How does one create a user object based on an arbitrary username so that one can use methods like getRoles() or hasRoles() on it? -- Bryan C. Andregg Duke University Medical Center Programmer Dept. of Anesthesiology e <bryan.andregg(a)duke.edu> p +1 919 684 6201

Linux vs. UNIX vs. BSD
by Peter Bengtsson 20 Aug '02

20 Aug '02

If I get a lot of good comments on this I'll make it a little how to on zope.org What *nix is best to use with Zope? For dev and desktop I personally prefer Mandrake, but what I like becomes irrelevant when it's time to set up a serious server for production use. What matters then is: - performance - configurability - ease-of-use and lack of hacks - integration with RDBMS - backup possibilities - ZEO (load balancing and caching). Does anybody have any real experience of production deployment with various *nix'es. Which ones are better than other and which ones to avoid. The "ease-of-use and lack of hacks" is important to me since I'm just an experienced *nix user. Far from expert. Thank you, Peter --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Zope Binary Release Changes for Zope 2.6
by Matthew T. Kromer 20 Aug '02

20 Aug '02

Zope is currently released in three binary formats: Windows - i386 Solaris 2.6 - SPARC Linux RH 5.2 - i386 All binary releases come with python 2.1.3, built without large file support. We are proposing to change the binary distributions to newer releases, at least on the Solaris and Linux platforms. The new Solaris binary would be Solaris 2.8. The new Linux binary would be RedHat 7.2 based (i.e. glibc 2.1). It is very likely that the supplied Pythons would be built with large file support *enabled* for these platform, unless some unforseen compatibility issue arose. If there are requirements for keeping the binary distributions based on the older software, we need to understand these requirements. Please follow up with this thread on the zope-dev(a)zope.org list if you wish to participate. -- Matt Kromer Zope Corporation http://www.zope.com/

I have moved a site from 2.33 to 2.51 a while ago, and now the customer is complaining that stx dosn't work anymore. Especially the tables. So I wondered if there is new docs anywhere that I can see. regards Max M "klaatu verata niktu"

proxypass and squishdot
by Ed Colmar 20 Aug '02

20 Aug '02

Hey all.. I've finally got proxypass happening, and I'm running into a little snag with my existing squishdot sites... Everywhere on the site the proxypass rules work great, but in squishdot it likes to put in two slashes, like so: http://www.starrave.org//discussion/1029622610/index_html Anyone seen this before... I probably just did something dumb... =( here are my proxy rules: ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8080/starrave/ ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:8080/starrave/ ProxyPass /p_ http://127.0.0.1:8080/p_ ProxyPass /misc_ http://127.0.0.1:8080/misc_ and for my siteroot I have: Title: starrave Base: http://www.starrave.org path: / Is this correct?

DTMLFile, the mysterious animal
by Oliver Bleutgen 20 Aug '02

20 Aug '02

Can somebody explain to me what really happens when I have a method in my product like DTMLFile('www/main.dtml', globals(), filter='Image'). My problem is that I want to modify the stock main.dtml in order to show only a subset of contained objects, so I change the line <dtml-in objectItems ...> to <dtml-in "objectItems(filter)" ...> and now I get a TypeError, "object of type 'list' is not callable" I know that something like OrderedFolder etc. might do what I want, but I'm curious about what really happens here. cheers, oliver
