[Zope] external mailhost
I am trying to set up Mail Host. I don't have a local SMTP server and would like to use the server of my ISP. However Mail Host does not allow for authentication. So my question: - Is there a way to transmit a password with Mail Host? - or, is there software to set up a local SMTP server ( WinNT 4 )?

[Zope] Trouble with dates in an External Method
I'm having trouble using dates in an external method. I can't get it to import the python DateTime module. I need to compare two dates which are in string form in the external method. I know that this isn't a good description of what I'm trying to do but I'm new to Zope development. If this should go to a different mailing list please let me know.

Re: [Zope] multiple unknown parameters -> ZSQL
this could be done in python in either an external method or python script/method. you can execute arbitrary SQL (which you would dynamically generate in python) on a database connection using the "query" method that is part of every database adapter. you need to - get a handle to your database connection by *calling* the database connection you have in your ZODB, like "db_conn = self.mydbconnection()" - once you have constructed the string carrying the SQL for one update statement you can pass it as argumant to the query method on the database connection, like "result = db_conn.query(sql_string)" looking at that page you put up you will have to create a SQL string for every student shown on the page and pick the correct variables from REQUEST for the SQL update statement. jens on 1/9/01 17:10, Lee at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hi, > > As usual, I'm finding this one hard to explain... so I've described it > with the aid of a diagram @ > http://homepages.strath.ac.uk/~aeu97172/h.htm > > I realise that this may be more of a burden on your time than a normal > request... but I'm hoping that some of you have met similar problems > before and can suggest the best way round the problem. > > Any comments would be greatly appreciated. > > Thanks very much, > > Lee > > -- > Lee Reilly > mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > ø?º°`°º?øø?º°`°º?øø?º°`°º?øø?º°`°º?ø > > HAVE SKILLS; WILL TRAVEL. > > I'm currently looking for an internship in the USA > in the field of web development.

[Zope] Object cleanup: is it possible?
We have a Product that contains images like so: application \ image collection \ image object There's going to be a lot of these images, and sometimes they're going to be big, so we're storing them outside the ZODB. The image object serves the image up in a variety of sizes, each of which is cached on disk alongside the raw image. We have a strong requirement that the only way to manipulate these images is through Zope. Our biggest problem is that there doesn't appear to be a nice way to clean up those files on disk when the Product is deleted from Zope. The obvious solution, using manage_beforeDelete, isn't appropriate, because the rename and cut operations will both result in _delObject which calls manage_beforeDelete. I consider this to be a bad design call since there's no way for _delObject / manage_beforeDelete to know wether the delete is permanent or "just a rename". The next solution, __del__, doesn't work either -- even after a ZODB pack operation, the __del__ method doesn't appear to be called. This also confuses me. What I've done is wrap the manage_delObject[s] method of the image collection object that holds the image objects, and it can call deleteImages on the subobjects. That's fine for actually managing the image objects within the collection, but doesn't help if someone deletes the image collection object. Any suggestions?

[Zope] slow DocumentTemplate (dtml) import speed
Hello, I am using the DocumentTemplate (dtml) portion of zope in a python program using cgi. The "import DocumentTemplate" step alone seems to take almost 1 (ONE) second on my hardware. This seems extremely high compared with the load time of python alone of about 0.3 seconds. To benchmark this, I made a simple test python script (time_test.py): #!/usr/bin/python import time t1 = time.time() ###import DocumentTemplate t2 = time.time() print "t1:%s t2:%s diff:%s" % (time.ctime(t1), time.ctime(t2), t2 - t1) Run as "time ./time_test" with the DocumentTemplate line commented out, the script takes an average of 0.330 seconds real time. If I uncomment the import statement, the script takes an average of 1.350 seconds real time and a 'diff time' of 0.9 seconds representing time spent importing DocumentTemplate. Now, I hope not to be laughed out of the list :-D, but my hardware is a Pentium 100 with 48 Meg of ram. I am running redhat 6.2 with python 1.5.2. My DocumentTemplate is extracted from Zope 2.2.2 and placed in my 'site-packages' directory. My questions: - Do people have any suggestions on how to make this process any quicker? - Are there any plans to speed up/optimize DocumentTemplate (I see there is already a cDocumentTemplate file, not sure what else can be done)? - I see there is a new version of Zope (2.2.5), does it have any major speed improvements in DocumentTemplate (the changelog and history files did not reflect this)? thanks, donfede ___ 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] Special-name of variables called 'name' or 'domain'
I've got some SQL method, and a folder structure, and am seeing some *very*
annoying results. Namely, seems to cancel out variable
assignments from an enclosing
/root
get_machine_hosts (SQL method)
get_host_aliases (SQL method)
show (dtml method)
/host
show (dtml method)
/alias
show (dtml method)
get_machine_hosts takes 'machineid' and returns 'name','domain','ip', e.g.
(for a 5-homed box) get_machine_hosts('535252'):
www,random.com,192.168.3.2
mail,hosting.com,192.168.3.3
news,random.com,192.168.3.4
sqldb,random.com,192.168.3.5
workstation,random.com,192.168.3.6
get_host_aliases takes 'ip' and returns 'name','domain' e.g.
get_host_aliases('192.168.3.3') [mail.random.com]:
'pop3','random.com'
'smtp','random.com'
'mail','random.com'
'imap','random.com'
But, I'm having problems with the 'in' and 'with' tags using the variable
'name'. The DTML methods are:
/root/show
/root/host/show
&dtml-ip;
&dtml-name;
&dtml-domain;
POINT A
POINT B
/root/alias/show
&dtml-name;
&dtml-domain;
Now, assuming I'm looking at machineid 535252 (mail.random.com). I get this:
| 192.168.3.3 | mail | hosting.com |
| | mail | hosting.com |
| | mail | hosting.com |
| | mail | hosting.com |
| | mail | hosting.com |
That is, the variable 'name' and 'domain' aren't set correctly. But, if I
modify /root/host/show as follows:
&dtml-ip;
&dtml-name;
&dtml-domain;
POINT A
&dtml-name;
&dtml-name;
POINT B
I get:
| 192.168.3.3 | mail | hosting.com |
| | pop3 | random.com |
| | mail | hosting.com |
| | imap | random.com |
| | mail | hosting.com |
| | smtp | random.com |
| | mail | hosting.com |
| | webmail | random.com |
| | mail | hosting.com |
It would appear that the tag wipes out the 'name' and
'domain' variables back to the values they had outside the tag, so calling /root/alias/show gives wrong data. Very
odd. *BUT*, if I use 'aliasname' and 'aliasdomain' as the variable names,
everything is OK.
WTF?
While I'm at it, is
really the best way to call a DTML method of a folder?
Regard,
Phil

Morten W. Petersen writes: > Is there anyone who could try to give an estimate of how long it would > take to add fuzzy logic (regexp-like) searching capability to the > ZCatalog? I do not think that "fuzzy logic" is strongly related to "regexp-like". Anyway. Fuzzy searching often means "finding matches with characters omitted, replaced or inserted". Zope's globbing vocabularies support wildcards '*' and '?'. To implement wildcard based searches efficiently, they index words under their two letter consitutents. When you now get a pattern, you derive from the pattern what two letter constituents the matching words must have and retrieve them. This defines a candidate word set. Then you check, whether the retrieved word really match the expression. You can extend this algorithm to get fuzzy searches.

RE: [Zope] ZDESIGN IDEAS = How to improve 'manage' ?
My view is that as a sysadmin, I rather give ZOPE superuser/manager the ability install products through ZOPE, rather than giving them access to the OS. Another view I have is that I do not want my developers to think about which platform they are working on. ZOPE runs on a variety of OSes and each one of then have their own way of providing file/directory security (or no security win9x). Zope should rely on its own security for its products. ..IMHO Mohan -Original Message- From: Martijn Pieters [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Martijn Pieters Sent: Tuesday, January 09, 2001 9:42 AM To: Mohan Baro Cc: Jason Cunliffe; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Zope] ZDESIGN IDEAS = How to improve 'manage' ?

Re: [Zope] MySQL connection woes
I don't know how to create a null login in MySQL, but I know a better solution. The last time I had a problem like yours I created a user in MySQL and used it connect Zope. In mysql you type: GRANT ALL ON my_database.* TO my_user IDENTIFIED BY my_passwd (The .* part is a wildcard meaning all tables in this database.) Then you can connect Zope using a connection string like this: my_user@localhost my_passwd Good luck, Luciano PS.

This is precisely what Zope's new cache management architecture is designed to do. Just create the site then install a cache manager object such as an "Accelerated HTTP Cache Manager", available in the StandardCacheManagers product. Visit the "Associate" tab of the cache manager to locate all images that should be served by Tux rather than Zope. Turn on the checkboxes. Voila! Accelerated HTTP cache managers set some HTTP headers on the response. The headers are recognized by downstream caches and the response is cached for a determined period.

[Zope] ZSQL database connection (ZPoPy) not giving expected results
Ok, here's the situation. I create a folderish object. I insert some info into the postgresql database related to this folderish object. I create a ZPopy database connection within this folderish object. All of this is done through a python method. If I do a query using this new database connection, select for rows I just inserted. The query comes back with no results. I can do this query using another ZSQL DB connection, and on the command line, it works fine. Caching is off for the query. Eventually, after 30 seconds to 4 minutes, all queries seem to work fine. This behavior is inconsistent, sometimes the queries work after no wait at all.

Yes, Tux can only serve static content, but images in dynamically created HTML pages behave exactly the same as images in static web sites. How should the web browser know that a page was served by a dynamic server? It gets every single image by sending a new HTTP request. So of course the images (and all other static stuff like sound files, PDF documents etc.) can be served by Tux after the corresponding HTML page was served by Zope!

RE: [Zope] Tux & Zope?
I have extensively looked over the documentation, and am in the midst of compiling for the first time on my PC. Haven't tried it already, though; my main reason, is that I operate most of my Linux servers on Sun hardware, and am waiting for the dust to settle on 2.4.0 before I start trying to work with Tux; Tux is (in theory) only tested for i386, thought I don't see any reason (offhand) it won't work on Linux/sparc (unless there are some endian issues I am not aware of with the kernel-space module). The main advantage to Tux is that it caches TCP checksums (for all the content it serves, I believe), reducing CPU load, which seems likes a good idea (especially if you have hardware - like Sun - where your CPU is a bigger bottleneck than the bus, I/O, etc). Anyway, as complicated as it sounds, I am going to be setting up some new servers that likely have a configuration that uses Tux on port 80 (serving images only), Apache on 8080 (serving static pages, and logging access), and ZServer on 9080. Tux would proxy to Apache, and once that was set up, I could set up an Apache mod_proxy connection to Zope using the ideas in the howtos. This way, I get fast serving of images and multimedia via Tux, a full Apache config, and Zope running with virtual hosts. Once I try this config, I will let everyone know how it works out. What I would really like to see is this: Images and multi-media that can be served by Tux, but managed by Zope, so that all content is managed, but serving the images and multi-media is really fast, and not reliant on the ODB. I thought I saw something about a product that is like OFS:File & OFS:Image, but saves the files to the filesystem - that kind of thing might work for such a config.

I think this is a political one. For me, the things that are really valuable on a web site are the data and the user information, which both are available through the web interface. At least if Zope runs as a user and has its own home directory, the additional damage that can be caused by people with file system access is not very high. O.k., they can shut down my server. They can do that by using "manage_shutdown" from the web anyway. Same with deleting all data on the server. IMHO a well-designed "over-the-web" installation concept would make Zope MORE secure, not less e.g.: - You can work with full SSL-encryption, maybe even client certificates. This is much more secure than TELNET or FTP. (Unfortunately, SSH/SCP, while being the "better TELNET/FTP" is not always an option, and it always opens up more than necessary) - People won't hack together their own solutions for the problem (with LocalFS installed and me having the rights to add LocalFS instances, it would take me not very long to "infiltrate" any Zope server.

RE: [Zope] Re: EMarket 0.1.04b1
Steve, I think that may be what I'm missing. I don't see any way to add MarketItems from within the marketItems folder. The only form is ShopperMarketItemAddForm which doesn't seem to let me actually add MarketItems and always returns the following message "You must be validated for submission first..." no matter who I am logged in as (Zope manager or EMartket Shopper). Is a ShopperMarketItem the same as a MarketItem? I'm aware that more effort is being put into 0.2 for obvious reasons so I don't want to take up too much more of your time. I just really don't need the power of the ZPattern version nor do I want to waste time trying to get ZPatterns installed. I have tried a few of the other e-commerce products and EMartet seems to have the best mix of simplicity and power. Thanks!!

[Zope] How to set a REQUEST variable inside a PythonMethod?
Hello all!
I have another question related with PythonMethod. This time I tried:
REQUEST.update({'NoRows': 4})
and I tried:
REQUEST['NoRows'] = 4
and I tried:
REQUEST.set('NoRows', 4)
but without success.
(I passed the REQUEST object in the parameter list.)
Anybody has set a REQUEST variable from inside a PythonMethod?

RE: [Zope] Caching/http-acceleration and proxying Zope-served content
I started using mod_proxy, because I needed the configuration options (redirection etc.) and squid wouldn't cache ssl stuff. It's running very well since about six months now. The downside is that it's really badly documented. BTW there is a new book by Ralf Engelschall that you can download for free from http://www.apacheref.com that also covers mod_proxy. Not in detail though. He calls mod_proxy apache's stepchild. Concerning numbers I gave some in my caching with mod_proxy howto (http://www.zope.org/Members/rbeer/caching). Ragnar >Hmm.

Cannot live without it :) The thing that I didn't understand from this (and the thing is still cloudy) is that there is One Acquisition Path for a request. When I call a Method through the web, I have proper path, so I can call Documents and Methods from each other. But when I call a Document through the web, I have "wrong" path - static path, and when I try to call a Method from the Document, the Method will use this static path. I thought the Method will use dynamic path, based on request (URL).

[Zope] I did a blunder now I can't access zope...
Hello... No, I'm not proud of myself. Anyway, here's what happened. I installed a product in the root and when it asked me about the base url, I typed an URL that isn't "attached" to zope, now I find myself trying to connect to zope as I would usually do but only receive "The requested URL /manage was not found on this server." I know this message is generated by Apache but even after changing Apache's configuration so the sub-domain that is refered is sent to zope, I still get that message sent by apache for a 404. If I remove the port number, I am getting the "normal" site (which is an apache only site). Now, from what I can guess, I have to remove the part I added as the base url in the Data.fs but I don't know how to do that. Sorry, I can't explain it better than that...

[Zope] Tux & Zope?
Hi all, Just one of those things that keeps popping up on my list of 'things I should try': Zope behind the Tux webserver. For those who do not know: Tux is a very fast webserver for Linux because it operates at kernel level. It can pass requests it can't handle to another server, ZServer for example.

You'll need to install the excellent SiteAccess Product to do virtual hosting from within Zope (I used to use Apache with mod_rewrite to do the virtual hosting, but it's much better to let Zope handle it). http://www.zope.org/Members/4am/SiteAccess2 One caveat is that virtual hosting doesn't work cleanly with the Zcatalog. This will be fixed in Zope 2.3, but if you aren't running 2.3alpha, and you are using the Zcatalog, then you'll need this patch: http://www.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/ZCatalogVirtualHostFix/FrontPage Kevin Teague http://www.bud.ca ___ 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 )

Hi there How can I create "multiple" web servers on Zope as in IIS? We have a few domains that resolve to the same IP address. When a user accesses eg. www.geospace.co.za they must get to a different site than when they access www.triangletyre.co.za even though both addresses resolve to the same IP address. In IIS you just create a new virtual web site that "responds" to the new domain name. I am not using Zope through IIS and would actually like to get rid of IIS altogether.

[Zope] Multiple select boxes saves selected id's even though the Objectsare deleted. are deleted.
I have a zClass with a multiple selection. The selected items are selected from a list of id's from a folder. They are then saved in the zClass as a list of strings. But when one of the selected items on the folder is deleted the id is still in the zClass. Naturally it should be deleted from the "selected" list automatically, but I don't think that is feasible. I would have to traverse a lot of different subfolders to see if an object was selected there. Is there a standard idiom for doing this? (Don's say zPatterns please as this won't help here.) Regards Max M -- Another way of explaining the same problem is here: Folder1 item1 item2 item3 item4 selectBox = ['item1', 'item2', 'item3', 'item4'] selected = ['item1','item2'] After delete of item1 from Folder1 Folder1 item2 item3 item4 selectBox = ['item2', 'item3', 'item4'] selected = ['item1','item2'] The problem is that 'item1' still is in selected. ___ 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 can easily do most all of the things you mention in zClasses. The most difficult items you are requesting though is calendaring and discussion. Currently there are no real good products available so I guess you will have to roll your own in a Python Product, and that can be a bit difficult to learn. The rest sounds like a 2-4 weeks job. maybe 4-6 weeks if depending on how newbie you are :-) For me the biggest bonus about Zope vs. closed system is not the $ savings but the gained flexibility and freedom. It might take a little longer to set up your own system in zope, but You will know it by heart afterwards and can easily change the sites.

RE: [Zope] Caching/http-acceleration and proxying Zope-served content
not sure if thats what you want, but squid _can_ act as a frontend to multiple backend-servers. check out the squid users guide (http://squid-docs.sourceforge.net/latest/html/book1.htm) specifically http://squid-docs.sourceforge.net/latest/html/x2544.htm which deals with "accelerator" options peter.

[Zope] Unidentified problem with SiteRoot
Hello all, I have a problem which i suspect is site root's problem. The scenario, I have folders F1, F1a and F2, where F1a is a child of F1 and F2 is on the same directory level as F1. Also F1 and F2 have their own DB-connections DB1 and DB2 respectively, which have the exact same properties/connection. Then... 1) i placed a SiteRoot in F1, 2) then removed it, 3) copied & pasted F1a into F2, 4) renamed the F1a in F2 to F2a, 5) create a SiteRoot in F1 again, 6) and create a SiteRoot in F2 i've also tried restarting Zope between steps 2 and 3 Then it seems that the ZSQL Methods in F2a are referring still referring to the MySQL DB connection in F1. I've tested it many tiems with otehr folders aswell, and it seems that they're all reacting the same way. In other words, it seems like once a SiteRoot has been created in the folder, the DB connections stick to it. I've also tried the "Undo" from Zope's Management Interface, but to no avail. Perhaps my intuition of all this is wrong altogether. Anyone out there experienced the same problem, or have any solutions to this problem?
