I've been trying to set up Ultraseek Data Adapter with Inktomi Search 4.1 and after following the USeek's side instructions, I haven't succeed at creating the adapter within Zope. This is the error log: An error occurred connecting to the server.

RE: [Zope] Corruption protection
by sean.upton＠uniontrib.com 16 Jul '01

I think you will have to take this from a slightly different perspective. No, you cannot access Zope's ODB from ODBC, since ODBC is only useful from relational datasets. However, you can use RPC protocols from within MS dev tools like XML-RPC which will allow you to create methods that can be used for remote invocation from other programs if you need other tools to have access to date in the object-database. Exporting data to excel, for example, might involve some sode that creates CSV text in a DTML method, and scraping that with a VBA macro in Excel; that wouldn't be too difficult. That said, as far as corruption goes, there are tools out there to repair a broken ZODB by analyzing the transactions within a Data.fs file, and then using python to correct them. Eventually, also, Zope/ZEO will have some replication features (though there are some brute force methods of doing this already) that could be used in an HA-cluster arrangement. If nothing else, use your favorite relational database, and wrap the datasets in object-oriented code to provide a standardized object API to access the data; that way, if you decide to move the data into the ODB you could do it transparently... Good luck on your Zope advocacy...

If I start to use Zope as a database I'm concerned about database corruption and transferability. When a table becomes corrupt in Access it is usually easily fixed or replaced from backup as a last resort. I think PostgreSQL uses seperate files for it's tables so the can be replace if needed. What happens if the Zope database gets corrupt? It is a monolithic file. Also, what about exporting data for use in a different database or program? Can I read the zope database with ODBC? If I ever needed to convert to another database what about exporting the data? These are questions I'm going to have to answer in justifying introducing Zope. I already bought the t-shirt so I'm really hoping I can make this fly at work. -mjm _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope(a)zope.org http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Deletion Problems
by Eric Vautour 16 Jul '01

16 Jul '01

Here is one for the gurus out there. I am trying to set up a Zope site that can be editited by many people. I am setting permissions at the object level, that is I am using local roles to give people permissions to DTML Documents only, and not to folders. My problem is... I am having problems setting Deletion privilages - If I give deletion privalages to a folder, the person I give the permissions to can delete everything in that folder, that is not what I want!!! - If I give a user permission to delete a particular DTML Document, the delete button does not appear. - I editid the code in the main.dtml document so that the delete button will appear all the time, but if the person clicks it, zope will not allow the user to delete it, even thought he/she has permissions to delete it via local roles.....ahhhhh Can anyone help me out on this one? Thanks Eric
