Using sendmail on FC5 with Zope 2.8.7
by Ignacio Valdes 05 Jul '06

05 Jul '06

Hi, I'm trying to get Mailhost to work on Fedora Core 5 with Zope 2.8.7. Sendmail is up and running on FC5, Mailhost is installed and set to localhost, port 25. However, nothing seems to happen when an e-mailable event occurs. I did not configure sendmail in anyway, it was the stock one on FC 5 install. I don't know where to begin as to how to get this to work. -- IV

Help on installing ZFSPath / LocalFS
by insinjoori 05 Jul '06

05 Jul '06

Hi. I'm pretty much a newbie when it comes to using Zope. I'd like to install ZFSPath or LocalFS (something to get hands on to local files).. So, I've unpacked the files to Products dir. I'm supposed to create a ZFSPath object somewhere. How do I excactly do that? And, ultimately, how do I use ZFSPath once it's installed??? Sorry about this, I'm an ass.. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Help-on-installing-ZFSPath---LocalFS-tf1895239.html#a… Sent from the Zope - General forum at Nabble.com.

That sounds like a good start! try ps -eLf at the command line, do you see the zope processes running? If your browser is running on the same machine try: http://localhost:8080 To see which ports zope is working with look at the file.../etc/zope.conf and look for two things: (1) http-server and (2) port-base (the zope.conf file contains comments which will tell you what you need to know). If you have apache running as a web server in front of zope you will need to configure apache (you can find info here: http://www.zope.org/Members/regebro/Zope_and_Apache) Good luck!

Zope installation woes
by russ 05 Jul '06

05 Jul '06

Hello Zopesters, Firstly, I must say that I'm completely new to this as I usually develop front-end stuff, so excuse my ignorance. Right... that's out of the way - I have been trying to install Zope on a server I have access to via SSH. I've followed the instructions for installing it from source found here: http://plone.org/documentation/how-to/setup-from-source I've got as far as making an instance and then attempting to start Zope. First of all I got this: root@server [~]# /usr/local/zope/instance3/bin/runzope /usr/local/zope/zope2.9.3/lib/python/ZServer/utils.py:33: DeprecationWarning: The zLOG package is deprecated and will be removed in Zope 2.11. Use the Python logging module instead. LOG('ZServer', severity[type], message) /usr/local/zope/zope2.9.3/lib/python/Signals/SignalHandler.py:39: DeprecationWarning: The zLOG package is deprecated and will be removed in Zope 2.11. Use the Python logging module instead. zLOG.LOG('Z2', zLOG.BLATHER, "Installed sighandler for %s" % ( ...and then nothing :-| I tried running it again & got the following: <snipped output> ZConfig.ConfigurationError: There was a problem starting a server of type "HTTPS erver". This may mean that your user does not have permission to bind to the por t which the server is trying to use or the port may already be in use by another application. (Address already in use) The log file reports it's running, yet I cannot seem to access the start page from http://myserverip:8080. I don't know what to do next? Can anyone please help me out? :( R.

Problems modifying a "global" attribute of a portal tool.
by JoseLuis de la Rosa Triviño 05 Jul '06

05 Jul '06

Hi, I'm working with zope 2.9.1 in debug mode. I have a tool (especifically who_online) where I have created a new class attribute and some methods to modify an read it. A python script is called with a user's click and uses those methods. My problem is that some times when a user modifies the value of the attribute (a python dicctionary) the action takes no effect or it takes effect only in the current transaction. I'm still newbie in zope. The class attribute is called "members_rooms" and the methods are: def joinedRoom(self, member, room): """ Adds the member to the room's list of members. """ self.members_rooms[member] = room logger.info(" %s joined room %s ", member, room) def leftRoom(self, member, room): """ Removes the member from the room where it's supposed to be joined. """ if self.members_rooms.has_key(member): del self.members_rooms[member] logger.info(" %s left the room %s ", member, room) I get log info messages correctly and if I print the value of members_rooms before and after the statement (del or assignment) printed values are correct, but when I query the value of the attribute from a python script just after the "transaction" has finished, the attribute's value has not changed. May some body help me? What am I doing wrong? WhoOnline is a class (and portal tool) that inherits from SimpleItem, Implicit and PropertyManager. Thank you very much.

Rollback and delete weird behavior
by Luiz Fernando B. Ribeiro 03 Jul '06

03 Jul '06

Hello, In a python script I got a structure like this: # Many request checks # A zSQl method deleting some old data cotainer.doDelete(key=key) errors = [ ] for data in list: # Other checks if error: errors.append(error) continue # Inserts in mysql database cotainer.doInsert(data=data, other=stuff) if errors: raise "An Error with list of error: %s" % ', '.join(errors) # --- cut --- The problem is that the raise is not rolling back the delete, looking in mysql log the following sequence was found: --Begin transaction [delete statement] [the insert statements] --Rollback --Begin transaction !! [delete statement again] !! --Commit !!! We tried it many times and revised our code. The only solution was to put the delete statement in weird block like this: if True: cotainer.doDelete(key=key) As if the rollback was only effective against a "2nd level" instruction. This is a really odd behavior but with this trick the rollback was done correctly. Has anyone ever seen this? Luiz Fernando B. Ribeiro

[ANN] TextIndexNG 3.1.10 released
by Andreas Jung 03 Jul '06

03 Jul '06

I am pleased to announce the release of TextIndexNG V 3.1.10 TextIndexNG V 3 is a complete new implementation based on Zope 3 technologies and can be used both in Zope 2.8 or in Zope 3. What's new? - multi-field indexing and query support - multi-lingual support - configurable converters (through ZCML) - new indexing API (allowing you to hook your custom content types with TextIndexNG through Zope 3 adapters). Changes in V 3.1.10: - some fixes in the Plone adapters - the TextIndexNG 3 repository has been migrated from CVS to SVN (http://svn.sf.net/textindexng) Requirements: - Zope 2.8+, Zope 3.2+ Download: http://sf.net/projects/textindexng Project page: http://opensource.zopyx.biz/OpenSource/TextIndexNG3 For installation and documentation issues refer to doc/README.txt from the archive. It's basically the same procedure as with former versions except you *need* to recompile the extension modules. Windows binaries of the required extension modules are currently not available (any volunteers?). TextIndexNG V 3 is published under the ZPL.
