storing binary data in an external database
by Bryan C. Andregg 07 Mar '02

07 Mar '02

I need to be able to store images and the like in a postgres table. It would seem that <dtml-sqlvar> isn't going to be what I want because there isn't a type definition for what I want (the data isn't exactly a string, right?). I'm reading in the file contents using REQUEST['file'].read(), which works great for ascii text files, but not binaries. Any help appreciated. -- Bryan C.

Sql Blender errors
by Richard Hewison 07 Mar '02

Sql Blender used to work okay with Zope 2.4.3 under SuSE Linux 7.3 Professional, but now when we try and 'build' we get the following error in the ZMI: Unexpected tag, for tag <dtml-comma>, on line 2 of <string> Traceback (innermost last): File /opt/Zope-2.4.3/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 223, in publish_module File /opt/Zope-2.4.3/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 187, in publish File /opt/Zope-2.4.3/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 226, in zpublisher_exception_hook File /opt/Zope-2.4.3/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 171, in publish File /opt/Zope-2.4.3/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: manage_build) File /opt/Zope-2.4.3/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 112, in call_object (Object: manage_build) File /opt/Zope-2.4.3/lib/python/Products/SQLBlender/SQLBlender.py, line 194, in manage_build File /opt/Zope-2.4.3/lib/python/Products/ZSQLMethods/SQL.py, line 140, in manage_addZSQLMethod (Object: employees_sql) File /opt/Zope-2.4.3/lib/python/Shared/DC/ZRDB/DA.py, line 179, in __init__ (Object: INSERT) File /opt/Zope-2.4.3/lib/python/Shared/DC/ZRDB/DA.py, line 246, in manage_edit (Object: INSERT) File /opt/Zope-2.4.3/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_String.py, line 413, in cook (Object: <string>) File /opt/Zope-2.4.3/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_String.py, line 243, in parse (Object: <string>) File /opt/Zope-2.4.3/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_String.py, line 285, in parse_block (Object: <string>) File /opt/Zope-2.4.3/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_String.py, line 131, in parse_error (Object: <string>) Document Template Parse Error: (see above) We did recently install a binary version of MySQL for Linux v3.23.49-a without removing in any way the previous rpm of MySQL forLinux v3.23.47-1 (mainly because we don't have any idea how to uninstall!).

ZSQL and DTML question
by Mitch Pirtle 07 Mar '02

07 Mar '02

Hi everyone, I cannot figure out how to do something the Zope way(TM). Basically, PHP lets you call a query and act on it conditionally, e.g. "if the query returns data do A, if not then do B". How is this done best within Zope? For example, I got really used to returning a recordset (query) as an HTML table. But only IF the recordset returned more than 0 rows. If the query had an empty result, then I would instead print "<p>No records found.</p>" or something like that. I know there's a better and easier way in Zope, I just don't know how -;^>= Can someone kindly point me in the right direction? -- Mitch Pirtle Corporate Security Officer Kühne & Nagel Management AG Tel: +41 1 786 96 45 Fax: +41 1 786 95 95

Hey Luis, If I remember, I think I searched the list archives and someone said something about a tag that was not being passed from Word to Zope.Supposely there was a fix in the CVS repository.

etcUserFolder login fails

Hi, we use the etcUserFolder. The etcUsers is a copy of the /etc/shadow readable by the UID Zope runs under. All of our user can login and are happy, except one of them. His entry in the etcUsers looks equal to the other user entries <username>:<crypted password>::::::: Zope brings me this error message: --------------------- Zope Error Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource. ValueError Sorry, a Zope error occurred.

Re: [Zope] Confused about ZSyncer setup

Do you mean the >production >server's "Sync URL" can be empty? > No, I mean that any parameters set in the ZSyncer object on the production (target) URL will be ignored, as it is the parameters from the development ZSyncer driving the process. As I mentioned earlier, I am still confused about the purpose of the production ZSyncer instance. You suggested that in order to have client-server for the XMLRPC dialogue, this was necessary. I would have thought that merely by installing the product, this was sufficient. The destinations would then highlight nodes in file systems much as any other copy tool (ie cp, rsync, CVS, rcp, tar ...) What am I missing?
