Accessing .gif on disk with Python Product?
by Performance.net Strategic Internet Solutions 08 Aug '00

08 Aug '00

I am writing a python product and want to display a GIF file in some of the manage_pages. It is not meant to be the "icon" property of the class, just an image to be included in DTML. I included it in my class as follows: chooser = ImageFile('images/chooser.gif',globals()), but when I call it in DTML (<dtml-var chooser>) I get the following: <ImageFile instance at 014F1D90> I thought maybe I could use an instance of the Image class: chooser = OFS.Image('images/chooser.gif',globals()), but this doesn't seem to work. How do you create an instance of an Image in a Python Product? kh

Gerard, For ideas, you may want to take a look at some of the alternate User Folder implementations. We still need help on deciding an API for user folders.

User authentication and properties
by Gerard Metrailler Jr. 08 Aug '00

08 Aug '00

Hello, I am looking into a solution to extend the normal acl_user management interface. First, I want to have properties associated with a user. This could for example be the email, the real name or their preferences to view a site. Second, I want to replace the normal basic authentication method by a new form that will have authenticate a user through his username, his password and a number that will only be known by the server and the user and that will change on each login. This will most certainly require custom properties and methods usable for each user. I've seen there are different products available (GUF, LoginManager), but I couldn't understand if they where able to do what I want. Any hint on how to use such a product to do this? It also seems to be possible to subclass the acl_user folder. Is there any document explaining how to do this?

Re: [Zope] Sendmail Connection

Is this a sendmail permission > > problem? > Apparently, there is no STMP server listening on the port. One might think that at first. But here's some more info: I originally had the host set as myhost.com, (as an example). I used the correct host name in real life. Also yyy.xxx were substituted below for the real IP address. On IRC I received the following suggestions and their results: mail.myhost.com this yielded: host not found in6.myhost.com this yielded: {'twcook(a)iswt.com': (550, '... Not a local address')} out1.myhost.com Error Type: SMTPConnectError Error Value: (450, 'unauthorized interface for 24.113.89.xxx') out2.myhost.com Error Type: SMTPConnectError Error Value: (450, 'unauthorized interface for 24.113.yyy.xxx') out3.myhost.com Error Type: SMTPSenderRefused Error Value: (550, 'Access denied', 'twcook(a)myhost.com') out4.myhost.com Error Type: SMTPConnectError Error Value: (450, 'unauthorized interface for 24.113.89.xxx') out5.myhost.com Error Type: SMTPConnectError Error Value: (450, 'unauthorized interface for 24.113.89.xxx') The out3 attempt looks like it wants to work but twcook is not an authorized user. BUT! I can go into a terminal session in the /home/twcook directory and type; mail twcook(a)iswt.com and enter a message and it's mailed to this address okay. I did confirm that sendmail is using port 25. Any idea what I need to change so that Zope will have permission to send mail? -- Tim Cook -- FreePM Project Coordinator - http://www.freepm.org OS Healthcare Alliance Supporter - http://www.oshca.org

Hardware minimum for development

You did say development, right? I'm running a personal Zope installation (not by choice, but by reason of poverty) on a 486-DX, 66mhz, 16 megs of RAM, with SuSE 6.4 Linux. It works fine, (no, really!) but I sure wouldn't put a load on it. Only about twenty other people even know about it/use it sporadically, so that hasn't been a problem. jb ------------------------------- Jonathan Broad DoITNET Webadmin--- ---Resource Center Librarian "For a list of the ways which technology has failed to improve our quality of life, press 3."

You need a patch found at HTTP://www.dieter.handshake.de/pyprojects/zope/localfs.pat With this patch, you do it the same way as for DTML methods/documents. > 3)Can I combine LocalFS and Yihaw???

You could use an external method that renders (calls) the DTML method/document and writes the result to the file system. HTTP://www.dieter.handshake.de/pyprojects/zope/CatalogSupport.html shows you the rendering part. I, however, would probably use "wget" to extract the rendered pages from Zope and store them externally. Dieter

interating though REQUEST.form in python???
by Kevin Howe 08 Aug '00

08 Aug '00

I'm trying to do a FOR statement to loop though items in a REQUEST, but keep getting errors: def myMethod(self,REQUEST): for name,value in REQUEST.form: # do this I've tried variations: for name,value in REQUEST.items: for item in REQUEST.form.items: for key in REQUEST.keys: but none seem to work. When I used "return REQUEST.form", a Dictionary was displayed like so: {'item': 'val1', 'item2':'val2', etc.} so I tried fetching it as a plain dictionary: form = REQUEST.form return form.keys but no luck. Is it not possible to access the REQUEST methods via python? Kevin
