I don't _know_ yet, but I suspect :^) I think that something is running afoul of the new security checking inside the __call__ method of SQLMethod objects. If someone wants to use the Zope debugger (the debugger is your friend!) to sniff into this, that is where you should start. Under the debugger, set a breakpoint in the __call__ of the DA class in lib/python/Shared/DC/ZRDB/DA.py. Stepping through should point out what object is failing authorization. If anyone is so inclined, Michel P. has a very good debugger how-to: http://www.zope.org/Members/michel/HowTos/TheDebuggerIsYourFriend ...and let me know what you find out. I won't be around Friday, but I was planning to put on the sherlock hat and work this out Monday - of course I hope someone beats me to it :^) Brian Lloyd brian(a)digicool.com Software Engineer 540.371.6909 Digital Creations http://www.digicool.com

Or like "dope", which is what I felt like when I first started learning Zope. -=Brad=- *Certified Zope newbie and system crasher* > But some people pronounce it like "soap" with a Z instead > of an S at the beginning.

Limits on text posting
by Carlos A. Carnero Delgado 18 May '00

18 May '00

Hello again, zopistas! Actually, this is not directly related to Zope, but I just wanted to know. I have a simple form with a textarea, exactly, how much text fits in a text area? I mean, is there an upper limit to the number of characters the end user can type in the textarea? -- [ c a r l o s c a r n e r o ] [ r t v c o m e r c i a l ] [ t e x e l @ r t v c . c o m . c u ]

ZODBC connection & start method
by Stephen Nosal 18 May '00

18 May '00

Folks - I'm now finding some interesting behavior with the ZODBC connection. I set up a connection and had no problems with it (requires DSN id password). I went back to it at a later point in time and it no longer worked. What changed? I'm running ZOPE 2.1.6 on NT4 sp4. I started out running ZOPE from the start.bat file. type start.bat "c:\zope\ZopeDIR\bin\python.exe" "c:\zope\ZopeDIR\z2.py" -D -w 80 -a 127.0.0.1 If I start ZOPE from the start.bat file, the ODBC connection works flawlessly (with my minor testing) If I start ZOPE as a service (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\ZopeDIR\Parameters = "c:\zope\ZopeDIR\bin\python.exe" "c:\zope\ZopeDIR\z2.py" -S -D -w 80 -a 127.0.0.1) and then attempt to open the ODBC connection, I receive the following error Invalid connection string: DSN id password (changed for obvious reasons) Traceback (innermost last): File c:\zope\ZopeDIR\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 214, in publish_module File c:\zope\ZopeDIR\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 179, in publish File c:\zope\ZopeDIR\lib\python\Zope\__init__.py, line 202, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: RoleManager) File c:\zope\ZopeDIR\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 165, in publish File c:\zope\ZopeDIR\lib\python\ZPublisher\mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: manage_open_connection) File c:\zope\ZopeDIR\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 102, in call_object (Object: manage_open_connection) File c:\zope\ZopeDIR\lib\python\Shared\DC\ZRDB\Connection.py, line 209, in manage_open_connection (Object: RoleManager) File c:\zope\ZopeDIR\lib\python\Shared\DC\ZRDB\Connection.py, line 227, in connect (Object: RoleManager) File c:\zope\ZopeDIR\lib\python\Products\ZODBCDA\db.py, line 155, in __init__ BadRequest: (see above) Has anyone experienced this before? Any thoughts? I much prefer running Zope as a service, but...
