Put the script in an External Method is the easiest solution most likely. Basically what's happening is that some python modules are considered unsafe so you can't access them directly inside of zope without changing zope's module permissions. The easiest work around is to put these methods into an external method. Hope that helps On Sat, 2003-09-06 at 18:09, Jack Coates wrote:
Hi,
I'm fair-to-middlin' with Perl and have no Python knowledge. I'm trying to do a Python script which grabs some information from a telnet interface on the same machine:
import sys import telnetlib
HOST = "localhost"
tn = telnetlib.Telnet(HOST, 9090)
tn.write("title ?\n") tn.write("album ?\n") tn.write("artist ?\n") tn.write("exit\n")
print tn.read_all()
That works from the command line (well, I'll be figuring out how to regex-prettify the output later), but doesn't work from Zope: I've enabled import of sys and telnetlib, but it now pops up auth dialogs repeatedly. Hitting cancel makes it say " Error Value: You are not allowed to access write in this context".
What am I doing wrong? I'm open to making it an external method, but when I tried to do so it quit working from the command line.
