You should probably try to give your mails more helpful subject lines, something like "adding acl_users and databases" would have been great in this case ;-) jacintha menezes wrote:
1. I have some dtml tags to add new acl_users sent by Daniel .But role doesn't get assigned even if i specify it. Kindly let me know, is there anyway by which when i add an acl_user, role as manager is taken automatically. tags used are as follows :
<dtml-call "REQUEST.set('name', login_name)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('password', password)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('confirm', confirm)"> <dtml-call "REQUEST.set('roles', roles)"> <dtml-call "acl_users.manage_users(submit='Add', REQUEST=REQUEST)">
Not really sure what you're trying to do here. It soudns like you're trying to add new users to an acl_users folder. Not sure why you need all those REQUEST.set's, why not just pass them as keyword arguments to manage_users?
2. Is there any other reliable database which we can use.
MySQL, Oracle, PostGres... all have adapters for Zope. You could, of course, use the ZODB, but that's a slightly different kettle of fish. cheers, Chris PS: Please email the list and CC me in rather than just emailing me, there are many more people on the list who will have more knowledge than me in the areas you're asking about.
