PCGI and WebDAV?
by Greg Fischer 10 Sep '02

10 Sep '02

I just setup Apache on Win2000 with PCGI access to Zope. I am using mod_auth_sspi to authenticate users. It works great, but I ran into a problem. How do I get my WebDav to work now? In order to setup Apache to authenticate you must put the server into REMOTE_USER mode. I noticed that the users I create in Zope now do now have passwords anymore. This is fine, Apache is taking care of that, but, now Zope wont authenticate by itself. This is what I used to setup the authentication. <Location /cgi-bin/Zope.cgi> AuthType SSPI SSPIAuth On SSPIAuthoritative On require group "DOMAIN\GroupName" </Location> If I add the DAV portion to Apache, it still wont work. The errors say "Unable to Authenticate." I do have the mod_dav enabled. I added this to the Location above: DavLockDB c:/temp/davlock Dav on Thanks for any help you may have.

RE: [Zope] Is it possible to pass output from tinytables to a zsq l method?
by Chris Beaven 10 Sep '02

First of all, you won't be getting the end user to access the zsql method directly so you'll need a little wrapper to display the results. EG: show_art (just make it do a <dtml-in wet_query> and display the results inside it) Next, make sure that the wet_query ZSQL method has the 2 variables that it wants to get listed in the "Arguments" box Then just do this: <dtml-in contents> <a href=show_art?begin_art=&dtml-begin_art;&end_art=&dtml-end_art;><dtml-var content> <dtml-var begin_art> <dtml-var eind_art></a><BR> </dtml-in> So now since you are passing the variables to the show_art wrapper, they will be available to the query. -----Original Message----- From: Renier Leenders [mailto:rf.leenders@planet.nl] Sent: Tuesday, 10 September 2002 12:38 p.m. To: zope(a)zope.org Subject: [Zope] Is it possible to pass output from tinytables to a zsql method? Hi there, For a couple of days a try to pass output from a tinytable to a zsql method without any success because the variables exist only during the looping... Tinytable: name: contents columns: content begin_art end_art Looping: <dtml-in contents> <a href=wet_query><dtml-var content> <dtml-var begin_art> <dtml-var eind_art></a><BR> </dtml-in> Zsql method: wet_query select * from <dtml-var id> where artnr >= <dtml-sqlvar begin_art type="string"> and artnr <= <dtml-sqlvar end_art type="string"> Does someone know how i can pass <dtml-var begin_art> and <dtml-var end_art> to the zsql method? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Getting ID of dtml-method
by Kevin Carlson 09 Sep '02

09 Sep '02

Is there a way to get the ID of a dtml method from with the given method itself? Also, is there a way to retrieve the ID of the calling method from inside of standard_html_header? For example: The method index_html calls standard_html_header and I want to be able to retrieve the id of index_html (i.e. "index_html") from inside of standard_html_header. Any ideas? Thanks, Kevin

Re: [Zope-dev] Database Cursors and Gargabe collection ?
by Dieter Maurer 09 Sep '02

09 Sep '02

I do not think, this is a typical "zope-dev" question (development *of* not *with* Zope). Rerouted to Zope(a)zope.org... Romain Slootmaekers writes: > we have a problem using garbage collection to clean up open database > cursors. > ... > class CursorWrapper: > ... > def __del__(self): > self.__cursor.close() > del self.__cursor > print "deleted" > > So in theory, the cursor will be closed on GC. The cyclic garbage collector can not release cycles with objects that have a custom destructor (i.e. a "__del__" method). The reference counting garbage collector can (but it cannot release cycles). Thus, if your cursor wrappers happen to be part of a cycle, they will not be released. From your code, I did not see a hint that this is the case, though... Dieter

Some basic questions on Zope performance/scalability
by Wankyu Choi 09 Sep '02

09 Sep '02

Hi all, First, I apologize for posting this. I'm sure the topic has been discussed time and again, but I couldn't find a definite answer to my queries: 1. I made a custom user folder using MySQL as a storage backend. But I always feel wary about that User Folder method getUsers(). I have about 300,000 users in a MySQL db table. Is this method really meant to return that many users? Or the fundamental design of a Zope User Folder is intended for a small group of users? 2. Again, I have a 300,000-strong user base. Would it be wise to let them create a home folder and start adding things of their own? Could ZODB's FileStorate model take that much data without any problems or without severe perfomance penalty? I'm trying to pull out huge data objects as external files (as I did with NeoBoard's attachments), but I guess there's a limit to that approach too (and it's seemingly stupid not to use ZODB for all the benefits it offers). Simply put, say you already have 300,000 users with tons of data for each of them and you want to put them and their data somewhere in and/or outside of Zope. What would you do? Thanks in advance. Best Regards, Wankyu Choi

Manipulating Structured Text Document using Tree.py
by Colin Leath 09 Sep '02

09 Sep '02

Hello, I'm attempting to create an expandable/collapsible tree type document (e.g. msword outline style) from the body of CMFDocument containing structured text. For some background please visit: http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope-cmf/2002-September/015096.html Below, I've pasted the External Method I've been working on, which instead of the EditableBody of CMFDocument is using a file on filesystem containing STX. My problem is that I'm getting the following error: [Which occurs when the following call is made: tree, rows = tm.cookieTree(tree_root)] Module ZTUtils.Tree, line 139, in getChildren AttributeError: StructuredTextDocument instance has no attribute 'tpValues' Does anyone have any hints about how I should proceed now? Thanks! Colin __doc__='''Method for creating collapsible trees from structured text ''' from ZTUtils import SimpleTreeMaker def StTree(self, REQUEST): raw=open("/home/cleath/Extensions/StTreeOld/tstx",'r').read() import StructuredText st=StructuredText.Basic(raw) st.REQUEST = REQUEST #st.tpValues = None tree_root = st tree_pre = 'tree' tm = SimpleTreeMaker(tree_pre) tm.setSkip('') tree, rows = tm.cookieTree(tree_root) rows.pop(0) print rows

problem: zope freezes with httplib
by Sebastian Lühnsdorf 09 Sep '02

09 Sep '02

hi! we have a problem with a project where zope retrieves web pages from another http server using httplib. the problem is, that at least in some cases Zope freezes until a request is completed (the whole process, all threads). we believe it could be a problem with the threads, however we have no approach to solve this problem. here are the infos: Zope Version (Zope 2.4.1 (source release, python 2.1, linux2), python 2.1.1, linux2) Python Version 2.1.1 (#3, Jan 24 2002, 17:10:04) [GCC 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 2.96-98)] System Platform linux2 running with ZServer ciao, basti -- Sebastian Lühnsdorf beehive KG sfl(a)beehive-eu.com

Where are default/build-in system methods?
by Jaroslav Lukesh 09 Sep '02

09 Sep '02

Hi all, I have problem with codepage. I have set "Lang" property in z2.py, it works OK with codepage sensitive methodl like StructuredText. But I need to set codepage in manage_edit and other pages (all :-) that string in head section: <head> ... <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1250"> ... </head> Do you know where these default build-in methods are? I cannot find it in Zope directory, nor in Zope Root. Many thanks, J. Lukesh
