Problems with Zope 2.4.0 and OpenBSD 2.8
by Pat Ritchie 07 Aug '01

07 Aug '01

Hi, I'm having all sorts of problems getting Zope running on my i386 OpenBSD box. I am using python 2.1.1 compiled with --with-threads. The first problem I had was compiling Zope, I got this error: make: don't know how to make ././src/Splitter.c. Stop I read the docs (doc/FAQ.txt) and It said for some BSD systems you need to use make -k, I made this change and it compiled. Once compiled I edited z2.py to use port 80 (8080 is blocked by my firewall) and then ran start. It seems to start up and run fine but when I go to myserver.com/manage it asks me for my name and password and then stalls loading the page. Log file output: B 10064236 2001-08-07T21:09:40 GET /manage I 10064236 2001-08-07T21:09:40 0 A 10064236 2001-08-07T21:09:40 200 1106 E 10064236 2001-08-07T21:09:40 B 10064108 2001-08-07T21:09:41 GET /manage_top_frame I 10064108 2001-08-07T21:09:41 0 A 10064108 2001-08-07T21:09:41 200 1404 E 10064108 2001-08-07T21:09:41 B 10065740 2001-08-07T21:09:41 GET /manage_workspace I 10065740 2001-08-07T21:09:41 0 A 10065740 2001-08-07T21:09:41 302 421 E 10065740 2001-08-07T21:09:41 B 10066220 2001-08-07T21:09:41 GET /manage_menu I 10066220 2001-08-07T21:09:41 0 A 10066220 2001-08-07T21:09:42 200 2773 B 10065740 2001-08-07T21:09:42 GET /p_/zopelogo_jpg I 10065740 2001-08-07T21:09:42 0 E 10066220 2001-08-07T21:09:42 A 10065740 2001-08-07T21:09:42 200 3090 E 10065740 2001-08-07T21:09:42 B 10065740 2001-08-07T21:09:42 GET /manage_page_style.css I 10065740 2001-08-07T21:09:42 0 A 10065740 2001-08-07T21:09:42 200 2894 E 10065740 2001-08-07T21:09:42 B 10067788 2001-08-07T21:09:42 GET /manage_main I 10067788 2001-08-07T21:09:42 0 This could be related to the original compiling problem as the -k flag tells make to "Continue processing after errors are encountered, but only on those targets that do not depend on the target whose creation caused the error" ... In other words I might now be missing an essential bit of Zope? Should this message be sent to the Zope-dev list as well? Thanks, Patrick

Building a page from multiple paramatised queries
by Giles Chamberlin 07 Aug '01

07 Aug '01

I'm a zope novice so I'm probably missing something obvious. My intent is to build a web page from the results of two queries, each of which are paramatised by the same value. I've got a single query working fine: FeatureDetailQuery has a parameter ID and SQL: select * from Feature where <dtml-sqltest Id op=eq type=int> FeatureDetail is a simple web page: <dtml-var standard_html_header> <h1><dtml-var Name></h1> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> and I bind the two together by referencing them with the a href = FeatureDetailQuery/Id/<dtml-var Id>/FeatureDetail All's well. My problem is that I want to add the output of another query, also parametised by Id to the same web page and I'm stumped as to how to go about it. Any suggestions? Giles Chamberlin

Sql questions.
by CHOY,CHARLENE (HP-Boise,ex1) 07 Aug '01

07 Aug '01

Hi, The following is my problem. I have created a search form to look up some data from a database. The result of the search needs to be able to return the searched data in certain order. How do I set condition in the sql method so that it will return the object that I want and also specific sorting_method that the user had chosen in the form. I have attempted to solve this problem. I have created two sql methods but both of them perform two differenct tasks. One of them is able to return the searched data that I want, but the data are not in order. The second sql will return correct order, but it includes some other serch data that I don't want. Does anyone know to combine both of them so that the users can get the data that they are looking for in the sorting method that they have chosen? I would also like to know is there anyway that i can set some if/elif/else condition in the dtml-sql? If so how can I do it. -Charlene

I'm trying to create a Pluggable Brain so I can incorporate various functions involving employees from my ZSQL Method. This is the SQL code: SELECT StaffId, empfirstn, emplastn, nickname, extension, initials FROM tblHRPersonnel INNER JOIN tblS4Emp ON tblHRPersonnel.empidno = tblS4Emp.empidno WHERE tblS4Emp.empactive='Y' AND tblHRPersonnel.FilterOutofWeb=False ORDER BY tblS4Emp.emplastn; This is the Employee.py file in the Extensions folder: """Employee class for extra innformation""" class Employee: def fullName(self): """Returns full name for employee using nickname if any""" if self.nickname: return self.nickname + ' ' + self.emplastn else: return self.empfirstn + ' ' + self.emplastn This is the error: Traceback (innermost last): File e:\Program Files\Zope\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 223, in publish_module File e:\Program Files\Zope\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 187, in publish File e:\Program Files\Zope\lib\python\Zope\__init__.py, line 221, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: ActiveStaff) File e:\Program Files\Zope\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 171, in publish File e:\Program Files\Zope\lib\python\ZPublisher\mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: manage_advanced) File e:\Program Files\Zope\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 112, in call_object (Object: manage_advanced) File E:\Program Files\zope\lib\python\Shared\DC\ZRDB\DA.py, line 299, in manage_advanced (Object: ActiveStaff) File E:\Program Files\zope\lib\python\App\Extensions.py, line 238, in getBrain File E:\Program Files\zope\lib\python\App\Extensions.py, line 217, in getObject (Info: ('e:\\Program Files\\Zope\\Extensions\\Employee.py', 'Employee')) SyntaxError: (see above)

Photo information

I'm trying to extract the IPTC/NAA caption information from JPEGs stored by Photoshop. I've noticed the IPTC plugin for the Python Imaging Library, but can't figure out how it works and can't seem to find any helpful docs on it. Two questions: Anyone know how to do this, and is it best once I've figure out that part of the puzzle to access it through an external method? Or is Zope gonna strip out the information when the image is made into an image object? Thanks! -- Chris Muldrow muldrow(a)mac.com cmuldrow(a)fredeicksburg.com

RE: [Zope] mySQL and Zope and multiple databases
by Schmidt, Allen J. 07 Aug '01

Yes, this is what I mean. I can do it from the mySQL admin tool just fine. I will look into external methods then. Thanks! -----Original Message----- From: Eric Walstad [mailto:eric@walstads.net] Sent: Tuesday, August 07, 2001 1:35 PM To: Schmidt, Allen J.; Zope mailing list Subject: RE: [Zope] mySQL and Zope and multiple databases Allen, I just reread your message and I think misunderstood it the first time. The link I sent before describes querying two databases, not querying against two MySQL Database connections in one ZSQL method... This kind of query could be run from an external method that queries the two databases and returns the result set to Zope, tho. I think that would do what you need. As each ZSQL method has one database connection property, I'm not sure how, or if, you could specify using two database connections in one ZSQL method.
