Oh heck, I'm sorry Paul -- I thought Andy was still the authoritative owner of ZSyncer, and he mentioned he wasn't working on it much anymore.

That would be amazingly nice.

RevisionManager
by Robert Jean 12 Aug '03

12 Aug '03

Hello, I have a question regarding RevisionManager version 1.3.2. Here is my configuration: CVSNT version 2.0.8 is installed on a Windows XP server (server01.mycompany.com) CVSNT version 2.0.8 is installed on a Windows XP workstation (c01.mycompany.com) I can use the CVS repository hosted by server01 from c01 in a DOS prompt: >set cvsroot=:pserver:robert@server01.mycompany.com:/test >cvs login ... (enter password) ... >cvs checkout yoyo/rdir/myfile.htm And the file gets checked out. I instantiated a RevisionManager in a Zope instance hosted by c01: Server address: server01.mycompany.com Repository path: c:\cvsrepo (this is the path on server01 � is it correct?) Module name: test Access method: pserver Username: robert Password: mypassword CVS executable: �c:\program files\cvsnt\cvs.exe� RSH exec: (* not set *) Compression level: 3 Include ZODB history: yes Debug mode: unchecked I had to create a directory c:\tmp to instantiate a RevisionManager. Before doing that, I got errors. I deleted the original RevisionManager and re-created a brand new one. Everything looks fine. I can add objects to my RevisionManager, and files get created in c:\program files\myzope\var\RevisionManager\temp\test together with �.properties� files. But now, it looks like that I cannot create or check in files in my repository hosted by server01. I have no error, but nothing happens. There are 2 things that bother me: 1) I haven�t created an explicit home directory for the user running Zope (username Owner � it is a privileged user who has full control over the machine). Is it something I should do? If yes, how to do it? 2) I am a bit confused by this repository path... is it on the server (server01) or on the client (c01)? Thank you very much for your help, Robert __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free, easy-to-use web site design software http://sitebuilder.yahoo.com

Folder name from URL etc.
by Samir Mishra 12 Aug '03

12 Aug '03

Hello all, How do I go from a URL to an object name? I have acl_users folders defined at different levels and I would like to use AUTHENTICATION_PATH to find out what level a user has authorization up to. At each folder level I have a 'Messages' folder and I'd like to display the contents of the correct folder depending on the users' clearance/home folder. TIA. Regards, Samir

Synchronizing Two (Disparate) Zope Installations
by Roy Rapoport 12 Aug '03

12 Aug '03

We'd love some sort of capability for comparing a directory (and all its contents and their contents etc) on one zope server with the same-named directory at a different path on a different Zope server -- in other words: http://server1/path1/to/RootDirectory vs. http://server2/path2/to/the/RootDirectory And ideally also easily synchronize them. ZSyncer, which is no longer in very active development, requires the directory path to be the same. Is there another product we might be able to use?

Can't build resource file for PCGI on Zope 2.7b1
by Aguido Horatio Davis 12 Aug '03

12 Aug '03

G'day, I am installing Zope on a server whose only Python is 2.3 and which is already running Apache on port 80. Port 80 is the only one that is permitted through our local firewalls, a small but significant percentage of the audience are outside the firewall, and the system administrator (who isn't me) refuses point-blank to permit the use of mod_fastcgi or mod_proxy. So I'm trying to build Zope 2.7b1 with PCGI support. When the dust settles on the "make build; make install" there is no Zope.cgi to be seen. The file doc/WEBSERVERS.txt has the intriguing sentence: To install PCGI, please get the PCGI support package from XXX, and read the pcgi/README.txt file from that package. and then blithely describes what to do once you _have_ a Zope.cgi file to play with. Can anybody point me at the mysterious XXX, or failing that, tell me how to coerce Zope 2.7 into coughing up a Zope.cgi file? Cheers, Horatio

inaccessible objects in my zope.org members folder
by Sean Gillies 11 Aug '03

11 Aug '03

Am trying to update the content of my member folder. On the old zope.org I had created a DTML Document named 'index_html'. This is still hanging around but I can't find a way to edit it through the new zope.org site. It doesn't appear in the folder contents. Will it have to be manually removed from the ZODB?
