Pb with lot of files in publication
by LAGADEC André 06 May '99

06 May '99

We use zope 1.10.2 (under linux Red hat 5.2 with Apache 1.3.3) and we publish html pages with communicator (composer v4.03 or 4.5 under windows 98). When publishing a number of GIF files greather than 100 (for example 121) the publication stop on a file and we have the message "Ce document ne contient aucune données" (document without any data). But this file is not empty ! And if we publish the 21 last files, it is OK. Is there a limit in publishing ? Please help... Thanks

Still tiny *but* gradually getting out of crisis mode. We're also establishing relationships with other companies. Growing a business while keeping focus is challenging. Fortunately we have good people here and good people on the way. They don't need much help -- in fact I fired myself two days ago. I was turning into a bottleneck and decided to get out of the way.

They are a technology-only firm that has done good work for some of the other companies in Verticality's portfolio. I'm very confident that they will get us the ear of the opinion makers. For some of the brand definition, logo overhaul, taglines, etc., I'm too much of an engineer.

Hi digicool, I'm wondering, why don't you already change your logo at www.zope.org into the new logo (seen in Zope 1.11).... it's more attractive... and fancier... just a thought... :-) Tom.

Yes, you have to edit the FTP module and configure the IP-Adress. -- I'm busily ignoring some thousand of implications I have determined to be irrelevant.

Re: [Zope] Could we migrate Zope email to a news group?

This could include the "dual news/list solution" that I see Alexander Staubo suggesting in another response. I'm fine with such, so long as someone else does the work. Such dual solutions are certainly _heavily_ used inside SGI, where I work. |> If you're really eager to get a comp.sys.zope, great ... Ah -- there's a key point. My going off and getting a comp.*.zope accepted would be a useless waste of time (or worse - some sort of information pollution) unless the Zope masters (likely starting with someone from Digital Creations, such as Paul Everitt, Michel Pelletier, Jim Fulton, Brian Lloyd, Rob Page or Ken Manheimer, based on how often I see their names in my email archive) backs this, and a Zope community concensus forms to motivate the shift from the email list to the news group for most activity. Otherwise, I'm just pissing in the wind. (And not "comp.sys.zope", I hope. "comp.sys" seems to be for computer system (sw+hw) vendors, not web server software). ======================================================================= I won't rest till it's the best ...

I would *not* be suprised. I think it's a bug in the FTP module. If you configure a IP-Adress, it's not known by the FTP module. You have to configure it in the FTP module, too.

I tried doing this. I replaced the top level acl_users with a UserDB that used cookie authentication. Now I can't get into the site at all. Everytime I try to manage or just view the site I get a basic authentication dialog. If I login using either a super-user password or a manager account, nothing is accepted. This is a serious problem. Can anyone help me reverse or fix the problem.
