Who maintains ZPublisher?
by Chris Gray 11 Jun '02

11 Jun '02

Who is _the_ or _a_ maintianer of the code for ZPublisher? I've been rummaging around in the source code, mainly as a learning exercise at this point. I have some questions, possibly some suggestions, and some documentation might come out of it. So I'd like to know the best person to bug ;-) Thanks, Chris Gray Systems Analyst University of Waterloo Library "Maybe I think too much" --Paul Simon

How-to : Defining custom DTML-tags ??
by Thomas Weholt 10 Jun '02

10 Jun '02

I want to create a custom DTML-tag. How/where do I start ? My goal is to create a way to define a form and validate the input ( that integers are valid, required fields filled out etc. ) using Javascript in the browser and and on the server side after posting. Any thoughts ? I was thinking something along the lines of : <dtml-form name="form1"> <dtml-field input="text" name="name" type="string" required=1> <dtml-field input="text" name="email" type="string"> <dtml-field input="select" name="programming_language"> <dtml-selectOption>Python</dtml-selectOption> <dtml-selectOption>Perl</dtml-selectOption> <dtml-selectOption>C</dtml-selectOption> </dtml-field> <dtml-field input="checkbox" name="recieve_spam" checked=1> <dtml-field input="submit" caption="Done"> </dtml-form> Any info on how to define your own custom dtml-tags *in python* would be highly appreciated. Anyhow, if the functionality I'm looking for is somehow allready available I'll consentrate on something else. Best regards, Thomas Weholt

__setattr__ and acquisition ( was RE: __getattr__ and acquisition)
by Nicholas Henke 09 Jun '02

09 Jun '02

Given the following code: I can see why access to self.thing fails in Inner::__setattr__, but the question is how do I do that -- can I not use __setattr__ and have to use a setAttr that is accessed via O.I.setAttr('help','me rhonda') ? Nic import ExtensionClass, Acquisition class Outer(ExtensionClass.Base): thing = ('help','donthelp') class Inner(Acquisition.Implicit): def __setattr__(self,name,value): if name in self.thing: self.__dict__['name'] = value else: print "Bad attribute" O = Outer() I = Inner() O.I = I print O.I.thing # is ok --> gives ('help','donthelp') O.I.help = 'me rhonda' # AttributeError: thing

Zope stops responding (Threads still present)
by Ahsan Imam 09 Jun '02

09 Jun '02

Hello All, Zope stops responding to requests, however when I check the zope process I see seven threads plus watchdog thread. ( ps auxww | grep z2 ). I am not sure why it stops responding. Actions taken to diagnose the problem: 1) I added the -M option and started logging to the debug file. 2) I am using the requestprofiler.py script to see which request in particular causes the problem (hangs). Everytime the request seems to be different. I make the same request and it runs without hanging zope. So I cannot duplicate the problem. I backup the Zodb every night and I have modified the stop script. I first kill the watchdog pid then I do a wget on http://$ZOPE_AUTH@$ZOPE_HOSTNAME:$ZSERVER_PORT/Control_Panel/manage_shutdown. Could this method of stopping zope be the cause? Also there are no core dumps. System Info RedHat 7.2 Zope 2.5.0 Python 2.1.3 Thanks Ahsan Imam

new mime type, Java Web Start
by chpeer2002 08 Jun '02

08 Jun '02

Here is the solution to my questions in postings 91060 and 91067: To get Java Web Start working with Zope, I used the Zope product "ExternalFile". Therefore I could integrate the jnlp-file with the correct mime type that is "application/x-java-jnlp-files". This is not included in the ExternalFile product but it is simple to append it in file mime.types of the product. Further description by Craeg K Strong: Look at http://www.zope.org/Members/arielpartners/ExternalFile/readme So if you installed Zope at c:\zope Then you would look for the file c:\zope\lib\python\Products\ExternalFile\etc\mime.types And add the line application/x-java-jnlp-file jnlp # Java webstart files to it. Then you restart Zope (or just refresh the ExternalFile product) And you're done!

Wrong length for http requests!
by Joachim Werner 07 Jun '02

07 Jun '02

Hi! I am getting the following results from an ab (Apache benchmark) run against a Zope site: Concurrency Level: 20 Time taken for tests: 11.862 seconds Complete requests: 40 Failed requests: 23 (Connect: 0, Length: 23, Exceptions: 0) Total transferred: 1517831 bytes HTML transferred: 1504991 bytes Requests per second: 3.37 Transfer rate: 127.96 kb/s received Connnection Times (ms) min avg max Connect: 0 2 8 Processing: 326 4525 5953 Total: 326 4527 5961 The failed requests are due to a length error. When I look at the detailed log, I see differing lengths for requests to exactly the same page: B 161954188 2002-06-07T20:55:01 GET /instances/KU/index_html I 161954188 2002-06-07T20:55:01 0 A 162098188 2002-06-07T20:55:01 200 37947 E 162098188 2002-06-07T20:55:01 B 159004660 2002-06-07T20:55:01 GET /instances/KU/index_html I 159004660 2002-06-07T20:55:01 0 A 159706548 2002-06-07T20:55:01 200 37963 E 159706548 2002-06-07T20:55:01 B 158147100 2002-06-07T20:55:01 GET /instances/KU/index_html I 158147100 2002-06-07T20:55:01 0 A 159649356 2002-06-07T20:55:02 200 37923 E 159649356 2002-06-07T20:55:02 Does anybody know where that might come from? I will get into more detail on how the page is generated if you need to know. But I'd need a first hint where to look at first because there is lot of code involved ... Cheers Joachim

Project manager ala Sourceforge in Zope ??
by Thomas Weholt 07 Jun '02

07 Jun '02

Hi, I need something similar to Sourceforge ( project manager with docs, simple bug-reporting/issue-tracking, release-manager etc. ), implemented as a product in Zope. The zope.org-homepage has something similar. Is the code available? Does anybody know of any product like this? I'm just getting started with Zope but has several years background in Python. What would be the best way to develop a product like this from scratch ?? Any comments, ideas or people who want to participate in a project like this, please contact me. Best regards, Thomas Weholt
