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. Perhaps it would be better to solve this by configuring your sendmail (or other SMTP MTA) to be non-blocking, i.e. store-and-forward. Also you could send just one message to all the recipients instead of sending individual messages. 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? Maybe you could just use mailman as MTA, greating temporary mailing-lists.

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.

[Zope] help! dtml-if question
Hi,
I've tried to find a solution myself but now am stuck. I created a little
"Blurb" product for a university department website so that faculty members
can announce recent publications on the department's homepage. They create
these ZClass instances in their own folders, and a DTML method in the
top-level folder grabs and displays them at random. (I want to avoid using
ZCatalog for the time being.) What the method does is randomly choose a
faculty folder, and then randomly choose a Blurb instance within that
folder. Here's the hack I came up with:
dtml-with Dept
dtml-with Fac
dtml-with Sites
dtml-with "_.whrandom.choice(objectValues(['Folder']))"
dtml-with "_.whrandom.choice(objectValues(['Blurb']))"
dtml-var index_html
(end tags omitted)
The problem is that this method will produce an Index Error when it comes
across a folder that doesn't contain an instance of "Blurb" class. So I
need to make the selection of a folder conditional on Zope's finding a
Blurb in that folder. Here's what I tried after reading up:
dtml-with Dept
dtml-with Fac
dtml-with Sites
dtml-with "_.whrandom.choice(objectValues(['Folder']))"
dtml-if "_.has_key('Blurb')"
dtml-with "_.whrandom.choice(objectValues(['Blurb']))"
dtml-var index_html
/dtml-with
dtml-else
Some default Blurb would appear.
This method fails. Can someone help?

This seems like a good idea. It makes it hard to get disposition status for the delivery in the transaction - but that problem is intrinsic to email communications, and probably best addressed by using the "sender" header (i think it is), so delivery failure notifications go to someone who needs to know about the failure. Even better - but lots more complicated: have the failure notifications directed to a program which queues the fact of the failure for the sending program to use. I haven't used it, but contemporary MTAs have catchall aliases, by which you can handle a pattern of recipients. Have the envelope sender fit the pattern, and encode the information about the program that needs to get back the failure information. I think this kind of architecture is necessary for comprehensive mail sending from zope, with delivery failure accounting, since mail sending is inherently asynchronous. Maybe you could just use mailman as MTA, greating temporary mailing-lists. This is also a good idea in principle, but would wind up being cumbersome. Mailling list "objects" are heavy weight components in mailman - each one having a list metadata and archive directory, mta aliases, etc. Plus, you may have to leave the list up until the last delivery is completed (successful or not). Better, i think, to adopt techniques and steal code from mailman, to take the pieces you want. Ultimately, i don't think you'd be taking that much - there's a lot in python that gets you a lot of the way.

Re: [Zope] help! dtml-if question
Hi, Anthony
how about:
dtml-if "_.len(objectValues(['Blurb'])) 0"
Your _.has_key() (I think you meant _.hasattr()) statement was looking
for something named "Blurb", not a thing of type"Blurb", so of course it
failed.
The objectValues(['atype']) statement returns a list of the things of
the type, so checking for a non-zero length of the list will do what
you need.

Hi,
I've tried to find a solution myself but now am stuck. I created a
little "Blurb" product for a university department website so that
faculty members can announce recent publications on the department's
homepage. They create these ZClass instances in their own folders,
and a DTML method in the top-level folder grabs and displays them at
random. (I want to avoid using ZCatalog for the time being.) What
the method does is randomly choose a faculty folder, and then randomly
choose a Blurb instance within that folder. Here's the hack I came up
with:
dtml-with Dept
dtml-with Fac
dtml-with Sites
dtml-with "_.whrandom.choice(objectValues(['Folder']))"
dtml-with "_.whrandom.choice(objectValues(['Blurb']))"
dtml-var index_html
(end tags omitted)
The problem is that this method will produce an Index Error when it
comes across a folder that doesn't contain an instance of "Blurb"
class. So I need to make the selection of a folder conditional on
Zope's finding a Blurb in that folder. Here's what I tried after
reading up:
dtml-with Dept
dtml-with Fac
dtml-with Sites
dtml-with "_.whrandom.choice(objectValues(['Folder']))"
dtml-if "_.has_key('Blurb')"
dtml-with "_.whrandom.choice(objectValues(['Blurb']))"
dtml-var index_html
/dtml-with
dtml-else
Some default Blurb would appear.
This method fails. Can someone help?

Let's you not use specific names of ACL's such as "Staff" or "CopyWriter".

[Zope] WDDX anyone?
Has anyone considered WDDX for Zope? This seems like a nice next step to exchanging data beyond RSS, but not as ambitious as SOAP and has SDKs for CF, perl, etc. I have some applications in mind for intranet syndication that goes beyond what RSS can do. Also there is full rdf. From: http://www.wddx.org/ Welcome to WDDX.ORG, the home of the WDDX SDK and related projects. WDDX.ORG seeks to empower Web developers with technology that enables them to create new forms of value on the Internet using distributed data and Web syndicate networks. The Web Distributed Data Exchange, or WDDX, is a free, open XML-based technology that allows Web applications created with any platform to easily exchange data with one another over the Web. To learn more about WDDX, check out the Understanding WDDX section of the site. Who created WDDX? Allaire created WDDX in order to solve key problems in exchanging data between Web applications. In particular, Simeon Simeonov, Allaire's language technology architect, created WDDX to support problems of distributed computing within ColdFusion. This work was generalized into a cross-language framework, and resulted in the creation of the WDDX SDK and WDDX.org. The WDDX SDK was created by Nate Weiss, an independent Web developer, with the support of Allaire and a number of other third parties. How does WDDX work? All of the standard programming environments on the Web (ColdFusion, Perl, ASP, Java, JavaScript, PHP, etc) include native data structures such as arrays, record sets or value pairs. WDDX provides a module for each language that will automatically serialize or translate the native data structures into an abstract representation in XML, or deserialize WDDX XML into a native data structure. For example, you could use WDDX to take a complex array in ColdFusion, serialize it into XML, send it to an ASP server, and then deserialize from XML into a VBScript array object with all the types natively converted. This conversion process between languages is relatively transparent to developers by shifting any XML processing and interaction into the WDDX modules, eliminating developers from having to directly program or manipulate XML themselves, This is not an RMI mechanism.

I suspect the problem comes from a "POST" operation. You will not see POST operation parameters in the web server log files. It is highly unlikely that a missing RESPONSE causes the problem. Such an error would be handled at a different place (I think in "mapply"). At line 444 of "ZPublisher/HTTPRequest.py", you will see the following code: if flagsCONVERTED: try: item=converter(item) except: if (not item and not (flagsDEFAULT) and defaults.has_key(key)): item = defaults[key] if flagsRECORD: item=getattr(item,attr) if flagsRECORDS: item.reverse() item = item[0] item=getattr(item,attr) else: raise Add "print key; sys.stdout.flush()" before the final "raise". This will print the corresponding "key" (with is missing). To get more information: the variable "fslist" contains all parameters. It is a list of objects. Each object has a "name" attribute (which gives the form variable name or 'key'), the object either has a "file" or "value" attribute. You may look at line 370, to see how it is processed. You can test your debugging code in your test environment. Simply create a form with a "xxx:required" variable name and do not provide a value.

No. I just guessed.
I think I might have read it in the source the other day too.
I'll take a look at the wiki now:

A DTML-style Python expression. As with DTML, the "_"

Aha!
I'm looking forward to using the new "OTHERWISE LET" clause too, when
the next release of ZPatterns comes out.
Thanks.

Re: [Zope-dev] Zope Suitability for Computer Lab Project

[Zope-dev] ZODB
I am getting really funny problems with my Zope installation and I have no idea where to start looking. I for instance deleted a python product from the Products directory and when I start Zope the product is still listed in the Product list. I then packed the ZODB, cleared my Browser's cache, and refreshed the Product List but still the product is visible. I can however delete the python product (which is by the way not in my Products directory) from the Control Panel. Somewhere something is cached and I don't know where. It seems to cache errors as well and they stick. A reinstallation fixed this problem, but now it seems more fundamental. I've come accross this odd caching behaviour again after reinstall and can't reinstall every time this happens. I run Zope 2.2.2 behind Apache 1.3.9 and do virtualhosting with the ProxyPass directive. Please help!!

[Zope-dev] Zope 2.2.2 Issue: AttributeError: __call__
I hope I haven't overlooked anything here, and not posting ignorantly. After installing a fresh copy of Zope 2.2.2 on Python 1.5.2, everything seems to look ok. I created a new user with Manager, and then proceeded to create a subfolder for a new web site to test out some things in 2.2.2. I created some dtml documents, then I connected with ftp to create a few more dtml documents, and a couple subfolders with docs. All dtml docs in the main subfolder were renderable. ANY dtml docs in subfolders below that were _not_ renderable, and spit an AttributeError: __call__ generally inside the standard_html_header. However, thinking that there was something wrong rendering my header, I realized there was nothing technically wrong with the dtml in the header. After installing some products, they all ended up complaining about the same thing. I have confirmed this issue with the latest checkout of Zope2 from cvs. Can anyone else confirm this as an issue?

Re: [Zope-dev] CORBA-ZODB: Is replacing global get_transaction() the only way...
Hi Jim! Glad to here from you. I don't think I'm clearly sharing the problem I'm having. See my comments below. John Heintz Jim Fulton wrote: "John D.Heintz" wrote: Hi all, I am about to embark on integrating ZODB with CORBA, Woo hoo! and am in the deep thinking phase of the endeavor. ;-) What I want to do is _explicitly_ manage connections and transactions without being able to depend on what thread is running. I know that this is _not_ the way that Zope works, That depends on your point of view. The Zope publisher (ORB) largely automates transaction management for application programmers, so they don't have to deal with identifying transaction boundaries. So, from an application point of voew, these details are hidden. First issue I need to clarify: I am not integrating ZPublisher, just ZODB expose objects. I want to do this because we are using ZODB to persist complicated Python object (great database!) but are not publishing them to the web. From a system point of view, Zope does manage per-thread transaction data. This is something a CORBA interface could provide as well. CORBA provides two threading policies, and either could be used in a thread/Connection per request model. I am not intending on doing Connection per request, I would rather manage Connections as longer running activities so that I don't have to create servants more often than necessary. IMPORTANT NOTE: The ZODB-provided transaction manager automatically manages per-thread transaction information. Were you aware of this? This sounds like what you need. Yes, I'm pretty aware of this. I have even studied the cPersistence.c code, specifically the changed() function that calls the global get_transaction() python function. but if I want to use standard CORBA I think I have only two choices: 1) Explicitly associate Connections with Transactions in my CORBA layer. What I need to do is allow any thread to change a Persistent object from some Connection, This would be nice. Basically, you want to open a ZODB database connection and begin a transaction at the beginning of the request. At the end of the request, you want to commit or abort the transaction, depending on whether an error occurred, and close the connection. This is the Zope publisher model. I want to rather keep a persistent reference to objects in the Database (from a Connection) across CORBA Requests. This is the core reason that I am trying to manage Transactions/threads/Connections explicitly. and make sure that the right transaction is called for "register". If I understand your requirements, then the standard transaction machinery should do this for you. Except that I'm not committing or aborting necessarily at the end of a CORBA Request. I plan on having users login to the server and get back a Session object that provides access to other objects in the system. That returned Session object will have a ZODB Connection and a Transaction cached. It also will expose through CORBA a commit() and abort() method that delegates to the ZODB Transaction. All this because I want to keep object from the ZODB Connection cache around for a while. 2) Build a complete wrapping adapter layer that does thread synchronization to the actual Persistent objects and proper thread for the transaction. - Lots of overhead and redundant coding - tricks with ExtensionClass might make this adaptation simpler to code, but still it won't be easy. I'm not sure what this is, but I think it probably isn't necessary. This layer would exist to ensure that, across CORBA Requests, the correct thread would be running. The correct thread is the one that was created in the CORBA Session object that open()ed the ZODB Connection. Obviously number one is my preferred choice. In order to accomplish that, I see only two ways: 1) Modify ZODB to maintain a Connection to Transaction link, and modify cPersistence.c to use that link in the changed() function instead of relying on the standard get_transaction() thread index. Is there a one-to-one relation between threads and connections (or, more precisely, is it the case that there is never more than one simultaneous connection per thread)? If so, then get_transaction() should do the right thing. There would not be any predictable mapping from threads to connections for any two CORBA Requests if I don't throw away the connections after a commit() or abort(). 2) Replace the get_transaction() in globals to return the appropriate Transaction regardless of thread. It currently returns a different transaction depending on the thread. In the CORBA exposure I would never call get_transaction(). I would use the reference to a transaction from the CORBA Session object that originally open()ed a database connection. Again, my preference is number one. After going over the ZODB code, I _think_ that a Connection is always
[Zope-dev] Trying to catch up - what are the best Zope tools today?
Hi, I've been out of the Zope world for a few months... now I'm back and I need to quickly write a small-scale e-commerce application. It's got enough peculiarities to make it impossible to do with eTailer or EMarket, so I'm trying to figure out the best tools and approach to use for writing it, but so much has changed in Zope since I last worked with it. There's ZPatterns, LoginManager instead of GenericUserFolder, new session management products... the new tools seem much better than the old, but most are in development and carry dire warnings, and at least some of the old tools don't work in Zope 2.2. Can anyone provide a quick rundown of the best choices for building a production site at this time? I'm going to need sessions, user registration and login, and the usual array of e-commerce pieces (products, carts, orders, payments...), with all data stored in SQL. I started reading about ZPatterns but I still can't get my head around it... I'm wondering if I should try to learn it fast enough for this project, or stick to what I already know. What in people's experience is the typical learning curve for ZPatterns? How much am I going to have to figure out to be able to build support for SQL storage? I couldn't find any examples for SQL use in ZPatterns - did I miss anything? Thanks in advance for any comments. -- Itai Tavor"Je sautille, donc je suis."

As far as user registration and logins, LoginManager in conjunction with the Membership product seem to have reached a semi-stable implementation. It took me some serious skull-sweat to figure them out enough to do SMB authentication from a Solaris box off of a NT PDC, and some more to get LM to participate in the local roles machinery, but once I did, it's been working really well. I assume that creating an SQL UserSource won't be any more dificult. Good Luck. Warning: :-) The current membership product has not yet been re-integrated with the PTK, so the implementation (though stable) may have further architectural changes coming down the pipe.
