[SybDA]Connection : how does it work ?
by Tony Moutaux 28 Nov '00

28 Nov '00

Hello, I am running Zope 2.1.6 under Linux/RH6.2 on a PC. The Sybase server is version 11.9.2 on a Solaris station with DNS name "sybstat" on port 2040 (or sybase server name "sybtest") and the database is named "picsou". When I try filling in the form to add a new Sybase DA connection, the result is always: Invalid connection string. I have try with this parameters : 1-database: picsou, password: mypasswd, server: sybstat, user: myuser 2-database: picsou, password: mypasswd, server: sybstat:2040, user: myuser But this give the same answer ... On Linux, I have the libraries, include files and all running client for Sybase and I can run isql from my PC on the Sybase server on the solaris station very well using the parameters of the (2-) set. So the connection to the Sybase server seems to work ... How could I check what happens inside Zope, or am I mistaken for the parameters values ? Thanks for any help. Tony

Is there a way I can get those scripts working from Zope or else is it possible that I upload those file in Zope and make them work from Apache itself ? I am just a beginner of Zope, so intricate details would be appriciated. Thanks, Kini, __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Shopping - Thousands of Stores.

I want to switch to Zope now and found to ways to access PostgreSQL database: PoPy and PyGreSQL. What are the differences and what would you suggest to use in which case. Kind regards Andreas.

ZODB.Transaction uses a TPC protocol: please notice 'tpc_begin()', 'tpc_vote()', 'tpc_abort()', 'tpc_finish()'. This is how ZODB can synchronize, for instance, with Oracle/Sybase commit/rollback. For the nonce, ZODB expects to be doing the driving; playing nice with others XA's is down the road a bit. See Jim's model: http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Developer/Models/ZODB and, in particular: http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Developer/Models/ZODB/ZODB_Architecture_S… for more than you want to know. :) Tres. -- =============================================================== Tres Seaver tseaver(a)digicool.com Digital Creations "Zope Dealers" http://www.zope.org

ZCatalog: How to request boolean NOT searches?
by Doug Morse 28 Nov '00

28 Nov '00

Hi, I have what I'm hoping is a simple question. I've setup a search form against a ZCatalog using field searches and everything works great. In the search form, I have the following code (also works OK): <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('sort_on','date')"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('sort_order','reverse')"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('meta_type','News Item')"> What want to do, and can't seem to figure out, is to call REQUEST.set to set a logical NOT value. For example, I've tried the following for the goal of making the author field NOT EQUAL to the specified value: <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('author','NOT John Smith')"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('author','<> John Smith')"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('author','!= John Smith')"> but none of these work (of course, I'm just guessing at syntax). Can anyone tell me how I SHOULD be setting a logical NOT condition in this example? Thanks so much! Doug Morse morse(a)pobox.com

newbie question: Redirect from Python?
by Paul Winkler 28 Nov '00

28 Nov '00

I want the user to be sent to a particular URL after calling the product's manage_add method. How can I do that? The URL I want is REQUEST['URL3']. I've tried RESPONSE.redirect(REQUEST['URL3']) but that's not it - the RESPONSE doesn't seem to exist here. -- ................. paul winkler .................. slinkP arts: music, sound, illustration, design, etc. web page: http://www.slinkp.com A member of ARMS: http://www.reacharms.com

I hope, you do not need the redirect in your constructor as in the constructor the newly created object is not yet tied into the web site hierarchy via acquisition. If the object, say "self", is already tied in, then you can use "self.REQUEST.RESPONSE.redirect(....)". If you need it in the constructor, then you must either pass in an object that is tied by acquisition or REQUEST or RESPONSE itself, or you must move the call out into the method "manage_afterAdd" (where the object already is tied in).

When I remember right, the Add box is constructed by "filtered_meta_types". Thus, you must give your ZClass a method with this name (the correct name, if I do not remember right), that returns the correct list. Dieter
