SybaseDAv2 speed slow?
by Hung Jung Lu 03 Apr '00

03 Apr '00

Hi, My SybaseDAv2 connection seems awfully slow. Does anyone else have the same problem? A SQL request now takes about 0.3 seconds to complete... this is especially strange given that the Sybase database is on the same machine as Zope. I am using Linux. Is there any trick to speed up the database connection? I suspect the slow speed is due to poor tcp/ip connection... (despite that it is within the same machine!) regards, Hung Jung ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com

RE: [Zope] object ID
by Daniel.Weber＠SEMATECH.Org 03 Apr '00

Alright, the hint about acquisition through methods has presented a solution, though I'm still confused about it. The original link (broken) <FORM HREF="Edit_proc"> (Edit_proc in root of tree) URL stack showed that this procedure was being called from the sub-folder and not from the document. When I modifed the form address to: <FORM HREF="/tree-root_folder/Edit_proc"> This changed the title of the tree_root_folder. Well, i was on to something then. I just made sure the document was the acquiring party: <FORM ACTION="<dtml-var URL>/Edit_proc"> and that worked. I guess the lesson learned is not to use acquisition unless you make certain you know what is acquiring what.... Thanks for the help Tres....

Simple form Problem
by Baker, Dennis (sjmr) 03 Apr '00

03 Apr '00

I am trying to build a form which has a dropdown at the top, and a bunch of buttons below with different functions which to do with the list item. My problem is I can't figure out which button was pressed. I know you set a value for the button, but how do you interpret those values?

layout: BaseFolder |Subfolder1 Doc1 |subfolder1_1 Doc2 |Subfolder_2 Doc3 I'm using dtml-tree to render this view in frame. The application is a error recovery set of pages, where the first sub-folder is an area, second level is a tool, and third is sub-system. Since all the pages are the same except for the recovery procedure, I stored the procedure in a property of the dtml-document. (there's probably a better way of doing it, but I didn't know how to use a tree with anything but objects) The tree is formed from objects('dtml-document', 'folder'). All the code is stored in dtml-methods in the root folder of the tree, and hence accessible to all areas. The dtml-documents several folders deep need to be edited by others. Since they don't know zope,html and barely Word, I have a method which displays a textarea control and lets them type in the recovery procedures. This procedure is then displayed inside a <PRE> tag. No coding required.... each page also has an edit link. The link is to a method in the top level of the tree. The first dtml-method displays a form to modify the properties. it then calls another method, located in the same top-level folder to actually make the changes. If I simply use <dtml-call "Manage_changeProperties" from the second method, the properties of the first containing folder are modified instead of the document (even though the properties aren't defined there, go figure). So, the call stack is: BaseFolder <-1/2 |Subfolder1 | <-- properties changed here. Doc1 ------- |subfolder1_1 Doc2 |Subfolder_2 Doc3 Original Document -> method 1 -> method 2 (which changes document ). Except it changes the folder instead. No combination of <dtml-with> I've tried today (and believe me, I've tried a *lot*) has given me what I need. For some reason the second method is acquiring the folder instead of the document. I don't know if that's because it's in a tree, the sort order the second call or the frame it's in. The only way I found to get around this is to have the first method call the procedure via HTTP_REFERER and put my modifying code at the top. This works, but I'd like to do some error-checking kinds of things. I appreciate the method explanation - It makes more sense now. > -----Original Message----- > From: Tres Seaver [mailto:tseaver@palladion.com] > Sent: Monday, April 03, 2000 3:51 PM > To: zope(a)zope.org; Daniel.Weber(a)SEMATECH.Org > Subject: Re: [Zope] object ID > > > Daniel.Weber(a)SEMATECH.Org asked: > > > > I have a series of pages that changes the attributes of a > dtml-document. > > For manage_changeProperties to work I need the object ID. > Passing in > > <dmtl-var id> doesn't seem to work because I'm not in the > same folder. > > > > Is there any way to get the unique id of an object that I > can pass along > > and use with a <dtml-with> tag? > > Hmm, I guess maybe I don't get your intent.

Need help with Zcatalog desperately !
by Geir B Hansen 03 Apr '00

03 Apr '00

Argh ! Discovered that my Zcatalog didn't work (due to CVS update of Zope) Tried (after advice from Michel) to update Zope again, hoping things would correct themselves. - Zcatalog still broken.. Decided a working Zcatalog was more important than keeping all my Catalog-records, so i deleted my catalog and tried to create a new one. result ; I cannot add Zcatalogs anymore ! Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this? I just need a working Catalog - Error Type: KeyError Error Value: VocabularyIDs Traceback (innermost last): File /usr/local/funcom/intranett/python/Zope2/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 214, in publish_module File /usr/local/funcom/intranett/python/Zope2/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 179, in publish File /usr/local/funcom/intranett/python/Zope2/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 211, in zpublisher_exception_hook File /usr/local/funcom/intranett/python/Zope2/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 165, in publish File /usr/local/funcom/intranett/python/Zope2/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: addZCatalog) File /usr/local/funcom/intranett/python/Zope2/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 102, in call_object (Object: addZCatalog) File /funcom/intranett/python/Zope2/lib/python/App/special_dtml.py, line 121, in __call__ (Object: addZCatalog) (Info: /funcom/intranett/python/Zope2/lib/python/Products/ZCatalog/addZCatalog.dtml) File /funcom/intranett/python/Zope2/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_String.py, line 502, in __call__ (Object: addZCatalog) File /usr/local/funcom/intranett/python/Zope2/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_In.py, line 630, in renderwob (Object: VocabularyIDs) KeyError: (see above) -- Geir Bækholt Hansen web-developer/designer geirh(a)funcom.com http://www.funcom.com

re seeking developer - THANKS ALL!

Thank you all for your advice and for making contact - there are more Aussies out there than I had thought! I will be in touch thru' the week with everyone who contacted me directly.

Probably not imperative, I have certainly worked with people interstate and overseas before (with varying degrees of success) - on some projects it's absolutely fine, but often it just becomes a lot come work communicating when you can't sit down face-to-face. Also waiting up 'til 1am to make phone calls and dealing in foreign exchange can get a little inconvenient, complicated and expensive ;-) So if I can find someone local who's good and understands my philosophy, this would be my first choice.

Hmm, I guess maybe I don't get your intent. Suppose I have a DTML Document, 'has_prop', with a property named 'aProp', currently set to 'XXX'. Its body looks like:: <dtml-var standard_html_header> <h2><dtml-var title_or_id></h2> <p> This is the <dtml-var id> Document. Property 'aProp' has value <strong><dtml-var aProp></strong>.</p> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> I have a DTML Method (*not* a document, this is important!), named 'change_prop', which looks like this:: <dtml-var standard_html_header> <dtml-call "manage_changeProperties( aProp='YYY' )"> <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect( absolute_url() )"> <dtml-var standard_html_footer> If I traverse through the DTML Document and then call the DTML Method, Zope does the Right Thing (TM): URL: http://localhost:8080/has_prop/change_prop leaves me showing the body of has_prop, whose property 'aProp' is now 'YYY'. I don't have to mess with the id of the document at all. The key is that change_prop, a DTML Method, can't have properties: it uses whatever properties belong to (or are acquired by) its "caller." In this case, the caller is has_prop, so has_prop's properties get changed. Does that help any?
