exUserFolder 0.50.0 no redirect
by Ulrich Wisser 24 Nov '04

24 Nov '04

Hi, I installed Zope 2.7.3 and exUserFolder 0.50.0. I get the login scrren, but when logged in, I am not redirected to my original page, but instead /acl_users (which of course has no index_html which means I get the Zope tutorial from my root). How do I make exUserFolder to redirect me to my original page?

Renaming File Before Download
by David Siedband 24 Nov '04

24 Nov '04

In one of the web apps I'm working on, users upload files into a LocalFS directory. The python upload script renames the files so that the files name is unique, and based on the corresponding unique ID of it's metadata in my database. Though now when people download the files they have names like 14201.pdf instead of the original filename. Is there a way I can rename the file back to it's original name (stored in the db) upon download? -- David

RE: [Zope] changing default language
by Jean-Francois.Doyon＠CCRS.NRCan.gc.ca 24 Nov '04

Samuele, Yup, use an "Access Rule". Basically, create a python script that has the logic you need (Read cookie value, set HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE as needed). Then just set that python script as an access rule in the root of your site. This is assuming you use the PlacelessTranslationService. If you use Localizer, the same idea should be applicable, although I don't think it uses HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE to determine language?) For instance. I have 2 access rules, one in the root of each folder for each language, here's one: request = container.REQUEST request.set('HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE', 'en') In your case, because language is determined not by the URL path, but by a cookie, just alter the code to read the cookie, and put it in the root of your site, and that should do it!

Invalidating a session, creating a new
by Sune Broendum Woeller 24 Nov '04

24 Nov '04

Hi all, In the zope book, sessions chapter, is written: "Manually Invalidating A Session Data Object Developers can manually invalidate a session data object. When a session data object is invalidated, it will be flushed from the system, and will not be returned by subsequent references to REQUEST.SESSION or getSessionData(). " and : "...subsequent references to REQUEST.SESSION in this same request will return a new session data object." I would like to be able to invalidate the session object, and then create a new session with a new key, to be accessed in the next request. But I find that when invalidating a session data object, I can *still* access the old session data in subsequent references to REQUEST.SESSION, in the same request that is. I do not get a new session data object, as I should according to the zope book. And therefore I can not reference the new keys I create in the following requests. Has anyone got a solution for this problem ? It seems the invalidation goes on "between" requests. Is this an error with the sessioning machinery or in the zope book ? Below there are three test scripts, that shows what is going on. greetings, Sune B. Woeller file test1.py: ****** s = context.REQUEST.SESSION s['mykey']='myvalue' print "Page 1, add a key to session. " print "session : " print s print " " print '<a href ="test2">Page 2, invalidate session and add a new key</a> ' print '<a href ="test3">Page 3, show session</a> ' return printed ***** file test2.py: ***** s = context.REQUEST.SESSION print "Page 2, invalidate session and add a new key. " s.invalidate() s['mySecondKey']='mySecondValue' print "session after invalidate: " print s print " " print '<a href ="test1">Page 1, add a key to session</a> ' print '<a href ="test3">Page 3, show session</a> ' return printed ***** file test3.py: ***** s = context.REQUEST.SESSION print "Page 3, show session " print "session : " print s print " " print '<a href ="test1">Page 1</a> ' print '<a href ="test2">Page 2</a> ' return printed

Lotus Notes-like functionality/product in Zope
by Cameron McCloud 24 Nov '04

24 Nov '04

Hi, I'm a big fan of Lotus Notes - we use it in our company (a development shop) for various tracking type of databases (bugs, issues, change control, feature requests...). Notes is quite easy to use and it is easy to design forms and views. I also like Zope and Plone. While Notes is good for very structured information, it isn't great for developing portal type applications. Ideally I'd like to have the best of both worlds - structured forms and views that are easy to construct yet integrated into the Zope environment with all the things that Zope is good for. Has anyone has tried to write a very simple Notes-like product for Zope? Is there anything out there similar? I was thinking about this yesterday and it shouldn't be difficult to design a simple forms editor/viewer and a "view" designer. Can anyone point me in the right direction for going about this? TIA, Cameron.
