I am trying to make a copy of an object in my ZODB using manage_copyObjects and manage_pasteObjects. I have code like this:
import Zope app=Zope.app() x=app.manage_copyObjects([app['getad'].id]) app.manage_pasteObjects(x)
"manage_pasteObjects" (more precisely, "_verifyObjectPaste" performs its own security check, even if called in an unrestricted environment.
As in your context, there is not user, the check fails.
I see two options:
* modify Zope's code (e.g. by adding a new "manage_pasteObjects_woCheck" without this check)
* create a request object with authentication information, perform a "traverse" on this object (this will set the user) and then call "manage_pasteObjects" on the traverse to object.
Thanks for the quick reply. Do you have an example of how one would do this, as I cannot quite picture in my head how this should be approached? Thanks again, Noel.
