How to edit manage_page_footer?
by Joshua Newman 10 Apr '02

10 Apr '02

How can I put a button or a link that allows a newbie manager to return to the site from the management interface? I tried adding my own 'manage_page_footer' to the subdirectory, but zope won't let me do that. Any ideas? Joshua

One of our guys modified its python code to change the regular expressions. regex is not supported in Python 2 and so had to be converted by hand. When that was done, its been working like a champ. -----Original Message----- From: Christof Lindenbeck [mailto:linde@webgis.de] Sent: Wednesday, April 10, 2002 10:39 AM To: zope(a)zope.org Subject: [Zope] LocalFS broken?

dtml-in SQL, results display
by Alexander Batzios 10 Apr '02

10 Apr '02

Hi. Thanks for the pointers in my previous question. After I knew what to search for, I looked up several Zope docs and did what I wanted. However, I would like to ask some more questions: I have the following statement: <dtml-in searchField> OR FirstNameMI like <dtml-sqlvar sequence-item type="string"> OR LastName like <dtml-sqlvar sequence-item type="string"> </dtml-in> Where searchField is returned as searchField:tokens. So far so good. I want to put % in front, and after every keyword. So I try something like: FirstNameMI like <dtml-sqlvar expr='%'+sequence-item+'%' type="string"> However, because now I use an assignment operator for an expression, Zope takes sequence-item as two separate things, sequence minus item. Is there a way to work around this? I tried everything I could think of, but still the same. I would like to avoid having to use a simple dtml-var because I read in the docs that it's better for security this way (e.g. someone can't write DELETE * FROM tableName in the query). My final question, is regarding the previous, next results navigation options. (e.g. Previous 5 results, or Next 5 results). How can I have these two side by side? It seems that if I take the previous results link from the top and put it at the bottom, it doesn't appear, because there are some <dtml-if> statements before. Thanks in advance, Alex

Zope and IIS
by Igor Leturia 10 Apr '02

10 Apr '02

Hi all! I've got Zope installed on a Win2K Server. In that same server I've got IIS installed, which I can't uninstall because I need it for mail and other services, and IIS takes port 80. So now when I want to enter into Zope I have to write 'localhost:8080', and if I just write 'localhost' I get into IIS. I need an easy redirection of some kind that will allow me to get into IIS with 'localhost' and into Zope with 'localhost/zope' or 'zope.localhost', without the ':8080'. I've searched in zope.org, and I've tried two approaches: - http://www.zope.org/Members/brianh/iis_howto : I couldn't get it to work, and besides I've read that using pcgi makes the system unstable. - http://www.zope.org/Members/andym/ASP404 : I couldn't get it to work, and besides the author says it doesn't work in all situations. I'm quite desperate, I need this urgently! It's not just that the ':8080' makes the adress ugly, it's also that the website cannot be accessed from many companies where they've got a firewall that blocks access to the outside from any port different to 80. I've also heard something about 'rewrite rules', 'virtual host monsters', 'redirections', but I know nothing about them. So, can anyone help me do this easily? Thanks in advance, Igor Leturia

RE: [Zope] Session Mgmt. with Session Id Manager
by Schmidt, Allen J. 10 Apr '02

10 Apr '02

Nice, but not very helpful I found. A simple HowTo would have helped more. We have been using SQLSession for a while and its been working well but we feel there may be issues with Squid and ZEO and many ZEO clients on different boxes. And, se figured since the new Sessioning stuff is built in, maybe now is a good time to switch. So, the questions: Which of the session-type things need to be added where? Data Managers, ID managers, Transient containers?? In SQLSession, I *dtml-call Session* at the top of every page that will use sessions (in standard_header) and then use *dtml-call SESSION.set(name,value)* and *dtml-var SESSION['name']* whenever I want to set or get something from the session. Does anyone have specifics on how to do this simplest of things with the new Sessioning tools?

Cookie Authentication problem (__ac)
by Marc O. Sandlus 10 Apr '02

10 Apr '02

Hello, Zope's cookie authentication does not work with Zope running "behind" apache, while it works when Zope gets accessed directly. Zope is running on port 9673, apache on port 80, with this RewriteRule in httpd.conf and a VirtualHostMonster in Zope's root directory: RewriteRule ^/mydir(.*) http://localhost:9673/VirtualHostBase/http/myserver:80/mydir$1 [P] So Authentication works if I use the following "direct" access method of Zope's Login Form: http://myserver:9673/mydir/login_form while this doesn't work: http://myserver/mydir/login_form What "doesn't work" means: In both cases I get a positive response from Zope (Authentication succeeded) after posting the login form. However, in the latter case the authenticated user becomes the "Anonymous User" again when I load a different URL, which basically means that authentication doesn't took place. What I found out is that the cookie "__ac" doesn't get set in the latter case, while the cookie "__ac_name" gets set in both cases. That's weird and I wonder if anybody could explain why. Thanks in advance, Marc
