Job Board Howto
by The Doctor What 21 May '01

21 May '01

Hi! I like your example of how to build a job board. I'm using some of the info from it to do a schedule system, but without ZClasses (I use a DTML Document as the schedule item). I do have one thing that your example board doesn't have: a delete job. This would, in a real system, require permissions around it, but it would be educational. I have been trying things like this (in a python script here and dtml methods (not shown)): context.events.manage_delObject(id) but I just get an AttributeError. So, I thought this would be useful for your HOWTO (and for me to know, eh?) :-) -- Thank goodness modern convenience is a thing of the remote future. -- Pogo, by Walt Kelly The Doctor What: Guru to the Gods http://docwhat.gerf.org/ docwhat(a)gerf.org KF6VNC

This is something that I am looking into... If anyone knows how to delete objects with a call like this, please post it. :) It's been driving me a little crazy. :) Jason The Doctor What <docwhat(a)gerf.org> wrote: > Hi! > > I like your example of how to build a job board.

UserDB troubles
by Kevin L 21 May '01

21 May '01

Hi, can anyone help me out with UserDB? I'm trying to do something similar to zope.org, in that users have full access to most of the site, but after they log in they will see a few additional links. I have UserDB installed and I edited the sqlListUsers query and it does show the 500 users from my MySQL database. But how do I create a login page like zope.org? any help is greatly appreciated! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

You say PoPy plans on supporting 7.1 this month ?!?! Oops. I've been using it in straight Python to pack down 700MB of parsed logfiles on my HP/UX box into a 7.1RC2 postgreSQL server and 7.1 is compiling as I write :( Troy

Problems with xml-rpc
by Juan Carlos Coruña 21 May '01

21 May '01

Hi all, The last problem I was having with xmlrpc and Zope was "Growing Refcounts" (you can review it in this mailing list). I resolved the problem applying the patch to xmlrpclib.py referenced in http://www.pythonware.com/products/xmlrpc/bug-xmlrpc1.htm. ¿Why, you, people of DC do not apply this patch? But now there seems to appear another problem related to xml-rpc. I'm using a python xmlrpc client to talk to a Zope server. The problem appears if I pass a string argument containing the symbol "&". Example > s = xmlrpclib.Server('http://localhost/RPC') > s.anymethod('string & parameter') The zope server responds: xmlrpclib.Fault: <Fault -2: 'Unexpected Zope error value: <unknown>:1:0: not well-formed\012\012\012'> I am using Zope-2.3.2.

Postgres adapters

Hi all, Can anyone comment on past experiences with various postgres adapters? I am using the latest PoPy (201) and have just recently noticed psychopg. Is it better, faster, more reliable or any of the above? Paz

ZSQL Methods in Z Classes
by Shai Berger 21 May '01

21 May '01

Hi Guys, I wanted to use ZSQL Methods in Z Classes to share code between different parts of a large project. The different parts need to use similar, but separate, database namespaces, but I still wanted to use the same methods. Now, ZSQL Methods treat their Database connection ID, for some reason, on a par with their source -- it is not a parameter. You are not supposed to run one ZSQL Method on two connections. (One can try to acquire, restricting yourself to the same ID name in different folders; I think this will not work, and the ZSQL methods will get to their original DB connection first). I tried to bypass this limitation, by defining a forwarding database adapter. The idea was that this adapter's connection string would point to a resource (property or method) which will specify the actual connection. The idea was that in a ZClass, I could have this be a pythonscript which will look into an instance property sheet, thereby allowing different instances to use different connections. This seemed to work very nicely at first: After the ZClass with the forwarding adapter and pythonscript was installed into a folder, all its methods worked like magic. I was very happy. Then we restarted Zope, and ever since, it seems like the Adapter is being called by the ZSQL Methods without any acquisiotion context. Could you help show me what went wrong? BTW: I intended to make the forwarding DA a product, and to ship with it a base ZClass for ZSQL methods-using ZClasses, which I wanted to call "ZSQL Class". But even before the current problems, I was halted by the fact that if you define a database connection in a ZClass, ZSQL Methods in derived classes cannot use it. In fact, even ZSQL Methods in the same class as the adapter act funny -- you can set it as their connection, but in the source they say "connection not found", and you can't test them in the class context (even when they don't rely on instance resources). Hope this is informative enough, and that others have thought of these problems, Shai.

verbatim code in ZWikiPage
by John Hunter 21 May '01

21 May '01

I would like to include some verbatim code in my zwiki. I have used the :: syntax to indicate verbatim example code, as in You will need some variant of the following in .emacs:: ;;the following is wherever you put emacs-wiki.el (setq load-path (cons (expand-file-name "~/emacs/wiki") load-path)) ;;these vars must be defined before the emacs-wiki code is loaded (defvar emacs-wiki-extended-link-regexp "\\[\\[\$[^] \t\n]+\$\\]\$\\[\\([^]\n]+\$\\]\\)?\\]" "Regexp used to match [[extended][links]].") The verbatim tag is being recognized (ie the newlines are honored and the typewriter like font is used, but a lot of the syntax is lost. For example, the above is rendered: ;;the following is wherever you put emacs-wiki.el (setq load-path (cons (expand-file-name "~/emacs/wiki") load-path)) ;;these vars must be defined before the emacs-wiki code is loaded (defvar emacs-wiki-extended-link-regexp "\\\\[\$[^? \t\n]+\$\\]\$\\\\([^?\n]+\$\\]\\)?\\]" "Regexp used to match [extended?links?].") Is this a correctable(ed) problem with zwiki mode? Or am I doing something wrong? Thanks, John Hunter

Re: [Zope] Q: Verifying the poll numbers
by BZ 21 May '01

21 May '01

First of all... documentation was not on the poll... :) Ok. Now for the real question. What would I pay for a authoring tool? Well, assuming it had the following: - No OS Dependancy (runs on anything from Windows 95 -> OS X) - Small application size - A good set of features (Color coding) As an individual I would pay up to $75.
