Hi I'm new to Zope and is wondering about open and closed product icons. I have a site from where I have exported a product from and a other site where I have imported the product. In the export site the product icon is opened, and in the import site it is closed. Why?

permissions broken?
by Andy Pahne 09 Nov '01

09 Nov '01

Today I tried on my Zope Zope 2.3.2 (source release, python 1.5.2, linux2) what I did a hundred times succesfully before: 1. created a folder "production" 2. set not to acquire the "View" permission for this folder 3. created a role "developer" 4. created a user "dev" with role developer 5. changed security settings so that developers can "View" 6. created two dtml-methods "standard_html_header" and "standad_html_footer" inside the new folder 7. logged in as dev and got the error message: Unauthorized You are not authorized to access standard_html_header Strange enough, this only occurs with standard_html_header and standard_html_footer. I also created a dtml-method called index_html and could see it. andy pahne ap(a)big1.de

Zope, Linux and large files support
by Thierry FLORAC 09 Nov '01

09 Nov '01

Hi... I know my problem is not really a Zope problem, but I think many Zope users may have encountered it... I have to bypass Python's 2GB file size limit on a Debian "Potato" GNU/Linux system, upgraded with security updates, Linux 2.4.10 kernel and associated packages, but is still using glibc-2.1.3. When I try to recompile python from sources, "configure" says that "large file support" can't be enabled... Can anybody tell me what is missing, or what have to be updated, to enable this support ?? Thank you for any help... Thierry -- Les LOGICIELS LIBRES ?? Y'a moins bien, mais c'est plus cher !! http://gpc.sourceforge.net

how much does changing a property add to data.fs??
by Robert Rottermann 09 Nov '01

09 Nov '01

Good morning friends, I was just wondering how changing attributes of an object does change the data.fs size. Is it only the changed attribute that is added to the end of data.fs or is the whole object copied??? I would assume the first. Is that so? Robert

Hello People, Is there a way to add a document to Zope through its embedded ftp server and have it be something else other than a plain DTML Document ? Something like a magic first line to identify the type of Product you are adding. Thanks much, Zac

Quick Security Question (Anonymous "Add Documents, Images, and Files")
by Adam Warner 09 Nov '01

09 Nov '01

Hi all, I have a python script that does a manage_addFile (it generates a cached version of a converted file the first time the page is viewed). To allow anon users to access the page itself I've had to allow anon "Add Documents, Images, and Files" in the root folder security. I've disabled it again while I await confirmation. These are the only options available to me in the python script's security settings: Access contents information Change Python Scripts Change bindings Change cache settings Change permissions Change proxy roles Delete objects Manage WebDAV Locks Manage properties Take ownership Undo changes View View History View management screens WebDAV Lock items WebDAV Unlock items WebDAV access My question is: Does enabling website wide anonymous "Add Documents, Images, and Files" mean users will be able to upload files, etc. indiscriminately? Or does it just mean anon user-initiated scripts and forms that generate files will work? Thanks, Adam

Aquire permission settings
by Jonny Karlsson (Rivermen) 09 Nov '01

09 Nov '01

Hi I'm new to Zope and have a problem with permissions on a zope site. If I unchecks the Aquire permission settings (APS) for one of the Instances and checks the permission to Owner, none of the instances works. Expample: if I changes the APS for instance_1, loggs in with Owner2 and accesses instance_2 it does not work. The function with the permission is to let the owner view and run his instance, but none of the other instances. The site structure: Root Folder -Products --ProductName ---ClassName -Site (Security: APS on all) --SubFolder (Security: APS on a few, manager on the rest, none on owner, User has Access contents information, Change Configuration, View) ---Instances_1_of_ClassName Owner1 (Security: APS on all, else it does not work) ---Instances_2_of_ClassName Owner2 (Security: APS on all, else it does not work) ---Instances_3_of_ClassName Owner3 (Security: APS on all, else it does not work) ---Instances_4_of_ClassName Owner4 (Security: APS on all, else it does not work) ---Instances_5_of_ClassName Owner5 (Security: APS on all, else it does not work)
