ZPyGreSQLDA broken problem
by Richard Moon 13 Jun '00

13 Jun '00

I've just installed Zope 2.1.6 and PostgreSQL 7.02 and now I get a broken ZPyGreSQLDA with the following Traceback (innermost last): File "/opt/Zope-2.1.6-linux2-x86/lib/python/OFS/Application.py", line 387, in import_products product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly) File "/opt/Zope-2.1.6-linux2-x86/lib/python/Products/ZPyGreSQLDA/__init__.py", line 89, in ? import sys, os, Globals, DA File "/opt/Zope-2.1.6-linux2-x86/lib/python/Products/ZPyGreSQLDA/DA.py", line 91, in ? from db import DB File "/opt/Zope-2.1.6-linux2-x86/lib/python/Products/ZPyGreSQLDA/db.py", line 89, in ? import _pg, regex, sys, types ImportError: No module named _pg I can import _pg from the python command line. I still have a Zope 2.1.4 installed and that works fine with PostgreSQL 7.02, though I haven't tried re-installing it. (Running on Linux 2.1 with PostgreSQL binary RPMs if thats any help). Any clues as to the problem ? Thanks Richard Richard Moon richard(a)dcs.co.uk

Restricting access to Confera
by ryon＠altavista.net 13 Jun '00

13 Jun '00

I'm confused about the way Zope restricts access to products such as Confera. I think I know about adding users, and setting their roles, and setting permissions on objects. Acquisitional Zen escapes me, but I suppose I know enough of it to get along. Unfortunately, when I put this all into practice, things don't work the way I think they should! I'm just trying to do simple stuff here. Let's say we have a Zope website on sailing. It has a public section which everyone is invited to view, and a section we wish to restrict just to sailboat captains. The default works well for the public pages, but we have to do some special things in order to make the restricted stuff restricted. So we create a role of "captain". In the acl_users folder for the pages we want to restrict, we add the user "Blackbeard" and give him a captain role. In the to-be-restricted folder, under the security tab, we check the "Access contents information", "Can Login and Logout", and "View" roles under "captain", then tediously uncheck all of the "Acquire permission settings". Things are just fine so far, I think. Blackbeard can get in, and everyone else is kept out. The problem is when we want to add a product like Confera, and only let Blackbeard and his captain buddies use it. There is apparently something very different about the way Zope handles products. Obviously, there are several more permissions that need to be checked due to the added functionality, such as "Add Confera Topics" etc., but regardless of how many permissions I check under the captain role, Zope+Confera will not let Blackbeard or the other captains in!

error (200)
by Mike Mikkelsen 13 Jun '00

13 Jun '00

Hello all, My Zope (2.1.6) installation has just become *very* unstable. My most recent addition has been ZPatterns and LoginManager. My passwords for my virtual sites (using SiteRoot) are no longer accessable by my account and superuser can't access them. The site "disappears" three or four times a day without errors. And clicking on Product Management link sometimes returns "No Data" notice in the browser and then Zope crashes. This is the error that shows up on the console when going to Product Management or accessing the subdir that holds the subdir that has LoginManager: <date> ERROR (200) ZODB Couldn't Load State for '\000\000\000\000\000\000\002\017' I'm exporting the sites now and am going to (I guess) re-install zope and all of the products. >8-/ Are there any other options? Any ideas on what went wrong? Is their a way to fix a corruption in the ZODB?

How to call methods of a ZClass superclass?
by cs＠comlounge.net 13 Jun '00

13 Jun '00

Hi there! I have a little problem here: I created two ZClasses, where one is derived from the other, let's say A is the superclass and B the subclass. In both classes I created a dtml method called foobar(). Now when I have an instance of B, called b, and I call foobar on it, as in <dtml-with b> <dtml-var "foobar()"> </dtml-with> and I want to call A's foobar() method inside B's foobar() method, how do I do this? (Actually I have two methods which show forms to fill out and I B's form contains more. So I want to make B's form to show also the contents of A's form without copying the code.. Thus I simply want to call A's method to show his part of the form.) In Python I would write class A: def foobar(self): do something; class B(A): def foobar(self): A.foobar(self) do something more; but with ZClasses it seems to be different (I hope it's possible at all.. ;-) Any ideas? best, Christian
