Oop sorry, just noticed you said Python Script in that case the equivalent is: # 'data' is the key of the posted data we want data = context.REQUEST.get('data', None) if data is not None: do something Having a method that just prints out the REQUEST variables is always useful for debugging anyway ;) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andy McKay" <andy(a)agmweb.ca> To: "Janez Jere" <janez.jere(a)void.si>; <zope(a)zope.org> Sent: Tuesday, March 12, 2002 7:47 PM Subject: Re: [Zope] stdin.read() in Python script > All data posted to Zope is placed in the REQUEST object.

hi, How can I check the size of a folder and all of its contents ( including sub-folders); so I guess I mean parent object and all child objects. j. -- ...................... ..... Jason C. Leach .. PGP/GPG Public key at http://www.keyserver.net/ Key ID: 1CF6DA85

Different 'managers'
by Dennis Gearon 13 Mar '02

13 Mar '02

Can different managers be created by a 'super manager'? I would be looking to have a manager have access only in certain places on the content/database/template trees, and below of course. Anything above that would be the super user/manager. How fine grained can the access be set up for roles in the site structure? -- If You want to buy computer parts, see the reviews at: http://www.cnet.com/ **OR EVEN BETTER COMPILATIONS**!! http://sysopt.earthweb.com/userreviews/products/

stdin.read() in Python script
by Janez Jere 13 Mar '02

13 Mar '02

Hi, I was adviced in comp.lang.python that I have a problem for this mailing list: Could you help me port my simple cgi to zope pathon script. Problem which I am unable to solve is reading posted raw data (legacy client posts a xml document to my cgi and expects a result). I tried very hard to find a solution, in mean time i wrote script with mod_python, which works well, but I need to run it fast in app server. Among all my attempts the closest solutions are: request.get(BODY) # BODYFILE a and request.stdin.read() # but it is not allowed to access read method. Thanks, janez # CGI script and test import sys, os if len(sys.argv) == 1: print 'Content-Type: text/plain' print length = os.environ['CONTENT_LENGTH'] #print 'length', length print repr(sys.stdin.read(int(length))) # !!! how to read posted data !!! else: # test echo url = sys.argv[1] import urllib2 as w x= w.urlopen(url, 'abc '*300) print 'read(%s):\n' % url, x.read()

Re: Pay or DIO

Believe me. Mm.. could be, but as far as I am concerned, I would most likely pay for example $100 / year for a good support list, where I would know that there is a person dedicated for answering people's questions and this way also updating somekind of knowledge pool. The procedure could be something like this: 1) People who use zope commercially would propably have no problem coughing up $100 / year. Let's be overly optimsitic and say that there would be 100 subscribers, which would make up $10 000 for Zope Corp. 2) Zope corp. would then use this small amount of money to put someone's worktime into keeping up this list and updating answers into free knowledgepool. Some of the questions posted to the list would propably be found in the database, so the work would be copy & paste and some minor editing. Also other persons on the list would contribute to the problems posted by others - thus contributing more to the knowledgepool. 3) Everyone outside this list, would be able to use the knowledgepool free and this way also benefit from all the answers... Ok. This would only work - if there would actually be atleast those 100 users paying the small fee to help the cause. This would only work - if that money would actually be used to have someone answer questions and maintain some kind of better answer database. Or am I just too idealistic? I wouldn't mind contibuting to this kind of thing financially if I would know that there are plenty of others too! It means more help and money in long run also to me, if I can help Zope become more popular and better product -- and get better help to my problems. -huima

I need a clue
by Jeff Nielsen / UgoFast 13 Mar '02

13 Mar '02

I'm trying to do a rather simple thing, I think, but I can't get it to work right. If someone can point out where I'm going astray, it would be appreciated. I'm trying to iterate over a list of files in a LocalFS subdirectory, and then write out some html if the files end in .gif or .jpg. Something like this: <dtml-in "images[FSSession['LoginCompanyImagesPath']].fileIds()"> <dtml-if "_.string.find('sequence-item','.gif') >= 0 or _.string.find('sequence-item','.jpg') >= 0"> ..do some things if a .gif or .jpg file </dtml-if> </dtml-in> However, the find always returns -1, regradless of whether the sequence-item has .gif or.jpg in it. I'm baffled. Jeff Nielsen / UgoFast http://www.UgoFast.com Jeff(a)UgoFast.com

Mount Zope parts to local Linux file system
by Marcus Schopen 12 Mar '02

12 Mar '02

Hello, I'd like to mount parts of my Zope to local Linux file system on the same machine (no X installed). Found two projects on sourceforge: davfs and ftpfs http://dav.sourceforge.net/ http://ftpfs.sourceforge.net/ Did someone make any experience with this software (unstable etc.)? Or any other ideas how to do that? Second question: Is there any possibility to share parts of Zope with SAMBA? Thank you Marcus -- Petition for a Software Patent Free Europe http://petition.eurolinux.org

Failed to install Zope
by Carsten Reimer 12 Mar '02

12 Mar '02

Hello I just tried to install a Source-Distribution of Zope 2.5.0 on a System with self-compiled Python 2.2. But when calling any of the scripts wo_pcgi.py or w_pcgi.py the installation process ended in the 'Building extension-modules'-section with the message that it is trying to copy the file /usr/local/lib/python2.2/config/Makefile.pre.in which does not exist and therefor could not be copied. This results in a System Error 256 and the process breaks. All this is happening on Linux with a 2.4.17-Kernel. Maybe anyone has any hints, what I can do about. Thanks in advance with best regards Carsten Reimer (reimer(a)wiz.uni-kassel.de) -------------------------- Some hints about email at the Heise-Verlag: http://www.heise.de/ct/00/12/092/

They are both available NOW or in the very near future (for new version of nuxworkflow). No need to wait for ZOPE3. I suppose a clear explanation of the 2 will shortly come to help you choose which suits best your needs. Both are developped under contractual basis and will be made compliant with the cmf, hence with zope3 also. Maybe a specific mailing list could be created to discuss the important subject of workflow in zope. They will also be integrated with the coming groupzope, a full feature gropware system, also developped by Nuxeo for the Region of Brussels-Capitals, that is planned to be GPL and be available by next september.
