Problem setting up an apache proxy to Zope's webDAV service.
by Alex Coventry 01 Aug '03

01 Aug '03

Hi. I have the following rewrite rule in my httpd.conf: RewriteRule ^/webDAV(.*) http://localhost:1981/VirtualHostBase/https/coventry.mit.edu:443/webDAV/Vir… [L,P] This proxies webDAV requests for https://coventry.mit.edu/webDAV/ to the zope service running on port 1981. Attempting to open that URL in the webDAV client Goliath results in these requests being recorded in Z2.log: OPTIONS /VirtualHostBase/https/coventry.mit.edu:443/webDAV/VirtualHostRoot/ HTTP/1.1 PROPFIND /VirtualHostBase/https/coventry.mit.edu:443/webDAV/VirtualHostRoot/ HTTP/1.1 However, this results in a Not Found error. The full record from the error log is at the bottom of this email. It seems to be failing on an attempt to access https://coventry.mit.edu/PROPFIND. Why it has decided to try to access the webDAV method as if it were part of the URL is beyond me. I'd be grateful to anyone who could tell me what I'm doing wrong here. Alex.

Performance requirements and ZEO
by bart hubbard 01 Aug '03

01 Aug '03

I'm working on a project to build a public website using Zope, and am in a position where I need to spec and order the hardware before beginning the work on the site. We're going to plan for 500,000 hits/day as a benchmark. I'm leaning towards a ZEO configuration, with a dedicated ZEO Storage Server and 2 ZEO Client machines, with a load-balancer up front. This way, the worst case is the performance isn't up to par, and I can just toss another machine at it as a ZEO Client. Here's the question: is there any benefit to having dual-processor machines on any of these? I think we can afford 3 of them, if necessary, but is it even needed? I was planning on going with Dual-Xeon 2.8 GHz boxes running Linux. I'd rather not run more than one instance of Zope on the clients, btw. Also, I'm having trouble finding info on getting SSL working in a ZEO setup. Are there any docs out there I should read? much thanks, bart

Permission for packing database
by Marc Burgauer 01 Aug '03

01 Aug '03

I would like to set up a CRON job to daily pack a Zope database. The application does some heavy text processing and consequently the database can grow half a gig per day just because of keeping all the transactions, while the data to keep is just a few megs. Because I have to type the password in clear text into the script for CRON (I intend to use wget), I'd like to create a user with a dedicated role that can do nothing, but do the packing. I could not find which permission is required for this. Can anybody tell me what the minimum privileges are for packing the database? OR can the superuser account be used for this? (With packing I mean: /Control_Panel/Database/manage_pack) Cheers Marc

More verbose undo/transaction desciptions
by Carsten Gehling 01 Aug '03

01 Aug '03

Is it possible to make the Undo tab's list of transactions more verbose? Say that I change the value of one property of an object, and then at a later time change another property of the same object. In the object's Undo tab, there's only displayed, that I called the "editTheObject-something" method twice, not which properties that were changed. Is it something that I tweak in my product's code? - Carsten

Disappointed by VerboseSecurity
by Eugene Morozov 01 Aug '03

01 Aug '03

Hello! I've just installed VerboseSecurity product to resolve problems with my site but it doesn't print anything really useful: Unauthorized: Your user account does not have the required permission. Access to 'title' of (DTMLDocument instance at 8fb4738) denied. Your user account, Anonymous User, exists at /acl_users. Access requires one of the following roles: ['Authenticated', 'Manager']. Your roles in this context are ['Anonymous']. (Also, an error occurred while attempting to render the standard error message.) But I want to know access to `title' of which DTML Document is denied. I have plenty of DTML Documents including each other and methods querying `title' property. :(( Eugene

NameError Problem with FileLibrary example.
by Bun Topping 01 Aug '03

01 Aug '03

Hi, I'm a complete Zope newie here, I've scanned the archives and I can't see a useful pointer to help me completely explain/solve my problem, it could be one of those 'so obvious, no one's had to ask before...' things. I've just installed Zope 2.7.0-b1, python 2.3 and CMF 1.3.1. By way of learning and testing the installation I've looked at the 4 examples supplied. The FileLibrary example doesn't work and I get the following in the error log when I try to upload a file (any file, big, small, text, binary etc.): Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 98, in publish * Module ZPublisher.mapply, line 88, in mapply * Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 39, in call_object * Module Shared.DC.Scripts.Bindings, line 252, in __call__ * Module Shared.DC.Scripts.Bindings, line 283, in _bindAndExec * Module Products.PythonScripts.PythonScript, line 320, in _exec * Module Script (Python), line 6, in addFile <PythonScript at /Examples/FileLibrary/addFile used for /Examples/FileLibrary/Files> Line 6 * Module Script (Python), line 6, in LimitExceeded <PythonScript at /Examples/FileLibrary/addFile used for /Examples/FileLibrary/Files> Line 6 NameError: global name '__name__' is not defined I did read some references to problems with imported ZClasses but, at this early stage on the learning curve, that didn't really explain much to me. Can anyone suggest what is happening here? In particular, is this problem a symptom of a SNAFU installation or is it just the example that is SNAFU? If it's the example then I could learn a lot by just knowing how to fix it. OTOH, if the installation is stuffed, perhaps the best option is to start again from scratch. Thanks. -- Mark <sesamoid(a)ntlworld.com>

Woha, that's news to me ! Thanks ! Seems to be the most straight forward way to work arond this is to use -i option ... Though I suspect the 2.4 kernel, and maybe 2.6, might have ways to bind to specific CPU's ... Something to keep in mind anyways. I'm curious, why pystones / 50 ? My machine is a 4 CPU, do I still use 50 ? Also, my pystones/50 is 156, which, from reading what i could find on the topic, is low (Default Zope is 500, Plone talks about 750). Mind you the server as a whole isn't very busy (Linux's procinfo says 85% idle!) Is this right ? Also, should pystones be run on an idle system ? Does it matter ? Thanks to this, I've now discovered the -O option, which I've already put into use, we'll see if that improves things. Thanks again for the eye opener ...
