AccessControl.Role.RoleManager &
by nwingfield＠dixon-hughes.com 18 May '04

18 May '04

I have written a simple class to function as pluggable brains for SQL records. My class is called Document, and it looks like this: class Document(RoleManager): " class code here " I need to set local roles on my result objects, so I am inheriting the RoleManager class. Within the __init__() method of my Document class, I make an SQL call to retrieve the local role mappings for the particular document in question. Then I call "self.manage_setLocalRoles(userid, roles )". This call fails, generating an AttributeError on __ac_local_roles__. I believe this is because Zope's base Record class has put the kabosh on setting any of its attributes. So at this point I am wondering if I have attempted the impossible. If so, is my only recourse to write a wrapper class that inherits from RoleManager and encapsulates my record objects? I'm sure I can do this; it just seems inelegant compared with pluggable brains. Furthermore, the base Record class seems to be compiled C++. Is any documentation available for this class? Thanks for your help!

Does this create a leak?
by Jean-Francois.Doyon＠CCRS.NRCan.gc.ca 18 May '04

18 May '04

Hello, Does setting a persistent object as attribute to another persistent object, and then accessing it directly through the web, create a leak? For example: from OFS.Image import Image class myclass(Image): def __init__(self) self.thumbnail = Image(id='thumbnail') and then access it using something like: http://host.com/myinstance/thumbnail Wouldn't this leave the thumbnail lying around after the GC cycle, since once the system is done with the parent instance, the refcount falls to zero, it's cleaned out, and the thumbnail is orphaned, creating a memory leak? I was told at some point that this was OK, but now that I'm hunting memory leaks and learning more about that, this no longer seems sensible. And since I do it all over the place, it'd explain my horrible leak of AcquisitionWrappers and HTTPRequests and so on ... As well as high refcount for CMFImage.Image ... Thanks, J.F.

Chris, No problem, thanks for the effort! I've been told to devote all of my resources to this myself, so that's what I'm doing ... Unfortunately, I'm pushing my skillset as far as deep debugging of Zope/Python, so it means a learning curve for me, which takes time ... The one great thing I'd like to be able to do is "attach" myself to the instances left around so I can inspect them ... Is that at all doable? I have the monitor port open, maybe I can go in that way ... There's also gdb, but I've never used it at all :( Oh and there's pdb ... can I run Zope within the debugger somehow? Maybe from within the monitor? Anyways, I guess I'll find out the hard way!

How to define input parameters to zpt ?

Hello ! I remember: anyone say to me that zpt has parameter dictionary. If I have zpt named zpt1, I can call it by py script: context.zpt1("1","a",anobj) But how I get it in zpt ? I forget this... I think, that is params, or globals like this: <p tal:replace="python:_globals[0]"/> Anyone help me ? Thanx. -- Üdv/Kind of Regards: fowlertrainer(a)anonym.hu mailto:fowlertrainer@anonym.hu

Error with LDAPUserFolderExt
by Gitte Wange 18 May '04

18 May '04

Hello, I'm trying to setup a LDAPUserFolder inside GRUF. (It's my first attempt so). When I'm trying to add the user folder, I get this error: Exception Type TypeError Exception Value __init__() got multiple values for keyword argument 'local_groups' Traceback (innermost last): * Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 98, in publish * Module ZPublisher.mapply, line 88, in mapply * Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 39, in call_object * Module Products.LDAPUserFolderExt.LDAPUserFolder, line 268, in manage_addLDAPUserFolderExt TypeError: __init__() got multiple values for keyword argument 'local_groups' I'm not sure what this error means. I have looked at the code but can't really see what the multiple values should be - local_groups is a select-box. Anyone with a hint ? Greetings, Gitte Wange

Oh, wait a minute ... Looks like I'm actually leaking HTTP requests!

Hopefully I'll be able to track this down more easily than wrapper problems. Still any input will be appreciated, tracking down memory leaks always seems like black magic to me :P Thanks, J.F. -----Original Message----- From: zope-bounces(a)zope.org [mailto:zope-bounces@zope.org]On Behalf Of Jean-Francois.Doyon(a)CCRS.NRCan.gc.ca Sent: May 13, 2004 1:46 PM To: stefan(a)epy.co.at Cc: zope(a)zope.org Subject: RE: [Zope] Leaking Acquisition.ImplicitAcquirerWrapper Stefan, Hmmm actually yes ... Not quite as high as the wrapper, but higher than I'd expect, right this moment I've got 124219 for the wrapper and 48965 for DateTime ... I use standard user folders everywhere, I don't do anything special with them ... So I have one in the root and one in each of two CMF instances. I removed the "Members" folder ... I have about 4 or 5 users in each, most access to the site is anonymous. Although now that you say it, it'd be interesting to see if removing user-based/authenticated access solves the problem. I've been trying to replicate the problem on a second copy of the site without success ... But then I never authenticated against it other than through the ZMI ... I'm looking forward to your response now that you've peaked my curiosity :) Thanks for the help, J.F. -----Original Message----- From: zope-bounces(a)zope.org [mailto:zope-bounces@zope.org]On Behalf Of Stefan H.

Mysterious data.fs increase
by Danny Bloemendaal 18 May '04

18 May '04

Hi folks, I have a production zope database with a size of 225Mb (after pack) and a local database (identical environment) which is a copy of production that is a few days old with a size of 45Mb. In a desperate attempt to find out where all these hundreds of Mb came from in only a few days while not much was added in the production database I did some tests: When I delete all the content from my Plone site, production db decreased to 7Mb, so I concluded that nearly all the size sits in the content. When I export all the content in import it into my local version (after removing the local content first), the size of my local db increased with only a few Mb. So local was about 50Mb after import and after packing. The export files where roughly 30Mb. So, my question is: where are those 190Mb (roughly)!??? Packing doesn't solve it. Besides, the catalog in my plone site takes about 45minutes to reindex the content and locally about 69seconds. Again, with the same content, same products installed, same python/zope versions etc etc. Please give me some insight. Cheers, Danny
