Multiple sites, shared content
by Howard Hansen 26 Nov '01

26 Nov '01

I'm setting up a series of sites for different states. Some content is shared among the different states, other content will exist only in some states, other content will exist for all states. Ideally, I'd like to have a single folder for all shared content, which would allow us to eliminate dual maintenance. Each state will have its own domain and I'd like the shared content to appear to be local, and have the option of replacing the shared content with customized content for a state that has it. Finally, it would be very nice to have search catalogs treat shared data as local. I remember seeing code for inserting a location into the acquisition path. Would that do the trick? Would it still work if I had multiple levels in a folder structure? Alternatively, can I create something like a symbolic link in Zope? Thanks for any suggestions or comments!

Hi; Does anyone know how to get this to work? This is my second request for help. Please. I followed the instructions to install ZMySQLDA but ran into problems. First up, it appears that I do have the necessary python modules: [root@hermes i386]# rpm -qa|grep MySQL MySQL-client-3.23.42-1 MySQL-3.23.42-1 MySQL-devel-3.23.42-1 ...and make -f Makefile.pre.in boot goes smoothly, but when I try make I get this: [root@hermes src]# make gcc -fPIC -g -O2 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -I/usr/include/python2.1 -I/usr/include/python2.1 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I/usr/local/mysql/include -I/usr/include/mysql -c ././MySQLmodule.c -o ./MySQLmodule.o ././MySQLmodule.c:199: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c: In function `clear_channel': ././MySQLmodule.c:204: warning: suggest parentheses around assignment used as truth value ././MySQLmodule.c: At top level: ././MySQLmodule.c:217: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:229: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c: In function `pythonify_row': ././MySQLmodule.c:238: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type ././MySQLmodule.c: At top level: ././MySQLmodule.c:339: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c: In function `pythonify_res': ././MySQLmodule.c:344: warning: `thisrow' might be used uninitialized in this function ././MySQLmodule.c: At top level: ././MySQLmodule.c:373: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c: In function `pythonify_res_fields': ././MySQLmodule.c:384: invalid lvalue in unary `&' ././MySQLmodule.c:378: warning: `tf' might be used uninitialized in this function ././MySQLmodule.c: At top level: ././MySQLmodule.c:483: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:502: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:530: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:562: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:580: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:607: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:634: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:662: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:688: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:722: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:734: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:753: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:767: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:779: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:796: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c: In function `DBH_clientinfo': ././MySQLmodule.c:799: warning: unused variable `info' ././MySQLmodule.c: At top level: ././MySQLmodule.c:815: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:832: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:849: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:866: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:885: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:902: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:920: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:973: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:986: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:994: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:1032: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:1040: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:1070: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:1085: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:1102: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c: In function `STH_fetchdict': ././MySQLmodule.c:1125: invalid lvalue in unary `&' ././MySQLmodule.c:1147: invalid lvalue in unary `&' ././MySQLmodule.c:1111: warning: `tf' might be used uninitialized in this function ././MySQLmodule.c: At top level: ././MySQLmodule.c:1176: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:1192: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:1201: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:1210: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:1225: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:1234: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:1257: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:1265: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype ././MySQLmodule.c:1296: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype make: *** [MySQLmodule.o] Error 1 What are all these warnings and what have I done wrong?

Global Variable
by Pascal Samuzeau 26 Nov '01

Hi, I've that code : <dtml-let TEST="'dir'"> <dtml-in "portal_catalog.searchResults(Type='Cas clinique', review_state='published', sort_on='Date', sort_order='reverse')" size=1 end=1> <dtml-var id> </dtml-in> </dtml-in> <script type="text/javascript"> var image = 0; var delai = 2000; var icone = new Array (); var lelien = ''; var max = <dtml-var "compte_images(repertoire='/uv/web/cnr/cas/&TEST;',prefixe='Ima-') - 1">; I need to get the value returned by the <dtml-var id> in the function called "compte_images" and in some others later in the code. My question : I need something like a global variable, that I may use here and there. But, infortunately, I don't know how to write it. Anyone knows it ?

Problems viewing pdf's
by Orietta Barbari 26 Nov '01

26 Nov '01

Hi does anybody know if there are any problems with viewing pdfs on zope ? >From the management interface, if I add/upload a file from my local machine which is a .pdf, and give it the id of 'mypdf', the file uploads perfectly. The problem occurs when I come put a link in my site which calls the pdf. (ie. <a href="mypdf" target="_blank">View mypdf</a>) The problem is, when I select the link to view the pdf document in a browser - sometimes it gets displayed and sometimes it doesn't. If I can't view my pdf, I've found that going back to the management interface and checking that the pdf is viewable there (clicking on the 'view' tab on the file) then makes it viewable in the browser too - however this is not a universal solution. I've checked that the Content Type property of mypdf = application/pdf, and have followed the instructions in the following posting : http://zope.nipltd.com/public/lists/zope-archive.nsf/47ba74c812dbc5dd802 5687f0024bb5f/3e35f3fd59a9dd2a8025691a005c40eb?OpenDocument but I'm afraid I'm still having no joy. I'm sure I'm missing something really obvious, could anyone point me in the right direction ? Any help would be much appreciated.

WebDAV locking problem, some more enlightment
by Joachim Schmitz 26 Nov '01

26 Nov '01

Hi, I installed the mod_dav in my local apache, to try if it shows the same symtoms, and found some interesting things. 1. Word opens documents not writeprotected on the apache DAV-store, even if they are not writable !!! 2. By accident I had the executable flag set on a htm-file, this file is opened writeprotected !!! This is reproduceble, if you unset the x-flag it is opened in readwrite mode. I took a log of both situations: the only difference I could find was in the response to the GET /dav/testdocweb.htm HTTP/1.1 Accept-Language: de, en-us;q=0.2 If-None-Match: "1cb27-8ce-3bf6bf01" Translate: f User-Agent: Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider DAV Host: 10.2.1.1 Connection: Keep-Alive wich in the readwrite case is: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Sat, 17 Nov 2001 19:50:19 GMT Server: Apache/1.3.19 (Unix) (SuSE/Linux) mod_python/2.7.2 Python/2.0 DAV/1.0.2 Last-Modified: Sat, 17 Nov 2001 19:50:08 GMT ETag: "1cb25-8fb-3bf6bf70" Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Length: 2299 Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=99 Connection: Keep-Alive Content-Type: text/html <html xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" .... rest of document and in the writeprotected case HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Sat, 17 Nov 2001 19:28:14 GMT Server: Apache/1.3.19 (Unix) (SuSE/Linux) mod_python/2.7.2 Python/2.0 DAV/1.0.2 Keep-Alive: timeout=15, max=99 Connection: Keep-Alive Transfer-Encoding: chunked Content-Type: text/html 8fb <html xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" .... rest of document. in this case the document is fetched a second time, after unlocking. which is also the case, when fetching a htm-file from Zope-Dav storage here is the get for a doc-file: GET /test/testdoc11111111.doc HTTP/1.1 Accept-Language: de, en-us;q=0.2 If-None-Match: ts06033018.5 Translate: f User-Agent: Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider DAV Host: a.b.de:9800 Connection: Keep-Alive Authorization: Basic xxxxxxxx= and here the response: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Server: Zope/(Zope 2.4.3 (binary release, python 2.1, linux2-x86), python 2.1.0, linux2) ZServer/1.1b$ Date: Sat, 17 Nov 2001 21:38:41 GMT Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Type: application/msword Content-Length: 19456 Last-Modified: Sat, 17 Nov 2001 21:36:58 GMT it follows the binary doc-file here is the get for an htm-file: GET /test/testweb1.htm HTTP/1.1 Accept-Language: de, en-us;q=0.2 Translate: f User-Agent: Microsoft Data Access Internet Publishing Provider DAV Host: a.b.de:9800 Connection: Keep-Alive Authorization: Basic xxxxxxxxxx= and the response: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Server: Zope/(Zope 2.4.3 (binary release, python 2.1, linux2-x86), python 2.1.0, linux2) ZServer/1.1b$ Date: Sat, 17 Nov 2001 21:38:12 GMT Content-Type: text/html Content-Length: 2703 The only thing which is not there in the writeprotected cases in the response is the "ETag:" and the "Accept-Ranges: bytes", perhaps that tells something to the wizards of the HTTP-protocol ;-) Mit freundlichen Grüßen Joachim Schmitz AixtraWare, Ing.

Re: Login forms and selective dtml display
by Juan Garcia Garcia 26 Nov '01

Hi, i have done this a few weeks ago and it isn't so easy. You must use cookie based authentication (instead of basic authentication); at least there are some products that do it for you (Generic User Folder "GUF", LoginManager, ...) I use the GUF product with a database in Postgres, but i have read a lot of documentation before i made it work fine. Bye
