Problem with buildout
by Alex Turner 14 Jan '08

14 Jan '08

I am building a plone3 site using buildout, but I've noticed that the scripts in <path>/parts/zope2/utilities and <path>/parts/zope2/ZODBTools have a different interpreter. So much so that the scripts in ZODBTools don't work on my system because they are trying to use a python that doesn't exist. Alex

The best way
by Garito 14 Jan '08

14 Jan '08

Hi, all! If you have download the ZSM product you could see I put on it a zexp file with prototype and some other js file and a css file plus images This was only a prototype solution to bring you the chance to see how my ideas are but I think this is not a definitive solution Now my question: Which is the best zope way to serve this kind of files trying to avoid any other product dependence? Thanks a lot! -- Mis Cosas http://blogs.sistes.net/Garito

manage_renameObjects and AJAX
by Garito 13 Jan '08

13 Jan '08

Hi! I'm try to implement the edition part of ZSM and I begin with the rename objects functionality I create a InPlaceEditor object to rename every branch but when I submit the form the rename command works ok but the response is the manage_main (or similar) and the tree disappear Is there a way to make manage_renameObjects returns the changed values? If not I need to write another monkey_patched function, isn't it? Thanks! -- Mis Cosas http://blogs.sistes.net/Garito Zope Smart Manager http://blogs.sistes.net/Garito/670

"can't pickle instancemethod objects" in testcase

My code works fine in normal running zope but not when run as a testcase (I'm not using bin/zopectl test if that matters) I get the following error. I feel guilty since I've got this line in my code: transaction.get().commit() (Expense.py#4458) I remember having come across this error before but can't remember what the solution was. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/peterbe/zope/zope285/lib/python/Testing/ZopeTestCase/profiler.py", line 98, in __call__ testMethod() File "testExpenses2.py", line 81, in test_uploadPhotos eids = context.uploadExpenseFiles(files) File "/home/peterbe/zope/zope285/Products/MExpenses/Expense.py", line 4458, in uploadExpenseFiles transaction.get().commit() File "lib/python/transaction/_transaction.py", line 381, in commit File "lib/python/transaction/_transaction.py", line 379, in commit File "lib/python/transaction/_transaction.py", line 424, in _commitResources File "/home/peterbe/zope/zope285/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py", line 462, in commit self._commit(transaction) File "/home/peterbe/zope/zope285/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py", line 503, in _commit self._store_objects(ObjectWriter(obj), transaction) File "/home/peterbe/zope/zope285/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py", line 525, in _store_objects p = writer.serialize(obj) # This calls __getstate__ of obj File "/home/peterbe/zope/zope285/lib/python/ZODB/serialize.py", line 330, in serialize return self._dump(meta, obj.__getstate__()) File "/home/peterbe/zope/zope285/lib/python/ZODB/serialize.py", line 339, in _dump self._p.dump(state) File "copy_reg.py", line 69, in _reduce_ex raise TypeError, "can't pickle %s objects" % base.__name__ TypeError: can't pickle instancemethod objects ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Peter Bengtsson, work www.fry-it.com home www.peterbe.com hobby www.issuetrackerproduct.com

Hi! Thanks Martijn and Matt for your ideas! @Matt: can you explain with more detail the question about REQUEST.response.write()? If the written content is as long as a file like prototype is not a very heavy solution? The contents of the zexp file are only js files and images (static content) and I'm using Zope2 What about the functionality of the freemind view? What do you think about?

Hi, I am unable to log-in into the my zope server. This just happened because I have not changed my log-in info. Afterwards I also tried to create emergency user and still unable to login. I used the plone3_buildout to build the zope and plone. And what I noticed was that i have 2 zpasswd.py files in my installation. one here: C:\optilux\bin\parts\zope2\utilities and another one here : C:\>cd optilux\bin\parts\zope2\lib\python\zope2\startup\misc Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks. Kamal

Using md5 with allow_module
by Running Clam 08 Jan '08

08 Jan '08

Hi, I have a need to generate an md5 hash for an XML fragment generated by TTW Zope code. I thought I could do this with "allow_module" - I have a pseudo-product with an __init_,py that contains: - # Global module assertions for Python scripts from Products.PythonScripts.Utility import allow_module allow_module("md5") In my TTW python script, I have: - import md5 hash=md5.new() hash=hash.update('test') ...but when I execute the script I get: - Error Type: Unauthorized Error Value: The container has no security assertions. Access to 'update' of (md5.md5 object at 0xb98ab00) denied. I'm basing this on: - http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZDG/current/Security.stx ...specifically the section entitled " Utility Functions For Allowing Import of Modules By Through The Web Code". I thought I understood this, and have used it with other Python modules, but based on what is happening with the md5 module, I obvioulsy don't! Can someone clue me in, or point me towards more recent or explicit documentation, please? -- Cheers, Philip

[WARNING] Nasty bug detected in "ManagableIndex"
by Dieter Maurer 08 Jan '08

08 Jan '08

Today, I detected (and fixed) a nasty bug in my "ManagabelIndex". The bug affects indexes with "TermType=='DateInteger'". When for such an index a "DateTime" value is converted to a "DateInteger", the input is rounded up to a "Date" rather than rounded down. Because this is applied uniformly to all "DateTime" values, the bug becomes visible only when true "Date" values and "DateTime" values are both involved. The bug is fixed in version 1.7.3 which can be found at <http://www.dieter.handshake.de/pyprojects/zope#ManagableIndex> After "ManagableIndex" is updated, all affected indexes needs to be reindexed (as otherwise the update makes things worse: the indexed values have used rounding up while the queries use rounding down). -- Dieter

[Zope] Wendy Stevens Nashville, So You Want To Start A Home Business
by Super Star 08 Jan '08

08 Jan '08

Wendy Stevens Nashville Tennesee, So You Want To Start A Home Business Wendy Stevens Franklin Tennesee So you want to start a home business, and don't know where to begin. Like any other business, research the company your interested in. Find out all you can about their business practices, their creditability, what they offer and exactly what you will be doing in this home business. When researching a business, keep in mind these 3 red flags: 1. Introduction Material Costs Money. This information should be free. It introduces the company, tells what they do, what they offer, and how to sign up. 2. Promise of Getting Rich Quickly in Less Than 10 hours a Week. Though it is possible, it isn't probable. It takes time to build a business and clientele. You should expect to work more than 10 hours a week, and it take awhile to build any income. 3. Limited Time Offers. A company is making promises (especially of quick wealth), but you only have a certain amount of time to enroll; I'd take a step back and reevaluate the situation. Generally, these are scams. There are reputable companies that use some of these techniques, just make sure to do your research. My best advices is look for a business that interests you, do the research to enable you to make the best decision possible, have realistic expectations, and enjoy your endeavors.
