Zope FTP/WebDav questions
by pskipworth＠touchcorp.com 26 Feb '03

26 Feb '03

Hi all, Couple of questions... 1. Trying to access Zope's source WebDav port using Web Folders in Windows 2000 results in a windows 2000 error box coming up entitled "RUNDLL : An exception occurred while trying to run "C:\WINNT\System32\netplwiz.dll,AddNetPlaceRunDll". I've tried this from various computers within our office and get the same error each time. I'm running Zope 2-6-0, and have enabled the webdav port when starting Zope. Any ideas ? 2. Suppose I have a folder hierarchy set up as follows.. / | | +-- /folder1 for hostmonster 'a' | +-- /folder2 for hostmonster 'b' '/' contains a standard aclFolder, and 'folder1' contains another acl folder (in my case, a mysqlUserFolder). If I FTP into my Zope server, I assume the FTP username and password I used are auth'd against the aclFolder in '/'. However, I have a user who needs to FTP into 'folder1' to change content for his virtual host - his username and password are stored in the mySQLUserFolder within folder1. How do I tell the FTP server to authenticate against my nested userFolder ?

A quick reading of the patent and its claims, 6,505,212, shows that there is a substantial amoount of uncited prior art dating before the priority date (Feb 1998). The ignored literature includes SCCS, RCS, CVS, and a myrid of other products. A careful analysis of the patent in the light of the prior art would be needed to determine whether it was anticipated in the art and therefore, potentially invalid. Invalidating the patent would take litigation and deep pockets.

Re: [Zope] Newbie: dtml-tree

Where are these ZPT examples that you mention? In the Zope installation or on the Zope site? I've looked in both, and I haven't been able to find any, although I realise its probably me being blind! >From what I've read about ZTUtils, its all template-based. Does anyone have a solution thats DTML-based, or some good template-based examples?

Nowadays, I would use the tree support in "ZTUtils". It gives you much better control than "dtml-tree". For examples, look at the ZPT examples.

Zope hurt by Interwoven patent?
by Marcin Kasperski 25 Feb '03

25 Feb '03

Does anyone know whether (and how) Zope itself and Zope users can have problems with the new Interwoven patent? http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/02/25/1736237 Crucial part: The claims include, 'The use of a hierarchical file system and an object repository for representing and hosting content and its structure,' and 'The combined concepts of file history, versioning, comparison, and merging as it relates to content, provide an archive of all individual changes as well as collections of changes so they can be versioned and audited.'

Looping in DTML
by Flavio 25 Feb '03

25 Feb '03

Hi, I would like to know if someone can help me with this one. I need to loop by a set of variables so I can insert then into my database. I started looking at the following example: <dtml-in "16,21,3,49"> item# <dtml-var sequence-index>,<dtml-var sequence-number> = <dtml-var sequence-item> </dtml-in> and it's output item# 0,1 = 16 item# 1,2 = 21 item# 2,3 = 3 item# 3,4 = 49 So.. I changed the <dtml-in> tag by repalcing the fixed values with one of my variables. It did worg fine : <dtml-in description> <dtml-var sequence-item> </dtml-in> The problem is that I need more than one column per line of data E.G. <dtml-in (ordnumber,description)> <dtm-var sequence-item> </dtml-in> output 01 Freight 02 Delivery Is there a way I can do that ? thanks, Flavio --- Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com) Version: 6.0.458 / Virus Database: 257 - Release Date: 2/24/2003

Logging authenticated users with Apache & Zope
by Ralph vd Houdt 25 Feb '03

25 Feb '03

Hi All, I'm trying to create statistics from a website the runs on Zope behind Apache. * When I use the logfiles from apache te create the statistics I'm missing the authenticated users, the are not defined in the apache logs, they are available in the Z2.log * When I use the Z2.logfile I'm missing the remote IP-adresses, because it only logs the IP-adres of the local apache installation. Does anyone has a solution to this problem? Greetings Ralph
