Re: [Zope] RE: [ZCommerce] RE: Philip leaves Arsdigita (was: Re:[Zope]kerberos ? + LDAP + ecommerce + ZEO replication etc)
by Richard Volpato 05 Apr '01

I am new to this list. I had been seeking insights and tools to run zope with ecommerce. The blend of zope with OpenACS ecommerce seems just right. Maybe DC need not do it, but it seems obvious to me that it should * encourage and direct * such a project. Current projects do not seem up to it. Albert Langer seems keen on (even zealous) about the project - co-opt him in some way, if you have to. E-commerce is an application. But the OpenACS version makes it an 'infra-structure' for community building. This 'community enabling infrastructure' (Open)ACS really understands. It's an understanding embedded in its SQL. They know how to transform a 'customer' into a 'member'. I see no evidence that the zope community understands this deep wisdom about the nature of e-commerce as a 'collaborative co-production' rather than a simple transaction. Ironically, zope seems ideally suited to leverage this wisdom and its tools. In particular, from interview comments I noticed from Paul E., the zope people really understand the value of meta-data and collecting it 'on the fly'. It is a small step to extending the source of 'meta-data' from users and documents to *fellow*-users and *linked* documents respectively. This gets you to 'collaborative filtering'. It's also a small step for the resulting 'customers - cum - members' to access e-commerce in order to buy documents and services found within the trusted environs of their digital 'community'. Inevitably, Zope will need ecommerce - content management with 'delegation', meta-data, dynamic publishing etc *without* an e-commerce infra-structure seems misguided. It's probably a mind-set: meta-data, dynamic publishing,etc involve web applications and server technologies, not so much industrial strength transaction databases. Postgresql with its enhancements means Zope could offer a new vision about transacting on the web, just like it has on publishing on the web. To simply think 'e-commerce' is just some business 'extra' is to be missing the wood for the trees. Strike now! while the OpenACS developer community looks for new alliances to restore their faith in 'open-source'. For my part, even an announcement that DC was 'investigating' would be enough to convince my clients that this would be the way to go - thus getting some resource to help in the effort. I can't be alone in this. Richard Volpato

Xron on Zope v.2.3.1
by Spicklemire, Jerry 05 Apr '01

Chris mentioned: > Something Loren e-mailed me a few weeks ago spurred me to check the > permissions Xron has as it runs--it basically runs as an anonymous user and > has to have a proxy permission setting in order to perform certain > operations. This doesn't apply when you're logged in and triggering the > method since it's then running as "you." Good idea! I'll double check Xron's proxy setting and make sure it's set to "manager". Thanks, Jerry S.

Hi all, I had a sendmail problem, whenever I send out a mail from zope, it always contain an empty "To" ,"From" and "Subject", but I was able to get the body of the mail, anyone got this problem before ?? I'm using Zope 2.1.6 on NT and the mail server is from Lotus, and the form processor syntax as below : <dtml-sendmail smtphost="mail.xyz.com" mailto="wai(a)xyz.com" mailfrom="wai(a)xyz.com" Subject="Testing from my machine"> mail body </dtml-sendmail> Thanks.

DTML error...
by Hostway Generic 05 Apr '01

05 Apr '01

First of all, I can't stand how Zope acutally runs inputted dtml through its parser to check for errors or whatever, when you 'Save changes' on a website... and then looses the changes...sigh. :) I'm having a problem with the following script, it gives me an error when I save, that its missing a closing <dtml-sendmail> tag. -------- start --------- <table width="100%" cellspacing="6" cellpadding="0" border="0"> <tr> <td width="150" valign="top"><dtml-var standard_menubar></td> <td align="middle" valign="top"> <dtml-try> <dtml-sendmail mailhost="MailHost"> To: <dtml-if expr="AUTHENTICATED_USER.getUserName() != 'Anonymous User'"> <dtml-var Message_To> <dtml-else> metatron(a)myseraph.org </dtml-if> From: <dtml-var expr="AUTHENTICATED_USER.getUserName()"> (mySeraph.org User) Subject: <dtml-var Message_Subject> You have been sent a message from the mySeraph.org website. The message is from: <dtml-var expr="AUTHENTICATED_USER.getUserName()"> Please note that you can not respond to this message in email. <dtml-if expr="AUTHENTICATED_USER.getUserName() != 'Anonymous User'> You may reply to the sender by entering a message into the following site: http://www.mySeraph.org/Contact/?Message_To=<dtml-var expr="AUTHENTICATED_USER.getUserName()"> Message as follows: ---------------------------------------------------- <dtml-var Message_Text> ---------------------------------------------------- Message end. </dtml-sendmail> <dtml-except> <h2>Ack!

Images and dtml-var?
by Chris Muldrow 05 Apr '01

05 Apr '01

OK, hopefully a simple question: I have an image object called BlueDot. We're running Zope behind Apache proxy pass. What takes more system resources to display the image, <dtml-var BlueDot> or <img src="BlueDot>? Or is it the same? Thanks! - Chris -- Chris Muldrow, muldrow(a)mac.com
