RE: [Zope] PCGI still not functional

bill, i saw the same symptoms this weekend when i helped a good friend set up a zope box to serve some of his domains from. his machine runs RH 6.1. what did it for me was to copy Zope.cgi from apache's cgi-bin directory back into the root of the affected zope install, he has two instances running. after doing that the problems went away. i double-checked the file to see if it points to the wrong places, but everything in there seemed OK otherwise. jens > -----Original Message----- > From: ucntcme(a)zope.org [mailto:ucntcme@zope.org]On Behalf Of Bill > Anderson > Sent: Tuesday, July 25, 2000 01:40 > To: zope(a)zope.org > Subject: [Zope] PCGI still not functional > > > > OK, it isn't just me, I've gotten email from others having > this problem; unfortunately, I > have had to tell them I still have it. > > I have tried using older pcgi code, I have tried the > PCGI_FDS_CLOSE=0 variable, and still, > nothing seems to work right.

Using MySQL with ODBC causes re-authentification of Zope on WIN2000
by Richard S Herrington 25 Jul '00

25 Jul '00

Here is a perplexing problem I am experiencing. First, I was able to compile the MySQL database adapter (MySQLdb) for WIN2000 and connect successfully to a database I set up on Windows. I set up a ZSQL method to return rows from the database. Then I set up a DTML method to iterate over the rows and fill a html page using "dtml-in" to receive records from the ZSQL method: ...snip...snip... <dtml-in sqlQuery> <dtml-var last-name> <dtml-var first-name> </dtml-in> ...snip...snip.... This worked fine. Next, I was able to connect with a MicroSoft Access database using an ODBC method. Then I did the same as before. Create a ZSQL method (e.g. sqlQuery), then iterate over these rows with a "dtml-in" tag, filling an html page. Now here's my problem. When I set up a MySQL ODBC connection. The ZSQL method by itself returns rows from the database just fine. However when I access the index_html page that contains the "dtml-in" tags.....it causes a prompt to reauthenticate to Zope (username and password). No known username and password will work. I set all my MySQL permissions properly as far as I know. I've scoured the archvies but have found nothing. I need some leads as to what to try. Thanks in advance.

Interbase 6.0 Open Source Release
by Jeff K. Hoffman 25 Jul '00

25 Jul '00

Hello, I just wanted to let everyone know that Interbase 6.0 has just been released as Open Source. Check out: http://www.borland.com/interbase/index.html If you need a high-quality, enterprise class RDBMS for Zope I suggest you download both Interbase 6.0 and our Zope DA, gvibDA. It is a truly nice setup. Let us know if you find any bugs, or if there are some new features you'd like to see added. We expect to make a 1.0 release of our DA next week, once we've had a chance to test against 6.0 final. Back to our regular programming, --Jeff --- Jeff K.

App isolation
by Jacques Exelrud 25 Jul '00

25 Jul '00

Not sure if this list is the best place to put such question but here it is... I need to develop what would be a product if only Zope was the target. As it´s not I was thinking what could I do to not need to build such app twice: I came to 2 options both involving building a server of some kind and using Python to connect to this server. 1st Build the app as a COM server (the target OS is Windows) and using Python support build an interface to this COM server as a Zope product 2nd Build the app as a XMLRPC server and using Python support build an interface to this XMLRPC server The second options is better because I´m not attached to any platform but, as I said, that´s not an issue right now. Any sugestions on any of those or a 3rd option ? Thanks in advance, Jacques

ZClasses to RDBMS
by Satheesh Babu 25 Jul '00

25 Jul '00

Hi, Is there any recommended way to get data from ZClass instances to a corresponding RDBMS (Oracle 8i specifically) table? What I could think of as options are: (I've'nt tried out any!) 1. In manage_add for my Zclass call the corresponding ZSQL insert method - Can this be done? - What can be done for updates? 2. Create masking DTML methods to create Zclass instances dynamically. Call ZSQL methods alongside as well. 3. Do periodic downloads of ZClass instances - say XML format - and batch upload to database. Why I need this? 1. I need to make a RDBMS driven system for managing content. I don't want to use Zope's ZODB for storing important content, because of these reasons: 1. It can quickly grow up to 2GB and much more 2. It needs to store and SEARCH through binary documents (Oracle can do this easily) 3. The way site is to be build from DBMS contents has to be / can be different - ASP, PHP or Java Even a 100% static site might be a requirement. 2. I've tried with ZODB3 with data upto 500MB and it is kind of shaky (was on an NT4 server. don't ask me, if it was my decision, I would've picked up linux!). H/W: Compaq dual PIII 500MHz server with NT4, SP5 (or 6, I don't remember. The latest one). 512MB RAM and 1GB Virtual memory. With RDBMS, we've DBA's and good SQL programmers, so data recovery is much more easier. Also, I really don't need much of versioning or undo capabilities. It also brings up another solution, make an Oracle storage along the lines of Interbase storage, hook up ZCatalog to Oracle's interMedia search. Two problems - I'm little tight on time, and DCOracle's support for BLOBs are not yet tried out. I plan to start on this soon anyway. So, any suggestion for this would be greatly appreciated. Note to DC: I love Zope and I would say it is anyday better than these Java appservers, to code, to maintain and to train people. But, lack of any industry strength RDBMS storage is really a big problem in selling to suits. vsbabu(a)csoft.net http://vsbabu.csoft.net

frustrating security problem
by joel grimes 25 Jul '00

25 Jul '00

I imagine this topic has been thoroughly gone over, but I didn't catch it so I'm pulling my hair out. I'm using Zope 2.2 (upgraded yesterday) on a Win98 box. I have a ZSQL Method that allows me to view data from an Access database. But when I try to create a Search Interface for that ZSQL Method, I'm asked for a login and password before I can view it and NONE of my logins work. The interface IS created and I can edit it, I just can't view it. I only have 2 users. The superuser and the one that created the ZSQL Method AND Search Interface.
