[Zope] Help!!! Zope won't start -- StorageSystemError

[Dan Gaibel]

Hi folks,

This is my first post to this list and I'm desperate for help. I'm running 
Zope 2.6.1 with Python 2.1.3. My Zope instance died today and won't come 
back. When I try to start it, I get:


2005-08-27T20:58:15 PANIC(300) z2 Startup exception
Traceback (innermost last):

At first I deleted Data.fs.lock and cannot find any process that would 
suggest zope is running. I've also played with renaming various .pid files 
in hopes of an answer. I'm stumped and in very hot water right now. Any 
help or guidance would be very appreciated.


Thanks,

Dan

Can you run 'lsof' against your Data.fs?  or run 'killall python' (not
as root, unless Zope is the only process which might be running Python).


Thanks for the quick response! lsof gives me nothing, and I still have 
trouble when all python processes are killed. Even after a reboot. I 
thought it might be a corrupt Data.fs or something, but I can get it to 
start on another instance of zope. Could it be some lock file that I don't 
know about? I'm stumped.


Thanks,

Dan

[Zope] Zope Managed Server

[Dan Gaibel]

Hello Folks,

I'm interested in finding a company that will do monthly managed zope
hosting. We're looking for a dedicated machine. I know that Zope Corp does
this and it is quite expensive. I wonder if anyone has had any experiences
with such a service.

Any advice is highly appreciated, and I apologize if this list is an
inappropriate venue to pose such a question.

Thanks!

Dan

Re: [Zope] Zope Managed Server

[Dan Gaibel]

Thanks to all for the advice. It feels like I'm better off with a
dedicated server on which I can install and configure zope myself. I
wonder now about what type of machine is ideal. Eventually I hope to be
serving many (possibly hundreds) small websites via VHM. I'm sure that I
need plenty of memory, but what about CPU? Are there any statistics or
recommended configurations out there? How can I know what sort of load a
particular server will be able to withstand?

Thanks for your help!

Dan

 Servelocity at

 http://www.servelocity.net/

 are also very good. You can rent your own dedicated server and install
 what
 you want on it. Excellent support and service.

 Amazing service and support. A great team of open source and Zope

  I use Zettai.  Can't complain at all.   Even though I use virtual host

 better

  The best of all worlds is to at least co-host your server.  But thats
  more over-head for the developer.  Zettai support is excellent.
  (although they do get cranky if you lean too much on them).
 
  I just checked out the iMeme site - and they may be pretty good ( jcc
  wouldn't recommend them otherwise) but their presentation is
 gawd-awful
  and not confidence inspiring.

[Zope] Virtual Host Monster

[Dan Gaibel]

Hi Folks,

I want to use Zope for web hosting, and I wonder about the Virtual  
Host Monster. Is it reasonable to think that I could host say,  
200-300 small sites (different domains, low traffic) in one instance  
of zope 2.8? I'm planning on a dedicated server with 2GB of RAM. Does  
this seem feasible? Any advice on how to test something like this?


Thanks,

[Zope] FTP and Firewall

[Dan Gaibel]

Hi,

I'm using Zope 2.8.6 with Python 2.3.5 and have found that when I FTP  
into zope, I am unable to list the contents of the directory I am in.  
It seems that logging in is no problem. Could this be a problem with  
my firewall? Has anyone seen this before? We are using port 8021  
rather than the usual port 21. Could this be the issue?


Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

[Zope] Trouble with PIL and Zope 2.8

[Dan Gaibel]

Hello group,

I am having problems with my PIL installation and I wonder if anyone  
has any ideas..


After what looked like a successful install of PIL 1.1.5 I am getting  
errors like encoder jpeg not available even though it looked like  
jpeg support compiled just fine in setup. Perhaps there is a special  
way to install PIL for use in Zope? Any advice is much appreciated.


What I'm working with:

Fedora Core 4
Python 2.3.5
Zope 2.8.6
PIL 1.1.5

Thanks!

[Zope] Storing sensitive data

[Dan Gaibel]

Hi all,

I am wondering about storing credit card and personal information in  
Zope 2.8.6 (with Python 2.3.5.) Is there a simple way to secure data  
with SSL/https without having to run Apache? I found ZServerSSL and I  
wonder if that will be the answer. Has anyone used the product with  
Zope 2.8? I am a newbie with an SSL certificate and I frankly don't  
know what to do with it.


Thanks in advance for any help!

Best,

Dan

[Zope] Question about Upgrading Zope and OS X Server

[Dan Gaibel]

Greetings,

I have recently inherited the responsibility of supporting a fairly complex web 
server running Zope 2.8.6 on Python 2.3.5. This configuration is currently on a 
Linux (Fedora Core) server and I would like very much to migrate to OS X Server 
Snow Leopard. It also seems to me that I should consider upgrading Zope to a 
more current release while I'm at it. We heavily use MySQL and associated 
products, LocalFS, and the Python Imagining Library. We have a variety of 
ZClass homegrown products as well.

I know that I'm in for a headache no matter what, but I wonder if any of you 
folks could point me in the right direction or offer advice on the situation. 
Is it crazy to jump from 2.8.6 to 2.12? Does anyone use OS X Server for Zope? 
Is this migration a mistake? Any pitfalls I should be looking out for?

Many thanks,

Dan

Re: [Zope] Question about Upgrading Zope and OS X Server

[Dan Gaibel]

Good advice here, thanks! Is it a big mistake to stay at Zope 2.8.6? The server 
has been very stable for years, apparently. What are the downfalls of not 
upgrading all the way past 2.10?

Re: [Zope] Question about Upgrading Zope and OS X Server

[Dan Gaibel]

So OS X Server Snow Leopard comes with Python 2.6.1. Is there any  
reason to think that this Python version would cause problems with  
Zope 2.8.6? We have had nice stability with Python 2.3.5. Either way,  
is Zope 2.8.7 a significantly better choice than 2.8.6?

 Dan - we are using 64bit Zope 2.8.7 and python 2.4 with no problems

 I can't think of any huge problems with staying on Zope 2.8.6/7 era. I
 have said before 2.10+ breaks lots of products that would take ages to
 hack about (especially for companies using Zope not individuals with
 time on their hands). I'm all for upgrading, bug fixing and  
 refactoring
 normally, but the backwards compatibility with Zope makes it harder  
 than
 it should be.

[Zope] Trouble getting Zope 2.8/Python 2.3 to work in OS X 10.6

[Dan Gaibel]

I apologize if this questions belongs in a different forum, but...

I am having a heck of a time getting Python 2.3.5 installed in OS X  
10.6 (Snow Leopard server.) I need it for a Zope 2.8.6 installation.  
OS X comes with Python 2.6.1 and I guess my plan is to have 2.3  
installed alongside it.

Neither MacPorts (a framework for installing ports of various programs  
to os x) nor Fink (essentially a port of apt-get / dpkg for os x)  
worked. MacPorts didn't have a port of python2.3 and Fink wouldn't  
compile.

What I did to get it to the point where it is now:

configure with:

./configure --enable-framework MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.5 --with- 
universal-archs=all --enable-toolbox-glue=false

then run:

export LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8

next edit the resulting Makefile and remove the -Wno-long-double flag  
(it only appears once)

finally, running 'sudo make' yields the error:

libtool -o Python.framework/Versions/2.3/Python -dynamic -prebind - 
seg1addr 0x1000 libpython2.3.a \
 -framework System -lcc_dynamic -arch_only ppc  - 
install_name /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/Python - 
compatibility_version 2.3 -current_version 2.3
libtool: can't locate file for: -lcc_dynamic
libtool: file: -lcc_dynamic is not an object file (not allowed in a  
library)
make: *** [Python.framework/Versions/2.3/Python] Error 1

I haven't been able to figure out that last error; commenting out the  
line it stems from breaks things, deleting just that particular flag  
(lcc_dynamic) breaks things, and googling didn't turn up any answers.

If this is an inappropriate questions for this list, I apologize...  
where should I post?

Thanks!

Re: [Zope] Trouble getting Zope 2.8/Python 2.3 to work in OS X 10.6

[Dan Gaibel]

So I ended up going with Python 2.4.6 via Macports. I really want to  
get this to work with Zope 2.8... configure works fine when I use this  
python, but then when I make, I get:

/opt/local/bin/python2.4 /home/zope/Zope-2.8.6-final/setup.py \

build-base/python-2.4/build-scripts --build-temp=/home/zope/ 
Zope-2.8.6-final/build-base/python-2.4/build-temp
running build
running build_py
error: package directory 'build/lib/macosx-10/6-i386-2/4/Products/ 
StandardCacheManagers' does not exist

I see this StandardCacheManagers directory does exist in /home/zope/ 
Zope-2.8.6-final/lib/python/build/lib.macosx-10.6-i386-2.4/Products/ 
StandardCacheManagers but maybe this is not the right one? Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Dan

Re: [Zope] Trouble getting Zope 2.8/Python 2.3 to work in OS X 10.6

[Dan Gaibel]

 remove!
   File /opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/ 
html_quote.py, line 4, in module
 from ustr import ustr
   File /opt/local/libexec/Zope/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/ustr.py,  
line 18, in module
 nasty_exception_str = Exception.__str__.im_func
AttributeError: 'wrapper_descriptor' object has no attribute 'im_func'

Does this make sense to anyone? Has anyone had any luck with Macports  
(using zope) under os x 10.6 (Snow Leopard?)

Any advice is GREATLY appreciated.

 I see this StandardCacheManagers directory does exist in /home/zope/

 I apologize if this questions belongs in a different forum, but...

 I am having a heck of a time getting Python 2.3.5 installed in OS X
 10.6 (Snow Leopard server.) I need it for a Zope 2.8.6 installation.
 OS X comes with Python 2.6.1 and I guess my plan is to have 2.3
 installed alongside it.

 Neither MacPorts (a framework for installing ports of various  
 programs
 to os x) nor Fink (essentially a port of apt-get / dpkg for os x)
 worked. MacPorts didn't have a port of python2.3 and Fink wouldn't
 compile.

 What I did to get it to the point where it is now:

 configure with:

 ./configure --enable-framework MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.5 --with-
 universal-archs=all --enable-toolbox-glue=false

 then run:

 export LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8

 next edit the resulting Makefile and remove the -Wno-long-double flag
 (it only appears once)

 finally, running 'sudo make' yields the error:

 libtool -o Python.framework/Versions/2.3/Python -dynamic -prebind -
 seg1addr 0x1000 libpython2.3.a \
-framework System -lcc_dynamic -arch_only ppc  -

 libtool: can't locate file for: -lcc_dynamic
 libtool: file: -lcc_dynamic is not an object file (not allowed in a
 library)
 make: *** [Python.framework/Versions/2.3/Python] Error 1

 I haven't been able to figure out that last error; commenting out the
 line it stems from breaks things, deleting just that particular flag
 (lcc_dynamic) breaks things, and googling didn't turn up any answers.

 If this is an inappropriate questions for this list, I apologize...
 where should I post?

 Thanks!

[Zope] Data.fs too big to pack...

[Dan Gaibel]

I have foolishly allowed my database to grow so large that I have no room to 
pack it. Is there any way that I could make it so that Data.fs.old gets 
populated on a separate drive or over the network?

Thanks for any advice as I approach this data storage cliff!

[Zope] Read-only mode for Zope 2.8.6?

[Dan Gaibel]

Happy new year, Zope gurus!

I am migrating to a new server and I'd like to be able to put the old machine 
into a read-only mode so that no new transactions occur as I transfer data 
over. In zope.conf there is a read-only-database  directive, which I set to 
on and it has no effect (I can still make changes.) Is there an easy way to 
make the database inaccessible for updating?

Many thanks,

Dan

confirming that the meta type is Folder_Hidden, a homegrown variation on the 
folder object that was built years ago. There are other instances of that 
product all over the site, and they seem to work fine...

The meta type is confirmed with the type(be.aq_self) command:

class '*eGld6IM/4fOr3FLn15Iljw==.Folder_Hidden'

Since all objects within courses seem to be problematic, I found the meta 
type for the courses folder to be class 'OFS.Folder.Folder'

I also noted that when I first type in be = 
app.asian.courses.behttp://app.asian.courses.be/ or any object within the 
courses folder I get:

2013-01-10 14:23:12 WARNING ZODB Could not import class 'GroupUserFolder' from 
module 'Products.GroupUserFolder.GroupUserFolder'

I included everything that the debugger spit out in a previous response, but it 
got bounced for being to large... maybe unnecessary, anyway.

I should have figured.  Try:

type(be.aq_self)

Another bit of data::

print app.asiaon.courses._objects

Which should tell us the meta_type of the 'be' object.

[Zope] Zope 2: traversing and modifying DTM doc in folders?

[Dan Gaibel]

Greetings, I have a developer here trying to fix a problem with some legacy 
Zope 2 (2.8.6) material. Basically, she is trying to change properties on a 
DTML document, but so far cannot get the script to recursively search through 
folders to act on every document in the hierarchy.

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Best,

Dan

-
Hello, the things we want to do is to find every media file (DTML document) in 
a folder structure and change their format. They are a few folders deep and the 
number of folders that contain the file is unknown, so I tried to use a 
recursive way to get access to every document.

So this is what I did, I wrote a script named changeType with parameter 
object, which is initially 0. Then when object is 0, just set object = 
context. If in object we found that there's another folder called f, just 
called changeType(f). The script is shown as below:

#parameter object = 0
from Products.PythonScripts.standard import html_quote
request = context.REQUEST
RESPONSE =  request.RESPONSE

if object == 0:
   object = context

folders = object.objectValues(['Folder'])
for f in folders:
   fds = f.objectValues(['Folder'])
   if(len(fds) != 0):
  f.changeType(f)
   ...(methods to change format)

But this causes an error:

Error Type: AttributeError
Error Value: ‘str’ object has no attribute ‘objectValues'
​
I think the reason should be, it doesn't seen object or context as object 
and context but seen them just as strings. But I have no idea about how could I 
solve this or if there's any other way I can call a recursive method to get 
every DTML document in their respective subfolders. Please let me know if you 
have any suggestion/examples on Zope/found another error in my code/etc.

[Zope] Redirecting all objects in a folder

[Dan Gaibel]

How can I make it so that any object accessed under a particular folder gets 
redirected to another URL?

In other words, someone going to the URL 
website.com/folder/page1.html or 
website.com/folder/page2.html  (or any 
page in the /folder/ directory) gets redirected to 
google.com.

I’m running Zope 2.8.6 with ZServer. Would Virtual Host Monster work as a 
solution?

Thanks for any advice!

Dan
