RE: [Zope] Link scanning
by Ragnar Beer 31 Jan '00

I just found out what's going wrong with linbot: If I rename index_html to index.html and call linbot with http://localhost/index.html everything works fine. http://localhost/ doesn't work. Seems to be a matter of what the scanner regards as html and what not. Unfortunately this seems to apply to a LOT of (GPL) link scanners. Could there be a possibility to work around this in zope?

Tokens: Please help
by cesare＠planningsrl.it 31 Jan '00

Hi all! It's the third time I post this problem but no one answered me. But I cannot carry on with my application if I don't resolve it. So I need your help. Can someone tell me how can I have a form in which the user can insert wordS and I return the list of records (on db) that contain in a certain field one of those words. I tried with sql-group and sql-test (using the op operator) but as soon as I insert two words it translate it in an "in" operator. Than I tried to use tokens, sql-group cicling on the words and building the sql statement and it works proprerly but only from inside the test window. When I tried it from the form I have got the following error: Zope Error Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource. Error Type: InError Error Value: Strings are not allowed as input to the in tag. I tried other way but I can't get out. Could you please help me!

I will hazard a wild guess that you are using a Netscape server :) There is a known problem with NS servers where they don't like the '.' target that we used to use in some management screen form targets. We thought that we found and changed all of those, but it turns out that there is still one of these in the file renameForm.dtml in the current Zope release (this file is in the lib/python/OFS directory of your distribution). You can edit this file and change the line: <FORM ACTION="." METHOD="POST"> to: <FORM ACTION="<dtml-var URL1>" METHOD="POST"> ...and restart your Zope instance to fix the problem. The fix for this will be in 2.2.0 as well. Brian Lloyd brian(a)digicool.com Software Engineer 540.371.6909 Digital Creations http://www.digicool.com

Re: [Zope] Whats the best way to Automatically Start Zope Server on bootup??

SuSe uses /sbin/rc*. RedHat uses /etc/rc/rc*.

Given the numerous init scripts in a standard installation which can be used as working examples, and the fairly obvious documentation on what runlevels are at the top of (most Linux) /etc/inittab or the init manpage, the learning curve for someone who either knows or is about to know Python is not significant. > I'm serious.

In working with Windows refugees and those new to computing I've normally found I can cover the area enough to give them a working knowledge, eough to understand the base concepts of runlevels and how and when they might need to use them in their use of the system, in about 10 - 20 minutes (depending on how many Window based assumptions needs to be unlearned first). This is starting with someone from ground zero -- no prior knowledge. With Zope we can make more useful assumtions: that the person has both some technical interest and ability, that he has some basic programming experience or interest and thus understands at least the basic concepts of process flow control, and simple scripting. Given those not insignificant head starts, figuring out runlevels should really only be a matter of a few minutes. > For a newbie, the *nix/Zope combination requires a serious time > investment. In the Debain world installing Zope is a trivial as: # apt-get install zope and waiting a couple minutes while its sucked off the network and installed (there are a couple config prompts along the wang, but nothing confusing). The Debian Zope pakcage maintainer (who I belive is on this list) has both done a good job, and is responsive to questions. For Redhat systems I'm told that there are RPMs available which install equally if not more trivially. As I no longer run any RH systems I can't verify this however. -- J C Lawrence Home: claw(a)kanga.nu ----------(*) Other: coder(a)kanga.nu --=| A man is as sane as he is dangerous to his environment |=--

The attached patch changes the 'add WorldPilot' screen to have options for 'imapserver' and 'smtpserver'. I've pretty brutally hacked the code to pass this through to the appropriate bits of the system where required. It seems to Work For Me. Anthony

aquisition problem
by Terry Kerr 31 Jan '00

31 Jan '00

Hi, I am having a problem with aquisition within a python product...well I don't think I understand it properly yet. I have a folder inside a product, and an object within that folder. A view of that object allows the user to call a function from the base class of the product. That function tries to get the id of the object that called it. The function that is called is access by the URL: /home/product/folder/object/function I would have assumed that self.aq_parent would have done the trick, but it returns the name of the folder that contains the product (home), and self.id returns the name of the product. How can I get into context which object the method was called from? terry -- Terry Kerr (terry(a)adroit.net) Adroit Internet Solutions (www.adroitnet.com.au) (03) 9888 8522 0414 938 124
