How to copy a zope site
by Alejandro Fernandez 12 Jun '01

12 Jun '01

Hi I'm working on a project which until now was kept at a server at my university. I'm taking it home, so I can work on it there. Does anyone know what files I should copy in order to maintain the installation? I'm thinking everything in /var/ off my zope installation. Is this correct? Please answer directly, as I'm not on this list. Thanks! Alejandro -- Alejandro Fernandez Bscp 5 Caledonian University 0790 541 8809 - ale(a)nin.cx

Re: [Zope] dtml-if question

I am not sure if I understand your question. But let's assume that you have an image called 'school.jpg' then you can write: <img src="<dtml-var subject>".jpg> Or an other solution could be: - Have a folder with images and iterate over this folder and try to find an image with id 'school'. - If you cannot find, take a default image Best regards Arno On Tue, 12 Jun 2001, you wrote: > Hi all, > > I have a question about The dtml-if. > > I would like to call an image depending on the url I am at. > > Lets say Somsone searches for an article on school I have the folowing URL: > > http://codenamefuture.hurrah.com/nieuws/zoek?SearchableText=&Subject%3Atoken > s=school > > If I wnated to write a dtml-method telling it should load the school image > in stead of the standard image how would I call that image? > > Hope someone can help me on this. > > James > > _______________________________________________ > Zope maillist - Zope(a)zope.org > http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope > ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** > (Related lists - > http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce > http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ) -------------------------------------------------------

Python products - Versions in Zope
by Max M 12 Jun '01

12 Jun '01

How do you guys manage versions in Python products on running sites? Do you have several versions of products running at the same time, or do you build in some kind of upgrade path that upgrades instanciated objects? Just looking for clues. regards Max M Max M. W.

If you havn't made any external files you should just copy var/data.fs and that should suffice. Any external files, if any, must be copied too. But if you have made any you should know where they are :-) regards Max M

WebDAV Speed Issues.
by Jason C. Leach 12 Jun '01

12 Jun '01

hi, What regulates Zope's WebDAV speed? The server, CPU/RAM, or bandwith? I would also be curious if WebDAV is generaly bandwith intensive. I have a Webfolder maped w/ NT 4.0 and find it a bit slow for 1 user. The server is pretty slow, and outgoing I only get 512K DSL speed. If it's generaly slow that fine, but if I can drop in more ram and a faster CPU can I get more speed? Thanks, j. ...................... ..... Jason C. Leach ... University College of the Cariboo. ..

Just don't use the fmt=structured-text but write <dtml-var stx_doc_name> and everything should be dandy regards Max M

Solution for copying a site
by Peter Bengtsson 12 Jun '01

12 Jun '01

My site is a bunch of Zope object such as DTML *, Images, Python Script, etc.etc. The heaviest part of it is the photos collection which is about 100 Mb if you click Export and look at the filesize of the zexp file. If I Export my whole site the zexp file would probably be about 105 Mb or something like that. Now I'd like to Export my site and 1) back up the functionality 2) take the rest home a work on it locally Shipping a 100 Mb file back and forth hom is not an option. One option would be to copy the whole site inside Zope and then have a script that removes all Photos from the copy and then Export the "emptied" copy. I have the script to do that, but I can't copy because the content is probably too big and I get errors from IOError. Does anybody have a good solution? I'd ultimatly like to click SpecialExport and filter some object and then wrap it up with the good old manage_exportObjects() Peter
