Pluggable Auth Service ... how is it used?
by Richard Jones 07 Jul '05

07 Jul '05

I'd like to get session-based login going, and on the surface PAS appears to support that. First up, is there any documentation? I've set up in my PAS "acl_users" the following objects: 1. "cookies" - a Cookie Auth Helper active for Challenge 2. "session" - a Session Auth Helper active for Extraction, Update Credentials and Reset Credentials 3. "users" - a ZODB User Manager with a single user "test" 4. "roles" - a ZODB Role Manager with the "test" user assigned to "Manager" Then accessing a "Manager" protected method inside the folder brings up the login form from the Cookie Auth Helper, but submitting that form does nothing (it returns the empty form to me). Switching the "cookies" object to handle Extraction, Update Credentials and Reset Credentials makes the login work, but I'd like to use the session. The docs that come with the product talk about Decorators and Property Sheets used to extend the user properties, but I can't even find anything with either of those names in the UI. The interface has "Scriptable Plugin" with a teasingly disabled "Validation" interface -- which I have found to mean user validation. I'd like to enforce valid email address capture ... when I can figure how to actually capture an email address, that is. Richard

paypal IPN. Debug messages missing. Script goes zombie
by Ed Colmar 06 Jul '05

06 Jul '05

Hi all! I've been hacking together a few seperate paypal IPN connections, some code from basion, and some from random web scrapings... Anyway... Things are working for the most part, except that this method for some reason dies when using urllib.urlopen(), and what is really wierd is that I get no error message, it just hangs. I am running an older version of zope, but I have never seen this behaviour before. The debug (-D) flag is set in start. here is the code I am using... As far as I can tell my syntax is proper... ??? def paypal_notify(self,address_street='',address_zip='',first_name='',last_name='',payer_business_name='',payer_email='', payer_id='',payer_status='',residence_country='',quantity='',receiver_email='',receiver_id='',custom='',invoice='', memo='',auth_id='',auth_exp='',auth_amount='',auth_status='', remaining_settle='', mc_gross_x='',mc_handling_x='',mc_shipping_x='', num_cart_items='',parent_txn_id='',payment_date='',payment_status='',payment_type='', pending_reason='',reason_code='',txn_id='',txn_type='',exchange_rate='',mc_currency='',mc_fee='', mc_gross='', mc_handling='',payment_gross='',settle_amount='',settle_currency='', auction_buyer_id='',auction_closing_date='',auction_multi_item='',for_auction='', option_name1='',option_name2='',option_selection1='',option_selection2='',tax='', subscr_date='',subscr_effective='',period1='',period2='',period3='',amount1='', amount2='',amount3='',mc_amount1='',mc_amount2='',mc_amount3='',recurring='', reattempt='',retry_at='', recur_times='',username='',password='',subscr_id='',test_ipn=0,REQUEST=None): """ take a IPN from paypal, and update the database """ print "Initiating paypal IPN" # they want us to send back their same shite (and we've just nicely # deblocked it from the REQUEST...) print "DEBUG = STARTING" requestform = REQUEST.form print requestform['quantity'] # debug test requestform['cmd'] = '_notify-validate' print "DEBUG = INSERTED NEW VALUE" print requestform print "sending request back to paypal" requestparams = urllib.urlencode(requestform) print "DEBUG = Encoded Request" print requestparams data = urllib.urlopen('https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr', requestform) print "DEBUG = urlretrieved" print data.read() print "DEBUG = DATA READ" ---------------------------------------------- I see all my debug print commands until "encoded Request" and requestparams, so it is getting lost on the urlopen call. Thanks for any help or tips. I'll post the final IPN method when I'm done. Cheers! -ed

Zope won't give up WebDAV Lock
by hpinson＠indepthl.com 06 Jul '05

06 Jul '05

I have a regularly occuring WebDAV problem: A file edited via ExternalEditor gets a WebDAV lock. Upon closing (Textpad in this case) occasionally the lock is not released. The lock is not listed in Control Panel > WebDAV Lock Manager, therefore cannot be released there. Restarting Zope does not release the lock. This is getting to be a terrible problem. Once a lock is in place, the file cannot be changed, renamed, or deleted at all subsequently. Zope is 2.7.6 Final, Fedora Core 3, Python 2.3.3 Here is the only reference that I have been able to find in the log: 2005-07-06T10:22:00 ERROR(200) SiteError http://.../PUT Traceback (most recent call last): File "/var/zope276/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py", line 101, in publish request, bind=1) File "/var/zope276/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py", line 88, in mapply if debug is not None: return debug(object,args,context) File "/var/zope276/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py", line 39, in call_object result=apply(object,args) # Type s<cr> to step into published object.

ZPT with Zope 3 queries - repeat over contained items; accessing adapters
by Jim Vine 05 Jul '05

05 Jul '05

Hello, I'm building an application in Zope 3. I have a container object called a PropertyFolder, which holds Property objects. * Repeating over contained items. I'm trying to create a view which displays a list of all the Property objects in a property folder. I've tried doing this as described in the ZPT chapter of the Zope Book (2.6 edition), using a tal:repeat statement, but I can't seem to get it working. Has something changed in Zope 3? I've tried looking in the Zope 3 book, but none of the references to tal:repeat in there seem to be used for this type of thing. * Accessing adapters in ZPT I've created an adapter that provides a method called getStars that can be used on Property objects. Can I access this directly from my ZPT, as I can any other attribute of a property object? At the moment I've got it implemented via a Python view class, so my ZPT accesses it like: <div class="field" tal:content="view/stars" /> but other attributes can be accessed like: <div class="field" tal:content="context/description" /> so I guess I want to be able to do: <div class="field" tal:content="context/getStars" /> and negate the need for the Python View Class, which only says: def stars(self): """Get the stars for the property""" rate = IPropertyRate(self.context) stars = rate.getStars() return stars Thanks in advance for any tips.

LDAPUserFolder OLD and Zope 2.5.1 migration to LDAPUserFolder 2.5 and Zope 2.8
by Tim Suter 05 Jul '05

05 Jul '05

I believe it was Jens that gave me the how-to on how to migrate an existing Zope 2.5.1 install using LDAPUserFolder for authentication to Zope 2.8. Below is his response with some of my questions: - Get the latest released LDAPUserFolder version and install it into your new Zope 2.8-based instance I have done this. - Make a backup copy of your old ZODB If you mean the Data.fs, then this is done also. - Log into a 2.5.1-based instance as the emergency user (-> see doc/ SECURITY.txt in your 2.5.1 Zope installation about how to create one) I can't do this part because I was left with no info in regards to what the credentials are as the emergency user. I have located the access file though. Can I delete this file and create a new one documented in SECURITY.txt? - if you don't have a LDAPUserFolder in the Zope root you can skip that and log in as a Manager user from the root user folder The LDAPUserFolder is in the root of the Zope instance and that is the only place it is located. The original acl_user folder is gone leaving only the acl_user folder with the LDAPUserFolder code. - Delete every single LDAPUserFolder instance you have I can do that as long as I am guaranteed that I will be able to log in as the emergency user and as long as when I restore the backed up Data.fs, I will be back to where I started after the migration. - Stop Zope - Copy the Data.fs into your Zope 2.8-based sandbox I am assuming you mean the cleaned up version with no instances of the old LDAPUserFolder. - If you had a LDAPUserFolder at the root, make sure you're set up for an emergency user - Start Zope and log in either as an emergency user or a root user folder manager - Recreate all LDAPUserFolder instances. Just need one, at the root. From there, upon logging in, if you are in our LDAP with the right credentials, then you can manage Zope. Tim

About Zope 2.7.7
by Pascal Peregrina 05 Jul '05

05 Jul '05

Hi, I just finished upgrading our production servers to Zope 2.8.0 (from Zope 2.7.6) Today I noticed that Zope 2.7.7 is under development... and it contains some interesting bug fixes (the one concerning if modified since header handling for example). I guess that these fixes will be included in Zope 2.8.1 right ? Any idea when 2.8.1 may be available ? Thanks.
