talking to Sybase from FreeBSD 4.2
by Reinoud van Leeuwen 03 May '01

03 May '01

Hello world, being fairly new (but already enthousiastic:-) on Zope, I am trying to get my Zope 2.3.1 (on Python 2.0) talking to a Sybase (11.0.3.3) database, from a FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE box. (Zope 2.3.1 on Py 2.0 is what the current port makes of it) (My Zope is running inside a FreeBSD jail, but I do not think this is relevant to my problem). I have looked on recent information about Sybase and Zope, but everything seems to be about two years old :-(. The instructions from The_Jester do not work (I think the diff files are too old) When I try to build the Sybase DA (SybaseDA-2_0b2) from the instructions in the README, it stops somewhere by complaining that /usr/local/lib/python2.0/config/Setup.thread is not found (and indeed this file was in python 1.5 but not in 2.0)... Has anyone recently gotten this to work? (either with native Sybase libraries or FreeTDS libraries) Or should I try to use SQL relay? TIA, Reinoud

Anounce: Zope Geeks dot Org
by Tane Piper 03 May '01

03 May '01

Hi there everyone, Not trully satisfied with the current zope sites out there, and needing a home for my upcoming zope projects, I have started www.zopegeeks.org (currently at http://tanepiper.zopesite.com/squishdot/ until the domain name propigates). It will be located on Zopesite for the meantime, until I sort out hosting of my own. The two projects I will be focusing on will be: ZGeeklog is the Zope port of Geeklog, a PHP based weblog and portal system. (I wanted to call it Zopelog, but that was taken!) ZBB is a Bulletin Board system, similar to Ultimate Bulletin Board, PHPBB and other similar systems. Now, I have no timeframe for either of these projects, they will be started and finished when I am ready (read: not too busy). Any comments/suggestions/ideas are welcome.

Firstly, I created a html document in Word with "save as HTML" in ZODB then I closed Word. Secondly, I opened the Zope html document in Word but this one was in "READ ONLY" !!!

CookieCrumbler Questions
by Dirksen 03 May '01

03 May '01

Hi Shane, 1. You mentioned a security hole in the list, but I couldn't find the description of it. Would you explain? 2. 'this product depends on a new publisher traversal hook', but I still don't get it after reading your code in CMFCore. What's the hook? 3. I'd like to plug away the Crumbler class from CMF, and stick it to my own product. What should I keep in mind? Cheers Dirksen Lau __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Hi, Can anyone explain the advantages (if any) of running Zope under a real user instead of under nobody?

Hi Joachim, Thanks for reminding me of this post... I did see it but I understood it to mean that the current ZPatterns won't benefit from the improved BTrees , not that it would break it completely...

Zope 2.3.1 Catalog is there a bad bug in this?
by Max M 02 May '01

02 May '01

I have upgraded Zope from an older version to 2.3.1 and I get this error when searching for a known item:: Error Type: KeyError Error Value: 43 It comes when using the code:: <dtml-var "Catalog.getpath(data_record_id_)"> Is this due to a Catalog bug in 2.3.1 ??? (I'd rather want to avoid upgrading to 2.3.2 as I have to travel to get to the site with the installation.) Regards Max M Max M. W. Rasmussen, Denmark.

RE: [Zope] Announce: GreetingCard-0.2 (development)
by Farrell, Troy 02 May '01

Cool! I can't wait to see the PDF stuffs. You might want to make the id's randomly generated and sort by titles, though. Also, I got a Zope error from the add button after previewing the created card. Apparently, the form on the preview page fails to pass REQUEST['id'] to whatever method the add button is invoking. I'd like to try it here. Let us know when you have a download URL. Troy It's so Exciting(TM) to see all the new announcements recently: Zope Book, French Zope Book, This, and the audio product. Go Zope! -----Original Message----- From: Ed Colmar [mailto:edc@mail.8days.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 02, 2001 1:48 PM To: zope(a)zope.org Subject: [Zope] Announce: GreetingCard-0.2 (development) Hi Everyone! I am building zope based web tools for a printing company in Colorado, called Eight Days A Week. The management recently decided to open the source that I have been developing. One more victory for the freedom fighters! The first piece of code to near release quality is a greeting card toolkit. It uses zope for data storage, image upload, html generation, and management functionality. LocalFS and reportlab are used to generate PDF formatted high-resolution cards set up with cropmarks to print. The code is still Alpha quality with several areas where significant improvement can be made, but is functional as is. A demo is running here: http://www.8daw.com:8080/greetingcards/ (zope 2.3 : Mandrake 7.2 linux) You will not be able to use the PDF tools, unless you install it somewhere with management access. Hope you all like it! Please let me know if you find it useful, or make any changes. -ed- _______________________________________________ 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 )

[Ann] emulateRedirect: emulates redirection inside Zope
by Dieter Maurer 02 May '01

02 May '01

The common task: A user fills a form and submits it. The submitted data is checked and if problems are detected, the user gets its original form together with a problem indication *AND* his already filled in data. is not yet well supported. A redirection to the form suffers from browser differences in the handling of the old request data and the difficulty to add all of them into the redirected URL. Presenting the form without redirection is possible but has several caveats: Side effects caused before the problem has been detected are difficult to discard. The 'base' used by the browser for URL resolution may become wrong, seriously confusing the browser and/or Zope. The small External Method 'emulateRedirect' emulates a redirect without an extra interaction with the browser. It resets the REQUEST parameters such that they get the same values as for a direct traversal to the redirected object. Furthermore, it sets the 'base' tag used by the browser for resolution of relative URL such that relative references from the redirected to object become correct. 'emulateRedirect' provides control over the transaction ('abort', 'commit', 'keep'). 'emulateRedirect' works for Zope 2.3. It may work with Zope 2.2. As it uses undocumented Zope publishing features, it may break with any new Zope version. More information and download via: URL:http://www.dieter.handshake.de/pyprojects/zope Dieter
