Help: Weird KeyError with 2.2.0a1
by Pete Kazmier 07 Jun '00

07 Jun '00

Hi, I was playing around with 2.2.0a1 and I've stumbled upon a corrupted database I think. I'm new so please bare with me. I was hoping someone could help me recover. Everytime I start Zope, I get the following error: 2000-06-06T21:20:50 ERROR(200) ZODB Couldn't load state for '\000\000\000\000\000\000\000\006' Traceback (innermost last): File /home/zope/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py, line 421, in setstate File /home/zope/lib/python/ZODB/FileStorage.py, line 584, in load (Object: /home/zope/var/Data.fs) File /home/zope/lib/python/ZODB/FileStorage.py, line 560, in _load (Object: /home/zope/var/Data.fs) KeyError: Traceback (innermost last): File "/home/zope/z2.py", line 547, in ? exec "import "+MODULE in {} File "<string>", line 1, in ?

Right before this problem occurred, I had packed my database, but things were working ok immediately following that, then a few moments later, I kept getting errors, so I stopped the Zope processes and restarted. Could someone please point me in the right direction? I wasn't sure if I was supposed to post this to the dev list since I'm using an alpha, but I'm hoping those people read this too.

Re: [Zope] Mozilla problem

If you're on Linux, there's some godawful problems recently with the auth dialog. The last couple of days don't even bring up a dialog. http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla/nightly/2000-06-05-08-M16/ works to the point of popping up a dialog, but to enter the password you have to enter it into another window, copy it, and paste it into the password box. To get one that actually does auth properly on Linux, go back to late April :( Anthony >>> Martijn Pieters wrote > On Tue, Jun 06, 2000 at 01:27:48PM -0700, Timothy Grant wrote: > > I've recently started experimenting with Mozilla M16.

Mozilla problem
by Timothy Grant 07 Jun '00

07 Jun '00

Hi, I've recently started experimenting with Mozilla M16. While my pages seem to work beautifully, I can't get into any of the management screens. When I add /manage to the URL, I get nothing, no authentication box no error, nothing. Am I missing something, or is Mozilla missing something? -- Stand Fast, tjg.

ZOPE, Xemacs, html-mode, & indentation

It appears that XEmacs html-mode parses the html in the buffer. If it doesn't parse correctly, the indentation stuff doesn't work. To see this, try editing something without any dtml in it -- indentation should work fine. As soon as you add <dtml-var standard_html_header> at the top, indentation stops working. I guess the fix is to write a dtml DTD for XEmacs html-mode. Has anyone already done this? -- Bob

deleting objects
by Webmaster 07 Jun '00

07 Jun '00

Sorry if this one is obvious. I created a dtml method named "dev_header" in my site root. In another folder further down my tree I created another "dev_header" with different info. I then deleted the second "dev_header" (/news/dev_header) expecting my pages to then grab the "dev_header" from the root directory, but they don't. Why? Jamey

I have noticed a buglet in the dtml-var expression evaluation:- <dtml-var "x/y*z"> Is the same as <dtml-var "x/(y*z)"> this is obviously wrong :-) so I need to expressly put <dtml-var "(x/y)*z"> -- Totally Holistic Enterprises Internet| P:+61 7 3870 0066 | Andrew Milton The Internet (Aust) Pty Ltd | F:+61 7 3870 4477 | ACN: 082 081 472 | M:+61 416 022 411 | Carpe Daemon PO Box 837 Indooroopilly QLD 4068 |akm(a)theinternet.com.au|
