Error listing Zope2b4 root folder via FTP

Hmm, having just supplied that FTP hint, I find that it doesn't seem to work on my 2b4 install, at least listing the root folder doesn't, everything else does. Anyone else afflicted? ftp> ls "-al /." /tmp/efsaFA4eD 200 PORT command successful. 550 Could not list directory. ftp> cheers alex ########################################## This email, its content and any files transmitted with it are intended solely for the addressee(s) and may be legally privileged and/or confidential.

Distribution Tab for a ZClass Product
by Kevin Dangoor 13 Aug '99

13 Aug '99

When I use the Distribution tab for a ZClass-based Product, I can select the objects that are in the Product and create the archive, but when I install it in a fresh Zope, the object is not on the "Add" list. The product.dat file is 16K, so it seems like something is in there. I wanted to use the standard distribution archive format because then people could install it using the same process they would any other Product. Right now, they have to explicitly import the Product from the Control Panel. (The advantage to that setup is that they get all of the source). Is there anything else I need to know about the Distribution tab? Thanks, Kevin

Public CVS checkout hasn't updated files in several days
by Jim Cain 13 Aug '99

13 Aug '99

I've been maintaining my copy of Zope using public CVS. When I ran this command: cvs -z7 -q up -P -d on August 10 and again on August 12, there were no changes. I think the last time I received updates was August 5. Surely there have been changes since then. Cheers, Jim

RE: [Zope] How to update a password for a logged user in memory

If you're using cookie-based authentication you could set the cookie in the same form that accepts the new password and sets it in the database. I believe the name of the variable is __ac__password but I'm not sure. View Source in the Zope management UI inside a UserDB user edit screen and you'll see the password. --Rob

editing via ftp
by Tim Wilson 13 Aug '99

13 Aug '99

Greetings Zopesters, I understand that ZServer provides access to your Zope documents via ftp, but I don't know how to make that work. Could someone provide some specific instructions on how to use XEmacs, for example, through ftp to my Zope documents? Is it possible to use NEdit in that way? Thanks. -Tim -- Timothy Wilson | "The faster you | Check out: Henry Sibley H.S. | go, the shorter | http://slashdot.org/ W.

Go to the Control Panel->Products folder, find the Product, and look to see if it is broken. If it is broken, there is a tab that lets you view the error. --Paul > -----Original Message----- > From: Arnaud Lecat [mailto:lecat@hexanet.fr] > Sent: Friday, August 13, 1999 8:47 AM > To: ZOPE > Subject: [Zope] Products question... > > > I play around with products.

Observation: using FTP and Zope2.0bx
by Tony McDonald 13 Aug '99

13 Aug '99

Hi all, been home with a dreadful lurgi for most of the week, but having an iMac and a LinuxPPC equipped MySQL/Zope2.0 system kept me Zoped up (and gunged-up too, but that's a different story). I was using BBEdit and the FTP component (default port:8021) of Zope 2 and the combination is *very* impressive. You can only create DTML methods, but the speed of updating a Zope site is *much* faster than editing the TEXTAREA box. Recommended. Now if I could only figure out that 'monitor' stuff.... tone out. ------ Dr Tony McDonald, FMCC, Networked Learning Environments Project http://nle.ncl.ac.uk/ The Medical School, Newcastle University Tel: +44 191 222 5888 Fingerprint: 3450 876D FA41 B926 D3DD F8C3 F2D0 C3B9 8B38 18A2

FYI: Running Zope off a CD-ROM
by Paul Everitt 13 Aug '99

13 Aug '99

Howdy folks. I thought I'd share the results of something we delivered yesterday and see if anyone here thinks it's useful. We are pursuing a contract for a think tank that wants to provide an interactive presentation of a data-driven policy decision. The deliverable must run completely off a CD-ROM without installation of anything and use a standard web browser with no tricks. First we whipped up a quick Zope site that had a few cosmetic pieces in it. For a demonstration application we took 1600 recent Zope mail messages, made a ZClass for them, then loaded them into Zope and catalogued them. Next we took the "read-only" machinery that _might_ be in Z2b4 (it's in my sandbox), that allows ZServer to run without writing a pid file or log file, and ZODB to run in-memory. You're still allowed to do everything with the database -- add objects, undo, versions, etc. -- but no changes are made on disk. When you quit, the changes are gone. Very useful for giving demos as well. Finally I copied the directory onto a CD-R. Sure enough, you just double-click on start.bat (I don't know anything about autorun) and, after a bit of a wait, everything runs just fine. Absolutely nothing gets written to the hard drive. It's still a little rough. First, there's a whole lot of unnecessary stuff being imported (like all the win32 stuff for running as a service), and thus the startup time is around 45 seconds. With some serious tinkering I imagine that could be brought under control. But still it's a neat opportunity for Zope. Where else can the app server _and_ database be cranked up with one click and leave your system in a nice state? Try that with ColdFusion or Domino. :^) If anyone thinks this would make a good "How-To", either for the part about running in read-only mode or the mail archive application, lemme know. --Paul

Products question...

I play around with products. Here's the problem I'm facing now. How come a product I've installed (calendar product) doesn't appear in the list. Yes I've stopped/restarted Zope :) I've already installed other products with succes (ex: tiny table, etc...) -- >> WinErr: 080 Clavier introuvable - Veuillez appuyer sur n'importe quelle touche pour continuer. << Arnaud LECAT >> Email: lecat(a)hexanet.fr >> WWW page:www.hexanet.fr/~lecat HEXANET >> http://www.hexanet.fr Z.A.
