Python Script woes
by Wade Pearce 15 Jan '02

15 Jan '02

G'day, I'm trying to develope some Python scripts to help me out with a website. Actually, I'm trying to do it on two sites, but if I get it sorted out on the harder one, the other should be a cinch. Anyway, on this site I have a number of form fields that I want to insert into a Postgres table. Now, unfortunately, because I'm adding to existing functionality I can't use the form's standard GET or POST functions to produce some form items for my Z SQL Method. I have used a self.location=URL for an onClick property on a SAVE ORDER button to post the values to another page. The only problem with this method is that redirecting the user back to the main page requires them to sit through the load process again (the page, pull-down lists, etc. are all pre-loaded). So, I want to make the onClick property of the SAVE ORDER button call an external Python script that will insert the data. The problem I'm facing is how to do this and how to write the python script. Basically, the values for the parameters will be: cust_id (obtained from <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('cust_id', AUTHENTICATED_USER.getUserName())">) order_body (obtained from document.customer_form.Order.value) email_address (obtained from document.customer_form.email_address.value) cust_order_no (obtained from document.customer_form.order_number.value) How would I call the python script? A python script I wrote contained one line: data=context.db_customer.method_test("insert into saved_orders values ('" + cust_id + "','" + order_body + "','" + email_address + "','" + cust_order_no + "')") db_customer is the Pygresql DB connector. This inserts the data, but hangs while testing. I was unsuccessful in my attempts to call it from the onClick property. I'm am positive I've missed something, and my hours of searching on the web have netted no working results. So, what I am trying to find out is one of the following: 1) Can you do a straight insert via Python. If so, whats the proper syntax 2) Would it be better to call the original Z SQL Method from Python? Is this possible? 3) Am I looking at this from the wrong direction? Any help greatly appreciated.

Ran out of Zen: Multiple inheritance and __init__ problems
by Lennart Regebro 15 Jan '02

15 Jan '02

Sometimes when I inherit from multiple classes, I can do thusly: class C( A, B): def __init__(self, foo): A.__init__(self, foo) B.__init__(self) But sometimes this doesn't work, but python complains and sais that unbound methods must be called with class instance 1st argument, although that is exactly what I do. Sometimes I can do this to solve that problem: def __init__(self, foo): A.__init__(self, foo) C.inheritedAttribute(__init__)(self) And sometimes not even that works. And yes, I do restart the server without anything changing. Could somebody please try to make some kind of explanation of what is going on and why? I don't understand this problem at all. Is there some known caveats with these methods?

Searching date ranges on catalogs.
by Josef Meile 15 Jan '02

15 Jan '02

I just wondering if you can do it with ZCatalogs. I have a product wich I called reserve and it has two fields: startDate and endDate (both field Indexes). The entry of my python script is a date (let's say currentDate). I just need to do search the objects wich satisfy the following condition: startDate<=currentDate<=endDate. Thanks in advanced, Josef.

zope services...
by Cully, Christopher [OCDGB] 15 Jan '02

15 Jan '02

I've been running Zope for quite a while now, for a site that I 'inherited' when a guy from work left last year. The HTTP port was always 9080, and I never experienced any problems. I recently ran into problems with the site (see "[ZOPE] problems with NT services" which appears to have been posted by Andy McKay on my behalf) on advice from a couple of people, I've tried re-installing Zope in a different folder and copying the "Data.fs" file into the installation. however, since I have another Zope Service running on the default (8080) port, I cant access the problem site, and cant turn off the working site for other reasons. basically, the question is 'how do I change the HTTP port on the server, so that I can run two Zope Services (at the moment, I have a path of "http://[servername]:8080" for both installations]? also, if the reinstallation and copying of Data.fs doesn't work (or if someone out there knows a better way of fixing' the problem) is there anything else I can do to get rid of the 'Error 2140: an internal windows NT error has occurred' message that I get when I try to start the old service on port 9080? any assistance would be greatly appreciated regards Chris Cully

Product unable to be called
by Zachery Bir 15 Jan '02

15 Jan '02

A coworker and I developed a product for our customers handling minimal content management, and the mangement side works pretty flawlessly. We can add new content items, edit them, etc. But now, when we go to publish them, I'm getting errors about __call__ not being found. We used the Boring Product tutorial as our guide, and it never mentions making a __call__ method in the Product's Class definition, so we never did. I see that many other Objects use __call__, but I'm not sure where to proceed with ours. Any pointers? Zachery Bir <zbir(a)urbanape.com> <URL:http://www.urbanape.com/>

Is there a method that returns all users having a given set of roles? I know how to get all users and how to ask them for their roles. But not how to do it the other way round. Thanks for your time Robert

mc-ftp crashes zope
by Maik Jablonski 15 Jan '02

15 Jan '02

hello, when i connect with the gnu-midnight-commander (mc) to my zope-ftp-port (8021), zope crashes if i submit a wrong login. this happens on linux (zope 2.4.3, mc 4.5.51) and freebsd (zope 2.4.1, mc 4.5.54), so i think it must be a problem of zope... ftping with a normal client works well... what's wrong with zope and midnight-commander? thanx4hlp maik.

Jim Penny jpenny(a)universal-fasteners.com on Thu, 10 Jan 2002 16:51:37 -0500 I use an external method to do my upload, this is the salient part def upload(self, REQUEST): ... code deleted ... The largest file I currently have here is 104,486,083 bytes. This is quite a bit bigger than my server's RAM!

Here's the traceback I get (after a minute or so of churning away at the process) ---------- Error: [Errno 28] No space left on device and Traceback (innermost last): File /home/zoper/Zope-2.4.1-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 136, in publish File /home/zoper/Zope-2.4.1-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/HTTPRequest.py, line 409, in processInputs File /home/zoper/Zope-2.4.1-linux2-x86/lib/python2.1/cgi.py, line 517, in __init__ File /home/zoper/Zope-2.4.1-linux2-x86/lib/python/ZPublisher/cgi_hotfix.py, line 20, in read_multi File /home/zoper/Zope-2.4.1-linux2-x86/lib/python2.1/cgi.py, line 519, in __init__ File /home/zoper/Zope-2.4.1-linux2-x86/lib/python2.1/cgi.py, line 616, in read_single File /home/zoper/Zope-2.4.1-linux2-x86/lib/python2.1/cgi.py, line 638, in read_lines File /home/zoper/Zope-2.4.1-linux2-x86/lib/python2.1/cgi.py, line 677, in read_lines_to_outerboundary IOError: [Errno 28] No space left on device --------- I'm particularly puzzled by the "No space left on device" part... I have several GB of free disk space, so that's not the issue. Just for fun, I tried this on another machine with 512Meg RAM both with Zope 2.4.3 and the latest 2.5 beta... same results... if this due to a bug in either cgi.py or somewhere else in the Zserver code? I guess my solution for handling these extra-jumbo files will be to run a sep. FTP server to allow uploading of the files. I seem to be having more trouble with this than most other users, so I'm wondering if there's still something silly I'm missing about the situation. If the above traceback rings any bells for anyone, I'd love to compare notes. Larry
