ZODB object upgrades
by alan milligan 05 Nov '03

05 Nov '03

Hi, Over the last month or so, I've rather wonderfully managed to corrupt my ZODB with artifacts of my Currency class that no longer exist. This is due to: (i) moving the module to a different package (twice) (ii) renaming the module (iii) changing it's inheritance hierarchy (having removed all Zope-awareness from class has caused loads of setstate issues in regard to either __basicnew__ not found, AttributeErrors, and problems with non-derivation from AcquireImplicitWrapper) I now desperately need to write a parser to convert all of these nasties to ZCurrency types. I've come up with the following ExternalMethod - whereby I've defined a __currency__ attribute in each obselete incantation's product (Currency object's are used in the spirit of DateTime rather than within ObjectManager containment structures): from Acquisition import aq_base from Products.BastionBanking.ZCurrency import ZCurrency def repair(container, counter=0): for (k,v) in container.__dict__.items(): if hasattr(v, '__currency__'): setattr(container, k, ZCurrency(v._currency, v._amount)) counter += 1 for object in container.objectValues(): for (k,v) in object.__dict__.items(): if hasattr(v, '__currency__'): setattr(object, k, ZCurrency(v._currency, v._amount)) counter += 1 if hasattr(aq_base(object), 'objectValues'): repair(object, counter) return counter However, it doesn't seem to find anything to convert. Does anyone have any ideas?

Re: [ZC] 382/ 2 Reject "500 error incompatible with MSIE"

Well, you can patch your instance so that all 500 errors is made into something else. I wouldn't recommend it though. > Not doing anything will assure future people like me plenty > of pain and frustration. Arguably, returning a 500 error with > an authentication request is questionable, I agree with that, and I can't see any reason to do that. The standard way of displaying a login page is to send "302 Moved Temporarily" and redirect to the login page. The login page is displayed with a 200 OK.

Zope doesn't know enough mime types.
by Romain Slootmaekers 04 Nov '03

04 Nov '03

Yo, Zope doesn't know enough mime types, and there's no easy way to add them add runtime since you removed the add_type(...) method from mimetypes.py mime types that spring to mind are: .ra .ram .rm : audio/x-pn-realaudio .rpm : audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin .jad : text/vnd.sun.j2me.app-descriptor .jar : application/java-archive I'm sure there must be quite a few others. Maybe someone can add the lot of'em. This also is vaguely related to: http://zope.org/Collectors/Zope/969 TIA, Romain Slootmaekers

Re: [Zope-dev] ZODB object upgrades
by alan milligan 04 Nov '03

Thanks for the reply, you've raised a couple of points I need clarification upon... >Attributes added to product code are not automatically present in the >objects defined by that code, only those created by that code. Methods, >however, will be present on all instances of a given class. I won't bother >to connect the dots for you. These attrubutes whilst not stored in ZODB *are* still available as the persistent data is bound to the class during the setstate call. Is this not so?? >Are you sure that you have a product for all those potential orphans out >there? Otherwise, the above won't work: you'll need to look for distinct >signature somehow, presuming those objects even function: I don't know how >true orphans behave. Yes, if I am to believe the Logger in that it's not throwing up any nasty ZODB messages as it's unpickling all the storage. So, has anyone got some ingenious way to upgrade this persistent data into the new object type??

Hi all - I'd like to try to have another bug day next Tuesday (Nov 3) to make up for the one that was cut short last week, in preparation for a beta 2 release of Zope 2.7. I know its short notice, but every little bit helps. If you can make it even only for an hour or two it will be much appreciated. thanks! Brian Lloyd brian(a)zope.com V.P.
