BTreeFolder doubleclick patch
by Peter Bengtsson 13 Jul '05

13 Jul '05

Shane (and the Zope list), I've patched your lovely BTreeFolder2 product (version 1.0.1) so that I can doubleclick on options in the dropdown instead of having to click the Edit button. This is using Javascript and if Javascript is disabled, nothing happens, it just goes back to what it was like before. I've attached two patch files that you can chose to include. PS. To install the patch, this works for me: $ cd zope/Products/BTreeFolder2/ $patch -p1 < BTreeFolder2.py.patch -- Peter Bengtsson, work www.fry-it.com home www.peterbe.com hobby www.issuetrackerproduct.com

Breadcrumb dilemma
by Adamo, Steven 13 Jul '05

13 Jul '05

My apologies if this is easily found in the mail-list archives (I found no easy way to search that wealth of information). I feel silly asking this collective about such a simple question, but for the life of me, I'm completely stumped. I have implemented a Plone 2.x site for our public website, and have completely replaced all the standard Plone skin. When I felt comfortable with the front page design, I wanted to use the same look and feel for my subfolders. I created a new folder (company), added the appropriate images etc., and *voila* the new section has the section specific content I want. However, the breadcrumb trail will only display "you are here: home". I simply cannot figure out what I haven't included (or what I "killed" when I created my new skin) that will make the breadcrumb pick up the new folder (you are here: home > company). Thanks for any insight! Steve

Zope update
by Josef Burger 13 Jul '05

13 Jul '05

Hi, I want to update from Zope 2.7.4 to Zope 2.7.6 What is the easiest way? Unfortunately there is no description of how an update of Zope is done. I'm running Plone on it. I tried to newly install Zope 2.7.6 and then copied the backed-up Data.fs file and the content of the Products folder. It didn't work very well. There should be no version conflicts with Plone as I checked on the Plone web site. Thanks for any advice! Josef

Versioned connectors from ZODB
by Etienne Labuschagne 13 Jul '05

13 Jul '05

If I get a versioned connection from the ZODB: conn = Zope.DB.open(version="myVersion") root = conn.root() app = root['Application'] # do some stuff get_transaction().commit() conn.close() Are the changes now in a version? How do I get those changes rolled into the "trunk" version of the ZODB? I guess all objects changed in the version will now be "locked" to that version until I apply the version changes to the trunk? Thanks Etienne

Re: [Zope] ldap authentication with apache or LDAPUserFolder?
by Tim Suter 12 Jul '05

12 Jul '05

Sorry Marco the reply to all button eluded me once again: I deleted the access file and recreated it so I could get ready to delete all instances of the old LDAPUserFolder. This has to been done prior to migration of Data.fs as the new Zope 2.8 isn't compatible with the old LDAPUserFolder. Now, after commenting out the apache lines below: #<location /Zope> #AuthName "Knowledge Access" #AuthType Basic #AuthLDAPURL ldap://X.X.org:389/o=X.org?uid?sub? (objectClass=person) #require group cn=caitstaff,ou=Groups,o=X.org #</location> I can type in the URL for the knowledge base and it takes me straight to the index_html page without authentication unlike before. However, after clicking the Manage Zope link, then you must enter in credentials, in order to access the ZMI of which the root folder contains the acl_users folder with the LDAPUserFolder configuration. Does this tell me that LDAPUserFolder is being handed the credentials via apache through some sort of redirect?

Customizing Zope FTP server
by Thierry FLORAC 12 Jul '05

12 Jul '05

Hi, I'm currently working on a Zope site, providing FTP access to some of it's sub-folders. My questions are : - is it possible to customise Zope FTP server so that a specific banner and a specific message are displayed on login ? - is it possible to "redirect" a user to a specific folder after a successful connection ? Thanks for any help, Thierry

Yes, forgot that caveat. For large files, 'data' can return a "Pdata", a list of strings. For small files, it returns a string. Always doing 'str' is a good idea. --jcc -- "Building Websites with Plone" http://plonebook.packtpub.com/ Enfold Systems, LLC http://www.enfoldsystems.com
