You can't do that now, but you're right that it is a desirable feature, and probably pretty easy. I've added a proposal here: https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/schooltool/+spec/web-server-control > Is it possible to use Schooltool as a Zope product, install it in the > Products directory like other Zope related products? No, SchoolTool is a Zope 3 application, and Zope 3 applications are incompatible with Zope 2. > In the Zope2 setup there is a possibility to use a virtualhostmonster object > in order to facilitate rewriting uri's, is it possible to do that in Zope3? Yes. Instructions for doing so should be in the README. > Also i see a lot of ZODB.POSException.ConflictErrors, and was wondering if > those are python2.4 related or perhaps still an artifact of the current > development issues? I think this is an underlying ZODB issue, which does not actually result in a loss of data. I believe it means that the transaction is backed out and tried again.

It is possible to use a database adapter in SchoolTool (and Zope 3 in general), although nobody has tried it (yet). You can't do it through the web, so it would take some programming. > Why exactly is twisted used? Couldn't a database backend do the same? Twisted is used as a server, so it is a different role entirely. > Well, a lot of questions as you can see. > I'm testing schooltool to see if i can use it to develop a specific > (web)interface for schooladministration. Ah. I'd be interested in knowing more about your context. --Tom _______________________________________________ Schooltool mailing list [email protected] http://lists.schooltool.org/mailman/listinfo/schooltool
