RE: [Zope] Using the replace function in a Zope Python Script

> Have you tried: > import string > > return string.replace("flubbery", "flub", "shrub") Alternatively you can use the under namespace: return _.string.replace("flubbery", "flub", "shrub") although you'll first need to go to the python script object's "Bindings" tab and bind _ as the namespace (which is the recommended value anyway). I'm not sure if/why this is better than the way mentioned above, mind. :-) -Andy -- Andy Gimblett - Programmer - Frontier Internet Services Limited Tel: 029 20 820 044 Fax: 029 20 820 035 http://www.frontier.net.uk/ Statements made are at all times subject to Frontier's Terms and Conditions of Business, which are available upon request.

How to I set permission to allow a script to executable within zope? I have a script which I have been trying to "test", but a dialog box pops up asking me to login each time, and none of the usernames/password that I tried worked.

by Gitte Wange 16 Aug '01

16 Aug '01

Hello, I want to use the replace function (from the string module?) in a python script (inside zope). But whenever i tries to call the replace function, I get a name error. Do I need to do a from <module> import string or is it something else ? If I need to import the module .. does anybodu know what module I need to import ? :-) Regards, -- Gitte Wange Jensen Sys Admin, Developer and a lot more MMmanager.org Aps, Denmark Phone: +45 29 72 79 72 Email: gitte(a)mmmanager.org Web: www.mmmanager.org Quote of the day: And in the end, reality always tends to hit theory hard in the face when you least expect it. - Linus Torvalds

It's called the Z-shaped learning curve. Trying to understand Zope before you dive in as a "mistake". Do the examples in the Zope book and any other examples you can find. How-to's etc. Then you need to develop a project, and then when you run into problems ask on the mailing list and the #zope irc channel. Regards Max M

grokking _vh_ in VirtualHostMonster
by seb bacon 16 Aug '01

16 Aug '01

I've just spent far too long wrestling with the VHM, but I've finally sorted it. However, I don't understand exactly what was going on, and I'd love an explanation. I was trying to get requests for http://www.foo.com/Bar/rest/of/url to look in http://localhost:8080/demo/Bar/SomeFolder/rest/of/url and I was using RewriteRule ^/([^/]+)/?(.*) http://localhost:9080/VirtualHostBase/http/www.foo.com:80/demo/$1/SomeFolde… [P] to do this. It worked, but absolute_url was resolving to http://www.foo.com/rest/of/url. In order to fix absolute_url, I found after much hair-tearing that the following worked: RewriteRule ^/([^/]+)/?(.*) http://localhost:9080/VirtualHostBase/http/www.foo.com:80/demo/$1/SomeFolde… [P] Why did the second version (with _vh_) work, but the first not? Cheers, seb

Fragmented DTML
by Paul Zwarts 16 Aug '01

16 Aug '01

Hi all, Would it at all be possible that one were to fragment dtml code between objects? Say you always use a header and footer, could you not enforce a <dtml-let data="SESSION.getSessionData()"> </dtml-let>between the header and footer? My thought is not as the developer is the only one that knows the header and footer are always executed in a chain. Just thought maybe someone thought of it before and had some kind of product or a suggestion how to enforce the CoreSession presence without rewriting everypage to make the data param. Thanks, Paz

SiteRoot in Zope 2.4.0
by Eric Vautour 16 Aug '01

16 Aug '01

Hello all, I installed the new version of zope and I set it up using various SiteRoot objects. Everything seems to be working correctly except that the "Folder at /email/OLD" link does not seem to work. It does not follow the base set up in the SiteRoot object. Furthermore, (this is not important but might be related) the link to the style sheet that the management screen uses can not be found. Does anyone know if there is a fix to this? Thanks

select.error: (4, 'Interrupted system call')
by John Ziniti 16 Aug '01

16 Aug '01

Hey all, I've been getting this all day today since I upgraded to Python 2.1.1 and Zope-2.4.0. It seems to happen randomly, but mostly when I am moving around the ZMI, the more I move around, the more likely it is to occur. It also brings down the Zope server, requiring a restart and is thuis rather annoying. Any ideas on causes, fixes, hunches? The traceback (printed to console) follows. Traceback (most recent call last): File "/u01/zope/Zope-2.4.0-src/z2.py", line 774, in ? asyncore.loop() File "/u01/zope//lib/python2.1/asyncore.py", line 194, in loop poll_fun (timeout, map) File "/u01/zope//lib/python2.1/asyncore.py", line 86, in poll r,w,e = select.select (r,w,e, timeout) select.error: (4, 'Interrupted system call') Thanks in advance, Ziniti -- John Ziniti Channing Laboratory Brigham and Women's Hospital 181 Longwood Avenue Brookline, MA 02115 john.ziniti(a)channing.harvard.edu
