Well, whoever packages the Win32 binaries needs to re-package them properly.
OR we need to be told that Data.fs.in should no longer be used.
In which case, we need to change the testing package.

cheers,

Re: [Zope-dev] Trouble populating a dictionary of dictionaries

From: Anton Hughes [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 After playing around for too long on it, I can't seem to get it to work. I
 even tried pre-filling the d-o-d with empty strings. I just don't
understand
 what I am doing wrong.

Your not thinking object oriented enough. Encapsulate, encapsulate,
encapsulate. :-)
Make objects of everything instead, and thank me later. :-)

Then you index the objects in a ZCatalog so you can do searches.

Re: [Zope-dev] Some Zope distributions are missing Data.fs.in

2002-09-11 Thread Stefan H. Holek

Same thing on Debian. 'Data.fs.in' is missing there as well. This is a 
problem for me as the ZopeTestCase relies on a working Testing package and 
error reports start to trickle in...

AFAIK, 'Data.fs.in' already contains things like the root Application 
object and the Control_Panel. If no base is given to the DemoStorage, these 
objects would have to be created every time. Also, 'Data.fs.in' is only 
75kb and setting up a test ZODB from it is very fast. Using a large(r) 
Data.fs file as base for DemoStorage slows things down _considerably_.

I am wondering how getting rid of Data.fs.in is supposed to look like, 
and for now am all for advising the packagers not to break the Testing 
package. ;-)

[Zope-dev] Logging in as admin and impersonating another user - is it possible with Zopes sec policy?

2002-09-11 Thread Dario Lopez-Kästen

Hello!

I am wondering if it is possible to write a userfolder that does the
following:

For certain categories of users, for instance Teachers, while keeping their
current authorisation of Teachers, I need to let them impersonate a user
with lower authorisation than they currently have, say Students.

So a logged in Teacher could for instance examine what a particular student
sees in a Student portal (i.e. previewing it as would that particular
student)

Is this possible with Zopes current securtiy mechanisms?

This is not correct.  Data.fs.in is in /var/lib/zope/Data.fs.in.  As
part of the postinst, it is copied to /var/lib/zope/var.

Good to hear that!
However, I have received the following report:

---8---

 I do have a 'Data.fs', 'Data.fs.lock' and 'Data.fs.tmp' files in the
 '/usr/lib/zope/var' directory, but no 'Data.fs.in' file. =( Is this bad?

 My zope is 2.5.1 and I'm using python 2.1.3. I installed zope using the
 debian apt-get command...

You don't need it; it merely provides a bootstrap of what Zope does on 
startup if there is no Data.fs anyway.

Matt,

You need Data.fs.in to run unit tests. The Testing package does not work 
without it. See lib/python/Testing/custom_zodb.py.

FWIW, I'm looking into removing that requirement.  With a tweaked 
custom_zodb.py and minor changes to the sessioning machinery, all but 
three tests pass.  (And if I recall correctly, the failing tests are ZEO 
tests.)
