In lib/python/App/Product.py line 549: product.home=home 'home' is the product path as determined by OFS.Application.install_product; it looks, from a cursory glance, that this should be reset every time Zope is restart. It should be perfectly safe to delete the Products from your Control Panel Products folder and restart Zope to have them recreated though. If you don't trust this procedure, back up the ZODB, but from my reading this should happen every time you start Zope anyway. -- Martijn Pieters

ANN: ZSyncer 0.7.0 released
by Paul Winkler 18 Jan '06

18 Jan '06

ZSyncer 0.7.0 Released Version 0.7.0-final (2005/12/15) is available for download from sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=28073&package_id=2091… ZSyncer is a Zope 2 product that allows you to synchronize and compare objects from one zope (source) to another (destination). It is a lot more convenient than the old manual export / transfer / import procedure. Noteworthy changes since 0.6.2: Features added: * We now have two-directional sync! Instead of just "sync", we now have both "put" (like the old sync) and "get" (pulls changes from the remote system to the client system). Thanks Alan Milligan! * new method of ZSyncer and ZSyncerTool: callManyRemote() to call multiple arbitrary methods on the remote system and return a list of results. * Pretty complete example skins for ZSyncerTool integration with CMF/Plone. See README.txt for more instructions. Doesn't have all features yet (e.g. no "pull" support). * Should work with Zope 2.8 now! * The "override user" stuff is removed from the UI. You now have to use the proto://user:passwd@server url format. See README.txt for more information. * The (broken) XMLRPC code has been removed. * New config variable, "upload_threshold_kbytes", determines the point at which the server spools data to a temp file instead of RAM. * "delete" now deletes from both local and remote systems. * SSL connections using ConnectionMgr should now set timeout properly. * Lots of unit tests! For bugfixes and older changes, see CHANGES.txt. -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com

Isn't package_home() doing the same? package_home serves a different use-case, I think; you use it within a Product to determine paths to templates and such. As for users of Product.home; QuickInstaller uses it, and the product object itself uses it to find the README.txt file for the ZMI tab. -- Martijn Pieters

Zope 2.7 with postgresql 8.1 anyone?
by David 18 Jan '06

18 Jan '06

Is anyone using successfully Zope 2.7 with postgresql 8.1? Or any other version of Zope? What is your database adapter product? We're using Pyscopg (happily using 1.1x with Zope 2.7 and pg 7.3/4), but have problems getting it to work with either Psycopg 1.2x (protocol missmatch errors) or Psycopg 2.x (transactions are getting aborted for no reason). We're happy to dabble, but would like to know that it is working in principle. We're on a delivery schedule and don't want to be dependant on bug fixes still required. Thanks!

Autoconnect with ZMySQLDA 2.0.9
by Dennis Allison 18 Jan '06

18 Jan '06

I have been seeing occasional "release unlocked lock" errors from a storage error in a two-phase commit which really comes from a "Lost connection to MySQL server during query". Apparently this arises from a failure of self.db.ping() to find a connected database as the transaction is opened. It is possible that the connection has really timed out. Looking at the code it appears that ZMySQLDA does not attempt to recreate the connection. Is that correct? What's the recommend approach to re-establish the connection? -d --

Where oh where is Repozo
by Jonathan Cyr 17 Jan '06

17 Jan '06

Um, Where is the latest version of Repozo, the backup tool, kept? Is there a reason, that it's not included with the Zope install/utilities (at least the 2.7.x I'm using). I confess, I've been stopping my zope, and tar'ing the directories.... so now I want to clean up my act and use Repozo... and I'm having difficulty finding it in Google, Zope.org. BTW, there is an excellent explanation of Repozo in two places, http://www.zope.org/Wikis/ZODB/FileStorageBackup http://www.plope.com/Members/chrism/repozo but neither have links to a source/repository. It also says here, that repozo is included with Plone, but not with Zope... hmmmm I find Zope to be super stable, with zero corruptions of any kind, and no need to ever restore a backup... but lightning may strike, and I've gotten away with poor backup disciplines long enough. A URL would be much appreciated. -Jon -- Jonathan Cyr http://www.cyr.info http://www.weddingweblog.com cyrj(a)cyr.info

MySql 5.0, ZMySQLDA and stored procedures
by Cameron Beattie 17 Jan '06

17 Jan '06

I was getting the following error when attempting to call a stored procedure via a Z SQL Method: _mysql_exceptions.OperationalError: (1312, etc So I made the following change to /usr/lib/zope/lib/python/Products/ZMySQLDA/db.py: def _parse_connection_string(self, connection): kwargs = {'conv': self.conv, 'client_flag': 65536 #inserted by CSB } I then restarted Zope. I can now successfully call stored procedures. There may be a better way to do it. Feel free to advise if so. Apologies if this information has already been posted. Cameron

Spam-Bounces
by Tino Wildenhain 17 Jan '06

17 Jan '06

Hi, I'm getting bounces of messages sent to zope(a)zope.org with aparently large binary attachments. Luckily they are too big to get thru automatically. Looks like spammers are around and faking identities. Is it possible to enhance the list software to check gpg keys of posts? Just an idea... ++Tino
