Zope.conf File and Pound
by beno 23 Aug '06

23 Aug '06

Hi; I need to implement SSL. So I nosed around /etc/zope.conf and found several containers for ports, but no "<ssl-server>" container. Why? How do I get Zope to listen, for example, on port 8443? For those who use Pound (and perhaps this is better addressed to the Pound ML), it is written one should add this: python -X -w 8080 -y 8443 to the start file, but doesn't specify which file that is. It clearly isn't zope.conf, it doesn't look like zopectl or zopectl.py, either. TIA, beno

Zope behind iis
by Siddharth Sethi 22 Aug '06

22 Aug '06

Hi, i have a simple question... should i be able to see zope when iis is running? I am asking this because i am trying to setup Enfold Proxy and it is not able to reach http://localhost:8080. What happens is that when iis is stopped my plone and zope both run fine but when i start iis, plone does not display anything as iis uses port 80 but zope stops working too. It gives me ap age can not be displayed error in my ie. So if any one can tell me how to get zope running when iis is running, it would help me get Enfold Proxy started too. Thanks in advance.

My symlinks were fine. I ripped them all out :) I emptied the Plone-2.5.0 dir and dropped it all in the main Products dir. Then I stopped Zope and used "runzope" to track errors. I got a number of them, one quoted below. Here are the packages I had to take out of the Products dir to get Zope to boot: ATContentTypes CMFPlone Marshall ATReferenceBrowserWidget CMFQuickInstallerTool MimetypesRegistry Archetypes CMFSetup PasswordResetTool CMFActionIcons CMFTopic PloneLanguageTool CMFCalendar CMFUid PlonePAS CMFCore DCWorkflow PluggableAuthService CMFDefault PortalTransforms CMFDynamicViewFTI Five ResourceRegistries CMFFormController GenericSetup CMFPlacefulWorkflow GroupUserFolder In other words, almost everything! (The other prods have showed up in the Zope.)

Limiting access
by David 22 Aug '06

22 Aug '06

Hi We are running a site for a local government providing local information. Over the past few months, the site has been spidered daily and the information appears to be used for unwanted marketing campaigns. We have been asked if we could somehow block this access. We tried blocking the originating IP on the server (using route to blackhole), but the spider is rotating IPs within a day of us putting in a block. Is there some mechanism in Zope or can be added to a Zope instance that would limit the number of requests that are served per IP address within a certain period of time? We are aware that this would also affect Google and other search engine spiders, but as they usually come from a known IP range, it would be nice if we could exempt these from the "throttling". Any ideas or suggestions? DR

Pack problem with zeo
by Jonathan 21 Aug '06

21 Aug '06

I have encountered a problem caused by packing Data.fs (pack done via ZMI - Control Panel - Database Management - main - Pack). After Data.fs is packed, the ZODBmount point for the zeo server is missing. I have the following folder set-up: Root |----Coz |---ZeoServer1 After the pack operation, folder 'ZeoServer1' is missing. In zope.conf I have: <zodb_db main> # Main FileStorage database <filestorage> path $INSTANCE/var/Data.fs </filestorage> mount-point / </zodb_db> <zodb_db zeo1> mount-point /Coz/ZeoServer1 # ZODB cache, in number of objects cache-size 5000 <zeoclient> server 192.168.123.1:8100 storage 1 name zeostorage var /apps/zeo1/var # ZEO client cache, in bytes cache-size 20MB # Uncomment to have a persistent disk cache #client zeo1 </zeoclient> </zodb_db> I am packing the main Data.fs (running on an application server - the zeo client) not the zeo Data.fs. (zeo server is running on a different machine). I am running Zope 2.9.2 on RedHat linux. Any ideas as to how to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated! Jonathan

Zope 2.9 Product Refreshing
by James Davies 21 Aug '06

21 Aug '06

Hi. I've been attempting to develop products with Zope 2.9, and am finding it increasingly difficult and slow to do so as Product refreshing no longer works. Google shows up a few results from mailing lists with somewhat negative responses (The gist I'm getting is that no-one 'in the know' wants to worry about fixing it, as they don't see a real need for it). However, as a zope restart seems to take a good 5-10 seconds on my high end workstation (AthlonX2 4800+) with all the essentiall products installed (Plone, archetypes etc, plus my application), it's starting to become a major problem. as an example, I spent about three hours today debugging a problem, 90% of which was wasted waiting for zope restarts after making small changes and adding trace print statements. If I was able to refresh the product I would likely have taken less than half an hour. Another major issue I've discovered is Zope hosting. We reguarly deploy custom sites on shared zope environments, and having to restart an entire server just to update one product severely breaks our uptime guarentee. I'm afraid we are going to have no choice but to either drop back to Zope 2.8, or ditch Zope entirely- something I'd prefer not to have to do with our large codebase. I'm hoping I can garner some support to get the zope developers to fix the problem. Failing that, ANY information pointing me in the right direction would be helpful, as I'm more than happy to fix it myself and submit a patch. If anyone else is finding this a problem, please reply in this thread. :-) Thanks in advance. James.

Hi, I guess most of you might have seen this: http://oodt.jpl.nasa.gov/better-web-app.mov Not sure that Zope3 would get the same grade though (because of xml config files).

by Andreas Jung 19 Aug '06

19 Aug '06

Hi all, on behalf of Zope developer community I am pleased to announce the release of Zope 2.10.0 beta 2. You can download Zope 2.10.0 beta 2 http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.10.0b2/ Some new features of Zope 2.10: - ZPT implementation based on Zope 3 - experimental WSGI and Twisted integration - Zope 3.3, Five 1.5 integration - clock server - lots of minor improvements and fixes - replaced several Zope 2 modules with their sister implementation of Zope 3 For more information on what is new in this release, see the CHANGES.txt files for the release: http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.10.0b2/CHANGES.txt Please bring all the bugs you have found to the Zope bugtracker: http://collector.zope.org/Zope For more information on the available Zope releases, guidance for selecting the right distribution and installation instructions, please see: http://www.plope.com/Books/2_7Edition/InstallingZope.stx As always: beta releases of major Zope revisions require *early* testing. Don't wait with testing until the 2.10.0 final release. Supported Python versions: Zope 2.10 requires Python 2.4.3 (Python 2.4.2 is still acceptable). Older Python versions are no longer supported. Using Python 2.5 is also *unsupported*. -- Andreas Jung

Content-Disposition is driving me batty
by Kirk Strauser 18 Aug '06

18 Aug '06

I have a Python script that transmits a file to the user. An excerpt: if not skipctypeheader: # Set the content type if one is defined for the file ctype = file.getProperty('content_type', d=None) if ctype: RESPONSE.setHeader('Content-Type', ctype) RESPONSE.setHeader('Content-Disposition', 'inline; filename=%s' % filename) We most commonly use this to send PDF reports. After a recent upgrade from Zope 2.8.something to 2.9.3 (on FreeBSD via "ports"), IE users can only sometimes get the file - they otherwise get a blank page. Running 'curl' gives the header values I'd expect: $ curl -vv -O 'http://web2.xrsnet.com/publicstore/download?filename=print.pdf&password=foo' > /dev/null * About to connect() to web2.xrsnet.com port 80 * Trying 10.45.14.64... connected * Connected to web2.xrsnet.com (10.45.14.64) port 80 > GET /publicstore/download?filename=print.pdf&password=foo HTTP/1.1 > User-Agent: curl/7.15.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.15.1 OpenSSL/0.9.8a zlib/1.2.3 libidn/0.5.18 > Host: web2.xrsnet.com > Accept: */* > < HTTP/1.1 200 OK < Date: Wed, 16 Aug 2006 22:26:11 GMT < Server: Zope/(Zope 2.9.3-, python 2.4.3, freebsd6) ZServer/1.1 < Content-Length: 1742 < Content-Type: application/pdf; charset=iso-8859-15 < Content-Disposition: inline; filename=print.pdf < Vary: User-Agent % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 1742 100 1742 0 0 30301 0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 0* Connection #0 to host web2.xrsnet.com left intact * Closing connection #0 Would some IE users please let me know whether they can view this PDF normally? http://web2.xrsnet.com/publicstore/download?filename=print.pdf&password=foo Any speculation about what might be causing this is extremely welcome. I'm *not* looking forward to rolling back to 2.8.x (and Python 2.3) at this point. -- Kirk Strauser The Day Companies
