eating crow

OK, I'll publicly humilate myself now. My anonymous user problem was due to my own oversight. I incorrectly believed that having turned off permission acquisition and limiting 'View' access to a few select roles would be sufficient regarding DTMLFiles. I believe, and am not completely sure, that this is not the case because they are global having been 'instatiated' via: index_html = DTMLFile('index_html', globals()) within a product. setting all DTMLFiles within a security.declareProtected('index_html',etc...) did the trick, which of course makes sense in hindsight. The clue I got was that if I came through a management screen the user was being pushed through as expected. So, I apologize to anyone who may have interpreted my frustration/desperation as inappropriate. Zope can be a dark mistress. Scott Pierce Sonopress US - Digital Services 828.658.6157

RE: [Zope] Strange pdf problem
by Etienne Labuschagne 21 May '02

I've currently got the same problem. I've got Zope 2.4.1 running on a Win2K server box. The machine I am testing from has Windows 2000 Professional running using IE 6.0 as browser. Some PDFs work others don't. On my machine with only Adobe Acrobat Reader, I get the blank screen. On one of my colleagues with the full Adobe installation, we don't get the problem. Only a switch between me and the server. Unfortunately I have no idea at the moment on how to solve the problem!

This seems to imply that it's a problem with the acroread plugin, and not with the OS or the Browser. The windows machine was on the same subnet (I think a switch was inbetween, but might be a bridge), the linux client had some routers inbetween, but no load balancing. The server is an debian woody on linux 2.4.17, Apache 1.3.23-1 using mod-rewrite using proxy rules [P] to hide zope 2.4.2-0.2, all the precompiled debian packages. We currently "solved" the problem by putting the file into a directory where it is served directly by apache, and this seems to work.

Acquiring Objects in ZPT
by David Kyte 21 May '02

21 May '02

Hi, I have an application that displays pages from a folder. The List is defined by looping over the objects. If I create a link of the type folder/ObjectID, each time I select the link I end up with a url like Letters/Letters/Letters/.../Letter1 Is there an equivalent of <dtml-with Letters> <dtml-var Letter1> </dtml-with> in ZPT. TIA Dave

ZC, like everyone else, has a certain amount of resources, and they need to bring money in to make sure everyone gets to eat. I can't imagine the ZC guys being happy that ZPT is in a known-to-need- speedups state. If it's a drama, "send code".

>>> Chris Withers wrote > Dunno, I've just never conceptually got on with FastCGI, how ever small the > CGI stub is, you're still reading a file from disk and executing it for every > single request... Huh? What you talking bout, Willis? Apache has fcgi builtin. ZServer has fcgi built in. So there's nothing to exec. A request comes in, Apache makes a TCP connection to the ZServer FCGI port (well, to the loadbalancer of the fcgi ports, in our case), and does the request. Same thing that happens for proxy pass, only different port and protocol (http instead of fastcgi). The only difference is that with FCGI, the request _appears_ to be happening as though it had hit the ZServer directly, rather than via a proxy.

Going back two years here, I can't recall the details, but I do remember it sometimes "just didn't work" with the rewrite rules and basic auth and sometimes even cookies).

No, I said "robust". I also said "for us", yes. > Did you do a speed comparison?

No. I can't see that either FCGI or ProxyPass are going to be the bottleneck in any publishing situation. I have more than enough to do without benchmarking every single bit of the system :P Anthony -- Anthony Baxter <anthony(a)interlink.com.au> It's never too late to have a happy childhood.

Old ZPhotoAlbum ZClass hoses ZSQL methods
by Tim Wilson 21 May '02

21 May '02

Hi everyone, Clicking on the "Advanced" tab of a ZSQL method produces a traceback. It appears to be triggered by an old installation of the pre-Ron Bickers version of Photo. (That one used ZClasses, IIRC.) Any hints about how to fix this? Here's the traceback: Error Type: SystemError Error Value: Failed to import class _ZClass_for_ZPhotoAlbum from module Products.Photo Traceback (innermost last): File /home/wilson/zope/2.5.1b1/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 150, in publish_module File /home/wilson/zope/2.5.1b1/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 114, in publish File /home/wilson/zope/2.5.1b1/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 159, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: qry_citylist) File /home/wilson/zope/2.5.1b1/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 98, in publish File /home/wilson/zope/2.5.1b1/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 88, in mapply (Object: manage_advancedForm) File /home/wilson/zope/2.5.1b1/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 39, in call_object (Object: manage_advancedForm) File /home/wilson/zope/2.5.1b1/lib/python/Shared/DC/Scripts/Bindings.py, line 252, in __call__ (Object: manage_advancedForm) File /home/wilson/zope/2.5.1b1/lib/python/Shared/DC/Scripts/Bindings.py, line 283, in _bindAndExec (Object: manage_advancedForm) File /home/wilson/zope/2.5.1b1/lib/python/App/special_dtml.py, line 172, in _exec (Object: manage_advancedForm) File /home/wilson/zope/2.5.1b1/lib/python/Shared/DC/ZRDB/DA.py, line 476, in manage_product_zclass_info (Object: qry_citylist) File /home/wilson/zope/2.5.1b1/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py, line 472, in setstate SystemError: (see above) --> -Tim -- Tim Wilson | Visit Sibley online: | Check out: Henry Sibley HS | http://www.isd197.org | http://www.zope.com W.

Re: [Zope] Python 2.1.3 on Debian
