bottleneck?
by Tom Deprez 16 Mar '01

16 Mar '01

Hi, I need to build a intranet site in which we'll store all references (like author, date, title, ...) to written articles, thesisses, publications, books, .... from our department. The problem is that all these different mediums contain much the same information except for 3-4 fields.I could put all this information inside an sql database. However, it might be interesting to also actually store for instance the whole article... Then I think I better store everything inside Zope. But, I'm wondering if Zope can handle much data in a same folder. For instance, I would like to store all publications inside a folder named publication. But this would lead to a lot of publication objects in one folder... Can Zope handle this? Or are there better methods to achieve this (which I can wonder, since Zope was first build for newspapers which want to show there contents on-line). How do you do such a thing? Thanks in advance, Tom.

There is normally a startup delay of 30sec to 2 minutes depending on the computer while the system starts. Once the server is ready, it will display the port it is running on in the DOS box.

Re: uploading file with python script (problem with it)
by Wang Haifeng 15 Mar '01

Hi, Hans de Wit, I think there is something wrong with your form. To upload file, the form should specify "enctype" attr to "multipart/form-data". Like this: <form action="addFile" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">...

LocalFS manage_overwrite Permissions Question
by Gary Perez 15 Mar '01

15 Mar '01

Hi, all. Using LocalFS 0.9.6 on Zope 2.2.2/Python 1.5.2 under Linux 2.4.1 Here's the scenario... Set up a folder "UserAccess", set up user defined role "rmsuser". Inside UserAccess, set up a LocalFS object "LFS" w/ proper base path. Inside UserAccess, added "acl_users" folder, added user "RMS_User", assigned role "rmsuser". Folder "UserAccess" permissions set to: Acquire = none Anonymous = none Manager = all Owner = none rmsuser = access contents information, delete local files, manage local files, overwrite local files, upload local files, view LocalFS Object permissions set to: same as above. There's an "index_html" DTML Method in "UserAccess" which has the upload form, but permissions are set to aquire = all checked, and the <input type="hidden" name="action" value="../index_html"> is included in the FORM. (Funny aside: found out 'action' was supported in the form only AFTER changing LocalFS.py... what a dolt! ;) Here's the problem... 1) When logged into Zope as the user with "Manager" role, I can upload & overwrite, no problem. 2) When logged into Zope as RMS_User with "rmsuser" role (from a totally different machine, so no problems w/ REQUEST[AUTHENTICATED_USER]), I can upload, but not overwrite. 3) Still "rmsuser" role: If I go back and change permissions on "UserAccess" and "LFS" so "rmsuser" role has all checked (identical permissions to "Manager" role), uploads OK, but still no overwrite. 4) Still "rmsuser" role: However, if I go in "UserAccess" and add local role of "rmsuser ==> Manager", upload & overwrite works. This is bad, though, because I don't want "rmsuser" to be able to access the Zope management screens. I've checked just about everywhere for that one little nugget of LocalFS/Zope truth, but it still eludes me. Is there something that I'm overlooking??

Selective packing?
by Matt Liggett 15 Mar '01

15 Mar '01

Hello, I'm new to Zope, but I'd like to use it as a basic revision-controlled, multi-user document management system. However, there are certain documents for which I want to keep revision histories forever, whereas all other objects I want to be able to pack the database and have old revisions removed. Is there any way to accomplish this? Thanks in advance, -- Matt Liggett <mml(a)pobox.com>

Python console

15 Mar '01

Hello I have been reading some times that it is possible to start up the Pyhton interpreter and dialog with Zope while it is running. However, I have no clue how to do it, nor I found anything around, nor I do not know what I can ask it. Would somebody be so kind to give me some pointers? Thanks and regards Stefano Vedovelli

I do this all the time. Looking at your traceback, I think your custom_zodb.py file isn't quite right, and you aren't really running with a ZEO.ClientStorage, but actually using a ZODB.FileStorage directly. -Randy > -----Original Message----- > From: Dan L.
