No, it's not Windows something: I run Zope on a Dec Alpha Miata + Linux Red-Hat 5.1 + python 1.51. I use a PostgreSQL DB and every SQL date parsing works great. I have discovered this timezone pb. with the calendar tag. If someone has successfully patched the DateTime module (or something else) on this platform, please mail me. I have also a red-hat 5.2 alpha box. So I guess I will have to try it. Thanks for the article reference. Gilles

Confera - Message order
by Scherer, Bill 14 Apr '99

14 Apr '99

I'm swamped with other work and figured somebody must have done this already. How can I reverse the order of the message display in Confera's index_html? By default, the oldest message is on top, the newest at the bottom. I would like new messages to appear at the top. I imagine I can pass a parameter to the tree sort method, but what? Also, I image that this sorting would have to be at the top level only. Thanks Bill

Actually, it so happens one of the primary mailman implementers is here at digicool. I've played a tiny bit with substituting some zope-based dtml for mailman's homegrown web interface it's a tantalyzing temptation to just go ahead and do the whole thing. That, however, wouldn't add a whole lot of value (it would just simplify the interface code, at the expense of a whole nother system on which mailman depends), and we'd like to think through what we'd really want to accomplish with such an effort. We're working on the foundation for a notion of membership in our linux expo project, and there's one thing that would be a compelling case for superficial integration. Then there's the persistent object store and other facilities for doing a nice persistent server, which would make my mouth water if i were a particularly obsessive compulsive personality. (No, my mouth is not actually watering.) Plus, having a two-way interface with email in zope is a really interesting prospect, adding value to zope as well as to systems that use it. There are some really interesting opportunities here - email systems like, but less monolithic than, conventional mailling lists, where for instance email-based "discussions" can be embedded in documents, and spawn off new resources as threads spin off. Or whatever - more thinking needs be done. So there's a lot of nice stuff to do here. When we'll pinpoint what, that would have priority, is a question. There's *lotsa* nice stuff to do with zope... > > c)workflow > > 27 ton weight. But not impossible, but I'm not sure it belongs IN Zope, > honestly. I would not dismiss this too quickly. We went into the dreamworld for a day or two, thinking about what could be if we had a versatile workflow engine in zope, and i think a lot of mouths were watering. Imagine if you had a bunch of interfaces and could express your activity logic for expressing the flow between them in a high-level, comprehensible way. That might be a reeeal convenient way to build applicable portions of a web site. This is probably something we'll return to after linux expo. Ken Manheimer klm(a)digicool.com

Re: ZopeHTTP speed problem.

[This is a crossposting from c.l.p to the zope(a)zope.org mailing list, since it contains a problem report and a proposal/question concerning both] On Mon, 12 Apr 1999 22:57:32 GMT, befletch(a)my-dejanews.com wrote: [...] > I found I have to use >my machine's numeric IP address, not 'localhost' as the docs indicate. Do you get the long response times even *with* using your localhost's IP address? I once had a similar problem with response times even up to a minute for each HTTP request, and I found out that it was due to the logging mechanism in the standard library's BaseHTTPServer.py: BaseHTTPRequestHandler.log_message calls the address_string function, which does a reverse name lookup of the request's IP address. If neither yout DNS nor the etc/hosts table (it lives in \WINNT\system32\drivers\etc\hosts on a NT machine, don't know about 95/98) are configured correctly, timeouts occur on each request. There are two calls to address_string in Zope, one in BaseHTTPRequestHandler.log_message and one in ZopeHTTPServer.BoboRequestHandler.get_environment Both can be changed to self.client_address[0], so that only IP addresses are used for logging and the REMOTE_HOST environment variable is never set. What I would appreciate is to make this behaviour configurable, but it would require changes to both BaseHTTPRequestHandler and BoboRequestHandler. Any ideas? Stefan

RE: [Zope] Zope with Apache on NT
by TFE MMS JARVIS JOHN 14 Apr '99

14 Apr '99

I don' t know if this will help much but I have version 1.3.4 working. The Zope install is named George so, RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*) RewriteRule ^/Zope/(.*) /Apache/cgi-bin/George.exe/$1 [E=HTTP_CGI_AUTHORIZATION:%1,T=application/x-httpd-cgi,L] This doesn't seem much different from yours but I also had to append: <Directory /Zope> Options All AllowOverride None </Directory> <Directory /apache/cgi-bin/george.exe> Options All AllowOverride None </Directory> before I could get it to work. Only adding ExecCGI option still gave me 403 and authorization errors. Options All seems a bit extreme, but I didn't feel like messing with it a whole lot at the time... BTW this is on NTWS 4.0.

Which, for me, started with getting my own Python.h so I could compile. This entailed getting my own Python, so I concluded I was supposed to untar ZOracleDA into my Python directory, not Zope's private Python directory... > Even in > its current state you should be able to visit the Control > Panel/Products > folder and see a broken ZOracleDA product. Not if you think it goes in your Python directory, as opposed to Zope's Python directory. I'll move it and see what shakes loose. You might want to amend the installations to say to start by untarring in the Zope directory, not the Python directory... > Check the README.txt for > step-by-step compilation instructions.

I am trying to update my database using url traversal. I'm pretty sure I need to give proxy permission in order to do update the database however there seems no way to do this. eg I am using a url like this http://provision.auslabs.lucent.com/cgi-bin/provision.exe/Download/qryComple teReg/MagicNumber/60330800/completeReg where qryCompleteReg is UPDATE users SET roles = 'Customer' WHERE username = ( SELECT unregUsers.username FROM unregUsers WHERE MagicNumber =  )  SELECT users.username, fullName, email FROM users, unregUsers WHERE MagicNumber =  AND unregUsers.username = users.username  DELETE FROM unregUsers WHERE MagicNumber =  Testing this sql_mehtod using the manage interface works perfectly but when I use it from the url above it seems to work however doesn't actually do the UPDATE or DELETE (The SELECT works however). Is there something I'm missing or is there a bug.
