SQLProperties - missing files?
by mywin＠iname.com 30 May '00

30 May '00

Does anyone have SQLProperties working? The product on Zope.org seems to be missing the 'dbspecific' directory of SQL files. If anyone can send me a sample of what those files should look like I would appreciate it. This product seems like it would help in my quest to reduce the size of my "data.fs" database. Shouldn't it? Also is there any way to use the Zope Catalog with SQL data? It would be great to have full text searching on my SQL data. Thanks, -Ben

Uploading to Zclass help
by Bart Holthuijsen 30 May '00

Hi Fellow Zopiasts! I'm working on a project to put documentation in Zope. I've come to the point of storing the files that are generated earlier in the process. The results up until now: - I made a Form to select an XML and XSL file - These are processed by a XSLT processor - HTML files are generated - The HTML files are parsed to extract file references. - The HTML files are edited to point to the CSS in the Zope way - The CSS is copied to a new file with extra header information This is all done in an external method and the result is a list of files that I want to upload. This is where you come in :) What is the best way to upload and store these files? I want to be able to search in there files, so I want to make a Catalog - aware object. Any pointers? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Bart Holthuijsen. ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com

TimeSheet product?
by Jean Jordaan 30 May '00

30 May '00

Hi Zopers I'm looking for something to track the time I spend on different jobs. Has anyone written anything like this? I tried searching through the products, but found only issue trackers. My main criterion is simplicity of use .. I've never managed to use a timesheet continuously, if it's too much trouble to keep it up to date. -- jean(a)mosaicsoftware.com

Re: [Zope] Use of lambda expression in DTML

Until PythonMethods are back in the distribution, you can't stop people from using DTML for this stuff - the only alternative is to give everyone who ever needs to do something more than simple HTML access to the file system. I can't see that happening on zope.org, or many other sites. I agree whole-heartedly that DTML's expr syntax is nightmarish and needs to be deprecated - but right now there's nothing to replace it with. As far as the issue at hand - whether lambda/map/reduce/filter should be allowed - the simplest way to enable them for PythonMethods also enables them for dtml-expr.

ZOracleDA woes - cannot connect
by Michal Bukovjan 30 May '00

30 May '00

Please help!!! I am trying to connect to Oracle server. Running Zope 2.1.4, ZServer alone (for now), Debian frozen(potato). I have stable ZOracleDA 2.1.0. After a lot of work, I succeeded to compile the DCOracle package, and I am able to connect with the Python script DCOracle_test.py, which is included. I am only able to connect when I am a user 'oracle'. But when I try to connect from Zope, the connection never happens,and Zope returns "Document contained no data. Contact your network administrator". Sometimes, Zope dies. I am really desperate by now, as I try to make connection for three days now. I searched all FAQs on Zope site, nothing found. Any idea what I am doing wrong? Thanks, Michal Bukovjan

I'm not sure what options you'll need to specify to get that particular directory installed. (if someone was to destroy the oracle installer and replace it with something that worked, I think a lot of people would be very very happy.) On a related note - make sure you link with libclntsh, not libnjni8 - at least one version of a Setup file for DCOracle specified njni8. As far as we can tell, libnjni8 is not properly threadsafe on solaris/ sparc. Anthony

PROPOSAL: Online chat with Jim and Paul
by Paul Everitt 30 May '00

30 May '00

Howdy folks. It's clear that we were unclear in communicating the Perl For Zope announcement. What this needs is a little...clarity! I propose an IRC chat on Wednesday with Jim Fulton and me. The topic will be "What Are Methods and How Does Perl Fit In?" I'll announce time and location later, when someone coaches me on just how you do these damn things on IRC. :^) Why are we doing this? First, I think it's crucial that we at Digital Creations work harder to engage the community in the thinking of Zope. (In fact, this is the number one goal of Brian Lloyd, Zope Product Manager). And the great debate over the announcement makes this a perfect time. Second, I'm hoping that this can become a regular event. The Mozilla crowd has done this, with good success I believe. I'm trying to follow their pattern (one hour, logs posted afterwards). Thoughts? --Paul Paul Everitt Digital Creations paul(a)digicool.com 540.371.6909 ----------------------------------------- The Open Source Zope application server http://www.zope.org/ -----------------------------------------

something missing in my Oracle setup?
by Justin Sheehy 30 May '00

30 May '00

Hello, I am trying to build the DCOracle module and having trouble right off the bat. I have tried both 1.3.0 and 1.3.1 b1 with the same results. The file src/oci_8.c does an #include "oci.h", but I don't seem to have a file named oci.h in my oracle install: $ find $ORACLE_HOME -name '*.h' /opt/orahome1/network/public/tnsapi.h /opt/orahome1/network/public/nzerror.h /opt/orahome1/network/public/nzt.h /opt/orahome1/otrace/public/epc.h /opt/orahome1/plsql/public/ociextp.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sql2oci.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sqlucs2.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/oraca.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sqlapr.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sqlca.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sqlcpr.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sqlda.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sqlkpr.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/a.out.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/limits.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/bits/mathcalls.h /opt/orahome1/precomp/public/sys/ipc.h My Oracle install is the 'Programmer' distribution from Oracle 8.1.5. Do I need the full install, not just the Programmer install, or am I missing something else? I tried using the Setup file for Oracle 8i on Linux that was sent to this list by Laurent Chane-Chuen-Kee, but that does not have any effect on the problem. Thanks, -Justin Sheehy
