redirecting from within an access rule
by tav 22 Jun '01

22 Jun '01

hi there i am trying to set up an access rule, so that requests to different domains will be redirected to the "default" domain. e.g. http://www.espra.com/foo/bar would redirect to http://espra.net/foo/bar, where "espra.net" is the default domain. to do this, i have a TinyTable (redirect_index) setup: ---------------------------------- | host_name, redirect_to ---------------------------------- | "espra.org", "espra.net" | "espra.com", "espra.net" | "www.espra.org", "espra.net" | "www.espra.net", "espra.net" | "www.espra.com", "espra.net" ---------------------------------- and an access rule: <dtml-in "redirect_index(HTTP_HOST)"> <dtml-unless "redirect_to == ''"> <dtml-let to_new_url="_.string.replace(URL0,HTTP_HOST,redirect_to)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.RESPONSE.redirect(to_new_url)"> </dtml-let> </dtml-unless> </dtml-in> i had hoped that the above would redirect to the "default" domain, if it found any of the other domains, in the TinyTable however, the redirect doesn't seem to work as expected within an AccessRule. it redirects all urls to http://espra.net irrespective of the part after the server url e.g. http://www.espra.com/foo/bar would redirect to http://espra.net instead of redirecting to http://espra.net/foo/bar so.... what exactly am i doing wrong here? -- best regards, tav tav(a)espnow.com

Web mail system: Worldpilot, GUM or... recommendations?
by Felipe E. Barousse Boue 22 Jun '01

22 Jun '01

We are currently looking for a Web mail agent, either using something already available on the net or, maybe developing our own. We do not really want to reinvent the wheel. Worldpilot was examined as a good alternative, having exactly the features we currently need, working on the platform of choice (Zope) but, it looks like the latest stable release is for Zope 2.1.x actually all of our sites now run 2.3.3. Even tough Worldpilot installs on Zope 2.3.3, it does have some problems here and there. Has anyone fixed them? Sourceforge pages of WP seem to be abandoned...no response to patches or requests. If anyone can provide comments as of Worldpilot's status running on newer (or latest) version of Zope, it'd be great. Also, comments regarding a project named GUM are welcome. Additional uggestions of other products for the same purpose will be good to have as well. Thanks in advance Felipe Barousse

How to batch upload Photos to ZAlbums?
by Ausum 22 Jun '01

22 Jun '01

I'd like to upload Photo images to a ZAlbum page, the same way it's possible to upload images to a standard folder, via FTP. Is it possible to modify the FTP utility to treat incoming files as product objects like Photo.? Thanks in advance, Ausum

General variable use
by miah34＠msn.com 22 Jun '01

22 Jun '01

Hi! I have a general question about calling variables - or maybe calling functions... the best way is to show with an example. I think you can tell what I'm trying to do here: <dtml-var expr="get_your_info(name=<dtml-var expr="_.SecurityGetUser ()")"> I haven't gotten in to much of the details of python yet, so maybe I just need to get a little further along. The basic question is passing functions as arguments to a function. I hope that made some sense. Thanks Jeremiah

ANN: Tutorial for Zope Page Templates
by Evan Simpson 22 Jun '01

22 Jun '01

There's a brand new tutorial at: http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/ZPT/SimpleTutorial It introduces Zope Page Templates without assuming any familiarity with them, or with DTML or Python. I hope that given this, the language specifications, and the examples, people will no longer feel that ZPT is under-documented :-) Cheers, Evan @ digicool

Three questions: No response in Mozilla, VersionLockErrors, and transactions in Postgres with ZPoPyDA
by Scott Anderson 22 Jun '01

22 Jun '01

Hi all, Right now I'm running Zope in single-threaded mode, just to forstall any questions of that nature. Also: Zope 2.3.3 binary on RedHat 6.2, PostgreSQL 7.1, PoPy 2.0.2, ZPoPyDA 1.2, exUserFolder 0.5.0 Question 1: There is something very odd with Postgres and transactions. I will very often find a postgres process in the list with "idle in transaction". Typically when that happens, I can check the logs and discover that a commit has not been performed, and database information will not be written. One time while the site was idle, I couldn't add an index without shutting the Zope process down as it had a transaction open. When this happens, I can sometimes run a ZSQL method with only the word "commit;" in it to unstick everything. Question 2: Whenever I use the version feature, working in a version will eventually cause my users to get a VersionLockError just viewing the site. Typically I'll see exUserFolder mentioned in the error: <!-- Traceback (innermost last): File /usr/local/dev/zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 223, in publish_module File /usr/local/dev/zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 187, in publish File /usr/local/dev/zope/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 221, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: Traversable) File /usr/local/dev/zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 175, in publish File /usr/local/dev/zope/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 235, in commit File /usr/local/dev/zope/lib/python/ZODB/Transaction.py, line 300, in commit File /usr/local/dev/zope/lib/python/ZODB/Connection.py, line 377, in commit (Info: (('Products.exUserFolder.pgPropSource.pgPropSource', 'pgPropSource'), '\000\000\000\000\000\000\033\214', '')) File /usr/local/dev/zope/lib/python/ZODB/FileStorage.py, line 663, in store (Object: /usr/local/dev/zope/var/Data.fs) VersionLockError: (see above) Question 3: Mozilla (20010612) goes off into la-la land occasionally with my ZOPE site. I can hit a link, Mozilla will sit there churning forever, and while Mozilla is churning I can go into Netscape and pick the same link, getting the page immediately. Any ideas, or take this up with the Mozilla team? Thanks in advance for any information/help you may have, -scott anderson

Installation Product
by Solenn CROGUENNEC 22 Jun '01

22 Jun '01

Hello, We work actually on the platform Windows. We want to download a product which called 'MySQL Database Interface'. We download the product and we record on the hard disk on C:/Zope/lib/python/products. The problem is, when we restart the server Zope, the product doesn't appear on the list of Products. We thinks there are variables to change on the setup file like include_dirs = ['/usr/include/mysql'] library_dirs = ['/usr/lib/mysql'] but we don't know what directories will put. Could you help us ? Thanks Valérie & Solenn

I was just working on a similar problem. I'm not sure if this is the right way to do it, but if I'm wrong, somebody will correct me. Try this: <dtml-in rowsnamesmethod> <dtml-var expr="_.getitem(rowname,1)"> </dtml-in> My understanding is that the '1' tells it to render the variable. If you put in a '0' instead, it just displays it - probably like what you're getting now.
