Ann: ZWiki Web 0.2 Released
by Chris Withers 18 May '00

18 May '00

This is my attempt at bundling up Simon's excellent ZWiki product with all its methods in such a way that you can create a whole WikiWeb folder by selecting a ZWikiWeb from the "Available Objects" dropdown. It's available from: http://www.zope.org/Members/chrisw/ZWikiWeb ZWiki can be found at: http://www.zope.org/Members/simon/ZWiki The changes made we: -Gave Manager proxy role to the ZWikiWebAdd DTML Method so that non-root users can add ZWiki Webs. -Renamed the permission for adding ZWiki Webs from 'Add ZWiki Pages' to 'Add ZWiki Webs'. If anyone can think of any problems with these changes, please let me know :-) cheers, Chris

Zcatalog : putting the search result in frame
by Sin Hang Kin 18 May '00

18 May '00

Hello, How can I put the search result into a frame? I create the search interface with the zsearchinterface, it have the searchform and reportpage generated. I intended to put the reportpage into a frame, I have modified the searchform page's action to point to the frameset instead of directly point to reportpage. I think that the form data were lost when the frame page load the reportpage, I got an Key Error with the following traceback Traceback (innermost last): File C:\Program Files\WebSite\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 214, in publish_module File C:\Program Files\WebSite\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 179, in publish File C:\Program Files\WebSite\lib\python\Zope\__init__.py, line 202, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: ElementWithAttributes) File C:\Program Files\WebSite\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 165, in publish File C:\Program Files\WebSite\lib\python\ZPublisher\mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: r) File C:\Program Files\WebSite\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 102, in call_object (Object: r) File C:\Program Files\WebSite\lib\python\OFS\DTMLMethod.py, line 150, in __call__ (Object: r) File C:\Program Files\WebSite\lib\python\DocumentTemplate\DT_String.py, line 502, in __call__ (Object: r) File C:\Program Files\WebSite\lib\python\DocumentTemplate\DT_In.py, line 611, in renderwb (Object: nameauth) KeyError: (see above) How can I put the result into a frame?

Unstable Zope when started at boot time Linux.....centinel solutions not very acceptable very acceptable
by Felipe E. Barousse 18 May '00

18 May '00

I do believe this approach will work to restart crashed Zope but, I would expect Zope to work correctly and be very stable when it is started from one of the rc startup scripts. Well, at least it is a way to keep the system kind of working with "minimal" downtime....... My original idea was to put the start script as an inittab entry. Also I got a respone referencing some other utilities to keep Zope "alive" (i.e. restart it if crashed) Maybe any of the Zope developers people can give us some illumination as to know what may be happening with this phenomenom of crashing Zope if started at boot time.

Stopping tracebacks from appearing in HTML output
by David Trudgett 18 May '00

18 May '00

My boss is the paranoid type, and doesn't want Python traceback information being spat out in the event of an error (such as a NotFound error). I've customised the standard_error_message, but the traceback is still appended (albeit after the </html> tag). Is there any way to stop this behaviour? David Trudgett

Re: [Zope] Zope.org down?
by Alexandre Ratti 18 May '00

18 May '00

Hi Alexander, The Howto and Tip PDF compilations are available there: <http://alexandre.ratti.free.fr/ZopeDocs/>. You can download both files and browse them offline. Main download URL is on the Zope site: <http://www.zope.org/Members/AlexR/ZopeDocs/>. It's not a true mirror since both compilations are only updated once a month. Cheers.

Is the source/product available for the Bug Collector? Alternately, are there any alternatives to iTrack? I like it, but want to edit some things that it doesn't' easily allow access to.

Newbie - problem connecting to MS Access DSN
by richard＠folwell.com 18 May '00

18 May '00

Andy, I have this working fine. Are you running NT or \'98? If NT is Zope running as a service? If so, did you create your DSN as a System DSN? Richard -------- part of original message ---------------- Right, that over, here\'s my plea: I\'m trying to create a connection object to a MS Access 97 database. I\'ve installed the ODBC DA product but I cannot get my connection to actually connect. The error I get is, \"invalid connection string: project,\" (project is the DSN name).
