Hi Kevin, Thanks for the reply but could you possibly explain what to change? Except for the "selected" tag which is only used to preset the selection choice, everything seems to be the same. Can you confirm that your DegreeTypes property is of type "lines" and simply consists of carriage-return-separated text? Any help would be much appreciated - I can't take my site live until I get these forms working. Cheers, Darran.

One of the intranet's primary functions will be a bulletin board, and I have tried programming a mailto form three different ways using tutorials. It has yet to work. My most recent attempt involved creating a mail host and the feedback/sendfeedback documents. However, upon submission I get an SMTP error saying that the domain must be specified. I have checked with the tech guys here and maybe they're high on smack, but I believe the host and mail addresses are correct.

you don't "create" local users, all that info comes straight out of whatever imap server you connect to. if someone isn't known to that imap server you can't log in. about the pointing to www.worldpilot.org, did you read the (small) doc that comes with it that explains to change DOMAIN.py in the products directory? jens -----Original Message----- From: zope-admin(a)zope.org [mailto:zope-admin@zope.org]On Behalf Of Andrew Diller Sent: Monday, February 07, 2000 3:38 PM To: zope(a)zope.org Subject: [Zope] using WorldPilot Anyone using WorldPilot? http://demo.worldpilot.com:8080/site/ I've got it up and running on my Alpha server, but I can't see how to create any local users.

Database connections
by Stephan Richter 07 Feb '00

07 Feb '00

Hello everyone, My client went live with a site today and we are having huge problems with the DB connections. Every one out of five times the request will time out. We are heavily using DB tables for our data storage. (We are using PostGres.) My client has read that other people experienced the same issue, since only 7 DB connections are allowed at a given time. She read that you can hack the python code somewhere. I am sure you guys know how to do this. If you could send me a set of instructions of how to fix it, that would be great.
