zpatterns: rackmountables must be of-wrapped
by Jephte CLAIN 24 May '00

24 May '00

Hello, I believe items got from a rack have to be wrapped in context of the rack. I've been bitten by this (and it hurts!). When I try to use items from DTML, only the superuser can use it, even managers can't access the objects. When I wrap the items in the context of the rack, everything is fine. So: retrieveItem, createItem use vanilla objects getItem, newItem wrap objects before returning them regards, jephte clain minf7(a)educ.univ-reunion.fr

ZCVS Mixin class... feedback sought.
by Steve Spicklemire 24 May '00

24 May '00

Hi Folks, This might be a dumb idea.... but I thought "what the hell?". Anyway.. I don't know if this has already been done, but I just uploaded an 'alpha alpha' class that allows maintainence of individual Zope objects in a CVS repository. You need to set up the repository outside of Zope, but once it's there to can really manage stuff with it. ;-) http://www.zope.org/Members/sspickle/ZCVSMixin Let me know what you think... if you want to help... if this is the dumbest thing you've ever heard of. ;-) Also.. I really try to keep up with the zope lists... but it's hopeless. If you email me directly... I'll get back to you much sooner. thanks, -steve

Traversal Interface?
by Chris Withers 24 May '00

24 May '00

Hi, Just wondering if the new traversal interface is going to make it into 2.2? I'm hitting the usual ZCatalog/SiteAccess problem and I'm wondering whether or not to build Evan's patch into Squishdot 0.4.0 or wait for the traversal interface? cheers, Chris

Log-parser
by Morten W. Petersen 24 May '00

24 May '00

I'd like to parse the var/Z2.log file, and being a bit lazy, I just tried to slap in an Apache log-parser utility. This doesn't work however, are there any utilities that can? If there aren't any, why not change the log format to the standard Apache log format? -Morten ------------------------------------------------------------- How to reply to email: http://home.sol.no/~vidaandr/news/OBSquoting.html (norsk) http://home.sol.no/~vidaandr/news/FAQquoting.html (english) Who is the bigger fool?

Please Help!!! - HelpSys
by Lena 24 May '00

24 May '00

Hi, everybody! There's a folder in Zope :\lib\python\HelpSys with Zope help. If I am not mistaken it is available in every version of Zope and can be published this way: http://localhost:8080/HelpSys I have failed to figure out how its methods collect data to be published. It looks like they search through Zope folders and files, but it's just an idea. Could somebody explain me that..?? I actually need to create a simple web-editor, something very similar to HelpSys, but I need to link tree items to the folders I create dynamically in Zope. Also, is there any python version containing Globals, HTMLfile etc modules used to publish Zope..?? And if not, how can I test my modules in pyhton then??? I would really appreciate if somebody could help me, I really need it. Thanx in advance Lena

Zope + Gadfly = Rapid Prototyping?!
by Thomas Weholt 24 May '00

24 May '00

Hi, Now that I`ve a couple of SQL-methods working with Gadfly, I`m wondering if they will work without modification if I install a different SQL-database, like Postgres. Of course, that depends on SQL-syntax used and what part of SQL-standard the other database supports, but for rather simple SQL-stuff it should be ok, right? I hoped to create a prototype of my entire project just using Gadfly, with a very limited amount of data, then install a different database-adapter when it`s time to really shove alot of data into it. The queries might need optimization, but I`ll take those problems when they come. I just want to know if there are pitfalls to watch out for working like this? PS! Thanks for all the answers I got to my question about ZODB and ZCatalog, - it really enlightened me on some key issues in Zope I totally overlooked. Thomas

The problem is cause at the same line "OFS/Image.py:187". However, this time, the date string send by the browser has an invalid format, whereas in the other case, the format was correct, but the value (1900) very strange. Dieter

I've included a copy of the note I sent to the folks reporting problems with SQLMethods that includes the patch you can use to verify that it fixes the problem for TinyTables as well: > Those of you who have had problems with SQL Method results in > the 2.2 alpha (that's probably everyone!) may want to apply > the following patch to lib/python/Shared/DC/ZRDB/Results.py. > If you are tracking CVS, you can just update the file.
