Hosting?
by Paul Winkler 27 Oct '00

27 Oct '00

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a commercial Zope hosting service for me. I've looked at the resources page on zope.org, and I have a couple feelers out, but I'd like to ask the community for recommendations as well. Requirements: I need a system that can handle a potentially very heavy load, though at first it will be quite small - we're a startup and have no customers yet. Location: We're in the northeast USA and most of our users will probably be in the US as well, so I'd prefer a service in North America. Zope: 2.2 at least, and access to install new products and external methods. I'm currently on codeit.com, but they have zope 2.1 and I need zope >= 2.2 so I can use my custom product derived from PTK 0.9. Storage: We're doing things with digital images - *big* ones - so we need to start at about 100 MB and will need to grow; we'll be storing a *lot* of data for our users. Eventually (probably not until later in 2001) we'll need MUCH more - possibly up to 1 GB eventually. (Beyond that point we will probably just rent a server at rackspace.com or somewhere but first we need to be able to develop a big enough customer base to pay for it.) Data transfer: Several times greater than storage. Users will upload large files which we will then download to our local network, so that's at least 2x our storage needs, plus there's the transfer involved in just using the site. Pricing: since our storage requirements will be continually growing, I'd like a payment plan that enables us to pay for the storage we need and add more as needed. -- ................. paul winkler .................. slinkP arts: music, sound, illustration, design, etc. web page: http://www.slinkp.com A member of ARMS: http://www.reacharms.com

Re: [Zope] siteaccess + resolve_url problem

Opps! It was my problem. The problem was: You have www.mysite.com "siteaccesing" www.mysite.com/site1. You have the following directory: /site1/myfolder If you type in a browser www.mysite.com/myfolder there is no problem because siteaccess handles the location of myfolder. But you cannot use: REQUEST.resolve_url('http://www.mysite.com/myfolder'). You must use: REQUEST.resolve_url('http://www.mysite.com/site1/myfolder'). Otherwise you will get a resource not found.

I saw a solution(patch) for ZCatalog, but here I'm not using ZCatalog, its a Zope resolve_url call. Is there a solution?

Zope/PIL collision - what to do?
by Anselm Lingnau 26 Oct '00

26 Oct '00

I'm trying to use the Python Imaging Library in an external Python method to modify some images dynamically. However, when I try to load an image: import Image # from PIL - refers to PIL ImageFile module image = Image.open("foo.png") the method crashes because the Image module sees the Zope »ImageFile« module instead of the one from PIL. The Zope module, of course, does something completely different from the other one. This is on Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 with Zope 2.2.2 (taken from the »unstable« distribution and re-built -- the Zope in Debian 2.2 is older) and the PIL 1.0.1 from the distribution. How do I get around this?

can I turn off <!--# syntax?
by Noah 26 Oct '00

26 Oct '00

I'm working on a web site that uses Apache server side includes. This is causing Zope to freak out because the SSI syntax is identical to the alternate (older) Zope dtml syntax.  I thought of putting <dtml-comment> around them all, but I am certain that my client would object. Yours, Noah Spurrier

Displaying non-start values as the first batch seen in a batch processing dtml-in processing dtml-in
by Chris Beaumont 26 Oct '00

26 Oct '00

Hello, I'm using dtml-in to display a long list of events taken from a SQL table, as part of a calendar, using batch processing, (basically the example from the DTML reference adapted to use direct traversal to fetch the table contents) I want my calendar to be basically a timeline, with the current date as the default starting point. The idea is that someone can go back in time as well as forward. (links for past events as well as future) So, basically, I'm looking for a not-too-convoluted (i.e. decent performance) way to have the 'default' screen on entry be the batch that contains the item whose datetime value is the next one occurring after the current time. Dtml-in doesn't seem to have a straightforward way to do this, unless I'm overlooking something obvious. Does a solution to this occur to anyone? Thank you. Chris Beaumont cbeaumon(a)msri.org

which python gets used ... ?
by Jonathan Cheyne 26 Oct '00

26 Oct '00

Hi, just a quickie idiot question .. Does zope use any of the python on my RH6.2 box or does it use its own copy exclusively? I was trying to install the python xml libraries to try our the hyperdom product. I installed an rpm succesfully before remembering that zope has its own python. I struggled to install a tgz version though and it struck me that I was probably not being as efficient as I could be ... So the question is: can I run zope using the stock RH6.2 distributions' own copy of python? cheers Jonathan
