[Zope-PTK] Copying users to CMF

[Jens Vagelpohl]

priya,

i have attached a different copy_users.py file for you to use. replace the
current one in your Extensions directory with this one and don't forget to
hit "edit" to activate the changes in the "copy_users" external method in
your ZODB. please let me know how it works for you.

this new method works for me in a 2.3.0-based install and should work for
you as well.

background:
the traceback you see is because after adding a user to the target acl_users
folder zope tried to redirect you to that acl_users' management screen.
using not "manage_users" but the underlying "_addUser" method instead
allowed me to specify "REQUEST=None" and prevent this redirect.

why this did not fail in 2.3.0 before i am not sure... ;)

jens
