urllib2 timeout problem inside Zope thread
by Thierry Florac 27 Jul '08

27 Jul '08

Hi, I'm currently using urllib2 to get an external URL from an internal "cron like" Zope thread. The loaded page has to manage administrative tasks before I can start other tasks into Zope internal database ; it returns partial chunks of data, but globally takes more than 20 minutes to run. Problem : when loading the page via a simple Python console, I set socket.setdefaulttimeout() and everything is OK ; but when launching the same command from inside Zope thread, I get a socket.timeout error. So my question : as I'd really prefer to keep this method call inside an internal Zope thread, how can I prevent this timeout ?

Unrestricted threads
by Thierry Florac 25 Jul '08

25 Jul '08

Hi, I use Zope-2.9.9. I need to create custom "cron like" threads in an application to handle administrative tasks. Global setup of these threads is already OK. So my question is : how can I setup these threads so that they can handle database objects in an unrestricted way (eventually throught an authentication mecanism) ?

Hi, (Apologies for the cross-post to those also subscribed to the python-uk list) We're looking for a python developer to join our team and work on large open-source web projects for leading clients. We are a fast-growing web development company based in London, specialising in usable and accessible open-source web solutions for the not-for-profit and public sector. Requirements: + learn new skills and technologies quickly; + enjoy the challenge of analysing and solving complex problems; + knowledge of website production, including SQL and HTML/CSS/JS; + familiarity with linux/shell/version control etc. Ideally, you will have some experience of web development and production, and be able to demonstrate projects that you have worked on (not necessarily in python).

zexp import fails from linux to windows due to image file paths
by Richard Ettema 22 Jul '08

22 Jul '08

Hi, I have an old zope based site that was hosted on a linux machine that was exported to a zexp. i am trying to import it onto a windows machine to fix up and upgrade the site. the windows machine is setup wth the identical products etc. The problem is the image file paths for linux within the zexp do not match the new windows setup. I dont need the images imported, i'm wanting to access the main site content and users. I dont have access to a linux machine anymore, so i'm stuck with windows for development. Is there a way of getting the import procedure to ignore the errors and continue the import (i.e. any hints on how to modify the zope code)? Or is there a way to edit the zexp to do a search & remove/replace of the file path names so the import completes with no file path details? Any ideas greatly appreciated as I have searched around with no luck on answering this myself. Thanks

MySQL reconnects on zope application level
by Jonas 17 Jul '08

17 Jul '08

Hello, On several zope 2.10.6 instances we discovered issues with database connections to MySQL. Apparently MySQL seems to not automaticly reconnect connections with a timeout since version 5.0.3 due to issues with transactions. Until now, mysql-python was patched to restore that behaviour to automatically reconnect timeouted connections, but that is not the case anymore either. So from now on the database reconnects need to be done from zope applications on their own. Unfortunately the ZMySQLda adapter by Andy Dustman doesn't implement such a functionality. I cannot imagine that we are the only ones who discover this problem. Is there an easy way to implement automatic reconnects for Z MySQL Database Connections on zope application level? greetings, and thanks in advance, jonas

TALES expression
by Garito 16 Jul '08

16 Jul '08

Hi! Please consider this TALES expression: <div class="DataPrevista" tal:content='here/getDataInici | string: nosta' /> If I try this other: <div tal:content='string:${here/getDataInici}' /> the result is <div>None</div> Then the first one will render the alternate expression isn't it? Then with it renders <div class="DataPrevista" /> ? Thanks! -- Mis Cosas http://blogs.sistes.net/Garito Zope Smart Manager http://blogs.sistes.net/Garito/670
