add user from python problem
by garry saddington 15 Feb '07

15 Feb '07

The following script adds a new folder with a user folder inside it and then adds a user to the user folder. It works fine but the new user is unable to log in until I go to the ZMI and go to change the user password. I do not need to do anything more than press the change button on this page for the user to be then able to log in using the password specified in the script. Given that I will be adding up to 2000 users at a time with an ammended version of this script, this could become a little inconvenient. Am I doing something wrong? Zope Version (Zope 2.9.0, python 2.4.2, win32) Python Version 2.4.2 (#67, Sep 28 2005, 12:41:11) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] System Platform win32 roles='Manager' domains=[] password='go' confirm='go' name='BogeySmith' forms='7L' forms_obj = getattr(context, forms) forms_obj.manage_addFolder(name) path = str(forms+'/'+name) path_obj = context.restrictedTraverse(path) path_obj.manage_addUserFolder() path2 = str(forms+'/'+name) path_obj2 = context.restrictedTraverse(path2) userfolder = getattr(path_obj2, 'acl_users') userfolder.userFolderAddUser(name, password,roles,domains) regards garry

Does anyone know what happened to FreeZope? It looks like my site (and all other member sites I tried) are gone. Features like registration & bug reporting are broken. thanks Daniel

Zope 2 and Zope 3
by Geoff Gerrietts 15 Feb '07

15 Feb '07

I have a couple questions about the current game plan for Zope development that I was unable to answer for myself by searching through mailing list archives and the zope.org website. I hope my inability to answer them is not merely a symptom of poor search term choices, and I hope someone can answer them for me. I've posted a couple times before (a long time ago) about the large web application I work on; it's many hundreds of KLOC and an unfortunately large percentage of it is DTML. It's still more or less in that state; the realities of being a for-profit business in a rapidly evolving marketplace permit very little time for maintenance or aggressive refactoring of the application. That's the background for my questions; I'm trying to figure out how loudly I can shout "Impending doom!" to upper management without endangering my credibility. 1. Last time I talked to anyone from Zope Corp, the plan was to quiesce Zope 2 in favor of Zope 3. At that time, I think I remember people saying 2.9would be the last in the Zope 2 series. Now there's a 2.10, so clearly it wasn't. How long does a business like mine have before there is no clear upgrade path in the Zope 2 series? Is 2.10 now the final Zope 2 release, or will there be a 2.11 and 2.12? 2. Whenever someone asks about moving an existing application from Zope 2 to Zope 3, there's a round of flip "oh you'll hafta start over" responses. I understand that the two architectures are fundamentally different, and that I'll need to rebuild my object database, etcetera. Am I also correct in believing that all products must be completely rewritten, and that DTML is no longer a supported templating language? Has the users/roles/permissions security structure disappeared or been supplanted? I am trying to ascertain at a glance how much we will need to rebuild for ourselves; if it's enough then the problems we have had with Zope (poor scaling, poor integration with source control) may outweigh the advantages of remaining on the platform. Thanks, --G.

-------------- Original message from larrymcdonnell(a)att.net: -------------- Hi, Thanks for the pointers but how can I trap for the first error. I am populating a list and if the user makes a mistake and uses the wrong application. I want to display only one message and the link to the correct application. With this code the message is repeated for each entry. <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('student_score1', student_score1_temp[loop_counter])"> <dtml-try> <dtml-call expr="create_holistic_score_record(REQUEST)"> <dtml-except IntegrityError> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('dup_rec', 'dup')"> <dtml-if expr="dup_rec=='dup'"> This class already exist in the database - Please use Update </dtml-if> </dtml-try> This class already exist in the database - Please use Update This class already exist in the database - Please use Update ... I just want to stop it after the first error. Thanks in advance, Larry

Error trapping Duplicate entry in a database
by larrymcdonnell＠att.net 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

Hi, I am trying to find a friendlier way of error traping when I am perform some database activities. The one I am looking for first is checking for a duplicate entry in a database. I googled around but I could not find the answer I am looking for. I am using an older version of zope (Zope 2.6.1) and I am still using DTML. Any examples or pointers would be a big help. Thanks in advance, Larry

adding value to the path
by Kate Legere 14 Feb '07

14 Feb '07

When I submit this: <input name="branch/manage_editProperties:method" type="submit" class="form-element" value="Save Changes" / > It works very nicely. I'd like the user to choose the page to amend so I have a select option to choose the page (in this case the one named 'branch' <select size="3" width="100" name="pageName"> <dtml-in "getParentNode().objectItems('DTML Document')" > <dtml-if "id() != 'index_html'"> <dtml-if "id() != 'editProperties'"> <option value="<dtml-var id>"> <dtml-var title_or_id></option> </dtml-if> </dtml-if> </dtml-in> </select> And I think this ought to work.. but it doesn't... <input name=document.propForm.pageName.value+"/manage_editProperties:method" type="submit" class="form-element" value="Save Changes" / > It does absolutely nothing. How do I pass it the value to the input name? Katie

External Method importing modules
by Alan 13 Feb '07

13 Feb '07

Dear List, I have an external method and now I developed I new module in a separated file and then I am trying to make my external method to import it but I am failing here. Where should place my module file in order to be found by my external method? I tried to place it in the same folder of my external method, but no success. Any help would be very appreciated. Many thanks in advance.
