Problem starting zope on Win98
by Ben Edwards 05 Mar '01

05 Mar '01

I have installed zope on a 500mhz laptop with 64MB. When I run start.bat the server, ftp and pcgi comes up but when I type http://192.168.0.11:8080 (my ip address:80) or http://localhost:8080 or http://green:8080 (machine name) I get can't find server. Don't know if this is relevant but start.bat brings up a command window, runs the python program (outputting host names and ports for the three 'services') and douse not return to the dos prompt. I assume this is because it is not ruining in background in the same way it douse on NT.

disable WebDAV and XML-RPC?
by Ragnar Beer 05 Mar '01

05 Mar '01

Howdy! Following the "deny everything that isn't explicitly allowed" policy I'd like to disable WebDAV and XML-RPC access to Zope. Is ist possible to disable them in Zope or do I have to catch the requests before they reach Zope? Ragnar

Did you hear the story about the boy who cried "Wolf\!". I found the answer to my question. I have to treat the tokens like a list. http://www.zope.org/Members/cba/tokens_usage Thanks for reading. Troy -----Original Message----- From: Farrell, Troy [mailto:troy.farrell@wilcom.com] Sent: Monday, March 05, 2001 9:32 AM To: 'zope(a)zope.org' Subject: [Zope] manage_changeProperties example needed The Zope Help/API docs/PropertySheet page says that I can use manage_changeProperties: manage_changeProperties(REQUEST=None, **kw): I always see people using it like this: manage_changeProperties(REQUEST) The help file says I can use name=value pairs, but I can't seem to implement this. I don't understand the format it wants.

I don't know if you can tell, but I am only interested in changing the property 'logfile_line_ids'(tokens type).

RE: [Zope] How to check for a folder's existence and create it if it doesn'texist?
by Randall F. Kern 05 Mar '01

05 Mar '01

try something like this, assuming the id of the folder you want is 'myFolder': <dtml-if expr="'myFolder' not in objectIds('Folder')"> <dtml-call expr="manage_addFolder('myFolder', 'title of my new folder')"> </dtml-if> The problem with using <dtml-in> is it will try to add the new folder once for every folder in the parent folder, and will fail to create the folder if the parent folder is empty. -Randy > -----Original Message----- > From: Paul Zwarts [mailto:paul.zwarts@oratrix.com] > Sent: Wednesday, February 28, 2001 8:55 AM > To: Chris Muldrow > Cc: zope(a)zope.org > Subject: Re: [Zope] How to check for a folder's existence and > create it > if it doesn'texist? > > > Hi! > > Perhaps something like this: > > <dtml-in expr="objectValues('Folder')"> > <dtml-if id==2001> > Matches > <dtml-else> > <dtml-call > "nameofFolder.manage_addFolder('titleofFolder', 'something > else?')"> > </dtml-if> > </dtml-in> > > You'll have to check if that actually works, because somehow > it seems wrong... > but anyhow, It should be enough to go on.... > > Im pretty much a newbie, but I had alot of help from the list > today, so I try > to return the favour : ) > Cheers, > Paz > > > Chris Muldrow wrote: > > > I'm trying create a method to go through a site and create > certain folders > > if they don't already exist.

conceptual problem with acquisition
by Oliver Frommel 05 Mar '01

05 Mar '01

Hello, although I already created some sites with Zope I now encountered a problem that I am not able to solve with acquisition, i.e. to make a parent subfolder work as a fallback resource. Directories look like this: /pics/logo.gif /dir/subdir1/pics/logo.gif /dir/subdir1/index_html (subdir1 is a zclass and index_html a method of it) /dir/subdir2/pics/logo.gif /dir/subdir2/index_html (subdir2 is a zclass and index_html a method of it) /dir/subdir3/pics/ (empty!) /dir/subdir3/index_html (subdir3 is a zclass and index_html a method of it) The index_html contains a reference to the pic: <img src="pics/logo.gif"> Now when the subdirX/pics/ doesn't not contain a logo.gif, acquisition also does not work because it stops on finding the pics folder in the subdirX. This is exactly the scenario, Rik Hoekstra describes in http://www.zope.org/Members/Hoekstra/ChangingZopeContexts. Unfortunately non of the workarounds he mentions are appropriate because a) I need an image folder for each subdir (see below) b) I can't reference images from the parent c) the pic directories need to have the same name this all because the rationale behind this is to enable index_html to look differently _dependent_ on the existence of logo.gif. the site designers are meant to be able to change index_html's appearance just by uploading a new logo.gif. If this is not present, the one of the parent should be used. I think it would work if I put the images directly in subdirX and in the root dir but this is pretty ugly and should only serve as a last ressort IMHO. is there any way / product / trick to make this concept work with subdirs?? thanks for your help --Oliver

another thing that occurred recently .. trying to add a python script. the funny thing is I am _not_ logged in as the emergency user but as a user I created called "manager", with only the Manager role. I am running Zope 2.3.0 on Linux 2.2.16 Error Type: EmergencyUserCannotOwn Error Value: Objects cannot be owned by the emergency user traceback: File /home/oliver/Zope2/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 222, in publish_module File /home/oliver/Zope2/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 187, in publish File /home/oliver/Zope2/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 221, in zpublisher_exception_hook File /home/oliver/Zope2/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 171, in publish File /home/oliver/Zope2/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: manage_addPythonScript) File /home/oliver/Zope2/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 112, in call_object (Object: manage_addPythonScript) File /home/oliver/Zope2/lib/python/Products/PythonScripts/PythonScript.py, line 121, in manage_addPythonScript File /home/oliver/Zope2/lib/python/OFS/ObjectManager.py, line 289, in _setObject (Object: LockableItem) File /home/oliver/Zope2/lib/python/AccessControl/Owned.py, line 276, in manage_fixupOwnershipAfterAdd (Object: findimage) EmergencyUserCannotOwn: (see above) what can I do do fix this?? thanks --Oliver
