Having troubles starting Zope.
by Dany Rioux 22 Nov '00

22 Nov '00

0 *H÷ 010 +0 *H÷ $áContent-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi listers, Until this afternoon, I was using zope (more like trying to use it) and everything was ok. I had some problems with the .deb SiteAccess but I fixed it by getting the real thing from zope.org and it worked. I added the latest Hotfix because it's a good thing to have. Then I restarted Zope but it never went back up again. The box is Linux debian woody with Zope 2.2.2 When I try to start it up, that's the message I get: ---------<PASTE>----------- drioux:/etc/init.d# ./zope start Starting Zope...Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/sbin/zope-z2", line 535, in ? except: CLIENT_HOME = os.path.join(INSTANCE_HOME, 'var') NameError: INSTANCE_HOME failed. ---------</PASTE>---------- I went to check the line seeming to cause this and there's a comment about ZEO: ---------<PASTE>----------- # CLIENT_HOME allows ZEO clients to easily keep distinct pid and # log files. This is currently an *experimental* feature, as I expect # that increasing ZEO deployment will cause bigger changes to the # way that z2.py works fairly soon. try: CLIENT_HOME = os.environ['CLIENT_HOME'] except: CLIENT_HOME = os.path.join(INSTANCE_HOME, 'var') ---------</PASTE>---------- I remember seeing something about ZEO on zope.org but I don't remember if it was an update or whatelse but AFAIK I didn't installed and/or I don't use a ZEO client. Now, I'm a total Zope newbie. Ok maybe not total but I'm a basic newbie and I wonder if the Hotfix fixed too much... I tried to move the Hotfix directory elsewhere but that didn't change a thing. Anyone can offer help or maybe it's already been discussed. I looked at the list's past 2 months but came up empty.

Re: Version Lock/save/discard Problem

>We have had the same problem with "saving" Versions on zope 2.2.2 + >ZEO. Our ZSS servers are on linux and our Zope Clients are on NT >(don't ask). I have all ZSS and ZCS on NT but I isolated the possible zeo's related problem running my Data.fs on a standalone zope and the problems persisted. >The only solution that worked for us so far is to repeatedly modify >the locked object and re-save the version. If it doesn't work at >first try again after a few hours. Eventually (after a dozen or so >tries) it seems to sort itself out. >We haven't seen documents become folders yet, but most of the work >was done in ZClasses. I solved the problem with some packs to the Database. In no understandable way after one of the packs the discard and save worked okay. In one of the packs I got this output: ERROR(200) ZODB FS FS21 ERROR: Bad reference to ('\000\000\000\000\000\010kQ','myversion') ERROR(200) ZODB FS FS21 ERROR: Bad reference to ('\000\000\000\000\000\010]\250','myversion') Its obviously there was something wrong with myversion object, but only after some more packs the save/discard worked okay. But I quit versions because the locking of a folder when you add objects is not a good feature of versions, specially if the one locked is root, means you just loose the possibility of changing your online "version" of your site like adding new objects, and changing locked ones. I know this versionlock happened with CatalogAware objects from experience with zope 2.1.6 but for instance the locking of a document even for a change out of the version is something never happened in 2.1.6. I'm just seeing this in 222, maybe this is a result of those objects being in a locked folder.

Here you go Tom. I think this is what you are looking for. There's probably a more streamlined way to implement it, but this seems to work nicely. Sorry for the VB-style variable names (grin) Hope you find it useful. -Eric. Here's the (ONLY) DTML used to test the functions: -----8<-----8<-----8<----- <dtml-call expr="REQUEST.set('d', ZopeTime('1999/11/21'))"> Here's the result of dateInNMonths on November 21, 1999 + 6 months:<br> <dtml-var expr="dateInNMonths(this(),d, 6)"> <br> -----8<-----8<-----8<----- I implemented it using two "Python Methods" as follows: -----8<-----8<-----8<----- ID: daysPerMonth Parameters: ZopeDateTime <-- Pass in a Zope Date Time object Function: if ZopeDateTime.isLeapYear(): intDaysInFebruary = 29 else: intDaysInFebruary = 28 strMonthName=ZopeDateTime.Month() dicDaysPerMonth = {'January':31,'February':intDaysInFebruary,'March':31,'April':30,'May':31,'J une':30,'July':31,'August':31,'September':30,'October':31,'November':30,'Dec ember':31} return dicDaysPerMonth.get(strMonthName, 0) -----8<-----8<-----8<----- ID: dateInNMonths Parameters: self, ZopeDateTime, Months Function: days = self.daysPerMonth(ZopeDateTime) - ZopeDateTime.day() + 1 i = 2 while i < Months: nextDate = ZopeDateTime + days days = days + self.daysPerMonth(nextDate) i = i + 1 days = days + ZopeDateTime.day() - 1 return ZopeDateTime + days -----8<-----8<-----8<----- -----Original Message----- From: Eric Walstad [mailto:Eric@Walstads.net] Sent: Tuesday, November 21, 2000 10:19 AM To: Tom Deprez Subject: RE: [Zope] Date Hi Again Tom, OK, This is an interesting one that I may need later on.
