Pilot, a navigational aid for ZMI coders
by Ausum Studio 13 Dec '02

13 Dec '02

Pilot is a simple tool that generates floating menus of a site's folder structure and content, callable by double clicking ZMI's pages. Aimed to CMF portals, I've been using this helpful aid since a long while ago, and now I'd like to share it with the community. I'm currently using it to quickly reach folders, methods, favorites and recent objects, but it can be hacked to become a standard navigational aid for the CMF. Problem is that it uses a javascript menu that is licensed, but it's likely that now there are some other free ones than can be used instead. If anyone knows of any reliable, please let me know so that I can perform the changes and then release the code. More details at the screenshots page.

Hmmm Actually I will take some of this back. It seems even on my single CPU notebook multiple pystones running concurrently do not exhibit the behaviour I would expect from a CPU oriented benchmark.

Newbie: Need help with Openflow Demo, can't login as any of the users
by Jim Lennox 13 Dec '02

13 Dec '02

Thanks in advance for any help. First: I noticed that the Openflow demo that existed in .72 version isn't there anymore, so maybe it doesn't work with the 1.2 code base. Anyway Here is what I have done. Installed the 2.6 Zope on RedHat Linux 7.3 Installed Openflow 1.2 Placed demo in the imports directory >From the import/export screen imported the demo letting the ownership remain as it is. I now have a folder "Demo_english" with various sub folders. There is an acl_users sub folder with all the users. They don't exist at the higher (parent level) acl_users level. Ok, Now I exited my browser and removed the cookies. Brought the browser up, and entered the management screen and tried to log on as one of the users (I tried all of them). As an example, I tried user:alex, pwd: alex I immediately get "Authentication Failed! Do you want to retry?" Am I missing some fundamental import steps. thanks for any help Jim

RE: [Zope] Apache-Squid-Zope, Squid-Apache-Zope.. or just Squid-Z ope?
by sean.upton＠uniontrib.com 13 Dec '02

I think the best way to sum up Squid's configuration is: the problem is not that you need to understand all the configuration options in squid.conf, but you need to understand what to ignore... ;) The same, to some extent, is possibly true of Apache. My thoughts on trying to dive into Squid setup: -> Compile Squid from source, with enough of a file-descriptor ceiling (ulimit & hacking Makefile(s)) that you are not shooting yourself come high traffic time. Use --disable-internal-dns if you want to use /etc/hosts (note, this may have changed somewhere in 2.5PRE+). -> Run squid with ulimit set to give you enough file descriptors. -> Ignore anything/everything related to cache peering in squid.conf if you don't know you need it. -> Ignore this suggestion if you want to use ICP in Zope 2.6 (then read Toby's howto) -> Set the port you want to serve on (80) -> Use a redirector (http://freshmeat.net/projects/pyredir) set this part up in squid.conf -> Set up to 5-6 necessary items in the accel section -> Make sure your acls are set up to allow what you need. -> If you want ssl support, the setup (Squid 2.5) is really no more difficult than apache, with a few gotchas (way URLs are treated internally in Squid data structures is as http://foo not https://foo, so redirtors and ACLs can be confusing). If you try enough to (as much as possible) ignore the other stuff in squid.conf, you are likely okay.

To make it short: - use Apache+Zope if you have a smaller website and you don't like to hurt your brain about the 1000 configuration options of Squid. - use Squid-Zope if you have a high volume website and have some experiences with Squid. Apache offers less related configuration options than you have fingers at your hand. Squid has more than a hundred. -> Apache+Zope=easy to use, easy to setup -> Squid+Zope=requires more work and you should know what you're doing. -aj --On Dienstag, 5.

Re: Zope Couldn't install ZCatalog - or OFSP
by Josef Albert Meile 13 Dec '02

13 Dec '02

Hi, >FYI this has not helped me. I'm still getting these errors, even after I >did >this and deleted the Zclass and all instances of it. Perhaps you're overwritting your Data.fs file with the old one instead of exporting all your contents through the manage interface. I tried both approaches and the first one, which seems to be easier, didn't work for me. So I tried the second one and it worked in my test server. Unfortunatelly I'm on vacations now and I haven't updated my current production server; however, my test server uses real data. As soon as I can, I'll update my server and I'll tell you if I have the same problem.

RE: [Zope] WYSIWYG Editors for Zope?

Hi Brian, >Is there a WYSIWYG html/text editor which can be plugged into Zope? > Structured text is better than nothing, but most all > commercial "big boys" > in CMS products provide WYSIWYG functioinality for the > non-technical types > to create and maintain pages and content. I don't see > anything like this for > Zope yet. when you mean a WYSIWYG editor to use in a browser, I can recommend ACE (Advanced Content Editor). It's available as html-component for use in IE5.5 and up. Unfortunately it's not for free, but it's not too expensive (around 60 dollar at this moment, and I've gotten two upgrades already for free). The license agreemant allows you to alter the source to match your demands and you can use the editor in as many sites/pages as you want. The only limitation is that the license if for one programmer to work with. You can find it at: http://yusasp.com/prj04.asp The examples that are provided with it are focused on asp and IIS, but it's easy to implement in zope. I can write a short how-to if you're interested.

I have heard about somebody doing cool stuff with the CMFTypes product using PyUNO and OpenOffice as a means to read/parse MSWord docs on the server side, effectively allowing you to use External Editor and MSWord to edit word docs, but have them saved as other things (html?) via the OpenOffice filter APIs exposed to CMFTypes via PyUNO. I would post this question to the plone-users or plone-developers lists (sourceforge), as this is new stuff. I'm also interested in this (but on Linux and OSX on the server side, instead of windows), but haven't really had time to investigate.
