In 2.6.2, 2.6.4, and 2.7.0 I get the "missing docstring" error:

"The object at http://localhost:8080/foo.jpg/tag has an empty or missing docstring. Objects must have a docstring to be published."

I have seen this message being raised in many places "falsely", at least in Zope 2.7.0+. I haven't found the cause. It doesn't mean what it says it means in these cases, but it does always seem to mean that your security is fucked up somehow and what you're trying to do isn't allowed.

I don't see how *my* security, per se, could be fscked up in this case... I get the error even logged in as Manager, and even if the image has all permissions for anonymous. time for a pdb session... so far all I've found is that, indeed, app.some_folder.some_image.tag has no docstring! Bizarre because I can see it in the sources. It appears that the error means something pretty close to what it says it means :-P More digging to follow ... -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com Look!
