[Zope-dev] LoginManager Acquisition Problem
Greetings Fellow ZoPeople, I'm having some difficulty with Acquisition of security settings within LoginManager protected folders. I'm using the latest CVS of Zope and LM 0.8.8b1 with the included ZPatterns and Plugins. It was necessary to apply a patch (from Luca Mearelli on this list) on HTTPRequest.py to actually create the LM folder without raising a NameError exception on 'path.' I previously worked all the wrinkles out of my UserSource, etc., under Zope 2.1.2., so my difficulties in this case are purely upgrade related. Folders/Objects thusly: / (Root Folder) test (Test Folder) acl_users (LoginManager) index_html (Test Page) If I change the security settings on index_html to allow access from a test account role, all works fine. If however, I change the security settings on the test folder instead of index_html, it does not have the expected effect and I get the forbiddenpage, as if acquisition of these settings were not working. I did not turn off "Acquire Settings" on index_html. Pretty much all such settings have been left at the default settings except for adding the new roles to the test folder and enabling them in either the test folder or on the index_html object as indicated. As with may other things Zope Python, I don't understand yet how LM interacts with the mechanics of acquistion and security settings. Has anyone else tackled this yet who could provide some insights and/or a fix?

There should be a "dtml-in" argument to switch off this special treatment. If I had your problem, I would go for such a solution (extending "dtml-in"). It should be easier than to work around the special treatment in DTML and it would help the Zope community as a whole. If you do not want to go this way, I would suggest to put a feature request into the Collector.

[Zope-dev] [ANN] Zope 2.2 patch for cDocumentTemplate/Acquisition bug
Appended is a patch for the cDocumentTemplate/Acquisition bug.
Usually, this bug manifests itself by an "AttributeError: __call__"
for a folder object. The usual context is:
DTML Document:
.
dtml-with folder !-- here is the Attribute Error --
/dtml-with
.
The patch modifies "C" code. This means you need a Zope source
distribution to apply it and then you must regenerate Zope.
Almost surely, the patch is not yet complete:
The code in "cDocumentTemplate.c" looks like (Python emulating
"C" code):
if callable(o):
if hasattr('isDocTemp') and o.isDocTemp:
o= o(None,md)
else: o= o()
The remaining problem is that 'isDocTemp' might be acquired
and does not belong to "o.__call__". In this case, "o"
might be called with the wrong number of parameters.
I would expect, that the problem disappears, when the "isDocTemp"
test is performed with "o.aq_base" rather than "o". But
I am not sure.
Maybe, an acquisition expert can look into this remaining
issue.

Re: [Zope] UML
Hi! I also don't know which question Douglas ment (see bottom of page) , but both should be worth a short (or not so short) answer from a DC guru. We for our current project use ObjectDomain (www.objectdomain.com) as case tool, but do not generate code for python or ZClasses with the tool by now, we use it just for drawing the models. The problem with ObjectDomain is that it is a nice tool, but: - its sort of unstable, sometimes it crashes and eats up parts of the model :( - I don't know if the guys still work on the project. Since end of april you can still download the Beta od Release 3, but nothing new on their site since then - lots of other bugs (e.g. export to Rational Rose is buggy) Since ObjectDomain is customizable through JPython it should be possible to make it able to generate/reverse engineer ZClasses (has anybody done that already?) Do you still use ObjectDomain at DC?

The point in favor of a semi-official draft copy PDF is that it gives us a common reference frame for reviews and feedback. The PDF would mean everybody has the same page and line numbers, while HTML has no such concept. Hmmm. It would be pretty easy to cook up a script to number all the P tags and include that number in the HTML as comments or, even better, anchors so you can directly link to a paragraph).

[Zope] Problems with LoginManager 0.8.8b1
Hello, I am having an odd problem with LoginManager 0.8.8b1 and am writing the list in the hopes that someone can either help me out, or confirm that I've encountered a bug. I am running Zope 2.2.2 with Python 1.5.2 on a Linux box. I installed LoginManager as described, and compiled DynPersist and so forth for ZPatterns. All seems to be working well. I created a temporary folder called 'sandbox', inside of which I instantiated a LoginManager. In its UserSource (a Generic User Source), I created four Python Methods (with Python Methods v0.1.7): --- userAuthenticate paramsself, REQUEST, username, password/params if username == 'XXX' and password == 'XXX': return 1 else: return 0 --- userExists paramsself, REQUEST, username/params if username == 'XXX': return 1 else: return 0 --- userDomains paramsself, REQUEST, username/params return [] --- userRoles paramsself, REQUEST, username/params if username == 'XXX': return ['Manager', 'Member'] else: return ['Member'] Once done, I pointed my browser to http://myhost/sandbox/index_html. This method is a standard DTML Method, inluding standard_html_header and footer and putting some text in the middle. I get the following error: Traceback (innermost last): File /usr/local/zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 222, in publish_module File /usr/local/zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 187, in publish File /usr/local/zope/lib/python/Zope/__init__.py, line 221, in zpublisher_exception_hook (Object: Traversable) File /usr/local/zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 171, in publish File /usr/local/zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/mapply.py, line 160, in mapply (Object: index_html) File /usr/local/zope/lib/python/ZPublisher/Publish.py, line 112, in call_object (Object: index_html) File /usr/local/zope/lib/python/OFS/DTMLMethod.py, line 172, in __call__ (Object: index_html) File /usr/local/zope/lib/python/DocumentTemplate/DT_String.py, line 528, in __call__ (Object: index_html) KeyError: standard_html_header Zope can't find standard_html_header. I am guessing the acquisition path is getting hosed somewhere along the way. If I simply delete acl_users from sandbox (my LoginManager), index_html works fine. Moreover, it is not just standard_html_header that I can't acquire. I created a DTML Method called foo, and could not acquire it, either. Any ideas? --Jeff --- Jeff K.

Re: [Zope] Where is the code?
I have played with Zope and got everything working. It is however not clear to me how the code (DTML and so on) is merged into Zope and where it is kept. Would gurus out there point this to me? thanks. DTML and Zope (code) objects are kept in the object database. It is in zopehome/var/data.fs on your filesystem. If you create a new object, Zope creates a new instance of a class that is in Zope. They are defined in Products. The products are visible in your zope site at http://your.site/Control_Panel/Products Zope products/classes may be defined in Python modules. In that case the modules live in the zopehome/lib/python/Products directory. They may also be defined in ZClasses, which are defined completely through the web. They are not visible on the filesystem, only in Zope itself. I don't know whether that was your question, but DTML is interpreted at runtime by the Zope system. It takes the dtml bits from your template and returns the filled in template. hth Rik ___ 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] ZServer serving CGI by itself
Eric, Thank you very much for the example code. That basically does what I want. However, I have a couple of added complexities. First, I have a lot of scripts, not just one. I'd like to have the equivalent of a ScriptAlias in Apache, where I can tell Zope to treat everything in a certain directory as a CGI script. Second, my scripts do funky things like set cookies for authentication. So I need to tell Zope to basically get out of the way after calling the CGI script. (Specifically, I don't want Zope sending the HTTP header.) Third, some of my scripts are long running processes and I'd like to be able to send results back to the client unbuffered. With Apache 1.3.x, I'm able to run Python scripts with the -u flag to the Python interpreter to force unbuffered output (i.e. you see the progress instead of having to wait for the script to finish). I'm thinking of writing a CGIScript product to handle this. My idea is that I could add a CGIScript object to any Zope folder, setting parameters as appropriate. Parameters could include: 1) name of CGI script to execute on host machine or name of directory containing CGI scripts 2) buffer output 3) script sends HTTP headers 4) environment variables 5) exception handling Has a general CGI product in Zope already been done? I've already written a few external methods in testing Zope, which is easy enough, but haven't yet tried to write a product. How hard is it? Anyone have any advice (aside from go with the flow and run Zope behind Apache)? Thanks, Fred P.S. Is standard_error_message broken in Zope 2.2.2? I couldn't figure out how to use error_value without the code in lib/python/ZPublisher/HTTPResponse.py throwing in extra html tags. I finally just edited that file and things seem to be working. Running with or without the -D flag didn't make any difference. Eric Walstad wrote: I have a C++ program I run from Zope and then return the results to Zope. Just like you described, I farm the work out to an external method which runs the CGI, grabs the results and hands them back to Zope. Be sure to hard code the line that calls your CGI. Otherwise, the External Method could be used to call any (potentially damaging) code on your Linux box.

[Zope] insert but updates don't work
but get an authentication challenge that I can not pass. Is there something special about sql updates? I haven't used SQL in Zope but I experienced the same thing, an authentication request that cannot be satisfied even by the superuser account. For me I found that it happened when I was in a particular dtml-with block and I referred to the id property of the current object. I changed my dtml-var id to dtml-var title_or_id and the problem went away. I think there may be a bug in Zope regarding accessing the id properties of certain objects. I hope this is some use to you, it may be that you have a completely different problem though. I would be interested to hear the outcome once you get it working and work out what the problem was.

Re: [Zope] Where is the code?
Thanks Rik, You answered my question perfectly. This was my guess and found the Data.fs.

Even though it is great performance improvement to load the db in RAM at run time, do you know of an other benefits?

Re: [Zope] Question about dtml-in
Sean McGrath wrote: Hello all, I have a question about the dtml-in tag. When it is iterating over a sequence, and the items in the sequence happen to be tuples containing exactly two items, then dtml-in places the first item from the sequence in sequence-key, and the second item goes in sequence-item. If the items in the sequence are not tuples of two items, then sequence-item contains the whole item. For example, if I have: dtml-in "[(1,2),(3,4),(5,6)]" dtml-var sequence-item /dtml-in then I get 2,4,6 when I view this. The 1, 3 and 5 have been assigned to sequence-key. Now, if I change the dtml to be this: dtml-in "[(1,2,3),(3,4,5),(5,6,7)]" dtml-var sequence-item /dtml-in then I get (1,2,3)(3,4,5)(5,6,7) which is what I would expect. I think the reason for this behaviour is to do with iterating over dictionaries, but I'm not sure. The problem I have is this: I have code which retrieves data from a database, and the result is a list of tuples, with each tuple corresponding to a record, and each item in the tuple corresponding to a field. I don't know in advance how many fields will be in the record. I want to iterate over the records and fields, wrapping them in a html table. If the database I'm talking to happens to return a list of records with two fields, ie a tuple of two items, I have to handle this differently than any other case, which makes for some ugly code. I haven't been able to find any way to avoid this, unless I'm missing something. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Regards, in addition to Dieter Maurer's suggestion of fixing this behavior in dtml-in, another possibility is to do the work in a web python method, and directly access the Result object from the query to generate the html.

In other roles, I get a error message which says that that object(instance of my ZClass) doesn't support the paste operation. The work-around is: to set the proxy role of a wrapper DTML-method ( which calls manage_pasteObjects) to be "Manager". I think this work-around gives too much permissions. It implies that user can paste everywhere, doesn't it? My question : is there any better way or probably right way to do the same thing?

I've added more updates on documentation and worked in the comments recieved from Shane. To help you help us, I added some text on where we need the most attention, check the CurrentIssues for more info. http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/DocumentationProcess/FrontPage This process will define how we create documentation at Digital Creations, and will have far-reaching effects on how each of us contributes, maintains, and understands documentation. So far, Amos and I have proposed a prototype documentation process for synthesis, authoring, editing, reviewing, delivering, and maintaining documentation based on our experiences writing the Zope Book. We have tried hard to be as realistic as possibly in defining a very workable process, but our experience is obviously limited to one artifact, and the pain of living with no real process to date. We would really like to hear what you all have to say about our proposal and our prototype. If you think our prototype has holes in it, please leave your comments in the wiki and we will take them very seriously. We would like to hear comments from: The PythonLabs folks, since they have lots of experience authoring, maintaining and delivering extremely useful documentation. The ZDP folks, who represent the segment of the community most interested in documenting Zope. The DC geeks, since this process will effect, fundamentally, how we all do our jobs. The community developers, since they represent an audience for whom we have little documentation, and where we will focusing much of our upcomming efforts. The community users, since they represent the need for the highest clarity, best documentation, and because they represent the majority audience. In other words, we want to hear from you all!

distribution to apply it and then you must regenerate Zope.
Almost surely, the patch is not yet complete:
The code in "cDocumentTemplate.c" looks like (Python emulating
"C" code):
if callable(o):
if hasattr('isDocTemp') and o.isDocTemp:
o= o(None,md)
else: o= o()
The remaining problem is that 'isDocTemp' might be acquired
and does not belong to "o.__call__". In this case, "o"
might be called with the wrong number of parameters.
I would expect, that the problem disappears, when the "isDocTemp"
test is performed with "o.aq_base" rather than "o". But
I am not sure.
Maybe, an acquisition expert can look into this remaining
issue.
