Issues with programmatically deleting objects
Hi All, I am new to Zope, using Zope 2.7 and wrote a "Script Python" to delete objects programatically(used for bulk delete). parent.manage_delObjects(id) After I execute the script using the Test button of the ZMI, the objects are getting deleted properly. But in the Undo tab, I am not able to see the transaction history (/mysite/path/manage_delObjects by *niv)* When I tried to add transaction.commit() the ZMI is asking for credentials. 1. How do I get the transaction recorded using Script Python? 2. Are there any other ways to achieve the same? 3. Another issue is, when I tried to invoke the delete Script Python from an external python script using xmlrpc it threw a xmlrpclib.ProtocolError 401 Unauthorized Error. Is it because there is a manage_delObjects call? Regs, Niv
Hi Niv, Probably, in your Undo tab, you do see an item which corresponds to the execution of your test script. Because this script executed the manage_delObjects() method, you need to undo that entry to undo the deletion. As I do not have any experience with xmlrpclib, I can just give you a general pointer about debugging your code. If you remove the manage_delObjects command from the script, and execute it via your external script, does it still throw the same error? If not, it is probably the call to manage_delObjects that is causing the problem. Also check the error traceback in the Zope error_log to see what threw the error.
