Tomcat vs Zope
by fsd fds 18 Jan '02

18 Jan '02

ok ok, I know, I don't want to start a holy war here. I've been using Zope for a while, and I love python, but I see many people moving towards java/jsp/tomcat. I've studied java, but never liked too much, and so I tried to avoid it. But with all this "momentum" behind it, I think I might give it a try. Of course, being this a zope list, I know i'll get more positive opinions about the zope platform, but I'd like to hear from people who have tried both zope and tomcat: * what are the strenghts and weakness of both platforms? * is it possible to have something like the Zope Management Interface for Tomcat? * is tomcat web development object oriented as the zope one (I just love having objects that talk to each other and produce the pages. Makes design much easier and powerful) well, thanks in advance to the great zope community! Joe

Squishdot problem with suggest_author
by Kyroraz 18 Jan '02

18 Jan '02

Hmm, I can't seem to get my squishdot site to allow postings. Everytime a non-logged in user tries to post a suggestion for a topic or a reply to a existing post, I get: Zope Error Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource. Error Type: Unauthorized Error Value: You are not allowed to access suggest_author in this context The odd thing is if I press BACK on my browser, and then FORWARD, I get in. Any ideas? The site is http://www.battledroid.org Jason

Re: [Zope] CMF Intro?
by Stephan Goeldi 18 Jan '02

>I think If you want to know what CMF is for you really have to install it >and create a demosite. What would be very good for CMF is something like the standard Tutorial in Zope (Elvis lives!). Although it has worst usability (adding the product and importing the examples ... very ugly if you are a newbie!) it was the point when it made click in my head and I realized that Zope is the solution for my needs. Something like this tutorial in CMF. But with better usability. The Zope demos on www.zope.com are way too fast. I have to listen and look very concentrated, and I am no newbie. You can absolutely forget, that any Non-Zopist understands what's really going on. Of course, my approach of a simple CMF demo with a Java tool on www.goeldi.com/e/demo is way to slow and big (1024 screen size). But it is much better to follow and to understand.

However 2.50 Beta 3 worked fine on that same machine) Anybody have a fix? Barry

In fact, your idea about using .seek(0) worked like a charm as well. So, my code now looks like... else: file = request.form[photo].seek(0) manage_addExtImage(file=file, ...) Thank you *so* much, you've saved my bacon :-))) tim
