Critical Question for Dieter - Testing with <dtml-in Catalog>
by Michael 15 May '02

15 May '02

First of all, I want to thank you for all of your help in the past. Every question of mine you have responded to has been right on target. I am trying to put up a site, was counting on Zope as a solution, am out of money, behind schedule, have posted this question before and got no response, can not find any documentation, and do not have the money to hire Zope Corp consultants to help fix it. I'm mortgagedto the hilt, and if I can't find a solution, I'm history. I have a new account form which can be filled out on line. I'm auto-generating a unique id in my product class by : <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('ts', ZopeTime())"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('id',_.str(_.int(ts)))"> <dtml-with "candidate_info_entry.createInObjectManager(REQUEST['id'], REQUEST)"> ---(from the web tutorial) I'm trying to keep people from entering some of the same information twice such as email address. (I am using their email address as their username for login, since it is unique) I need to be able to test the Catalog to see if the username is already indexed, and if so, raise a message that that username is already on file. I've tried : <dtml-in Catalog> <dtml-if "_['username'] == _['sequence-item']"> <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect('/duplicate_record')"> <dtml-else> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('username', username)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('password', password)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('password_confirm', password_confirm)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('user_hint', user_hint)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('user_fname', user_fname)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('user_lname', user_lname)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('user_email', user_email)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('user_city', user_city)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('user_state', user_state)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('user_province', user_province)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('user_country', user_country)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('title', user_fname+' - '+user_lname+' -'+user_email)"> <dtml-with "manage_addProduct['CandidateInfo']"> <dtml-call "candidate_info_entry_add(_.None, _, NoRedir=1)"> </dtml-with> I've tried many other possibilitiesas well, but it just blows past and enters the record anyway. I also tried setting the email address as the id and then do a "try and except", but that doesn't work either Do you know a possible solution to this, or where I could find some documentation on it? I'm desperate. Thanks in Advance, Michael

calling 'manage_copyObjects' and 'manage_pasteObjects' in a loop
by Jean Jordaan 15 May '02

15 May '02

Hi all This is just a inconclusive report, in case someone else has seen something similar. While moving from racks to remoteracks, I used this code: for dm in datamanagers: specialist = specialists[dm] rack = specialist.defaultRack remote_rack = specialist.Rack ids = rack.objectIds() copy_cookie = rack.manage_copyObjects(ids) remote_rack.manage_pasteObjects(copy_cookie) Just after running it, I got a bunch of these errors in my log, when trying to view the remoteracks: ------ 2002-05-14T14:56:50 ERROR(200) ZODB Couldn't load state for '\x00\x00\x00\x00\x0 0\x04g[' Traceback (innermost last): File /usr/local/zope/2-4-3/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py, line 519, in setstat e File /usr/local/zope/2-4-3_for_diepdink/lib/python/ZODB/FileStorage.py, line 5 88, in load (Object: /home/httpd/zope-instances/jean/creme.dev/var/Data.fs) File /usr/local/zope/2-4-3_for_diepdink/lib/python/ZODB/FileStorage.py, line 5 64, in _load (Object: /home/httpd/zope-instances/jean/creme.dev/var/Data.fs) KeyError: ^@^@^@^@^@^Dg[ I couldn't undo the transaction (since I'd inadvertently deleted some of the copied objects by refreshing a view where I'd previously deleted them). I recovered by truncating Data.fs to before the last big transaction (i.e. transaction which touched a lot of objects, as shown by 'fsrecover.py -v2' -- it would be nice if -v was even more verbose about the transactions.) I repeated the copy script just now, and it worked without a hitch. Does anyone know any way the above snippet could trigger those KeyErrors? -- Jean Jordaan Upfront Systems http://www.upfrontsystems.co.za

Help- windows authentication advice needed
by Kelley, Sean 14 May '02

14 May '02

Hi, I have posted a few messages about windows domain level security and zope. I have gotten maybe one no-so-helpful response. I don't know if people don't know or I am forming my question wrong. Here goes another try. background: I am somewhat familiar with basic zope use and canned product installs with good docs but no guru and not familiar with python I want to: build a zope intranet which checks to see what windows group someone belongs to before they can do certain things- aka only my department users can view and add stuff. be able to allow my department users to use intranet without joining (CMF requires one to join for some things) while blocking other departments- this can be differentiated with windows group memberships What I have done so far: installed jcNTUserFolder-0.2.2 but all I could list was the users on local machine that Zope was installed on (not the domain users or groups) I also tried another product which worked with jcNTUserFolder and that claimed to get NT groups also but it broke my basic zope security because it was replacing files at the root zope level (I guess it hacked the main zope security files) I am running: windows 2000 (with some NT users) zope 2.5.1 CMF 1.3b (i may chuck this though if I cannot get the authentication to work well) Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Products, how-tos, code examples... Sean

Zope 2.5.1 installation problems (zope dumping core)
by Malcolm E Davis 14 May '02

14 May '02

I have downloaded Zope 2.5.1 both as the source distribution and as the linux distribution. I have installed the source distribution onto an SGI running IRIX 6.5 (running python2 w_pcgi.py and then start) and installed the linux distribution onto a Linux box running RedHat 6.2 (running the install script and then start). In both cases, I can connect to http://hostname:8080/, login with the initial admin account, and get the initial index page with no difficulty. However, if I select the link to the Zope Management Interface, I get the three frames, but only the top one fills with anything. I get two "Document contains no data" dialogs. When I check the server it has dumped core and the shell window indicates that the server has restarted. No error messages are apparent in either the shell window or the var/Z2.log file. Since I have exactly the same problem in two completely different installs, but can find no similar complaints in the mail archives, I suspect I am doing some so completely newbie mistake that no one even mentions it. However, I am clearly stumped and would appreciate some help. As an additional data point, I actually tried the Zope 2.5.0 install on the SGI box as well. I had a similar problem, although then I did get the lower right frame and could perform some of the tasks. However, I wasn't able to get it to add the Zope Tutorial. Again the symptoms on the server side were core dumps with no apparent error messages in the logs. Finally, just for the record, I have tested this with Netscape 4.79 on the SGI, as well as Netscape 4.72 and 6.2 under Windows NT. Same problem with each. So it does not appear to be a browser problem. (Actually if some browser problem could crash the server, that would be rather scary anyway.) Thanks, Malcolm

RE: [Zope] Locked out of Zope!

I came in on the middle of this discussion, but in a similar situation I used zpasswd: Python zpasswd -u NewUser -p Password access It will ask for domains, which you can ignore. --Adam -----Original Message----- From: Richard McKinley [mailto:richard_mckinley@hotmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 6:32 AM To: zope(a)zope.org Subject: Re: [Zope] Locked out of Zope! Thanks to everyones whos given me feedback on this so far.. I've studied your advice for creating an emergency user in the initfile, then restarted zope. Unfortunately the user/password is not recognised. I've tried this multiple times, rebooting the machine, restarting the machine, made sure zope was not running when the password was changed etc. Is there anything I've missed out? Does the emergency user only have access to specific directories or can I log in to the root localhost:8080/manage with it? Is it possible to use the tranalyser to edit the data.fs to reverse the action of encrypting user passwords or am I wasting my time?

RE: [Zope] Zope logging

Tim, Thanks! I was thinking of front-ending Zope with Squid, rather than Apache. Or would it be a stupid thing to use both?

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions. Webalizer seems nice, except that it looks like it needs LocalFS to be able to publish it back in Zope. LocalFS seems to be development software with known security issues, which makes it unsuitable for my purposes. Or is this impression mistaken? Is Zope + Webalizer + LocalFS going to be fine to use, or are there any other products that have been constructed that might work instead (ie, ExternalFile, although I haven't seen directions for use with, say, Webalizer)?

Inner ZClasses
by Gilles Lenfant 14 May '02

14 May '02

Hi, I made a container ZClass (called "Main") inheriting from ZObjectManager I made another ZClass (called "Sub") "Main" objects may contain only "Sub" objects that have no sense when outside of a "Main" object. But the "Add" drop box in the ZMI folder content panel shows "Sub" meta_type. And "Sub" objects in a folder have no sense. How can I remove this "Sub" from the "Add" drop box ? Thanks in advance. --Gilles
