upload file from filename
by John Hunter 03 Mar '02

03 Mar '02

>From a Python Script, given a string which is a filename on the local filesystem, say, thisFile = 'C:\\ProgramFiles\\SomeDir\\somefile.dat' How can I upload this to the zope filesystem? I naively tried: folder.manage_addFile(id='somefile.dat', file=thisFile ) But of course this created a file somefile.dat with contents 'somefile.dat' because the 'file' argument contains the content, not the name, of the file. Any suggestions? Thanks, John Hunter

Installing LoginManager with Zope 2.5 and ZPatterns 0-4-3 beta2
by Ross Balmer 03 Mar '02

03 Mar '02

Hi, I've been trying to install LoginManager (version 0.8.8 beta 1, and then version 0.8.6, ie: the last non-beta) on Zope 2.5 with ZPatterns 0.4.3 Beta 2 on Windows 2000. LoginManager shows up as a broken product. Here's the traceback I've been getting: Traceback (most recent call last): File "D:\Zope\lib\python\OFS\Application.py", line 531, in import_product product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly) File "D:\Zope\lib\python\Products\LoginManager\__init__.py", line 1, in ? import LoginManager, LoginMethods, UserSources File "D:\Zope\lib\python\Products\LoginManager\LoginManager.py", line 7, in ? from Products.ZPatterns.PlugIns import PlugInGroup File "D:\Zope\lib\python\Products\ZPatterns\__init__.py", line 1, in ? import Rack, Specialists, Customizers, AttributeProviders, SheetProviders File "D:\Zope\lib\python\Products\ZPatterns\Rack.py", line 1, in ? from DataManagers import DataManager File "D:\Zope\lib\python\Products\ZPatterns\DataManagers.py", line 6, in ? from AttributeProviders import AttributeProvider File "D:\Zope\lib\python\Products\ZPatterns\AttributeProviders.py", line 7, in ? from Expressions import * File "D:\Zope\lib\python\Products\ZPatterns\Expressions.py", line 38, in ? from DocumentTemplate.DT_Util import Eval, expr_globals, TemplateDict, \ ImportError: cannot import name expr_globals Does anyone know of a fix, or failing that a stable combination of LoginManager and ZPatterns which runs on Zope 2.5? Thanks Ross

Apache virtual hosts and Zope on port 80...
by addyd＠unk.edu 03 Mar '02

03 Mar '02

I am attempting to install Zope on a remote server that I have root access to. The server is behind a firewall. Therefore I need the Zope content to be handled by Apache through port 80 in order for anyone to see it, including me. This apache has numerous virtual hosts set up, only ONE of which I need some Zope content for. Zope was installed from source at /usr/local/zope The various virtual hosts are at: /usr/local/apache/htdocs/hostone.com/ /usr/local/apache/htdocs/hostone.com/ I was planning on following the instructions at doc/WEBSERVER.txt for using Zope.cgi (pcgi), but the examples all said to then connect with http://hostone.com:8998/cgi-bin/Zope.cgi/manage I can't see if it is working due to the firewall and need it passed on port 80. Is there anyway to do this? I have not yet run the "z2.py -p" due to this question. Thanks in advance for any replies.

Netscape 6.2.1 + Zwiki + Permissions
by Heimo Laukkanen 03 Mar '02

03 Mar '02

Hi all, I noticed funny behaviour with Netscape 6.2.1 which differs from any other browser ( for example Netscape 4.7 or IE 6 ). I was authenticated into my zope in a directory foo with a manager role. When I created a Zwiki web into the root folder, where anonymous had rigths to access the Zwiki. I was stumped when I ( with my authenticated browser in foo-folder ) moved into the Zwiki-folder and while viewing the pages had no rigths to modify or comment anything. More over it was strange, since the same thing worked with IE6 and Netscape 4.7 - and I could do whatever I wanted from the management view. Has anyone else seen the same behaviour? -huima

Bug in dtml-calendar 1.0.12 (Stable)
by Heimo Laukkanen 03 Mar '02

03 Mar '02

Hi, I just noticed that dtml-calendar tag shows calendar wrong , if you set set weekdays to 15 in month mode. What it is supposed to do, is draw the calendar with only the weekdays present -- which it actually does -- but it just jumps over weekends. Meaning today is 2 nd of March saturday, but the calendar shows it as a monday. <dtml-calendar controls=no modes="month" bgcolor="#DDDDDD" lang=fi weekdays="15" tablewidth=200> ... </dtml-calendar> If you set weekdays to 17 everything works just fine. Has anyone else seen the same behaviour? -huima

How to use getitem in this situation
by Heimo Laukkanen 03 Mar '02

03 Mar '02

Hi all, had just a funny situation to which I didin't quite get the solution I wanted. My folder structure: root -- happenings + 2002-01-01 ( file ) + 2002-01-02 ( file ) Now in the root folder I had a dtml-document, in which a script wanted to fetch a title of one of those files in happenings folder. Id of the file was constructed into a variable x. Of course I solved the problem with <dtml-with happening> <dtml-var _.getitem(x).title></dtml-with>, but was left wondering was there other ways of doing this? In Python or PythonScript I would have needed getattr, rigth? -huima

setPermissionDefault
by Sidnei da Silva 02 Mar '02

02 Mar '02

Im trying to implement some default permissions on a product, which subclasses RoleManager, Folder, and CatalogAware. Defined some custom roles with: security = ClassSecurityInfo() __ac_roles__ = ('CustomRole1', 'CustomRole2') a method: security.declareProtected('APermission', 'mymethod') def mymethod(self, request): .... and a default Permission to CustomRole security.setPermissionDefault('APermission', ('CustomRole1', )) The roles show up on the Security tab, but when i try to check if a user with a role 'CustomRole1' has 'APermission', with: SecurityManagement.getSecurityManager().checkPermission('APermission', self) it always return None. If i go to the security tab and check 'APermission' for the role 'CustomRole1' it works, and checkPermission returns 1. I dont know what is wrong here, but if someone can help me, i will be very pleased. Thank you. []'s -- Sidnei da Silva X3ng Web Technology sidnei(a)x3ng.com.br
