Webdav to another server
by Isokangas, Erik HTC/DE/FRA 29 Aug '03

29 Aug '03

Hi, I am in a situation where I need to access (read) files on a webdav server from my Zope application. There's a lot written about accessing Zope with Webdav but I can't find anything useful about using Zope to access other webdav servers (except for a mention about webdav/client.py - but it's not obvious!). In particular, the webdav/web folder server is Win2000/IIS 5.0 and Zope is installed on a Linux box. Can anyone give me some hints on the best approach? Thanks, Erik Isokangas

CMFPhoto/Windows/ImageMagick

Hi, I have installed Zope 2.6.1, CMF 1.4, Plone 1.0.3 and CMF Photo and Photo Album along with the windows version of ImageMagick (ImageMagick-5.5.7-Q8-windows-dll.exe) I can only see original size images. I tested ImageMagick with the command line options and it is installed correctly. How does CMF/Zope know its there? I also restarted Zope. Sean

If it sends a real HTTP request, you should be able to use it. You can find out the request parameter if you don't know it. Simply print the REQUEST object. (You can also use 'REQUEST.text()'.) Wow, that's a lot of punctuation. If it's doing something strange, and doesn't end up in the form, maybe it's in 'REQUEST.other". In any case, you should be able to introspect it, at the very least by submitting to something that will log the contents of the request as above. You can also watch the conversation with various network tools. There's one that's a favorite on this list, but I forget the name. --jcc

Redirect without displaying page
by Jack Hughes 28 Aug '03

28 Aug '03

Hello all, I am trying to integrate our systems with an external email list company. They provide a URL with various arguments relating to email address, first name, last name etc. I need to be able to call (from a python script) the external URL with arguments as if it were a function. I do not want to display the results of the call, other than to validate that the call succeeded. How do I go about achieving this? Is there a python method for doing this?

manage_clone problem, python script solution required please
by Webmaster Expert RH 28 Aug '03

Hi zopers, Here is part of my script container.dest_folder.manage_clone(Item, Item.id) container.temp.manage_delObjects(Item.id) It works perfectly well for me when I'm logged in as manager, but my users get an error (prompted for password again) In the zope log I get : Module OFS.CopySupport, line 268, in manage_clone Module OFS.CopySupport, line 349, in _verifyObjectPaste Unauthorized: <zExceptions.unauthorized.Unauthorized instance at 0x8e83bec> It seems (thank you Dieter) that this is a know bug In searching the archives I found a solution with external method. Unfortunately, my configuration doesn't allow me to use those easily. I must find a workaround in python_script only. Of course I have set the proxy role of the script to 'Manager' I even tried container.dest_folder.manage_pasteObjects(container.temp.manage_copyObjects( Item.id)) container.temp.manage_delObjects(Candidat.id) In the zope log I get : Module OFS.CopySupport, line 146, in manage_pasteObjects Module OFS.CopySupport, line 349, in _verifyObjectPaste Unauthorized: <zExceptions.unauthorized.Unauthorized instance at 0x946862c>

Re: [Zope] 'import' directory accesible from scripting.
by Luis Lavena 28 Aug '03

I think that I start getting the picture: (please correct me if I'm wrong) What I need is my own Folderish (ObjectManager implementation) with a customized manage_importObject() which at the same time call _importObjectFromFile() to handle the "real" file import process. Now the thing is: the database (ZODB) Connection is which parses the file, and take a filename string or a "file" object that support read() function, how do I "mask" the OFS.File object to provide a read() function? just adding a "hook" to the OFS.File that handle the self.data? Ok, hope this wasn't to basic, newbie or stupid for you ;) Thanks for your time. Please excuse my poor english.

Sure! Look at the implementation of the import functionality. It consists of two parts: locating the file and importing from this file. You can use the second part and solve the first part in any appropriate way. Almost surely, the "file" object do not need to be a real file, a file like object will probably sufficient. > or must relly on a limited FTP server > that only allow me upload information to the "import" directory? This has nothing to do with FTP. You can even use FTP (together with a "PUT_factory" (see Zope.org, for details)) to upload "zexp"s. Note, however, that this would be a security risk.

zwiki authentication?
by Kurt Yoder 28 Aug '03

28 Aug '03

So I've got zwiki installed. I can allow anonymous users to modify/add/delete pages. I can also restrict anonymous users to only view pages. So how do I add a "login to edit" link somewhere to the page that allows me to tell zwiki who I'm connecting as? That way I can say "only x, y, and z can edit this page, everyone else can only view it". Thanks for any help -- Kurt Yoder Sport & Health network administrator
