How do I tell when the last login was?
by Oliver Erlewein 14 Jul '01

14 Jul '01

Hi I want to know when the last login of a Zopeuser was. I use the normal acl_users of Zope. Is there something similar to bobobase_modification_time? If not, where do I start to add such functionality?

ZODB: Invalid Object Reference adding External Method
by Brad Clements 14 Jul '01

14 Jul '01

This one has me skunked Zope 2.3.3 binary on RH Linux 7.1 I have CMF-1.1 and CMFWiki installed. I'm using INSTANCE_HOME. I'm trying to migrate my old ZWiki pages using the do_site method in CMFWiki/Extensions/migrate.py When I try to add this external method, I get this traceback. This is when adding the external method, not when trying to call it: Error Type: InvalidObjectReference Error Value: Attempt to store an object from a foreign database connection Traceback (innermost last): File /usr/Zope/Zope-2.3.2-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 223, in publish_module File /usr/Zope/Zope-2.3.2-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 187, in publish File /usr/Zope/Zope-2.3.2-linux2-x86/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 221, in zpublisher_exception_hook File /usr/Zope/Zope-2.3.2-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 175, in publish File /usr/Zope/Zope-2.3.2-linux2-x86/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 235, in commit File /usr/Zope/Zope-2.3.2-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZODB/Transaction.py, line 300, in commit File /usr/Zope/Zope-2.3.2-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py, line 375, in commit (Info: (('Products.ExternalMethod.ExternalMethod', 'ExternalMethod'), '\000\000\000\000\000\000/\363', '')) InvalidObjectReference: (see above) id: Migrate title: blank module name: CMFWiki.migrate Function: do_site Any ideas?

Re: [Zope] Starting a new database with MySQL
by liz 14 Jul '01

14 Jul '01

We've got a form going with a MySQL database that submits things to an email address. Trying to set up this database isn't working for some reason. (I didn't set up the other one, and the person who did is currently out of town.) Thanks for the suggestions, everyone.

Otherwise, it converts it into a string. Your instance object is apparently not callable. The "str" function, then, returns "<classname ....>". > .... > Now, when I use DTML Method as a base class it works, but dtml > variables in the class index_html file aren't interpreted. eg they > display as "<dtml-var test>" Hmm: If you use "<dtml-var your_instance>", the "index_html" is irrelevant. Instead, you should get the rendered content of your DTML in the instance itself (it is a DTML Method, you told us!). If you use "<dtml-var "your_instance.index_html">", then the calling magic does not apply (because in a Python expression, i.e. inside "...", you take over full control -- no more magic!). The "str" applied to a DTML object returns the source html-quoted, as you described. To render "index_html", you should use: <dtml-var "_.render(your_instance.index_html)"> Dieter

Last Modified Entry for Methods
by Martin Stötzel 14 Jul '01

14 Jul '01

Hi all, I use the bobobase property(?) to display when a document has been edited. <dtml-var bobobase_modification_time fmt="%d.%m.%Y"> But this works so far only for folders and not for methods. Or is there any opportunity to get the "last modified" entry from the index_html Method? It is listed in the standard manage-view... Martin

DTML-IN not using SIZE parameter in HDML coding.
by Schmidt, Allen J. 14 Jul '01

14 Jul '01

I'm working on an HDML page to displayed on a WAP-enabled phone. Its all done in Zope. The application works great. It asks you for part of a company name to search for, submits and queries a database and returns a list of company names that match. However, it seems to be ignoring the size parameter of the dtml-in tag. So long at the list is fewer than 10 it works fine. If over that, the phone can't handle the display of the page and throws an error. Not a Zope error but one from the phone. Any idea why size would not work with HDML? Thanks Allen

cut / change letters in a string in python
by Marcus Schopen 14 Jul '01

14 Jul '01

Hi, how do I cut all letters in a string? The string is "6.0b". Before using float ("6.0b") I'd like to change "b" to "02" or just cut all letters. Thanks and good night Marcus -- _____________________________________ (0> Marcus Schopen //\ P.O.

Strange Linux Behavior
by Jason Joy 14 Jul '01

14 Jul '01

I have set up Zope on a RedHat 7.1 distribution and had everything working terrifically until... I changed the hostname of the machine from "foo" to "bar" ... now when it is as "bar", I get a z2 startup exception: File /usr/local/Zope/z2.py, line 623, in ? File /usr/local/Zope/ZServer/HTTPServer.py, line 391, in __init__ File /usr/local/Zope/ZServer/medusa/http_server.py, line 550, in __init__ Error: host not found Any ideas? Jason

Netscape renders different than IE
by rlanham＠speakeasy.net 14 Jul '01

14 Jul '01

Below is a snip of the dtml I use in the leftnav of a wiki-like site I made. It is not pretty, pieced together from snips from this list, but it was working just fine until I moved the site from Zope running on WinMe to RedHat7.1. (To accomplish this move, once I got linux installed, I mounted the windows partition and copie Data.fs to the new Zope folder in linux. I really didn't expect it to work, but it did. However...) This snip is supposed to display a checkbox next to items that the authenticated user owns. Also it hides files that have hide in the name from non-owners. (This part handles docs and images. I have another section (nearly identical) to handle folders.) This works fine in Netscape, but no longer works in IE (ver 5.0 on win2k server). And as this is all server side, I cannot understand how this could be. Why would zope process this differenly based on client? Also, per a thread I noticed awhile ago, I can no longer manage the site remotely with IE, the manage frame renders index_html instead.
