Keep it on the list! So, you need python 2.1.2, plus header files. seb On Wed, 2002-03-06 at 10:54, Julian Baker wrote: > I'm using Python 2.1 > Digital UNIX ver4 Alpha > > seb bacon wrote: > > > > Did you take heed of this in the README.txt...? > > > > * Zope requires Python 2.1 > > > > (Hmm, come to think of it, that should read python 2.1.2). > > > > seb > > > > On Tue, 2002-03-05 at 17:06, Julian Baker wrote: > > > Hi all > > > > > > I'm having problems with installing Zope 2.5.0 src on a UNIX platform > > > (python 2.1) > > > when i enter the compile command > > > > > > python wo_pcgi.py > > > > > > or > > > > > > python w_pcgi.py > > > > > > it displays the following error after a while... > > > > > > 9_1_Splitter.o'.

Kube and ZPT
by Tom Nixon 12 Mar '02

12 Mar '02

Has anyone on the list been using the Kube product? I have built a simple site using folders for the main site areas and Kubes to hold the document content. The structure looks like this: Root |- index_html (Page Template) |- WhoWeAre (Folder) | |- CompanyInfo (Kube) | '- People (Kube) '- WhatWeDo (Folder) |- Products (Kube) '- Services (Kube) If I call http://zopeserver/WhoWeAre/CompanyInfo the index_html template is rendered using content from the CompanyInfo Kube - Great. BUT... When Someone calls http://zopeserver/WhoWeAre I would like it to default to the CompanyInfo Kube. I cannot create an index_html inside the WhoWeAre folder because we need it to acquire index_html from the root for presentation. I also thought about making WhoWeAre into a Kube which contains the other Kubes but this seems wrong to me because WhoWeAre is part of the site structure, and not content in its own right. Can anyone suggest anything else? T.

AW: [Zope] Create my own edit form
by Breitenreicher, Marc 12 Mar '02

12 Mar '02

Unfortunatelly, it not the solution. It returns: AttributeError: document_src Does anyone know, if I perhaps have to use the document_src function like this: URL/mydocument/document_src() I'm not sure.

Create my own edit form
by Breitenreicher, Marc 12 Mar '02

12 Mar '02

Hi community, I'm trying to build my own edit form for DTML-Documents. Therefore I need to get the unrendered data of a document to print out in a textarea-box. How can I do that? I tried something like <textarea name="data:string" cols="50" rows="10"> <dtml-var "_[mydocument]"> </textarea> The variable 'mydocument' is the document I want to edit. But this returns the rendered dtml-code, only html-tag stay as they were. Who can help me? Thanks in advance Marc

SQL compare to form value -HELP-
by Sean Kelley 12 Mar '02

12 Mar '02

I am trying to test whether or not 3 SQL fields are equal to a form field. I am doing this within an SQL method. (I am trying to learn zope and Mysql at the sam time) How does one do this? Here is where I am going with this so far: I have these listed as arguments: Breeds Breed1 Breed2 Breed3 SELECT * from Ranch WHERE Breeds = <dtml-sqltest name="Breed1" type="string"> OR Breeds = <dtml-sqltest name="Breed2" type="string"> or Breeds = <dtml-sqltest name="Breed3" type="string"> Breeds is the name of the form input and I want to test and see if it equals any one of the 3 fields Breed1, Breed2, or Breed3 and return all of the row if there is a match. -- Sean

Newby question: Finding unique values from a ZCatalog, matching a criteria
by Dianne Van Dulken 12 Mar '02

12 Mar '02

Hi, This is probably going to be a laughably easy question for most of you, but it is confusing me no end. I have a ZCatalog set up for a list of merchants. They can be active, inactive or pending. The merchant name isn't unique, as there can be one merchant in books, same one in DVDs, etc. What I am trying to do is to return a unique list of all merchants who are active. If I use <dtml-in "CatalogMerCat(sort_by='merchant', status='Active')"> I get all active ones, but are getting Merchant1, Merchant1, Merchant2, etc. If I use <dtml-in "CatalogMerCat.uniqueValuesFor('merchant')"> I am getting Merchant1, Merchant2, etc, whether they are active or not. I tried one after the other, but the outer one is the only one returned. I also tried <dtml-in "CatalogMerCat.uniqueValuesFor('merchant'),status='Active'"> (and various different location for the status), but it keeps on giving me an error. Could anyone suggest what I ought to be doing? It seems like such an easy thing to do, but I just can't work out what I should be doing. Cheers Di

how to dynamically define a ZMySQL connection
by alt 12 Mar '02

12 Mar '02

Does anybody know how I could dynamically edit an existing ZMySQL connection object, within a HotFix product or some python based method? Reason I ask is sometimes the mysql server will move to a different machine. I'd prefer not to login to Zope and make the change, but rather edit some external file that defines the server name. If there is a way to access the various Data.fs objects from a HotFix type product, I think this would be possible. Thanks, Albert

RE: [Zope-dev] variables in zope (beginner question)
by sean.upton＠uniontrib.com 12 Mar '02

12 Mar '02

Please consider directing this to zope(a)zope.org, not zope-dev(a)zope.org... I've cc'd that list. The DTML you have is wrong (you can't nest DTML tags), if you use DTML for logic, things can get messy. Consider putting your code in a python script and call that from DTML or Page templates... You don't need to daclare a variable if you are using a python script, just assign a value to it in your loop. Perhaps the Python Tutorial at python.org might be a good place to start. Doing this kind of thing in DTML is a bit more messy: my suggestion, do it in a Python script.

Management interface for Extensions/Import folder
by Juergen R. Plasser / Hexagon 12 Mar '02

12 Mar '02

I don't know if this was ever discussed on this list but I would like to have a management interface for the Extensions and the import folder in a future version of Zope (maybe 2.6?). Are there any reasons why this has not been implemented yet? It would make Zope completely manageable through the web interface. -- Juergen Plasser plasser(a)hexagon.at
