ROLES=['Projectmanager','Teammember','Teamleader','ZMI'] for role in ROLES: self.REQUEST.set('role',role) self.manage_defined_roles(submit='Add Role',REQUEST=self.REQUEST) this piece of code is called when adding an instance of the product.

Serving video out of Zope
by Dennis Allison 18 Feb '03

18 Feb '03

It looks like we'll need to serve streaming Dvideo out of Zope in some generally playable format (IE, Mozilla, Opera, etc.) on a variety of platforms (Wintel, MACS (MacOS 8.6, 9, 10), Linux, etc.). The format's somewhat open, but since bandwidth is a consideration and the video streams are significant (an hour to 90 minutes), MPEG is probably not a first choice. It's been suggested that the right control language might be SMIL. Anyone have experience in this arena they'd be willing to share. What works? What are the hidden gotchas?

[...] Interesting: the objects I'm working with now were imported into a clean 2.6.1 installation after being exported (in binary) from a 2.6.0 installation. I have not tried versioning with an object created wholely in 2.6.1. I would just like to be able to unlock the versions that are currently installed. Unfortunately I don't know enough about how ZODB works, nor do I have the cycles right now to dig into the source and figure it out. BTW, Dieter, I further explored the cookie angle, and was able to watch the version cookie come into existence and disappear as I join and quit the versions. This does not appear to be the issue. I'm a bit nonplused by this turn of events. -tree -- Tom Emerson Basis Technology Corp.

Having troubles using exUserFolder with Postgres
by David Mitchell 18 Feb '03

18 Feb '03

Hello everyone, I'm trying to set up exUserFolder to authenticate against a Postgres database. When I try to set it up, I keep getting this error: Error Type: NameError Error Value: global name 'MessageDialog' is not defined immediately following the "Choose Authentication Type" screen. Versions: Zope Version (Zope 2.6.0 (binary release, python 2.1, linux2-x86), python 2.1.3, linux2) Python Version 2.1.3 (#1, Sep 19 2002, 13:15:46) [GCC egcs-2.91.66 19990314/Linux (egcs-1.1.2 release)] and I'm downloading the latest exUserFolder 0.10.10. I've tried downloading it from both zope.org and sourceforge; the versions are identical, and both are failing for me in an identical manner... I'm using Postgres 7.3.1. My Postgres DB is accessible from Zope, and the DB connection is configured at the same level as I'm trying to install exUserFolder. exUserFolder sees the DB connection fine. I've tried lots of different combinations of configuration settings (Postgres/ZODB, with/without membership, etc.) and it's always failing for me at the same point. I've tried manually building the "passwd" and "userproperties" tables as per the pgScheme.sql file, but that doesn't make any difference. The Changes.txt file for exUserFolder describes what may be the same problem as being fixed in version 0.10.9. Thinking the fix may have somehow disappeared from 0.10.10, I scrubbed 0.10.10 and installed 0.10.9 - problem didn't change. Has anyone else come across this problem? Any suggestions what else to check? For what it's worth, everything else Zope-ish (and otherwise) on this box is working fine - it's just exUserFolder that's giving me problems. Thanks in advance for any help Regards Dave Mitchell

I have *NEVER* encountered any of the bugaboos about obfuscation or excessive code in it that have been claimed to be its faults. I use it in an admittedly complex presentation layer, and it provides excellent support for everything I need to do there. Python does the heavy lifting just fine, and I see no reason to change this part of my design. > ...not unless some of its major current flaws are corrected.

It's a much more specialized language (HTML documents *only*), looks *really* obfuscated. Stuffs all its code into HTML attributes which is great for hiding the code away, but awful if you want to see the document structure. DTML and Python work fine together, and are capable of handling the whole range of tasks I need. ZPT+Python cannot. So ZPT is neither necessary nor sufficient.

Anyone using Leo?
by Crosbie Fitch 17 Feb '03

17 Feb '03

I'm thinking about using Leo for Python script editing (via ExternalEditor) http://sourceforge.net/projects/leo/ I'm just wondering if anyone else is using it or has used it, and whether it's 'a good idea'? Is Leo a good match for Zope, or is there some duplication and conflict between what they're both trying to do?

Re: [Zope] Re: [Zope-mosx] Local FS files "not found"
by baiewola＠netscape.net 17 Feb '03

I'm going with the theory that starting Zope as an OSX service caused the problem, since this product was previously working, and that's the only major change I've made recently. Steve, do you have it running as an MOSX service on your machine? If so, do you mind telling me whether it runs under "nobody" or someone else? I was never able to get my OS to recognize the -u switch when starting up, so my Zope runs under "nobody." Here are some steps I took: * Double-checked that there were no spaces or other oddities in the basepath. There were none. * Zope is running as an MOSX service as nobody, which is an unprivileged user. Tried giving "nobody" various privileges, but that made no difference. * The local directories I'm trying to give access to are in a subdirectory of /library/webserver/documents/ Subdirectory is owned by myself:webteam. The subdirectory is shared with "webteam." "webteam" includes users who make changes to that portion of my site. * I added nobody and root to the group "webteam" just to see what would happen but it didn't make a difference. Privileges were rwxrwxrw- * Tried making the privileges rwxrwxrwx on the /library/webserver/documents/subdirectory but that didn't make a difference. * Actually shut down and restarted Zope after each of these steps. Argh. Any further clues, anyone?
