Unused options for buildout: 'eggs'.
by Fernando Martins 15 Jul '11

15 Jul '11

Hi, I installed zope 2.13.8 per instructions on http://docs.zope.org/zope2/releases/2.13/INSTALL-buildout.html I created an instance outside the main Zope folder. Then I followed the instructions on http://plone.org/documentation/kb/add-ons/installing to try install ZSQLMethods: "Egg-based packages are very simple to install with Buildout." [buildout] ... eggs = Products.ZSQLMethods and run bin/buildout. I get the message: Unused options for buildout: 'eggs'. I read somewhere that I need a recipe but I can't find such thing neither is it clear where to put it inside buildout.cfg. Can someone enlighten me here, please? Frankly, I miss the old drop-in Products folder. There might be advantages with the new system(s), but simplicity is lost and no documentation seems available. Regards, Fernando

Hi all, is it possible to hide port bumber in case of reverse proxy redirecting? I have POUND as reverse proxy and Zope 2.10.13 on port 930, but html BASE tag contain this port number, which I does not want to have there. I do not want to explicit specify base tag at all pages. I prepare new installation, but I cannot remember nor find what I was make before at my old installation, it is 5 years ago. Google does not help me. Many thanks, J. Lukesh

about the leakage in Shared.DC.ZRDB.Results.Results
by Fernando Martins 04 Jul '11

Regarding the leakage in Shared.DC.ZRDB.Results.Results mentioned in: https://mail.zope.org/pipermail/zope/2011-January/176106.html which might very well be the leakage introduced in 2.10 that made ZSQL methods useless, what are the chances of being solved? I see that Tres Seaver made a new package, SQL Adaptor (not useful to me) because of this bug. Is it an indication the bug is too hard to fix? Fernando

is it possible to upgrade from 2.9 to 2.13?
by Fernando Martins 04 Jul '11

04 Jul '11

[resending as original seems to have got lost] I got stuck with 2.9.9 because 2.10 introduced a major leakage in the ZSQL Methods. Now the number of users in my web site have increased and other leakages have become also major issue (e.g., PageTemplates.Expressions.SubPathExpr). I was considering a major upgrade to 2.12 or 2.13 and I was trying 2.13.8. However, how can I install products?? It states in 2.12 "What's new" that they are still working but in fact merely dropping Products in the site-packages does not add a product. Regards, Fernando
