Bug Tracker for Zope?
by Guy Davis 07 Jan '00

07 Jan '00

I was wondering if there was a Bugzilla-like product available for Zope. I have set up both Zope and Bugzilla, but this requires two separate authentication schemes. I haven't seen anything other than the Collector at Zope.org, but the code isn't available for it. Thanks. -- Guy Davis mailto:davis@arc.ab.ca (403) 210-5334 Alberta Research Council

Re: [Zope] Zope and Apache: root of ZODB reference problem?

>Hi Zopesters, >We have a problem with our Zope under Apache installation. >Namely, the rename|cut|copy|delete|export buttons do not work >for checkbox selections in the root of the ZODB. <snip> >The problem seems to be a missing terminal slash in the >URL generated by the management interface web pages. That >is, on our system Apache requires URLs of the form >http://our.ip.address/optics/ to find the Zope cgi script. I've been running into very similar problems. So far most of the examples that have been on this zope site and this mail list have not been able to get me 100% to where I want to be. (They have been extremely helpful however). I was up late last night trying to get the last little bugs out of my implementation on NT (which weems to have some quirly little differences than a Linux installation). I didn't get everything done, but I think I have narrowed down the issues. >The rewrite rule for our installation is: > RewriteRule ^/optics/(.*) /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/$1 > [e=HTTP_CGI_AUTHORIZATION:%1,t=application/x-httpd-cgi,l] My guess is that the /optics/ extraction is what is killing you. I would need to see what else was in your config file. The following syntax fixed one of my problems (but created another). Try this to see if it accomplishes what you want. (Without seeing the rest of your config I may be way off) RewriteRule ^/optics/(.*) /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/optics/$1 [e=HTTP_CGI_AUTHORIZATION:%1,t=application/x-httpd-cgi,l] >Any ideas about how to circumvent this problem? (A non-Zope aside, >can I intercept the URL that is being generated by my browser >when using forms if I can't get access to the Apache logs?) Trying to tie Apache / Zope / Rewrites and Virtual Hosting together has proved much more delicate than I ever expected it to be. When I am done and have things working just as I want, I am planning on putting together a How-To which is leaning from the NT side (client requirement ... no comments please <g>). I'll probably be doing it more for my benefit than anyone elses ... I don't want to have to go through this again <g>. >Any help is much appreciated. I hope I understood your problem. >Darran.

importFromURL not working?
by Timothy Wilson 07 Jan '00

07 Jan '00

Hi everyone, I feel like I'm spamming the list, but I'm just about ready to roll out my brand-new, shiny, Zopified Web site for my school. A couple students and I have been working hard, and this is the last thing on our "To-Do" list before saving our version and sitting back to enjoy the "oohs" and "ahhs" that will undoubtedly come. :-) I'm using Edd's SiteSummary product to import news to our site. So far, so good. It seems to work like a champ. I've created a shellscript to update the news periodically via cron. The script looks like: #!/bin/sh lynx -source http://localhost/headlines/freshmeat.net/importFromURL?url=\ http://freshmeat.net/backend/fm.rdf lynx -source http://localhost/headlines/xmlhack.com/importFromURL?url=\ http://xmlhack.com/rss.php lynx -source http://localhost/headlines/Zope.org/importFromURL?url=\ http://www.zope.org/SiteIndex/news.rss Now I'm trying to get some news from Moreover.com, but the import fails. I'm wondering if it has to do with the filename of the XML source (I'm getting desparate). Does anyone know of a reason that importFromURL would choke on a URL like http://www.moreover.com/cgi-local/page?index_environment+rss I know the file itself isn't the problem because I saved it to a local disk with a different name and it imported fine.

Zope for a article publication site
by Eric BARROCA 07 Jan '00

07 Jan '00

Hello, I'm working on a project for a client : I must build a big website for article publication. It's mean that each journalist who have an account can published his paper on the site, filling a form. Several "design" for the article must be supported and my client want to be able to add easily other article template. That's only a little description of the project, but it's enough to have an idea, I think. First, I though do that with PHP3+PostgreSQL, but I discovered Zope (in linuxweekly's paper) and I think that Zope is more adapted for my needs. I'm testing zope since about 2 weeks, and I begin to understand it pretty well, but I've some questions that I can't understand alone and that don't appear in the doc (I've found something in the ML's archive, but not exactly what I'm looking for) : What way must I choose for designing/storing the templates and the articles ? For storing the article, I don't know what is the best : a ZClasse "article" + ZODB or records in PostgreSQL, knowing that the articles are classed into categories. For the article template, I've found a solution, I think : storing all article's templates (that are DTML methods with some <dtml-var xxx>) in a folder and listing them with a <dtml-in>. Is a good solution ? What do you suggest ? I hope I'll ne able to email you that a new site use Zope, and not have too borrying you with these newbies questions :) Best Regards, Éric. -- Éric BARROCA | Logiciels Libres, Conception Intranet/Extranet, E-Mail: eric(a)netsystems.fr | Sites Web dynamiques, Commerce électronique, Tel: +33 (0)2 48 21 54 67 | Formations (Unix/Linux, Perl, etc.), Réseaux...

I'm trying to use ZOracleDA 2.1.0 or ZOracleDA 2.2.0b1 on my RedHat 6.1 System. I have installed Oracle 8.0.5.1. I can compile and 'python DCOracle_test.py user/pw@sid' works fine. But if I try 'Control-Panel -> Products -> ZOracleDA' I just get this output: ZOracleDA Import Traceback Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/share/zope/lib/python/OFS/Application.py", line 387, in import_products product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly) File "/usr/share/zope/lib/python/Products/ZOracleDA/__init__.py", line 91, in ? import DA File "/usr/share/zope/lib/python/Products/ZOracleDA/DA.py", line 91, in ? from db import DB File "/usr/share/zope/lib/python/Products/ZOracleDA/db.py", line 89, in ? import DCOracle, DateTime File "/usr/share/zope/lib/python/Products/ZOracleDA/DCOracle/__init__.py", line 52, in ? import sys, Buffer ImportError: No module named Buffer Can anybody help me?

RE: [Zope] Zope and Apache: root of ZODB reference problem?

hi darran, remove the slash both from "^/optics/(.*)" and just after Zope.cgi, so that your rule looks like: RewriteRule ^/optics(.*) /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi$1 <etc> this works just fine and dandy for me. jens > -----Original Message----- > From: zope-admin(a)zope.org [mailto:zope-admin@zope.org]On Behalf Of > Darran Edmundson > Sent: Friday, July 10, 2893 18:44 > To: zope(a)zope.org > Subject: Re: [Zope] Zope and Apache: root of ZODB reference problem? > > > > > > Have you tried removing the terminal slash in the rewrite rule? > > > > > > RewriteRule ^/optics/(.*) /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/$1 > > > [e=HTTP_CGI_AUTHORIZATION:%1,t=application/x-httpd-cgi,l] > > Do you mean "^/optics(.*)"???
