manage_upload and file objects
by Sedat Yilmazer 28 Jun '01

28 Jun '01

I have a special httpd clinet that sends the file encoded as base64 . In the DocLibrary product they have doc.manage_upload(REQUEST.file) I want to change that to something similar to doc.manage_upload( base64.decodestring(REQUEST.file)) But manage_upload waits for a file or an object that mimics a file and base64.decodestring needs a string ( base64.decode( f1,f2) needs f1 and f2 as file) so I need an object that mimics a file so I can decoded ( file object ??) base64.decode(REQUEST.file, decoded) doc.manage_manageupload( decoded ) is there such an object ? Any suggestions ? Sedat Yilmazer Kibele Iletisim Sis. ve Serv. Ltd.

Want to Build Bulletin Board for Local Events
by Bill Bell 28 Jun '01

28 Jun '01

I am an experienced software developer who is new to Zope. I live in a rural community. As a public service I'd like to build a site that is capable of accepting short notices about upcoming events such as theatre performances, tavern gigs, church suppers, etc and then of displaying them using either a calendar page interface or scrolling list. One of the many reasons that Zope appeals to me is that it seems to make it relatively easy to make it possible for others to post these items themselves. Or, IOW, I can't afford to spend time entering all of these events myself. I don't want to have to learn everything before I do something--if you know what I mean. OTOH I would like to master a substantial part of Zope over the next few months. Would someone be willing to suggest one or two places where I can download Zope systems somewhat like what I want for study and adaptation? Thanks for any help! Bill

This is a problem with your editor. When it's saving it's doing so by: 1. creating a new temporary file (gets created as a file object :-S) 2. deleting the old file (your ZPT) 3. renaming the temporary file. You need to find a way to persuade your editor not to do this ;-) > If I use FTP from within Dreamweaver, it works fine.

A new Zope powered site in education
by Jerome Alet 28 Jun '01

Hi, I'm glad to announce that the new website of the Medicine School of Nice, from Nice-Sophia Antipolis University (France) is now "Zope Powered" (tm) You can get it at: http://wwwmed.unice.fr/ or if DNS is not synced yet, at: http://134.59.53.64/ Some parts are still under heavy Zopisation... It doesn't contain any learning material yet. It was essentially made up by IT students, and unfortunately uses some JavaScript which sucks in Netscape... ------------------------------------------------------- Salut, je suis heureux de vous annoncer que le nouveau site web de la Faculte de Medecine de Nice, Universite de Nice-Sophia Antipolis est desormais "Zope Powered" (tm) Vous pouvez y acceder sur: http://wwwmed.unice.fr ou si le DNS n'est pas encore synchronise, a: http://134.59.53.64/ Quelques parties sont encore en cours de Zopisation intensive...

Confusion over INST_HOME and INSTANCE_HOME
by Tony McDonald 28 Jun '01

28 Jun '01

Hi, I have this which is from a stock 2.3.3 distribution under Solaris: 219 % more start #! /bin/sh reldir=`dirname $0` INST_HOME=`cd $reldir; pwd` export INST_HOME exec /usr/local/bin/python2.1 \ $INST_HOME/z2.py "$@" When started up, this works fine. Looking for INST_HOME in the src tree I get: 220 % find . -print | xargs grep INST_HOME ./inst/make_start.py: varname='INST_HOME' Binary file ./inst/make_start.pyc matches ./start:INST_HOME=`cd $reldir; pwd` ./start:export INST_HOME ./start: $INST_HOME/z2.py "$@" Doing the same for INSTANCE_HOME brings back 52 lines of matches. I'm using the How-To at <http://www.zope.org/Members/4am/instancehome> to have one source installation serve up loads of mini zope sites. It has always worked well under 2.3.0, and here's a 'start' file that does work. Thr python used is 1.52 (Zope 2.3.0) #! /bin/sh reldir=`dirname $0` INSTANCE_HOME=`cd $reldir; pwd` export INSTANCE_HOME PYTHONHOME=/home/zope/Zope-2.3.0-src export PYTHONHOME exec /usr/local/bin/python $PYTHONHOME/z2.py "$@" Whereas this start file under Zope 2.3.3, (note: I've got both INST_HOME and INSTANCE_HOME defined). This is also a python2.1 distribution #! /bin/sh reldir=`dirname $0` INSTANCE_HOME=`cd $reldir; pwd` INST_HOME=`cd $reldir; pwd` export INSTANCE_HOME export INST_HOME PYTHONHOME=/home/zope/Zope-2.3.3-src export PYTHONHOME exec /usr/local/bin/python2.1 $PYTHONHOME/z2.py "$@" Gives an import error 243 % ./start 'import site' failed; use -v for traceback Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/zope/Zope-2.3.3-src/z2.py", line 296, in ? import os, sys, getopt, string ImportError: No module named os Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong here? -- Dr Tony McDonald, Assistant Director, FMCC, http://www.fmcc.org.uk/ The Medical School, Newcastle University Tel: +44 191 243 6140 A Zope list for UK HE/FE http://www.fmcc.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/zope

XML-RPC and REQUEST object
by Sedat Yilmazer 28 Jun '01

28 Jun '01

Hi, I am still in the reading phase and trying to get into xml-rpc to integrate zope with M$. As I look at the Products directory I see lots of functions written in a way depending on the REQUEST object containing all the data. Now If I call up a python method Can I assume that the REQUEST object is filled up with the parameters that I pass via XML-RPC? if so what is the mapping ( structs, arrays and base64 encoded data) ?
