To try to isolate the problem, why don't you try to execute the script directly with Python. E.g.: python WebClient.py If there is a syntax error in the script, Python should point directly to the error. -- Loren

hi zopers,

This howto (Using ZClient to Access Another webserver) by lstaffor explains how to connect to another webserver (for instance). i did exactly as explained on: http://www.zope.org/Members/lstaffor/ZClientMethod but when i try to add the external method in the web management interface i get this traceback:

<traceback> Traceback (innermost last): File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 214, in publish_module File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 179, in publish File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.1-src/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 201, in zpublisher_exception_hook File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 165, in publish File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: manage_addExternalMethod) File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.1-src/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 102, in call_object (Object: manage_addExternalMethod) File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.1-src/lib/python/Products/ExternalMethod/Exter nalMethod.py, line 126, in manage_addExternalMethod File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.1-src/lib/python/Products/ExternalMethod/Exter nalMethod.py, line 166, in __init__ (Object: webClient) File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.1-src/lib/python/Products/ExternalMethod/Exter nalMethod.py, line 185, in manage_edit (Object: webClient) File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.1-src/lib/python/Products/ExternalMethod/Exter nalMethod.py, line 194, in getFunction (Object: webClient) File /usr/local/Zope-2.0.1-src/lib/python/App/Extensions.py, line 204, in getObject (Info: ('/usr/local/Zope-2.0.1-src/Extensions/WebClient.py', 'WebClient')) SyntaxError: (see above </traceback>

1/ Is there something wrong with the source given on the website? (i did an exact copy paste, because i don't know pyhton yet. 'yet' because i will learn it, but now i have to finish this project rapidly otherwise my boss will finish me:-) 2/ Does anyone have the WebClient.py source of lstaffor?
