install of 2.4.2 on NT4 fails
by Jan De Ryck 28 Oct '01

28 Oct '01

I tried to install zope 2.4.2 on an NT4 box. The install fails immedialtely with an "internal error". The box is NT4, sp6a + security roll-up, NWClient 4.81 and Netshield 4.5. AMD K6-2/500MHz with 256 MB of memory. Any idea why it fails? ====================================================================== /Jan DE RYCK, Systems Engineer College of Business Administration, University of Hawaii at Manoa ph.

using a method as the img name
by Trevor Toenjes 28 Oct '01

28 Oct '01

I created a method/document called header.gif that will be called from a remote, non-zope server. just calling the URL http://zope/images/header.gif renders the Method and variable image correctly. However, including <img src="http://zope/images/header.gif"> in the remote HTML page does not. Why doesnt this just act like a Zope object and render the img? What is the solution? TIA, Trevor

RE: [Zope] advice to track graphics rendering in DTML or python(script)

However I do not find it. I considered that, but I do not control the formatting. Another system is rendering the HTML. It is being rendered to zope as http://zope/images/header.gif?Alkj9876. And I dont want to render the graphic unless it has an ID. I guess this is almost like a banner system. How do I change the browser's REQUEST for header.gif to redirect to another GIF?

Sequence-Item
by Ben Ocean 28 Oct '01

28 Oct '01

Hi; I have this code: <dtml-if expr="number_attendees==1"> Thank you, <dtml-var first_name>. Please tell us about the attendee...   <dtml-else> Thank you, <dtml-var first_name>. Please tell us about the attendees...   </dtml-if> <dtml-in expr="_.range(number_attendees)"> <dtml-if expr="sequence-item==0"> <dtml-var sequence-item>st Attendee: <dtml-elif expr="sequence-item==1"> <dtml-var sequence-item>nd Attendee: <dtml-elif expr="sequence-item==2"> <dtml-var sequence-item>rd Attendee: <dtml-else> <dtml-var sequence-item>th Attendee: </dtml-if> </dtml-in> I get an error that the compiler doesn't recognize the variable *sequence*. Apparently, I'm not properly communicating to Zope that I'm trying to call the variable *sequence-item* and that it should be iterating through the loop. How do I do this correctly? TIA, BenO

FW: Security question - precision
by Bocquillon Philippe 28 Oct '01

28 Oct '01

Hello again, Precisions to my e-mail here after: Zope refuses "add object" permission to any user having a role other than Manager, i.e. Zope refuses to add objects in containers whose classes are my proper classes (inheriting ObjectManager), even if I give all permissions to these other roles, at root level and acquiring them. When a role adds these objects in _standard_ Zope Folders, no problem, Zope permits it. What do I have forgotten to declare in my python classes ? Is it necessary to define security assertions on methods like manage_addObject() ...?

Does Anybody Know ANYTHING About Formulator?
by Ben Ocean 28 Oct '01

28 Oct '01

Hi; I have a REALLY simple question about Formulator for anyone whose ever used it. How do I include a Formulator form in a DTML Document? Is it not possible to include it like one would a DTML Method, or *must* it be called as would a DTML Document? TIA, BenO

Re: [Zope] How can I let ZSQL method know the variable i define.
by Eiffel 28 Oct '01

28 Oct '01

hi: i really crazy about this question, i simplify the question i rewrite the code and simplify it <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('pageurl', URL0)"> <dtml-in "test_for_page_count(pageurl=pageurl)"> <dtml-in "getPageViews(pageurl=pageurl)"> <center> This page has been viewed <dtml-var pagecount> time. </center> </dtml-in> </dtml-in> it disply nothing, when i hard code pageurl variable and rewrite it like this <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('pageurl', URL0)"> <dtml-in "test_for_page_count(pageurl='/')"> <dtml-in "getPageViews(pageurl='/' )"> <center> This page has been viewed <dtml-var pagecount> time. </center> </dtml-in> </dtml-in> well, this time it works, so it means that <dtml-in "test_for_page_count(pageurl=pageurl)"> could not forward parameter to ZSQL method. even I rewrite code like this, <dtml-in "test_for_page_count(_.None,_,pageurl=pageurl)"> still does not work. i was wondering that if zope's builtin database gadfly is fit for this small code.
