Hi, I finally found where my problem comes from ; I noticed that the exception response headers was containing references to the file which raised the exception : DateTime.py, line 655 !! After looking at the code and making a few more tests, I finally found that Zope don't accept 'None' or empty values for 'date' properties : you have to enter a valid date for date properties !! So my new question is simple : as en empty value is significant in several cases for this product, how can I handle empty date properties, without using string properties which will be converted as date in internal properties ??

Looking at the code, I can't see any place in the standard manage_editProperties where string slicing/indexing takes place. My guess would be that it *is* one of your methods kicking up this error.
As I said in my previous message, my big problem is that I don't use any custom method in this case : it's the standard "manage_editProperties" method which is used !! So I suppose that it's my properties definition or contents which raise this exception, but I really can't see anything "special" in them... :
_properties = IF_OrderedObjectManager.IF_OrderedObjectManager._properties + \ ( { 'id':'owner', 'type':'string', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'creator', 'type':'string', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'updater', 'type':'string', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'editor', 'type':'string', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'publisher', 'type':'string', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'creation_time', 'type':'date', 'mode':'' }, { 'id':'creation_date', 'type':'date', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'update_time', 'type':'date', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'edition_time', 'type':'date', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'publication_time', 'type':'date', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'first_pub_date', 'type':'date', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'last_pub_date', 'type':'date', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'description', 'type':'text', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'remarques', 'type':'text', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'keywords', 'type':'tokens', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'commentaire', 'type':'text', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'moral_author', 'type':'string', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'physical_author', 'type':'string', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'updaters', 'type':'selection', 'mode':'w', 'select_variable':'getUpdatersList' }, { 'id':'category', 'type':'selection', 'mode':'w', 'select_variable':'getCategories' }, { 'id':'status', 'type':'selection', 'mode':'w', 'select_variable':'getStatusList' }, { 'id':'private', 'type':'boolean', 'mode':'w' }, { 'id':'visible', 'type':'boolean', 'mode':'w' } )
IF_OrderedObjectManager is another class that I use as parent for other inherited subclasses, without any problem...
I've also tried to add a "manage_editProperties(self, REQUEST)" method in my custom class, with just "return REQUEST" as content, but the exception is raised before the method is called, so I think that the problem is not at the class level, but probably at the Publisher level, when the HTTP request is handled... How can I try to debug this ???
