Excellent, that worked grandly. Is the Sybase DA suitable for production use, do you think? Regards, -scott anderson > > Ok, this indicates that the ctsybase.so module is not linked correctly. > > You'll need to edit the list of libraries in the Setup file, and rebuild > the .so

It gives you an option in the installer - just select "run as a service" and it will create a service with the same name as the site name you provide.

ZSybaseDA usage on Redhat Linux 5.2 with ASE 11.0.3.3?
by Scott Anderson 02 Sep '99

02 Sep '99

Hi all, I just installed Zope and I'd like to start playing, but I'm having problems with the Sybase support. I've compiled and installed ZSybaseDA. I'm using Zope 2.0.0 on RH Linux 5.2 with kernel 2.2.9. I have Sybase ASE 11.0.3.3 installed and operational on the same machine. When loading the DA, Zope reports that ZSybaseDA is a broken product: ZSybaseDA Import Traceback Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/local/zope/Zope2.0.0/lib/python/OFS/Application.py", line 393, in import_products product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly) File "/usr/local/zope/Zope2.0.0/lib/python/Products/ZSybaseDA/__init__.py", line 100, in ? import sys, os, Globals, DA File "/usr/local/zope/Zope2.0.0/lib/python/Products/ZSybaseDA/DA.py", line 102, in ? from db import DB File "/usr/local/zope/Zope2.0.0/lib/python/Products/ZSybaseDA/db.py", line 103, in ? import ctsybase, regex, sys ImportError: /opt/sybase/lib/libct.so: undefined symbol: net_address_get $SYBASE is set, isql works, etc. I have no experience with Python as of yet, so perhaps I'm asking the wrong people... I was hoping that someone has set this up under the same configuration already, however. Thanks for any help, -scott anderson

Re: patch for squishdot--how about Confera?
by Jim Harrison 02 Sep '99

>You need to apply this patch to Squishdot.py to get it to work with Zope >2.0. > >Good Luck! > >Nick Garcia | ngarcia(a)codeit.com >CodeIt Computing | http://codeit.com Confera suffers from the same re/regex problem that affects Squishdot--and Squishdot is based on Confera. Your patch looks pretty generic, except for a few items specific to Squishdot such as summaries. I wonder whether it would be straightforward to construct a patch that targeted both Confera and Squishdot? It would be a useful thing to have.

I just got zope 2.0 and am installing it now. i downloaded the documentation from www.zope.org (DTML & content management) around the time of 2.0.0b5. Does this documentation include 2.0 stuff or should I wait for newer docs/download from the beta site? thx, ~mindlace

I have exactly the same problems :( FRC >>> Grant Street <gstreet(a)sanderson.net.au> 02/09/99 09:09:54 >>> Hello I'm a newbie on 2.0 I have tried to run Confera on the new 2.0.0 zope release and cannot get the search "Search on" only. I get no matches found no matter what. The other problem is if I try to reply to a message I get the following on an error page on submitting the form. Is this because of the incompatibility between 1.10 and 2? If so How can I get/create a fix? I had it working fine on 1.10.

doing a safe-eval of an entered string.
by Anthony Baxter 02 Sep '99

02 Sep '99

What's the easiest way to take a string property of an object, and eval() it safely, in the namespace of the object? Is it sufficient to take the class DocumentTemplate.VSEval.Eval, and use it? It _seems_ safe enough... Anthony

tags for tree tags?
by Ethan Fremen 02 Sep '99

02 Sep '99

I noticed that tree attains it's look through the use of tables. I'm attempting to avoid the use of tables except for tabular data, for a number of reasons, not the least of which that I want to appeal to a blind audience. Also, I want to do trees 'backwards': Item1 - Subitem1 + Subitem2 - subSubitem1 + etcetera. What do I need to do to control the formatting of the tables? I'd like to do it purely through css margin-right calls. Thanks, ~mindlace

ZODB transaction ?!
by Matei Conovici 02 Sep '99

02 Sep '99

Hi! I'm trying to create a folder and put some images in it. My DTML looks somewhat like this:     My problem is that, sometimes the above works but mostly it doesn't :-), and I get something like this: -- Error Type: AttributeError Error Value: commit_sub [...] Traceback (innermost last): File /root/Zope-2.0.0b5-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 209, in publish_module File /root/Zope-2.0.0b5-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 179, in publish File /root/Zope-2.0.0b5-linux2-x86/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 199, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: ElementWithAttributes) File /root/Zope-2.0.0b5-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 169, in publish File /root/Zope-2.0.0b5-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZODB/Transaction.py, line 247, in commit AttributeError: (see above) -- I assume I'm getting this because the transaction with the ZODB for _addFolder does not get (correctly) commit()-ed and the folder object is not yet there when I try to add the immages. This happens with current b5 version and b1 as well... I would _really_ appreciate some hints here :-) Thanks, -- Matei CONOVICI, cmatei(a)roedu.net PS: As a general zope question, is it possible to explicitly ask for commit() in a SQL method ?
