changing listening port for zope
by Daniel Godefroy 25 Mar '06

25 Mar '06

Hello, I just installed zope - icoya and started learning it. I want to use it with a friend having to access it from his house. My router tells me that there is a conflict with remote access control using 8080. I tried to use port 80. From the icoya quick start there was a link to set the server to listen to port 80. I used it and it notified me that the change was done and to set the listener to port 80 using the zope.conf file. I modify the zope.conf file in the etc folder in zope and restarted the server. Then i was not able to use the quickstart anymore. In addition i could go into my portal but it told me that I did not defined any user, which I did. I restored zope.conf to use 8080 and everything is back to normal. Could you tell me how to have the server listen to port 80 for zope management interface as well as the portals created.

How do you get custom made portal tabs to highlight
by JulianRead 25 Mar '06

25 Mar '06

Hi i have made 3 portal tabs which link to 3 different pages in my site. ( In the same way that in www.plone.org there are the portal tabs home, about, documentation etc. ) I am trying to find out how to highlight these tabs when the user is in that corresponding page or its subpages. Thank you -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-do-you-get-custom-made-portal-tabs-to-highlight-t… Sent from the Zope - General forum at Nabble.com.

ZCatalog Strategy
by Mark Gibson 24 Mar '06

24 Mar '06

I'm struggling to weigh the cost of getObject() vs. the cost of adding more metadata to the catalog. I'll explain my situation. I have 10,000 widgets cataloged. I do a path and date query that returns me maybe 12 of these. Then I have a choice of calling getObject().getData() on each of these, or I could add getData to the catalog metadata. Does the cost of calling getObject() for a dozen objects justify creating a new metadata field? More generally how does a large amount of metadata in the catalog affect performance of queries? The wisdom of those more knowledgeable than me would be appreciated. Mark

Screwy permissions problem has me stumped
by Kirk Strauser 24 Mar '06

24 Mar '06

My Zope server uses exUserFolder and PostgreSQL for authentication. I turned on query logging today for unrelated reasons, and noticed an almost continuous stream of queries: SELECT * FROM passwd where upper(username)=upper('kirk') SELECT * FROM passwd where upper(username)=upper('kirk') SELECT * FROM passwd where upper(username)=upper('kirk') SELECT * FROM passwd where upper(username)=upper('kirk') where "kirk" is my own username. The problem was that I wasn't logged in at the time. I traced the problem back to our main page template, which starts with: <head> <title>Example.com : <span tal:replace="template/title_or_id">Page Title</span></title> </head> Being curious, I changed my username in the PostgreSQL table to "kirk_foo", and watched as my logfiles began filling with 401 errors with backtraces like: Time 2006/03/23 13:46:38.832 US/Central User Name (User Id) ourcustomer (ourcustomer) Request URL http://www.example.com/invoices/index_html Exception Type Unauthorized Exception Value You are not allowed to access 'title_or_id' in this context as customers get messages like: Site Error An error was encountered while publishing this resource. Error Type: Unauthorized Error Value: You are not allowed to access 'title_or_id' in this context Now, "ourcustomer" has full rights to the "invoices" folder and all files in it, but they can't execute the "title_or_id" method on objects inside. Also, how on Earth did my username get dragged into this? As the main site developer, I own all the objects in the site, but I don't have any odd Proxy access set up. I can't figure out why customers are trying to call title_or_id as me in the first place, let alone why it fails. Any insight? -- Kirk Strauser The Day Companies

CSS Best practises
by John Huttley 24 Mar '06

24 Mar '06

Thanks to everyone for your thoughts. In summary, no one mentioned ZStylesheets. Files are ok, but no one is concerned about hierarchies. For example having a site level look and feel with specific styles for certain areas, such as tables. I'll go with the file at the top level.. Regards, john
