Security problem i 2.2 final - Bug?
by Peter Arvidsson 19 Jul '00

19 Jul '00

I have a very anoying problem... I have created a news-product and have several news-objects. Now I want to change the properties of a news-object. This is my code for that: <dtml-with "newsEntries"> <dtml-call "_[objId].propertysheets[1].manage_editProperties( header=REQUEST['header'], date=REQUEST['date'], author=REQUEST['author'], email=REQUEST['mail'], text=REQUEST['text'], )"> </dtml-with> 'newsEntries' is the folder where I store my news-objects. 'objId' is the id of the product as a string. Everytime I try to change properties a login prompt is displayed. The problem is that I get access denied whoever I login as. My user has the same permissions as the superuser and even when I login as the superuser I get access denied. I have changed so that I am the owner of both the product 'news' and the news objects, the methods that I use and the folders that my objects and methods are in. I really dont know what this problem could be. I thought these problems was supposed to be resolved for 2.2 final but maybe there are some bugs left? I dont get this problem when I run the code in 2.1.6. I have also tried different possibilities in the code, I have both used changeProperties and editProperties. I have also tried to write the name of the propertysheet instead of '[1]' but everything renders the same problem. Really beacause I am the owner of everything and I have the same rights as the superuser I dont think I should be "unauthorized" to change my objects. I have no problem to add and to delete these objects so why cant I change them?

Broken products in 2.2 - bug?
by Peter Arvidsson 19 Jul '00

19 Jul '00

Is products treated in a different way in 2.2 final than in 2.1.6? When I restart Zope all instances of my (and some imported) products become broken because it cant find the product it is an instance of. 963996281 (This object from the unknown product is broken!) I have compared with Zope 2.1.6 and the data of the news object are the same in both distributions: <?xml version="1.0" ?> <ZopeData> <record id="8178" aka="AAAAAAAAH/I="> <pickle> <tuple> <tuple id="8178.3"> <string id="8178.1" encoding="repr">*ZENGX/ck1V8gtZ9GtNHQ7w==</string> <string id="8178.2" encoding="repr">News</string> </tuple> <none /> </tuple> </pickle> ... </ZopeData> Also the data about my News object are the same where 'News' have 'class id'='ZENGX/ck1V8gtZ9GtNHQ7w==' Now the only difference is that there is no '*' in the 'class id' but there is the same difference in 2.2 final as in 2.1.6 som that shouldnt mean any differences. When I add instances in 2.1.6 and restart the server everything works fine but when I do the same thing in 2.2 final my news objects become broken. The same thing happens to for example the PDFProduct that I downloaded. Is there a different way to handle products in 2.2 final or is this a bug?

Implementing full text search
by Erich Seifert 19 Jul '00

19 Jul '00

Hi folks, I tried to create a full text search for my existing site. All went fine: I can search my whole site's document contents (via PrincipaSourceSearch) and titles (using 'or' as in advanced zcatalog searching how-to). The problem I have at the moment is that Zope only searches in unrendered content and all html and dtml code is found also when searching. How can I search my documents with all dtml-vars inserted and without all html code or at least dtml code? I there a solution? Any help appreciated.

Re: [Fwd: [Zope] Announce: ZBabel a Translation Assistant for Zope]
by fog＠mixadlive.com 19 Jul '00

19 Jul '00

hi *, i read with much interest this thread about ZBabel, because it seems to do something like the Translator product. > Suppose web site in source language has something like this: > > 'Click <A href="{fieldX(someVar.A)}">here</A>, for {fieldY(someVar.B)}' > > With suitably horrific DTML instead of ' ' and {}. > > Rendered english result would be, for some particular dynamic instance of > someVar: > > 'Click <A href="http://www.zope.org/">here</A> for Zope' > > Translator for language X decides to reverse the positions of fieldA and > fieldB and use 3 separate substrings, because it is too abrupt for that > language, so translates to something like: > > 'If you would like {fieldY(someVar.B)}, click <A > href="{fieldX(someVar.A)}">this link</A>, please' > > There are now 3 substrings in the translation because it would be rude not > to start or end with something like "please" in language X, and it reads > better with the fields reversed in that language. > > Final rendered result becomes (in language X): > > 'If you would like Zope, click <A href="http://www.zope.org/">this link</A>, > please' > > depending on the particular value of someVar at the time. ok. Translator allows for that using just one (1) translated string. you create a translator and put inside it a translated item (naming it my_localized_text, for example): language1: Click <A href="<dtml-var "someVar.A">">here</A>, for <dtml-var "someVar.B"> language2: If you would like <dtml-var "someVar.B">, click <A href="<dtml-var "someVar.A">">this link</A>, please. Then in the main body of your page you put: <dtml-lvar my_localized_text> and you get exactly what you want. BTW, Translator also allow you to take an url of a localized object, to do stuff like: <img src="<dtml-lvar first_logo_png url>" usemap=...> At now, the Transaltor does not support at now an easy way to generate catalogues (as ZBabel does, i think.) I'll add that in a future release. Or, if the author of ZBabel wants, we can try to merge the two projects to and produce a single, usefull product. ciao, federico -- Federico Di Gregorio MIXAD LIVE System Programmer fog(a)mixadlive.com Debian GNU/Linux Developer & Italian Press Contact fog(a)debian.org 99.99999999999999999999% still isn't 100% but sometimes suffice. -- Me

RE:[Zope] LoginManager 0.8.6 on Zope 2.1.6

You need to install the ZPattern package to Zope. You can get it at Zope.org. After that it should work fine /Mathias Bengtsson --Hi there --I tried to install LoginManager 0.8.6 owith Zope 2.1.6 but that failed.

Thanks for the help. Wouldn't it be a good idea to include this information somewhere in the documentation, or have I missed it? It would be even better (for me at any rate) if there was some other way to change user and/or log out.

Problems with Coding differences to do same stuff...
by Felipe E. Barousse Boué 19 Jul '00

19 Jul '00

Hello all: Trying to do a simple thing as creating a document and then adding a property with an DTML method, found that the following code does not work, it comes up with a password request (all security settings are at defaults): <dtml-call "company.noticias.manage_addDTMLDocument(titulo,subtitulo,texto)"> <dtml-with "company.noticias._[titulo]"> <dtml-call "propertysheets.manage_addProperty('link',resumen,'text')" > </dtml-with> titulo,subtitulo and resumen come from a form that calls itself upon validating the submit button value. Of course folders company and noticias DO exist. This instead works: <dtml-call "company.noticias.manage_addDTMLDocument(titulo,subtitulo,texto)"> <dtml-with "company.noticias"> <dtml-in objectValues> <dtml-in propertyValues> <dtml-if "id() == _[titulo]"> <dtml-with id> <dtml-call "propertysheets.manage_addProperty('link',resumen,'text')" > </dtml-with> </dtml-if> This is the hard way of doing it, I believe. What is wrong with the first sample of code ? As said before, something about permissions is wrong on the first case and the 2nd one works even nothing related to security has been changed. Both pieces of code live in the same form. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Ed.
