Storing sensitive data
by Dan Gaibel 13 Dec '06

13 Dec '06

Hi all, I am wondering about storing credit card and personal information in Zope 2.8.6 (with Python 2.3.5.) Is there a simple way to secure data with SSL/https without having to run Apache? I found ZServerSSL and I wonder if that will be the answer. Has anyone used the product with Zope 2.8? I am a newbie with an SSL certificate and I frankly don't know what to do with it. Thanks in advance for any help! Best, Dan

Zeo question
by ian 13 Dec '06

13 Dec '06

Hi, Hope you can help 1. I am having trouble connecting a zope client to a zeo database.The server and client are in different goegraphical locations and behind different proxies and firewalls. I read that they communicate using a 'custom RPC protocol'...what does this mean and does it have any influence on which firewall/proxy rules we need to implement on our network?? 2. I can create a custom skin on each zope (in reality plone) instance right or is each zope instance is just a mirror of the other? thx -- Ian Lawrence http://ianlawrence.info Centre for Bioinformatics INSTITUTO NACIONAL DE PESQUISAS DA AMAZÔNIA-INPA RUA ANDRÉ ARAÚJO N º .2936 , BAIRRO DO ALEIXO MANAUS-AMAZONAS-BRAZIL Research Program in Biodiversity http://ppbio.inpa.gov.br PHONE: 055-92-3643-3358 CEP. 69011 -970 | Please do not send me documents in a closed | format.(*.doc,*.xls,*.ppt) | Use the open alternatives.

Get a reference to the latest transaction
by Peter Bengtsson 13 Dec '06

13 Dec '06

Is it possible? If so, how do I get a reference to the last/current transaction that just happened within a method? Pseudo code: class MyFolder(Folder): def manage_afterAdd(self): self.image_count = 0 def addImage(self, imgdata, REQUEST): self.manage_addImage('someid', file=imgdata) self.image_count = self.image_count + 1 url = self.absolute_url() + '?transactionid=%s' % get_transaction().getId() REQUEST.RESPONSE.redirect(url) If I had that, I could then do the following in my template: <div tal:condition="request/transactionid|nothing"> Image uploaded. <a tal:attributes="href string:undoTransaction?transactionid=${request/transactionid}" >Undo</a> </div> Is it possible? -- Peter Bengtsson, work www.fry-it.com home www.peterbe.com hobby www.issuetrackerproduct.com

Yes there is a 'return 0' at the beginning. This code always executes and works just fine, as I've mentioned before, as long as the template is in the root folder of the given Web site. I'm trying to put this template in a "root" folder that services all the Web sites of the portal, and that's where I'm having trouble.
