ZPT problems upgrading 2.9.6 to 2.10.2
by Pablo Ziliani 08 Feb '07

08 Feb '07

Hi all again, As I mentioned in my previous email I'm in the middle of an upgrade from 2.9.6 to 2.10.2, and getting (at least) a couple of errors: Sometimes when a ZPT that gets content from the database (postgres, psycopg 2.0.4) is called, it raises the following UnicodeDecodeError: """ Module zope.tal.talinterpreter, line 754, in do_insertStructure_tal UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 164: ordinal not in range(128) """ I've also seen it failing in presence of a 0xc2 byte, and I haven't tested if this is the usual behavior for a non ascii. I have the following directives in the zope.conf file: - rest-input-encoding utf-8 - rest-output-encoding utf-8 - default-zpublisher-encoding utf-8 All my "admin" forms have an accept-charset="utf-8". So, any hint on why it uses the ascii codec? am I omitting anything? If the problem is in the database, is there any way to pass a "replace" or "ignore" argument for unicode error handling? (maybe the DB should do that?). Again, although I don't really know how much garbage was being actually served, the same requests worked under 2.9.6. BTW, I don't think I can isolate where this offending insertion occurs from this traceback (I might be wrong on this, but I think I remember that in previous versions of Zope you could get the line number, or at least the actual culprit's filename) Also, my main template (the file that contains the macro that is used by most other pages) is showing this message when editing TTW: """ Macro expansion failed exceptions.NameError: name 'widget' is not defined """ And that's because I have this code: <tal:block condition="PAGE/widgets" repeat="widget PAGE/widgets"> <metal:singleton use-macro="python:path('context/widgets_sidebar.html/macros/' + widget)" /> </tal:block> Of course the expected macro does exist in the file when the variable "widget" is evaluated. This not only shows when editing the template itself, but also when doing it on every page that uses it. No, the checkbox "Expand macros when editing" is not selected an any level. Fortunately, this doesn't prevent the page from being served properly. It does show this warning in the log, though (I can see it when something ELSE fails afterwards): """ Module zope.pagetemplate.pagetemplate, line 117, in pt_render - Warning: Macro expansion failed - Warning: exceptions.NameError: name 'widget' is not defined """ Thanks in advance and sorry for the length of this post.

08 Feb '07

Hello everyone and thanks for your help! I am doing a plugin for PAS and put on that plugin two methods: authenticatedCredentials and extractCredentials First works ok, but extract don´t work, it is its code: creds = {} login = request.get('__ac_name', '') if login: # Look in the request for the names coming from the login form login = request.get('__ac_name', '') password = request.get('__ac_password', '') if login: creds['login'] = login creds['password'] = password if creds: creds['remote_host'] = request.get('REMOTE_HOST', '') try: creds['remote_address'] = request.getClientAddr() except AttributeError: creds['remote_address'] = request.get('REMOTE_ADDR', '') return creds it looks as if it working because it put welcome user, but when I press "Continue to the portal" and I go to start page,the user of the portal isn´t already validate. What can i do???Thanks I want to sustitute credentials_cookie_auth and credentials_basic_auth for my plugin.Thanks again

documentation about the ":method"
by Manuel Spuhler 08 Feb '07

08 Feb '07

Hello, I posted this question in the Plone-Users List, but it might be more a Zope stuff. I am looking for some documentation about the ":method" used in some forms, for instance name="discussion_reply:method", but can't find anything. Thanks for any pointers Manuel Spuhler

Hi Marco, thanks for your input. What I can't understand is that in some case the string before the ":method" is the id of the current template, so I have "current_template:method" and 'current_template' is a page template, not a method, that's why I don't get it. regards M. 2007/2/7, Marco Bizzarri <marco.bizzarri(a)gmail.com>: > On 2/7/07, Manuel Spuhler <manuel.spuhler(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > Hello, > > > > I posted this question in the Plone-Users List, but it might be more a > > Zope stuff. > > > > I am looking for some documentation about the ":method" used in some > > forms, for instance name="discussion_reply:method", but can't find anything. > > > > Thanks for any pointers > > > > Manuel Spuhler > > I can't provide pointers, but can share what I understand about it. > > If the user clicks on an input submit with the name "testMethod:method", the > testMethod will be invoked instead of the action of your form. > > So, in your example, if you click on the discussion_reply, the discussion_reply > method/script will be called instead. > > Regards > Marco > -- > Marco Bizzarri > http://iliveinpisa.blogspot.com/ > -- Manuel Spuhler Développeur Web - www.rsr.ch Radio Suisse Romande 30, av.

zope form server and workflow
by Tim Nash 07 Feb '07

07 Feb '07

I'd like to get zope developers advice. I'm interested in the possibility of developing a system by putting together several zope instance that talk to each other via web services. I'd like to use zope as a RESTful server but I am novice zope user. I have only built one product and that was over a year ago. What I would like to do is the following: I'd like to be able to use zope as a url addressed storage system for e-forms. These are forms like you would find in a hospital clinic. There would be a gui interface that would be separate from the zope server (maybe it would also run in a different zope server but it could also be built in php or jsp). The gui pulls a blank e-form by calling http://hospital.org/form_service/patientCareForms/12465.pdf and pre-populates it with patient data taken from the session. Gui then stores the partially completed e-form. MRN is a unique number associated with a patient and FIN is unique to the MRN as well as the current encounter (or visit to the clinic) http://hospital.org/cardiovascular/MRN/FIN/date/uniqueid_12465.pdf then at a later time, gui recalls the same e-form http://hospital.org/cardiovascular/MRN/FIN/date/uniqueid_12465.pdf and sends it to a users mailbox. The mailbox is a zope workflow service http://hospital.org/workflow_service/dr_phil/date/uniqueid_12465.pdf Dr. Phil signs it and sends it to become part of the final medical record and stored in a relational database. The eform data is processed http://hospital.org/workflow_service/process_eform/12465.pdf And the pdf is sent for storage: http://hospital.org/stored_forms/cardiovascular/MRN/FIN/date/uniqueid_12465… Is this possible in zope? Is it even a good idea performance wise? The tough part to me is 1. calling a url with two consecutive url parts that are dynamically generated: /MRN/FIN 2. doing inserts into dynamic areas such as the final storage step. A system like this is would let the physician's use e-forms that look just like the paper forms they are used to and it could be scaled up quickly.

Zope Products and proprietary software
by Marco Bizzarri 07 Feb '07

07 Feb '07

Hi all. I would like to know if someone can provide infos on the following topic: we have developed OpenFlow, which is released under GPL. A company is distributing a proprietary product based on Zope and OpenFlow. I suspect that if they want to do so, they should have a different licence from us. Can someone provide further insight? Regards Marco -- Marco Bizzarri http://iliveinpisa.blogspot.com/

Simple Item without undo revisions?
by Dennis Schulz 07 Feb '07

07 Feb '07

Actually it is not a folder but an object that subclasses SimpleItem, that I would like to stop from saving revisions. Maybe is there a base class that has not undo support but supports most other things?

Appropriate Photo / Photo Folder for Zope 2.10.2?
by Pablo Ziliani 06 Feb '07

06 Feb '07

Hello all, I'm having trouble to find an appropriate version for the Photo/Photo Folder product to run under 2.10.2. I'm currently using Roug's 1.3.1[1] which throws some warnings upon start[2]. Also, there's a more recent ExtFile[3] product that I'd like to use if it played well with Photo. Maybe I should use the (much older) Zope3 version?[4] Can anybody please give me a hand with this? (working links are appreciated) TIA, Pablo [1] http://www.zope.org/Members/Roug/Photo [2] WARNING Init Class Products.Photo.Photo.Photo has a security declaration for nonexistent method 'jpgcomment' 2007-02-06 10:53:11 WARNING Init Class Products.Photo.Photo.Photo has a security declaration for nonexistent method 'jpgcomment' /Products/Photo/__init__.py:32: DeprecationWarning: The ImageFile module will be removed in Zope 2.11. Use App.ImageFile instead. from ImageFile import ImageFile [3] http://www.zope.org/Members/shh/ExtFile [4] http://svn.zope.org/photo/ I guess, since the link in rbrickers' Z2 version page is broken (http://www.zope.org/Members/rbickers/Photo)
