exUserFolder is loosing the query string
by Dieter Fischer 06 Nov '02

06 Nov '02

Hello I got a problem using exUserFolder. I have a start form, which serves as a menu. There I call a form in a way like http://myserver/mydir/mysubdir/myform?variable=A Then, as desired, I've got the verification form which asks me for username/password. But after the input an the redirection to the "myform", it has lost the query (?variable=A)! Can somebody help me?

ZPT issues
by Tom Deprez 06 Nov '02

06 Nov '02

Hi, I'm not sure how to implement something with ZPT and need your advice: I'll do my best to explain the problem, but I'm not sure if I will succeed, since it is not easy to show. I've a site which has several folders, they all follow the same strategy. Basicly what you have is a page with the top half some general information. The bottom half is split in two 'panes': the left contains a list of items, the right contains more information of the selected item. People can delete/edit/look a selected item. Depending on what people want to do, the right bottom 'pane' has to be different. Every action is in a different folder, so the layout looks like: Root ... Lists Flowers Delete Edit Insert Boats Delete Edit Insert ... Now, I'm implementing this in PT, but I'm a little stuck here, since it seems ZPT can't stack. eg I've a master PT which defines the general layout (menus) and contains slots, situated in the root. The slots are toppane (to fill in the toppane) and bottompane (to fill in the bottompane). To be correct, I should create a new master page for the 'Flowers' & 'Boats' folders, because they have a different layout, namely 'top pane', 'bottom left pane', 'bottom right pane'. But when I do this, aren't I then overruling the way for what PT were designed? If I now want to change the layout of my site, I have to change 2 pages (and who know how much more if we go further into detail). Changing 2 isn't that bad, however, most of the parts are in fact the same! The menu handling etc is the same... I was wondering if it is possible to have PT which can inherit from another PT, but can extend it with new slots/macros. Which is at the moment not possible, I think. Thanks in advance, Tom.

xmlrpclib, TypeError, "Too many arguments"
by Tim Hicks 06 Nov '02

06 Nov '02

ZopeCrew, I'm using xmlrpc between two zope instances (well, actually, between 1 instance during development). Things were working well and I was able to call remote methods and get the return values. However, today, I made a few changes to my code (on both the client and the server side), and now I'm only getting 'Fault's back when the methods are called over xmlrpc. So, I have my Server class and my Client class. Server has method objects created dynamically, thus: class Method: def __init__(self, obj, method): self.obj = obj self.method = method def __call__(self, *args, **kw): method = getattr(self.getCurrentConverter(), self.method) return apply(method, args, kw) class Server(...): def manage_afterAdd(self, item, container): for each_string in aList: setattr(self, each_string, Method(self, each_string)) This setup works when the methods are called directly from zope. The method that gets fetched within the __call__ has the following call signature: def word2html(self, file, b64, cleanup=1, tidy=1, *args, **kw) and I know that I'm passing the right number of parameters over the wire via xmlrpc because I've used Shane Hathaway's TCPWatch program to verify (see below). However, I keep getting TypeError:"Too many arguments" returned in my Fault message. Does anyone have any idea what's going wrong? tim [00:00.000 - client 137.222.10.83:3511 forwarded to is-webz.bris.ac.uk:8080] [00:00.000 - server connected] POST /RPC2 HTTP/1.0 Host: is-webz.bris.ac.uk:4444 User-Agent: xmlrpclib.py/0.9.8 (by www.pythonware.com) Content-Type: text/xml Content-Length: 31414 AUTHORIZATION: Basic dGltOnVwb3J0YWw= <?xml version='1.0'?> <methodCall> <methodName>word2html</methodName> <params> <param> <value><string>0M8R4KGxGuEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPgADAP7/CQAGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABAAAAKAAAAAAAAAAA [snip a whole load of base64 encoded stuff] AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA </string></value> </param> <param> <value><int>1</int></value> </param> <param> <value><int>1</int></value> </param> <param> <value><int>1</int></value> </param> </params> </methodCall>

ZCatalog reindexing fails
by Lars H. Korte 06 Nov '02

06 Nov '02

Hi, I'm trying to reindex the SearchableText index in my portal_catalog. After clicking on reindex and waiting a short time an Attribute Error occurs saying "getUserById" the error log has the following traceback: --- Traceback (innermost last): Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 98, in publish Module ZPublisher.mapply, line 88, in mapply Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 39, in call_object Module Products.ZCatalog.ZCatalog, line 472, in manage_reindexIndex Module Products.ZCatalog.ZCatalog, line 457, in reindexIndex Module Products.CMFCore.CatalogTool, line 232, in catalog_object Module Products.ZCatalog.ZCatalog, line 500, in catalog_object Module Products.ZCatalog.Catalog, line 295, in catalogObject Module Products.ZCatalog.Catalog, line 403, in recordify Module Products.CMFDefault.DublinCore, line 104, in Creator Module AccessControl.Owned, line 87, in getOwner AttributeError: getUserById --- I'm using Zope 2.6.0 + CMF 1.3 + Plone1.0b2 and LDAP Authentication. There seems to be a problem with a username I think. How can I make Zope print (perhaps in a file) which name that is? Or could this error have another reason? I would appreciate any help!! regards Lars

RE: [Zope] Form Action question
by McDonnell, Larry 06 Nov '02

Thanks Clemens, you're right this will help me with error trapping thanks. -----Original Message----- From: Clemens Robbenhaar [mailto:robbenhaar@espresto.com] Sent: Tuesday, November 05, 2002 6:24 PM To: McDonnell, Larry Cc: zope(a)zope.org Subject: [Zope] Form Action question Hi Larry, [snip description] ... if I understand Your question right, You use the Session to store a variable 'menu_type', which will determine the object the form submit is send to. Your problem is: > > I have tried different variation but I will get a keyerror or a global > error. Any pointers would be great. Hm, maybe post one variation (preferably reduced to a minimal version) and one error message -- this would help spotting the problem, I guess. You may alternatively set the action for the form to a Python script, which investigates the session data and then dispatches to the "right" DTML Method displaying the selected form. If you do so, You could do better checks in the script, if the session variable is set at all or do other logic. For example You could do: if not request.SESSION.has_key('menu_type'): # hm, something is wrong ... handle error, e.g. raise IndexError, 'session has no key "menu_type"' else: form_renderer = getattr(context, menu_type) return form_renderer() This may give You more freedom to add debugging hooks to find the problem Yourself. Cheers, Clemens

Re: [Zope] Upgrading from 2.5.1 to 2.6.0 Problems
by Josef Meile 06 Nov '02

06 Nov '02

Hi Sascha, thanks for your reply. It solved part of the problem. > look at the message from Gidon a couple of days ago. Maybe you have the same problem that we had: Old ZClasses > wouldn't move over or import into 2.6, because something has changed in the interfaces. Gidons solution was to > remove entries in the subobjects, then export and re-import the ZClasses. Afterwards recreate the entries for subobjects. It works for the three Zclasses that Zope didn't import before. I'm not having that long error message about the "pickled data" anymore, but I'm still having this one: ------ 2002-11-06T10:37:14 ERROR(200) Zope Couldn't install OFSP Traceback (innermost last): Module OFS.Application, line 700, in install_product - __traceback_info__: OFSP Module ZODB.Transaction, line 222, in commit Module ZODB.Transaction, line 195, in commit Module ZODB.Transaction, line 256, in _commit_objects Module ZODB.Connection, line 389, in commit - __traceback_info__: (('intSet', 'intSet'), '\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x08:', '') Module ZODB.FileStorage, line 705, in store ConflictError: database conflict error (oid 000000000000083a, serial was 0348a51f52d8776e, now 0000000000000000) ------ 2002-11-06T10:37:16 ERROR(200) Zope Couldn't install ZCatalog Traceback (innermost last): Module OFS.Application, line 700, in install_product - __traceback_info__: ZCatalog Module ZODB.Transaction, line 222, in commit Module ZODB.Transaction, line 195, in commit Module ZODB.Transaction, line 256, in _commit_objects Module ZODB.Connection, line 389, in commit - __traceback_info__: (('intSet', 'intSet'), '\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x0e\xb6', '') Module ZODB.FileStorage, line 705, in store ConflictError: database conflict error (oid 0000000000000eb6, serial was 0348a51f6ab4c9a2, now 0000000000000000) ------ What could be the problem?
