Zope on Cobalt RaQ servers
by Jimmie Houchin 17 May '99

17 May '99

Hello, I have been in correspondence with my dialup ISP about co-locating with him so that I could find out my costs to eventually deploy my website. He gave me a list of options one of which was the Cobalt RaQ. What are Zope users experiences running Zope on these devices? As much as is possible and when it is possible I would like my setup to be Z all the way. Zope, ZODB, ZServer, etc. For what I want these devices look like they would be plenty sufficient. What would be the optimum amount of RAM for a Zope server like this? A single website using Linux, Zope, ZServer and possibly MailMan. Would 32mb be sufficient or would 64mb be necessary? Jimmie Houchin

top level acl_users and AUTHENTICATED_USER
by reedstrm＠wallace.ece.rice.edu 17 May '99

17 May '99

Hi all - I've got a couple problems (so, what's new? ;-) First, how do I test against the value of the AUTHENTICATED_USER? I'm creating files and folders through a DTML interface, and taging them with a property set to the result of REQUEST.get('AUTHENTICATED_USER') as a 'string' (see my previous emails about REQUEST['AUTHENTICATED_USER'] not working directly) Now, I want to retrieve that property, and test it againt the current AUTHENTICATED_USER, so if they are the same, I offer rename and delete functions. The following DOESN'T work, although the string representation of both addedby and REQUEST.get('AUTHENTICATED_USER') look the same when rendered farther down:  <tr> <TD ALIGN="LEFT" VALIGN="TOP" WIDTH="16">  <INPUT TYPE="CHECKBOX" NAME="ids:list" VALUE="">  </TD> <TD ALIGN="LEFT" VALIGN="TOP"> <A HREF=""> <IMG SRC="/NSBRI/misc_/OFSP/File_icon.gif" ALT="[File]" BORDER="0"></A> </TD> <td class="smallclean"><a href=""></a></td> <td class="smallclean"> bytes</td> <td class="smallclean"></td> <td align="center" class="smallclean"> </td> </tr>  Second problem: I deleted the top level acl_users folder, replaced it with UserDb, then moved my UserDb into a sub folder, so I recreated a 'standard' User Folder at the root, but now I can't authenticate against an users I create in there. Is there a bug with adding a User Folder at the top level? this is all with 1.11.0pr1 on Win32 Thanks, Ross -- Ross J.

RE: [Zope] Zope under Linux -- duh?

And with 1.5.1 I still get the thread module error: tradecenter:/usr/local/zope# Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/local/zope/ZServer/start.py", line 94, in ? from HTTPServer import zhttp_server, zhttp_handler File "/usr/local/zope/ZServer/HTTPServer.py", line 111, in ? tradecenter:/usr/local/zope# import thread ImportError: No module named thread Possibly because my Linux installation doesn't have a thread.h. I don't know Linux well enough to say if this is correct. Afaik, the machine is running glibc 1.x (libc5), not 2.x, and the Python installation info speaks of thread support in glibc 2.x. I don't know.

Deleting an Object through a link
by Alexander Schad 17 May '99

17 May '99

Hi! I want to provide a link in a html-page that deletes a certain Object. My idea was something like: <a href="Houses/manage_delObjects([])">delete House</a> but the syntax doesn´t seem to be correct. Any ideas? Bye Alex
