[Zope] LDAP variable problem 'title'
Hi Zopistas, Firstly, a big thank you to all thos epeople who helped me with KeyError problem when accessing LDAP entries. Just so the solution makes it onto the mailing list archive (for the next bunny who has the same problem) the solution was to add the following to each of your variables missing= ...so that when Zope came across entries without that attribute it didn't barf. I now have one last problem. I can now access all entries from the LDAP directory using the notation - all except one - the "title" attibute . I am guessing that it is because Zope uses "title" to reference the title of the object in the zope database, and therefore won't let you get at the ldap variable using the normal: notation. Is there any way I can pinpoint the LDAP variable instead of the object title in zope? I have no control over the ldap server and attributes name, so I can't change it at that end. When I test the LDAP filter method I can see the variable (it lists all of the attributes of the LDAP record), but I can't reference it in DTML. My filter method is called 'Academics' and just extracts a list of academics in the biology department here at Monash University. I'm sure there must be a way using python notation, but not being a python expert (yet!), I could do with a few clues... Any ideas?

Re: [Zope] Bulk Mailing How-To!
Wow, this is really cool. nice job. btw. if anyone's interested i wrote a patch to change the mailhost behavior to use a persistent connection to the mta. email me if interested (yes, i submitted a feature/wpatch to the collector). also its good to note that the mailhost doesn't currently participate in transactions. regarding injecting to the mta, this is def. the best way to send bulk mail, but you might want to do an fsync to make sure it gets written to disk vs. lingering in a kernel cache. kapil "Stefan H.

[Zope] Zope declining?
Hi, >From the mailing list volume in the last 3 months, it is not hard to see that there is a steady decline. This compared to the trend of last two years (doubling volume every year), should probably raise a red flag. I know what many would say: there are now more experts than newbies as compared to before.

Re: [Zope] Can Zope use a Different Python?
Hi i'm not sure exactly whats being asked here. zope on linux doesn't include its own python interpreter. you can choose which one executes zope and its external methods by specifing the interpreter binary in the start.py. its quite possible that your installing third party modules into the distros python in /usr/bin/python, in which case if zope's using /usr/local/bin/python you won't see them and you'll get import errors. if this is the case copying the third party modules into /usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages will solve the import errors, or moving the modules into the zope_dir/lib/python/ (or perhaps a subdirectory with an init) might do the trick. if you specifically want to run something through a custom python interp from zope you might need to use os.popen2 (or variant) in an external method, or setup sometype of interprocess communication via xml-rpc or an rdbms or shared file, etc. hope that helps kapil Gary Perez wrote: > > Hi. > > We've got Zope 2.2.2 installed on a Linux box.

Maybe, "get_page_title" is callable. In this case, e.g., "dtml-get_page_title;" is very different from "get_page_title". Try to replace "get_page_title" by "_['get_page_title']" at both places in your code. ___ 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 )
Re: [Zope] images in directories
I have a similar situation where I find myself way down in the tree structure and have to go up to a certain point and down again. Leaving "bad structuring" aside (actually its well structured in many other respects), all I could think of to get a hold of these objects was a whole bunch of nested "with" statements. They suck. Now what's with your PathHandler product? How would an appropriate method look like? I was thinking of a "walk2object" method rather than "showImage"... see I don't want to start at "/", I want to start whereever I like at that moment and still take the "/"-separated path info to "walk" to my object. I think this has more to do with elegance than with lazyness.
