LoginManager
by D. Rick Anderson 19 Jul '02

19 Jul '02

I'm not sure that this is the right mail forum, but is anybody using LoginManager? We're trying to change from GUF to LoginManager and I'm having some problems with it. I spent forever just trying to get ZPatterns to work right, but that seems like it's installed ok now. Here's what I'm using: Zope 2.4.3 on RH 7.1 ZPatterns 0.4.3b1 LoginManager 0.8.6 and/or 0.8.8b1 (they both do the same thing) LoginManager just shows up in the Product Management as a Broken Product and this is what it gives for traceback: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/Zope/lib/python/OFS/Application.py", line 563, in import_product product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly) File "/usr/local/Zope/lib/python/Products/LoginManager/__init__.py", line 1, in ? import LoginManager, LoginMethods, UserSources File "/usr/local/Zope/lib/python/Products/LoginManager/LoginManager.py", line 7, in ? from Products.ZPatterns.PlugIns import PlugInGroup File "/usr/local/Zope/lib/python/Products/ZPatterns/__init__.py", line 1, in ? import Rack, Specialists, Customizers, AttributeProviders, SheetProviders File "/usr/local/Zope/lib/python/Products/ZPatterns/Rack.py", line 1, in ? from DataManagers import DataManager File "/usr/local/Zope/lib/python/Products/ZPatterns/DataManagers.py", line 6, in ? from AttributeProviders import AttributeProvider File "/usr/local/Zope/lib/python/Products/ZPatterns/AttributeProviders.py", line 7, in ? from Expressions import * File "/usr/local/Zope/lib/python/Products/ZPatterns/Expressions.py", line 38, in ? from DocumentTemplate.DT_Util import Eval, expr_globals, TemplateDict, \ ImportError: cannot import name expr_globals Both versions that I've tried do this. I've checked permissions and tried re-compiling ZPatterns, but it always shows up like this. Any ideas? TIA Rick

Dupe checking a list of tuples
by abg＠comco-inc.com 19 Jul '02

19 Jul '02

Is it possible to remove duplicate records from a list of tuples? Here's a sample of my list. I'd like to make sure a url doesn't occur twice in the list, and delete the offending tuple if it does. [('http://www.news.com/frontdoor/0-1.html?tag=hd_ts', 'CNET'), ('http://www.news.com/shopping/0-1257.html?tag=hd_ts', 'Price comparisons')] I'm sorry if this is elementary, but I'm fairly new to Python and have been pulling my hair out on this one. Thanks, Aaron Gillette abg(a)comco-inc.com

19 Jul '02

Question. In Zope startup, is the directiuve "-t 9" equivilent to: "%1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9" On a fast W2K box, running Zope standalone, with a lot of RAM, what would the optimal number of threads be, for some moderately loaded websites?

From whence came <base>?
by Charlie Reiman 19 Jul '02

19 Jul '02

I have a simple site with two pages /corp/index_html /corp/sub/index_html Both are DTML documents. Both have identical html headers (as far as my eyes can tell). The sub/index_html takex GET arguments, the other does not: /corp/sub/index_html?blah=yep&foo=nope The rendered source for /corp/index_html as seen from the browser has a <BASE> tag I never requested (but really want!) The rendered source for /corp/sub/index_html does not have a <base> tag. This second fact is upsetting. I'd really like to get a <base> tag in there. Aside from manually inserting it, how can I get zope to do whatever magic it did on the first page? Charlie Reiman

initlevel at initialization of product with aq_parent
by Nico de Boer 19 Jul '02

19 Jul '02

Hi all, I'm working on a product that renders treemenu's for websites. Now I have to get an initlevel as starting point for my menu. I've tried the following: def __init__(self, id, title='', initlevel=0): """initialize a new instance of SiteNav""" self.id = id self.title = title self.initlevel = self.getInitLevel() def getInitLevel(self): """returns the initlevel""" initlevel = 0 parent = self while 1: if hasattr(parent,'aq_parent'): parent=parent.aq_parent initlevel = initlevel + 1 else: break return initlevel - 1 When I add a SiteNav object (folderish object) and I put a DTMLMethod in it where I call getInitLevel, I get the correct initlevel. But when I ask for initlevel in the DTMLMethod, I get -1. Doesn't the object has a aq_parent at initialization? Is there a way to do this? Thanx! Greetz Nico

dtml-sqlgroup for other SQL actions
by Ed Leafe 19 Jul '02

19 Jul '02

I think I've gotten the hang of using the dtml-sqlgroup tags for creating variable queries, so I'm wondering if there are related tags that will work for other SQL functions; specifically, Update. I have a table that can be updated from various forms, and the forms will have different numbers of fields, depending on things like security, etc. I'd like to have a single ZSQL method for this, but since the various fields in an SQL Update command are joined by commas, not ANDs, I'm not sure how this can be done. For example, let's say that the ZSQL method for updating a table called 'People' might have the following arguments: cLast, cFirst, cSSN, cPhoneNum. One form might return just the first name and last name, and the SQL should look like: UPDATE People SET <dtml-sqlvar cLast type="string">, <dtml-sqlvar cFirst type="string"> WHERE <dtml-sqltest cSSN op="eq" type="string"> while a second form might pass just last name and phone number, generating this SQL: UPDATE People SET <dtml-sqlvar cLast type="string">, <dtml-sqlvar cPhoneNum type="string"> WHERE <dtml-sqltest cSSN op="eq" type="string"> and a third might pass 'em all: UPDATE People SET <dtml-sqlvar cLast type="string">, <dtml-sqlvar cFirst type="string">, <dtml-sqlvar cPhoneNum type="string"> WHERE <dtml-sqltest cSSN op="eq" type="string"> So is there something I'm missing? Or do I need to code this myself? ___/ / __/ / ____/ Ed Leafe http://leafe.com/ http://foxcentral.net

> > just an FYI... > firedaemon is considered in some circles to be a 'bad' or 'evil' program > so some antivirus software will attempt to clean it... Interesting. Is there some reason for that? Why is it considered bad? Harlow Pinson Indepth Learning Email: hpinson(a)indepthl.com Web: http://www.indepthl.com Voice: 505-994-2135 FAX: 208-475-7678
