I have googled for nearly an hour for a solution to this problem, even though it should be quite simple.
I have a manager user, I wish to overwrite dtml documents in my directory instead of having it create copy_of_file.html is there a way to do this? I am moving files from a development site to a live site.
FTP and moving the whole container are probably your easiest solutions. But: One could, I suppose, try to provide an '_get_id(id)' Python script that did not do the "copy_of_" magic and just returned the id it was given. Dunno if that would work. It might. Another solution is to write a script that deletes the other object first. You could also try to do a '_setObject' directly. --jcc -- "Code generators follow the 80/20 rule. They solve most of the problems, but not all of the problems. There are always features and edge cases that will need hand-coding. Even if code generation could build 100 percent of the application, there will still be an endless supply of boring meetings about feature design." (http://www.devx.com/java/editorial/15511)
