Dear List, I have been getting problem with the Login Manager. On Saturday it was worked fine. Today I started the system it was not working. The below is Traceback of the Login Manager. Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/Zope-2.6.1b1-src/lib/python/OFS/Application.py", line 541, in import_product File "/var/zope/Products/LoginManager/__init__.py", line 1, in ? import LoginManager, LoginMethods, UserSources File "/var/zope/Products/LoginManager/LoginManager.py", line 8, in ? from Products.ZPatterns.Specialists import Specialist File "/var/zope/Products/ZPatterns/__init__.py", line 1, in ? import Rack, Specialists, Customizers, AttributeProviders, SheetProviders File "/var/zope/Products/ZPatterns/Rack.py", line 1, in ? from DataManagers import DataManager File "/var/zope/Products/ZPatterns/DataManagers.py", line 6, in ? from AttributeProviders import AttributeProvider File "/var/zope/Products/ZPatterns/AttributeProviders.py", line 7, in ? from Expressions import * File "/var/zope/Products/ZPatterns/Expressions.py", line 38, in ? from DocumentTemplate.DT_Util import Eval, expr_globals, TemplateDict, \ ImportError: cannot import name expr_globals -- Thanks & Regards Praveen Kumar SoftPro Systems Ltd

Sure could be, but your traceback should make it clear what object is throwing the exception. In case you didn't already know, the last 20 or so tracebacks are stored in the error_log object in the ZMI root. > > Should it maybe be a dtml-let using a python script to set the ip_add_flag value? I'm not aware of any reason that would make a difference... but if you want to give it a try, I'm sure it couldn't hurt. Troubleshooting DTML can sometimes be a pain since you rarely get useful information on what line the error occurs on. Often, isolating the error requires whittling down your assumptions. For example, give any scripts you call a new name and replace them with "dummy" objects that return a single, correctly-formatted value. Try one at a time. When doing this makes a difference in what error you get back, you've probably found at least one source of the problem. Sorry I can't be any more insightful than that. It's not obvious (to me) what the source of your problem is here. Unless someone else has the answer, I would expect that you've got some debugging to do. HTH, Dylan

Display new object without redirect
by Ken 29 Sep '03

29 Sep '03

Hi all, I have a DTML method which generates objects (pages) by making 'expensive' queries to external databases. Right now, both Google and Altavista (Scooter) are indexing my site and I would like to take advantage of this to store the pages, using the DocumentLibrary product. I have method which looks for an object at the requested URL and if it can't be found, creates the object, catalogs it and displays it. However, the display of the newly-catalogued object is done through a redirect and I have read that this is 'bad' for the search engines. I have not been able to display the new object any other way; it is not yet found in the Catalog (DocumentStore). It only works with redirection or by refreshing the page manually. How can I refer to the new object and display it after calling <dtml-call expr="addDocumentFile(REQUEST=REQUEST)">? Thanks for helping me to solve this quickly! Ken

Doing authentification on my own
by Florian Lindner 29 Sep '03

29 Sep '03

Hello, I want to do authentification whithout a userfolder. It should work like this: The login credentials are submitted from a form to a script. This script looks up the user data in a SQL-database and redirect to a login-failed page if the form-data is wrong. If the form-data is right is constructs a userObject and redirects a a loginok page or to $destination. Problems: - Constructing a userObject? How to do that? How to make it clear to Zope that this session is authentificated? Is this done with the construction of the userObjekt? - How to define the login-page to which Zope redirects if a anon-user tries to access protected content? The requested URL should be passed as a parameter ($destination) to the login-page. Is this possible? Thanks, Florian

ExternalEditor plugin for MS Project?
by Larry J. C. Prikockis 29 Sep '03

29 Sep '03

I'm wondering if anyone's hacked together an External Editor plugin for Microsoft Project... From looking at the code for the Word, Excel, etc. plugins, it doesn't seem to be too complex. However- my knowledge of MSOffice COM scripting is even more tenuous than my knowledge of Python. As near as I can tell, Project seem to be a bit more of a unique beast than Word/Excel/Powerpoint. all clues appreciated- Larry
