It already does that. So if you want to make your own LIMIT clause, just set max_rows to 0.

ZMySQLDA problems after upgrade
by Randall F. Kern 26 Jan '01

26 Jan '01

I recently moved my product from zope 2.2.5 with ZMySQLDA 1.1.4 and MySQLDB 0.1.2 to a Zope 2.3.0b3 with new mysql code (MySQL-python-0.3.0, and ZMySQLDA 2.0.1). With these changes, I've found a couple problems, and was wondering if others where familiar with any of these problems, if some might be configuration issues. 1) All field values appear as strings in python This is the issue I hope is my own configuration mistake. Using the old product, field values where auto-converted to compatible python types; so int fields would be int's in python, not strings. This has broken many things in my product, and although I can patch all my queries to call int()/float()/etc on the results, there is code in MySQL-python to auto-convert field values. 2) select ... limit a[,b] This doesn't work anymore, and that just appears to be a bug in ZMySQLDA. I have a patch if anyone is interested. (Problem is that DB.query() adds a limit clause to the query, based on the max_rows argument. This makes windowing (using two arguments with limit) impossible.) Thanks, -Randy

Here's the description I > just submitted to the Collector: Yeah great, I'm bitten again. We had the same (upload) problem here and I didn't have time to think about it, but thanks to your debugging I know now for sure that I have quite a problem. Michel Pelletier and Chris McDonough explained it a bit in answers to this message: http://zope.nipltd.com/public/lists/zope-archive.nsf/ByKey/7C20E9F401FF8087 Chris even had a workaround: --- A solution is to add the following methods to the database adapter's DB class inside DB.py: def commit_sub(self, *arg, **kw): pass def abort_sub(self, *arg, **kw): pass --- The above is also used in the alpha version of DC's newest oracle adapter DCOracle2, As we use Loginmanager with postgres, I have know idea how to not invoke Z SQL methods when upload. Has anybody an idea if and under what circumstances the above snipped could do harm? cheers, oliver

sending variables/parameters via hyperlink

hello people, i am extremely new to zope. from the time i have sent this email i would have been 4 hours old as a zope newbie. i would just like to congratulate the people responsible for zope. like i said before, it is a content managers dream come true. anyway, i seem to have a thing i cannot do. we can pass variables/parameters via post in a webform. however, i would like to pass as variable/parameter via a hyperlink. in regular html i would be something like <a href="newpage.htm?variablename=value">Sent value to newpage.htm</a> i get this error: --------error start---------o Error response Error code 400. Message: Bad Request. -------error end------------o is this expected behavior? if so what should i do so emulate something like this method of paramter/variable passing using anchors? thanks. -------------------------------------- William Emmanuel S.

RE: [Zope] Problem : ZCatalog
by sean.upton＠uniontrib.com 26 Jan '01

Right, use a python method, with a regular expression, like: import regsub def stringchange(self): """ Accepts a string passed as self, modifies it using a regex substitution, and returns modified This example strips multiple spaces, puts in a single one """ result=regsub.gsub('[ \t][ \t]+', ' ', self) return result You could use regsub.sub to replace the first instance of a pattern in a string, or regsub.gsub to do all. Look in /lib/python1.5/regsub.py to see all the regular expression substitution functions avalable. The regex syntax is pretty vanilla; (i.e. chapter 1 of the book _Mastering Regular Expressions_ has enough detail to use regular expressions well enough in python). There is also a split function in regsub.py that might be of use here, using the '/' as the delimiter pattern; I think you would use it like this: mylist = regsub.split(self, '/') You could then write your function to get a particular item, like city, language, etc by obtaining the slices from mylist.

Well, my solution would be to create a python method that splits your url up into indexable words and then index this method in ZCatalog. One of cool features of the ZCatalog is that it can index objects methods.

LoginManager, can't get past login form
by Fred Yankowski 26 Jan '01

26 Jan '01

I've installed LoginManager exactly (AFAICT) according to <http://www.zope.org/Members/dlpierson/sqlLogin>, and when I try to access the protected folder I get the login form, but when I enter the username and password into that form and submit it, I just get the same form back again. I've tested the SQL Methods invidividually and they work fine. I'm at a loss as to how to test the other components: ZClass, DataSkin, etc. I've tried running Zope with -D and -M, but nothing in the few trace messages indicates any problem. The username I inserted into the SQL database does not match any Zope username in the (standard, top-level) acl_user folder for the site. Does that matter? I've spent several hours looking over the ZPatterns Wiki pages and the various LoginManager web pages, and I'm starting to understand the mechanism involved in LoginManager, but I don't understand it well enough to know where I could put in a breakpoint that would help me understand why login is not working. So, could someone suggest what I could try next to diagnose this problem? -- Fred Yankowski fred(a)OntoSys.com tel: +1.630.879.1312 Principal Consultant www.OntoSys.com fax: +1.630.879.1370 OntoSys, Inc 38W242 Deerpath Rd, Batavia, IL 60510, USA
