RE: [Zope] Copying and pasting Z Class instances

I'm talking about instances of ZClasses -- not the ZClasses objects themselves. Here's a cut/paste traceback: Traceback (innermost last): File C:\zope\intra\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 209, in publish_module File C:\zope\intra\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 179, in publish File C:\zope\intra\lib\python\Zope\__init__.py, line 199, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: ApplicationDefaultPermissions) File C:\zope\intra\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 165, in publish File C:\zope\intra\lib\python\ZPublisher\mapply.py, line 154, in mapply (Object: manage_pasteObjects) File C:\zope\intra\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 102, in call_object (Object: manage_pasteObjects) File C:\zope\intra\lib\python\OFS\CopySupport.py, line 199, in manage_pasteObjects (Object: ElementWithAttributes) File C:\zope\intra\lib\python\OFS\CopySupport.py, line 381, in _verifyObjectPaste (Object: ElementWithAttributes) Copy Error: (see above) -- Alexander Staubo http://www.mop.no/~alex/ "His latest [comic-book hero] was the very exemplar of political correctitude, being a small black boy, who, in the company of his lovable pet pooch, righted social wrongs and put bad boys to flight.

Bear in mind ZServer will try to change it's UID. Simple (and horribly insecure) fix is 'chmod 666 var/Z2.pid'. A better solution is to make var/ and contents be owned by the user that's ZServer is trying to run as. (DC folks: maybe a try/except around this with a nicer error message?) Anthony

Re: [Zope] acl_users
by Anthony Baxter 12 Aug '99

12 Aug '99

Couple of solutions - one is to use UserDb, and make it use cookies rather than basic auth. You can then load 'acl_users/docLogout' to log out. Another that I use for testing is to use ssh's port forwarding to fool the browser into thinking I am connecting to a different server. For example, if I have zope running on host kahlua, port 8080, I run ssh with 'ssh -L8081:kahlua:8080 -L8082:kahlua:8080 -L8083:kahlua:8080' I can then connect to localhost:8081, localhost:8082, or localhost:8083, and the connection will be forwarded to the zope server. Because it's a different host:port, the browser won't re-use the auth info, but will prompt again for each host:port. Very useful trick :) Anthony >>> Anthony Pfrunder wrote > On Thu, 12 Aug 1999, Paul Chung Chee Soong wrote: > > Another one, how can we logout from the current session(if there's one in > > Zope) and relogin again as another user?

Batch Processing
by Stephan Richter 12 Aug '99

12 Aug '99

Hey guys, I just copied the example from the DMTL to try batch processing by providing a list of all members in my database. I use a query to generate teh sequence, and do not simply use words like in the example. Are queries not supported? It just ignores the dtml-in tags that contain 'next' and 'previous' and just displays the entire list. It also ignores the 'size' and the 'start' attribute. stephan -- Stephan Richter iXL - Software Designer and Engineer

This release fixes quite a few bugs. http://www.zope.org/Download/Releases/Zope-2.0.0b4 * Martijn Pieters posted a good tip on how to perform access control based on user domains. http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-August/007769.html * People love to discuss DTML syntax. Most people like the new syntax, though some folks would like to see minor changes. It was revealed that the syntax will probably not change, but that there may be another fully xml-compliant syntax in the future. http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-August/007812.html http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-August/007931.html * Jonathan Corbet mentioned that a new Linux-oriented Zope-powered site has appeared. http://www.openclassroom.org http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-August/007817.html * Amos Latteier explained how to manually control the Zope ORB's object traversal process. http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-August/007825.html * Steve Spicklemire announced a beta 2 release of his Zieve Zope product. http://www.zope.org/Download/Contrib/Zieve.tgz http://www.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-August/007876.html * Kevin Dangoor announced KM|net News Product.
