PoPy Installation. Where's the BEEF?
by Eric Walstad 11 Jan '01

11 Jan '01

Hello all, After installing the ZPoPyDA product, restarting Zope and browsing to the Products interface, I see: ZPoPyDA Import Traceback Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/local/Zope/lib/python/OFS/Application.py", line 397, in import_products product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly) File "/usr/local/zope/lib/python/Products/ZPoPyDA/__init__.py", line 32, in ? File "/usr/local/zope/lib/python/Products/ZPoPyDA/DA.py", line 35, in ? File "/usr/local/zope/lib/python/Products/ZPoPyDA/PoPy_db.py", line 35, in ? The PoPy module is not installed So, it looks like I need to install PoPy. I went to www.mixadlive.com (PoPy PeOpLe :) and couldn't find it there (I don't speak Italian, so it may be right under my nose). I've searched the Zope archives and didn't see any leads there. Can anyone give me a pointer? Thanks, Eric.

SiteAccess and 2.3.0a2
by Timothy Wilson 11 Jan '01

11 Jan '01

Hi everyone, I have Evan's excellent SiteAccess product installed on my 2.3.0a1 Zope as an add-on. Now that SiteAccess is part of the Zope core, how should I handle the upgrade. Can I simply recompile? -Tim -- Tim Wilson | Visit Sibley online: | Check out: Henry Sibley HS | http://www.isd197.k12.mn.us/ | http://www.zope.org/ W.

I had to replace "_" by "_vars", as "_" gave me a "NameError: _" (do not know why), but otherwise, it worked. I got your error, too, when I tried 'branches_expr="y"', but that is expected, because in this case, the expression evaluates to a DTML method and does not have a "__getitem__" as required by "tree".

Re: [Zope] permissions problem upgrading to 2.3.0a1 from 2.1.6

Jerome Alet writes: > ... permission problem upgrading ZClasses from 2.1.6 to 2.3a1 ... Are your ZClasses pure Zope ZClasses or do they contain Python based products? There was a big shift in security policy during Zope 2.1.x to Zope 2.2.x. Many Python based products need to be changed in order to be compatible with the new security policy. This is excellently explained in a paper from Brian: "... Upgrading to Zope 2.2 ..." I do not expect, that the behavious will be different, if you upgrade to 2.2.4. Dieter

Re: [Zope] Proximity searches w/ ZCatalog

Zope supports some proximity searches, but it provides far less control than you ask for. The proximity operator is "...". It is essentially an "and" with a score depending on the distance. You will not get more control. Dieter

It is almost as you described: the proximity operator is "..." you can not control the distance "..." is effectively an "and" with a high score when the terms are near together and a lower score for higher distances term in "..." are effectively combined with "...", thus: '"bear wine champagner"' is equivalent to 'bear ... wine ... champagner' ZCatalog would interpret "FIDELITY ... MUTUAL FUNDS" as "(FIDELITY ... MUTUAL) or FUNDS" The nearest result what "sean" asked for, would probably be 'FIDELITY ... "MUTUAL FUNDS"', which is equivalent to 'FIDELITY ... (MUTUAL ... FUNDS)'. I have not too much confidence in ZCatalog (yet ; this may change now that Chris P is responsible for it). I doubt, it will implement "A ... B ... C" sensefully. It is a big question, all together, whether a binary operator is the correct choice for proximity. Dieter

Adding many users
by Ragnar Beer 10 Jan '01

10 Jan '01

Howdy Zopistas and happy new year! I need to add about 150 users to an acl_users folder and I wouldn't like to do it manually since the data already exists in a python list. What would be an elegant way to add them all with a python script? Ragnar
