I installed/deinstalled zope-2.3.2 several times everytime I get this error message. File /usr/local/zope/2-3-2/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 110, in ? File /usr/local/zope/2-3-2/lib/python/ZODB/FileStorage.py, line 264, in __init__ File /usr/local/zope/2-3-2/lib/python/ZODB/lock_file.py, line 101, in lock_file StorageSystemError: Could not lock the database file. There must be another process that has opened the file. <p> I could not login to the server by telnet. And then boot the system as "linux single", and deleted zope, and re-boot, and reinstall it. I really do not know what to do. Please help me out. Thanks. Joo-yung

Re: [Zope] Method vs. Doc.

I write now with the knowledge of my "Newbie Acquisition Question" question... :) Maybe this should be in the FAQ? (says he without checking the FAQ ;) A DTML Document is a 'proper' object. It has properties. It execuates in its own context. A DTML Method exectutes in the context of another object. This is based on an example from the Zope book. Imagine you have DTML Method called 'Feed' in the root folder. Then you have a series of folders, 'Elephant', 'Tiger', 'Penguin' etc. under the root folder. Inside each of these is a DTML Document, 'Dinner', containing the name of the food that the animal in question likes to eat. The Feed method in the root folder ir written to look at this 'Dinner' DTML Document to find out the type of food to use. OK, so now we can visit things like: /Elephant/Feed /Penguin/Feed ... and all is well. The 'Feed' method is being acquired from the root folder *in the context of* the animal concerned. So what happens if we change the 'Feed' DTML Method to a DTML Document? Well, when we visit /Elephant/Feed we will find that suddenly Zope cannot find the critical 'Dinner' DTML Document, because crucially, the 'Feed' DTML Document will *execute in the context of the root folder*. It therefore cannot acquire the 'Dinner' document, because it is executing 'higher up' the hierarchy. To conclude: DTML Documents execute in a *fixed context* (the one they're created in) DTML Methods can execute in *any context they're acquired in* (the object they're called on) Thanks to the two guys who replied to my previous mail and the authors of the Zope Book who finally got my head round this :) Hope that helps, and I hope I'm right! :) Cheers, Dan _________________________________________________________________ Daniel Fairs | daniel.fairs(a)spiderplant.net | www.spiderplant.net

hi, I have a bit of text, that for some reason is extending out of it's little area in some versions of IE (5.5) I think. You can have a boo at: http://jleach1.dsl.kamloops.net/g1 That is a screenshot from one of the IE that does not work. If it's just a silly IE but or feature, and I suspect it is, then pardon this msg. thanks, j. ...................... ..... Jason C. Leach ... University College of the Cariboo. ..

Uploading Picutres via WebForm?
by Philipp Robbel 05 Jun '01

05 Jun '01

Hello everybody, I have a question regarding the upload of pictures through a webform. Right now my code only works with a 'hard-coded-ID'-value (see below). ===== code (dtml method "upPicture" - calls itself after submitting file selection form) ===== <dtml-if expr="REQUEST.form.keys()"> <dtml-if "attached_file.filename">  <dtml-call "manage_addImage('HARD_CODED_ID', attached_file.read(), ' ')"> <dtml-else> Please choose a picture!!!. </dtml-if> <dtml-else> <h2>Upload Picure:</h2> <p><form method="post" action="upPicture" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <input type="file" name="attached_file"> <input type=submit name="submit"> </form> </dtml-if> =============================================================== The above code works fine, it creates a new image object out of the selected file. But what I want is to change the HARD_CODED_ID into the current filename, i.e. if the person selects "C:\Temp\pic.jpg" for uploading I want the function manage_addImage to be called with the following arguments: 'pic.jpg', attached_file.read(), ' ' I tried dtml-call "manage_addImage(attached_file, attached_file.read(), ' ')"> or: "manage_addImage(attached_file.filename, attached_file.read(), ' ')"> I couldn't get it to work. Thanks for your help in advance, Philipp

Call a string function
by Montagne, Michael 05 Jun '01

Their is a function called zfill that can change a number (ie 49) into "00049". The numbers I return from my database are jobnumbers so they should show up with at least five digits. How do I call this function in a zope page? -mjm
