Problem with "Python Script" in Zope-2.2.x-to-2.2.4-win32-x86.tgz or in my brain???
by Max M 28 Nov '00

28 Nov '00

I just upgraded Zope on my Win 2K machine with Zope-2.2.x-to-2.2.4-win32-x86.tgz But I cannot find "Python Methods" or "Python Scripts" anywhere. Is it me being stupid or is the product missing from that tarball?? Regards Max M Max M. W. Rasmussen, Denmark.

Python method: recursive function gives NameError
by Willem Broekema 28 Nov '00

28 Nov '00

I have a simple recursive function in a Python method that gives a NameError (2.2.4 on Win98). The function (in PM named 'rec'): --- def myfunc(i): if i >= 10: return myfunc(1) else: return 1 return myfunc(11) --- The end of the traceback: --- File c:\myzopeinstance\...cts\PythonMethod\PythonMethod.py, line 168, in __call__ (Object: rec) (Info: ((), {}, None)) File <string>, line 6, in rec (Object: myfunc) File <string>, line 3, in myfunc NameError: (see above) --- Isn't it allowed to have a recursive function here? - Willem

Python Script and O'Reilly Book
by Michel Pelletier 28 Nov '00

28 Nov '00

Hi folks, We get quite a bit of mail about how the book and Python Scripts don't make sense with each other any more. We're aware of a couple issues: o The Book says "Python Method" and documents the version in CVS o The current release of "Python Methods" does not work with the book examples, you need to check them out of CVS (are there may still be some issues) o "Python Methods" are now "Python Scripts" o The book explains "Methods" in a unified way, this needs to be split up and broken out. We apologize for the inconsistencies. Obviously, these things are going to all be worked out real soon now. We wanted to make a general announcement because we just can't handle all of the questions that come to us directly by mail. We want to warn you though: Python Scripts are alpha, CVS code. Additionaly, the book is "beta" documentation. Neither of these artifacts are finished or released yet, so please always be aware that you need to use them at your own discretion. -Michel

tree traversing & publishing
by Milos Prudek 28 Nov '00

28 Nov '00

I do not quite understand how Zope traverses a tree. I created "ZooExhibit" Z Class within ZooExhibit factory, and "ExhibitProperties" prop.sheet within that class, with an "animal" property. I made association between "Edit" name and propertysheets/ExhibitProperties/manage. I made an instance of the Z Class called "Rabbit" within Zoo folder. But when I access http://Zoo/Rabbit/propertysheets/ExhibitProperties/animal, I get an error "Missing doc string". Perhaps a similar problem: I created "BWE" product/Z Class, and on the Methods tab I created "pop" folder with a default "index_html". I created an instance of that Z Class called "BWE_inst" within a "BWE" folder. I can access "http://BWE/BWE_inst", but when I try "http://BWE/BWE_inst/pop", browser gives me Authorization failed. -- Milos

Factoids for supporting zope
by Spicklemire, Jerry 28 Nov '00

Albert said: > Our client thought that the recent VC money was about 1/2 what would > be needed to make it fly. My argument is that money is leveraged by > the active Zope community so a crux in my logic is how strong this > community is. The "1/2" the capital needed" part is a puzzling assumption. Is your client trying to map some business school model onto DC / Zope? If so, you are absolutely correct to point out that Zope is Open Source, and has excellent support from DC, and the Zope Community, which by the way includes lot's of other folks using Zope in real world enterprises. Most of all, it's very important for your client to understand DC's business model, and the fact that the new VC Capital will be used to scale DC to meet the already explosive demand for Zope based solutions. As a services company, no doubt DC has grown accustomed to meeting paycheck schedules by fulfilling the requirements of an expanding client list. The investment, based on the press release, etc., will be applied to making more of the same happen sooner. This is just my take on the public information, I have no ties to DC, other than as a Zope and Python fan (and hopelessly bedazzled groupie). If your client is sketchy about these details, it may be up to you to help them fill in the blanks. Have they checked out the Zope.org site, specifically Testimonials http://www.zope.org/Resources/Testimonials and Case Studies? http://www.zope.org/Resources/CaseStudies Some of these are old, but there are some pretty good hints there re. what folks have done with, and think about, Zope. Open Source in general can be disorienting at first glance. There are several "pages" out there with interviews where Paul Everitt answers questions about DC's business model, etc. Check these out: http://www.zope.org/Resources/Media http://www.bizjournals.com/washington/stories/1999/05/24/focus4.html and other articles here http://www.troubleshooters.com/tpromag/199906/_digcreate.htm and elsewhere on the Web.
