Import restriction?
by mindlace 12 Apr '00

12 Apr '00

Zopistas, I'm curious as to why "Import" is limited to the local file-system. Would I be committing some sort of serious security error if I allowed users to upload their own exported folders, etc, through that interface? thanks, -- ethan mindlace fremen mindlace(a)imeme.net zope -&- imap email -&- mailing list weave your web with the web at http://imeme.net

ZODB Dump program
by Grakka 12 Apr '00

12 Apr '00

Hi all, Can someone has or can post a program to dump the contents of the Data.fs file on screen or to a text file? Do you think is advisable to use the python/zope examples to try to figure it out? The reason is that we would like to maintain the file programatically. Thanks in advance,

COM

Have managed to get by the CoInitialize problem using COM with Zope in an external method. The method has been tested in straight python 1.52 and works great there. Now I need some help. Here is the traceback: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ... Error type: AttributeError Error value: GetModuleForCLSID ...

ZGadflyDa question: No commit? Why?
by Mark D. Lesh 12 Apr '00

12 Apr '00

Does anyone know why ZGadflyDA has no 'commit' within it? I have been using it to try out some of the database features of Zope and have had several problems related to losing data when the Zope instance is restarted or the Gadfly connection is bounced. I have added a commit in a try/except block just after the execution of the sql statement in my adapter installation, but was wondering if it was left out for a reason? Thanks in advance, -- Lesh

Is there a WikiIndex page on Zope.org, with all the various design Wikis listed? It's getting a little tricky to remember them all...

I'm actually agnostic on the "unified" vs. "context" flamewar -- I'll take either in preference to a "plain" diff, and all three in preference to no diff at all. I'm following the Python "party-line" here: http://www.python.org/patches/ I believe that the rationale for preferring context diffs is that they make manual conflict resolution simpler.

zope imap server?
by mindlace 11 Apr '00

11 Apr '00

Zopistas, Paul Everitt mentioned that someone was working on a Zope imap server. I'd very much like to get in touch with whoever's working on that, because it would be ideal for several projects I'm trying to put together. Mostly I'd like to use it as the core of a weblog/maillist software. Thanks, -- ethan mindlace fremen mindlace(a)imeme.net zope -&- imap email -&- mailing list weave your web with the web at http://imeme.net

product creation wierdness in 2.1.6
by Sam Gendler 11 Apr '00

11 Apr '00

I have been plagued by a very strange bug tonight. I am trying to create a base class for a zClass, and I had an typo on a line of the code, which caused an import to fail. No matter how hard I tried, I could not get get Zope to notice that the line had changed, despite many restarts, removals of .pyc files, etc. The exception would still get thrown, and the line of source quoted, always had source that no longer exited in the .py file. Finally, I thought that perhaps I should delete the product altogether, and then restart zope. Now the product does not show up at all. Ever. No matter what I do (including undo of the delete). Finally, I moved the source code out of zope's home directory, and blew zope away, and reinstalled from scratch from source. When I move my code back into lib/python/Products, it still fails to appear in teh product list, even as a broken product. I have looked at the source, and it does not look as though it has been modified, and this is an entirely new Data.fs file, so what could possibly be going on. Any ideas, anyone? This is not my first product (zClass or otherwise) and I have never seen this problem bfore. Zope is version 2.1.6 Please help. --sam

Fwd: Calling os.waitpid() From Secondary Thread Under Linux 2.2.12-20?
by Patrick Phalen 11 Apr '00

11 Apr '00

This just appeared on comp.lang.python. Can any Zope experts comment on whether this Linux threads comment has implications for Zope? ---------- ## Forwarded Message ## ---------- Subject: Calling os.waitpid() From Secondary Thread Under Linux 2.2.12-20? Date: Tue, 11 Apr 2000 17:48:11 GMT From: rwiserREMOVEthis(a)mindspring.com (Randy Wiser) I've written a small python program that spawns one child process from its main thread, and then creates a second thread. The sole purpose of the second thread (at this point) is to call os.waitpid(processID, 0) to wait for the child that the main thread created. This works fine under Solaris when I call os.waitpid() from the second thread. But, under Linux 2.2.12-20 I get the following OSError exception: [Errno 10] No child processes However, if (under Linux still) I call waitpid() from the main thread (as a test), the call does indeed wait until the child process terminates. After scouring some of the Linux newsgroups, I've gathered that threads spawned under Linux may have SIGCHLD signals (and other signals) blocked, and that this _may_ be the reason I get the error, even though the processID I pass is for a valid process. Unfortunately there seems to be no easy way to set the signal mask for the second thread. Has anyone else run into this situation, and if so can you advise how you solved it? -------------------------------------------------------
