Moving A Product to a new database
by Bruce C. Dillahunty 24 Jul '99

24 Jul '99

OK, I must be missing something. I have a product I have created (with lots of ZClasses), which I wanted to move to a new "clean" database (the one that came with beta1). I export the product, move to the new system, try to import the product and get (MasterStore is the name of the product): The object MasterStore does not support this operation Traceback (innermost last): File /mnt/oracle/bdillahu_work/Zope-2.0.0b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 256, in publish_module File /mnt/oracle/bdillahu_work/Zope-2.0.0b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 161, in publish File /mnt/oracle/bdillahu_work/Zope-2.0.0b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 154, in mapply (Object: manage_importObject) File /mnt/oracle/bdillahu_work/Zope-2.0.0b1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 98, in call_object (Object: manage_importObject) File /mnt/oracle/bdillahu_work/Zope-2.0.0b1-src/lib/python/OFS/ObjectManager.py, line 476, in manage_importObject (Object: ApplicationDefaultPermissions) File /mnt/oracle/bdillahu_work/Zope-2.0.0b1-src/lib/python/OFS/CopySupport.py, line 381, in _verifyObjectPaste (Object: ApplicationDefaultPermissions) Copy Error: (see above) ------------ What am I doing wrong here? I can create a distribution and get it to install, but then I don't see all of my ZClasses, etc. so that I can continue to improve on them. Thanks for info. for this newbie. Bruce -- Bruce C.

RE: [Zope] Assignment to Properties (not intuitive!)
by Evan Simpson 23 Jul '99

23 Jul '99

>> Try  in the >> DTML method. > Is there any reason why the syntax can't just be . > Manage_changeProperties is not intuitive at all. There are a few: 1. Any tag expression is evaluated as a Python expression, and Python only allows '=' as a statement. 2. Even if Python allowed it, we wouldn't want to use it; Property changes must pass through a function which can enforce security, notify the object store, etc. 3. All operations on objects are supposed to be performed by methods starting with 'manage_'. 4. People would be tempted to create new properties this way, which would fail since there's no way to specify the property type. That said, there are flavors of sugar which someone could write for this, if they felt motivated to do so: 1. Make a #setprop tag. This could allow type specifier for new properties. 2. Hack the call tag to check for '=' in an expression and convert it (Yech). 3. Use an external method. (WARNING: You can accidentally bypass the property type system this way!)

"this" inside rendered DTML Method
by Alexander Staubo 23 Jul '99

23 Jul '99

Question: Inside a DTML Method "foo" being included (through #var) in an DTML Document "bar", what should the "this" function evaluate to? foo looks like this:  and bar like this:  I say it should evaluate to the DTML Document. But it seems that it evaluates to the parent folder. It doesn't make sense. How, then, can I access the document including the DTML Method?

A point of legal note is that the client libraries are licensed as well as the server, so you can not *legally* copy things like this under most license agreements. You need to check with your admin about the licensing agreement issues. Chris -- | Christopher Petrilli Python Powered Digital Creations, Inc. | petrilli(a)digicool.com http://www.digicool.com

Exactly. Which means if you're going to follow the letter of the law, a license for Oracle Developer Edition may be required. (I'm not familiar with Oracle's licensing policies though. Maybe there is such a thing as a "developer license" for using these libraries.) It doesn't exactly promote open, unadulterated development of Oracle clients. -- Alexander Staubo http://www.mop.no/~alex/ "`This must be Thursday,' said Arthur to himself, sinking low over his beer, `I never could get the hang of Thursdays.'" --Douglas Adams, _The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy_ >-----Original Message----- >From: Christopher Petrilli [mailto:petrilli@digicool.com] >Sent: 23. juli 1999 20:39 >To: Alexander Staubo; Zope Mailing List (E-mail); 'Ryan Grace' >Subject: Re: [Zope] Oracle DA installation... > > >> You need the OCI distribution and/or an Oracle installation, >or at least >> the include and lib files that comes with them. >> >> Really annoying when you're working with an ISP's server -- >or any other >> case where the server doesn't belong to you and is not >physically within >> reach -- unless they're inclined to send you the files. > >A point of legal note is that the client libraries are >licensed as well as >the server, so you can not *legally* copy things like this under most >license agreements.

You need the OCI distribution and/or an Oracle installation, or at least the include and lib files that comes with them.

Oracle DA installation...
by Ryan Grace 23 Jul '99

23 Jul '99

Hi. I grabbed the Oracle DA from the Zope site and attempted to install it on my machine for use. It balked at the 'make' step (step 3 I think in the instructions) complaining about not finding 'ociapr.h'. Is there something that needs to be installed first before I can build the Oracle DA? Ryan
