I used my "DocFinder" product to quickly determine that "manage_renameObjects" is protected by "View management screens". An alternative would have been to look at the sources .... Dieter

Btw, ... its legal :-))) Apparently, your server wants to get a "POST" request. You will not get "POST" requests with simple "<a href...>" elements. These elements generate "GET" requests only. You may succeed with JavaScript, but I am not familiar enough to tell this for sure. Dieter

Calling dtml method from PythonScript, _.None, _ ?
by Brad Clements 02 May '01

02 May '01

I'm trying to eliminate query strings on my DHTML methods, to convert http://myhost.com/Products?productid=xyz into http://myhost.com/ProcessPath/xyz/ProductInfo.htm I've created a Python Script (2.3.2) that looks like this: --- target = traverse_subpath[-1] if target == 'ProductInfo.htm': container.Products(context,productid=traverse_subpath[0]) --- Also other variations of the function call, none work. basically I'm getting a KeyError in <standard_html_header> (called from Products) on 'bgcolor' where standard_html_header has <dtml-unless bgcolor> ... </dtml-unless> This code works when not passing through a Python Script call. What is the correct way to emulate a <dtml-var> call from a Python Script? Any idea why the dtml-unless fails when called indirectly through a python script? --- I know about the PathHandler product, but that doesn't quite fit my needs, my Python Script will be more complicated once I get this working.

Re: [Zope] NETSCAPE WANTS TO SAVE MY LINK

What should happen with content can be configured. The configuration specifies how the various MIME types should be handled: shown internally, saved to disk, viewed through an external program. Of course, the default configuration of IE and Netscape need not be identical (that's what you see, apparently). Even Netscapes on different platforms have different configurations. You may want to look at your configuration. In my Linux Netscape 4.7 it is in "Edit Preferences -> Navigator -> Applications". Dieter

Image Content

Hi - I have acouple questions regarding a photo content management system I am building as a tutorial to learn various aspects of Zope. So... I need some pointing in the right direction on the following... What is the most appropriate way to say add (5) containers of varying numbers of images without using the Zope management interface to manually add each one? I guess it might be possible to write a tool that iterates through a file directory and add an image element into a zope folder... or are there provisions already for this sorta thing? Also, if you want to give someone an easy interface to use to have access to adding/deleting photos in this scenario - would you have to build it? or is there something within Zope that allows a non-Zope'er to be able to access a form to do this maintenace? Any help or some pointing to what how-tos I should read would be very helpful. Thanks in advance.

Re: [Zope] something like getpath in ZCatalog for methods

Marcus Schopen writes: > is it possible to get the absolut position/url of a method (e.g. method_X) that > is located somewhere in one of the above parents folders? There are "absolute_url" and "getPhysicalPath". If you use "absolute_url" you may (or may not!) want to use "this()" to get rid of unwanted acquisition context. Something like: <dtml-var "method.this().absolute_url(1)"> Dieter

Re: [Zope] Zope IOError messages (FOUND TEST CASE)

You supposed that maybe stderr disappears somehow, causing my > IOErrors... Would closing my shell not make stderr disappear? Closing the shell will close "stderr" unless you have taken precaution. The easiest way is to use "nohup" to start your process. "nohup" will redirect "stdin" (to "/dev/null") and "stdout/stderr" to "nohup.out" (unless a different destination is specified) and make the process immune against "SIGHUP" signals (usually send when the control terminal is withdrawn). > If so, maybe this should be considered a bug in the default setup of the > start script? The start script should start a fully functional Zope, even if > the shell il later closed. In my opinion, at least. :-) I do not think so. You have to choose: either output to terminal (the default with the "-d" (debug) option and without "STUPID_LOG_FILE") and get problems when the OS (not Zope) makes the terminal unavailable. or has logging infos in a file (without "-d" or with "STUPID_LOG_FILE"). However, this choice may need to be stressed stronger in the documentation. Dieter

upgrading an RPM install of Zope.
by Echlin, Michael 02 May '01

02 May '01

Hi, We have a few Zope servers, one of which was installed using the rpm method. The rpm install goes to different directories then the manual install as per the web page (using the rpm install some of the software is installed in the /usr/share/zope and the rest is in /var/zope.) The upgrade (there is no rpm upgrade yet) from 2.3.X to 2.3.2 has directories that do not appear in any of the directory structures created in the rpm install (inst is one directory that does not appear.) The 2.3.X to 2.3.2 upgrade wants to install to a common directory structure not a split-up structure like the rpm install. I am going to back up everything and try to copy the right pieces to the right place but who knows what will happen. Any advice before I try this?

Service NT INSTANCE_HOME - Second shot

However, this solution don't seem effective with the Zope NT service : If you create a INSTANCE_HOME with var, Extensions, import, Products, access entities, and you declare INSTANCE_HOME in start.bat, Zope find correctly your INSTANCE_HOME when you manually run start.bat. But if you start Zope with a service it does not work even if you change the string INSTANCE_HOME in the NT registry ? Is there a sweet solution to affect an another INSTANCE_HOME and start zope with a service ? FR
