previously). AFAIR I have never packed my database - an attempt to pack
for 10 days, which caused critical errors, was the first one!
The newest message on zope-dev mentioned that the bug is fixed and will
be removed in 2.2.0. I use 2.2.0 and have never used older version.
Nevertheless, it seems strange to me, that the function containing so

[Zope] Corruption caused by 'Pack'?
After using succesfully zope for some time I decided to cut a bit the database size. So I went to Control Panel/Database and clicked "Pack" for objects older than 10 days. At first everything seemed to work (I returned to the management screen seeing new - smaller - Data.fs size), but when I tried to preview my pages, terrible things happened - most pages turned to be not available, instead of seeing them I saw zope errors with useless descriptions like 'Zope error: error' etc (restarting browser and zope did not helped). Happily, during the process, the Data.fs.old file was created - stopping Zope, removing all Data.fs.sth and overwritting Data.fs with Data.fs.old returned zope instance to the previous state. So I will not click 'Pack' anymore. Has anyone notified similar problems? What could be going on? I use binary zope 2.2.0 distribution for Linux. The database has been created and always used with this distribution (just a few weeks ago) and has never been packed. The time on the machine seem to be correct (although IIRC there happened a moment a few weeks ago when it was for the short time incorrect). I use some custom ZClasses installed as a product developed within 'this' Control Panel/Products. By the way: to decrease database size I consider: - creating new Data.fs served via another (temporary) Zope instance (via just copying Data.fs.in) - exporting everything important from my current instance - importing those files into new instance - copying new Data.fs over the old one (of course each Data.fs copying is performed while both Zope's are shut down).

Yep. You should be able to replicate everything the original constructor code does in your own code. Read The Source, Luke grin. I hate replicating code. I love calling it. Couldn't it be done this way? 4) Can I do something to have ZCatalog PrincipiaSearch (i.e. full text search) to scan some property of my custom ZClass (say property body from propertysheet Basic)? You can add that property name as an index, and construct your search form so the search string is submitted to it (see the Advanced ZCatalog Searching HowTo). Or, you could define your own PrincipiaSearchSource method and return whatever value is appropriate. I *think* you should be able to define this as a method of your ZClass, but I've never tried that. I know it works from python grin. I tried defining DTML Method with name PrincipiaSearchSource and contents dtml-var body (body is my custom property name). Next I clicked 'Update Catalog' in ZCatalog screen. Seems my attempt has been ignored - the amount of objects indexed via PrincipiaSearchSource (according to ZCatalog status screen) has not changed (those object are succesfully indexed on title etc). 5) Can I write index_html method of my custom class so it interpret DTML tags (like dtml-var substitution)? I'm sure you can, but I don't know how grin. But if you are doing that, why not just subclass DTML-Method (or document)? Because I have not done it previously and now I have about 100 objects of this type and do not know how to perform such a change. 6) What you, Zope gurus, would do if you were to find all the DTML Documents in some directory tree and remove them, creating instead Documents (where Document is some subclass of DTML Document) - and keeping the document id, title, contents and properties without change? Write an external method to do all the object creation, property copying, and old object deletion. What about some sample code?

[Zope] HOWTO (but to be improved) - linking to neighbours
[ Below I describe my solution to the problem which seems to me to be fairly frequent. Maybe someone is interested, maybe someone can show me better (faster, shorter) solution ] * Problem The problem: while presenting some page, I would like to automagically add links to 'previous' and 'next' page in the same directory. Say you organize a bunch of HOWTOS and you would like to let the people navigate via 'next' links - without going back go table of contents. * Idea What I really need is to calculate identifiers of 'neighbours' of my page in its container. I do have id of the current page, I can easily got list of all identifiers in the container. So I can just scan this list, find my id and read previous and next element. Transforming it into hyperlink is natural. * Code First I create the following Python Method (could be External Method as well). The method returns tuple (previous_id, next_id) substituting '' if there is no such element (we are at the start or at the end). -- Name: neighbours Parameters: self,myId,allIds Contents: position = 0 for x in range(0, len(allIds)): if allIds[x] == myId: position = x break else: raise 'Internal inconsistency: id ' + str(myId) + ' does not belong to list ' + str(allIds) left = '' right = '' if position 0: left = allIds[position - 1] if position len(allIds) - 1: right = allIds[position + 1] return (left, right) -- Then I add standard_html_footer DTML Method to the directory with my iterated items. I put there sth like that (of course presentation can vary, 'MyHowto' is the metatype of objects I iterate over, as you can see I call original footer after writting my navigational details): - p dtml-let allIds="PARENTS[0].objectIds(['MyHowto'])" myId=id neigh="neighbours(myId,allIds)" table border="0" width="90%" align="center"tr td width="33%" align="left" dtml-if "neigh[0] != ''" a href="dtml-var "neigh[0]""Previous/a dtml-else nbsp; /dtml-if /td td width="33%" align="center" a href="dtml-var howto_index url"Table of Contents/a /td td width="33%" align="right" dtml-if "neigh[1] != ''" a href="dtml-var "neigh[1]""Next/a dtml-else nbsp; /dtml-if /td /tr/table /dtml-let dtml-with "PARENTS[1]" dtml-var standard_html_footer /dtml-with -- (by the way I do not know why I need 'myId=id' in let - but removing it and putting id on the neighbours parameters list does not work) * Unsolved problems There are two important unsolved problems: - efficiency - I perform linear scan which can be expensive if my directory contains a lot of objects (I do not know good method to solve it - I would need some help from Folder class) - order - if I need to present my objects in some order other than default, I would need to sort allIds in some way (probably I would need youse objectValues instead of objectIds) * Minor tricks The python method I wrote is generic, I use the same method for two different folders. In fact I worked around the order problem for the very simple case - presenting everything in reverse order. I just exchanged neigh[0] and neigh[1] in standard_html_footer. -- Serwis nie tylko mieszkaniowy: http://www.mk.w.pl | | You have the right to say how long each requirement will take you to | implement, and to revise estimates given experience.

[Zope] Best way to subclass DTML Document and some other ZClasses questions
I decided to subclass DTML Document and (using ZClass) create my own document class (in fact I wanted all my documents to possess some standard properties and prompt for them on initialization and also to be CatalogAware). I succeeded (everything more-or-less works), but I still have some doubts: 1) How can I set standard DTML Document properties (title!) from my constructor? I created constructor form and constructor method, I succesfully prompt for and set all my properties but I do not know how to set properties belonging to DTML Document. 2) Can I do anything to have single property screen which would behave as original DTML Document property screen but present both original properties and properties belonging to my custom property sheet? 3) Can I influence property editing screens (what I want is to increase some edit boxes)? I created also some classes which do not inherit DTML Document or DTM method. I have questions about such a configuration: 4) Can I do something to have ZCatalog PrincipiaSearch (i.e. full text search) to scan some property of my custom ZClass (say property body from propertysheet Basic)? 5) Can I write index_html method of my custom class so it interpret DTML tags (like dtml-var substitution)? And one question after the whole mess. I migrated my (fairly small so far) website from DTML Documents to my custom document class - and I did it manually. But I would not like to perform similar operation manually if the site contained 500 or 5000 pages. 6) What you, Zope gurus, would do if you were to find all the DTML Documents in some directory tree and remove them, creating instead Documents (where Document is some subclass of DTML Document) - and keeping the document id, title, contents and properties without change? 7) And what if you were to change something a little - say detect that some property belongs to custom propertysheet and put it there instead on putting on standard DTML Document propertysheet?

Re: [Zope] request for advice
I started with popen2 and friends.. but that didn't seem to play well with Zope... probably mixing processes and threads is a bad idea... I dunno. Anyway I'm not sure of the best way to do this in Windows. Of course, ulitmately Shane Hathaway's idea of having a separate 'mini cvs servelet' process running that zope communicates with via tcp/ip could be the best way to add security and platform independence, but it sounds like a fair amount of extra complexity to me, esp when I don't have a lot of 'free time' to implement such a strategy. Any thoughts about this? Just the redirect idea: WinCVS (www.wincvs.org) uses some method of embedding CVS inside Windows application (IIRC they even separate CVS access methods into some DLL). The application is open source, maybe there is some idea to borrow? Warning: to say the truth, I have never read WinCVS sources.

Check whether Tuxedo client works in multithreaded program before further attempts (I do not know how does it look now, I used Tuxedo ~ 2 years ago). -- Marcin.Kasperski | Most of the bad things that can happen to a project @softax.com.pl | are the result of miscommunication.

[Zope] Downloadable Zope reference and products?
Is it possible to download in some way complete zope reference and zope products? In case anyone is interested why do I need it: I have fast internet link at work.

[Zope] Problem with ZCatalog output and SiteAccess (with workaround)
In short: ZCatalog getpath method returns sth. like '/public/the/path/to/found/object' It causes the problem when one uses SiteAccess to modify URL paths (let's say I use Apache mod_proxy to redirect http://my.host/zope to http://my.host:8080/public and set SiteAccess in public zope dir to return http://my.host/zope). URL's generated from ZCatalog searches via 'tutorial way': a href="dtml-var "catalog.getpath(data_record_id_)"" does not work. I get sth like http://my.host/public/the/path/to/found/object (and Apache claims no /public directory on server). The problem can be solved via via converting fully specified link returned by getpath to relative link (in most cases it is enough to split this string on slash, remove 2 leading items and join it again) - then I get correct URL without SiteAccess intervention. Code snippet from zcatalog search result form: dtml-comment This does not work with SiteAccess/proxying a href="dtml-var "catalog.getpath(data_record_id_)"" /dtml-comment dtml-let page_path="catalog.getpath(data_record_id_)" page_split="_.string.split(page_path,'/')" final_path="_.string.join(page_split[2:],'/')" a href="dtml-var "final_path"" /dtml-let dtml-var title/a This is rather workaround than clean solution. I can imagine two 'true' solutions: - patching ZCatalog to return relative URLs only - patching SiteAccess to do something with '/such/urls' (is it possible?) -- Marcin.Kasperski | You have the right to change your mind, to substitute @softax.com.pl | functionality, and to change priorities.

[Zope] How can I proxy from apache to zope and keep source host info?
I configure 'apache as frontent do zope'. Most things work as expected but I found serious limitation: if I pass request from apache to zope via mod_proxy (or mod_rewrite [P]), zope sees all requests as coming from localhost (I specified http://localhost:8080/ as zope address, in case I specify http://my.host:8080 I would get my.host as source address - the problem would be the same). Does there exist any solution to this problem different than using zope.cgi? -- Marcin.Kasperski | Communication takes place between people, documents @softax.com.pl | are secondary.

[Zope] Extra info: Can not import XML export
I made some experiments and found, that removing from the generated XML file all tags named klass, state and object (together with their contents) changes something - loading takes longer and is finished with different error: Error Type: AttributeError Error Value: 'string' object has no attribute '__dict__' I can not find word __dict__ anywhere in my xml file, maybe some of Base64 encoded object contain such a thing... My main suspicion is that I have problem with importing ZCatalog objects -- Marcin.Kasperski | As a slow-witted human being I have a very small head @softax.com.pl | and I had better learn to live with it and to respect Marcin.Kasperski | my limitations, rather than to try to ignore them. @bigfoot.com | (Dijskstra) ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
