RE: [Zope] WebDrive V6 (&5?) and Zope
by Tim Edwards 26 May '04

We're using it successfuly to allow users to upload documents to our company Intranet. Our Intranet has > 10,000 docs (well over a gigabytes worth) and a handful of users maintaining them and adding new ones. They do this via webdrive. Some have v5 (we havent seen a reason to upgrade them yet) and some have v6 (they got new PCs and we had to reinstall webdrive so we just used v6). We have had some problems - for some reason some docs simply don't upload or download very well (and no its not because the filename had an '&' or something in it) but overall it works extremely well. We're running Zope 2.6.2 -----Original Message----- From: zope-bounces(a)zope.org [mailto:zope-bounces@zope.org]On Behalf Of Paul Browning Sent: Wednesday, 26 May 2004 3:35 PM To: Zope List Subject: [Zope] WebDrive V6 (&5?) and Zope Question: Is anyone using Webdrive V5 or V6 successfully with Zope? Either I'm missing something obvious or WebDrive V6 (and V5?) has become broken with Zope. Everything used to work for me with WebDrive V3 and V4. The following observations were made against Zope 2.7.0. The problem: You connect via WebDrive but you can't see any objects in the right hand pane of Windows Explorer. This happens for both anonymous and authenticated users (I even briefly granted the anonymous users every Zope permission - still no success). If you Show Monitor in WebDrive you see a problem: Connecting to http://zopebox.bris.ac.uk ...

I think perhaps he is talking about the main page of the zope server he just installed. If you had read the first part of the zope book, then you would have seen that you only have to type on your browser: http://localhost:8080 To access the manage interface, type: http://localhost:8080/manage To access the documentation that comes with your zope, go to: /path/to/your/zope/doc To access the fine manual, go to: http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Books/ZopeBook/ I adviced you to read the book and some of the documentation files that come with zope, then come back if you have questions.

Yes, documentation is pretty scarce when it comes to best practice caching. It seems that caching is more of an art than a science. What we are doing is the following: Define a page template 'cache_Calendar' and put it in your custom skin folder (or whereever): <tal:calendar define="dummy python:request.set('anchor_url', request.URL0); dummy python:request.set('anchor_method', '');"> <metal:getcal metal:use-macro="here/portlet_calendar/macros/portlet" /> </tal:calendar> And then associate this template to the RAMCache. REQUEST variables should be: b_start month year Then in your right_slots, you would use: portal/cache_Calendar Instead of: here/portlet_calendar/macros/portlet >> For use with Apache and Squid where there is HTTP caching going on, then >> yes, this change is necessary.

DTML2ZPT
by Maciej Lopacinski 25 May '04

25 May '04

Hi, I'm pretty new to Zope technology. My question is pretty simple. I want to use my product which uses dtml in pylone so I want to rewrite all DTML stuff to ZPT. I found good webresource about it but not all ise clear for me, here is my problem: // dtml <dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('Content-Type', 'text/html; charset=utf-8')"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('img_url', images.absolute_url())"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('image_db_url', image_db.absolute_url())"> <dtml-call session_init> // end first line is pretty easy to change in second and third images amd image_db are local fs instances session_init is DTML Method, Questions: 1. How should it look in ZPT? 2. In folowing scripts I use <dtml-call "REQUEST.get('img_url')"> or something like this, how should I use it now in ZPT? That's all. Good webpage about dtml2zpt conversion can be found at: http://www.zope.org/Members/peterbe/DTML2ZPT Maciej Lopacinski <hamster(a)mat.uni.torun.pl> UMK::WMiI::Informatyka

zombies and popenN()
by Dennis Allison 25 May '04

25 May '04

I use htmldoc to create pdf docs out of Zope. Basically I construct the html page I want to print, and use popen3() to write the html to the htmldoc program and fetch the pdf file and error file (if any). Most of the time it works fine. But occasionally the pdf is produced, no error message produced, and a Zombie process hanging around. There seems to be some correlation with the first print operation for a session creating a zombie. The python collector has several bugs related to the interaction of threads and popenN(), but it's unclear if they apply or how one might work around the problem? or even localize the problem? I suppose the simplest workaround would be to manage the pipes and htmldoc process myself rather than delegating it to popenN().
