Hi Yvonne, we are trying to solve a similar problem with interbase/ firebird. It's a robust database engine, firebird is open source, and there exist several replication engines for interbase.

Re: [Zope] UPDATE: Problems calling directory

Could you go a bit > into detail with your folder structure? Root +- Portal (CMF Site) | +- Members (Folder) | | +- aem (Folder) | | +- ArticleX (CMF Article) | +- Publications (Folder) | | +- Review (Folder) | | | +- Vol22 (Folder) As you can see I working on a CMF site the is giving me headaches. ArticleX is a customized content that has a 'location' property with the directory where it should show up (ie. 'Publications/Review/Vol22'). In the standard_html_header I call a dtml method (breadcrumbs) where I want to get the fake PARENTS (the lineage of where it should show). Here follows some of the code I was working on: <dtml-if location> Location: &dtml-location; <dtml-let transtab="_.string.maketrans('/', '.')" location2="'Portal.'+_.string.translate(location, transtab)"> Location2: &dtml-location2; Works: <dtml-with "Portal.Publications.Review.Vol22"> This is the <dtml-var document_id> Document in the <dtml-var title_and_id> Folder. </dtml-with> Does not: <dtml-with "_.getitem(_.getitem('location2'))"> This is the <dtml-var document_id> Document in the <dtml-var title_and_id> Folder. </dtml-with> </dtml-let> </dtml-if> I don't know if there is something in the CMF that breaks the logic and I will try that tomorrow. If you see anything that I can try, please let me know.

Re: CoreSessionTracking
by Chris McDonough 20 Apr '01

Hi Uwe, If possible, continue to cc the Zope list on this... thanks... You can explicitly cause a transaction to be committed, but not in DTML or in a Python Script. You'll need to use an external method... Here's an example of an function which does this: def commit_trans(): get_transaction().commit() Make an external method named commit_trans, reference this function from within the external method UI, and then from dtml, you can do this: <dtml-call commit_trans> ... right before the raise. This should save the session data, then it won't matter if you raise afterwards in the DTML. HTH, - C ----- Original Message ----- From: "Uwe C.

No I don't think that there's another way to do handle loginmanager. Loginmanager gets called on an authorization exception. The LoginForm isn't called directly, but gets called on any object a user tries to view without proper authentication. I don't know much about ZODB transactions, but probably you know if there's a way to finish the old transaction and start a new one ? Thanks - I'll try to remove the raise. Regards Uwe C.

html version of zope site
by Mike Blake 20 Apr '01

20 Apr '01

Hi! First of all: We have a client that (because of lame internal policy) will not be able to install zope on the final server. However, they _do_ want zope as a publishing solution for a web that will be practically nothing but dtml docs, images, and folders. They're only intested in accessing the web interface to modify text in custom zclass product interfaces we will make for them. Provided that there are no complicated methods integrated into the zope structure, is it possible to generate a navegable static html version of a zope hierarchy? Our idea is to let them access our server to manage and edit content and to give them a publish option (written in python or perl) that generates the html and ftps the site to a remote, non-zope webserver. The day that the client wants a more dynamic site with searching and such, we would discuss installing zope again on the remote server. Please give me your thoughts on this workaround solution. thanks, -- [morcilla(a)ketden.com chikoon]$ whoami Mike Blake

how to change a title from python script?
by alex 19 Apr '01

19 Apr '01

Hey guys, does anyone of you know how can an object title be changed without using the ugly manage_edit() method ? I was expecting something more intuitive as in dtml_method.title = 'new title instead of: dtml_method.mange_edit(data=dtml_object, title='new title') reasons why I dont like manage_edit() ? - It's a complete different method on each object. so you have to call it with different arguments depending the object you want to edit. - It's not intuitive at all! thanks for your help ! Alex

hasRole (Bug or My brain is dead?)
by Hamish Lawson 19 Apr '01

Just a suggestion: You may want to consider whether it would be better to test whether the user has the appropriate permission using has_permission(), rather than for whether they have a particular role.

Problem with xmlrpc and manage_pasteObjects
by Juan Carlos Coruña 19 Apr '01

19 Apr '01

I have another xmlrpc replated problem: If I test the following script (python) with the Zope management interface it works ok, but if I call the script from outside Zope using xmlrpc I become an Fault error: xmlrpclib.Fault: <Fault -2: 'Unexpected Zope error value: Add Documents, Images, and Files'> This is the script: # Create a unique document id id = 'pepe' context.tmp.manage_addProduct['OFSP'].addDTMLDocument(id, title="", file='esto es una prueba') doctmp = getattr(context.tmp, id) doctmp.manage_addProperty('sender', 'loginName', 'string') doctmp.manage_addProperty('sessionId', 'session', 'string') # move the message to the queue obj = context.tmp.manage_cutObjects(ids=[id]) context.manage_pasteObjects(obj) return id If I comment the line "context.manage_pasteObjects(obj)" Zope doesn't produce the error response. Is there a limitations using manage_pasteObjects with xmlrpc? Any solutions?

ZPT/TALES question
by Tim Moore 19 Apr '01

19 Apr '01

OK, so my site has a standard METAL template that all of the templates in the site use. It contains navigation links and such. I want one of those links to always go to the index_html page that's at the same level of the hierarchy as the standard template macro. The problem is that if I use a path like "here/index_html/absolute_url", then "here" is considered relative to the template that uses the macro, not the one that defines it. Can anyone offer any suggestions? thanks! -- Tim Moore
