Zope.org maintenance update afternoon EST
by Brian Lloyd 12 Sep '03

12 Sep '03

Hi all - I will be doing some maintenance on the zope.org database, packing it and performing a reindex to get rid of some duplicate search results that we've been seeing. There should be little to no interruption of service, but the pack / reindex / replace will take an hour or so. Please avoid adding new content to the site for this afternoon (EST), as I may need to take a copy of the db to do these operations in order to avoid impacting performance on the main site. thanks, Brian Lloyd brian(a)zope.com V.P.

>I looked at your JMZPTMacros product, and I cannot find any code, that uses >the solution you presented. Sorry, I forgot to mention that the JMZPTMacros are used by my JMBoring Product. On the JMBoring class you will see: #loads my default add form manage_addJMBoringForm=PageTemplateFile('zpt/JMBoring_Add',globals()) #The Kind attribute is passed to the page template manage_addJMBoringForm.Kind='JMBoring' Then on my generic_add template (from JMZPTMacros) I do this: <h1 tal:define="pageTitle python:here.manage_form_title(here, request,form_title='Add %s' % template.Kind, help_product=template.Kind,help_topic=template.Kind+'_Add.stx')" tal:replace="structure pageTitle">Add myClass </h1> I use the syntax template.Kind because I'm using it inside a python expresion. But, as Chris said, for you it would be enough to say template/Kind or whatever you want.

MAILBOXER questions
by Paul Resnikoff 12 Sep '03

12 Sep '03

I have successfully started using Mailboxer in a Zope installation, but am having great difficulty customizing the email messages that are sent to users when they subscribe, unsubscribe, or do other actions. I thought that I would be able to easily alter some DTML documents, but they seem hidden somewhere. For example: After a user subscribes, they get this message which I cannot seem to alter: "Hi! This is the ezmlm program. I'm managing the example(a)example.com mailing list. I'm working for my owner, who can be reached at example-owner(a)example.com. Acknowledgment: I have added the address paul(a)example.com to the interviews mailing list." Has anyone run into the same problem?

External Editor stopped working for me
by Roger Fisher 12 Sep '03

12 Sep '03

I love the External Editor product - it's worked flawlessly on a Win98 system. I just moved to a Win/XP system. External Editor worked for about a week, but now for some reason always fails with: FATAL ERROR: {Errno 1] No such file or directory: C:\\Documents and Settings\\Roger\\Local Settings\\Temporary Internet Files\\Content.IE5\\mumble\object[1].zope I'm wondering why this worked for awhile, and now stopped. And for some reason, my actual directory structure now includes ...\Local Settings\Temp\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5 Not sure how the extra Temp got in there, or how to circumvent it. Thanks for any advice.

Think this was meant for the list... -------- Original Message -------- Subject: RE: SV: [Zope] Adding attributes to PageTemplateFile Date: Fri, 12 Sep 2003 15:51:02 +0200 From: volker.wend(a)efgbsh.de To: chrisw(a)nipltd.com He folks, I have a similar Problem: I want to add a selection attribute to a 'normal' Page Template. This doesn't work either. I add an attribute called "mytest" with type "selection" and value "getImages", getImages is a Python script that returns all Images in the current folder. getImages: return [''] + context.objectIds(['Image','Photo']) The error message: Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource. Error Type: TypeError Error Value: can only concatenate list (not "tuple") to list If I add the attribute with a script, I get the error when I try to display the property page. Any Ideas ?

Mailboxer / Qmail Question
by Paul Resnikoff 12 Sep '03

12 Sep '03

Hi, My zope hosting provider helped me set up Mailboxer with Qmail in Zope to send a bulk mailing list. Problem is, I cannot seem to add multiple email addresses. Qmail allows me to add one email at a time. In my Zope instance, the 'properties' tab of my Mailboxer install does have a 'maillist' update option, but I cannot get it to speak with qmail. Any mail pros out there that can address this issue? Paul ____________________________________________________________________
