Problems installing Zope Perl
by Gianluca Pacchioni 21 Jun '01

21 Jun '01

Hi everybody, I'm trying to install Zope Perl on Windows following andym's How-To, but I have some problems. When I run this command: D:\Temp\pyperl-1.0.1\Python-Object>perl makefile.pl I obtain this output: Picking up pyton include files from "C:\Programmi\Zope\bin\include" Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good Note (probably harmless): No library found for '../perlpyd.lib' Writing Makefile for Python::Object It doesn't find perlpyd.lib, is it normal? And more, it's really harmless? Anyway, it makes the makefile, but when I run this command: D:\Temp\pyperl-1.0.1\Python-Object>nmake install this is the result: ... ... ... Creating library blib\arch\auto\Python\Object\Object.lib and object blib\arch \auto\Python\Object\Object.exp Object.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _newPerlPyObject_noinc Object.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _sv2pyo Object.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _get_thread_ctx Object.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _vtbl_free_pyo Object.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _pyo2sv Object.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _PerlPyObject_pyo Object.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _PerlPyObject_pyo_or_null Object.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol _newPerlPyObject_inc blib\arch\auto\Python\Object\Object.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 8 unresolved exte rnals NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'link' : return code '0x460' Stop. Any idea about the problem? This is my configuration: Windows 2000 Professional Zope 2.3.2 Python 1.5.2 (final) ActivePerl 5.6.1.626 Distutils 1.0.1 pyperl 1.0.1 zoperl 1.0.beta5 Thanks for every suggestion, Gianluca

Apache + ZServer: Excluding some URLS from a ProxyPass
by Peter Hernberg 21 Jun '01

21 Jun '01

I know this more of an Apache question than a Zope question, but I figured Zope folk were most likely know the answer Here's the situation: I'm moving our website to Zope, but there are some old CGI scripts we still need. Reading the howtos, it seem like the best way to this is with ProxyPass. What I'd like to is something like ProxyPass / http://www.oursite.com:9673/ ProxyPassReverse / http://www.oursite.com:9673/ But somehow I'd like http://www.oursite.com/survey.cgi to bypass this rule untouched. The best way I could think of to do this would be to something like DirectoryIndex index_html ProxyPass /index_html http://www.oursite.com:9673/ ProxyPassReverse /index_html http://www.oursite.com:9673/ And then forward the individual directories as well: ProxyPass /stuff http://www.oursite.com:9673/stuff ProxyPassReverse /stuff http://www.oursite.com:9673/stuff ProxyPass /morestuff http://www.oursite.com:9673/morestuff ProxyPassReverse /morestuff http://www.oursite.com:9673/morestuff Sadly, this doesn't work (requests for http://www.oursite.com/ return apache's listing of the / directory, although requests for http://www.oursite.com/index_html work fine (see http://bugs.apache.org/index.cgi/full/3596 for the only discussion I could find on the subject)). Is there some way to get Apache to transparently forward all requests except requests for those certain CGI scripts requests to the Zope website? Maybe some mod_rewrite rule? ===== Peter Hernberg SUNY Potsdam's most illegible bachelor "You must pass this message on in the next 72 hours or you will have bad luck.

I'm having enough trouble keeping up with the changes the way it is. I suspect that what is too slow is changes in the direction *you* want. As for me, I am very happy with the speed at which DC implements change. Especially the speed at which they come out with security fixes.

RE: [Zope] Namespace error in MIME/Sendmail
by Dunigan, Craig 21 Jun '01

21 Jun '01

I expected that, Michel. ;) Although I'd already tried it without success, your reply at least nudged me to poke around a bit more, and I discovered that it is the .read() that causes the difficulty. This: <dtml-boundary type=application/octet-stream disposition=attachment encode=base64><dtml-var expr="restrictedTraverse(SendDoc).read()"></dtml-mime> </dtml-sendmail> fails with an attribute error on the read(). I got the read() syntax from the Zope book http://www.zope.org/Members/michel/ZB/AdvDTML.dtml and an archived list message http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope/2000-August/116944.html. It appears to be incorrect for this case, though I'll be damned if I know why. For the record, REQUEST.resolve_url still failed with a namespace error when I removed the read(). You've convinced me, I'll use restrictedTraverse from now on! :-) > -----Original Message----- > From: Michel Pelletier [mailto:michel@digicool.com] > Sent: Wednesday, June 20, 2001 5:53 PM > To: Dunigan, Craig > Cc: 'Eric Balasbas'; 'zope(a)zope.org' > Subject: RE: [Zope] Namespace error in MIME/Sendmail > > > > Don't use REQUEST.resolve_url.

CMF Dogbowl: Presentation Notes, Slides, etc.
by Jon Edwards 20 Jun '01

20 Jun '01

Tres has set up a page on the CMF Dogbowl to collect together Presentation Notes, Slides, etc on Content Management, Zope and/or the CMF. While he's distracted by the CMF 1.1 release and his vacation plans, I've sneakily added links to three that I know of. Anyone know of any others that are available on the net? Cheers, Jon
