by Jens Vagelpohl 27 Aug '06

27 Aug '06

The CMF developer community is pleased to announce the release of version 1.5.7 of the Zope Content Management Framework (CMF). This release marks the latest stable release in the CMF 1.5 series and should be suitable for production use. What is the CMF? The Zope Content Management Framework provides a set of services and content objects useful for building highly dynamic, content-oriented portal sites. As packaged, the CMF generates a site much like the zope.org site. The CMF is intended to be easily customizable, in terms of both the types of content used and the policies and services it provides. What's new in this release? The 1.5.7 release represents a pure bug fix/maintenance release without feature additions. Where do I get it? Download it from http://www.zope.org/Products/CMF/CMF-1.5.7 Points of interest include: - Windows ZIP file: http://www.zope.org/Products/CMF/CMF-1.5.7/CMF-1.5.7.zip - Unix tar/gzip archive: http://www.zope.org/Products/CMF/CMF-1.5.7/CMF-1.5.7.tar.gz - Release notes: http://www.zope.org/Products/CMF/CMF-1.5.7/README.txt - Change history: http://www.zope.org/Products/CMF/CMF-1.5.7/CHANGES.txt - Installation instructions: http://www.zope.org/Products/CMF/CMF-1.5.7/INSTALL.txt - CMF Release Roadmap: http://www.zope.org/Products/CMF/docs/roadmap Where do I go to learn more?

Re: [Zope] Re: VerboseSecurity not working

ok I've followed the instructions there and added these two lines to zope.conf >> # Example: # security-policy-implementation python verbose-security on # Directive: skip-authentication-checking >> by the way the only reference to verbose security in the conf file was the text " Description: # The default Zope security machinery is implemented in C. # Change this to "python" to use the Python version of the # Zope security machinery. This impacts performance but # is useful for debugging purposes and required by Products such as # VerboseSecurity, which need to "monkey-patch" the security # machinery." and then restarted Zope however I now get a start up error :\Program Files\Plone 2.1.3\Data\etc\zope.conf" Error: value did not match regular expression: 'ver######################## ##################################################' On 8/26/06, Andreas Jung <lists(a)zopyx.com> wrote: > > > > --On 25.

Multiple conditions inside tales
by Jonathan Bowlas 25 Aug '06

25 Aug '06

Hi All, Just a quickie to see if I can do this: tal:condition="python:context.REQUEST.model.meta_type=='Silva Publication' or context.REQUEST.model.is_default()" When I test it seems to ignore the 2nd condition, so could anyone suggest the correct syntax. Cheers Jon

Something like: REQUEST.RESPONSE.setHeader('Content-Type', 'application/zip-compressed') (uhm, not sure of the right spelling) And return the file object, not its contents. The publisher takes care of sending it on chunks if needed. Gabriel Genellina Softlab SRL __________________________________________________ Pregunt�. Respond�. Descubr�.

by Andreas Jung 24 Aug '06

24 Aug '06

First of all an important correction: The location of the 7th DZUG conference is at the technical College in St. Augustin near Bonn and not as previously announced in Berlin. The 7th DZUG conference meets on 14-15 September 2006 in St.Augustin (near Bonn/ Rhein-Sieg Technical College) and *not* in *Berlin*. The Department of Computer Science at Bonn/Rhein-Sieg College, the "Paritaetische Wohlfahrtsverband NRW" and the DZUG e.V. are organizing the conference together. The topic of the conference is "Zope as a strategic platform for complex web applications". "Plone-Track at German Zope Conference: Call for Papers" One of the three tracks is dedicated to Plone the most popular Zope-CMS. The talks in this track are intended both for developers as well as decision makers and users. Contributions are still welcome! Formal requirements for the talks * Talks are limited to 30 minutes * The slides of the talks should be delivered to the organization committee during the conference so they can be placed at the DZUG website. * Proposals with the name of the speaker are to be submitted as abstracts. * 1 September 2006 is the deadline for the e-mail submission of proposals at email(a)dzug.org.

Hi! Thanks for your replies. But for what I want LocalFS or ExtFile sounds too much, specially because I just need to download. Either, I did not realise yet well what Richard purposed... However, I tried that: with a external method fname = os.path.join(jobdir,'results.zip') file = open(fname,'rb').read() return file but instead of having the file downloaded, it is printed in my browser, as if it was a ascii file. I guess I need to add a mime type property here, but I am running out of ideas. Any commentary would be very welcome.

download a file in a specific folder in the filesystem
by Alan 24 Aug '06

24 Aug '06

Dears, I would to know how to download a file generated by a program outside zope. I mean, I would like to download a file via zope webserver and such a file is located outside the zope space. Since zope treats everything as a object I have know idea of how "importing" the link to a file inside zope space. I would thank in advance any help.
