[Zope-dev] RFC: Pythonic Zope Instance Manager

2003-09-09 Thread Luis Lavena
Hello everyone,

I'll like to Request For Comments on something I was thinking for the past 
weeks: a pythonic replacement of mkzopeinstance script found on zope 2.7, 
and extend it later to a full GUI client (Win32 for a start).

the URL is :
http://www.mmediasys.com/zope/rfc.html
Please excuse the bad grammar, I'n not a native english speaker/writer, and 
I'm very tired at this time (didn't sleep well for the past days).

There some detractors of the idea (most of them linux evangelist), but the 
idea is grater than just use the plain command line boy...

Maybe provide a backend for ISP/ASP companies that provide Zope for their 
customers, so the setup process of instances or zeo clients could be taked 
by a script using ZIntanceManager instead of bash ones.

I'm looking forward the idea is good looking/attractive to some zope 
users/developers. When sending comments put on subject RFC: 
ZInstanceManager to avoid my spam filter deletion.

Regards,

Luis Lavena

[Zope-dev] Add Plone Site - AttributeError

2003-09-09 Thread Robert Van Overmeiren
Hello,

I've added Plone 1.0.5 to my Zope 2.5.1 setup running on Suse Linux. When I
try to add a Plone site, I get a Zope Error:

Error Type: AttributeError
Error Value: get

I also installed Zope 2.6.1 with CMF and Plone on a Windoz 98 box and I get
the same error when adding a Plone Site.

I have Zope running on port 8081. Does that have any effect?

I've seen numerous postings and bug reports on this type of issue, but no
solutions. Is there a solution?

Thx,
Bob V

This is the Zope development list for the discussion of Zope 
development. Please try asking the Plone list where the solution is 
mentioned many times

You are trying to use CMF 1.4. Use CMF 1.3.1 as stated in the docs.

[Zope-dev] OrderSupport and ExternalEditor

2003-09-09 Thread Christian Tismer
Hi Zopistas,

I had sume trouble to get the extra sorting
controls to work for the Ordered Folders.
The Ordered Folders just appear(ed) the same
as regular folders.
After quite some code browsing, I found out:
(and there is a not on DZug as well)
The problem is, that I'm using ExternalEditor,
and this product does a monkey patch on
the ObjectManager: It replaces the manage_main
dtml with its own version, which has no support
for ordered folders, yet.
The reason why this patch happens is just to ad that
little edit pen next to each row in the view.
Quick solution, until the author updates his product:

copy OFS/dtml/main.dtml
  to Products/ExternalEditor/manage_main
edit that file and add this after line 170:
  dtml-comment This is the only different line: /dtml-comment
  dtml-var expr=externalEditLink_(this())
Here the same with more context, added lines marked by *

  dtml-except
  /dtml-try
* dtml-comment This is the only different line: /dtml-comment
* dtml-var expr=externalEditLink_(this())
  /div
  /td
  dtml-with sequence-key

Remark: I don't know a general good way how products
should cope with such problems. It would be nicer
if they didn't carry a copy of maybe outdated code,
but if they could obtain a copy during installation
time (would require some setup script), and identify
the place where to insert their ads.
But this looks hard if the patched code doesn't provide
something like a tag that tells where the place to patch
is.
ciao - chris

[Zope-dev] Where is Zope 2.6 Final?

2003-09-09 Thread Andrew Sydelko

It's been a while since the last beta, and I haven't 
seen many (if any) changes checked into the 2.6 tree
in a while.

What's the holdup? With all the problems that exist with
2.6.1 (with packing, especially) I would have thought 
2.6.2 would have been out months ago.

  Hello Jim!
 
  Zope from 2.6 release try to support unicode, but it make big problem
to
  developers who cann't use unicode (there is many reasons). We make
patch
  to
  Zope 2.7.b1, but it also work with 2.7.b2.
 
  What this patch do.
 
  1. Now Zope think that all non-unicode types (string, text, etc) use
only
  latin-1 charset. It raise error when server encode sended data on
  Properties
  (manage_properties) page (I haven't now traceback, but will send uppon
  request).
 
  2. manage_properties work only in utf-8 charset that make big
problems
  to
  set (and read) values in national encodings. management_page_charset
  not resolve this problem it haven't effect on manage_properties.
Patch
  set proper charset. By default it will be as active locale (-L key).
 
  3. Many other bugfixes (all in description on russian).
 
  I'm sorry for my poor english, I would like to pay your attantion to
this
  patch. If you dont consider it
  then the work with Zope for russian Zope-developers/users will be quite
  complicated.
 
  I attach you full description to patch on russian, may be it will bu
  useful
  for you.
 
  P.S.
  I submit it as bug to bugtracker under #1037
  (http://collector.zope.org/Zope/1037).

Re: [Zope-dev] PythonLibraries Product

Evan Simpson wrote at 2003-9-8 14:43 -0500:
  I'm thinking seriously about writing a Product to provide collections of 
  Python functions defined by a single source text -- PythonLibraries. 

+ 1

  ...
 The Python Libraries Product provides support for collections of
 restricted Python code.  A Python Library is similar to a Folder
 full of Python-based Scripts, except that the functions in the
 Library are more like ordinary Python functions than Scripts, and
 a single persistent global variable namespace is shared among the
 functions in the Library.

Hopefully, these variables are used only for customization.


I have been hit in the past, when I used compiled regular
expressions as default parameters to an ExternalMethod.
Apparently, because some objects (such as compiled
regular expressions) cannot be stored (worse loaded)
persistently.

  The object at ../../5741.RPT has an empty or missing

What object type do you see in the directory listing
(I am not sure, that you can see the type there)?
Your files might be mapped to a somewhat broken object.

If this does not reveal easily the cause of your problem,
I would start debugging.

On

  http://www.dieter.handshake.de/pyprojects/zope

you find a small module (Interactive debugging support)
that lets you build the publishing environment in
an interactive interpreter. Build a request and
traverse to your object. Hopefully, you will get the same
error which you can now analyse with the pm (post mortem)
function of pdb (the Python debugger).
