Hi Phil, Sorry I didn't make things clear (maybe I'll update the list?). Yes I solved my problem and feel really dumb. I didn't realize that the traceback is in the error page as a comment. Once I found that out, I saw immediately that the arguments passed in had a couple of extra fields that I didn't use (the master and detail tables share some initial fields). I took them out of the sql statement and the form, but I didn't remove them from the argument list. (Just an FYI, the system allows you to add additional detail records, the first one is autogenerated from the master) > Hi Tom, > > I have been on vacation and can't tell whether you have solved your problem. > > If you are still having problems email me.

Calendar tag released
by tsarna＠endicor.com 21 Mar '99

People have been asking for my Calendar tag product, so I've uploaded a beta version to the contributed software page. With the DateTime class fixed in zope 1.10.x, it should be stable (in 1.9, misccalculations sometimes cause botches like repeated days). Have fun, and let me know what you think. When I get a chance I'll probably add a Year mode and polish up the documentation and call it 1.0.

In the pcgi/Util directory, you'll find a killpcgi.py script. You could hack it to perform a restart, i.e. launch a new pcgi process after killing the old one. This would speed up your initial connect time and be much faster during debugging (multiple restarts). Best regards, Jeff Bauer Rubicon, Inc.

Why do I have to reimport External Methods ?
by Maik Roeder 20 Mar '99

20 Mar '99

Hi all ! I am new to Zope, and I have a problem with External Methods. Everytime I change the implementation of my file in Extensions/test.py I have to reimport the External Method to see the changes. What am I doing wrong ? I just want the changes I made to the source code to be reflected when I reload a page ! I hope someone can explain what I am doing wrong here. Maik Röder Some more details: I have a folder called VMBI and an external method test in it. Everything works just fine, the index_html file has a call to the external method, which just prints "Hello World!"  So the following URL http://localhost:9673/VMBI/test prints Hello World ! But when I change the original source code to print for example Hello Zope ! Then upon reloading the web page http://localhost:9673/VMBI/test there still is printed Hello World ! What's going on here ?

RE: [Zope] Web Application Software

<NOTE>I do not know much about btrieve.</NOTE> <btrieve> If you can make btrieve a data source you are home free. All you need is the connector/drivers. http://www.zope.org/Download/Adapters Also look into: http://www.python.org/download/Contributed.html#Database Typically these modules make there way into zope as they are existing python modules. Actually I would gather that Btrieve has a c interface that would make a great product. </btrieve> <dev> As with all projects .... it depends. Using attributes is the key to zope. If you take advantage of its ability to store session variables Zope is far better than other solutions because you do not need a database to store info during a transaction, you can simply write it to an attribute in zope thus lowering the # database calls. I guess the implementation depends on allot of variables that were not listed in your email. 1. # of concurrent users 2. # of queries and "How databasy is the application? Big Queries? OnChange?" 3. Specifics on your data model 4. # of tasks required 5. How OO(Object Oriented) are you? It is a difficult concept to cover but developmental access to ZOPE is remote by nature. Anything you can do in Zope is accessible anywhere, by anyone else. Except for installing modules and products, you do not need machine access ---> Everything is done online and inside of Zope. It is convenient that way. Look into the bug collector for the ZOPE site. It allows many levels of access to the bug database except there is not database just Ztables. It might be just the ticket. http://www.zope.org/Collector Also take a look at the example folder here http://www.zope.org/Download/Contrib Specifically the DTML EXAMPLE FOLDER --> IT WILL GIVE YOU LOTS O' CODE and HINTS </dev> Just think in OO and Zope will work. Best of luck. Theodore E.

I am writing an internal application for a tour operator that I work for. Right now, I'm considering the software for a group quote program that will allow people on the Intranet or people travelling abroad with the groups to add or edit services on a complete group package. The kicker is that we need to access some btrieve files that are part of another accounting package that needs to be tied into this. Assuming I figure a way around the btrieve packages, is Zope robust enough to handle an application like this? All I've seen so far are shopping cart programs, but this would be much more complex. Are there any references to any pointers or any such information about just what Zope can do? I haven't been able to glean as much as I wanted from the site.

Status of Collector?
by Joe Van Andel 20 Mar '99

20 Mar '99

I see that the bug report and feature request lists are implemented using the "Collector". What's the status of this? 1) Is it shipped with ZOPE 1.10.2? (I couldn't find it) 2) Is it purchased from Digital Creations? Thanks much.
