VersionBase?
by Phil Harris 27 Jul '99

27 Jul '99

Hi all, Just started looking at the Zope2 b1 and think I may have found a bug. If I create a Zope Draft and then try to do anything with it, even just opening it, I get this traceback: Traceback (innermost last): File C:\PROGRA~1\zope2b1\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 256, in publish_module File C:\PROGRA~1\zope2b1\lib\python\ZPublisher\Publish.py, line 145, in publish File C:\PROGRA~1\zope2b1\lib\python\ZPublisher\BaseRequest.py, line 289, in traverse File C:\PROGRA~1\zope2b1\lib\python\Products\OFSP\Draft.py, line 155, in __bobo_traverse__ (Object: qs) AttributeError: VersionBase The error as reported in the browser is: Zope Error Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource. exceptions.AttributeError Sorry, a Zope error occurred. Any ideas? Phil phil(a)philh.org

RE: [Zope] Zope 2 ODBC date errors

You can either use the patch I sent before or edit DateTime.py to make sure it has the timezone included for your country. The table at the top has to include an entry that maps what python returns as the timezone name, to the GMT offset. > -----Original Message----- > From: Graham Chiu [mailto:anon_emouse@hotmail.com] > Sent: Monday, July 26, 1999 11:30 > To: zope(a)zope.org > Subject: Re: [Zope] Zope 2 ODBC date errors > > > In article > <D133051DBC4AD111B90800A0C969498391D592(a)natasha.auslabs.lucen > t.com>, Jay, Dylan <djay(a)lucent.com> writes > >Its that damm timezone problem in zope.

ZOracleDA Weirdness
by Neill Cox 27 Jul '99

27 Jul '99

Hi, First of all the obligatory kudos to DC. What a cool product! Why did I ever bother with CGI?! Now for the problem: I'm using zope beta 1 to view Oracle Data Dictionary tables, and I have some strange behaviour. This code works fine <tr> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> </tr> But if I uncomment (add the # to) the DATA_PRECISION and/or DATA_SCALE columns Zope requests authorization before it will publish the DTML. The underlying select is: SELECT COLUMN_NAME, DATA_TYPE, DATA_LENGTH, DATA_PRECISION, DATA_SCALE NULLABLE FROM ALL_TABLES WHERE table_name = AND owner = I have carefully gone through the permissions on the object hierarchy and can't find a reason for Zope to be requesting authorization. The code works fine under Zope alpha 2. Even better this code works sometimes. It may have something to do with null values in the DATA_PRECISION and DATA_SCALE columns (as I write this I don't have access to the Oracle DB). Any suggestions as to why this is happening would be most welcome.

Your patch does not work with Zope 2.0. I desperately need something to work with 2.0. I have not tried Andreas Kostyrka's subsiting folder patch, but it doesn't seem exactly "simple".

RE: [Zope] Accessing the parent folder of a DTML document
by Alexander Staubo 27 Jul '99

27 Jul '99

Just refer to the properties directly. For example, if the parent folder has a property named "BirdSpecies", your document can refer to it thus: ! which might evaluate to something like: Albatross! Note that you may refer to the folder specifically, thus: ! Or, if the folder's name is Spam: ! Or:  !  There are about a hundred other ways, but how's this for starters? -- Alexander Staubo http://www.mop.no/~alex/ "QED?" said Russell. "It's Latin," said Morgan.

XSL is a slice-and-dice query/transformation language, based on the DSSSL beloved of SGML geeks (itself based on Scheme, I think). An XSL style-sheel _renders_ an XML document, just as DTML renders Zope objects. Frankly, the most exciting news about the XMLDocument is that I can put off learning XSL, and just use DTML and Python instead. -- ========================================================= Tres Seaver tseaver(a)palladion.com 713-523-6582 Palladion Software http://www.palladion.com

ZClass subclassing a File
by Bruce C. Dillahunty 27 Jul '99

27 Jul '99

OK, I have yet another one (thanks for all the answers so far...) I have a ZClass that has some properties, etc. I want it to be a subclass of other ZClasses that I have defined, and the "File" type provided by Zope. What I want is a "File" that Zope recognizes, so that I can load a file in, etc., but have the various properties/methods available also... can this be done? If I define my ZClass (say MSFile) as a subclass of MSFileHolder (which provides some generic file/image handling that I want to do), and a subclass of File, then it works as a File (I can never seem to see the Properties pages, etc. that I set... if I open the instantiation of the object in the management interface, I just see it as a "File"... its as if the other stuff doesn't exist. Am I way off base here? I can make my MSFileHolder be a "folderish" object (subclassing Object Manager) and put the file in there, but then I get into seperate objects, instead of just one object that has everything I want all in one place... Thanks for any pointers. Bruce -- Bruce C. Dillahunty Peachbush Enterprises bdillahu(a)mindspring.com
