Trouble migrating to a PhotoFolder setup
by Kirk Strauser 26 Oct '01

26 Oct '01

I'm a (very) new Zope admin, and after seeing the featureset of Ron Bickers' Photo Product, I'm eager to start using it to automagically thumbnail photo uploads. I have Photo installed and working on my FreeBSD 4.4 / Zope 2.4.1 servers, and I can add images to my heart's content through the management interface, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to use a DTML call to insert an uploaded image as a Photo object into a PhotoFolder. I have a variable named 'imagename' that stores the value of the id I'd like the Photo to have. Another variable, 'imagefile', is the object returned for an <input type="file" ...> form element. I had been using: <dtml-call expr="manage_addImage(id=imagename, file=imagefile, title=imagename)"> to create an Image object previously. I've tried Google, archives of this mailing list, and elsewhere, but I just can't seem to find the equivalent <dtml-call> tag to add a Photo. TIA for any assistance. I'm really looking forward to using this setup! -- Kirk Strauser

webdav + sitecopy + SiteRoot
by Mark Logan 26 Oct '01

26 Oct '01

I have a site that I would like to synchronize using sitecopy and webdav. I've been following the instructions found at (long url): http://zope.nipltd.com/public/lists/zope-archive.nsf/ 47ba74c812dbc5dd8025687f0024bb5f/d1daeaa7052309dc80256ac7007abac9? OpenDocument&Highlight=0,sitecopy This is simple enough, but I have a siteroot, and that is throwing everything off. Here is my .sitecopyrc: site ccs-beta server ******* port 3081 protocol webdav username ****** password ****** remote /ccs local /home/mlogan/proj/web/zope/ccs exclude acl_users exclude *[Cc]atalog exclude SiteRoot When I do a sitecopy --fetch, it finds absolutely nothing. Interestingly, if I set the remote directory to /, it works fine, but downloads the whole zope database (including controlpanel, etc). If I start zope with SUPPRESS_SITEROOT=1, and use the same config above, it downloads only the directory that I want. Nothing I have tried can get around the siteroot, and I don't even understand exactly what problem the siteroot is causing. Is there a way to have zope suppress the siteroot on the webdav port only? that would be ideal. Any insight would be really helpful. Thanks, Mark Logan mlogan(a)ccs.neu.edu

RE: [Zope] DTML 'objectValues()' problem
by Paul Zwarts 26 Oct '01

26 Oct '01

The trick someone told me on this list when I asked was that when you are in the folder you want to acquire (in the management interface) hold the mouse over the icon next to the object you want. The active onMouseOver in the management interface then reveals the object type. Then in dtml use that string in quotes in your objectValues.

It returns nothing (in a directory full of files). Thanks for your help though.

Re: [Zope] adding acl_users properties
by dudek＠cim.mcgill.ca 26 Oct '01

26 Oct '01

Far as I know, the best way to expand on the user information that is stored is to move to a more powerful user-management product. I found GenericUserFolder easy to use, configure and expand, and it's simeple and (hence) really stable. It has been supplanted by more powerful products like CMF and SQL things, but when I looked a few weeks/months ago all the alternative were either still development releases or much harder to get going.
