Zope 2.5b3 Management Tabs
by brian.r.brinegar.1 09 Jan '02

09 Jan '02

I've noticed in a fresh install Zope 2.5b3 management tabs which users do not have access to view show up. In the past only management tabs that a user had permission to view the associated action showed up. Is this a known issue? or a new feature? --Brian Brinegar ECN Web Technician MSEE 104 A 494-3106 http://www.geeksoft.net/

"Cache detail" error

Clicking on "Cache detail" in the Debug Information Control Panel, I get the following traceback: Zope Error! Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource.

sessionDataManager should create it's temp/xxxx
by Darrell Gallion 09 Jan '02

09 Jan '02

I went to the collector, filled out the form. Only to find out I need and account to submit the form!! The "Transient Object Container" is transient.. I wanted the SessionDataManager to create it's Transient Object Container as needed. Added properties to the SessionDataManger to make this possible. ===== Darrell Gallion __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE video emails in Yahoo!

The basic problem is that b_m_t is a database modification time, not an application-meaningful time. You pointed out that there are application-meaningful times that are not captured by the database time. In addition, there are database modifications that are not meaningful to the application. Operations like export/import (copy/paste), version commit/abort, transactional undo, etc. cause the database times to change without making application-meaningful changes. Also, there could be state changes in an object that are not meaningful to the application. I think that a much better approach, if modification time is important to your application, is to store the application modification time in the object as a data attribute.

Well, I know _I_ think Session support is important (hint: I wouldn't have spent the effort on SQLSession otherwise). If the decision was made to take the CST package and change the interface before making it part of the preinstalled set of Products, I'd _strongly_ urge that the documentation for it be updated.

ghosts of removed products haunting ZSQL Methods?
by John Ziniti 09 Jan '02

09 Jan '02

I used to have the Product TrackerBase installed and have removed it. Now, however, attempts to access the "Advanced" tab of ZSQL Methods is broken because a chain of events attempt to get info about a the non-existent Product: lib/python/Shared/DC/ZRDB/dtml/advanced.dtml calls manage_product_zclass_info ../ZRDB/DA.py.manage_product_zclass_info (line 546) calls self.aq_acquire('_getProductRegistryData')('zclasses') One of these items is the dict: "{'id': 'Tracker', 'meta_type': 'Tracker', 'product': 'Tracker', 'meta_class': <ZClass instance at d55af0>} Then, line 548 calls "if hasattr(z._zclass_,'_p_deactivate')". The attempt to access z._zclass_ fails because this product doesn't exist. 1) the call to z._zclass_ doesn't actuallt do anything except: ## Eek, persistent 2) Is this schizophrenic state my fault? 3) How to rectify the problem (Make *all* of Zope know that TrackerBase is gone)?

Session Tracking in 2.5
by seb bacon 08 Jan '02

08 Jan '02

I thought it was time to catch up on the CST stuff which has made it into the core, only to find that it's only *based on* Chris' CST stuff. And I can't find a fishbowl project anywhere describing the rationale, apis, whatever... Is there a fishbowl for this? Or was session tracking implemented as a guerilla project? seb

_getProductRegistryData('zclasses') returns non-existent Products -- permission to muck around?
by John Ziniti 08 Jan '02

08 Jan '02

My ProductRegistry has references to products which no longer exist in my Zope installation. This causes a variety of problems in lots of different places when other products try to get more information about all the products in the ProductRegistry (obviously). 1) How does this occur? 2) Is it OK to put my boots on, get in there and manually delete entries which refer to non-existent Products? TIA Ziniti
