DTML or ZPT to show browser's IP?
by Michael Dexter 12 Mar '04

12 Mar '04

Hello, Might someone be willing to point me in the right direction of how I might insert a simple tag to show the browser's IP address? Is this a simple global to be echoed or is more involved? Thanks, Michael.

Plone Macro Madness
by D. Bickle 12 Mar '04

12 Mar '04

Hi All, I am using Plone to provide the look and feel for my application. When I embed the page macros in a html file Zope renders the macros wonderfully. However when I use a Python script to generate html using print statements it doesn't appear to be working. The code looks something like this: print '<html metal:use-macro="here/dialup_template/macros/dialup"></html>' Then some more dynamic HTML in Python.... print '<div class="footer" metal:use-macro="here/footer/macros/portal_footer">Footer</div>' return printed Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

problem calling a Python external method in a folder from a DTML method
by Jim Anderson 12 Mar '04

12 Mar '04

I've had a few questions on DTML in the past week. This should be my last DTML question for a while for serveral reasones: 1) If I can make this last example work, I'm pretty sure that I can do all that I want or need to do in DTML. Actually, I want to do very little in DTML and quite a bit in Python so I don't think I need too much DTML capability. 2) My experiment DTML application will be working once the issue below is resolved. 3) I plan to take the nudging toward ZPT and start an experiment application in ZPT. Hopefully, I will then be done with DTML. Thanks to Troy Farrell, Chris Withers, and Jonathan I have a problem using Zope 2.7.0. I've tried Zope on both a Linux and Windows PC and have the same problem. I'm working on a DTML method in which I want to call an external method in a folder, 'F'. F is a subdirectory of the directory in which the DTML resides. The method, 'M', is in an external module 'M.py', so the path from the current folder is 'F/M'. My folder has a property, "Sample", with a value of "Sample Text". The method, M, returns a string value, "M method". First I try calling F.M() <p>Calling a method</p> <dtml_var expr="F.M()"> <p>After method call</p> Then I try using the dtml-with tag using F as the object being pushed on the stack. <dtml-with F only> <h2>Sample: <dtml-var sample></h2> <p>Calling a method</p> <dtml_var expr="M()"> <p>After method call</p> </dtml-with> When this DTML method is run, the output looks like: Calling a method After method call Sample: Sample Text Calling a method After method call The sample property renders properly, but not the method output. The output does not include the string returned by method, 'M'. I've experimented with a number of different possibilities, but I can not get method 'M' to run. But I get no error messages either. I've tried wrapping the calls to 'M' in a dtml-try statement, but no exception was raised. When I test my M.py file in the Extension directory, the python file executes as expected. Can anyone give me a suggestion on how to get this method to execute from the DTML when a dtml-call or dtml-var tag is used? Jim Anderson

Is there any way of getting Zope's startup msgs into a log? They don't appear in Z2.log. -- John

Using ObjectManager class
by Serg 12 Mar '04

12 Mar '04

<file min_all.py> .... class min_all(SimpleItem.SimpleItem,ObjectManager): ... manage_options=(ObjectManager.manage_options + ({'label':'Edit Minimal', 'action':'manage_editMin_allForm'}, )) ...... def addFoo(self,id,dn): "add Foo object to min_all object" O=Foo(id,dn) self._setObject(id, O) self._p_changed=1 def delFoo(self,id): "del Foo object from min_all object" O=Foo(id,dn) self._delObject(id) self._p_changed=1 Function delFoo and addFoo working normally. For example, I can't add second Foo object with existing id, and I can't del Foo object with not existing id. But I can't see objects on ObjectManager.manage_options tab! I see only message: "There are currently no items in min_all1". I think, that problem is in _getOb function of ObjectManager class.... How can I change this function? And where can I read information about using ObjectManager class? Regards, Serg.

Problems installing Archetypes
by Nitin Mistry 12 Mar '04

12 Mar '04

Hello, I am a new person looking into Zope. I downloaded the latest versions of Zope & various products in the last two weeks. I am having problems installing the Archetypes Product. It comes with two packages called generator & validation which need to be installed using "python setup.py install" which puts the built files into <Zope>/bin/lib/site-packages However zope cannot find the "generator" module on startup. I have tried to put the same package into lots of other locations like lib/python, lib/python/product, bin, ... BUT all to no success. Could someone help me install this product? Environment: Windows NT service pack6a Zope 2.7.0 Latest Versions of many products - tried Archetypes 1.3.0 & 1.2.4 - generator is version 1.0.1 Thanks Nitin Mistry

How do you start and stop zope in windows
by Peter Millar 11 Mar '04

11 Mar '04

I have found in my zope\bin directory a runzope.bat .this is great it works well. The only way I get the app server to stop is by doing CTRL-C. Ouch . there has got to be a nicer way . and please don't say use zopectl . from what I can gather it only works on unix or if you want me to use this in windows what are the commands?? ____________________________________________ Peter Millar Technical Project Manager Parasyn Controls Pty Ltd Peter.Millar(a)Parasyn.com.au T: 61 7 3396 6388 F: 61 7 3396 6299 45 Millenium Place, Tingalpa QLD 4173 PO Box 400 Cannon Hill QLD 4170 Australia www.parasyn.com.au <http://www.parasyn.com.au/>
