metal:fill-slot and tal:condition
by Dragos Chirila 22 Feb '07

Hi everybody, I am stuck with the following problem. I would appreciate it very much if you could help me with it. So I have a ZPT where a macro is defined with several slots; one of the slots like below: <tal:block metal:define-slot="slot_issue"> SLOT DEFAULT CONTENT </tal:block> The common way to put other content in the slot is: <tal:block metal:fill-slot="slot_issue"> CUSTOM SLOT CONTENT </tal:block> Now, in a ZPT that uses the above marco I want to replace the default slot content with other stuff *only* if a condition is fulfilled: <tal:block tal:condition="<condition-code>" metal:fill-slot="slot_issue"> CUSTOM SLOT CONTENT </tal:block> If the <condition-code> returns True then the "CUSTOM SLOT CONTENT" is put instead of the default slot content - correct. If the <condition-code> returns False then nothing will be displayed - this is not correct?!. I also tried somthing like: <tal:block tal:condition="<condition-code>"> <tal:block metal:fill-slot="slot_issue"> CUSTOM SLOT CONTENT </tal:block> </tal:block> In this case the content of the slot is "CUSTOM SLOT CONTENT" in both cases - the result is True or False. The only solution that I can think of is not elegant at all because I have to duplicate the slot_issue's default content: <tal:block metal:fill-slot="slot_issue"> <tal:block tal:condition="<condition-code>"> CUSTOM SLOT CONTENT </tal:block> <tal:block tal:condition="python:not <condition-code>"> SLOT DEFAULT CONTENT </tal:block> </tal:block> Is there other wat to accomplish this? Thank you very much, Dragos

Copy and Paste Problem
by Florian Fahrbach 21 Feb '07

21 Feb '07

Hi all, I hope somebody knows an answer to my rather strange problem. It seems that in our Zope-Installation (2.74) we screwed up the Copy/Cut/Paste-Mechanism. We can not copy any objects in the ZMI at all. The result always is, that the same object ist pasted several times (Paste-Button stays at the bottom of the ZMI) or a copy error occurs. When we empty the caches/cookies etc. of the browser and restart it, we can copy one object, before the same behaviour starts again. Does anyone know what the problem could be? Thank you for your help. Greetings from Germany, Florian

How about changing the following line 996 in /lib/python/zope/publisher/http.py ( as described in http://www.zope.org/Collectors/Zope/2280 ) header_present = 'HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET' in self.request to header_present = 'HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET' in self.request.keys() I think this is a bug. After doing that change, IE6 and IE7 behaved consistently. Regards Jost --------------------------------- Need Mail bonding? Go to the Yahoo! Mail Q&A for great tips from Yahoo! Answers users.

Dieter, Andreas and Daryl Here comes a detailed description of a new Zope-installation I just made on a new Debian (testing) machine. Here are the steps to reproduce my problem. (I'm still not sure it is a problem other than me not understanding how this should work). Downloading Zope wget http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.10.2/Zope-2.10.2.tgz tar -xzvf Zope-2.10.2.tgz cd Zope-2.10.2-final ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/zope make sudo make install sudo ./usr/local/zope/bin/mkzopeinstance.py /usr/local$ sudo chown -R zope.zope zope /usr/local$ sudo chown -R zope.zope zopeinst sudo jed /usr/local/zopeinst/etc/zope.conf <-- set effective-user zope leira:/usr/local/zopeinst/bin# sudo ./runzope Logging in to ZMI directly to port 8080 I add a new Page Template. If the page template contains only hei på deg it saves OK and runs OK. If it contains either of the tal-lines below I get the following error message: <div tal:content="python:unicode('hei på deg','utf8')" /> Compilation failed exceptions.UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe5' in position 33: ordinal not in range(128) <div tal:content="python:u'hei på deg'" /> Compilation failed exceptions.UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe5' in position 26: ordinal not in range(128) <div tal:content="python:'hei på deg'" /> Compilation failed exceptions.UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xe5' in position 25: ordinal not in range(128) In this test I have used IE6 (and it is not passing HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET in the request). By the way: The character 'å' has value 0xe5 in iso-8859-1. Should the above tal-statements have worked? I have done no other configuration on the zope-instances than stated here but are consistant with my problems on another installation at work.

There are 3rd party solutions to use IIS (which cannot proxy on its own), but Apache is all you need. The Zope book has the gist here: - http://www.plope.com/Books/2_7Edition/VirtualHosting.stx That's the latest version, but the version on the Zope site is for 2.6, and as you can see little has changed: - http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZopeBook/2_6Edition/VirtualHosting.… The gist is: - - Zope serves over HTTP. - Apache can /proxy/ HTTP. - The Zope Virtual Host Monster can rewrite the URLs generated by Zope to those required to pass the traffic through Apache. You don't need to do anything on the Zope side other than ensure that the VHM is present - all the work is done by a rewrite rule in the Apache virtual hosts setup. The rewrite rules can be fiddly, and a great resource is the Rewrite Rule Witch: - http://betabug.ch/zope/witch I've mainly done this with Apache 2.0.x, but I have used the same basic setup under 1.3.x - I can't recall if there were any great differences, but I still have one running server with 1.3.x on it, so I should be able to help either way. Can I suggest that you read up and have a play, and come back with any specific questions? I found the rewrite rules very fiddly at first, but soon got used to them - you might need some patience to get to grips with that part, but that's the only bit that caused me any pain. You don't say how you will be connecting Zope to MS SQL Server, but I can recommend the eGenix ODBC DA - it's not free, but it's not expensive either, and if you value your time at all it's cheaper and safer than doing it any other way... HTH! -- Regards, PhilK 'let's hear it for the vague blur'

Zope 2.6.4 + Win32 server
by David VanKirk 21 Feb '07

21 Feb '07

I'm trying to migrate from a Linux server with Oracle to a win32 server with MS SQL Server. I need to run it behind a webserver so that I can connect through SSL. I've tried IIS, Apache + PCGI, and Apache + FastCGI. Has anyone been able to successfully run a Zope + win32 Web Server successfully, that can help. -- David VanKirk
