence



change the line
-  
to
 + 

in the line as it is now, sequence-item is interpreted as a Python
expression, meaning sequence minus item. The second incantation gets the
variables 'sequence-item' from the current namespace _

Re: [Zope] Worldpilot and imap problem

2000-06-14 Thread Bryan Stillwell

You could download pynetd and setup port forwarding from some port (1430
would work) to port 143.  Then setup WorldPilot to use port 1430 when
checking for new mail.  Everything will behave the same, but now you can
watch all the imap commands being sent by WorldPilot.

You can get pynetd from here:
ftp://ftp.tummy.com/pub/tummy/pynetd/pynetd-1.18.tar.gz

You'll have to modify the pynetd program to turn on local echo by doing
this:

Around line 292 you have:

try:
data = src.recv(10240)
dest.send(data)

Now change it to say:

try:
data = src.recv(10240)
print 'got:"%s"' % data
dest.send(data)


Then add this line to pynetd.conf-dist:

:1430 127.0.0.1:143


After you do both of those steps you can start up pynetd like this:

# ./pynetd -f pynetd.conf-dist


You can then do a test by telneting to your server on port 1430:

# telnet imap.myserver.com 1430
Trying 192.168.1.28...
Escape character is '^]'.
* OK Courier-IMAP ready. Copyright 1998-2000 Double Precision, Inc.  See COPYING for 
distribution information.
1 login bryan MySecret1
1 OK LOGIN Ok.
1 logout 
* BYE Courier-IMAP server shutting down
1 OK LOGOUT completed
Connection closed by foreign host.


Now the xterm running pynetd will look like this:

# ./pynetd -f pynetd.conf-dist
got:"* OK Courier-IMAP ready. Copyright 1998-2000 Double Precision, Inc. See COPYING 
for distribution information.
"
got:"1 login bryan MySecret1
"
got:"1 OK LOGIN Ok.
"
got:"1 logout
"
got:"* BYE Courier-IMAP server shutting down
1 OK LOGOUT completed
"
got:""


You can now try it in WorldPilot and Netscape and see where it's messing
up/hanging.

Hope this helps...  If you can't figure out why it's hanging at a certain
IMAP command, feel free to send me the pynetd output and I might be able
to tell you.

Everything in quotes is taken as a python expression, therefore Zope
wants to evaluate "sequence - item"; this won't work because sequence
and item aren't defined.

Try:



_ is the current namespace, where Zope will find the value of
sequence-item.

Help !! 

I've inadvertently created a version paradox.  I created a version and
joined it,  then I realized that I did a stupid naming mistake I tried to
UNDO the creation of the version.  It allowed me to undo the creation of the
version,  however I was in the version at the time,  and now I am stuck in
the version and cannot get out.  I cannot create a version of the same name
and delete it either.  I am stuck.  HELP !!

How can I exit a version that doesn't exist?

If it's not already there, put your suggestion in the Zope-web tracker.

http://www.zope.org/Members/hathawsh/TinyTablesPlus

Note that you can search the rows using either TinyTables or
TinyTablesPlus by calling the table itself.  For example, on a table
that has the fields "first_name", "last_name", and "gender", you can
call:

mytable(first_name="John", last_name="Doe")

Of course, this is extremely limited when compared with ZCatalog, etc.

I need to provide a logon screen more informative than the default

any information about it).

I have tried it and have to figure out by myself the table and column
names and types. I have created one Gadfly connection (only for testing

create table users (
usernamevarchar,
passwordvarchar,
domains varchar,

)

I suppose it is correct, but I'm not sure (it worked).

I have tried the GUF Walktrough and it doesn't works for me (the very
last part, trying to logon as 'fred', doesn't work). I'm using SiteRoot,
Apache proxying a zserver, and a Squid cache. All in the same machine...

Re: [Zope] ZCatalog in python (getting closer)

2000-06-14 Thread ed colmar

I am getting closer to having a working catalog.  Thanks everyone, all your
hints have been really helpful.

The catalog is automatically created when I add a new instance of my class
to a folder

My sub-classes now inherit: (CatalogAware, Persistent, Implicit, SimpleItem)

It was the SimpleItem combined with the code used (in squishdot) to add an
item that was preventing the catalog from finding it.  When I changed it to:

ob=PromoterPost(id,title)
ob.id = id
ob.title = title

self._setObject(id,ob)

It can now be found by the catalog when I manually update it in the
management screen.  It also now exists in the zope management screens,
which is forcing me into better object management. =P

Still, the catalog does not automatically update when a new object is added.

can someone explain where the index_object() call should be?  In my case it
should be in the PromoterPost.__init__ method correct?  It does not belong
in my base class' call that creates the object right?

Thanks again!

Hmm.  superuser can't manage the folders? They should be able to.  I assume you
mean by "almost works" it doesn't let you manage?

First, you can always disable siteaccess by using __no_before_traverse__ as the
first item in the path.

Second, once you set this up, you cannot manage the folder except from it's url
( host1.penguinpowered.com/manage should work)

These are kind of stabs in the dark. If you could show me some urls that don't
work, then maybe I can do some more.

Look for a DTML file called "byline" -- I think it is the culprit.

Re: [Zope] LoginManager HOWTO?

2000-06-14 Thread P Chandra Sekhar


Hi Cesar ...

I'm not trying to tell about login manager, because I'm still trying. But I
can tell you about how to use RDBMS server and playing with data. You need a
database adatper(I'm using ZODB, there are several.you can choose as you
like) and ZSQL method. Connect database from your control panel and mention
the same in ZODB database connection, now use ZSQL method for retrieving the
data and for any other SQL inputs. You can use Z Search Interface also for
interface.

Good Luck,
Chandra Sekhar.P

Re: [Zope] getUsers cf. get_valid_userids question

2000-06-14 Thread Shalabh Chaturvedi

Hi:

In an attempt to solve the very same problem (Get a list of all users with
certain role) I created an external method. It walks up the acquisition path,
at each level checking the existing acl_users (if it exists) for all users with
the role.

I can't say this it is the best way to do it, but it worked for me.

Here's the code:
==
from App.Common import aq_base

def getUserIdsWithRole(self, role):
 "Get all userids having a role. Local roles on self are considered too."
 item=self
 dict={}
 while 1:
 if hasattr(aq_base(item), 'acl_users') and hasattr(item.acl_users,
'user_names'):
 for user in item.acl_users.getUsers():
 if user.has_role(role, object=self):
 dict[user.getUserName()]=1
 if not hasattr(item, 'aq_parent'):
 break
 item=item.aq_parent
 keys=dict.keys()
 keys.sort()
 return keys
==

Hope this helps,
Shalabh

Oops.  I was rushing this morning.  I was looking for the words plus but
the actual description is TinyTable with update.

Also, it looks odd when some descriptions are graphics, some are large
fonts, and so forth.

The category listing ( ordered by name rather than ascending date )
would be very useful.
