Zope threads on Slackware
by Heimo Laukkanen 03 Aug '03

03 Aug '03

Hi all, urgent need for help on Zope threads on Slackware linux. I'm not familiar with slackware and the sysadmin is not familiar with Python, but the situation is that somehow Zope does not run more than one thread on the system. Python is compiled with threads - and there seemed to be no errors on that. Zope is configured to start 4 threads. It looks like Zope tries to start the threads, but these threads die very fast ( in microseconds or so ). Any help on debugging would be appreciated. -huima

Exception Handling Email
by Kevin Gill 02 Aug '03

02 Aug '03

On my web-site, when an exception occurs, I email the http request and the exception traceback to myself. A few times when I have done something really stupid, I have created an even which results in a large number of exceptions. In the last week I have got nearly 1000 exception reports. I am planning to do something which suppresses duplicate reports or at least would suppress them for an hour or so. Has this been done already and is there a recipe somewhere? Thanks Kevin Gill

Automatic authenticating users in Zope behind IIS
by Carsten Gehling 02 Aug '03

02 Aug '03

I am going to use Zope to form an intranet for a TV station. The situation is, that all users (using Windows 2000 workstation and Internet Explorer 5.5) are logging on to an Active Directory Server. The intranet is to be implemented with Zope running behind IIS 5.0 (or the newer one if it can solve the problem). IIS and IE has a special function: If the directory security is set to ONLY "NT Challenge/response" AND the intranet URL is set in IE to the security level "Local Intranet", the user need not make a separate authentication to enter the intranet. Instead IE sends to IIS the user details previously entered when loggin onto the Active Directory Server. IIS then validates the user against the same AD (and also checks with user permissions on the directory/website). If the user is authenticated and have permissions to execute scripts, the script in question is called with an extra server variable called "LOGON_USER". This work with both ASP and eg. PHP. I would like this to work with Zope as well, so that Zope does not display an authentication dialog box. I see two ways to do this, however I do not know if it would work, or even how: 1) Zope is run behind IIS with PCGI. All users with access to the intranet must be added to the permissions for the intranet's root rolder. Zope user folders are made with the special LDAPUserFolder 2) Zope is run as a standalone server. Zope must simulate IIS's challenge/response system. Zope user folders are made with the special LDAPUserFolder Have anyone tried this before? I'm still at the level of getting PCGI to work properly. ;-) Any help is much appreciated. - Carsten

When Inheritance ISN'T Such A Good Idea...
by beno 02 Aug '03

02 Aug '03

Hi; Search engines don't like Web sites with deep directory structures. I use such structure to develop my Web sites to take advantage of inheritance. I keep all my Python scripts in a separate directory as well as the basic content of each page. This, of course, makes things neat and tidy in my Zope. So I don't want to simply throw everything in the root dir! Is there a way to call scripts and Template Pages from other pages such that it renders as a simple URL without deep directories (e.g., http://mysite.com/main.html ) or frames? TIA, beno

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, I am trying to get my head arround on how to build a registration form, that has a one-to-many relationship. Basically, what I am trying to do is to have two "tables" one listing business_addresses and on the other "table" to list all emplolyees for that business, thus creating a one-to-many relation between the business_address object and the employees. If anyone can point me on how to achieve this, I'll be most greatfull Cheers Norm zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz zz/********/z/****\zzz|****\*\zz|*******|z z/^^^^^^^^/z/******\zz|*^^^^|*|z|*|^^^^^|z norman khine zzzzzz/**/z|**/^^\**|z|*|zzz|*|z|*|zzzzzzz mailto:norman@khine.net zzzzz/**/zz|*|zzzz|*|z|****/*/zz|*****|zzz purley z/******/zz|*|zzzz|*|z|*|^^zzzzz|*|^^^|zzz UK zzZ/**/zzzz|**\^^/**|z|*|zzzzzzz|*|zzzzzzz zz/******/zz\******/zz|*|zzzzzzz|*|*****|z z/^^^^^^/zzzz\^^^^/zzz|^|zzzzzzz|^^^^^^^|z zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 7.0.4 iQA/AwUBPxYvY3GyKIoODyswEQJrfgCfZuUGEoUbk8jRaNP5WOIgH+oEXYoAnAr/ YtjjTqZNoU3R8Mt6nehF6NS/ =H7mL -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

New zope.org status update
by Brian Lloyd 02 Aug '03

02 Aug '03

Hi all - Well the migration script is running great -- as it has been since 10a this morning :) It's currently converting member folders for users whose names start with 's' - so it has a little while still to go. It's a few hours over what I guesstimated it would take and still working, so I think I'm going to shoot for going live on Saturday. As exciting as it is watching names roll by in the log, I don't think it buys us much to go live at 4am vs. later on Saturday :) Brian Lloyd brian(a)zope.com V.P.

Hi all - sorry for the wide cross-posting, but I want to be sure that the word gets out. Starting today, we will be starting the transition of zope.org to a new look and a new platform. We plan to do the final content migration later today, so if you are a frequent content contributor to zope.org, you may want to hold off on new additions until the new site goes live (expected to be Friday). I've put a prominent notice on the current zope.org homepage with the same info. Thanks, and we'll see you on Friday with a new zope.org! Brian Lloyd brian(a)zope.com V.P.

getting parent in product
by Christopher N. Deckard 01 Aug '03

01 Aug '03

Hello, I've written a ZMI configurable PutFactory Product to allow our users to be able to configure what types of objects are created when files are PUT using WebDav. What I would like to add is the ability to call a script immediately after the object is created. The script could do things like auto-catalog images in a ZCatalog or send out an email every time a file is uploaded. Looking at the code in webdav/NullResource.py NullResources.PUT(): ob = (factory(name, typ, body) or self._default_PUT_factory(name, typ, body) ) # We call _verifyObjectPaste with verify_src=0, to see if the # user can create this type of object (and we don't need to # check the clipboard. try: parent._verifyObjectPaste(ob.__of__(parent), 0) except Unauthorized: raise except: raise 'Forbidden', sys.exc_info()[1] # Delegate actual PUT handling to the new object. ob.PUT(REQUEST, RESPONSE) self.__parent__._setObject(name, ob) RESPONSE.setStatus(201) it doesn't look like I can do what I'd like to do without overriding NullResource.PUT(). Any thoughts on how to accomplish this? Thanks, -Chris -- -------------------------------------------------------------------- Christopher N.

I reinstall it again and the problem is gone now. Perhaps the patches of windows, which I installed just after installing this product, did something wrong.
