MP3 management via Zope ?
by andreas＠andreas-jung.com 06 Mar '01

06 Mar '01

Is there some kind of management system for an MP3 server available for handling about 60GB of MP3 ? The system should be able to handle playlists, sort all data by different criteria..... If there is none I should write one :-) Andreas

If you call it from somewhere else, the "PARENTS[0]" may be different and "SITE.DIR1.DIR2" no longer accessible... What problem do you see (exception or wrong result or whatever)? Dieter

You succeeded to assign an "instance method" to an attribute (or key) of a persistant object. Unfortunately, the ZODB (more precisely the underlying "pickle" machinery) can not store instance methods. Dieter

If the browser uses HTTP 1.1, then you may use the new HTTP 1.1 response code that allows you to specify unmistakenly that you want the redirection be handled as a GET request. HTTP/1.0 browsers, however, will not understand these response codes. I think, "REQUEST.environ['SERVER_PROTOCOL']" will tell you, what HTTP version is used. Dieter

Try: context.foo.absolute_url() or getattr(context,'foo').absolute_url() > _['foo'].absolute_url() > _.getitem('foo').absolute_url() Are you sure the namespace variable is bound? In many case, you will get an empty namespace. If your namespace is not empty, then the code above should work. Dieter

Squishdot Question (not Problem)
by complaw＠hal-pc.org 06 Mar '01

06 Mar '01

This is a squishdot question that may have an answer involving general technique (so that is why I'm using this forum). I am running three separate Squishdot sites (great program, really caught on in my law firm). The sites are for Intellectual Property, E-Commerce, and CyberLaw. Each site is separate because it caters to a different group of people, although there are some people viewing more than one site. While much of the content is dissimilar, there is some overlap. The question that I have is can you have one posting to a Squishdot site be posted to multiple sites? Thanks in advance, Ron

by Max M 06 Mar '01

06 Mar '01

I have a propblem with mailhost. I created one called "mailer". I have then made a simple form/reply pair to send an e-mail. When I use them from localhost it works nicely like:: http://localhost:8080/some_path/form http://localhost:8080/some_path/reply But when I use them like:: http://www.myurl.dk:8080/some_path/form http://www.myurl.dk:8080/some_path/reply I get an error:: Error Type: KeyError Error Value: mailer Anybody's got a clue as to why?

Hi, I am searching for an easy way to upgrade some thirty squishdot sites from version 0.3.2 to 0.7.3. The reason behind all this is that I want to migrate an existing site frome Zope 2.1.6. to Zope 2.2.2. I exported my site from 2.1.6 and imported it in 2.2.2. Then, I tried to be clever and copied all items in the root folder of a newly installed squisdot site (with version 0.7.3) to replace the content of an old 0.3.2-site (residing now in my new Zope install 2.2.2.). Well, it did not work out. Can anybody give me a clue how to go about this upgrade? I tried some idea's, but to no avail. Recataloging gives an AttributeError (_catalog) with the following traceback: File D:\Zope222\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 222, in publish_module File D:\Zope222\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 187, in publish File D:\Zope222\lib\python\Zope\__init__.py, line 221, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: Traversable) File D:\Zope222\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 171, in publish File D:\Zope222\lib\python\ZPublisher\mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: recatalogPostings) File D:\Zope222\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 112, in call_object (Object: recatalogPostings) File D:\Zope222\lib\python\Products\Squishdot\Squishdot.py, line 377, in recatalogPostings (Object: Traversable) AttributeError: (see above) Update indexing did not work out eather.
