Help with Zope news?
by Chris McDonough 27 Nov '01

27 Nov '01

Would anybody be willing to "do" the Zope News for the last few months (since it was last released, on Oct. 1, long ago)? If not, it's going to be a while before I'll be able to release another one. ---------- Chris McDonough Zope Corporation http://www.zope.org http://www.zope.com """ Killing hundreds of birds with thousands of stones """

Problem with std. user folder Authentication dialog
by vio 27 Nov '01

27 Nov '01

How do I get rid of the Login dialog sent by 'user folder'? I have a product which I want to allow public access to (without compromising my site's security), but I can't get rid of the std. Login dialog. I tried to use the calls from the Security chapter in ZopeDevGuide, but without apparent effect: calls to security.declarePublic('myMethod') don't seem to work, as far as I can tell. Any hints would be appreciated. Vio

Is your index_html object a DTML Document or a DTML Method? (Hint, it should be a DTML Method). Note, the Zope interface will give you the option to create a user interface, but it does so by creating a DTML Document. The Zope Book example instead uses a DTML Method for the index_html object. Hope that helps.

ZCatalog and Mac OS X
by Jochen Haeberle 27 Nov '01

27 Nov '01

Hi, after some time of absence from active Zope, I just downloaded and successfully installed Zope 2.4.3 on Mac OS X. I am just playing around a bit to get up to date, but... I can't get a ZCatalog to index anything. From the docs I found it works like the (new) find tab. I can find objects with no problem, but nothing gets into the catalog, whatever I do. Am I so dumb or is it a problem someone else found on OS X 10.1.1??? My Setup: Root: Some DTML-Methods a Photo-Folder with some Photos, I would like to catalog a ZCatalog I think for a start I should not need to change anything to the settings of the ZCatalog. I go to the Find Objects Tab and select Photo as a type (nothing changes when I try all objects) and start the find - with no result. Sorry, but I could not find any ocumentation concerning the present version of ZCatalog to cover my problem, all the How-Tos cover older versions... Could anyone please give me a hint? Is there a place where bugs/hints for Zope on OS X can be found? Regards Jochen

Problem!!!.............Please Help
by Pravin Raj Joshi 26 Nov '01

Recently I downloaded Zope and am in the process of learning it. I am working out the Zope book. Here is what I have installed: Zope 2.4.3 (binary release, win 32) Python 2.1 (MSC 32 bit Intel) System win 32 (Win 98 Second Edition) Problem I Face: I am currently working with Chapter 5 of the Zope Book (Creating Basic Zope Applications). In it for navigation I created the DTML method navigation in the ZopeZoo folder. That called all the folders properly. I have a link for navigation (using dtml-var) in the standard-html-header. Then I created the index_html file in the ZopeZoo folder. In it I called standard-html-header. Now the links of the navigation are not shown. If I include a line like <p>This is a trial</p> in the navigation object that will be shown, but not the navigation panel. Then I created another DTML document called html_header in the ZopeZoo folder with dtml-var navigation. It works. Then when I call that in my index_html again no nagivation bar. Can anyone let me know what the problem is or if I am doing anything wrong. Thank you. Pravin

Missing producst
by Matt Goodall 26 Nov '01

26 Nov '01

Hi, Some home grown products that I imported into a clean installation of Zope v2.4.2 have gone missing from the "Add" dropdown. The products are listed in /Control_Panel/Products and instances of those products that were also imported work fine. The only problem is that I cannot create new ones :( Has anyone seen this behaviour before and does anyone know what I can do to get them back? Thanks for your help. Cheers, Matt

Transactions in Zope?
by Bruce Eckel 26 Nov '01

26 Nov '01

I am creating an external method that makes a folder, creates a dtml method in that folder, and then sends an email message. If any of these operations fail, I'd like to "roll back" to the state before the method was called. I think I heard that zope has transactions of some kind, and I'm making mods to the ZODB in my external method, so is there a magic piece of code that would roll everything back? Thanks!

skip_unauthorized not working in dtml-in
by Kevin Worth 26 Nov '01

26 Nov '01

Zope 2.4.3, Mac OS X. This code: <dtml-in expr="PARENTS[0].objectValues(['Folder', 'RSTX_Document', 'DTML Document', 'STX Document'])" skip_unauthorized=1 sort=id> <a href="&dtml-absolute_url;/"><dtml-var title_or_id></a> </dtml-in> Does not work in my setup. I know the permissions are fine, because skip_unauthorized is working as expected in a dtml-tree for the same objects. The Zope Book mentions another way of doing it -by assigning a property for those items to appear in the list and checking to see if it is true - but that doesn't work well for me because the public/private nature of many items will change often based on the time of year. thanks Kevin

Re: Error, Missing Input: Missing input variable, member_id

Kamal, When you tested it, did you put in a value for all three arguments? Hello Steve, When executed, it actually displayed a form asking me to enter the values for the variable which I did. It displayed the error after clicking on the submit query button. regards. kamal On Friday, November 23, 2001, at 01:54 PM, Hamzat kamal wrote: Hi, I intend to use Login Manager for user authentication to archive folder on my website.
