Looking for different style
by cuiod-tec Jens Gelhaar 15 Aug '00

15 Aug '00

I need a better way to render a DTMLDocument and store the result in variable than <dtml-let variable="_['documentname']"> but I do not like the style, it looks clumsy. Is there an another way? I would think something like documentname(...), but the acquisition does not work. Thanks Jens

Removing tracebacks from error message
by David Trudgett 15 Aug '00

15 Aug '00

I thought I solved this problem a while ago, but if so I can't remember how. I have a custom error page in Zope (2.1.6), but Zope wants to put the traceback information into an HTML comment at the foot of the page (which I don't want to have there). I set BOBO_DEBUG_MODE=0 and exported it in the "start" script, and also removed the "-D" from the command line that launches Z2.py. I thought that was all there was to it, but there must be something else that I've forgotten. Any ideas? Thanks. David Trudgett

restrict -tree tag global navigation- to subfolders
by Marcus Schopen 14 Aug '00

14 Aug '00

Hi, I found this to create tree tag global navigation: http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope/1999-February/002164.html Is it possible (and how) to change the DTML method SideBar to list only subfolders of the directory where SiteBar itself has been created? Background: Under the Zope root-folder our homepage has subfolders of different people, eg. www.jura.uni-bielefeld.de/web_for_Prof_A www.jura.uni-bielefeld.de/web_for_Prof_B .... Now I would like to have an automatic Navigation like the above global navigation, but one for each web_for_Prof_X and only with the content of this subfolder. Thank you for helping Marcus ______________________________________ (0> Marcus Schopen //\ Bielefeld, Germany V_/_ ______________________________________

RE: [Zope] Requested Zope feature
by Seb Bacon 14 Aug '00

yup, this is how i work too. how about adding some javascript to the manage_* methods that reload the related window (if it's open) whenever the source changes, too? a problem with this might be ending up with a mass of windows all over your desktop, which is invariably horrible. otoh, there's (almost) no js in the management interface at the moment, and i generally think this is a good thing. i hate js. i presume this was a design decision from the start? however, if this was to guarantee browser interoperability, why are there lots of frames everywhere? and there is some js beginning to creep in now (e.g. help screens). however, this functionality would not replace any existing interface bits so perhaps it's not a bad thing. and although i hate js it can be a very useful piece of evil. a dynamic tree on the left instead of a yuk frame that hardly ever reloads would be a nice thing too. just thinking aloud. seb. > -----Original Message----- > From: zope-admin(a)zope.org [mailto:zope-admin@zope.org]On Behalf Of J. > Atwood > Sent: 09 August 2000 16:16 > To: zope(a)zope.org > Subject: [Zope] Requested Zope feature > > > A lot of the time I end up going into a > document/folder/method just so I can > click on the 'view' tab popping up a new window so I can see > it (option > click / right click). > > It would be very nice if DC could add a icon (or take over > the existing > icon) to pop a new window with the object ( a target="top" > href="object" ) > so you could view the object without having to edit it.

UserLDAP and DTML
by Eric Shuman 14 Aug '00

14 Aug '00

I have just installed the recent product betas of ZopeLDAP and UserLDAP. Everything seems to be working except for one problem. DTML statements do not seem to be recognized by the LDAP queries. The "ldapUserQuery" under the properties of the "acl_users" folder created by the addition of a "User LDAP" object is the key offender. In this query there is this statement: uid= The parameter "name" is passed to the query. If run here are the results: --------------------- no results Filter used: uid= ---------------------- If I hard code the query to use a specific uid then everything words fine. Has anyone else run into this issue? Any ideas on what may be the problem? Are there any specific permissions that need to be set? Thanks for the help, Eric Shuman ~Eric

Workaround: Zope 2.1.6: "Invalid Header" Error
by Dieter Maurer 14 Aug '00

14 Aug '00

Me and lots of collegues have been plagued by occasional "Invalid Header" Zope errors. The analysis revealed: Zope tries to be CGI compliant: A CGI reponse can be preceeded by a sequence of HTTP headers separated by a blank line from the response body. Zope 2.1.6 (and before) uses a regular expression to determine whether or not such a header is present and a different regular expression to analyse each successive header. The first regular expression is buggy: leading whitespace can convince it that there is a header although it is not. The second regular expression then fails to parse this "header" and the "Invalid Header" exception is raised. The code has been greatly improved in Zope 2.2. For Zope 2.1.x, there is an easy workaround for the problem. Start the DTML with an empty line. This lets the first regular expression recognize an empty HTTP header, the second regular expression is not called. Dieter

on ZCatalog
by tav 14 Aug '00

14 Aug '00

since ZCatalog refuses to work with SiteRoot (SiteAccess), i have thought of implementing a temporary solution of making a dtml method which: - deletes the SiteRoot object - traverses the site for ZWiki pages to add to the ZCatalog - adds the SiteRoot object back again i am lost as to the dtml for getting ZCatalog to find and update all the ZWiki pages... :/ also, can someone advise me on how often i should call this method... so as to not cause too much strain on the machine many thanks in advance -- best regards, tav http://plexnews.com

Hi If I try to save a dtml method in emacs which has errors, I get: 426 Error creating file. Is there any way of seeing more information about the error, like what the web interface provides? -- Rob Murray

Re: Re: permissions and ODBC
by cuiod-tec Jens Gelhaar 14 Aug '00

14 Aug '00

Hi Michel, I solved this, but I am not completely sure why. It has something to do with the new 2.2.0 feature of Trojan horses preventing I think (which I learned after hours of searching around). The final problem was the owner-settings. Lets assume you have the following structure root root_acl_users "rootmanager" subfolder "newrole" subfolder_acl_users "subfoldermanager" subsubfolder When you define a user "rootmanager" under root_acl_users and you define a new role "newrole" under subfolder, than you can not give the rootmanager the "newrole" because it is not defined on that level, you can not see it. That was my problem. The subsubfolder was owned by rootmanager. And the right to access the subsubfolder and it's objects was limited to "newrole" and "manager"-role. Everything looks fine, but it does not work. You have to define a new "subfoldermanager" in your subfolder_acl_users and give him the "manager" role. Than you have to set the Ownership of all your objects to "subfoldermanager". May be I missed something, but now everything works. I hope you know what I mean, otherwise let me know. Jens

Xron not seeming to work
by Bill Anderson 14 Aug '00

14 Aug '00

Ok, after downloading the new Xron (0-0-9), I seem to have a problem. This code: ===== <dtml-with "PARENTS[-1].manage_addProduct['DinerItems']"> <dtml-call "DailyOrder_add(_.None, _)"> </dtml-with> <dtml-with "PARENTS[-1]"><dtml-sendmail mailhost=MailHost> To: Portal Admin <anderson(a)anderson.boi.hp.com> From: Portal Admin <anderson(a)anderson.boi.hp.com>> Reply-To: Portal Admin <anderson(a)anderson.boi.hp.com> Subject: REMINDER: Take out the garbage tonight! Daily order Created </dtml-sendmail></dtml-with "PARENTS[-1]"> ===== works when I hit 'trigger', and reschedules itsself for the next day. It does not, however, work at the specified time. No mail is sent, and the adding of the product does not occur. :( Any ideas? -- Bill Anderson (ARC) Unix/Linux System Administrator HPSO Engineering Productivity Team Thursday, July 13, 2000 Random Quote: A bug in the hand is better than one as yet undetected.
