customizing existing management interfaces
by Benjamin Buffereau 21 Jan '02

21 Jan '02

Sorry for this question has probably been answered before somewhere... Is there an easy way to customise an existing management interface? I'm writing a product with a class deriving from "Folder", and I would like to change very few things in the "manage_main" interface (like displaying the folder title for example). Do I really need to copy/paste folder's "main.dmtl" and edit it?? Regards, Benjamin.

PDF's behave different with MS 5.0 Browsers
by Tanalahy 21 Jan '02

21 Jan '02

Hi! As a beginner in Zope I created an intranet solution for 1800 employees in a big factory. People should be able to publish documents, but there occurs a problem with PDF files. PDF's imported by the manager's add-file-dialog can be seen by users with MS Internet Explorer 5.0 and Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.0 - 4.0. But I wrote another more special upload dialog, which uses the add-file method too. But by this way, PDF's cannot be displayed by the above constellation, even all the properties look the same. The file type is "application/pdf", but MS 5.0 browsers complain, that no appropriate viewer can be found. Only upgrading to IE 5.5 with Acrobat 5.0 makes no difference. Does anyone have some idea what makes the difference or can provide a solution. We soon should publish the intranet solution, but we cannot upgrade all the workstations. So we are in unexpected trouble. Need help soon. Thank very much Jürgen Mail: treutler(a)vaovaoweb.de ******************************************* Listing: """ Create a file entry.

Thank you for the hint! I could solve some of my problems by following this article of the MS Knowledgebase: Error Message "Error Locating Object Handler" When Downloading a .pdf File (Q262213) But still I don't understand that ZOPE sometimes behaves in two differnt ways.

Re: Re: [Zope] Product->refresh broken in zope-2.4.3?

Hello Thomas > I use 2.4.3 and refresh my python products several times a day. It > works fine, even with dependencies between products. Do you get a > stacktrace? Yes. It says: Traceback (innermost last): File /var/lib/zope-2.4.3/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 223, in publish_module File /var/lib/zope-2.4.3/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 187, in publish File /var/lib/zope-2.4.3/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 226, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: test) File /var/lib/zope-2.4.3/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 171, in publish File /var/lib/zope-2.4.3/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: addGMSBericht) File /var/lib/zope-2.4.3/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 112, in call_object (Object: addGMSBericht) File /var/lib/zope-2.4.3/lib/python/Products/GMSBericht/GMSBericht.py, line 169, in addGMSBericht (Object: test) TypeError: (see above) Line 169 of GMSBericht.py (addGMSBericht) says: handle=GMSBericht() This makes absolutely no sense to me, because I wrote this code about three months ago, and it always worked with refresh. I tried a separate installation with zope-2.4.1, copied my products and "Data.fs", and everything works fine.

CMF 1.2 and portal_catalog
by Stephan Goeldi 21 Jan '02

21 Jan '02

I read in the HISTORY.txt file about CMF-1.2 (http://cmf.zope.org/CMF/download/CMF-1.2/HISTORY.txt) under 'Bug fixes': "Made all content types findable by catalog (Tracker #286). " But in Tracker #286 there is only spoken about two Portal Types. So is now really 'all' content type findable? e.g. if I use some Metapublisher stuff or something else inside of CMF 1.2, is it then automatically findable with the portal catalog? Now, it even doesn't show up when I manually update the catalog. What do I have to do, to make such a content type 'findable' if it isn't? TIA Stephan _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com

Metapublisher CMF Addon
by Stephan Goeldi 21 Jan '02

21 Jan '02

Did anybody manage to work with the Metapublisher CMF Addon? If yes: - what version of Zope? - what version of CMF? I tried it on Zope 2.4.3 and 2.3.3 with CMF 1.2 and 1.1. I always receive error messages. The product shows up in the control panel correct. The error message on Zope 2.3.3 and CMF 1.1 is:  _________________________________________________________________ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com

Re: [Zope] apache + vhm & http-rfc compliance

Thanks for the info and clarification. I'm exploring a bit on this myself, now. I want to look at rule construction some more though, even though I now understand why what I listed was a bad choice. It's getting kind of hacked up with all of the replies, so here's your original, as copied from http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope/2002-January/107176.html : > I use an extra condition to avoid that problem and do another rewrite > if hostname has the port appended: RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^.*:80$ RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://localhost:25080/zopefolder/VirtualHostBase/http/%{HTTP_HOST}/VirtualH ostRoot/$1 [P] http://localhost:25080/zopefolder/VirtualHostBase/http/%{HTTP_HOST}/VirtualH ostRoot/$1 [P] Is that last line doubled by accident? Or is it supposed to look a little different? Assuming that the last line should be deleted or changed, then that makes sense. I've been experimenting today with the following slight modification, with some success, though, and it seems like a more generic solution to me. Here it is based on what you were using (mine actually looks different, because I am using my own product, but here it is with you code): RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^.*:\d*$ RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://localhost:25080/zopefolder/VirtualHostBase/http/%{HTTP_HOST}/VirtualH ostRoot/$1 [P] RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://localhost:25080/zopefolder/VirtualHostBase/http/%{HTTP_HOST}:%{SERVER _PORT}/VirtualHostRoot/$1 [P] That's assuming SERVER_PORT is reliable, which it has been in my tests today. This performed satisfactorily today for me with IE, Moz, and WebDAV, using multiple http ports (ok, well, two, one normal and one webdav source). BTW, of my initial attempt, you end with this: > This might be desired in some cases (locking out wget&friends) > , but will end in a disaster if a popular browser begins to send the "Host:" > header this way. I'm not sure, but the latest nightly Mozilla build may be doing this exact thing. I got some results that seemed to suggest that. Interesting. Thanks for bringing this up. Gary

question about the attribute of results from a ZSQL method?
by Terry 21 Jan '02

21 Jan '02

Dear list, Iam struggle with a question(probably very easy for you), anyone caould help me ? I would like inster the items relative to my news article, and keep almost same distance in the same article. Here is my Pyton Script # To make the photo, pull, or box def make_up(item): if (item.ph_id > 0 ): return 'PHOTO<br>' elif (item.pl_id > 0 ): return 'PULL<br>' elif (item.bx_id > 0 ): return 'BOX<br>' ## sql_Photo .. prefix sql mean my ZSQL method photo=script.sql_Photos(ar_id=ar_id) pull=script.sql_Pulls(ar_id=ar_id) box=script.sql_Boxes(ar_id=ar_id) temp_glue = [] if (len(photo) > 0 and len(photo) >= len(pull) and len(photo) >= len(box) ): for i in range(len(photo)): temp_glue.append(photo[i]) if len(pull) >= i+1: temp_glue.append(pull[i]) if len(box) >= i+1: temp_glue.append(box[i]) elif (len(pull) > 0 and len(pull) >= len(photo) and len(pull) >= len(box)): for i in range(len(pull)): temp_glue.append(pull[i]) if len(photo) >= i+1: temp_glue.append(photo[i]) if len(box) >= i+1: temp_glue.append(box[i]) elif (len(box) > 0 and len(box) >= len(photo) and len(box) >= len(pull)): for i in range(len(box)): temp_glue.append(box[i]) if len(photo) >= i+1: temp_glue.append(photo[i]) if len(pull) >= i+1: temp_glue.append(pull[i]) Then I will glue the "temp_glue" with my article. Here is my question? The "def make_up()" dose work. I have attribute ph_id in photo, pl_id in pull, bx_id in box But how to identify which one I'm processing ? Thanks in Advance Terry

I've noticed a similar problem with Ikonboard, which runs as a cgi process behind Apache+IIS on my server. Perhaps it's a related problem? ---------- Keith J.
