Hello! I wrote a simple script to pack Data.fs on a regular basis. It is very simple, actually, just urllib.urllretrieve("http://my.zope/Control_Panel/Database/manage_pack?days:float=3") (a little bit harder than that, but I did it) Now I am trying to achieve the same with XML-RPC. No luck. How can I pass "days" parameter? server = xmlrpclib.Server("http://my.zope", BasicAuthTransport(login, password)) server.Control_Panel.Database.manage_pack(3) does not work - Zope returns an error abou invalid value, server.Control_Panel.Database.manage_pack(days=3) does not run at all - args expected to be a list, not a hash...
