ERROR ZODB.Connection Couldn't load state for 0x04
by Mark Gibson 13 Apr '09

13 Apr '09

Zope 2.9.7 Apparently, I've done something bad and created "cross database reference". At least, that's what I gather from googling the ZODB error. I have 3 filesystem storages. One contains a ZCatalog that references objects in the other. Is this the cause of the error? I can't start zope now - how can I recover from this? 2009-04-13 10:46:24 ERROR ZODB.Connection Couldn't load state for 0x04 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/zope/zope_2_9_7/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py", line 732, in setstate self._setstate(obj) File "/home/zope/zope_2_9_7/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py", line 786, in _setstate self._reader.setGhostState(obj, p) File "/home/zope/zope_2_9_7/lib/python/ZODB/serialize.py", line 617, in setGhostState obj.__setstate__(state) AttributeError: keys

SSL/https
by Catherine E. Reinehr 13 Apr '09

13 Apr '09

Good morning, You might remember my asking for help last month with generating a CSR and installing an SSL certificate. I did get that done, and now I have a new problem. If I replace "http://" with "https://" in the address, I get a file not found error. What do I need to do to make sure our application for admission is secure? I'm sort of out of my league here. Thanks for whatever help you can give me :) Cat ----- Catherine E. Reinehr Webmaster & Director of Publications Huntingdon College 1500 E.

by Bobby 10 Apr '09

10 Apr '09

Hi, I'm trying to do pagination with dtml-in; could one of you show my why i can't get the next and previous button from my code below to work? Also, i need to do view per page: 1,2,3,etc. and allow the user select the number of records displayed per page (size) as well. Thanks in advance for any advice. <dtml-in "getTable(table=table,order_by=order_by,sort=sort)" size=10 start=0> <dtml-if sequence-end> <tr> <td colspan=3> <a href="?table=<dtml-var table>&order_by=<dtml-var order_by>&sort=<dtml-var sort>&start=<dtml-var previous-sequence>">previous</a> <a href="?table=<dtml-var table>&order_by=<dtml-var order_by>&sort=<dtml-var sort>&start=<dtml-var next-sequence>">next</a> </td> </tr> </dtml-if sequence-end> </dtml-in>

Mod_Rewrite port 8080
by Bobby 07 Apr '09

07 Apr '09

Hi, I want to use mod_rewrite on Apache to redirect http://internal:80/internal to http://internal:8080/internal so that when the user request http://internal:80/internal, the Zope folder foo will be served up. I still want http://internal:80/ to stay intact so that the contents from port 80 will still be served; just the http://internal:80/internal to point to the Zope folder http://internal:8080/internal. Hope that makes sense. Could someone help me out with the syntax? Tried the syntax below but not getting desired results. Thanks! <VirtualHost internal> ServerName internal RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://internal:8080/VirtualHostBase/http/internal:80/internal/VirtualHostR… [L,P] </VirtualHost>

Does anybody have a recent-ish copy of Znolk wizard product or know where I could get hold of a copy. The original source no longer has it and the one on the zope.org site is very old. In particular I would like it to function with SQLite. Regards Garry

Overriding DateTime
by Tim Knapp 02 Apr '09

02 Apr '09

Hi, I would like to override the DateTime.DateTime class within my functional tests. I have tried mocking (via mocker) and injecting the subclassed DateTime class into sys.modules (results in a TraversalError). The fartherest I've gotten is to set DateTime.DateTime = MySubclassedDateTime in my tests.py, which does work for the code 'within' the package(s) I'm testing but all the Zope core code (i.e. the instance created within PloneTestCase) is still referencing the global DateTime module. Has anyone successfully done this? Thanks in advance, Tim
