JobBoard update properties->script problem
by brocken22＠gmx.de 25 Jul '00

25 Jul '00

Hello, I'm building a JobBoard like Database.Fellows can put in the jobs they have done, the time they need(for scanning or programming) and the budget of the project should be updated depending on the job and the time they needed. Building the instances was no problem but my problem is the budgetupdate. This is the script; Thanks!! -> without the if-statement it's working!! <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('job', job)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('time',time)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('user',_.str(REQUEST['AUTHENTICATED_USER']))"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('title', user +' - '+ TS )"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('value',REQUEST.form['value'])"> <dtml- if "_.str(REQUEST['job']) == _.str('scanning')> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('valueAfter',value - (20*time))"> <else> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('valueAfter',value - (10*time))"> </dtml- if> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('Budget',valueAfter)"> <dtml-with "manage_addProduct['DBank']"> <dtml-call "eingang_DB_add (_.None, _, NoRedir=1)"> </dtml-with> -- Sent through GMX FreeMail - http://www.gmx.net

Re: Sybase in Remote Machine

Hi Holger, Thanks for your help, Anothny Baxter has provided a way to do it and works (and of course, thanks to Anthony too). It was all because the DA of MySQL and Sybase does not work the same. Sybase handles remote databases in their own interfaces file. My fault in not very familiar with Sybase. Regards, Herbert

Hi Herbert, I have no clues regarding sybase, sorry. I am using a MySQL database which *can* run on the same or on a different host. But have you checked if there is a new Sybase DA on zope.org ? Furthermore, have you mailed this to the maintainer ? He/she might be interested in that you want to connect to a remote host. Maybe you will get what you want if you trigger the maintainter ... :-)) Can you switch to a different database ? If so, why not use MySQL or PostgreSQL ? Both are free to use (well MySQL costs a couple of bucks for commercial purposes) and quite well supported. - Holger Am Mon, 24 Jul 2000 schrieb herbert(a)siliconcreation.com: > Hello, > > By using the SybaseDAv2.00b interface to input the database connection > in the database@hostname format, I got this error: Invalid connection > string. > > And I checked the readme of the DA, it says "Ensure that you have > Sybase installed on your machine,.." and "Set the environment variable > ... to the Sybase installation directory on your local machine."

Can not import XML export
by Marcin Kasperski 25 Jul '00

25 Jul '00

[ A few days ago I started working with zope and I am really impressed. But now the first problem... ] I created simple folder containing a few DTML documents and methods, a couple of images and ZCatalog. Then I exported it using XML format. Now I try to import it into another Zope installation and I get an error suggesting some problem with XML tags. Error Type: TypeError Error Value: illegal argument type for built-in operation Traceback (innermost last): File /usr/lib/zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 222, in publish_module File /usr/lib/zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 187, in publish File /usr/lib/zope/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 221, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: ElementWithAttributes) File /usr/lib/zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 171, in publish File /usr/lib/zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: manage_importObject) File /usr/lib/zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 112, in call_object (Object: manage_importObject) File /usr/lib/zope/lib/python/OFS/ObjectManager.py, line 495, in manage_importObject (Object: ElementWithAttributes) File /usr/lib/zope/lib/python/ZODB/ExportImport.py, line 216, in importFile File /usr/lib/zope/lib/python/ZODB/ExportImport.py, line 316, in importXML File /usr/lib/zope/lib/python/Shared/DC/xml/xyap.py, line 57, in unknown_endtag File /usr/lib/zope/lib/python/Shared/DC/xml/ppml.py, line 748, in save_item TypeError: (see above) On both machines I used exactly the same Zope version (2.2.0) and Python version (1.5.2). So: - isn't it a bug? - can I do anything to import at least some parts of this file (say - by editing it manually in some way) - I would really like to import something today (tomorrow I will try usual zope export) Regards -- Marcin.Kasperski | You can even cancel and be left with a working system @softax.com.pl | reflecting investment to date.

RE: [Zope] Zope performance ratios

-----Original Message----- From: andres(a)corrada.com [mailto:andres@corrada.com] Sent: 24. heinäkuuta 2000 20:54 To: zope(a)zope.org Subject: [Zope] Zope performance ratios I'm interested in getting performance statistics for Zope. I'm scouring the mailing lists for previous messages but I would also be interested in anything else people may want to say about it. For example, what is the record for average web hits from a Zope site? Does someone have a feel for useful ratios like: "a Zope page takes, on average, twice as a static page to serve"? I'm not interested in being anal about the numbers, seat of the pants estimates are what I'm looking for. ------------------------------------------------------ Andres Corrada-Emmanuel Email: andres(a)corrada.com ------------------------------------------------------

[Fwd: Re: [Zope-dev] DateTime formatting with strftime: patch]

-------- Original Message -------- Ämne: Re: [Zope-dev] DateTime formatting with strftime: patch Datum: Mon, 24 Jul 2000 16:56:52 +0100 Från: Steve Alexander <steve(a)cat-box.net> Till: zope-dev(a)zope.org Referenser: <397C3F55.8C7D1251(a)cat-box.net> This is now in the Collector, as bug number 1457. http://classic.zope.org:8080/Collector/1457/view Incidentally, http://classic.zope.org:8080/Collector/1409/view is another patch to the same problem. However, that patch doesn't address the root of the problem, which is that DateTime instances are associated with a particular timezone, and users expect all formatting to occur with respect to that particular timezone. The fix in collector #1409 makes all strftime formatting happen in the local timezone of the Zope installation, not the timezone given in the particular DateTime instance being formatted.

"REQUEST" a string object?
by Rob Miller 25 Jul '00

25 Jul '00

Arrggh! I'm getting very frustrated trying to accomplish something that should be easy. I'm stepping through all of the files in a LocalFS directory, and I want to dynamically create a <table> that displays all of the sub-directories of the current directory. I want to inject a "</tr><tr>" every so often, so I need to count the number of directories I've found so far to see whether I need to start a new row or not. I've spent a few hours digging through the list archives, so I know that creating a manually managed counter variable is not a straightforward affair. Here's the code that I have: <table> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('ctr', 0)"> <dtml-in "fileValues(REQUEST.get('spec', _.None))"> <dtml-if "type == 'directory'"> <dtml-if "ctr % num_dir_columns == 0"> <tr> </dtml-if> <a href="<dtml-var URL1>/<dtml-var url>"><dtml-var "id"></a><br> <dtml-if "ctr % num_dir_columns == num_dir_columns - 1"> </tr> </dtml-if> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('ctr', _.int(ctr) + 1)"> </dtml-if> </dtml-in> <dtml-comment> In case we end in the middle of a row... </dtml-comment> <dtml-if "ctr % num_dir_columns != 0"> </tr> </dtml-if> </table> The error I get, running Zope in debug mode, is this: Error Type: AttributeError Error Value: 'string' object has no attribute 'set' This is referring to the <dtml-call> line in the middle of the loop, the one that actually does the incrementing. It thinks that REQUEST is a string, which of course doesn't have a "set" attribute. I've been banging my head on this all day and can't come up with an way to accomplish this trivial task. I don't want to push this into Python; this is simple UI code, not business logic, so it doesn't belong there. Besides, it's absurd to think that I would need to write an external method or some other Python method to do something as simple as this. (It may end up being true, but it's still absurd... ;-) ) Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks for your time, rob

Zope.org has finally hit the 2gb barrier. I have taken it down for the moment, whilst I work out what to do.

LoginManager, User Sources, ...
by Wolfgang Klinger 25 Jul '00

25 Jul '00

Hi! I searched the archives and found some entries, all concerning the same problem ... I read this: "LoginManager currently comes with a default User Source called Generic User Source (GUS), that is a GUF-like roll-your-own system. It uses GUF-compatible methods (userExists, userRoles, etc), so converting any GUF-using site to a LM site ..... " and wondered where this GUS is hidden and how I actually add users ?? (I'm still a newbie and want to know how it works!) Can somebody please help? TIA Wolfgang
