compiling zope 2.5.0 on solaris 2.6 with python 2.2

hello, I have tried to compile zope on solaris 2.6 using Python 2.2 I am using Zope-2.5.0-src.tgz 1.) compile problems The first attempt to compile the python extensions failed, because the script do.py wanted to use target boot in Makefile.pre.in. In Python 2.2 the Makefile.pre.in has not such a target and therefore I copied Makefile.pre.in from python2.0/config/Makefile.pre.in a temporary directory and changed in do.py the following line do("cp %s ." % wheres_Makefile_pre_in()) into do("cp /home/jbr/t/t/Makefile.pre.in Makefile.pre.in") compiling without pcgi wrapper was successfull. python wo_pcgi.py 2.) when I try to start Zserver I get the warning below each second and a core dump: br@A7Dsid1 > ./start /opt/gnu/lib/python2.2/FCNTL.py:7: DeprecationWarning: the FCNTL module is deprecated; please use fcntl /opt/gnu/lib/python2.2/FCNTL.py:7: DeprecationWarning: the FCNTL module is deprecated; please use fcntl .... Does somebody knows how to compile zope2.5.0 on solaris ? With kind regards, Juergen Berger

Hi all, Got a little problem using exUserFolder.... I've got my folder set up and working fine. After a successful login, the the user is moved to the intended destination. So I've got my "add data" form, and I've secured it so it can only be used by authenticated users. So, my user tries to add a record, is redirected to the login screen, logs in, and then proceeds to the data entry page. Except! (here's the problem...) The URL the user is trying to access has parameters. To be specific, it's: http://1.2.3.4/AddBusinessForm?SelectCat=1&Cat=Computers But, when redirected through exUserFolder, the user is actually redirected to only http://1.2.3.4/AddBusinessForm. Anybody got any ideas on how I could somehow preserve the entire string? Many thanks in advance!

Iterating over meta-entries fields in Metapublisher
by Juergen Osterberg 18 Feb '02

18 Feb '02

dear all, I am using metapublisher: how do I iterate in dtml over one field of my meta-entries in order to change that field in all entries? I tried to use the editEntry method: <dtml-in entryIds> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('f1014038858', 'whatever')"> <dtml-call "editEntry(id=_['sequence-item'],title='',REQUEST=REQUEST,RESPONSE=RESPONSE) "> </dtml-in> and also directly the manage_editMetaEntry method which the editEntry uses. Neither of those worked as I did not manage to pass the variable to the method? Or may be I have not understood the REQUEST stuff yet? Best regards Juergen

[ANNOUNCE] ArielPartners releases CVSFile 0.7
by Craeg K. Strong 18 Feb '02

18 Feb '02

This is the first public release of our CVSFile <http://www.zope.org/Members/arielpartners/CVSFile> product. CVSFile enables Zope content to be served out of files residing in CVS sandboxes, and provides access to common CVS functions through the web in the Zope Management Interface. Why not simply use ZCVSFolder <http://www.zope.org/Members/sspickle/ZCVSMixin>? Because CVSFile stores files in CVS as normal files, rather than as Python "pickles." This makes it easy to use the same content, held in CVS, in both Zope and non-Zope contexts. CVSFile extends ExternalFile <http://www.zope.org/Members/arielpartners/ExternalFile>, and therefore inherits all of its functionality.

[ANNOUNCE] ArielPartners releases ExternalFile 0.9
by Craeg K. Strong 18 Feb '02

18 Feb '02

This is the third public release of our ExternalFile <http://www.zope.org/Members/arielpartners/ExternalFile> product. Why not simply use ExtFile <http://www.zope.org/Members/MacGregor/ExtFile>? Because ExternalFile supports pointing to a file "in situ" like a symbolic link, rather than copying it into some central repository directory. This may not seem like a big deal, until you consider that those files might be stored in a revision control system like CVS. ExternalFile gives you the ability to create a Zope object that points to a file in, for example, a CVS sandbox for its content. This new release is compatible with CVSFile-0-7. It also features "workalike" capabilities. ExternalFile can behave like any of the following: * DTMLDocument * DTMLMethod * Image ExternalFile is usable by itself. It is also the base class for CVSFile <http://www.zope.org/Members/arielpartners/CVSFile>.

Cut and paste this from here to line 132 or so. That is, you want to move POPY_NUMERIC from being one of the cases that falls into res = PyInt_FromLong(... to being one of cases that falls into PyFloat_FromDouble(... Recompile. It will then work. Note: python2.1 and python2.2 exhibit different behavior than python1.5. In python1.5, if you had 2.10 stored, the result would be displayed as 2.1. In the 2.x family it will be displayed as something like 2.100000001. Make sure you pass it through your own formatting routine before displaying. Jim Penny

Re: [Zope] newbie question: restart zope remotely?

In case the machine still runs it would be possible to solve the situation using a remote control program like VNC (http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/) Still this has some security implications because VNC itself doesn't have encrypted communication builtin.

RE: [Zope] connet to MS-SQL database with ython script from with in zope
by Stuart Nicholson 18 Feb '02

I think you'll find these are 'r for Record' instances returned from the sql object. From memory you should be able to do things like for r in results: print r['MySQLFieldName'] print r[0] or alternately r[0]['MySQLFieldName'] or r[0][0] to access the first record field values. Where each record contains a field called 'MySQLFieldName' and r[0] gets you the 'first' SQL field value returned from your query as a string, r[1] gets the second SQL field value etc. etc. So to print every field of every record you could do something like: for rec in results: for fieldName in rec.keys(): print fieldName, ' = ', rec[ 'fieldName' ] Hope that helps (and I may be wrong, been a couple of months since I've worked with Zope SQL interface).

ZSQL methods return special objects ('pluggable brains' I believe they are called - I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong). Try this to see how to use them from python scripts (dtml docs/methods have some magic that makes it easy transparent)... ------- sql="Select * from LinkArea" results = container.sql_method(the_sql=sql) headings = results.names() # names() gives you the column headings print headings for row in results: for heading in headings: print row[heading] return printed -------- There's also a dictionaries() method on the result object that is very helpful.
