Accessing methods in Python Objects
by Cyril 01 Dec '00

01 Dec '00

Hi Zopistas, My first message :-) How can access Python objects' methods from a DTML Method. I get An 'Unauthorized' exception. I would like to do the following: <dtml-let myObj="newObj()"> <dtml-var "myObj.sayHello()"> <dtml-call "myObj.setValue('Bonjour')"> etc... </dtml-let> where 'newObj()' is defined in an Extensions module as: import someObject # a module defining the someObject class def newObj(): return someObject.Object() Actually I must wrap methods in my extension module, not very clean :-/ Is it possible to create roles and permissions in Extensions modules ? And if yes, is a good fellow ready to explain how :-) Thanks in advance, Cyril Elkaim

Why GUF or Loginmanager??
by brocken22＠gmx.de 01 Dec '00

Hallo, I'got a fundamental question: Why should you switch from the built-in authentication mechanism to a product like GUF or Login-manager?? Except of the different login interface, I dosn't see any advantage?? Please correct me. What I'm looking for is a product that redirects the authenticated-user to the part of the website where he has got his "home-folder" and also nice wolud be a search-function which gives an administrator a list of all the users with all the roles in the system. -- Sent through GMX FreeMail - http://www.gmx.net

As luck would have it, the file did not import into Products (File /usr/local/Zope/lib/python/OFS/CopySupport.py, line 406, in _verifyObjectPaste) It DID import into the root folder (I did this purely by accident!) I was then able to recreate the called-for classes and IT WORKED!! I haven't figured out HOW yet but I will. Thanks a lot for the help, and let me know if you need any fancy Python methods...

Hi, Just to try , by using import/export i ported the product to another windows 98 machine.I am able to open the whole folder in the ported machine. The problem is i am not able to add a new record there using the existing script.If write new script to add record to the same table it works . so why it this happens like this ?. Do we need to import any other files?.When i add a record using existing scripts it asks for username & password. when i type it , it doesn't take. Thanks, jacintha

Finding PARENTS in an external method.
by Max M 01 Dec '00

I have an external Method. How do I call PARENTS[-1] from it? in dtml it would be: <dtml-in "PARENTS[-1].objectValues('Folder')"> I have tried something like: self.PARENTS[-1].objectValues('Folder') I have also checked if PARENTS get passed to the method like: myMethod(self, PARENTS=None): To get a list of the root's Folder's, but no luck.

I am a zope newbie and I have downloaded Xen to try. I realise it is no longer being developed but has anyone got it to work with Zope2.2.4? Whatever I try and open it gives me the following error message: AttributeError Sorry, a Zope error occurred. Traceback (innermost last): File /usr/local/Zope224/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 222, in publish_module File /usr/local/Zope224/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 187, in publish File /usr/local/Zope224/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 221, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: Traversable) File /usr/local/Zope224/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 162, in publish File /usr/local/Zope224/lib/python/ZPublisher/BaseRequest.py, line 442, in traverse File /usr/local/Zope224/lib/python/Products/XUserFolder/GenericUserFolder.py, line 457, in validate (Object: Traversable) File /usr/local/Zope224/lib/python/Products/XUserFolder/GenericUserFolder.py, line 408, in _cookie_validate (Object: Traversable) File /usr/local/Zope224/lib/python/Products/XUserFolder/GenericUserFolder.py, line 258, in _recurse_validate (Object: Traversable) AttributeError: 'None' object has no attribute 'authenticate' Any ideas?

Alexander DePauli writes: > ... using Zope management interface with custom objects ... The form actions of the Zope management interface are not built in. They are methods of the managed objects. This implies, if your objects override these management method, you get different behaviour. I am not sure, whether ZClass'es will allow you to override the methods. If not, you will need special Python base classes that implement the basic infrastructure for you ZClasses. Dieter

Re: [Zope] SQL and dtml-tree

> ... dtml-tree with SQL tables ... There is a HowTo on zope.org about advanced usage of dtml-tree. Search for "tree". I think, it covers the use of "dtml-tree" with SQL tables. Alternatively, you may search the list archive (at NIP). There are several threads on this issue. Dieter
