Getting list length for single element in "dtml-in" loop
by cgreen 15 Jan '02

15 Jan '02

Wow -- this list has been so immensely helpful, it at once demonstrates how wonderful the open source community is.... and what an idiot *I* am. I have a dtml script which receives a form variable "field_topic", which is a list of the topic property or properties of the document or documents within a folder, and performs actions based upon the values in this list. The code is thus: <dtml-with REQUEST> <dtml-in field_topic> <dtml-let topik=sequence-item> <table border="1"> <dtml-in expr="PARENTS[0].objectValues(['STX_Document'])" sort="topic,title"> <dtml-if "topic == topik"> ........ If there are two or more elements in "fileld_topic", all is well. However, if "field_topic" contains only one element, I get the following error message: Zope Error Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource. *Error Type: InError* *Error Value: Strings are not allowed as input to the in tag* ??? So my list is interpreted as a string if it is only one element in length. What is the simplest way to deal with the possibility of a one element (or *zero* element) list being returned?? I tried <dtml-if expr="len(field_topic) < 2"> DO <dtml-elif expr="len(field_topic) >= 2"> DO OTHER </dtml-if>. It didn't work. The <dtml-in> loop still gets called, even though the if loop should never reach it. Unless I've designed the loop incorrectly. I call upon those of you who actually understand the inner intracacies of Zope for your help. And I thank you in advance. peace* *

memory leak in a very simple product. Way?
by Christoph Wierling 15 Jan '02

15 Jan '02

Hi, I've writte a very simple product which creates 100 simple objects (testProd class instances) and each of these objects has a list-attribute which contains 200 other objects (item class instances). (Please find the code at the end of this mail.) By starting the addTestProd-function I create 20000 references to item objects, as the Zope-debug option as well as the leakFinder-product tell me. But I'll never get rid of these references and earlier or later I'll run out of memory. Could anybody explain me, way this simple product is leaking like a sieve? And how I can get rid of the references? thanks for your help in advance, Christoph here is the code: __init__.py: import testProd2 def initialize(context): """ initialize this product """ context.registerClass( testProd2.testProd, permission = 'Add testProd', constructors=(testProd2.addTestProd,)) testProd2.py: import OFS.SimpleItem as SimpleItem from OFS.SimpleItem import Item def addTestProd(self): """ add TestProd """ for c in range(100): name = 'test' + str(c) self._setObject(name, testProd(name)) class testProd(SimpleItem.SimpleItem): """ testProd docu """ meta_type = 'testProd' def __init__(self, id, title = ''): self.id = id self.title = title self._tree = [] for i in xrange(200): n = item(str(i),i) tree = self._tree tree.append(n) self._tree = tree class item(Item): """ item """ def __init__(self, id, value): self.id = id self.value = value

vcXMLRPC, anyone?
by Keith J. Farmer 15 Jan '02

15 Jan '02

http://www.vcdn.org/Public/XMLRPC/ This is a javascript library that performs client-side XML-RPC calls (as in, the browser does them). I'm interested in playing with this and wonder if anybody's had any success with it under Zope? ---------- Keith J. Farmer kfarmer(a)thuban.org http://www.thuban.org

Trivial problem with sending form variables to an update Zsql met hod..
by Peter Borocz 15 Jan '02

15 Jan '02

Group, I've got a vexingly simple problem that'll probably push up another level to zope enlightenment. In particular, how to get the variables from a regular HTML form passed through to a zsql method containing an update statement> So, a (paraphrased) simple dtml-document page like this: <dtml-in zsqlQueryARecord> <form action="zsql_UpdateRecord"> <input name="keyField" type="hidden" value="<dtml-var keyField>"> <textarea name="contentsField"> <dtml-var contentsField> </textarea> <input type="submit"> </form> <dtml-in> My zsql_UpdateRecord method looks like: parms: keyField contentsField statement: update mytable set contentsField=<dtml-sqlvar contentsField type=string> where keyField=<dtml-sqlvar keyField type=string> --> When I replace the form action with a simple dtml page the displays REQUEST, the entries for these two variables ARE there in the request namespace with (potentially edited) values from the html form. --> When I execute/test the update method manually and enter sample data, it updates fine.. --> Everythings local to take care of any acquisition problems. --> HOWEVER, when zsql_UpdateRecord is invoked from the dtml-page, the zsql method pops up the default page asking me for the value of keyField and contentsField!!! [When I enter them, they flow through fine, not very user friendly though..] Searching through lists and docs indicates that updates within the zsql are no problem, however, I haven't seen an example showing the values coming off a form. What am I missing to get the zsql update statement to see these form variables?? Thanks in advance..

How do I set up Virtual Hosting with IIS 5?????
by Vion, Nicolas 15 Jan '02

15 Jan '02

Please forgive me if this question has been answered previously, but I have spent a lot of time with searches and all the information I have found always relates to Apache and NOT IIS5. All drafts of the ZAG say "to be added later" when they reach this point. Could anybody please help me by letting me know exactly what I need to do within zope, or provide me with a link where it is explained. I did what is described on http://twsite.bizland.com/twzop0015.htm , but I do not know what to do after that i.e. on the server (or is there a specific url I should use to call the pages so that they show the domain I want, especially without the port information?).

Imitating SiteRoot in an accessrule
by Ivo van der Wijk 15 Jan '02

15 Jan '02

Hi All, Is it possible to imitate the behaviour of a SiteRoot object in an access_rule? The basic idea is like this: Alot of virtual hosts point to our Zope server, and an access_rule in the / of the Zope server dispatches request to the appropriate subfolder. This works perfectly, except that base href in generated documents is wrong, it includes the entire path, while I would like it to skip the part up to the actual root of the site. This can be solved by installing a default SiteRoot in the subfolders, but I would rather not depend on all these SiteRoots (which people will modify, delete, etc, also the make managing these folders difficult) Is it possible to adjust the SiteRoot/SiteBASE/?? directly in my accessrule? With regards, Ivo -- Drs.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe an access rule is even necessary with Enhanced VirtualHostMonster (http://www.zope.org/Members/sfm/SiteAccessEnhanced) You just drop it in, set your domain/subfolder mappings, and you're good to go. > On Tue, Jan 15, 2002 at 04:35:54PM +0100, Ivo van der Wijk wrote: > > Is it possible to imitate the behaviour of a SiteRoot object in an > > access_rule? > > > > The basic idea is like this: Alot of virtual hosts point to > our Zope server, > > and an access_rule in the / of the Zope server dispatches > request to the > > appropriate subfolder. > > > > This works perfectly, except that base href in generated > documents is wrong, > > it includes the entire path, while I would like it to skip > the part up to > > the actual root of the site. > > > > This can be solved by installing a default SiteRoot in the > subfolders, but > > I would rather not depend on all these SiteRoots (which > people will modify, > > delete, etc, also the make managing these folders difficult) > > > > Is it possible to adjust the SiteRoot/SiteBASE/?? directly > in my accessrule? > > I have built virtual domains with only an access_rule and a > VirtualHostMonster.

Re[2]: [Zope] problems with NT services
by Farrell, Troy 15 Jan '02

You might be helped by looking at: http://twsite.bizland.com/ Under the tech tips section, you'll see "Zope on Windows NT". Under that section, "Converting Manually Run Zope to a Service ". Note also the parameters they discuss: -w -m, etc. You'll see these explained in c:\program files\zopesite(whatever)\z2.py The site policy requests that we don't provide direct links :( Troy ********** Andy's 2c: >> Error 2140: Internal Windows NT error has occurred. Thats got to be the most unhelpful comment. I can get Zope running on a Windoze box in 1 minute so there. > As You see, it's not Zope problem! (Joke). Why You should run it on this > Troublemaker 4.0? Try switch to something better: UNIX or Linux as well. You > will be able run Your Zope server within 5 minutes. Things to check: it starts by running start.bat. Try using using ZService.py in debug eg: python ZService.py start debug. Its usually because your Zope or Python has moved or changed. Check these, sometimes deinstalling the service and then reinstalling it is the only way. Again ZService.py can do that for you. -- Andy McKay ********** End Andy's 2c
