Hi all I try to use traverse_subpath in my product but I can't found a real good solution I found some pages explaining you need to override __bobo_traverse__ or __getitem__ in order to implement traverse_subpath on a product but I think it's a really poor solution My question could be: Is there any simple solution to implement traverse_subpath on my product? TIA

Largefile support error
by Eddie Parker 01 Jun '04

01 Jun '04

Hello! Classic disclaimer here: I'm not sure if this is the right list, so I apologize if I'm in the wrong place. Please be so kind as to redirect me, if this is the case! :) I'm trying to install Zope, to play around with (I've never used it before, but a development environment that lets me run with Python easily, is kinda nice), but I'm having an issue with Largefile support. I'm getting the error: "This Python interpreter does not have 'large file support' enabled. Large file support is required to allow the default Zope ZODB database to grow larger than 2GB on most platforms. Either install a Python interpreter with large file support (see http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/posix-large-files.html) or run this program again with the --ignore-largefile option to prevent this warning, with the understanding that your Zope may fail if the ZODB database size ever exceeds 2GB." Now, I follow the URL, and I get a list of flags to recompile Python with. I follow their directions (doing a make clean, with Python first), and stuff's *still* not compiling. I run the python interpreter, and try the 'import test.test_largefile', and it says that the filesystem doesn't support largefile... should I be asking a Python group about this? has anyone else run into something similar? I'd like to get up and running with zope.. Your help would be *most* appreciated! Thanks! ____ _/ __ \ , \ ___/ . \___ > o \/ O eddie parker

What is the Python script that is similar to a dtml-in call
by Larry McDonnell 01 Jun '04

01 Jun '04

Hi, I need some advice. I still use dtml calls in my systems. My problem is if the user is searching for a record but the record is not found. The call is as follows: <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('serial_number', serial_number)"> <dtml-in lookup_header_record> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('equip_type', equip_type)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('pr', pr)"> </dtml-in> If the record is not found I get this error: Error Type: KeyError Error Value: equip_type True statement since there is not record and further in the form I am trying to output this variable. Are there any examples that either traps for an error or python script that can also lookup the record and true a found/not found status. Thanks, Larry
