Python And Zope Job Market
by lozinski＠jobmart.com 02 Feb '02

02 Feb '02

I just completed the software for the python and zope job market (in Zope of course!) and will be exhibiting at the Python10 conference next week. If you would like lots of people at the conference to see your resume, I invite you to register in the database, in time for the trade show. Your registering in the database would be a great help, because you would be Beta Testing the software, and I would have some Zope resumes to show at the Python Trade show. You can see how resumes are displayed at www.jobmart.com/PythonAndZope/Resumes You can register your resume at: www.jobmart.com/PythonAndZope/Register Already 20 people registered using an earlier incarnation of the software. So it is reasonably mature with great error testing. The only part that causes the software problems are the different browsers! So, on the registration page, I created a little test script to make sure it works on your browser! You can run that before entering your real data. I invite you to register, and please send me an email saying how it went, and which browser you used. Regards Chris 1-510-795-6086 lozinski(a)openstepnews.com lozinski(a)jobmart.com

Re : Zope on solaris for the beginner.

Hello Jesse, Maybe this is your first problem on Solaris...... But it won't be the last : 3 months ago, like U, i choose Zope for building few Intranet/Extranet sites on Solaris.... .... but Python's multithreading implementation doesn't work on Solaris. Zope seems to work in a mono-threading mode on Solaris : the problem is still present on Python 2.1.2, maybe it's solved on Python 2.2 (but i'm not sure). But Zope doesn't work with Python 2.2.... .... so we had to install our sites on NT Servers in order to work with Zope (we don't have others Unix systems for production sites in our compagny)...... :-( Zope on Solaris is still a bad choise and i wonder why doesn't it mentionned on Zope.org, i wonder..... ????????

dtml-var zope_quick_start
by Terence Ng 02 Feb '02

02 Feb '02

Hi! After I installed Zope, and looked in index_html, it shows: <dtml-var standard_html_header><dtml-var zope_quick_start> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> I can find standard_html_header and standard_html_footer, but not zope_quick_start. And I cannot find it in other folders. How can it directs the URL to /QuickStart. How can I use this method to direct the URL to /abc for example? So, people can reach my site by typing "http://mysite.com/" rather than "http://mysite.com/abc". Best regards, Terence Ng _________________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Image's modified-date changes just by viewing?
by Arian de Wit 02 Feb '02

02 Feb '02

Hi All, Either I am going completely insane or this is fairly obscure and I'm just going blind... I have some images in a folder, for which I use a "view" DTML method to display them inside a framework, calling them thusly: /folder/blah.gif/view The view method uses dtml-in to produce a list of links to other images in the same folder: <dtml-in expr="objectValues(['Image'])" sort="bobobase_modification_time()"> When I view an image using this method, the "Last Modified" date/time of that image is updated as a side-effect (or what I think is a side- effect). Can someone set me straight on this please? I must be doing something screwy, right?

ZSyncer patches for reverse sync?
by Terry Hancock 02 Feb '02

02 Feb '02

I've recently tried out ZSyncer, which seems to be pretty neat. It is missing one feature which would seem to be pretty nice, and I'm told there's a patch to do it, but not where I can find it. :) It'd be nice for some purposes to be able to pull objects from the "production" server to the "development" server (instead of the other way around) in Zsyncer. The author, Andy McKay, says there is a patch for this "somewhere", but I have done a number of searches at the Sourceforge site, on Google, and via Zope.org, ZopeZen etc, and can't find it -- so if someone knows where this is, it would be really nice to know. Thanks!

PUT_factory solution
by Adam Warner 02 Feb '02

02 Feb '02

Hi all, Thanks for the PUT_factory tip last night. I see this is a common issue with proposed solutions: http://www.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Proposals/ObjectTypeAssociationAndDeathTo… My initial solution is based upon a 12 October 2001 post by Andreas Wandel. My objective was to turn all text/* content into the content type file (NOT DTML content). And allow for DTML content to be uploaded using a .dtml suffix. You just create an external method named externalmethodname.py in the Extensions folder: def PUT_factory(self,name,typ,body): from OFS.Image import Image,File from OFS.DTMLDocument import DTMLDocument if typ[:6]=='image/': ob=Image(name,'',body,content_type=typ) elif name[-5:]=='.dtml': ob=DTMLDocument('',__name__=name) else: ob=File(name,'',body,content_type=typ) return ob import webdav.NullResource webdav.NullResource.NullResource._default_PUT_factory = PUT_factory And create a link to that External Method using the Zope management interface: ID externalmethodname Title Module Name externalmethodname Function Name PUT_factory I think I will also modify the external method so that anything I upload called 'index_html' is turned into dtml content by default. Thanks everyone. I misunderstood Chris' initial post as implying that this was only a cosmetic error message issue. A descriptive error message would have reduced the number of frustrating hours trying to work out what was wrong. Instead of the error message being "426 Error creating file" perhaps it could be: Zope tried to create a [insert DTML Document/DTML method/etc.] object. However your content could not be correctly parsed. Please investigate writing your own custom PUT_factory external method. By the way, if Zope was really smart it could automatically turn any text content that turns out to be illegal DTML into a text file type instead of rejecting the file. Regards, Adam

Yes, definitely. I do the same thing as you mentioned, only I do it for lawyers, not engineers. Your job will probably be easier (then again, it might not if the engineers want to tweak everything themselves). Ron > I have to integrate several smaller internal websites > into a larger intranet.
