Is this behavior correct??? I really doubt it, but if it is correct can someone explain it to me??? regards, Luis. -- ====================================================== Luis Cortes Pollak EPD (915) 621-6113 ======================================================

ZSQL Method (input argument)
by Gergely Gulis 06 Apr '00

06 Apr '00

Hi, I am new at Zope. So I have difficulties while i am building a website. The problem: I use the Zope's own SQL database. I'd like to insert datas via Web into it. I wanna give some information with checkboxes, but as far as i know, if i do not select a checkbox, the HHTP request do not contain the value of the variable belongs to that checkbox. When I am defining the SQL insert command (as a query), I have to give the input arguments. So if i do not check a checkbox, the ZSQL Method screams for it. 1. At first i tried to define the table with default values, Error message No 1. 2. Then I tried to define the variables belonging the checkboxes in the folder as a propertiy with unchecked value, Error Message No. 2. I have no more idea. How can I solve this problem? Thanks in advance, Gergo

Starting Zope (NT Service) with chosen parameters
by Hugo Ramos 06 Apr '00

06 Apr '00

Yellow, I would like to have the same facility to start Zope in an NT box (as a service) as I have in Linux!!! Is that too much to ask? I think not! So anyone started Zope with '-w 80' or another special parameter in an NT box (AGAIN: Zope is an NT Service)?????? After i get this done (with your VERY needed help) I promise to write a how-to on this... thanks --- Hugo Ramos - hramos(a)ruido-visual.pt Ruido Visual - Telecomunicacoes Interactivas, Lda

Does GUF work with 2.1.6?
by Tony McDonald 06 Apr '00

06 Apr '00

Hi all, Can someone confirm that GenericUserFolder 1.2.0 works with Zope 2.1.6? - I'm looking very closely at GUF as UserDB 1.3. doesn't work fully with 2.1.6 and I really need SQL authentication. I've just installed a clean 2.1.3 and updated to 2.1.6 using the mini-installer and then installed GUF 1.2.0. I've followed the instructions at http://www.zope.org/Members/hippy/GUF_SQL_crypt_1_1 which certainly help in the setting up process, as well as reading the README in the GUF distn. User 'jorge' has roles of Anonymous Manager defaultrole specialrole I've tried using cookie and standard authentication, and have set an index_html doc in the same folder as the acl_users folder to have no perms. for 'Anonymous' and view for 'Manager'. I always get a basic authentication dialog pop up and 'jorge', 'secret' is not recognised. It looks a very interesting package, but at the moment, I'm stumped. any advice would be appreciated. tone ------ Dr Tony McDonald, FMCC, Networked Learning Environments Project http://nle.ncl.ac.uk/ The Medical School, Newcastle University Tel: +44 191 222 5888 Fingerprint: 3450 876D FA41 B926 D3DD F8C3 F2D0 C3B9 8B38 18A2

Socket Problems

I have kind of a stupid question about sockets. When starting zope (using z2.py -D) I get: ------ 2000-03-25T18:56:54 PROBLEM(100) ZServer Computing default hostname ------ 2000-03-25T18:56:54 INFO(0) ZServer Medusa (V1.13) started at Sat Mar 25 10:56:54 2000 Hostname: milo Port:8080 ------ 2000-03-25T18:56:54 INFO(0) ZServer FTP server started at Sat Mar 25 10:56:54 2000 Authorizer:None Hostname: milo Port: 8021 ------ 2000-03-25T18:56:54 INFO(0) ZServer PCGI Server started at Sat Mar 25 10:56:54 2000 Unix socket: /usr/local/src/Zope-2.1.4-src/var/pcgi.soc Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/local/src/Zope-2.1.4-src/z2.py", line 551, in ? port=MONITOR_PORT) File "/usr/local/src/Zope-2.1.4-src/ZServer/medusa/monitor.py", line 264, in __init__ monitor_server.__init__ (self, hostname, port) File "/usr/local/src/Zope-2.1.4-src/ZServer/medusa/monitor.py", line 168, in __init__ self.bind ((hostname, port)) File "/usr/local/src/Zope-2.1.4-src/ZServer/medusa/asyncore.py", line 205, in bind return self.socket.bind (addr) socket.error: (49, "Can't assign requested address") Using z2.py -D -m '' (disabling the monitor), everything works fine.

I wasn't sure if they had put a nice interface on your product or rolled their own. Now I think it is a ZClass that isn't publicly available. Sure would be nice if it was ;-) -Curt Yanko > -----Original Message----- > From: Shalabh Chaturvedi [SMTP:shalabh@pspl.co.in] > Sent: Thursday, April 06, 2000 9:20 AM > To: Yanko, Curtis (GSP); zope(a)zope.org > Subject: Re: [Zope] PTK Issue Tracker > > Yanko, Curtis (GSP) wrote: > > Is that tracker the iTracker product or something new? > > The PTK tracker and the iTrack Issue Tracker are two completely different > products. > > The iTrack product is newer among the two and lags behind in features. > > Cheers, > Shalabh > > > -Curt Yanko > >

Re: [Zope] Re: Newbie method rendering question -- Squishdot
by Chris Withers 06 Apr '00

06 Apr '00

Doh! Didn't see that bit... Try: <dtml-with squish> <dtml-var index_html> </dtml-with> It might work, after that I'm out of ideas :( Chris PS: I see you tried the above with <dtml-var "index_html()">, so it probably won't work. My advice would be to aim to move away from Squishdot unless it does what you want. I think a lot of these problems are 'cos it's old code and Butch Landingin doesn't seem to have much time to maintain it. You could try emailing him at squishdot(a)yahoo.com.

dtml-calendar efficiency?
by Michael Ciavarella 06 Apr '00

06 Apr '00

Hi all, I've been bouncing around the idea of adding an optional tag parameter 'batchMethod' to the <dtml-calendar> tag. This parameter would specify a method that could be used to pre-fetch data in the date range being rendered. Rather than reinventing the wheel, is there another (ie already exists) way to efficiently back the <dtml-calendar> tag with a ZSQL method? With the standard "usage", the tag issues one call to the method (i.e. one query) for each date on the presented calendar. Thanks in advance mike
