emergency user account does not work
by Tim Suter 21 Jul '05

21 Jul '05

After logging out of the ZMI, I have tried to log in as the emergency user by filling in the proper credentials. The page never loads. Could there be a tick I am missing in the security settings for the root folder/ZMI? OR is this something that has to be run via localhost from the server on which Zope is installed? Thanks, Tim Suter

Python formatting question
by hpinson＠indepthl.com 21 Jul '05

21 Jul '05

In a Python script, how can I break up a SQL statement over more than one line? For example, to transform #generate the sql statement sql="DELETE FROM tblUsers WHERE user_name LIKE '%'" to: #generate the sql statement sql="DELETE FROM tblUsers WHERE user_name LIKE '%'" ...does not work. Is there a way to break lines? Any example would be appreciated. Harlow Pinson Indepth Learning Email: hpinson(a)indepthl.com Web: http://www.indepthl.com Voice: 505-994-2135 FAX: 208-475-7678

Python allows you to you triple-quotes to include line breaks in the string:: sql="""DELETE FROM tblUsers WHERE user_name LIKE '%'""" Take a look at the python.org tutorial or diveintopython.org. --jcc

store data as long as the user is logged on
by gabor 21 Jul '05

21 Jul '05

hi, i need to store some data as long as the user is logged on to zope. how can i achieve this? using the session is not a good idea, because some parts of the code simply call session.clear() (i did not write that part). if everything fails, i can use a singleton where i put a dictionary based on some-kind-of user-id... but i'd like to avoid that if possible (don't want to think about the multi-user-asking-at-the-same-time problems).. is there any place where i could attach my data structure? thanks, gabor

product beginer question : how to code add_xx_form and manage_add_xx such that xx finds instance of another product yy
by santiago 21 Jul '05

21 Jul '05

Hi sorry for the logn subjet :) I'm using Zope 2.7.5-final, python 2.3.5, linux2, and I'm just strating to code my first products. Here's my problem: I want to make a product that watchs instances from other products. for instance, let's say I have a product yy, with its add_yy_Form, manage_add_yy and class yy definitions, such that instances of yy just display memorised a string. now I want to build product xx such that when I create an instance of xx, I can tell it, throug the form provided by add_xx_form, which instance of yy I want it to watch at. (let's say for instance I want instance form yy to display the reverse of the chosen instance from xx) so I need add_yy_form to provide the end user with some kind of select from instances at hand (in current page, or in current page plus subpages would be nicer) and then I need the manage_add_yy to process that and be able to find the reference of the selected zope object. I thought of one solution : to provide a select with the url of the objects. So here come the questions : - is that ok, or is there a better way ? - is 'absolute_url()' the simplest way to find the urls for add_yy_form - if I manage to find a reference back from the url in manage_add_yy, what will happend if someone moves the object around, using copy/cut/paste for instance ? will what I think of as a reference still be pointing to the correct item ? (Note that my solution must not be specific to instances of xx : yy shall be able to watch instances from any kind of product) (sorry for such a simple question with such a long introduction... ) thanks!

css in filesystem based product
by Nicholas Wieland 21 Jul '05

21 Jul '05

Hi *, I'm having issues developing a filesystem based product. The product loads correctly and I see my zpt, but I'm not able to apply a stylesheet. The product directory is under Zope-Instance/Products, I've created some directories where I put styles and templates - but changing this structure is no problem at all. I don't have the slightest idea on how I can hook the .css to the .zpt, probably the css must be "published" inside zope in some ways, but I don't know how. I'm using plain Zope, no Plone and no CMF. I've also tried to look how Plone does this but without any success (it's just too big ...). TIA, ngw --------------------------------- Yahoo!

question on python script, dtml method and options
by Erik Myllymaki 20 Jul '05

20 Jul '05

I use the following template often. When using a page template for my MAIN page, I access the error and message vars with: <p tal:content="options/error">Error message</p> <p tal:content="options/message">Reg. Message</p> How would I access them when I use a dtml-method for my MAIN page? <dtml-var error> and <dtml-var message> don't seem to work. Python Script - index_html: # Import a standard function, and get the HTML request and response objects. from Products.PythonScripts.standard import html_quote request = container.REQUEST RESPONSE = request.RESPONSE error='' message='' if not request.has_key('next_state'): return container['MAIN'](context, request, error=error, message=message) elif request.get('next_state') == 'Do Something': try: doSomething() message = message + 'We did something' except: error = error + 'Error in doSomething()' elif request.get('next_state') == 'Do Something Else': try: doSomethingElse() message = message + 'We did something else' except: error = error + 'Error in doSomethingElse()' return container['MAIN'](context, request, error=error, message=message)

Hi, > AJ> Look at mxODBC or the latest version of ZODBCDA from zope.org. > > I'm free download egenix-mx-base-2.0.6.win32-py2.3.exe. > I have install zope 2.8 for windows. > I could not install egenix-mx-base-2.0.6.win32-py2.3.exe. Becouse it > could not find python in registry. > > How to install egenix-mx-base-2.0.6.win32-py2.3.exe without python in registry. > > Please help me. You have three alternatives (perhaps four if you consider linux): First alternative: 1.1 Install the python 2.3.4 binaries (the python that comes with zope, isn't logged on the registry, so, you can't use it) 1.2 Install the the egenix binaries 1.3 Copy the egenix installed files to: C:\YourZopeFolder\lib\python If I'm not wrong, the binaries are installed on : C:\python2.3\lib\python2.1 -> Make sure that you don't overwrite something in the zope's python. You can download the source code of egenix to have an idea of the files it installs 1.4 Uninstall python if you want Second alternative: 2.1 Create a folder called Python in C:\ 2.2 Create manualy this registry key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.3\InstallPath] 2.3 Set its value to C:\Python 2.4 Install the egenix binaries (they will be installed somewhere on C:\Python). 2.5 Copy the egenix installed files to: C:\YourZopeFolder\lib\python 2.6 Delete the registry key Alternatively to step 2.2, you can get this registry file: http://www.zope.org/Members/SmileyChris/HowTo.2005-02-06.0339/pil_for_windo… Before double clicking on it, change the 2.1 by 2.3 in your preffered text editor. Then you can double click on it and it will automatically install the key. Be aware that the key will remain on the registry till you manually delete it. Third alternative: Install python from source and then egenix. Here you need a C compiler. Finally copy the egenix files to C:\YourZopeFolder\lib\python I hope this was usefull. I did alternative 2 once and it worked. I haven't tested it recently, so, I can't guarantee it. Regards, Josef
