Its also the only sensible option that lets you bookmark your place in a session, and return to it much later (which interests me more).

Re: [Zope-dev] Re: CoreSessionTracking proposal
Are you suggesting that the session token should actually store session data? As an alternative SessionManager, it appears to have some advatanges that others do not. Hmmm. Please smack me if I'm wrong, but I'm not clear on how it differs much from not keeping session-related data in the token. I guess you could argue that a session token that holds application data is "more random" due to the nature of its composition, and due to that it can't be "guessed" as easily (I doubt anyone would even try). One of the purposes of the random element of the session token in the current implementation is to address this "token guessing" risk. However, in either case (app data in token or app data key in token), if the token is stolen, it can still be used by the "robber" to see the data that relates to it (made available by the application which relies on the server's unpackaging of the token). This is a different risk, the "token theft" risk. Example: if you get a tree tag token from somebody, and plug it into a URL on your browser, it'll work happily. Without a client-checking scheme (such as encoding the IP address in the token), a token theft attack is very easy. As voiced by others in the thread, client-checking is not reliable, should not be a default, and maybe shouldn't be included as an option at all. But all of these ponderings are kind of moot, because session data can be arbitrarily large (session data on the order of a megabyte will probably not be uncommon), so the data can't realistically be embedded in the token anyway. Its also the only sensible option that lets you bookmark your place in a session, and return to it much later (which interests me more). I don't understand what you mean... a session token that doesn't include application data has the same property. That's essentially its reason for being around at all. (If you're concerned that the session token isn't URL-compatible, it is... the current implementation lets the session token be transferred via a query string, inlined URL elements, or as a cookie value). Parts of the token *never* expire, so you can happily bookmark something with a token value embedded (or receive and continue to resend a persistent cookie). Isnt the tree tag an example of one Session use case? It smells alot like a session to me. Probably, yes. Although it will probably not be reimplemented to use the session machinery in the near future (dont fix it if it aint broke! :-). ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

[Zope-dev] Zope URL
I am hoping someone can help me. I am at the end of my line. I have tried everything and nothing else works. I am trying to install Zope on my web server on which I have a small intranet. I am using Windows NT 4.0 and IIS 4.0. Ideally I was trying to use Squishdot with Zope to create a small discussion forum that can be accessed via the INTRANET. My Web server name is SRNT and is installed on my F:\ partition drive I installed Zope in the root cgi-bin directory and called my website ZopeSite. I selected the "Run as a win32 service" F:\InetPub\wwwroot\cgi-bin\ZopeSite\ I went to my browser (MS Internet Explorer 5.0) and accessed the Zope Site using the URL: http://srnt:8080/manage I successfully accessed my Zope site manager and everything was working just fine. Now comes the problem: I do not want to connect to the Intranet using the server port (8080) in the URL to access the Zope pages . I installed both Squishdot and TinyTables products on Zope and started building a Squishdot site, which I named ChatClub. However, the URL to access the Squishdot site looks like: http://srnt:8080/Control_Panel/Products/Squishdot/ChatClub/index_html I WANT IT TO AT LEAST SAY: http://srnt/Control_Panel/Products/Squishdot/ChatClub/index_html OR http://srnt/ChatClub/index_html I don't want any reference to the server port 8080. I have read several help documents on IIS and PCGI AND THEY ALL SAY DIFFERENT THINGS. One document said to copy the Zope.pcgi to the IIS cgi-bin folder and another said to copy it to the IIS scripts folder. One document showed the Zope.pcgi file path configuration completely different from mine. The document showed : PCGI_MODULE_PATH=X:\WebSite\lib\python\Main.py And mine showed PCGI_MODULE_PATH=F:\InetPub\wwwroot\cgi-bin\ZopeSite\lib\python\Zope The document even had files I didn't have anywhere in my directory like pcgi.soc and some in completely different folders like: Help document: PCGI_MODULE_PATH=X:\WebSite\pcgi\pcgi.pid My file: PCGI_MODULE_PATH=F:\InetPub\wwwroot\cgi-bin\ZopeSite\var\pcgi.pid I know there must be a a simple way to accomplish this.

[Zope-dev] CoreSessionTracking - Access Session Data permission
Hi Chris, in an earlier message, you defended the existence of a separate permission "Access Session Data" (in the CoreSessionTracking proposal) by the following case: There may be (authenticated) users with (TTF?) scripting rights that should be prevented to screen session data (by withdrawing the "Access Session Data" permission from them). This will only be effective, when not all users automatically have the "Anonymous" role. There was a discussion about the "Anonymous" role some months ago in the list: * The (outdated) Content Manager Guide mentions that any user has the role "Anonymous". * A role "Anonymous" with the meaning "not authenticated" will make management for sites with authenticated, non-manager users more difficult, as those users should have most rights of "Anonymous". Only in exceptional cases, e.g. for session data, they will have less priviledges. If the meaning of "Anonymous" changes in this direction, then this role should be explicitely assignable to users in the "Change User" view to avoid such difficulties. I would be much in favour of a solution that does not entail new permissions. This would be possible, if session id management and access to session data would be melted together. In the current proposal, both are separate modules linked by the application: the application obtains a session id from the id manager and then accesses the session data, usually with the id, but in principle with anything it likes, e.g. a stolen session id. It seems that the new permissions should help to control such abuses. If the session id becomes an implicit (not DTML-forgable) parameter for session data access, then the session data need not to be protected by new permissions. However, I agree with you, that even making session id management implicit, will not provide strict security. Why am I against new permissions? This has partly to do with the current Zope permission management. As soon as you have more than a few products installed and created a few additional roles, permission management becomes a nightmare: it is very difficult to keep the overview with the current unstructured, non-batched permission setting view.

[Zope-dev] Zope URL
I do not want to connect to the Intranet using the server port (8080) in the URL to access the Zope pages . The problem you have is related to the sockets. Zope has it's port set to 8080 as a default just to make it easier to coexist with IIS. The default for the http service is port 80. If you want to use http://smt/manage You will have to have your IIS changed to run on another port instead of the default, and then change Zope to run on port 80. But folks who don't know and just try to visit your site at http://smt will get the default page served by the Zope server not your IIS server. (Of course you could removed the less capable web server software...;-} ) You can not have both servers on the same port. So you probably will need to redo the install settings for both IIS and Zope. A Windows-only fix would be to change the registry setting used for the default http service to 8080. But this won't make the two services coexist on one port. Ports Port Number HTTP 80 FTP 21 GOPHER 70 SSL 443 If you want to use other port numbers, you can change them through the Registry. Start RegEdit and go to the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\ control\ServiceProvider\ServiceTypes . In the W3svc subkey you'll find a hexidecimal value named TcpPort. Change this to the port number you want to use. Fo r example, if you want to use port 81, set the value to 51 (51 hex is 81 decimal). Similarly, you can set the FTP port in the MSFTPSVC subkey.

[Zope-dev] ZPatterns design questions
First, some context... I'm working on a new data storage system for a related set of (primarily) Zope sites. The data will be kept in ZODB and mirrored out to a RDB (MySQL) to provide read-only access to some non-zope stuff. One other thing to note, all of this will be done via python code (no zclasses). Now say that I want to keep data about a company. I have a specialist, rack and dataskin already created. I currently can store data on the skin via AttributeProviders, but this was mainly done to get something working to mess around with. What I think I want is several SheetProviders. Two for each block of data (a block basically reflect the breakdown of tables in the MySQL DB). Why 2 for each block, one for the ZODB store and one for mirroring the data out to the RDB. So, the breakdown for the company would look like this: Company Rack - Company Information (name, url, etc). . SheetProvider (ZODB) - read/write . SheetProvider (SQL) - write only - Address Information (city, state, zip, etc) . SheetProvider (ZODB) - read/write . SheetProvider (SQL) - write only Does this sound reasonable? I thought about writing a mix-in class to add the SQL stuff to the SheetProvider, eliminating the need for 2 entries for each block of data. But I liked the idea of each being its own plugin, seemed cleaner. The specific question I have about this design is where does the _properties() attribute go? They need to be associated with their appropriate SheetProviders, so that seems the most likely place, but that would require a SheetProvider subclass for each data block which bothers me. It also just doesn't seem to fit in with the design pattern, but my understanding of it is still fairly limited. Next Topic... Adding to the above design, we add a second entity; People. I need to express relationships between the people and the companies. These relationships can be of various sorts; eg. technical contact, marketing contact, company admin, etc. My idea is to create another specialist/rack/dataskin to contain the information about these relationships and associated data (type of relationship, corresponding roles, references to the related entities, etc). I don't have any code for this aspect of the design yet, so I'm only fishing for general criticisms/thoughts at this point. Is there a better way to do this? BTW, there are going to be many more types of entities and relationships that these examples, so it needs to scale. It also needs to perform well, as the authentication mechanism will be fetching the roles off the relationships and, possibly, their related objects.

We've come to the conclusion that ZClasses really are more a hinderance
than a help, trading functionality for shorter learning curve. With
straight python code you get much more control and the ability to use
conventional editors and tools (cvs), without losing anything besides a bit
of time figuring things out (which is better in the long run anyways).

I would like to instrument the Zope code to generate a traceback that has a more useful message than "(see above)". The ValueError is being raised in field2required, but I see no parameters in the Apache log with a name of "...:required".

[Zope] script execution timeout?

[Zope] 'self' in external methods
Hello,
Whenever I do a
def play(self,sound):
return sound
and a
dtml-var "play('plonk')"
I get a
Error Type: TypeError
Error Value: not enough arguments; expected 2, got 1
Now, I thought 'self' was passed _implicitly_, as explained in
http://www.zope.org/Documentation/How-To/ExternalMethods, but I'm
actually having to do a
dtml-var "play(this(),'plonk')"
to pass the context to 'self' in the External method. Explanations
gratefully received.
Thanks, seb.

[Zope] database connection problem (halting Zope)
Hello everybody, I started to play with Zope in order to use it as intranet platform. For this I need database access. I tried odbc and MySQL and got it working fine. However we have some existing warehouse queries which take minutes to complete. When I set up ZODBC connection and ZSQL method to access such query, it halts all other Zope activities until it finishes. I tried this both with NT Zope and Linux Zope, ODBC and MySQL DAs. As long as the query runs, no other requests are serviced. I understand that long query blocks database connection, but I thought Zope is threaded, so it should run other requests not using this database connection just fine, no? Could it be that the python binary used is not compiled for threading? I spent yesterday afternoon and this morning looking for solution to this problem on the net, but with no luck yet. Can anybody enlighten me why is that? And what can I do to fix this. Otherwise I like Zope a lot. Easy, featured, just great.

[Zope] 'Offline' mailhost
Shane Hathaway wrote: I'm not sure how well MailHost scales, but you can certainly store thousands of names in a ZODB-managed list. Tests done for the BTreeFolder product prove it. Sadly, I think MailHost doesn't scale too well :-( What it'd need to do if you're sending the mail to a few thousand people is to be non-blocking. IIRC, currently, a method/page with a dtml-in addressessendmail/dtml-in tag pair in it will only return when the mail has been sent to all the recipients. So, if the mails going to lots of people, the page takes ages to return. This is the problem I had where our mail server was taking lots of time to send messages (it was doing lots of stuff to make sure the address was valid) so submitting posts on Squishdot.org was taking ages too. What, IMHO, is really needed is a mailhost/sendmail tag type thing that gets a message and a list of addresses to send it to. If it could do that in a seperate thread/process/whatever so that whatever calls it doesn't block, that'd be great. Of course, it'd need to have a 'hook back' method provided so any errors that occured could be dealt with. I wonder how mailman does this stuff and if the code could be borrowed for Zope? cheers, Chris ___ 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 )

I get "you do not have the proxy role" something like that. The wording is crap. What it means is that the user object you are authenticated with must have the role you are trying to give to the object by proxy. ...which makes sense if you think about it. ...but is frustrating if the role actually nothing to do with you, and has less permissions that your role. For example, you, as someone with only the Manager role, can't give a Customer proxy role to an object, even though Customers can do much less than Managers, because you don't have the Customer role. So, you have to go to acl_users and give yourself the Customer role just to complete the operation, and then, more than likely, remove the Customer role from yourself later... I can see why it's like it is, btu sureyl the Manager could be made to eb an exception? Or mayeb that's what's happening with the Superuser object? So only the superuser can set the proxy role for a document. But once I do that, I can't edit it anymore as Manager (expected) Hmm... you imply the superuser has ended up owning an object, which shouldn't be possible (yes, that can of worms again :P) so does anyone know what's going on here? cheers, Chris ___ 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 )

[Zope] A hint on FSSession
Why use javascript to access cookies? You can set and get them purely using zope. http://www.zope.org/Members/BwanaZulia/cookies. Also, why not install a session product (HappySession, FSSession, SQLSession...), it'll probably make your life easier in the long run... seb Yes, and if you choose to use FSSession, remember to rename the object to something other that "FSSession". Having an object called "FSSession" in more than one place can f**k things up in the namestack, so to be on the safe side, rename (note "rename") the FSSession object to something more unique after having created one. This caused me a lot of brain damage, and I had it explained by a friend after may failed attempts to understand the error messages. ___ 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 )

Now I want to iterate over this list (after retrieving it from the database), but how can I do this? How can I tell Zope that the string is actually a list? How can I typecast in Zope? Use a python or external method to make a list from your string. I am supposing you are storing a string representation of the list that looks like: "['fred', 'bob', 'mary']" Get rid of any punctuation you do not want with (e.g.) theString = string.replace(theString, '[', ' ') (Yes, there are more efficient ways to do this!) Then, once you have a space-delimited list of items, you may use theList = string.split(theString) which will make a list of the words in the string.

[Zope] IIS port problem
I am hoping someone can help me. I am at the end of my line. I have tried everything and nothing else works. I am trying to install Zope on my web server on which I have a small intranet. I am using Windows NT 4.0 and IIS 4.0. Ideally I was trying to use Squishdot with Zope to create a small discussion forum that can be accessed via the INTRANET. My Web server name is SRNT and is installed on my F:\ partition drive I installed Zope in the root cgi-bin directory and called my website ZopeSite. I selected the "Run as a win32 service" F:\InetPub\wwwroot\cgi-bin\ZopeSite\ I went to my browser (MS Internet Explorer 5.0) and accessed the Zope Site using the URL: http://srnt:8080/manage I successfully accessed my Zope site manager and everything was working just fine. Now comes the problem: I do not want to connect to the Intranet using the server port (8080) in the URL to access the Zope pages . I installed both Squishdot and TinyTables products on Zope and started building a Squishdot site, which I named ChatClub. However, the URL to access the Squishdot site looks like: http://srnt:8080/Control_Panel/Products/Squishdot/ChatClub/index_html I WANT IT TO AT LEAST SAY: http://srnt/Control_Panel/Products/Squishdot/ChatClub/index_html OR http://srnt/ChatClub/index_html I don't want any reference to the server port 8080. I have read several help documents on IIS and PCGI AND THEY ALL SAY DIFFERENT THINGS. One document said to copy the Zope.pcgi to the IIS cgi-bin folder and another said to copy it to the IIS scripts folder. One document showed the Zope.pcgi file path configuration completely different from mine. The document showed : PCGI_MODULE_PATH=X:\WebSite\lib\python\Main.py And mine showed PCGI_MODULE_PATH=F:\InetPub\wwwroot\cgi-bin\ZopeSite\lib\python\Zope The document even had files I didn't have anywhere in my directory like pcgi.soc and some in completely different folders like: Help document: PCGI_MODULE_PATH=X:\WebSite\pcgi\pcgi.pid My file: PCGI_MODULE_PATH=F:\InetPub\wwwroot\cgi-bin\ZopeSite\var\pcgi.pid I know there must be a a simple way to accomplish this.

I don't have a quick answer. (It's been a long time since i worked on mailman, and this stuff in particular has changed a lot.) It looks like the code in Mailman/Handlers/SMTPDirect.py is what's of interest, and it doesn't depend too elaborately on the rest of mailman, which is good.

[Zope] Zope stalls indefinitely
Thought we had a problem of ours fixed, but here it is once again, a month later. Zope, every once in a while, will just stall indefinitely. The Zope process doesn't die, it just hangs. Everything was fine for a month or so, and now the problem's started again, about every hour. We're running 2.1.6 on Solaris with pgsql and the ZPyGre adapter and the most recent copy of FSSession. Any thoughts. I've posed this question to a lot of people many times.

[Zope] UserDB plus crypt
Since I couldn't get LoginManger to work, I started modifying
UserDb to handle encrypted passwords... I've changed it so the
encrypted password is stored in the DB, but I haven't been able to
get it to authenticate.
Can anyone offer any insight as to what I need to do?
My modified UserDb.py is attached.

I have read several help documents on IIS and PCGI AND THEY ALL SAY DIFFERENT THINGS.

It does not matter where you put it. In your zopehome/pcgi/util directory there is a pcgifile.py script that will help you check the pcgi info file (that is the very Zope.pcgi file I referred to). If this doesn't report any errors, your IIS-pcgi connection will probably work. One document showed the Zope.pcgi file path configuration completely different from mine.

Be very careful with signals of any kind inside Zope: I had to patch ZServer, as the Oracle client library used signals (probably SIGALRM) when the Oracle server was unavailable. Under Solaris 2.7, this resulted in ZServer's "select" call being aborted with "Interrupted system call". Zserver was unprepared for this event and died.

I will try to recompile python for linux, but I can't do so for WinNT as I have no compiler. Anyway I thought the python distributed with binary release of Zope is threaded, no? If Python is compiled without threads, there is no module "thread". Zope relies on this module. It dies immediately, if it is not there. Thus, you can be sure, your Python has thread support compiled in. So, does anybody know of either binary and threaded Zope driver for Oracle , Sybase etc. or the same ODBC driver? And what is the state of python threading on WinNT paltform? The Python that comes with Zope has thread support compiled in. Maybe, your Python-ODBC connection "forgets" to release Python's interpreter lock. We, once, had such a problem. Accidentally, the DCOracle module had been set up with a standard Python distribution (with threading disabled) rather than the Zope Python. As a consequence, the DCOracle did not call "releaseLock" and "acquireLock" (as they would not be present in a non-threaded Python). And, of course, database operations blocked Zope.

Version 0-7-2 of Squishdot seems to use the url_quote option when accessing the value of admin_address in particular, so when a DTML page has code like !--#var admin_address url_quote-- and admin_address is a property with the value "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", the resulting HTML code is foo%40bar.com which doesn't work correctly, particularly when used as the value of a 'mailto:' URL.
