Hi, all, First at all, thx for your tips. Here is install.py from Zope3.0.0c2, but I have no idea that how to modify it: #! /usr/bin/env python # # THIS IS A GENERATED FILE. DO NOT EDIT THIS DIRECTLY. # Add the Support/ directory to sys.path to get our support code: # import os import sys try: __file__ except NameError: # Python 2.2.x does not have __file__ for scripts. __file__ = sys.argv[0] here = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)) support_dir = os.path.join(here, 'Support') support_dir = os.path.normpath(support_dir) if os.path.isdir(support_dir): sys.path.insert(0, support_dir) import zpkgsetup.setup context = zpkgsetup.setup.SetupContext( 'ZopeX3', '3.0.0c2', __file__) context.initialize() context.setup() ~ "David Siedband" <david(a)calteg.org> 1762EF8E-1A87-11D9-9104-000D93ACB684(a)calteg.org... > You need to modify install.py so it doesn't insert "tune=pentium4" > > HTH > -- > David > > > On Oct 9, 2004, at 9:22 PM, <chouchen(a)126.com> wrote: > > > Hi, all > > I want to take the taste of Zope3, so to install it in Fedora Core > > release 2's server, but I didn't get success.

Errors while running the Thumbnails example code
by Vlad Berditchevskiy 10 Oct '04

10 Oct '04

Hello, i'm trying to run the example code from "The Zope Book": http://www.plope.com/Books/2_7Edition/ScriptingZope.stx#1-5 However, there are several errors. The first error that I get is the following: ,---- | Error Type: NameError | Error Value: global name 'Image' is not defined `---- I looked into the PIL tutorial and found out that they use 'import Image' instead of 'import PIL'. I changed the import statement this way, and this error disappeared, however I got another error, which I cannot explain: ,---- | Error Type: AttributeError | Error Value: StringIO instance has no attribute 'startswith' | | Traceback (innermost last): | | * Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 101, in publish | * Module ZPublisher.mapply, line 88, in mapply | * Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 39, in call_object | * Module Shared.DC.Scripts.Bindings, line 306, in __call__ | * Module Shared.DC.Scripts.Bindings, line 343, in _bindAndExec | * Module Products.PythonScripts.PythonScript, line 323, in _exec | * Module None, line 2, in makeThumbnails | <PythonScript at /Examples/makeThumbnails used for /Examples/Images> | Line 2 | * Module Products.ExternalMethod.ExternalMethod, line 232, in __call__ | __traceback_info__: (('4,7-liter.jpg',), {}, (200,)) | * Module /opt/zope/instance/Extensions/Thumbnail.py, line 26, in makeThumbnail | * Module Image, line 1556, in open | * Module App.ImageFile, line 36, in __init__ | * Module posixpath, line 60, in join | | AttributeError: StringIO instance has no attribute 'startswith' `---- This happens in the following line: ,---- | original_file=StringIO(str(original_image.data)) `---- The most strange thing about it is that if I run the following code outside of zope, everything works: ,---- | import Image | import StringIO | | fp = open("20.jpg") | buffer = fp.read() | im = Image.open(StringIO.StringIO(buffer)) `---- To be sure, I tested this code in zope exactly as above (so that the file is loaded from disk, not from Zope), but got the same error. Any ideas, what's going wrong? Thanks in advance! -- \ / vlad(a)hashbang.de \/lad http://www.hashbang.de

A couple of questions from a newbie
by Leif K-Brooks 09 Oct '04

09 Oct '04

Hello, everyone. I've been reading up on Zope, and it's quite interesting; I still have a couple questions that The Zope Book doesn't answer, though. First of all, is there any reason to use a relational database instead of the ZODB? I would think that the ZODB would get bad performance when filled with too many user-created objects, like forum posts; is that true? Also, is it better for a Python script to call a page template or vice-versa? I would think that it would be better for the template to call the script so that other scripts and templates can use the script's output, and so that it can be cached without caching the template's header and footer which might be user-specific, but The Zope Book usually has the script calling the template.

Odd sessioning issues with ExUserFolder.
by Alec Munro 09 Oct '04

09 Oct '04

Hi List, I'm using ExUserFolder, with zope as the authentication source, and MySQL as the properties source. I have a custom login form, which calls a script called process_login, an exerpt of which follows: from AccessControl import getSecurityManager request = container.REQUEST result = container.acl_users.validate(request=request) name = getSecurityManager().getUser().getUserName() This seems to work fine, except in rare circumstances. I'm unsure exactly of the details of those circumstances, but what happens is that sometimes when a user logs in, they are redirected to the standard ExUserFolder login form, with a message similar to "session expired, please log in". This also generates an event in the error log, typed "LoginRequired". My suspicion is that this happens to users who have logged in before, and what is happening is that it checks their cookie, finds it expired, and rather than processing the login as new, invalidates the entire request, and redirects them to the standard login form. Any clues? Thanks, Alec Munro

I've been given a .zexp file by a helpful individual which may sort out a problem I have. Unfortunately I'm too dumb to understand what I do with such a file. Can anyone suggest what it is and how I can make use of it? -- John

external editor woes
by xn 08 Oct '04

08 Oct '04

Hello all, I seem to be having this error in trying to use the external editor: ++ If you are using IE and you receive an error from the helper app like "FATAL ERROR [Errno 2] No such file or directory...." it means that IE is refusing to save the temp file to disk. This is usually caused by a cache control header such as "Cache-Control: no-cache". To use external editor with IE you must prevent this header from being set. Some versions of CookieCrumber inject this header for all authenticated requests. You can fix this by changing the CC configuration on its properties tab in the ZMI to use another cache control value such as "private". ++ I can't seem to find the place to change it specifically. Can someone hold my hand on this one and point me to the right spot? All/any help would be most appreciated. Thanks. N.B., I don't know if this adds any info, but i just tried to use the external editor via zope.org to edit my "frontpage" and i get the same error. Hurm. Maybe it is not my installation at all... Thanks, Christian

Problem with Python Script in RAM Cache
by Peter Baeuerle 08 Oct '04

08 Oct '04

I wanted to cache a Python script in the ZOPE ram cache manager, but it did not work. I did hear that "RAM cache manager can only cache picklable objects". I do not understand, what that means. I heard that a dictionary would be a "picklable" object. My script returns a sequence (actually the results from a search in the PLONE catalog by the searchresults method). Does that mean, I would have to change my python script so that it would return a dictionary instead of a sequence to be able to be cached by a ram cache manager? Can anybody help me? Thanks Peter Baeuerle

Fail-safe redundancy policies for Zope
by Ausum Studio 08 Oct '04

08 Oct '04

What are the best, or most used fail-safe redundancy practices suitable to Zope? More in detail, I'm working on a Zope-based system that will store the data inside the ZODB, and one of the design requests is that given an unrecoverable hardware crash, the system could continue running using a mirror installation with the latest backup (not later than half an hour or even less.) APE looks like the way to go since it allows the use of standard backup software, but you may have tried other possible solutions for a problem like this. According to your experience how would you accomplish it? Thanks in advance, Ausum

Zope instance restarting itself
by Gitte Wange 08 Oct '04

08 Oct '04

Hello, I have a Zope-2.6.1 instance running which behaves very weird. It restarts itself :-( First I discovered that the Data.fs truncated and restarted Zope. I then used fsrecovery.py on the Data.fs and it removed a bad transaction. Then I started Zope with the new Data.fs file. Now the instans restarts at the same time but without the error - infact withput any error. Any hints on how I can debug this? Greetings, Gitte Wange

Wie wandele ich eine Zahl in ein datum um. Ich möchte eine Übersichtsseite für eGroupware auf meinem Zope-Server bereitstellen. In der MySQL liegt das Datum in einem int(11)-Feld gespeichert. Ein Beispiel 1095780422. Wie kann ich hieraus ein Datum ermitteln?
