pcgi, make install: root necessary?
by Florian Konnertz 04 Apr '02

04 Apr '02

I installed zope as user and continued to install pcgi. When I do make install, i get: flo@grooveway:/usr/local/dc/zope/pcgi$ make install ./install-sh -c -m 755 pcgi-wrapper /usr/local/bin/pcgi-wrapper2.0a5 cp: cannot create regular file `/usr/local/bin/#inst.929#': Permission denied chmod: getting attributes of `/usr/local/bin/#inst.929#': No such file or directory rm: cannot unlink `/usr/local/bin/pcgi-wrapper2.0a5': Permission denied mv: cannot stat `/usr/local/bin/#inst.929#': No such file or directory cp pcgi-wrapper /usr/local/bin cp: cannot create regular file `/usr/local/bin/pcgi-wrapper': Permission denied make: *** [bininstall] Error 1 Is it necessary to do this as root or is it possible to change the permissions in /usr/local/bin ? Isn't this dangerous to allow a user to write here? greetings, Florian

LocalFS and ZPT
by Blossom Merz 04 Apr '02

04 Apr '02

I'm in the beginning stages of a fairly large web devlopment project. For this one, I need to store most of the zope object in the local filesystem. LocalFS knows how to store them, but I can't get it to parse the TAL stuff. I've tried making a few changes to the module source, but I really don't know what I'm doing. Any ideas? Thanks! blossom merz (Zope newbie) --

dictionary definition and strings
by p.t. 04 Apr '02

04 Apr '02

Hi, as a newbie to Zope and this list, I have a simple question I can't manage to get an answer. If, in a python script, I have a string ="{'aKey':'aValue'}" and I want to generate a dictionary from such a string, what should I do? BTW, the function dict() does not work (at least in Zope 2.4.3) TIA for any suggestion, p.t.

STX (Wiki) to PDF?
by Brad Clements 04 Apr '02

04 Apr '02

I've been looking around the Zope Book CVS and web pages trying to find the elusive "STX to PDF" conversion tools. Anyone have any pointers? I need a way to dump a Wiki into a single PDF document. Figured I'd have to build something, but would like to find an STX to PDF converter to start with. Thanks for any hints.

Does anyone have suggestions for an approach to executing a dtml method nightly? The platform is Windows 2000, and I have access to the Task Scheduler to run python and perl scripts from the command line. Thanks!

manage_addFile won't work
by Mark Spencer 04 Apr '02

04 Apr '02

The following python code works when I upload a local file to my local Zope server, but gives a "resource not found" error when uploading any local file to a Zope Server across the internet: context.manage_addFile(id, file=new_file_object, title=title, precondition="", content_type="") (If I change "file=new_file_object" to "new_file_object" there is the same problem) Does this mean that I have to process the path/filename in a different way, or is it some kind of permissions issue ? And how can I simply overcome the problem, do I need to use an external method or some other solution? Mark Spencer.

compile bug in Zope 2.5.0
by system PRIVILEGED account 04 Apr '02

04 Apr '02

Hi, I am trying to install Zope on our ES40 machine. I encountered problems with two C source files whose names seem to have been truncated: UnicodeSpli UnicodeSplitter.c and ISO_885 ISO_8859_1_Splitter.c Both are in the lib/python/Products/PluinIndexes/TextIndex/Splitter subtree I don't yet have a working version, but at least the compilation terminated... Cheers, Herzog rherzog(a)ulb.ac.be

Get exposure for a new site
by Milos Prudek 04 Apr '02

04 Apr '02

I just created a new site with Zope. What is the best way to gain exposure for the new site? - Yahoo requires $299 annually. I can't afford that. - Excite requires at leat $0.05 per click. What are the best deals in web listings? -- Milos Prudek
