Haven't heard of anything similar and it does sound like a bug.

Pop it into the collector and see what happens :-)

How can I compare the type of 2 variables in a python method?

I was not able to get ZMySQLDA with MySQL-pyhton to run.
Instead I used the mysqldb sourcecode that came with ZMySQLDA and symlinked

I think what you're looking for is getPhysicalPath() and
unrestrictedTraverse().  Store object2.getPhysicalPath(), which returns
a tuple, in object1.  To find object2 again, call
object1.unrestrictedTraverse(stored_physical_path).

Note that this only works in Zope 2.2.x+.

[Zope] href on a local file

2001-01-11 Thread tilo . schwarz

Hi everybody,

it's now my third day with Zope and I'm already pretty happy with it. Finally I 
got external python methods running with passing parameters to them and getting 
return values back. Although there is a lot of documentation, I couldn't find 
any about the Zope internals. Does anybody know where to look for such 
documentation?

Now my question concerns local files. We do image processing and have zillions 
of images. I'd like to do some "have a page of thumbsnails and click on it to 
see the full image" kind of web page. I saw the examle thumbnail code in 
http://www.zope.org/Members/michel/ZB/ScriptingZope.html, but that code puts 
the thumbnails into the Zope Database within the python script. I'd like to 
avoid that, because with our zillion images this would bloat the database 
pretty much. 

If I got the docs right, it's normally not possible to publish a local file 
with Zope, only objects in the database can be published (correct?). But I 
would like to use a href like

http://mymachine/images/.pgm">
http://mymachine/images/thumbs/.pgm">

in the dtml. If I understand it right, the product "Local File System" would be 
a possibility to do that. Is it the right way to go, or does anybody have a 
better / other solution? 

Tanks for any help!

BTW: I read about dropping external python modules in some future version of 
Zope. For us, the main point with Zope is, that you can build a web front end 
for a bunch of python modules we have. Thus, from our point of view, the 
dtml-binding possibility to python modules is essential.

Tilo

[Zope] Zope vs. java solutions : looking forward ?

2001-01-11 Thread Henk Schets

Hi,

We are planning a major update of our site (i.e. building a new one).  At
the moment our site is based on php,cgi, MySql and Apache on Linux.
However, for the new site, we are considering other 'platforms' like Zope or
Enhydra.  I find Zope an elegant solution for our new site because we will
be relying heavily on non-technical people contributing articles for
publication.  But the problem is this : the development will be made by a
small commercial firm (the guys who work there are friends) and they are
biased towards a java solution because they think this will be a standard
for the future.  They do not want to invest in learning Zope en end up in
not being able to sell their acquired knowledge in this.  I should note
that, at the moment, they have no experience in Java nor Python, so they
will have to learn one or the other.
The problem I will be facing is the maintenance of the site and adding new
features.
What do you guys think ?  Does Zope have a future with respect to e.g.
Enhydra (this is Python versus Java for internet applications)?   Does
someone have experience with both and can you comment on the learning curve
?


Thanks,

Henk

[Zope] RE: SQL Method, dtml-with and namespace weirdness

2001-01-11 Thread Mayers, Philip J

Heh. Oh well, you win some, you lose some! I appear to be losing some -
maybe I should drink less caffine?

I can work around the problem for the moment, but either:

1) I *totally* misunderstand how dtml-with works
2) It's misbehaving itself under some circumstances

To recap: two SQL method returning [different] (name,domain) are used like
this:


  &dtml-name;  - POINT A
  &dtml-domain;
  
&dtml-name;- POINT B
&dtml-domain;

  &dtml-name;  - POINT C
  &dtml-domain;

  


This will print:

name1
domain1

name2
domain2

name1
domain1

That is: *inside* the dtml-with, the variables "name" and "domain" appear to
be reset to their values in the *outer* dtml-in tag, not the innermost. This
*only* happens if both SQL methods return variables named the same, and it
*only* affects those two variables (so, I can work around it). Is this
expected behaviour?

Anyone who wants to see this problem can have Manager access to a test
subtree I setup that reproduces the problem exactly. I realise it's far more
likely that the problem lies with me - but what is the problem?

Also - your comment about SQL methods vis. the DTML namespace has cleared up
a longstanding confusion of mine - thanks!

Phil

Usually, I complain that problem reports are too terse.
But, your's was very big, such that I did not read it
carefully. It is very difficult to get it right for everyone.

Just a remark:

  SQL methods do *NOT* look at the DTML namespace *AT ALL*,
  just at REQUEST (or the expliciitly passed keyword arguments).

  Thus, "dtml-with", "dtml-let" and friends are all ineffective
  with respect to ZSQL methods.

May be, that explains your problem.
May be not, as I am not sure, that you need the values indeed
inside a ZSQL method.

I can assure you: "dtml-with" does work.

[Zope] Downloading All Zope products

2001-01-11 Thread Jerome Alet

Hi,

I was bored by the current search interface for downloading Zope products:
you have to spend hours just clicking to download lots of products. I want
to put Zope and the maximum number of available products on a CDROM to be
able to do demos and so on to people not connected to the Net.

I've decided to do something to solve this problem, so I've created the
"Zope Complete Products List for easy batch download".

You can find it at http://www.zope.org/Members/jerome/ZCPL

This document dynamically lists all available Zope products (from
zope.org) and for every product put one and a single link to its latest
version archive.

It also explains how to download all Zope products available in
one Wget run, but please consider not making this an habit because the DC
folks don't seem to like that (see http://www.zope.org/robots.txt).

DC folks, if you find this document should be destroyed now then just do
it, I don't want to put your servers on their knees. 

Hoping this will help someone else. Any comment is very welcome.

Re: [Zope] PoPy Installation. Where's the BEEF?

2001-01-11 Thread Steve Spicklemire


Did you move this Zope from it's original location in  /usr/local/zope?
I'm guessing you did.. and those paths are in the .pyc files.

try:

find /usr/local/EcoZope -name "*.pyc" -delete 

then (optionally) rerun w(o?)_pgci.py which will (among other things)
rebuild the .pyc files. If you don't, Zope will just be slower for a while
is it rebuilds the pyc files as it imports them (mostly at startup I 
would guess).

Re: [Zope] type in python methods

2001-01-11 Thread Luciano Ramalho

> The instruction "if type(var1) == type(var2): " doesn't work.

It does work:

-
Python 1.5.2 (#0, Jul 30 1999, 09:52:18) [MSC 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Copyright 1991-1995 Stichting Mathematisch Centrum, Amsterdam

>>> z = 99
>>> type(x) == type(y)
1
>>> type(x) == type(z)
0
>>>
-

How isn't it working for you? What is the context? What kinds of
variables are you trying to compare?

Are you aware that type() only knows about primitive types (for example,
all class instances are of type 'instance')?

[Zope] How do I get the size of an item ?

2001-01-11 Thread Dimitris Andrakakis

...anyone ?

Say I have these folders:
/
/news
/news/files
What I need is, from a dtml method in /news, to get 
the size of an object (a file, say /news/files/file01.pdf) 
in /news/files.

Thanks in advance,
Dimitris

Re: [Zope] Zope vs. java solutions : looking forward ?

2001-01-11 Thread J. Atwood

Just some quick thoughts. (I have worked with both)

- This is not about Java vrs Python since that is a different 
discussion. This should be about Zope vrs Enhydra.
- Zope has a great future which can be shown by Digital Creations 
success, Zope involvement and activity
- In terms of getting a site up and running there is no question that 
you can get a Zope site running up faster than a Servlet based site

You might want to take a look at the semi-old but still very 
interesting Tomcat vrs Zope benchmarks 
http://www.zope.org/Members/BwanaZulia/benchmarks.html  (Tomcat is 
the servlet engine behind Enhydra).

J

I'll be intrested to know how you get on, as I am trying to configure it on

Using analog (http://analog.cx) against my Zope 2.2.2 logs, I found that 
the standard analog definition of the Common Log File Format didn't exactly 
match the Z2.log format. Specifically, Zope produces a host address 
followed by a colon, which confused a few of analog's reports. I currently 
use the following in my analog.cfg file...

Of course not, otherwise I hadn't made it by myself. I thought it was a

Perhaps putting a link to your own page on the "All Products" page at

On my box only DA is symlinked to a different location. The rest of my

[Zope] Pub. Company trying to patent object publishing?

2001-01-11 Thread sean . upton

Hi folks,
Not trying to hijack the list for a rant, but I thought this might be of
interest to some folks.

Belo, a media company that owns a variety of TV stations, newspapers, and
online operations, looks to be trying to patent what looks to essentially be
object publishing (in a similar sense that Zope has - content-neutral
objects published to multiple media).  The irony of this all is that I found
this in an article on the Newspaper Assn. of America's web site; the article
embraces open-standards (XML, industry standards, etc), in the news content
industry, and the author of the story is Belo's CTO.  It seems to really fly
in the face of truly embracing open standards to patent such ideas
(especially in-light of the fact that publishing wit XML really demands OO
techniques in the first place); and I think that there is plenty of prior
art in Zope.

Supposing their patents are approved, could/would a company such as Belo
start using legal tactics the second that a company or individual someone
started developing an open-source product on the Zope platform that cut into
the news-content vertical?  Or if someone at a newspaper wanted to use
Zope's object database for a data-store or content-neutral repository, would
they be a target?

The second to the last section of the article is what I refer to, at:

http://www.digitaledge.org/monthly/2001_01/newlanguage.html

I think Zope would be prior art.  I'm curious to see what everyone else
thinks.  Sorry to bring up a non-technical question on a mostly
technical-related list, but I think this is something that needs to be
discussed...

Thanks,
Sean

a) The code itself is quite well-documented ;-)

There is a product called ExtFile/ExtImage that does exactly what you need. 
But you could also build your own solution very easily, e.g. using Apache 
(or the new Tux webserver for extra performance ...) to serve the images and 
just manage the upload via Zope/LocalFS.

There is a tendency towards making more stuff available over the web (e.g. 
"replacing" External Methods by web-manageable "python scripts". This might 
make External (Python) Methods more or less unnecessary (BTW: Most of them 
could just be uploaded to Zope/the ZODB). But the full-fledged Python 
Products (or modules) you put into the Products folder will definitely not go 
away soon. That's how most of the major Zope applications are developed.

Very nice, thanks. Nevertheless, I still dream about some categorized
Zope products directory, which could be downloaded with one step and put
on the CD-ROM (I mean sth like your page but with content categorized -
like the zope products page on zope.org do - and annotated with recent
change date and required zope version).

Maybe at least adding two recent attributes to your page wouldn't be so
hard?

RE: [Zope] Zope vs. java solutions : looking forward ?

2001-01-11 Thread sean . upton

Frankly, it is a lot easier to program in python; it is much more forgiving
in a lot of senses.  If your developers like the idea of Java because it is
OO, have them consider python's strong abilities, and the fact that they
will be working with a persistent object system / ODB that can make their OO
code much more than a filter for relational datasets.  That said, if your
developers like java because it runs in a VM on several platforms, Zope is
cross-platform, and I guess Zope could be considered similar to a JVM: a
platform for running cross-platform code.  

I don't think Java is a wise direction for a small firm; at least in Zope,
you can start off with simplicity, and graduate to bigger solutions without
a huge investment in lots of developers in the future.

What kind of site do you have?  For e-commerce, you are going to have heavy
use of relational databases, but for publishing articles, you might want to
consider using the ODB, something you are not going to get with Java
solutions...  I use Zope with XMLDocument and custom ZClasses for content,
and it is a lot easier to get things done quicker that way...

Hi,

We are planning a major update of our site (i.e. building a new one).  At
the moment our site is based on php,cgi, MySql and Apache on Linux.
However, for the new site, we are considering other 'platforms' like Zope or
Enhydra.  I find Zope an elegant solution for our new site because we will
be relying heavily on non-technical people contributing articles for
publication.  But the problem is this : the development will be made by a
small commercial firm (the guys who work there are friends) and they are
biased towards a java solution because they think this will be a standard
for the future.  They do not want to invest in learning Zope en end up in
not being able to sell their acquired knowledge in this.  I should note
that, at the moment, they have no experience in Java nor Python, so they
will have to learn one or the other.
The problem I will be facing is the maintenance of the site and adding new
features.
What do you guys think ?  Does Zope have a future with respect to e.g.
Enhydra (this is Python versus Java for internet applications)?   Does
someone have experience with both and can you comment on the learning curve
?


Thanks,

Henk

On my box only DA is symlinked to a different location. The rest of my
products reside in a child directory of the main Zope installation. I am
only running one Zope instance. This shouldn't be a problem, right?

>From Zope management database connection Test tab, on valid SELECT queries
it tells me that there was no data matching my query. On invalid SELECT
queries (ones on nonexistent tables or columns) Zope raises the correct
error originating from MySQL, such as "Error Value: (1146, "Table
'somedatabase.sometable' doesn't exist")". The trial queries I am testing
through Zope all work from the MySQL command line so I know they do in fact
return data. It appears that error messages are making it back to Zope from
MySQL but real query results are not.

I did some more searching and see that two other posters on this list have
also had this identical problem, but no solutions have been posted (at
least that I can find).

ONE IDEA: I had already spent some time on installing DA before I found
your RPMs. Previous to this I was trying some older, more complicated
methods outlined on Zope.org and started installing some of the necessary
components for installation. I did clean up before installing from the
RPMs, but perhaps I missed something and some residue lingers. I know how
to uninstall RPMs, but other than that how do I make sure I have a clean
slate before trying to install anew? I think there is quite a number of mod
dependencies here. Also I am confused on a basic piece of Zope
configuration: my box has its own python and Zope has its own python, why
two and are they sharing modules? If you want to add a module for both
installs of python do I have to install in both? If I install a python
module in my box's python can Zope's python find and use it? I am confused
on this basic question.

I also did this as (contributed previously to the list) to fix a install
but broken DA. Directory, site-packages, now exists in two locations. Is
this a problem?

When uploading a file to Zope I am getting an error about commit_sub. 
I uploaded some other files to the same folder but am having problems 
with two in particular.
He only difference I can see is that the others where 10k to 60k and the 
two problem files are 100k and higher. 

Is there a limit on the file size that can be uploaded or is there 
another explanation?

I haven't been following this thread, so I apologize in advance for any

Several weeks ago I had an existing mysql fail as you describe after I

RE: [Zope] MySQLDA and MySQL-python - patch needed?

2001-01-11 Thread Bill Welch

A binary distribution comes with python built-in so that it will run
without the installer having to also go get python. PYTHONPATH is the key
to understanding module sharing. Unless you (or the packager) change
something, a binary Zope uses only the modules in the built-in python (or,
at least, has the built-in lib/python first in PYTHONPATH). In the same
vein, the two pythons don't share modules unless you change somemthing,
e.g. PYTHONPATH (or maybe both their PYTHONPATHs end in
/usr/local/python). Just to double check what's going on in your Zope, use
this code to create an external method and visit it with your browser.

import sys

def sysPath(self):
buff = ''
for dir in sys.path:
buff = '%s\n%s' % (buff, dir)
return buff

[Zope] Authentication problems on FreeBSD with Apache

I have recently installed Zope on FreeBSD running the Apache web server.

sure there are things that I've missed in what I've seen, and the

Are you saying that the valid select queries are suppose to return data, but
in the test screen they don't?  If you can run a query and get a response,
that's a pretty strong indication that both the module and the DA are
installed correctly.

It's quite possible that the binary RPMs only work properly with certain
versions of MySQL for whatever reason.  Perhaps if you compile the module
from the src RPM
(http://dustman.net/andy/python/MySQLdb/0.2.1/MySQL-python-0.2.1-1.i386.rpm)
you can eliminate one more factor.  You'll probably need to have MySQL-devel
installed as well as python-devel.  The only reason I point to an older
version of Andy's module is because that's what I'm using and I know it
works for me.

You could probably have many versions of python that share modules.  I'm
using my everyday python for Zope, but I know that's not possible for some,
because Zope needs certain options that the "default" version may not have
compiled in.  If your Zope is running, the MySQLDA product isn't broken, and
you can run queries on the test page, then I can't see how it's a python or
Zope problem.  I may just be blind, though.

As long as the python you're using for Zope can find the module you expect
it to find, you should be fine.

I must have been very lucky with my installation since I've never had these

Re: [Zope] Authentication problems on FreeBSD with Apache

2001-01-11 Thread Bill Welch

First off, bypass apache and go straight to zope - typically port 8080.
Did you make note of the superuser name and password the installation
script produced? If not, use zpasswd.py to create a new one. I'm presuming
that you're using 2.2.x. Don't forget to create a manager user and switch
to it after you get logged in as the superuser. Search on zope.org for
'apache'.

I think what you're looking for is getPhysicalPath() and
unrestrictedTraverse().  Store object2.getPhysicalPath(), which returns
a tuple, in object1.  To find object2 again, call
object1.unrestrictedTraverse(stored_physical_path).

Note that this only works in Zope 2.2.x+.

Much obliged Ivan, I have managed to do it now.  I ended up creating
my_editForm and my_edit methods within the zclass and then using the source
from a builtin edit form as my template.  One thing doesn't work now though,
and that's making the textarea wider/narrow/etc.  Obviously, this is because
I have static values put in for the dimensions of the text area, but I'm not
sure how to alter this to make it work... any pointers?
my_edit looks like this btw,







Does this seem appropriate?

cheers

Re: [Zope] logging: Can I switch it off?

2001-01-11 Thread Andy McKay

Run z2.py with the  -r flag. This may be too much for your needs.

-r

Run ZServer is read-only mode. ZServer won't write anything to disk.
No log files, no pid files, nothing. This means that you can't do a
lot of stuff like use PCGI, and zdaemon. ZServer will log hits to
STDOUT and zLOG will log to STDERR.

Odd... this is a Sockets level error, meaning that the operation (in this

block (stall).

As to what would cause this from the documentation I can find, accept() 
shouldn't produce this error.  And even if it can, it would be a poor program 
design indeed that called accept() when there were no connections pending.

All I can think of immediately is someone went to connect, but dropped the 
connection before the server could react.  Now, the timing we're talking 
about here is likely _very_ slim...  but possible.

Other than that, I'd actually have to look at the source.. (o8

[Zope] hasRole bug or feature in 2.2.?

2001-01-11 Thread Ron Bickers

I'm having a problem with AUTHENTICATED_USER.hasRole()

I have a user with the role 'Member' defined at the root level (and nowhere
else).  I also have the following DTML method at the root level:

  
  You are a Member.
  
  Your are NOT a Member.
  

When I first request the protected document /Bogus/membersonly, I'm prompted
to log in.  When I do, I get access to the /Bogus/membersonly document.
Then when I request /Bogus/isMember, it says I am a Member.  However, when I
request /isMember, it says I am NOT a Member.  Anywhere I request isMember,
other than in the /Bogus folder, I am NOT a Member, even though the user is
defined at the root level with the Member role.

If I then request a protected document /membersonly, it shows me the
document without prompt.  After I do that, when I request /isMember or
/AnyFolder/isMember, it now tells me I am a Member.

Why does it not recognize that I'm a user with the Member role anywhere on
the site until I access a protected document at the root level?  Is this by
design or a bug?  If by design, what's the reasoning?

Thanks!

[Zope] Acquisition loops and web robots

2001-01-11 Thread Andrews, Martin

I have run into several cases where authors at our site have accidentally
employed acquisition to link documents in such a way that an infinite tree
of URLS are possible - for example:

/a/foo contains a link to "b/bar"
/b/bar contains a link to "a/foo"

This really causes a problem with our web indexer (htdig) hits the site and
indexes pages like:

/a/b/a/b/a/b/a/b/a/b/a/b ... a/foo

Has anyone found a way to avoid these sort of problems - other then just not
indexing zope sites? I already limit htdig with the max_hop_count setting,
but that it tricky to tune correctly (and still index all valid files).

The problem came up about 1-2 weeks ago.

Sorry for the wrong hint!

I fear now, that Zope simply looks for the products that *ARE*
available in the "Products" subpackage and does not
do anything about other products.

If you think, this is a bug, put it into the Collector.

Re: [Zope] hasRole bug or feature in 2.2.?

2001-01-11 Thread Chris McDonough

You're gonna laugh.  Get ready.

You didn't protect the isMember document.  It's viewable by Anonymous.  The
Zope security machinery short-circuits authentication for resources that
don't require it.  This means that when you view a resource that's
unprotected, you view it "as Anonymous".  Anonymous doesn't have the Member
role, so you see "You are NOT a Member" when you view /isMember.

I don't particularly like this behavior, but it seems not to bother anyone
else.  I think it should authorize you and set AUTHENTICATED_USER if you
pass in auth info regardless of the protection on the resource you're trying
to view.

You know Zope's integrated online help?

There you would find that files have a method "getSize"
that returns their size.

In the upcoming Zope bock (-> zope.org), you could read
that "dtml-with" can be used to access objects in "foreign"
contexts:

I'm not sure this makes sense.  If I protect isMember, then anonymous won't
be able to determine if they're a member without being prompted to log in.
Isn't that true?  That's not what I want.

Also, why does it behave differently after I view a protected document in
the root?  isMember is still not protected, but it then correctly returns
that I have the Member role anywhere in the site.

You can tell a socket that you do not want to wait.
If you did, then the socket will return EWOULDBLOCK
when you do something that would let you wait.

Usually, you have a "listen" above the "accept".
When the "listen" returns, you know, there is a connection
to "accept". However, if the process that wanted to connect
dies, it might be (with low probability) that "listen" returns
but when "accept" is reached, the request went away.

Because probability is very low, I do not know whether
this is your problem. If it is, however, then you
could simply ignore the error and restart the "listen".

Thank you!

But it displays the children hierarchy without an indication
what children are full blown processes and what are threads.

Nevertheless, your message was good for me.

[Zope] way to cleanup form input text?

2001-01-11 Thread Chris Beaumont

Is there a simple way to clean up text that's input to HTML forms in Zope?
I have a situation where one of my users is copying text from her web 
browser and pasting it into Zope.

I'm sure this is a common problem..

The input text ends up having runs of whitespace characters in it 
that I'd like to prune down to one each..and I think it's also been 
the source of some non-standard, unwanted characters that cause 
problems if they end up getting into our database..

I'm sure someone else has encountered this problem before..what's the 
best way to fix it? The string module doesn't seem to have what I 
want.. (or at least I couldn't find it..)  The worst problems seems 
to be long strings of spaces or tabs that I'd like to turn into 
single spaces..(each)




Thanks!

Now, that is a nice problem description.

The only rational explanation would be that your
"aFolder" magically has access to "name" and "domain" that
happen to have values "name1" and "domain1".

I have a dtml-documentish zclass and have created a custom edit method for
it so that I can do an automatic reindex when each instance is edited.  I
created this custom form by simply copying the source html that is generated
for the standard edit form, and then replacing the static parts of what I
copied with various  inserts (see below).  This seemed to go
according to plan until I realised that something strange is happening when
I try to view this edit form for an instance of the zclass.  In most cases,
everything seems normal, but when I try to edit an instance that has a
property set to 'private', my 'privacy' method kicks in and redirects me
away from the edit form to my standard 'Restricted Page'.  The redirection
is written into the text of the instance I am trying to edit, so I expected
that by using , the actual source would get placed in
the text area without being processed.  This is what appears to happen when
the instance does not have the 'private' property.  I guess therefore, my
question is, am I using document_src correctly?

thanks very much

tim

[Zope] ZMySQLDA and aggregate functions on Win

2001-01-11 Thread Markus Kemmerling

I have a problem with ZMySQLDA and aggregate functions in combination with 
grouping on Windows.
When I say:
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM mytable GROUP BY myfield;
I get an KeyError 'Unhandeld'.

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM mytable;
works fine, so does
   SELECT myfield FROM mytable GROUP BY myfield;
but not the combination of both.
Also on a linux machine the error doesn't occur. Of course I tested the 
queries from the mysql command line.

Any help?

If you store the path to the other object as an attribute on its
referer, then you can use the OFS.Traversal interface to fetch the
referred object on demand.  E.g.::

  class Foo:

bar_path = None

def setBar( self, bar ):
"""
Save bar's path so we can find it later.
"""
if bar is None:
self.bar_path is None
else:
self.bar_path = bar.getPhysicalPath()

def getBar( self ):
"""
Use stored path to retrieve bar.
"""
if self.bar_path is None:
return None
return self.restrictedTraverse( self.bar_path )
#^_could be 'unrestrictedTraverse', in trusted code

The product you downloaded (version 0.0.2) was built for Zopes

[Zope] 2.3.0a2 - missing a file

2001-01-11 Thread corey


I just downloaded and installed Zope 2.3a2, after setting
up a new database connection ( ZMySQLD ), I went to to
test it and lo-and-behold! No customDefaultReport.dtml for
which to display the results!

Anyhow, I just grabbed it off the 2.3.0a1 tree and put it 
in it's rightful place ( lib/python/Shared/DC/ZRDB/ ), and 
things work fine.

Anyhow, just a heads-up... 

What is the "proper" channel for directing such bug reports?

By the way -- kick-ass bit of work guys.  I'm really 
impressed with the rapid development of Zope, as well as 
it's feverishly dedicated community. And the new management
interface ain't half bad either!


Beers,

Corey

Re: [Zope] MySQL

2001-01-11 Thread Petter Enholm


Hi,

I did not get mySQL running using the HOW-TO below. It seems to be outdated,
as there is not need for patching anymore. The following HOW-TO is newer;
http://www.zope.org/Members/MikeP/ZMySQLDA. I had mySQL up and running in no
time when following this HOW-TO.

If you are using mySQL on WIN32 use the following HOW-TO:
http://www.zope.org/Members/philh/mysql, and download all the files this
HOW-TO refers to, instead of compiling your own (if you don't know exactly
what you are doing).

I don't want to sound negative, but someone should really tidy up these
HOW-TOs for mySQL and remove the old ones. What caused me most trouble when
installing mySQL for the first time was to find the correct HOW-TO.

Q: Are there any person responsible for the HOW-TO's?

Suggestion: Now that there are many persons working with Zope, writing
HOW-TO's etc - would it be an idea to create categories for the different
HOW-TO's and that each category should have a maintainer, responsible for
removing old HOW-TO's or at least clearly state which version of the
products they are valid for? I could take responsibility for one category
... I think this could improve the quality of the available
documentation.

Best regards
Petter Enholm

It does work:

How isn't it working for you? What is the context? What kinds of
variables are you trying to compare?

Are you aware that type() only knows about primitive types (for example,
all class instances are of type 'instance')?

You are testing "type" in the python interpreter, but try to test the same
in the product "PythonMethod Ver. 0.1.7".

[Zope] Help getting zope to do frames!

2001-01-11 Thread Scott Chapman

I am trying to get some frames to work where you can load a url and 
have a frame around it.

I created a folder called test. I tried loading http://ipaddress/test and 
I get a recursion of frames and have to stop it loading.
Here's the contents of the test folder.  I'm very new to Zope and 
HTML so I'm probably missing something which should be obvious 
but I've been trying this for quite a while and can't figure it out. Can 
someone help me get this working?

I want this to be set up so that I can open a URL and have the frame 
automatically loaded around it.  Depending on the URL, a different 
frame will be loaded.  It seems this is something Zope should be 
ideal for.

Inside test are 3 DTML methods and 2 DTML documents:

DTML Methods:

id: standard_html_header
title: Standard Html Header
Frames in Rows





id: standard_html_footer
title: Standard Html Footer


id: index_html 
title: index



DTML Documents:

id: main
title: Main Frame Contents
Main Frame Contents 1

Main Frame Contents 1



id: top
title: top_frame
Top page of Frame

 This goes in the top frame



Thanks!
Scott.
