Zope 2.7beta1
by Myroslav Opyr 10 Nov '03

10 Nov '03

Hi, We've encountered micellaneous problems running Zope 2.7.0beta1 with Plone 1.0.5. It was "Missing docstring" error somewhere in CMFForum and "security assertions" when accessing MemberData.getProperty. Dunno if the issue is known but I was intending to get it out before bets3 is considered. Sorrry if it was fixed in beta2, sorry for not cunsulting collector and not making use of it. It is just quicknote of problems with 2.7 Regards, m. -- Myroslav Opyr zope.net.ua <http://zope.net.ua/> ° Ukrainian Zope Hosting e-mail: myroslav(a)zope.net.ua <mailto:myroslav@zope.net.ua>

KeywordIndex performance / multiunion
by Seb Bacon 07 Nov '03

07 Nov '03

A simple query for ["A" or "B" or "C"] against a KeywordIndex containing 27k objects is taking about 7 seconds on a Celeron 1.6Ghz, which seems an absurdly long time to me. The bit of the operation that is taking the time is the part of the index which does a union of the results of each of the 3 query parameters. Reproducing this BTree union operation outside Zope in a unit test takes milliseconds. Very occasionally it takes milliseconds inside the KeywordIndex too. Something to do with memory usage perhaps? I'll continue looking into it. But main the reason I'm posting is to wonder if there any reason not to use the multiunion operator instead of the union operator in UnIndex.py... it should be faster, right? It seems a touch faster in some informal tests. Seb

CMF: _getViewFor() problem
by Mark Wilson 07 Nov '03

07 Nov '03

Hi folks I'm attempting to use Plone with CMF 1.4.2 and Zope 2.7b2. I'm getting errors in PloneFolder.__call__() where I first substituted the call to the local (PloneFolder) _getViewFor() with that of the one in CMFCore.utils (since in its original state, the local _getViewFor() failed because it thought action was a dict). This fails because CMFCore.utils._getViewFor() returns the original PloneFolder object - which gets __call__()ed again until we run out of stack. I also see this behaviour with my own custom folder class. I then tried fixing the PloneFolder._getViewFor() so it treated action as an object. This function now fails in the call to restrictedTraverse(action.action) where the incoming path is expected to be a list or string, not an action object. Being something of a newcomer to CMF, Plone et al, I have to say I'm a bit stuck at the moment. Do I have to roll back to earlier versions of CMF/Plone/Zope, or is there a quick fix? What would be _really_ handy is if some knowledgeable individual could offer a brief explanation of the purpose of _getViewFor(). I'm kind of enjoying poking around in all this code, but its taking way longer than I budgeted. Any info gratefully received. Thanks Mark

dir()
by Dmitrij Repp 06 Nov '03

06 Nov '03

I started to program for Zope and have found out, that some commands in Python have been excluded. I miss command dir(). Whether there is any opportunity to replace it? Or how I can find out methods/properties of object? __________________________________________________________________ Gesendet von Yahoo!

CookieCrumbler and WebDAV
by Lennart Regebro 06 Nov '03

06 Nov '03

CookieCrumbler doesn't seem to allow cookie authenticifation over WebDAV. It stops authentication if the request is not PUT, GET or POST and also it stops anything over the webdav source port. Anybody knows WHY? I took this code for my Cookie Identification plugin for PLuggableUserFolder, so it does the same, but we now have a client whos WebDAV client seems to try to use cookies, adn that fails of course.

debugging memory leaks
by Seb Bacon 06 Nov '03

06 Nov '03

I've got a fairly major memory leak in my application. I've followed the thread from August including Shane's suggestions about using a debug build of Python to inspect object references and the rest [1] I know from the refcounts in Zope that items of class Foo are definitely leaking, yet when I do a sys.getobjects(0, Foo) I get nothing back. Navigating all 100000-ish references one by one seems a bit daunting. So I'm not sure where to go from here. Shane, you mentioned you had put together some useful functions for exploring this debug information - could you share them? Or were you just refering to the remote console you supplied earlier? Also, what kinds of Python code can cause memory leaks? I'm not really sure what I should be looking for. The only thing I can think of is hanging file descriptors, as circular references should be picked up by the gc anyway. Seb [1] http://mail.zope.org/pipermail/zope-dev/2003-August/020358.html
