Python and Zope Question
by Scott Burton 01 Jun '00

01 Jun '00

Major newbie here. I am wanting to create a python method that iterates over items in a folder object in Zope. I am struggling with how to access objects in the ZODB in python. Here's the script in the simplest form. for x in folderObject : return x I am going to do things to the items once I have access to them, I just can't figure out how to reference ZODB objects in Python. I have done searches on the zope site and looked through the zdp but could not find anything. I am calling the method from a <DTML-var pythonMethodName> with no args. My assumption is that since this is a Python Method, it has access to the ODB structure without having to pass it anything. Am I wrong here? Thanks, Scott B.

I had similar problems some time ago (which have not been entirely resolved -- I'm still trying to tie them down -- but now seem to be less frequent), which seemed to be related to particular page accesses. Are you able to identify from your logs any pages/methods that have repeatedly been called prior to Zope going down? See the Wiki at: http://www.zope.org/Members/tseaver/Projects/HighlyAvailableZope/TwistingInT heWindProblems and take a look at DiagnosingHangProblems for some suggestions. Perhaps you could post the details of your own situation there as well? hth, -- Marcus

RE: [Zope] ODBC connection to Oracle
by Theodore Patrick 01 Jun '00

We have had mixed results depending on the ODBC driver you use to make your DSN. Here is what I found. 1. Microsofts ODBC Driver for ORACLE on NT4.0, NT2000 -CREATE DSN -OK -ZOPE ZODBC -OK -ZSQL METHODS -OK 2. ORACLE ODBC DRIVER on NT 4.0, Especially NT2000 -CREATE DSN -OK -ZOPE ZODBC CONNECTION -OK Visually! On First Query it will break. -ZSQL METHODS -Broken When in doubt use the MICROSOFT DRIVER for ODBC! That is our rule. You will also find that this same problem exists in using ORACLE drivers when viewing databases via ACCESS. It will typically crash Access and potentially more. Theodore E.

Zope on Windows NT
by Luis Cortes 01 Jun '00

Hello, Does anybody know how to change the Port that Zope uses on Windows NT when it is installed as a Service??? I know how to change it when it is installed as standalone - but that doesn't work when I run it as a service. Thanks for your help, Luis.

How do I detect in DTML when I'm in the management interface?
by Jason Byron 01 Jun '00

01 Jun '00

I have a ZClass that I would like to be able to create using the management interface and in DTML from the users end with the same DTML script. I believe I need something like this to get it to work: (if in management interface) <dtml-call "create_my_zclass(_.None, _)"> (else) <dtml-with "manage_addProduct['my_zclass']"> <dtml-call "create_my_zclass(_.None, _, NoRedir=1)"> </dtml-with> and create_my_zclass has this code in it: <dtml-with "my_zclass.createInObjectManager(REQUEST['id'], REQUEST)"> <dtml-call "propertysheets.my_zclass_info.manage_editProperties(REQUEST)"> </dtml-with> ... How do I create the first if else? Is there a better/easier way of doing this? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send instant messages & get email alerts with Yahoo!

<dtml-tree> <div> issue from this morning.
by Patrick Keane 01 Jun '00

01 Jun '00

The problem is the order. Netscape apparently likes to see URLS like http://www.my.com/this.html#foo?var=data not http://www.my.com/this.html?var=data#foo It chokes on the first, and is happy with the 2nd. IE is happy with either. Any chance this can be checked in as a revision to the tree code to be tested and confirmed? PS - Which is the standard format of the two (as per ww3 or whatnot?) pk

Re: [Zope] something missing in my Oracle setup?
by Justin Sheehy 01 Jun '00

01 Jun '00

I wanted to thank Jens and Anthony for the pointers. I ended up doing the full server install. The only other thing required was to put $ORACLE_HOME/lib in my ld.so.conf and run ldconfig. Things seem to work fine now, though I haven't really hammered on DCOracle yet. Thanks again, -Justin

(One of the last things i did at my prior job, at CNRI, was to resurrect and revitalize the prototype Mailman, for use as the maillist manager on python.org.) I moved on to other things, and the MMRoster product may be way out of date - i don't even know if the mailman interfaces have changed from underneath, and i *know* that the zope ones have - but the product still may offer some useful clues about one way to hook up with mailman. I just uploaded a tarball of it to my members folder - see http://www.zope.org/Members/klm/MailmanStuff/MMRoster.tar.gz (I know ethan is interested in this topic, and barry warsaw, mailman's current maintainer and my old colleague/buddy, has also expressed interest, so i'm cc'ing them.) All this said, i'm spread too thin at the moment to be able to *do* much more than watch, maybe chime in, if stuff happens... Ken Manheimer klm(a)digicool.com
