[BUG] [Zserver] GET and HEAD give different MIME types

application/octet-stream is sent when I HEAD while the proper text/html is sent if I GET??? And I don't have the same headers at all? ludwigV:/tmp % telnet www.sources.org 9673 Trying 172.19.1.1...

Yes, this works fine on the Mac. I suspect the difference is because on the Mac they are taking the http content types to figure out the content, but on Windows they are being lazy and using the file extension. Why they didn't use the same code I don't know. To make Dreamweaver on Windows happy, we name our index files "index.html" and then have a DTML method for index_html which is just <dtml-var index.html>. Most of our content people use Dreamweaver (on Macintosh and Windows) to edit Zope sites and are very happy with it.

So you are able to get the information straight before/while it hits the backend. cheers, oliver

I assume, because preferences of Python, Zope's implementation language, have had a higher priority than Windows preferences ;-) Python does not like periods in names. > * Should I install 2.2.2. now, or are there any WebDav-updates in 2.2.4? I do not think, the two version will differ in WebDAV support (though someone is working on locking through WebDAV). However, if I would start a new project, I would go for 2.2.4 (I expect less bugs than 2.2.2). > * Is it possible to backup all files from Zope easily?

Objects in Zope not only have content, but properties, security attributes, ownership, modification times .... All these will not be extractable by WebDAV. I would go for the backup of the complete proprietary database. At least as the primary backup. As an additional safety belt, I might think about backing up the content independently. Dieter

strange behaviour of ZSQL methods
by Martin Winkler 29 Nov '00

29 Nov '00

Hi listies, something strange is happening with my ZSQL methods. I have a huge query that works great when testing it in the management-interface - it returns about 10 records or so. but when I implement it into a dtml-method getting the parameters via X-Y-GMX: $flush REQUEST as usual, I am getting the whole database in return. I'm quite sure that it's my own fault, so I'd like to see the translated SQL-query in the dtml-method to check for the wrong fields. Is there a tag for it like: <dtml-var MyZSQLQuery showRenderedSQLsource> ? This problem drives me nuts since already two days :-(( Martin

Editing SQL methods from Emacs (+ FTP server)?
by Stephane Bortzmeyer 29 Nov '00

29 Nov '00

All the texts explaining the wonders of Zope tell that you can edit your DTML files from (X)Emacs, and not from the lame editor you get from your browser with the default HTML form. It works great for DTML but ange-ftp (GNU emacs 20.7) refuses to open the SQL methods ("File exists but cannot be read"). Is there a solution, besides writing it offline and uploading it into Zope?

Re: [Zope] authentication

I'd be willing to bet that you're not properly giving the "Manager" role to the content management user you create. You need to select "Manager" from the list of roles shown on the user creation form when you create the user. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Olaf Zanger" <olaf.zanger(a)soli-con.com> To: "Chris McDonough" <chrism(a)digicool.com> Sent: Wednesday, November 29, 2000 7:04 AM Subject: Re: [Zope] authentication > hi chris, > > > Have you read the "security" section of the "Zope Book" draft?

ZTopics not working right --Error Value: Vocabulary
by Umesh Soni 29 Nov '00

29 Nov '00

Hi I am trying to use ZTopics to create a visual hierarchy. I've got ZTopics installed ok but I am having problems with using them. If I create a top level ZTopic all is well and the ztopic will filter my catalog fine. However, if I try to create a hierarchy -even if only one level deep, I get the following error. Error Type: AttributeError Error Value: Vocabulary Traceback (innermost last): File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.4b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 222, in publish_module File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.4b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 187, in publish File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.4b1-src/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 221, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: Traversable) File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.4b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 171, in publish File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.4b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: index_html) File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.4b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 112, in call_object (Object: index_html) File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.4b1-src/lib/python/OFS/DTMLMethod.py, line 172, in __call__ (Object: index_html) File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.4b1-src/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_String.py, line 528, in __call__ (Object: index_html) File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.4b1-src/lib/python/Products/ZTopic/Topic.py, line 180, in contents (Object: Traversable) File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.4b1-src/lib/python/Products/ZTopic/Topic.py, line 228, in _contentsSet (Object: Traversable) File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.4b1-src/lib/python/SearchIndex/UnTextIndex.py, line 401, in _apply_index File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.4b1-src/lib/python/SearchIndex/UnTextIndex.py, line 476, in query File /usr/local/Zope-2.2.4b1-src/lib/python/SearchIndex/UnTextIndex.py, line 196, in getLexicon AttributeError: (see above) I haven't a clue if the problem is with ZTopics or the lexicon stuff within zope.
