ImportError
by Florian Reiser 13 Mar '04

13 Mar '04

Hello Dieter, I have searched for objects with the meta_type of the old product. Nothing to find. If I export the directory and scan the zexp-file, then I find the product in several places. If you can analyze the zexp-file, then write to me. I will send you the file, but I don't want to send it over the mailing-list. Is there anything else I can do? Regards Florian Reiser

Zope 2.6.4: can't iterate through protected objects
by Kyler Laird 13 Mar '04

13 Mar '04

I realize that 2.6.4 is not the current version of Zope, but that's what's in Debian right now. I'm trying to migrate some systems and I found that old scripts are breaking so I'd like to know what to expect from newer versions. The problem I'm encountering is that I can get a list of objects in a Folder objects = context.objectValues() and I can even sort them based on their titles objects.sort(sortby_title) but if I try to iterate through them with a for loop for object in objects: None I get an authorization error because one of them has "Access contents information" limited. This has been working well in older Zopes for a long time. Is it likely to work in 2.7.0 or should I think about downgrading? (I'm also having trouble with TransparentFolders in this version, so I'm about ready to give up on upgrades.) Thank you. --kyler

Returning a ZPT form with fields filled in
by Jan Van Uytven 13 Mar '04

13 Mar '04

hey all, I have a page template that displays a list of rows from a database, along with a radio button on each row and an 'edit' button. When a radio button is selected and 'Edit' pressed, I want to send the user to another page that contains a form with all the values filled in with the data of that specific row, so the user can modify the information and submit the changes to the database. I've created the page that displays the rows, along with the radio button... I've also got the page with the form, and associated script/ZSQL method for updating the database. What I don't know how to do is the populate the form with the information I need. Can I use a python script to return the form page with the values filled in? How? BTW the forms are based on Formulator forms, if that helps or makes a difference.

display sql result inline in dtml page?
by RI Dunfey 12 Mar '04

12 Mar '04

Hi, I have a index page written in dtml. I want to display the results of a sql query 'inline'. The dtml-in tag appears to return the results of a query but puts them on a new line, the dtml-call tag, to the best of my knowledge, isn't designed to return the results of the query. I want a paragraph along the lines of: In this online grocery shop you will find 7 types of orange, 21 types of apples, 14 types of pear. Our team of 45 staff will package your order. Where an sql statement is used to count the number or oranges, apples or pears respectively. Do I really have to use a separate python script to do this? Any help appreciated, Rob

by fowlertrainer＠anonym.hu 12 Mar '04

12 Mar '04

Hello ! In mod_python I can send the result to the browser with o.write(Msg) command immediately (o is the object of the connection). So I can show the progress of the long operation like this: o.content_type="html" o.write("Long process with progress") for i in range(1,101): o.write(str(i)+"% processed"); sleep(100) o.write("Finished...") So I can see the whole progress in the browser. I want to create same function in zope. Can I do it ? Thanx for every help ! -- Best regards, fowlertrainer mailto:fowlertrainer@anonym.hu

Virtual Monster Monster!
by Stephen Rudd 12 Mar '04

12 Mar '04

Hi, I have a problem with virtual monsters. I have a Zope server, let us call it "bioinf2.btk.fi". It lives behind a university firewall and behaves exactly as I would expect. I have a domain name, let us call it "sputnik.btk.fi". The domain name corresponds to an apache server that forwards the request to a different physical machine. I have tried setting up a Zope Virtual Host Monster and the iMeme Virtual Host Monster to move requests to sputnik.btk.fi to a different folder (SPUTNIK) - this does not appear to work! Neither the different directory is shown, nor are the correct URLs produced (all links from sputnik.btk.fi become bioinf2.btk.fi:9080). Testing an analogous mapping using another Zope instance (epsilon.zettai.net) works as would be expected; but there is no request forwarding here! Can anyone explain what I am doing wrong? Any help would be very gratefully received!
