Tracker and Scheduler
by Oliver Pabst 03 May '02

03 May '02

Hi Zope folks, as I saw in the Tracker source, it should be possible to trigger the execute_rules method to tell the Tracker to resend old Tracker issues to the supporters to alert them. Does someone know who you can trigger this with a cron job or so? -- --- --- Oliver Pabst .-------------------------. mailto:olpa@sybcom.de : : phone :+49 681 56600600 : project department : SYBCOM GmbH fax :+49 681 56600660 : : http://www.sybcom.de

What use is BTrees ???
by Max M 03 May '02

03 May '02

I am unshure on how BTrees works, but I suspect that they might be usefull in a project I am doing, so I thought I might ask here. I have an object which hase a dict as an attribute, in which I store other objects. I know this is a relative expensive way to do it as everytime an object is added to the dict the full object will be stored in the ZODB. As far as I understand, the BTree is like a dict. So do I understand it right that if I use a BTree as a attribute instead of a dict, it will only store the elements that are added/changed in the ZODB but otherwise act as a dict? I use integers as keys in the dict regards Max M

whois
by Ulrich Wisser 03 May '02

03 May '02

Hello, I downloaded and installed the whoistool from zope.org. After some little tweaking I got it working. But one problem is left and I believe it is a more general one. The Tag looks like this <dtml-whois "'domain.com'"> or <dtml-whois "'domain.com'" server=whois.internic.net> My problem is the server part. I need to set the server programatically. Means I want to call a DTML Document like this http://zope.org/showwhois?domain=company.com&server=whois.corenic.com I wrote the Tag as follows: <dtml-whois domain server=server> But that doesn't work. The server variable is not evealuated. Instead whois tries to look for 'server' which is not really what I intended. How can I make Zope load the whois Module in it's namespace? In that case I could say <dtml-var "_.whois.Whois(domain,server)"> Which would be perfect to me.

Re: [Zope] change password
by oliver.erlewein＠sqs.de 03 May '02

03 May '02

Hi Bill Make a DTML or Python function, which changes the password (see API reference in THE ZOPE BOOK) and then give the function a Proxy Role that has a role that can "Manage Users". You can use the Manager role for testing but I'd advise to make a specialized role. Regards Oliver Erlewein

ZmailIn
by David Kyte 03 May '02

03 May '02

Hi, Wonder if you can help me. Using ZmailIn - zope 2.3.0 ZmailIn.1.0.0 linux redhat 6.2 The email appears to get into zope by the look of the traceback, but fails for some reason. /zm1 is the MailClient and it executes a python script doMail. Currently this does absolutley nothing - it was trying to create a dtml document.

add instance of ZClass as authenticated user
by John Hunter 03 May '02

03 May '02

I have a Product called Course which contains a ZClass called ProjectSubmission (which resides in /Control_Panel/Products/Course). I want authenticated users to be able to add ProectSubmission instances. I have a web form that calls ProjectSubmission_add_py: REQUEST = container.REQUEST RESPONSE = REQUEST.RESPONSE pid = REQUEST.get('project_id') submission = context.ProjectSubmission.createInObjectManager(pid, REQUEST) submission.manage_addFile(id='',file=file_data) submission.manage_addFolder(id='Comments') submission.Comments.manage_addProperty('next_id', 0, 'int') propSheet = submission.propertysheets.ProjectSubmissionPropertySheet propSheet.manage_changeProperties(REQUEST) propSheet.manage_changeProperties(file_name=file_data.filename) propSheet.manage_changeProperties(submission_date=DateTime()) REQUEST.RESPONSE.redirect(submission.absolute_url()) This works fine if the user has manager/owner permissions at root level, but I want it to work for a user that is simply authenticated at the container level. If I try and execute the script simply as an authenticated user at container level, I get the error: Error Type: AttributeError Error Value: ProjectSubmission Could someone advise me on how I should can change the script and/or the ProjectSubmission and Course properties and security settings so that authenticated users can add PrjectSubmissions Thanks, John Hunter

passing request variables in zope
by Russell Uman 02 May '02

02 May '02

howdy. i've been passing some variables through the url <a href=http://mysite.com/index_html?newvar=chocolate>link</a> and then accessing the request namespace in the target page my favorite ice cream is vanilla i would like to pass this variable without cluttering up the url. i know that i could also use cookies, or sessions, or a form to pass this variable. is there any other way i could pass this variable? i guess i would like to be able to create POST variables by hand and then send them off to the next page, whatever page that is. is this what the response object is for? am i just being really boneheaded? thanks...
