August 2006 - Zope - Zope lists

03 Aug '06

I have FreeBSD 5.3 and just installed Apache 2.2.3. I just took over sysadmining this box. We work with Zope and VirtualHostMonster, so there's lots of RewriteRules and a proxy is necessary. The problem is configuring the proxy. The old Apache (1.3.3) had the following: LoadModule proxy_module libexec/libproxy.so ClearModuleList AddModule proxy_module libexec/libproxy.so but apparently the new version of Apache doesn't use that code any more. I ran my configure command with --enable-proxy=shared among others and it didn't complain. Nonetheless, I get errors like this: server167# /usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl -k start httpd: Syntax error on line 56 of /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/apache2/modules/libproxy.so into server: /usr/local/apache2/modules/libproxy.so: Undefined symbol "ap_dummy_mutex" when I copy libproxy.so over to the new distro and put in the LoadModule command, server167# /usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl -k start Syntax error on line 576 of /usr/local/apache2/conf/vhosts.conf: // This is where my <VirtualHost *> stuff lives Invalid command 'CacheRoot', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration server167# /usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl -k start httpd: Syntax error on line 56 of /usr/local/apache2/conf/httpd.conf: Cannot load /usr/local/apache2/modules/libproxy.so into server: /usr/local/apache2/modules/libproxy.so: Undefined symbol "ap_dummy_mutex" For some reason, I can't get the old Apache up, either, so I'm trying to resolve the problem with the new one. Please help. Thanks. beno

Hi, I'm trying to get the size of a file uploaded via an HTML form before it's written. "context.REQUEST.file" only accesses the file name, not the content. How do I read the contents? Any help will be much appreciated. TIA, AnThu

defunct process with os.spawn*
by Alan 03 Aug '06

03 Aug '06

Dears, Now I am facing an annoying problem. I have an application in Zope which calls a External Method, which calls a bash script via: var_pid = os.spawnlp(os.P_NOWAIT, 'script.sh', 'script.sh', arg1,arg2) The idea is to start some programs in background (which will take hours running) and I need to pass arguments and track its PID for eventually checking its status. So os.spawnlp seemed the perfect solution. However, when my bash script finished, my processes gets <defunct> childed to the Zope process. And only restarting Zope to get rid of such defunct process, an unthinkable solution. I am running: Plone 2.1.2, Zope (Zope 2.8.5-final, python 2.3.5, sunos5), Python 2.3.5 (#1, Feb 14 2006, 10:51:41) [C], -- Alan Wilter S. da Silva, D.Sc. - Research Associate Department of Biochemistry, University of Cambridge. 80 Tennis Court Road, Cambridge CB2 1GA, UK. >>http://www.bio.cam.ac.uk/~awd28<<

I'm new to Zope, though I've been writing Python for some time. I have a fresh installation to which I've added a simple Python script (code below) in the root directory. When I test the script through the ZMI or attempt to access it via the web, I get an error: Error Type: Unauthorized Error Value: You are not allowed to access localtime in this context I'm logged in as a Manager and have tried setting the Proxy of the script to both Manager and Owner, to no avail. Can someone please help me understand what is happening and how to fix it? Thanks code of the script: import time t=time.localtime() print t return printed

How can i improve performance of website under heavy load in Zope2.6.1
by Sudesh Soni 03 Aug '06

03 Aug '06

Hi, I am using Zope 2.6.1 I wonder why Zope is default set for handling 4 threads and 7 database connections. I tried inreasing threads to 20 and database connections to 30 by updating z2.py and DB.py, presuming that this will help to improve performance under heavy load. Can anyone suggest what impact will be there if i do this , in Zope 2.6.1 OR Can anyone suggest any other option to improve performance under heavy load in Zope 2.6.1 Any help will be appreciated.

Can't nest dtml-in using prefix ...
by Jesper Steen Steffensen 02 Aug '06

02 Aug '06

This won't work: <dtml-in qry_user_roles prefix="outer"> <dtml-in qry_roles> <dtml-if expr="outer_role==role"> Roles are matching </dtml-if> </dtml-in> </dtml-in> I get an error that says key error - outer_role doesn't exist. It doesn't matter if I prefix the inner dtml-in as well. (I've read it isn't necessary though) Why won't the prefix work for me?
