Oops, bug. It didn't work in ZClasses. And while I was fixing that, I 
modified it so that if you select more than one object all will be 
converted and you'll get back to the object list.

A bug in a hack. How embarrassing. Here's the new External Method.

Where can we get a mapping avout which permission is needed to do
something and what allows each permission depending on the object type ? 
Is it in a doc somewhere ? Of course this is impossible to do for every
existing Zope product (near 250), but at least for the default installed
ones this would be wonderful. 

IMHO the permissions is the most confusing part of Zope, and I'm not aware
of any clear and complete document on this subject. For example Chapter 6
of Michel and Amos Zope Book ("Users and Security") doesn't cover this (or
maybe I've not read it carefully). 

feel free to send me any pointer to the doc.

[Zope] Converting Python Methods to Python Scripts

[Itai Tavor]

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone is planning to add automated migration of 
Python Methods to Python Scripts (maybe with Zope 2.3 final)? Or 
maybe there's something like this in there already that I missed?

Anyway, for now I created a simple hack to do this - it's not pretty, 
but it works. In case anyone's interested, this is how to do it:

* Create the following External Method at the top level of Zope, named M2S:

from Products.PythonScripts.PythonScript import PythonScript
from string import strip

def M2S(self, ids, REQUEST):
 method_id = type(ids) == type('') and ids or ids[0]
 method = self._getOb(method_id)

 if method.meta_type != 'Python Method':
 raise 'HackError', 'Selected object is not a Python Method'

 title = method.title
 params = method._params
 if not type(method._body) == type(''):
 body = method._body.read()
 else:
 body = method._body

 self.manage_renameObject(method_id, method_id+'X')

 id = self._setObject(method_id, PythonScript(method_id))

 script = self._getOb(method_id)
 script.ZPythonScript_setTitle(title)
 script.ZPythonScript_edit(params, body)

 return REQUEST.RESPONSE.redirect('%s/%s/manage' % 
(REQUEST['URL1'], method_i
d))


* Edit lib/python/OFS/main.dtml. Find these lines:

   
   
   

After them add this line:

That's interesting.  I don't have OFS/Cache.py and it seems to be working

[Zope] Volunteer internship for Zope programmer

[Fred Wilson Horch]

Dear kind Zope folks,

If you are

 * computer literate,
 * interested in programming or already a programmer,
 * looking for a volunteer opportunity or an independent study project,
 * eager to publish code and work on a development team, and
 * able to invest a few hours a week between January and May 2001
   reading, writing and documenting open source object-oriented web
   application software (specifically Java, C and Python code for Zope
   running on Linux),

you may be interested in the attached announcement.

Thanks for the bandwidth,

Fred Wilson Horch   mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Executive Director, EcoAccess   http://ecoaccess.org/
P.O. Box 2823, Durham, NC 27715-2823phone: 919.419-8354

Spring 2001 EcoAccess Technology Associate Internship

EcoAccess, a public charity working to enhance public understanding
of our natural environment, is offering a volunteer Technology
Associate internship program for people seeking the opportunity to
enhance their software development skills.

Selected Technology Associates will receive a loaner Linux system to
allow them to develop free open source software for the EcoAccess
database-backed web site.

Designed for Associates who have some programming experience,
the internship runs from January 8 through May 4.  Our software is
published on SourceForge and licensed under the General Public
License.

How to Apply

The internship is open to anyone who has any programming experience
or training, with preference to those residing in the Triangle area of
North Carolina.  Apply by e-mail to

 Fred Wilson Horch, Executive Director
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Please include the following information:

 * Your name
 * Preferred e-mail address
 * A summary of your education and relevant work experience, if any
 * Your experience with open source software, if any
 * Your other time commitments between January and May

If we are interested in working with you, we will request a code
sample before making a decision whether to accept you into the
program.

More About the Internship

Our Technology Associates will learn how to develop for Zope, a
leading Open Source web application server.  Part of the internship
will be devoted to learning and improving Zope itself, including
documenting aspects of its interfaces.  The other part will be devoted
to writing applications in Python, Java and C to support the charitable
EcoAccess project.

Technology Associates must have at least dial-up Internet
connectivity.  Four interns who are in the Triangle area of North Carolina
(Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill) can receive fully-configured development
machines for use during the internship.  (Associates may also use
their own Linux machines if they prefer.)  The loaner machines are
best described as tomorrow's software running on yesterday's hardware.

Our Technology Associates will get hands-on experience building
object-oriented transactional web applications.  Specifically, our
Associates will write programs in Java, C and Python that run on Linux
and use PostgreSQL databases.

This internship is made possible through the generosity of several
members of the Triangle Linux Users Group (TriLUG) who donated the
hardware for our loaner machines.  We appreciate the help!

Re: [Zope] ZWiki hierarchy seems to be broken

[Simon Michael]

Wait! Is this what you've been seeing ?

http://joyful.com/zwiki/link

ie no title at all ? That's a BUG, thank you. 

Looks like certain pages, like the above and
http://joyful.com/zwiki/page%20about%20nothing , get an empty string
from context() and don't appear in the map.

Both the above point to SandBox as their parent, and SandBox points to
MyNewTestPage, and MyNewTestPage points back to SandBox. Maybe
something about that tight loop. When one goes to SandBox/backlinks
and clicks reparent, all pages look normal again.

What happens is that if I have this:


def get_file_name(self,REQUEST):
s = REQUEST.form['attached_file'].filename
contents = REQUEST.form['attached_file'].read()
return s

I get a Zope error for the External Method, when I reload it by clicking on "edit"

Ahhh. That's good to know. So the header was there, but showing no
parents. And ideally all parent links would get adjusted on page
rename or deletion.

Frank is your problem similar ? Does reparenting a few pages improve
the situation ?

It is a "ZPublisher.HTTPRequest.FileUpload" object.
>From its (source) documentation:

File upload objects are used to represent file-uploaded data.

File upload objects can be used just like files.

In addition, they have a 'headers' attribute that is a dictionary
containing the file-upload headers, and a 'filename' attribute
containing the name of the uploaded file.

You should not rely on the fact that the data is stored somewhere
on the server.

"REQUEST.form['attached_file']" should be a "FileUpload" object
and as such have a "read" method (beside many others).

Thus, "REQUEST.form['attached_file'].read()" should return the
file content.

In an earlier message, you said, it did not.
What happened?

Leaving off index_html causes Zope to add a  to the head.  That's
the only difference I can think of.  Your page doesn't get cut short in my
IE 5.00.2314.1003 (128 bit encryption).

Re: [Zope] stupid file upload question

[Joh Johannsen]

Thanks for the responses.  My first message was a little unclear...

Here is what I am doing in more detail:

On the client side (me), I have a windows machine, and I am uploading a
file:  "E:\test\my_file"

On the server, I am running Zope on Linux.  My upload form looks like this:












So I use this form, and I think the file gets uploaded, though I'm not quite
sure where it goes.  The "Customize" DTML gets called when the form is
submitted, it looks like this:


 

filename: 




And the "get_file_name" is a Python External Method, which looks like this:

def get_file_name(self,REQUEST):
s = REQUEST.form['attached_file'].filename
return s


Everything works great so far.

Now I want to do something with that file I just uploaded.

What is its name on the server?

The "filename" in the field I am pretty sure is NOT the name of the file on
the local system, since when I look at it, it says "E:\test\myfile" and this
is on a Linux system, so there is no such path.  That is the name file had
on my Windows system.

What sort of object is this "REQUEST.form['attached_file']"?   Is there some
way to find out this sort of thing when you have a Python object?  (I'm new
to Python)

Is that even the place to look to get the name of the file on the server
after it is uploaded?

That's why I mentioned the quote from that How-To (which the above is
basically a copy of):  "In you python external method you can now reference
REQUEST.form['attached_file'] as a normal file. You can perform things such
as read() on the object. "

This makes it seem like whatever is necessary, it is very easy, but there's
some detail that I am missing.  Maybe I just don't know what a "normal file"
is...

Regards,

JJ

Re: [Zope] charset from forms input

You should not expect a "charset" parameter to the
"multipart/form-data" content type.
The parameter can appear in each single part (when applicable)
not the multipart wrapper.

HTML 4.0 specifies:
   As with all multipart MIME types, each part has an optional
   "Content-Type" header that defaults to "text/plain". User agents
   should supply the "Content-Type" header, accompanied by a
   "charset" parameter. 


 > ... detecting used charsets ...
We use UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 encodings.

Our experience is, that browsers use the encoding for form posts
that they used to display the form itself.
Of cause, the browser must have been explicitly told, which
encoding it has to use for form rendering. Otherwise,
it uses the default encoding (defined by the user).

To be precise:
  If we send a page (containing a form) to a browser
  with a "Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8" HTTP header,
  then we will get the form data back in an UTF-8 encoding.

  If the page has instead a
  Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" HTTP header,
  the delivered form data is encoded in ISO-8859-1.

This is as I would expect it to be.

[Zope] IE5 / Medusa bug?

[seb bacon]

Tempting fate by claiming a bug...but although I'm sure I'm at fault
here, there's no sensible reason for the results I'm getting.

When I view one of several different pages with IE5, the last 11 bytes
don't reach the browser.  I've got a couple of other people to try it
out.  One of them reported the same symptoms, the other didn't.  I
don't get it with Netscape.

I'd *really* appreciate it if anyone who has IE5 could have a go at

  http://test.jamkit.com

and let me know (you can tell if the bug's happened if the source ends
abruptly with something like 'http://test.jamkit.com/index_html works :S

- It's not related to the bad HTML in that example page (I've tried 
  pages with perfect HTML)

- It's related to how I've built the page (the Zope Welcome screen is
  fine, other pages built using the same product don't work.  The
  product I'm building is a folderish thing with lots of extra 
  navigational services)

- it's always the last 11 bytes that are missing, however large the 
  page is

- I've sent exact copies of the HTTP headers to the server, using
  telnet, and there's no problem there

I imagine the fact that I can make it work by adding index_html is the
most telling point, but it's not telling me anything ;)
 
I'll continue my research by eliminating elements until I've nailed down
exactly the bit that's messing it up.  Right now, though, I have to go
to bed.  Meanwhile, any comments?

Cheers,

seb

I read from that, that you do not use DTML objects.
For *them*, access to attributes is granted for the
"View" permission.
Apparently, this is not true for all objects.

As others told you, you can use a header and footer
to standardize layout.

   The header would define the top and left part of your
   site (i.e. your first table column); the
   bottom your right part of the site (i.e. the third table
   column) and the bottom part.
   The content between header and footer would define
   the center of the page (i.e. your second table column).

If this does not provide enough flexibility, you
can look into ZClasses.

   The page specific content would go into properties
   or content items of the ZInstances.
   The ZClass' "index_html" would combine all these
   elements into the final page.

Please tell us, how it does not work (in fact, it should work):

   Did you get an attribute error (read) or was the result wrong?

You must use the 'enctype="multipart/form-data"' and
'method=post' form parameter to upload files. Did you do that?

Just pop in them old:

or you could:

And then just make shure that your "header_script" method doesn't do any

I expect the "manage_editProperties" is the culprit.
I further expect that neither of your classes has
a "manage_editProperties". Therefore, the
"manage_editProperties" of the enclosing folder is
acquired. It changes the properties of this folder.

[Zope] Core Session Tracking Development Release 0.1

[Chris McDonough]

Hi,

A development release of the fruits of the "core session tracking" Fishbowl
project
(http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/CoreSessionTracking/FrontPage)
is available at
http://www.zope.org/Members/mcdonc/Products/CoreSessionTracking.  It allows
you to keep state across requests for anonymous users (much like FSSession,
SQLSession, HappySession, etc.), but it is capable of storing sessioning
data in the ZODB or in RAM.

You need to be running a pretty recent Zope 2.2.X to use it.  I've tested it
continually against the current trunk release, and it works against that.

Feedback appreciated!

Thanks,

Chris

That is *exactly* what standard_dtml_header and ...footer are
for.
Together, they *are* your template.

You *include* these in every document (using the  tag. They'll show up in your documents at run time.

Put the default template into the root folder and all your DTML
documents will acquire it. In a sub-folder, you can either do
nothing (then the acquired header and footer will be used), or
override these with a folder-specicic template.

See the Zope book, it explains it pretty well.

RE: [Zope] site structure (fwd)

[sean . upton]

Getting fairly familiarized with namespaces and acquisition is going to be
useful here.

You actually will need to do 2 templates (one for the footer, and one for
the header) in the case of writing a "wrapper."   That said, objects in Zope
(like a document, in this case) behave based upon their context or
environment.  A DTML document, when it is told to render something with
 looks for foo in it's current namespace (i.e. the
folder it is in), and if it doesn't find it, it then works its way upward
(by looking in the namespace of the folder that is the parent of the folder
it just looked in before).  When it finds foo, it renders that method (or if
foo is an attribute, it renders its value).  

Let us suppose that your document is called bar, and looks like this:

 


bar is in a folder hierarchy that looks like this (using URL syntax)

http://mysite.com/folder1/subfolder/bar

bar would first look for foo as an attribute of it's own namespace (i.e. it
would look to see if you defined a custom property called foo in the
properties of the document).  If it found it, it would render it, but let's
suppose that it does not find it, so it has to look in another namespace.

So, it moves up to the next namespace (subfolder) looking for foo, as either
a method of that folder or a data member (attribute).  If it finds it, it
renders it.  If not, it moves up to folder1 as the next namespace, and
perhaps that is where it finds foo; in that case it renders foo.  Seems
rather simple, and in some cases it is, but what if foo is a dtml method and
looks like the following?

Title:

Where does foo look for title? Not in folder1, where foo resides, but in in
bar's namespace, and indeed, since dtml documents have a title attribute,
that will be rendered.  If, instead of title, we had an attribute named
something like "what" but there was no attribute named "what" in bar, it
would look through the namespace stack (starting with the namespaces of bar,
then subfolder then folder1, then the root folder, etc), until it found what
it was looking for.

This, I hope, explains acquisition well.  If you were to apply this to
templating strategies, you would realize, that (as long as you kept
standard_html_header and standard_html_footer in sync) that you could do
some powerful things with your site navigation.  Consider the following
example:

Suppose you have a sports news site, and you publish stories about baseball,
football, and basketball.  In the upper right hand-corner of your document
(i.e. in the header portion) you have an 32x32 icon image that is a picture
of a football, basketball, and baseball, respectively.  Otherwise, you
wanted to use the same template for all of the documents.  

Suppose that you have a folder structure like this:
-/
   -basketball
   -baseball
   -football

In this case, you could have a standard_html_header in the root folder /
that creates the top portion of your document, so you only have to use one
template, and that the template might have code that looks like this:





In this case, you could have an image in each folder (basketball, football,
baseball) containing an appropriate image with the id of sports-icon.gif.
This is useful, because now, one template is rendering sports news stories
different folders differently, depending upon the context of the folder they
are contained in.  

In this simple example, you don't even need to create a different
standard_html_header for every folder to create different results, but can
rely upon Zope's built-in acquisition smarts to work for you.  Applying this
in practice, takes some playing around with, but once you get a clear idea
of applying this, you can create some very intelligent standard_html_headers
that do a lot of work for you.

Hope this helps,

Sean

   No, you should separate design (template) and content. Actually, it is
possible even without creating a python product - you put content (HTML
fragments) into small DTML Documents, and define design (template) using
DTML Methods - standard_html_header/footer and other methods, your custom
methods.

   Think, for example, you want to create a site with the following design:

-
 | ||
left | CONTENT1| right  |
column   | | column |
 | special ||
 | fature  ||
 | ||
 | CONTENT2||
 | ||
-

   Easy! (Thanks, Zope! :)

   You define "left column" in standard_html_header, "right column" in
standard_html_footer, in every folder put two pieces of content and feature
into 3 DTML Documents, and call these Documents again from
standard_html_header (or DTML Methods that will be called from
standard_html_header).

   In outline, your standard_html_header will looks like the following:


I'll skip most HTML-related things like tr td etc

RE: [Zope] site structure (fwd)

[sean . upton]

You may also want to take a look at HiperDOM as a templating mechanism as
well.  I haven't used it, but in looking at the Wiki and the examples, it
looks like it would do what you are looking for, and from all accounts I
have read, this will be the "official" Zope replacement for DTML for
presentation logic in the future (relegating DTML for logic use, along with
Perl and Python methods), and has a lot of cool features that allow you to
create a template with mockup data that actually renders your presentation,
replacing the mockup.

http://www.zope.org/Members/lalo/HiperDom

I'm working on a content-management project in which I am just starting to
do real user interface work, and I am likely going to try switching over
most of the presentation from DTML to HiperDOM.  Anyway, creating valid
XHTML documents for templates is an exciting idea, especially in the sense
that this decreases the learning curve for a designer needing to work on
presentation, but not logic - that is a definite need in my organization.

Cheers,
Sean

That is *exactly* what standard_dtml_header and ...footer are
for.
Together, they *are* your template.

You *include* these in every document (using the  tag. They'll show up in your documents at run time.

Put the default template into the root folder and all your DTML
documents will acquire it. In a sub-folder, you can either do
nothing (then the acquired header and footer will be used), or
override these with a folder-specicic template.

See the Zope book, it explains it pretty well.

So i can have a general structure for all my site and when create a

   You misunderstand how the Zope works. You think that basic building
block is a piece of HTML (probably you think to put it into DTML
Documents). No. In Zope basic building block is "instance of some python
class". A DTML Document is an instance of DTMLDocument class, e.g.
   If you develop your own set of classes, you'll just build Zope sites
creating instances of these classes - you put HTML fragmenst just into

Use single quotes around 'MOUSE'.

In SQL, single qoutes are for string literals, double quotes for
column names (there are people who think spaces in column names
or mixed lower/upper case column names are neat NOT).

[Zope] INTEGER manipulation with INTERBASE

Hi,

When I query  my db with gvib adaptator I obtain integer value as 1L, 2L !!!
I would like to query the same db with these resulting previous integer but 1L or 2L 
are not understood by an interbase db.

Any solution to transform these strings in integer on the fly or others propositions ?

Re: [Zope] rss

[Andy McKay]

Actually I went one further and hacked SiteSummary so that it remembered the
url the rss is located at (rss_url). Then I wrote a quick reload method.
Then in dtml I wrote a method that finds all the site summaries and reloads
them. So my python script is down to two lines:

import urllib
print urllib.urlopen(/reload)

Or something like that. It also means anyone can add news feeds on the fly,

I came across links that recommended recompiling both MySQL and the MySQL DA.  I
did so without too much difficuly.  The batch compile scripts did not work, but
compiling through the MicroSoft IDE did work.  The source code I pulled down
required the Microsoft compiler, not gcc++.

I still have the download files.  I could also send you the results of my

have ZPoPy and it works fine (I use it only for light tasks).

You have to install the Python interface, not only the Zope product.

Difficult to help without more details :-)

Remember to install both the Zope product (ZPoPy) and the Python
adapter (PoPy). AFAIK, there is no RPM :-( To compile PoPy, you need
the postgresql-devel package. Give the traceback (in the Products
Management window) if there is an error in Zope. Or use a Debian :-)

Although I agree that Zope misses real templates (like in M4 or, to
take a more Web-centric example, in WML
, there are several workarounds:

1) if you need "standard" elements between header and footer, a bit of
  discipline from the page authors (which can be helped by tools like
  HTML-kit, where you can define a template for the new and empty
  page):

  
  ... Content here
  
  .. More content here
  

2) DTML methods allow you to replace a lot of what would be
   document-specific elements (such as context-dependant navigation
   bars), helping to stay in the header/footer paradigm. On the other
   hand, they are very complicated to use properly.

The whole renaming mess has been unpleasant.

The real problem is that method has a technical meaning in Python
(and perl) that predate any usage in Zope.
It happens that Python Methods do not have the same properties as
methods in Python.  This was felt to be too confusing.

But, Methods do not have any technical meaning in SQL, or in DTML.
So, it was felt that there was no large gain and much potential 
confusion in renaming something that people had been using for
some time only to make it analogous to the renamed Python Method.

I still want to see a thingy patch applied!
Long live Python Thingies!

DTML and ZSQL Methods (and the older Python Methods) act as though they are
bound methods of the object on which they are called.  Python Scripts aren't
bound to any particular object, although they have access to their context,
their container, and their selves.  There could be a future class of DTML or
ZSQL objects that behave this way, but they would probably be better named
Templates than Scripts.

   Go to Control Panel and click on this broken product. Now see a

   Why hard? Not hard at all - develop your own set of classes, make it
into a Product, and use instance of these classes instead of DTML
Documents. Actually, there is nothing special in DTML Documents - they are
instances of DTMLDocument class, nothing more. Creating your own type of
document is not harder, IMHO.

I think you misunderstand him. He is actually right.

Some things are pretty hard to do in zope, because of the header/footer
principle.

Making a global look to a site can be pretty difficult if it doesn't fit
nicely into a header/footer structure, with a main area being the pages'
unique content.

If I where to do it in regular Python I would use special classes for
special layouts. That is hard to do in Zope.

[Zope] Difference between Methods and Scripts?

[Hamish Lawson]

I see that the latest version of the O'Reilly Zope book now talks about
Python and Perl *Scripts*, but refers still to DTML and ZSQL *Methods*.
Does this reflect some actual conceptual difference between a Script
and a Method, or is it simply because of the burden of also renaming
DTML, ZSQL, etc?

I understand that it is recommended that logic be implemented using
Python/Perl Scripts, while DTML Methods should now be reserved for
presentation; but I wasn't sure if that could be the rationale for the
Scripts/Methods division, since ZSQL Methods don't really fall into the
presentation category.

If the difference is explained in the book, please excuse my having
missed it; if not, I'd welcome an explanation, and perhaps it would be
worthwhile including it in the book too.

But that way if i want to change the structure, i have to change on every
page.
My ideia was to create a template(3 colums) where i add objects (dtml
documents).
If i want to change the site structure to 2 colums i only change the
template !

Indeed. What am I supposed to do with that? Why is the 'title'
property of the object unauthorized? (The object itself is viewable by
Anonymous.)

The relevant line seems to be:

  File /usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/DocumentTemplate/DT_Util.py, line 331, in eval
(Object: title != '' and
   AUTHENTICATED_USER.has_permission('View',_.getitem('id',1)))
(Info: title)

and the full traceback is:

  You are not authorized to access title.


I had to drop most of my DTML methods for the experimental sites I use
to "sell" Zope to other people, they're too hard to use. DTML methods
brings me back to sendmail.cf editing: great in theory but only a few
people (after an agreement with the devil?) can do what they want with
it.

There is a HOW-TO for this:  How-To: ZMySQLDA on Win32

Search for it on www.zope.org. I run Zope and mySQL (3.23.28-gamma) on
Win95. Advice; download the files as specified in the how-to. I tried to use
the .dll file that we're installed with mySQL  - crashed Python/Zope. Also,
remember to store Python files in correct Python directory if you have
installed more than one version / installation of Python.

A common problem for us Zope newbies. You read ten times the

and everything will become clear. (Asking a few stupid questions on

[Zope] mySQL DA on Win32

[Lee Reilly CS1997]

Hi,

Zope is currently being installed on the Unix machines at my uni but it
won't be available for a while. However, I have set up a mySQL database

only access the database from uni so I must have a database adpater

I have seen the mySQL DA on Zope.org but I understand that it "does not

Re: [Zope] HTML formatting from a text field

Thanks to all the people who answered.
I couldn't wait to find the proper product so I went the shorter way.
Being not a developer, I just borrowed the code from this known site,
expecting that you real coders could write a finished Zope product.
My needs were simple: let authorized IE-PC users to paste html-formatted
text when needed and in WYSIWYG mode, while having the webmaster to
pay attention to design and layout using Dreamweaver and Zope.
Here you'll find the sample and the code:

There's a pending job (from the original code) and it is to enable

Not with Debian package because port 8080 is already use by wwwofle.
The default port is 9673.

Re: [Zope] Start with Zope

[peter bengtson]

To start Zope you do that on the commandline or as a service.
To start _working_ with it you use your webbrowser.
If you installed Zope on port 8080 (most likely I think), go to
127.0.0.1:8080 to see you Zope.
To work with it, you go to 127.0.0.1:8080/manage

If you get into the management interface but have problems with adding stuff
and userrights: Search the mailing list or browse the How-Tos for entries
about SuperUser accounts and Managers.

Have you "read lots of things about Zope"? Nice to hear ;)

   You don't need to "start" it if it is already running - just connect to
it with your browser. If you installed it with default settings, point your
browser to localhost:8080/manage, enter your superuser password (did you
created one while installing?), login, goto acl_user folder, create a user
with Manager role, stop your browser (close all windows), restart he
browser, goto the same location, enter your manager's password - and viola!
Start creating objects - Folders, DTML Documents and Methods, etc.

ZServer (aka medusa) is protocol agnostic;  I would look at the
Request/Responses there, plus their equivalents in
lib/python/ZPublisher, and try to fold in Python's gopherlib
module with them (check out ZServer/medusa/http_server.py, as well).

That would be really great.  I like to use the Zope-Debian packages
and I don't want to patch and recompile them after every Zope release.
This would be more work then necessary for many people in my opinion.

Kind regards

[Zope] Start with Zope

[Pierrick PONS]

Hello,

I'm a newbie with Zope and maybe the question I will pose is really stupid but 
please help me.
I'd like to use Zope with Linux ( I'm under a Debian), I installed Zope but I 
can't start using Zope to make a new web site.
I verified that Zope is running but I don't know how to start this program to 
start building my new web site.
May I have to configure something ? I have read lots of things about Zope but 
I wasn't able to start ... please help me ...

Thanks a lot
I hope you'll help me.

   RSS Channel does not protect Import, so you don't need user/password, I
think...

May I add: "... in an incredibly unreadable and hardly understandable

What Stephane asks for would be very nice, IMHO.

If you hit cancel when the dialog box pops up, you'll get an error
message. If you view the HTML source of that error message, there'll be
a python traceback in there which should provide the information you're
looking for...

[Zope] How to debug access denials?

[Stephane Bortzmeyer]

I have problem with Zope security model and I would like to know the
best way to debug Zope when access is denied. 

I have two experimental sites: on one of them, anonymous users can go
everywhere. On the other, the permissions *look* exactly the same but
anonymous users can only see the home page and are denied access to
subfolders (more precisely, Zope asks a password). I assume one DTML
method, in the second site, is doing something forbidden (anonymous
has "View" and "Access content information").

Is there a way to get an extended log, such as "anonymous user denied
because index_html called standard_html_header which called getData
and getData is a database connection and they don't have permission to
use database connections"?
