zzLocale problems

After installing zzLocale I get an "AttributeError" every time I try to add a ZGadfly Connection: ------------------------------------------------------ Traceback (innermost last): File C:\PROGRA~1\WebSite\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 222, in publish_module File C:\PROGRA~1\WebSite\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 187, in publish File C:\PROGRA~1\WebSite\lib\python\Zope\__init__.py, line 221, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: Traversable) File C:\PROGRA~1\WebSite\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 171, in publish File C:\PROGRA~1\WebSite\lib\python\ZPublisher\mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: manage_addZGadflyConnectionForm) File C:\PROGRA~1\WebSite\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 112, in call_object (Object: manage_addZGadflyConnectionForm) File C:\PROGRA~1\WebSite\lib\python\Products\ZGadflyDA\__init__.py, line 131, in manage_addZGadflyConnectionForm (Object: Traversable) File C:\Programme\WebSite\lib\python\Products\zzLocale\zzLocale.py, line 119, in __call__ (Object: addConnectionForm) AttributeError: dft_addConnectionForm ------------------------------------------------------ Right now I don't have the time to go take a deeper look at this (or isn't it that deep?), so I tried to DE-install zzLocale, just for now. Well: Zope(Win2k :-() won't work without it anymore!!! ------------------------------------------------------ 2000-08-31T13:35:20 ERROR(200) ZODB Couldn't load state for '\000\000\000\000\00 0\000\000\006' Traceback (innermost last): File C:\PROGRA~1\WebSite\lib\python\ZODB\Connection.py, line 447, in setstate ImportError: No module named zzLocale.zzLocale Traceback (innermost last): File "C:\Programme\WebSite\z2.py", line 554, in ? exec "import "+MODULE in {} File "<string>", line 1, in ?

Re: [Zope] How to use DocumentTemplate custom formats from Python?

I did as below, which worked. Is that the official way? - I couldn't see any dedicated function to register a format. DT_Var.special_formats['javascript_quote'] = javascript_quote Hamish Lawson ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

"Z2 CONFLICT Competing writes" and synchronization woes
by Sean McGrath 31 Aug '00

31 Aug '00

(Google -- which normally does an absolutely stunning job of directing me to answers to Zope questions -- has drawn a blank on this one:) I have an external method that writes stuff to a file. I want to synchronize access to the file so that multiple callers can be adding stuff to the file without problems. Without any synchronization I get interleaved output most of the time and occasionally an error message like this: "Z2 CONFLICT Competing writes at, /foo" I tried using the threading module and creating a Lock object as a global in the external method. This does not help as each request gets allocated its own Lock object. I tried Rlock got an error message I didn't understand and concluded I don't know what I'm doing:-) Any pointers to the best way to do synchronization of access to the filesystem from external methods? regards, Sean McGrath

Overriding Z Class methods in instances
by Johann Visagie 31 Aug '00

31 Aug '00

This must either be a stupid FAQ, or I'm missing something. It seems you cannot overload the methods of a Z Class in an instance of that class. If you try to, you get a message that the method's id is invalid since it is already in use. If this is really the case, then how can one achieve the necessary separation between presentation and business logic? E.g. if I have a Z Class with an index_html method, all instances of that Z Class will display in exactly the same way. -- Johann

Squishdot/zcatalog question goes unanswered...
by sean＠horse101.com 31 Aug '00

31 Aug '00

I have asked the following question on the zope list, the squishdot site, and the squishdot eGroups site without a single response. Is there something I am leaving out or is it a hard one? Question: I am running Zope 2.1.6 and Squishdot 6 (upgraded from 2->3->5->6). I have created a keyword search of my entire site. I see the Squishdot site listed as a cataloged object, but when I run a keyword search of my site, I get everything but the squishdot site items. Since my last upgrade I have updated the catalog to no avail. Incidentally, I have the zope chat example running also, and it shows every single posting by every user in the catalog objects, but these also don't show in search results (but this may be a design issue for chat). Any help resolving the Squishdot issue would be greatly appreciated. I don't care about chat very much. Thanks in advance! --Sean

Thanks Chris Now, *why* does that work? The function manage_addProduct looks like its for adding new products under the Control_Panel. That isn't what it's for? I don't have to do <dtml-with "manage_addProduct['OFSP']"> to use manage_addUserFolder ? I noticed this in the OFSP stuff. from :lib/python/Products/OFSP/__init__.py line :153 context.registerClass( AccessControl.User.UserFolder, constructors=(AccessControl.User.manage_addUserFolder,), icon='images/UserFolder_icon.gif', legacy=(AccessControl.User.manage_addUserFolder,), ) context.registerBaseClass(AccessControl.User.UserFolder, 'User Folder') context.registerBaseClass(AccessControl.User.User) Could adding something like this to the GUF fix the problem I had and let manage_addGenericUserFolder work by itself?

ALERT: rally to the flag, troops!
by Jean Jordaan 31 Aug '00

31 Aug '00

Hello Zopers This is serious business. As you know, I've been asking questions of various levels of ineptitude during the last few weeks. Meantime I've been building some entry-level ZClasses as part of the insides of Mosaic's Intranet. This culminated in a demo a couple of days ago, when I showed the one CEO and the rest of the communications department what I have been doing. Now it has filtered through that my demo has given our CEO a great deal to think about, and that he does think that a thoroughly collaborative intranet with distributed management authority is the way to go. Unsurprisingly, though, this has sent him straight to a Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server Features Guide, as a possible Solution to All Our Problems (tm). Said CEO obviously has the authority needed to give me the go-ahead to use Zope. Now I need as much input as you are prepared to give on how to turn this into a win-win situation. In keeping with M$'s new way of doing things, Exchange does support the whole slew of interoperability protocols like LDAP, IMAP, POP, HTTP, S/MIME, X.509 v3, etc, etc. It also boasts sophisticated replication facilities for data and users. Surely there are good ways of leveraging Exchange's functionality within Zope? Conversely, where does Exchange fall down in a scenario like this? As hard-nosedly technical as possible please. What does it tie you into? What does it take away, as seen from a Zope perspective? How far do you get into Exchange with Python? Further -- what are all the most considerable Zope products that use Exchange? I know Worldpilot does, and any IMAP client would. But Exchange-specific stuff? Is anyone working on any of this? Zope is great within resource-constrained environments, but we don't have tight monetary or material constraints, so this isn't as much of an issue. -- Jean Jordaan -- technical writer -- Mosaic Software -- Zope 2.1.6 on WinNT and W2K
