Just some quick programming notes: 1) First, the original announcement for testing the site was for a very limited audience. Please, please, please...don't forward the URL to others. 2) Second, if you notice a hole that allows people to do malicious things, please notifiy us first. I've turned the site off for a while. We'll announce its availability, perhaps on a different port, later today.

Help!...Oracle for persistence?
by Jim Salmons 13 Aug '99

13 Aug '99

Brad, Welcome to the Open Source ZOPE community. The solution to your problem is simple... Q: Does Tera.com have money to spend? A1: If YES, contact Digital Creations for direct support and collaboration. You can spend a tidy pile of money for access to DC folks and still not spend what you would for a license-only to ZOPE technology if it were offered under a proprietary product strategy. To my mind, ZOPE beats products costing many tens of thousands of dollars. So spending some bucks on training and support is chump change compared to what you get in return. A2: If NO (like most of us), participate in the community. The mailing list is maddening active, but the best way to get quick, specific answers. Stephan Richter's informative response is proof that the list works... although we are drowning in our own success as even the digests get art coming fast and furious as list activity increases... but relief is on the way... The ZOPE.ORG site is getting ready for a cut-over to a ZOPE2 and Portal Toolkit implementation that will dramatically improve community members ability to collaborate. Did you get the pre-announcement invite to take a look? You can see it here: http://www.zope.org:8200. Incidentally, our interest in ZOPE is for the construction and use of frameworks to support role-based executable business and community models. You can find our more about this in our "ZOPE, Mirror Worlds and Executable Models" forums here: http://sohodojo.com/scripts/Ultimate.cgi.

ANN: GuestCounter 1.0
by Alexander Staubo 13 Aug '99

13 Aug '99

Guest Counter is a very simple product whose class instances can count the number of "guests" to a web site. It counts users using any kind of ID you want, although it makes most sense to use a user's IP address. Since HTTP is a stateless protocol, visitors cannot be precisely tracked, and so the counter continually times out registered IDs in order to approximate the current bulk of visitors. A simple mechanism for piecing together "graphical" counters using GIFs or whatever you want is also provided. Installation instructions: Unzip/tar in Zope root folder, then restart Zope. The new meta type "Guest Counter" should be now available for adding to folders. http://www.mop.no/~alex/download/guestcounter-1.0.tar.gz -- Alexander Staubo http://www.mop.no/~alex/ "`This must be Thursday,' said Arthur to himself, sinking low over his beer, `I never could get the hang of Thursdays.'" --Douglas Adams, _The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy_

MySQL Python module
by Tim Wilson 13 Aug '99

13 Aug '99

Greetings all: I'm trying to install the ZMySQLDA. Before that, however, I need to recompile Python with the MySQL module. The problem is that I'm not sure which version of the MySQL module I should use and where I can find it. Actually, I've got MySQLdb-0.0.3, but I don't know if that will be compatible with ZMySQLDA. -Tim -- Timothy Wilson | "The faster you | Check out: Henry Sibley H.S. | go, the shorter | http://slashdot.org/ W.

Cannot use rename and other buttons on root folder
by Jim Cain 13 Aug '99

13 Aug '99

When I check one of the items in the root folder and click any of the rename, copy etc buttons at the bottom, it shows me a view of the root folder in the frame. In any other folders other than the root folder, the buttons work fine. What's going on? Thanks, Jim

HELP? Copy and Paste in Python
by Kevin Dangoor 13 Aug '99

13 Aug '99

Hi, Having had no luck in copying and pasting my objects in DTML, I decided to try an External Method. I wrote a function that takes two arguments: from object and to object. It is supposed to copy all of the objects in the from object (a Folder in this case) into the to object (a ZClass instance that inherits from CatalogAware and ObjectManager). Here is the code: def candp(fobj, tobj): "Copy and paste" ids = fobj.objectIds() if not ids: return cdata = fobj.manage_copyObjects(ids) tobj.manage_pasteObjects(cdata) I get an error that the object that is referred to is not found. Here is the last part of the traceback I get: File C:\Program Files\Byproducts\lib\python\DocumentTemplate\DT_Util.py, line 315, in eval (Object: candp(fobj, this())) File <string>, line 0, in ? File C:\Program Files\Byproducts\lib\python\Products\ExternalMethod\ExternalMethod.py, line 246, in __call__ (Object: candp) (Info: ((<Folder instance at 00B4F2D0>, <KMArticle instance at 01650710>), {}, None)) File C:\Program Files\Byproducts\Extensions\art.py, line 28, in candp (Object: ElementWithAttributes) File C:\Program Files\Byproducts\lib\python\OFS\CopySupport.py, line 198, in manage_pasteObjects (Object: CatalogAware) Copy Error: (see above) As you can see, the DTML is calling the candp External Method with "fobj", with is a Folder and this() which is a KMArticle instance. Any hints? Thanks, Kevin

Problem with in and SQL query
by Paolo Bizzarri 13 Aug '99

13 Aug '99

Hi zopers, I have the following problem. I have to create a report that contains certain stats for some machines for each month of the year. I have the query that do returns the values for all non-zero stat. Now I would like to make zope to fill all the values of the matrix months x machines. Basically, I have to run through the results of a SQL method without an in. The in will be performed on the month number and machine number, and I will print the value in the query result if it corresponds to month and machine number (and advance some cursor on the query), otherwise I will print zero. I am searching a pure Zope solution (no DB manipulation).

RE: [Zope] Public CVS checkout hasn't updated files in several da ys

Jim, the changes are being propagated - but not to the old 'Zope' CVS module, which has been frozen with the release of Zope2. All checkins (since july 22) have been going to a new module, named of course 'Zope2'. From what i can tell, the Zope2 public repository is up to date, so i suspect that you're still tracking the old Zope module. Let me know if i'm that's not the case, and i'll see what i can glean. Below is my announcement about the change - i tried to hit everywhere i could, but it can't hurt to repeat it... Ken Manheimer klm(a)digicool.com Date: Thu, 22 Jul 1999 14:02:07 -0400 (EDT) To: zope-checkins(a)zope.org, digicool-cvs(a)zope.org, zope-announce(a)zope.org, zope-dev(a)zope.org Subject: CVS checkin notifications reinstated We've reinstated updates to the public CVS repository (before the Zope2 release - looks like that may be a day or two) - *with an important change*: Ongoing development is being applied to a new directory, Zope2. The old Zope module, on which the prior public checkouts were based, will *not* be revised, so: - If you want to get the new version you'll have to do a new checkout of the Zope2 module. This actually simplifies a bunch of things from our internal perspective, and a few things from the external perspective, and has the benefit of providing a checkpoint of the last Zope1 release. But it is a change, and we want to be sure that you track it. Questions? Comments? Lemme know. Ken Manheimer klm(a)digicool.com

Hmm, having just supplied that FTP hint, I find that it doesn't seem to work on my 2b4 install, at least listing the root folder doesn't, everything else does. Anyone else afflicted? ftp> ls "-al /." /tmp/efsaFA4eD 200 PORT command successful. 550 Could not list directory. ftp> cheers alex ########################################## 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.
