Adding topic groups to PloneCollector/Edit Tab
by Nick Owen 08 Nov '04

08 Nov '04

Greetings once again. I think I'm getting very close here, but I have two more questions. First, there is no Edit tab on the PloneCollector main page, just 'contents' and 'debug'. As I read it from the FAQ in the docs folder, there should be an edit tab. Any ideas? Perhaps the question above will answer this: how do I add & edit topics for the topic groups?

Zope 2 -> Zope 3
by Pascal Peregrina 08 Nov '04

08 Nov '04

Hi all, I would like to know if now is already the right time to migrate a website that uses : + Zope 2.7 + CMF + TranslationService,Localizer + in-house Zope 2.7 products (extending CMF) ...to Zope 3. Is CMF already available for Zope 3 ? Is there any documentation for doing so ? Also, are there available benchmarks that compare out-of-the box Zope 3 performance compared to Zope 2 ? Thanks a lot.

I know they are completely incompatible (this is almost the first thing that is said on the Zope3 homepage). And that's why I am worried. Because if Zope 3 is the future of Zope, then at one point everyone will have to use it (and stop using Zope 2). I was asking if there was some documentation about "best way to rewrite zope2 extensions for zope3". Maybe I did not get you right : are you saying something like "they are so incompatible that there will never be a CMF product for Zope 3 ?"

Well, thanks for the answer... I had not understood that at all.

That's _different_. X3 is not compatible at all with 2. It is a waypoint on the roadmap to a non-X3 Zope 3 release which will be far more compatible with Zope 2. In other words, this is a purely experimental release featuring no compatibility capability. It is not meant to be "how Zope 3 will be." At least, that's my read of their statements. -roy _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope(a)zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ) ________________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star.

Zope Banner Advertising Manager?
by Shane Graber 08 Nov '04

08 Nov '04

Is there a banner advertising manager product for Zope? Currently we're using AdCycle (http://adcycle.com/) for our advertising banners. Now that we're moving toward Zope and Plone, we'd like to see if Zope has a product like AdCycle that we could use to manage 50-100 banner ads of various sizes. Is there a product for Zope that can do this? Shane

PloneCollectorNG issue/questions
by Nick Owen 08 Nov '04

08 Nov '04

Greetings. First, Zope and Plone look like excellent products. I look forward to using them and learning more about them. I have scoured the archives and google and haven't found what I'm looking for. Hopefully, someone here can help with some quick advice. I am looking for an issue tracker for us internally for bugtracking as well as for external users for support. I am leaning toward PloneCollectorNG, but I have some requirements that may be problematic: The users must log into the system via our two-factor authentication product. This is why I chose a zope-based product: the exuserfolder supports Radius. I can get exuserfolder working with WiKID via Radius and I can get PloneCollectorNG working without radius, but I can't get them both working at the same time. I'm guessing it has something to do with User management and groups. I can add issues, but I can't add staff. I am running on Fedora Core 2, with zope-2.7.2, plone-2.0.4 (installed via apt-get), exUserFolder-0_20_1, PloneCollectorNG-1.2.4. Here is the error I get: Traceback (innermost last): Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 101, in publish Module ZPublisher.mapply, line 88, in mapply Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 39, in call_object Module Shared.DC.Scripts.Bindings, line 306, in __call__ Module Shared.DC.Scripts.Bindings, line 343, in _bindAndExec Module Products.CMFCore.FSPageTemplate, line 191, in _exec Module Products.CMFCore.FSPageTemplate, line 124, in pt_render Module Products.PageTemplates.PageTemplate, line 96, in pt_render <FSPageTemplate at /test/test/pcng_staff used for /test/test/plonecollectorng.2004-11-05.6293294645> Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 189, in __call__ Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 233, in interpret Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 670, in do_useMacro Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 233, in interpret Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 408, in do_optTag_tal Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 393, in do_optTag Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 388, in no_tag Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 233, in interpret Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 701, in do_defineSlot Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 233, in interpret Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 408, in do_optTag_tal Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 393, in do_optTag Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 388, in no_tag Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 233, in interpret Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 649, in do_defineMacro Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 233, in interpret Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 693, in do_defineSlot Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 233, in interpret Module TAL.TALInterpreter, line 610, in do_loop_tal Module Products.PageTemplates.TALES, line 206, in setRepeat Module Products.PageTemplates.TALES, line 221, in evaluate Line 34, Column 8 Expression: <PythonExpr (('Assigned', here.getTrackerUsers(staff_only=1,with_groups=1)), ('Unassigned', here.getTrackerUsers(unassigned_only=1,with_groups=1)))> Names: {'container': <PloneSite instance at f5901350>, 'context': <PloneCollectorNG instance at f59017d0>, 'default': <Products.PageTemplates.TALES.Default instance at 0xf66d2a4c>, 'here': <PloneCollectorNG instance at f59017d0>, 'loop': <SafeMapping instance at f290a790>, 'modules': <Products.PageTemplates.ZRPythonExpr._SecureModuleImporter instance at 0xf666cccc>, 'nothing': None, 'options': {'args': ()}, 'repeat': <SafeMapping instance at f290a790>, 'request': <HTTPRequest, URL=http://65.182.34.70:8080/test/test/plonecollectorng.2004-11-05.6293294645/pcng_staff>, 'root': <Application instance at f5e3b470>, 'template': <FSPageTemplate at /test/test/pcng_staff used for /test/test/plonecollectorng.2004-11-05.6293294645>, 'traverse_subpath': [], 'user': nowen} Module Products.PageTemplates.ZRPythonExpr, line 47, in __call__ __traceback_info__: (('Assigned', here.getTrackerUsers(staff_only=1,with_groups=1)), ('Unassigned', here.getTrackerUsers(unassigned_only=1,with_groups=1))) Module Python expression "(('Assigned', here.getTrackerUsers(staff_only=1,with_groups=1)), ('Unassigned', here.getTrackerUsers(unassigned_only=1,with_groups=1)))", line 1, in <expression> Module Products.PloneCollectorNG.Collector, line 255, in getTrackerUsers TypeError: iteration over non-sequence Thanks in advance, any suggestions much appreciated.

Authentication Dialog comes again and again
by Eddy Ilg 07 Nov '04

07 Nov '04

Hi, I created a website with Zope that has its own acl_user folder with different users registered. When I log onto the site everything is fine, but by acessing certain pages Zope asks for a login again. Then I enter exact the same user and password and I can access the page. How can I prevent Zope from asking me for this useless login? Why does it come up? Thanks Eddy

pythonpath incomplete?
by Wouter Vanden Hove 07 Nov '04

07 Nov '04

Hi, I have python 2.3.4 running on my server and I installed Zope 2.7.3. installation goes wel, but when starting zope, I get: File "/opt/Zope-2.7.3-0/lib/python/OFS/History.py", line 17, in ? import Globals, ExtensionClass, difflib ImportError: No module named difflib but difflib is installed in /usr/local/lib/python2.3/difflib.py so it seems zope can't see the normal python-libraries. How to solve this? I installed Zope 2.7.3 because my normal zope (2.7.2) stopped functioning (cause unknown) with exactly the same kind of import-errors. It ran without any problems before. thx, w.
