RE: [Zope] CRM and Zope
by Ken Manheimer 08 Sep '99

08 Sep '99

Just a note that Digital Creations has a commercial add-on, Zope Enterprise Option (ZEO) which implements a ZODB client/server arrangement, with arbitrary number of clients. Since the clients have their own object caches (which are coordinated with that of the server, inherently maintaining correct synchronization), the multiple access tends to gain significant performance benefits as well as, well, multiple access. (ZEO is not free, however - congruent to the notion that most people that need it would be doing large-scale commercial type stuff, and would be in the position to pay. Heck, _eager_ to pay.-) On rereading your note i'm not sure whether this addresses your item 5, replication/distribution. You didn't say why you wanted it - if it's multi-host access, then it does, but if it's some kind of robustness replication, then i imagine you could achieve that with actual replication of the database file (vie disk mirroring, periodic copies, whatever).

changing standard colours
by Robin Becker 08 Sep '99

08 Sep '99

My almost finished site uses a standard colour scheme throughout. As part of the change to using dynamic .png images rather than .gifs I found that neither IE or Netscape seem to implement png transparency (alpha channel) correctly. I therefore needed to access the background colour of my pages. I found no obvious method of getting this. I implemented a standard_color dtml-method and modified the standard_header method to use it. It occurred to me that this could be more generally useful. Anyone implemented a better scheme, perhaps using TinyTable or is there some magical way to do this sort of thing. For the interested here're my methods. I use two page formats normal and nonstandard and in addition some pages don't have a body (no_body is defined) ie for setting up frames.

It makes sense that you have to either let them manage the box fully (ie no root for you), or you manage it fully (ie you get root). >Does Zope help with the organization of "html" files?

For example, you can have an "author" property, and then use ZCatalog to list all docs with that author. Zope also has a "Find" feature to help you locate something through the management interface.

If you run Zope as root, it will turn itself into 'nobody'. This is a security feature many programs do. Run Zope as a user other than root and make sure that user has permission to write in the var directory.
