Well, now Bruce is double-dipping by getting the zope-list effect! :^) Yep, response time was pretty dreadful to his site. As he mentioned, he's doing a Pentium 120, so that doesn't help too much. Also, Bruce, are you doing normal PCGI or mod_pcgi? The latter, or even ZServer, would give a good boost. Anyway, it's certainly a great test to see! It's been a while since we spent any serious time looking at boosting Zope's raw, per-request speed, so it will be interesting to see what he finds. --Paul Paul Everitt Digital Creations paul(a)digicool.com 540.371.6909 ----------------------------------------- The Open Source Zope application server http://www.zope.org/ > -----Original Message----- > From: Itamar S.-T.

Authentication in 2.0.0b1
by Jens Vagelpohl 28 Jul '99

28 Jul '99

hi everyone, this question has come up a few times in different guises over the last few days and no one had any answer yet. i would like to clarify my setup and my problem a little more, this might help troubleshoot the cause. It all works fine under alpha3. upgrading to beta1 was done by installing beta1 in a separate directory and then just copying over the working Data.fs. The privileged user is called "change" and can "view", "access contents" and "use database methods". Here is the site setup: <Parent dir> (in acl_users: change, everything is publicly accessible) | | <SQL_Method> | <DTML_Method> (calls SQL_Method) | <page_html> (has form which calls DTML_Method) | |---<Privileged dir> (in acl_users: change, only "change" and "manager" can go here) | | <page_html> (same form as in parent, just "replicated" to inherit one folder attribute) (it calls same DTML_Method from parent dir) As you can see, both the privileged directory and the parent directory are aware of user "change". however, when i use <page_html> in the privileged area i am getting a "not authorized" error when the <DTML_Method> is trying to call <SQL_Method>. Using <page_html> as non-authenticated anonymous user in <parent dir> works fine. Anyone have an idea? Jens Vagelpohl

Attribute Errors
by Donald Holten 28 Jul '99

28 Jul '99

I think my boss installed Zope 2.0.1b last night. In the process I'm trying to rebuild what I had before. Unfortunately, I can't seem to create any ZSQL methods without getting an attribute error. Using the default values for the ZSQL method, I titled it "select test" with the id "select_test". And I got an attribute error. I've also tried creating my own table and updating an entry. The attribute error occurs when I'm trying to add the method (or add and test, or add and edit). Any ideas why this occurs? Thanks! Donner

They will remain that way, the name change is a 2.0 feature. The broken feature you may be thinking of is Zope Drafts. -Michel

'objectValues' is protected by 'Access Contents Information'. Also note that you many not have access to a Folder that this code is trying to iterate over. Try: <dtml-in ""PARENTS[-1].objectValues(['Folder'])"> <dtml-try> <dtml-if menu> <a href=<dtml-var absolute_url>><dtml-var title></a> </dtml-if> <dtml-except Unauthorized> You couldn't access this folder </dtml-try> </dtml-in> This will at least tell you if it's a folder getting you or not. Of course, we thought of this before, so the best way to really do this would be to use 'skip_unauthorized' with the #in tag: <dtml-in ""PARENTS[-1].objectValues(['Folder'])" skip_unauthorized> <dtml-if menu> <a href=<dtml-var absolute_url>><dtml-var title></a> </dtml-if> </dtml-in> -Michel

If the user comes back after the timeout, the connection is silently rebuilt behind the scenes. This required a little trickery to keep the #tree from breaking but it works very well.
