Try setting the service to run under a privileged account. That said, however, I run ZServer as a service using my srvany "hack" myself and I can see and connect to any system DSN on my server. Try downloading MDAC (Microsoft Data Access Components) 2.1 from www.microsoft.com. It will upgrade your ODBC DLLs and drivers if they're slightly old. Actually go grab it here: http://ftpsearch.lycos.com/cgi-bin/search?query=mdac_typ.exe. The correct file is 5.9 or 6.0 MB. If you have SP4 on CD, it should be under \full\mdac\i386. -- Alexander Staubo http://www.mop.no/~alex/ "It has taken the planet Earth 4.5 billion years to discover it is 4.5 billion years old." --George Wald >-----Original Message----- >From: zope-admin(a)zope.org [mailto:zope-admin@zope.org]On Behalf Of >Graham Chiu >Sent: 30. mai 1999 20:55 >To: zope(a)zope.org >Subject: [Zope] ODBC and Zserver problems > > > >When I start up Zserver using a batch file, or manually, I am able to >make my ODBC connections, and see my ODBC datasources. > >However, if I start up Zserver as a NT service (zserver-srvany.zip), >although Zope works fine in other apparent respects, it is now >unable to >see or access ODBC datasources. > >Using 1.11.0pr 1 > >------- >Regards, Graham Chiu >gchiu<at>compkarori.co.nz > >_______________________________________________ >Zope maillist - Zope(a)zope.org >http://www.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope > >(For developer-specific issues, use the companion list, >zope-dev(a)zope.org - http://www.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ) >

maybe you could do:  this would create a new list with the first item being 1 and the rest being, well, the rest and replace the old list. Pretty ugly, though... BTW, I had a similar problem about 10 minutes ago with dictionaries. A solution I found:  HTH, John Jarvis > -----Original Message----- > From: T. C.

ZClasses: can't display properties
by Alex.Thomas＠dresdnerkb.com 31 May '99

31 May '99

Next slight hitch with the alpha release... trying to view a new ZClass instance (first view set to property sheet display as in tutorial) http://mysite/zclass_instance/propertysheets/zclass_instance_info/manage <http://mysite/zclass_instance/propertysheets/zclass_instance_info/manage> gives  This may be the same as "Zope Bug: ZClasses: clicking on 'propertysheet' gives error." but can't really tell from the one-liner. Anyway, looks like a great facility taking shape there, exactly the sort of thing I was looking for (is there some link between properties and XML elements brewing? Can't wait!) cheers Alex ---- EOF ########################################## This email, its content and any files transmitted with it are intended solely for the addressee(s) and may be legally privileged and/or confidential.

Re: [Zope] Object creation time

I haven't been able to find any method or property that tells you this. The only way you can ever hope to find out is by overriding the creation process, and adding the creation date with your own code. If you add objects through your own web interface, it should be quite simple really, but if you allow objects to be created through the default web interface, it wil be a lot harder to do, and also will require modifying the Zope source code. -- Martijn Pieters, Web Developer | Antraciet http://www.antraciet.nl | Tel: +31-35-6254545 Fax: +31-35-6254555 | mailto:mj@antraciet.nl http://www.antraciet.nl/~mj | PGP: http://wwwkeys.nl.pgp.net:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xA8A32149 ------------------------------------------

replace values in a list or dictionary
by T. C. Huang 31 May '99

31 May '99

Hi, How can I replace the value in a list defined in REQUEST? For example, in a DTML Document:  How can I replace the value 'a' in list L with 1 so that L become [1,2,3,4,5]? In Python, it's easy. L[0]=1. How can one do the same thing in Zope DTML Document? T.C. Huang

RE: [Zope] Zero length files after FTP put to ZServer

OK, thanks for that. Following a suggestion from Rhys Jones I've copied the 1.5.1 version of cgi.py to the ZPublisher directory and that's fixed it for now. cheers Alex -----Original Message----- From: Martijn Pieters [mailto:mj@antraciet.nl] Sent: 29 May 1999 13:26 To: zope(a)zope.org Cc: Alex.Thomas(a)dresdnerkb.com; Michel(a)digicool.com Subject: Re: [Zope] Zero length files after FTP put to ZServer >> (Zope 2.0a with ZServer) >> >> Odd... can't seemt to transfer the body of a document to ZServer using FTP - >> the file appears but is either zero length or, if new, contains the default >> DTML script.

If you use python 1.5.1 with 1.11.0pr1 like DC tells you too, and 1.5.2 with 2.0.0a1, you'll indeed notice a difference.
