Is it possible to split a Zope database into multiple files, while retaining conceptual unity? I don't like the thought that I am bound by a 2 gig restriction on my web site. Howard C. Shaw III Programmer/SysAdmin St. Thomas High School

You can either use the REMOTE_ADDR variable in Zope or config the web server to precude some set of IP addresses from accessing, for example, http://server.com/Zope/* --Rob

ZServer b1 and Dreamweaver
by Martin Dougiamas 19 Apr '99

19 Apr '99

ZServer's up and the FTP interface is working using Linux ftp, ncftp or Netscape Communicator with ftp:// But Dreamweaver 2.0 (Mac) won't work. Anyone else had success? Here's my log for standard Unix ftp, after logging in and doing an "ls". rap83:28794 adding channel <zope_ftp_channel 134.7.112.211:28794 at 3fe838> rap83:28794 ==> 220 moodle.com FTP server (Medusa Async V1.2 [experimental]) ready. rap83:28794 <== USER Zope rap83:28794 ==> 331 Password required. rap83:28794 <== PASS <password> rap83:28794 ==> 230 Login successful. rap83:28794 Successful login. rap83:28794 <== SYST rap83:28794 ==> 215 UNIX Type: L8 rap83:28794 <== PORT 134,7,112,211,112,123 rap83:28794 ==> 200 PORT command successful. rap83:28794 <== LIST rap83:28794 ==> 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for file list rap83:28794 ==> 226 Transfer complete rap83:28794 <== QUIT rap83:28794 ==> 221 Goodbye. rap83:28794 closing channel 13:<zope_ftp_channel connected 134.7.112.211:28794 at 3fe838> And here's the Dreamweaver log: rap83:61175 adding channel <zope_ftp_channel 134.7.112.211:61175 at 3fe700> rap83:61175 ==> 220 moodle.com FTP server (Medusa Async V1.2 [experimental]) ready. rap83:61175 <== USER Zope rap83:61175 ==> 331 Password required. rap83:61175 <== PASS <password> rap83:61175 ==> 230 Login successful. rap83:61175 Successful login. rap83:61175 <== TYPE I rap83:61175 ==> 200 Type set to Binary. rap83:61175 <== SYST rap83:61175 ==> 215 UNIX Type: L8 rap83:61175 <== PWD rap83:61175 ==> 257 "/" is the current directory. rap83:61175 <== NOOP rap83:61175 ==> 200 NOOP command successful. rap83:61175 <== PORT 192,168,19,2,8,91 rap83:61175 ==> 200 PORT command successful. rap83:61175 <== TYPE A rap83:61175 ==> 200 Type set to ASCII. rap83:61175 <== LIST rap83:61175 ==> 150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for file list ...and it hangs there.

Tree tag questions
by Johan Carlsson 18 Apr '99

18 Apr '99

Hi, I'm trying to figure out how to customize the tree tag a bit. Here's my problem: 1. I would like to automatically expand a branch when I select the specific folder. + folder1 + folder2 *click on the "folder1" (not the "+") + folder1 + folder3 + folder2 As I see it, it would be possible by appending "?tree-e=<some code>#<row???>" How can I get the <some code> and the <row???> values from the tree tag? 2. To make the tree tag remember the current expanded state on different levels. Today the tree tag expansion vary between different sub-element. I suppose <some code> and <row???> could be used to accomplish this as well? 3. The next thing is to turn of then "+".

You probably already have a sample info file in your Zope directory. Look for a file named Zope.cgi. If not here's an example: #!/usr/local/Zope/pcgi/bin/pcgi-wrapper PCGI_NAME=Main PCGI_MODULE_PATH=/usr/local/Zope/lib/python/Main.py PCGI_PUBLISHER=/usr/local/Zope/pcgi/pcgi_publisher.py PCGI_EXE=/usr/local/Zope/bin/python PCGI_SOCKET_FILE=/usr/local/Zope/var/pcgi.soc PCGI_PID_FILE=/usr/local/Zope/var/pcgi.pid PCGI_ERROR_LOG=/usr/local/Zope/var/pcgi.log PCGI_DISPLAY_ERRORS=1 PYTHONHOME=/usr/local/Zope BOBO_REALM=Zope BOBO_DEBUG_MODE=1 Note, this example assumes that you're using a binary Zope installation. For more information on PCGI and what all these funny options mean check out http://starship.python.net/crew/jbauer/persistcgi/ Good luck. -Amos

Users who are allowed to work only within sessions?
by Itai Tavor 18 Apr '99

18 Apr '99

I am building a site in which different people are responsible for editing and adding documents at different folders. The site's client wants to preview all changes before they go live. The editors can't be trusted not to mess things up, so they can't be allowed to work on the actual site. So, what I need is a way to allow certain users to work only inside a session - which seems to be impossible, because the only way to get into a session is to first log in, and then to activate the session. If an editor fails to activate a session, they're free to mess up the site. Can anyone think of a way to achieve this? Or is it already possible and I can't see it? -- Itai Tavor -- "Je sautille, donc je suis." -- itavor(a)vic.bigpond.net.au -- - Kermit the Frog -- -- 'Supposing a tree fell down, Pooh, when we were underneath it?' -- -- 'Supposing it didn't,' said Pooh after careful thought. --

Creating Document with random num as ID?
by Craig Allen 17 Apr '99

17 Apr '99

I need to create DTML Documents with a [pseudo]unique [pseudo]random id. I can create the objects okay using manage_clone, and I have a method that generates my "unique" "random" id, but I can't seem to create either: a) create the object and then rename it using the random number, or b) [more desirable] create the object with the random id. Ideas? Thanks.

Does Zope's Cut, Copy & Paste work stable?
by Stefan Franke 17 Apr '99

17 Apr '99

[This is Zope 1.10.2, don't know about the current CVS. I did a quick scan over the Known Bugs list and found nothing] If I cut'n'paste an object into another folder, the "Paste" button appears again when I change to a different folder, and leads to an error when hit. Same after deletion: Sometimes the "Paste" button appears after deleting an object. A few minutes ago I made a folder disappear, just by clicking cut, paste and the browser's back button wildly. I tried to reproduce this, but I can't. Sorry. I'm running Zope 1.10.2 on a NT machine an browse locally with IE4.01 cookies enabled. I've been using Zope's CopySupport for a while, and it works fine in the regular cases, but it doesn't seem stable when tried to be abused... Can anyone confirm? Stefan
