Tell someone to go to the url .../versionobj/enter This will set a cookie. Then when they view the website, they will see the website that's in the version. they should go to .../versionobj/leave Some other miscellaneous notes on Versions... The behaviour of Versions is something like using RCS with everyone checking out the code into a different workspace. That is, only one person can be modifying any particular object at a time. You can also only be looking at, or working in, one Version at a time. A couple of questions I have: Is it possible to get a list of all objects modified in a Version? Is it possible to revert changes for a particular object only, rather than save/discard all changes for a Version? On a vaguely related note, has anyone thought about doing something with XML Export files and diff? It would be kinda cool to be able to take 2 daily XML export files, and produce a tree structure listing changed objects... Anthony

Confera 1.2 on 2.0.0
by Grant Street 02 Sep '99

02 Sep '99

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. Grant Traceback (innermost last): File C:\Program Files\ZopeWebSite2.0\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 214, in publish_module File C:\Program Files\ZopeWebSite2.0\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 179, in publish File C:\Program Files\ZopeWebSite2.0\lib\python\Zope\__init__.py, line 201, in zpublisher_exception_hook File C:\Program Files\ZopeWebSite2.0\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 165, in publish File C:\Program Files\ZopeWebSite2.0\lib\python\ZPublisher\mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: addMessage) File C:\Program Files\ZopeWebSite2.0\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 102, in call_object (Object: addMessage) File lib/python/Products/Confera/Confera.py, line 565, in addMessage File C:\Program Files\ZopeWebSite2.0\bin\lib\regsub.py, line 38, in gsub AttributeError: (see above)

It is available for NT but I seem to be having problems with it. I guess no one else has tried so I'm on my own.

Yes you're seeing the incompatibility of the Current ODBC DA with the new transaction machienery. I've got a patch, and as soon as it's tested, we will release a new version (though it will still be "thunked" because of gross idiocy in the ODBC spec)...

Zope Newbie Needs Install Help, part two
by John Turner 02 Sep '99

02 Sep '99

Hi All - Thanks for all of the replies to my original thread (Zope Newbie Needs Install Help). Basically, when I saw the Zope 2 announcement this afternoon, I decided to start over. I uninstalled beta6 from my Win98 machine, downloaded the Win32 binary of Zope2, and installed it. Double-clicked start.bat, and got some output! (this had never happened with the betas). So, the management screen works...now all I need to figure out is where to go from here! Thanks for the help...maybe I will tackle my RedHat6 boxes over the weekend with the new release. - John john(a)johnturner.com

I can say pretty definately that as much as people want to talk about this, there's no plans anywhere in the future to do this. If someone wants to do this, this is a good community project, but I can think of dozens of other places where huge performance bonuses could be gained before this kind of micro-optimization will ever make an impact. Caching offsets this a huge amount. BTW, my benchmarks on Oracle on raw devices v. file systems shows that on non-RAID that raw is 5-10% faster, but on RAID, it's 2-3x slower... so I don't see this as some huge benefit. Theory and reality rarely are kissing cousins. Chris -- | Christopher Petrilli Python Powered Digital Creations, Inc. | petrilli(a)digicool.com http://www.digicool.com
