- MySQLDA, connection string
by Phil Harris 22 Jan '99

Hi all, I've got Zope working at last, at least on Linux. I've now installed the MySQLDA product and was wondering if someone could give me an example of a connection string for this scenario: DB Aspire user test password test host localhost TIA Phil wmlph(a)d032.ml.uwcm.ac.uk

- ZopeHTTPServer
by Pavlos Christoforou 22 Jan '99

22 Jan '99

Hello Zopistas I have been running a Zope site for a couple of months using the ZopeHTTPServer. Unfortunately the server crashes occasionaly with no informative comments in the var/server.log. Has anyone else encountered a similar situation? I am waiting for the medusa integration. A bobo app I was running over medusa proved to be very reliable. A month ago I was contemplating implementing Userland's XML-RPC protocol in python, and yesterday I noticed Fredrik Lundh posted a module for it. It is a very simple RPC protocol different from bci (oops ZClient) and it might be useful to integrate it into the forthcoming medusa server. Skip who seems to have taken note of it already might provide some useful info. Pavlos

by Phil Harris 22 Jan '99

22 Jan '99

Hi all, After struggling with the NT version with IIS, I decided to bite the bullet and installed on a Linux box, it is now working fine 8^). I'm now getting into the DB side of things and decided to try the ZMySQLDA, installed, compiled ok 8^), but Zope tells me that the product is broken, this is the traceback: <traceback> Traceback (innermost last): File "/home/brian/temp/build/tmp_build/Zope-1.9.0-linux2-x86/lib/python/OFS/Appli cation.py", line 378, in import_products File "lib/python/Products/ZMySQLDA/__init__.py", line 100, in ? File "lib/python/Products/ZMySQLDA/DA.py", line 102, in ? File "lib/python/Products/ZMySQLDA/db.py", line 100, in ? ImportError: /lib/libm.so.5: undefined symbol: __getfpucw </traceback> Any ideas? TIA Phil wmlph(a)d032.ml.uwcm.ac.uk

- difference between AUTHENTICATED_USER and REMOTE_USER
by Brian Hooper 22 Jan '99

22 Jan '99

Hi there - I was wondering, what's the difference between the DTML variables AUTHENTICATED_USER (defined by Zope) and REMOTE_USER (listed in the DTML guide as a CGI-defined request variable. If AUTHENTICATED_USER is defined in a given page, it seems like REMOTE_USER should also be defined - however, when I do something like    REQUEST contains a lot of stuff but not REMOTE_USER. Am I misunderstanding the meaning of this variable? (the reason I want to do this is, I want to use the name of the remote user as a parameter for a database access; there must be a good way to do this) --Brian

Hi all, >> On another list, they hack the messages in such a way that when >> you reply to the sender, it gets to the list, not the sender. I don't know >> how they do it, but it works. Maybe you could do something similar >> for zope(a)zope.org ? >Not a good idea. Sometimes I rather want to reply to the person. >Additionally, the double message allows for faster discussions: People >activly discussing are getting the mails directly of their thread, which >is faster than via the mailing list. (Actually for Zope it probably >matters less, but more heavy lists can be slow to resend mail :( ) > >Andreas Ok, but what about this: if the mailing list server get a message for xxx(a)wherever.com and zope(a)zope.org, and if xxx(a)wherever.com is a member of the list, it does not send the message twice, as xxx has already got the message. BTW, it is not very important, but it could help Regards, Jephte CLAIN Service Informatique CHSR

- Arbitrary length/named parameters
by Sharon Lippey 22 Jan '99

22 Jan '99

I have a dtml form with an arbitrary number of input fields with names which cannot be known in advance, calling a python method. (e.g serverName/cgi-bin/pythonMethod?name1=var1&name2=var2...) Python supports the sending of arbitrary, named variables to a function using functionName(**listOfKeywordValuePairs) but this will not work from Zope, I assume because the python syntax requires that the list must be sent to the function as the last parameter. Can anyone tell me whether this is the problem, and if so, how to specify that the parameters are to be sent last? The other possible solution is to send python a single sequence with a known name (I suppose defined in the dtml namespace) and send this to python containing keyword/value pairs. (e.g serverName/cgi-bin/pythonMethod?inputs = [name1:value1,..] Can anyone tell me how to instruct an html form to add its input elements to an array/sequence? Thanks, Sharon

There is a web archive of the list at http://www.egroups.com/list/zope, and egroups will let you subscribe in digest mode. I'd be interested to hear if it works for you. -Simon
