RE: [Zope] Cannot get to management screens! (stuck in view page)

Hi all Ok it does seem to be a problem with Internet Exploder - I tried Netscape and it worked fine! My question is, why now after more than a year of usage!!?? Must I reinstall Zope or IE? Regards Etienne -----Original Message----- From: Etienne Labuschagne [mailto:etiennel@geospace.co.za] Sent: Monday, May 28, 2001 10:42 AM To: Zope user list (E-mail) Subject: [Zope] Cannot get to management screens! (stuck in view page) Hi all Suddenly, and without any apparent reason, I cannot get into the management screens when I use the /manage option after a site's URL. When doing that I only get the "view" screen in the right-hand panel with the site structure left-hand panel. When clicking on another part of the site in the left-hand panel, the right hand only shows a "view" screen of that area and not the management screen. I have tried loggin in as emercency (Administrator) user to see if permissions is not the problem, but that user have got the same problem. When using /manage_workspace after the URL, then I get the tabbed workspace page (as one frame in the browser - no other frames visible). I have seen suggestions of a bug in IE, which may be true, but I have been working for more than a year like this without this problem ever occuring. I have also deleted the siteroot I was using, but that also didn't solve my problem. Any suggestions for a desperate man?

Hi Tino, > how about <dtml-in DATA start=GroupStart size=GroupCount orphan=0> > </dtml-in> ? thanks for the tips. Right now I use a mix of your code and my prior code :). I threw out the TEMP2 by avoiding the use of the "end=" but rather "size=Count" (as you said). Why exactly is "orphan=0" important in this context? Thanks again, Philipp

> hmm... we're already working on a redesign... see > > http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/ZopeOrgCollaborationEnhancement/M ockUp Now that is very not bad! Coming from a graphics artist :) Doesn't use too much real estate. One thing though: the form fields are going to be much bigger, especially in Netscape. Or am I missing something and does Netscape 6/Mozilla 0.8 and up offer the same features as MSIE? Cya Jonathan

Re: [Zope] Newbie question: http-cache, caching elements
by Fernando Fuente 28 May '01

hi eric, thanks so far. i knew about these two possibilities. i would like to use the http-cache. the problem is that i don't know how to cache single elements instead of completly parsed pages. regards, fernando > Hi fernando > > >does anyone know how to cache objects like gifs by a http-cache? my > problem > >is that i have a navigation (constructed via tables) that is set up and > >changes dynamically every time a link is hit. this table includes a small > >picture. i think with the standard http-cache i can only cache "finished" > >html sites. therefore the picture is loaded every time i click on links > >that have not been clicked on before. i would like to cache this special > >element explicetly. can it be done? > > There are two types of cache mangers in Zope: > > The 'Accelerated HTTP Cache Manager' and the 'RAM Cache Manager': > > The first one sets special HTTP headers to help proxies (e.g. web browser > or > squid) to cache your pages, images, etc. properly.

Zope business plan
by Andreas Vallen 28 May '01

28 May '01

Hi list-members, I'm a Zope apprentice and have been closely following the user group for 2 weeks now. The reason for my engagement in Zope is that I'm seeking for a business concept - I have the task of developing a so called business-plan in a university course. Why not take this serious - I thought. So I'm in the process of developing a plan that I might really execute. Convinced of the open-source idea as I am and being rather knowledgeable in Web-application development I thought I would finally try Zope. So - after more days of making the "acquaintance" than I had planned, I've now edited a first rough description of how I think that one can make himself self-employed (and employ other people hopefully) leveraging Zope. I invite anyone interested to look at my writings on http://www.zope.org/Members/vallen2/ . I hope to inspire as many people as possible. Perhaps those of us today doing Zope for our employers, who don't even realize what cost savings we provide to them, can one day be business-partners :-). Comments appreciated! Have fun, Andreas

Re: dtml-Variablen in <dtml-in> loops?
by Philipp Robbel 27 May '01

27 May '01

Hi Tino, the problem I see with your (I agree: much cleaner) code is that for each group you issue a SQL statement. So if I have 1000 groups you'll end up with 1000 SQL queries. In my (ugly :-) code you'd only have 2 sql queries: - the first one: sqlCount (see previous post) - the second (cached) one outside the iterations: DATA=sqlListProjects (large list with 1000*Projects rows). About the caching: I read that in Dieter's Zope Book: http://www.dieter.handshake.de/pyprojects/zope/book/chap3.html So my question remains: is there either DATA[1:a+b] (both a and b are dtml-Variables) possible or <dtml-in .. start=a+b..> (both a and b are dtml-Variables). Thanks again, Philipp -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Tino Wildenhain Gesendet: So 27.5.2001 17:38 An: Philipp Robbel Cc: zope(a)zope.org Betreff: Re: dtml-Variablen in <dtml-in> loops? First of all, you dont have to cache SQL results via dtml-let. Zope does this already for you. If you have 2 queries: sqlGroupList: SELECT DISTINCT GroupID FROM Projects and the other: sqlProjectList(arg_GroupID) SELECT ProjectID, Project FROM Projects WHERE GroupID=<dtml-arg_GroupID type=int> so you can: <dtml-in sqlGroupList> GroupID &dtml-GroupID;: <dtml-in "sqlProjectList(arg_GroupID=GroupID)"> <dtml-unless sequence-start>,</dtml-unless> <dtml-var Project> </dtml-in> </dtml-in> This looks a bit cleaner imho ;) Regards Tino Wildenhain

Starting ZOPE when you don't have access to the machine
by Norman Khine 27 May '01

27 May '01

Hello, I have a virtual server, ie sub-hosting with a virtual sub host, and have configured zope 2.3.2b2 with python 2.0 on freebsd 4.2 I read in a previous post "somewhere" ;^) that if you start zope on a secure shell with ./start & and then close this connection the zope server will stop running. Which is what is happening, if I start the zope server via the shell and live the shell open the server can run forever, unless I restart it, but as soon as I close the shell connection the zope server shuts as well. My question therefore is -- How do I start the ZServer if one does not have access to the actual machine? Many thanks Norman /*/\*\/\*\ /*/ \*\ /*/ \*\ |*| Norman Khine /*/ /*/ /*/ \*\_ |*| |*||*| mailto:norman@khine.net /*/ /*/ /*/\*\/*/ \*\|*| |*||*| Purley, UK /*/ /*/ /*/\*\_/*/ \*\_/*/ |*|____ ^^^^^^^^^^^^/*/^^^^^^^^^^^\*\^^^^^^^^^^^ /*/ \*\
