[Zope] manage_addProperty problem....

Thu, 25 Feb 1999 10:46:08 -0500 (EST)

Hi Folks,

	I've got a Product I've been working on... it works great on
1.9.0, but I just tried running it under 1.10.2 and I get the
following error... (on both ZServer, and ZopeHTTPServer):

<html>
<head>
<title>exceptions.AttributeError</title>
</head>
<body>
Sorry, an error occurred.<p>
<!--

So it's something to do with my setting a property of a folder... I check my code

      newMainF = EMarket()  # EMarket is a subclass of folder.....
      newMainF.id = id
      newMainF.title = title
      newMainF.manage_addProperty( 'RegistrationSubject', "Registration Information", 'string')
      newMainF.manage_addProperty( 'RegistrationFrom', "manager@" + gethostname(), 'string')

      self._setObject(id, newMainF)

OK... I comment out the "manage_addProperty" and it works (except the properties are not
defined now!). From the error it sounds like RegistrationSubject is illegal as a 
property name....but if I add such a property to a folder by 'hand' it works fine.

Any ideas?

thanks,
