Sorry, an error occured. LinuxPPC

Hello, I have recently built Zope using Sean Summers Zope src.rpm. This is for Zope 1.10.2. I am trying to get Zope running on LinuxPPC R4.1 which is based on RedHat 5.0 Hurricane sources. I have made dozens of attempts to get Zope running. Install LinuxPPC, compile Python, compiled Zope. Repeat... I have been doing this for a couple weeks now. Maybe now I'm smart enough to yell help. :) I have yet to successfully run Zope. I have had situations where doing python serve.py and Python would Segmentation fault. I have never seen ./start.sh do anything. Possibly because Python was seg faulting. The closest I have gotten is getting ZopeHTTPServer started on a recent re-install. I installed LinuxPPC as default as possible. I did not do KDE, Gnome, WindowMaker or anything which my change anything. The current window manager is fvwm. I installed Python from the CD installer, straight as default. The cd rpm does not have threads configured. Anytime I compiled Python with-thread ZopeHTTPServer seg faulted. Anyway... I start up ZopeHTTPServer with: # python serve.py It runs appropriately. I open up Netscape and login and go the manage screen. I click on the Control Panel. I click on database management and get this error. Sorry, an error occured. I go back to the Control Panel and click on Shutdown and get this error. Sorry, an error occured. I am able to add objects, DTML Method, etc. Change objects. Just no database management and no shutting down. I have the var directory and all it's content set to 766. Any ideas. Thanks, Jimmie Houchin

Zope Install On Windows
by Randall Marbach 07 Apr '99

07 Apr '99

I would like to use Zope on my WINNT 4.0 box with my existing python 1.5.2b2 installation which is in C:\Program Files\Python. What is the best way to do this? I tried down loading the Zope source and running python wo_pcgi.py but it eventually crashes with a : . . . Listing C:\ZOPE\pcgi\Util ... Listing C:\ZOPE\pcgi\Win32 ... Listing C:\ZOPE\var ... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Building extension modules ------------------------------------------------ Compiling extensions in lib/python make -f Makefile.pre.in boot PYTHON=C:\Program Files\Python\python.exe The name specified is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Traceback (innermost last): File "C:\ZOPE\wo_pcgi.py", line 100, in ? import build_extensions File "C:\ZOPE\build_extensions.py", line 96, in ? make('lib','python') File "C:\ZOPE\do.py", line 105, in make do('make -f Makefile.pre.in boot PYTHON=%s' % sys.executable) File "C:\ZOPE\do.py", line 97, in do if i and picky: raise SystemError, i SystemError: 1 As a python newbie, I'm lost at this point. As an option, is there a way to get the Zope Windows binary release to use the C:\Program Files\Python installation instead of the Zope python? My motivation for this is that I have installed mxDateTime and mxODBC and other packages in the C:\Program Files\Python directory tree, and when I try to use the packages from the Zope directory, things seem to get confused. ANy feedback would be deeply appreciated.

Acquisition with External Methods
by Chad McDaniel 07 Apr '99

07 Apr '99

I'm having some trouble with calling External Methods from DTML documents. I have DTML document "Query" that defines a form with action "View". "View" is also a DTML document containing a call to an External Method:  Ext Method would like to get access to the form values passed to View, but I can't figure out how to do it. There doesn't seem to be a way for ExtMethod to acquire the values and I can't pass them as arguments. any advice? thanks -- -chad

You need to copy the file zope12_cgi.exe to your cgi-bin directory, then rename it to zope12.exe.

The zope web server doesn't currently run as an NT service - it is really meant as a way for folks to try out Zope quickly and get it up and running without having to fiddle with their production web servers. Though it is quite stable, the built-in server intentionally does not support all the features people would expect from a production server - most folks use the built-in server to quickly get a feel for Zope, then integrate it with their current server once they've decided to use it. That said, a single Zope instance can be run using _either_ the built-in server or your server, but not both simultaneously. Hope this helps!
