Permissions & MS OS's

19 Jul '01

I have searched the archives for platform dependencies on security but did not find this problem. In FreePM I can add instances of the Employee ZClass (which adds a Zope user to FreePM/acl_users) on Linux as a Manager but on Win98SE, WinME & NT (others not tested) I get a permission error on manage_users. This traceback is from a WinME (don't ask why <g>) installation. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Site Error An error was encountered while publishing this resource.

Object Oriented Development and ZClasses in Zope
by David Legg 19 Jul '01

19 Jul '01

Hi all, Does anyone know of a good tutorial on object oriented development in Zope using ZClasses, or know if it might be documented well in one of the existing or upcoming books. I was thinking specifically of how a class diagram might be mapped to the Zope environment, and how certain areas such as saving of persistent objects to a database and reading these back into objects might take place - basically the way things should be happening or a choice of ways to do certain things with recommendations. The end result is to create an entire system and be able to model it and it's sub-systems as products for reuse. I assume a product translates equally to what a package does in Java speak. Anyway, I'd appreciate a bit of enlightenment in this very powerful area of Zope. Perhaps might be a forum for discussion as to how people are currently building their systems in Zope using an object oriented methodology - saving of persistent objects - ZODB or RDBMS? I await some interesting responses! David Legg

Re: [Zope] RBrowser (Mac OS X) FTP client converts all objects to DTML Documents
by Anthony Baxter 19 Jul '01

Have a look at the ZServer logs, and see what it's doing. I'm guessing that it's deleting the object, then creating it again, when writing it out.

kludge: 2.4/HTMLDocument
by Kyler B. Laird 18 Jul '01

18 Jul '01

I wanted to install Evan's new ZPT, so I made a fresh Zope 2.4 installation from scratch. I noticed there's something I forgot to put in my install script... HTMLDocument/HTMLDocument.py needs to have __implements__ = IHTMLDocument # XXX ??? commented out. I forget exactly why I did this the first time. This time I noticed that the HTMLDocument icon was broken. This fixed it. --kyler

hi, Does someone have a reference to some info on what I can do if our Zope DB starts to get too large? 2GB is not that much now days, so I would like to look option now well before our DB hits that limit. We run on Linux, and will for the next while. Thanks, j. -- ...................... ..... Jason C. Leach ..

Don't use both ZScheduler and Xron. Use just Xron. They are really different versions of the same product. Xron is newer.

RE: [Zope] Lost with ZEO Setup
by Dunigan, Craig 18 Jul '01

18 Jul '01

Alex, I have run into this error as well. I solved it by linking cPickle.so from $SOFTWARE_HOME/lib/python into $SOFTWARE_HOME/lib/python/ZODB. I'm not sure that's a good final solution, though, but it's an okay workaround for now (YMMV!). It seems that ZEO uses a later version of cPickle than Zope 2.3.3, at least according to Jeremy Hylton at DC. I'm copying this to zodb-dev(a)zope.org, which is the best place for ZEO questions and problems. Perhaps someone there could enlighten both of us as to a better solution?
