Re: [Zope] version 2.2.4 just blew up!

2000-12-05 Thread Chris McDonough

The Dr. Watson log won't help us at this stage.  Can you turn on debug
logging by inserting the following to the beginning of your Zope's start.bat
file:

set STUPID_FILE_LOG=var\debug.log

Then report back what comes up in the var\debug.log file when you click on
the link that crashes Zope, if anything.

Python is dying?  That's a little rude even given your frustration, dontcha
think?

Re: [Zope] the day of zope headaches

Yup, this is very likely.  The catalog does subcommits by default, which
take up lots of temp space if you're cataloging lots of stuff in a batch.

[Zope] 2.2.4 bombs

2000-12-05 Thread Jon Nathan

hi,

i have a couple old zope installations that i'm trying to replace.

i downloaded 2.2.4  and untarred/zipped it as /web/Zope-2.2.4-src/

i ran python w_pcgi.py and it seemed to go cleanly.  i want to use it
with apache, which is already installed and happy.  that's how my
other installations are set up.

when i run the start script, however, it dies thus:

any ideas to make it work?

View the HTML source for the error page - the Python traceback contained
in there will be more helpful. However, the last time I had an IOError
while re-indexing a ZCatalog was when Python was ran out of space in the
/tmp dir (4600 objects, 100 MB /tmp partition). What I did was edit
Python's tempfile.py file (contained at /usr/lib/python1.5/tempfile.py
on Debian systems) from:

attempdirs = ['/usr/tmp', '/tmp', pwd]

To: 

attempdirs = ['/var/tmp', '/usr/tmp', '/tmp', pwd]

What do you mean it doesn't work under ZEO?  Set it up just like zope.org.

Either create two storage servers or one that provides access to both
FileStorages.  Then write an external method for each storage, each of
which creates a ClientStorage and wraps a DB around it.  Then mount those
external methods.  Thus you don't even need to write MountedZEOStorage.

[Zope] Comment elimination...

2000-12-05 Thread Curtis Maloney


Greetings,

Whilst developing, i often  out some part of a document so I 
can test an replacement/option/something.  Sometimes, due to interruptions or 
just my poor memory, I don't remove the old code...

I was just wondering if there were some convenient way I could search all of 
my DTML[Documents|Methods] and ZSQL Methods, for comments, so I could review 
them?

Perhaps it's time I learned how to use ZCatalog?

Have a better one,
Curtis Maloney.

[Zope] Newbie question, help with navigation method

2000-12-05 Thread Richard Blumberg

I've a Zope newbie, trying to set up a Zope site at zope.org, and I'm 
running into problems with what seems like it should be a fairly 
simple navigation method.

I've replaced the standard_html_header and footer methods with my 
own, which create a simple two column table; I'm trying to get the 
navigation information into the left column. I've established a 
nav_title property on the two pages that I want to show up in the 
navigation list, with the values "Home" and "Biography", and I've 
written a nav_vertical method to display the list:







I've embedded a call to that method in the standard_html_header method:








   
 http://www.zope.org/Members/rblumberg/images/rbRight" width="50" 
height="60">
 
   
 
   
   
 


 

(The table cells are closed in the standard_html_footer.)

Now, the nav_vertical method works exactly as planned when I call it directly:

http://www.zope.org/Members/rblumberg/nav_vertical

The header method also displays correctly (even without the closing 
tags, at least in MSIE 5) when it is called directly:

http://www.zope.org/Members/rblumberg/standard_html_header

But the pages which call the new header don't display the navigation list:

http://www.zope.org/Members/rblumberg/index_html

Is this a bug in Zope, or am I doing something wrong?

Richard

So, what would you suggest for the following scenario?

o Site distirbuted via ZEO
o Using SiteAccess2 for virtual hosting sites under
  /vhosts/thissite /vhosts/thatsite
o each site is actually it's own full Data.fs

Under non-zeo, it's simple, use a mounted filestorage, and it works
quite well. Unfortunately, it doesn't work under zeo, for obvious
reasons. If I had time, I'd do a mountedZEOstorage, but time is too much
a precious commodity for the next few weeks/months. :/

Actually, I believe it's a known bug. I hit this problem on zope.org 
last week and searched the collector before going to report a bug. I 
found an entry that said something like "Catalog sort_on fails with 
Keyword index". Don't have the link, but I'm pretty sure it's in 
there somewhere.

You have not installed the Python MySQL module.  Depending on which MySQL 
Zope product you downloaded, this either came with it, or you will have to 
download it seperately.

Last time I installed a fresh Zope/Python combo, I used ZMySQLDA 1.2.0, which 
comes with the MySQLdb Python module sources.  I found it to be a fairly 
simple and painless install.

Previous versions did require you to download the MySQLdb module seperately.  
Both are on www.zope.org.

Re: [Zope] Large XML files

2000-12-05 Thread Phil Harris

Paul,

The XMLDocument type is rather 'expensive' and you may be able to 'get away'
with using a simpler type such as DTMLDocument.

If you don't need the DOMification of your XML when you put it into Zope
this is something i'd look at..

I have done this with large documents and then used an external method to
process them with XSLT, XPath etc.

Re: [Zope] Large XML files

2000-12-05 Thread Jim Hebert

You could check into the ExtFile product (search on zope.org) and see if
that makes a perf difference.

That said, just about anything on that setup is going to be slow!!
Please excuse the os advocacy, but given that this is likely all you'd
dream of running on this server anyways (ie it's not like it's also going
to be your Exchange server), you might consider putting something that
will leave more spare RAM and cpu time for Zope on that box, e.g. Linux or
some other OS more suited towards the low end server hardware market.

Or buy a nicer box to run this on. If you don't have existing unix skills
in-house then throwing money at hardware might be less expensive than
investing in human resources to get a Linux box going. (Whew, being
even-handed is so much harder than being an OS bigot...;-)

Sorry that's probably not what you wanted to hear. =)

Re: [Zope] Zope Beginner

2000-12-05 Thread Phil Harris

Mark,

Here's the line from my Zope start script, it may help:

"D:\zope\bin\python.exe" "D:\zope\z2.py" -X -w20080 -f20021 %1 %2 %3 %4 %5
%6 %7 %8 %9

This line turns off 'debugging' mode (note the absence of -D), it also shuts
down all servers by default (-X), then explicitly starts http on port 20080
(-w20080) and ftp on 20021 (-f20021).

You should also look at the docstrings in /z2.py for more options.

In theory (and maybe in practice) the socket should be faster since it does
not go through the networking process.  However, since it uses a local file,
Zope and Apache must be one the same system.  Using a TCP port would be
slower, but it allows you to run Zope and Apache on different machines.  As
to how much faster or slower, I have no idea if anyone has done any testing.

As for safest/recommended, avoiding the network is probably always safer
(although with the loopback, I'm not sure it makes any difference).  But if
you need to run them on different servers, you don't have a choice.

I've found mod_fastcgi very easy to configure in Apache and have had no
problems using it through a port.
___

thanks for the info! my co-worker just informed me that he thinks it is
faster to use the port when dealing with a firewall. since it seems easier
this way i guess i'll go with the port.

much appreciated!

i just performed the upgrade from 2.2.2 to 2.2.4 and it blew up after
running for a few minutes. it happened as i clicked the link to Debug
Information from the control panel. Zope does start up again and the same
thing occurs each time i click this link. i can send you the Dr. Watson
error log if you think it will help you but i prefer not to send it to a

[Zope] Large XML files

2000-12-05 Thread paul_s_johnson

I am testing the possibilities of delivering the content of  XML Documents
through the Zope environment.  Unfortunately, some of the proposed file are
rather large (up to 760KB) and just uploading them and viewing them on our
current Zope server is prohibitively slow.  Our server, running Z2 is a
blazing P133 running NT 4.0 with 32 MB of RAM (I get the bottom feeders).
Is the bottleneck the hardware; is there something I can do software-wise
to improve performance; or is development not yet advanced enough to handle
this scenario efficiently? Any opinions on this?

[Zope] Zope 2.3 plan updated...

2000-12-05 Thread Brian Lloyd

Hi all - 

We're gearing up for getting a new feature release out so 
for those interested I've updated the Zope 2.3 plan at:

http://dev.zope.org/Resources/zope_230_plan.html


The main changes from the prior version are that it is much 
more detailed, some items have been added and the item for 
updating ZDOM to DOM level 2 has been dropped (until there 
is a clearer justification for it).

I hope to make an alpha 1 release on Monday the 11th with 
the new Python Scripts and fixed user bootstrapping, among 
other things (see the plan for details).

I haven't yet been able to get this to work; I don't think it applies to

Re: [Zope] How to specify to z sql methods, the connection object to use at runtime...time...

2000-12-05 Thread Randall Kern

I haven't actually tried this, but it seems it should work:

/
/db1- folder
connection- a DB connection object to db 1
/db2- folder
connection- a DB connection object to db 2
query- a ZSqlMethod, set to use the connection 'connection'.  Note,
you may have to add a temporary DB connection to the root, to allow you to
setup these methods.  After you have created your methods, remove the
/connection object.

Then use urls like http://your.server/db1/query to run the query using the
first database connection, and http://your.server/db2/query to run query
using the second database connection.

Re: [Zope] string splitting in dtml

2000-12-05 Thread Mike Kelland

I tried what you recommended and got the following error:

Error Type: AttributeError
Error Value: __getslice__

The problem I think is that the variable is drawn from the database as type
date (Microsoft Access 2k) and somehow is cast into a date type.  Is there a
way to re-cast this variable as a string type?  Or is there another reason
it's not working (I've tried it with my other varibles pulled from the
database in the same query and it's only the date types that are giving this
error, all other variables work fine)?

I also tried the



solution but got the error:

Error Type: TypeError
Error Value: argument 1: expected read-only character buffer, instance found

Thanks very much for everyone's help so far!

The only way I see to do this with plain html is to just
make 2 forms, the second is served depending on the users
input on the first and has hidden input fields.

But if you decide to go with javascript, you might as well
do the whole logic in one page.
See for instance

or just enter some of the right words into google, there

I read Learning Python and still love it and would highly recommend 
it. The book is very good! Apart from that I'm using the Python

What I'm still missing is something like the perl cookbook but for Python :(

[Zope] On DTML and Python Script

2000-12-05 Thread Phill Hugo

Jason Leach pointed out that Document Template could include ASP/PHP
style Python escapes to embed code. This may seem a good idea at first
but part of the really nice thing about Zope is that it goes a fair way
to ensure you organise your work cleanly and seperate logic from the
layout.

In PHP I always use FastTemplate which offers pretty much only what
 does (that doesn't include  or anything "clever"). The benefit of having no logic in
your HTML is huge when you have multiple people working on the project.
The "creep" of template systems to hold more and more logic such as
Loops, Conditions etc is forgivable as it allows basic programming to be
done by the HTML people but strictly it isn't necessary as long a
variable insertion / tag replacement is possible.

If you are "having to [use] all those dtml tags" then you're probably at
the point where replacing that big chunk with 
is in order. This could be anything you want (Python method, External
Method, DTML method etc) which does the real logic and conditionally
returns its output to the master template (that content possibly from
another smaller, reused DTML method - it amazing how many sites use the
same text all over it (like Next 10, Prev 10 for example!).

At that point you've removed any fear of the HTML people walking over
your code with a bulldozer and it means they can update things while you
do.

What I'm suggesting is that <%, ,  and  tags could be argued to be
Bad Things but they are convenient in some cases (they are easy for HTML
writers to understand and can be used for simple things by them).

I don't really see the "convenience" of a Python code escape as its just
as easy to make a Python Method and pop  in its
place keeping things neat.

Still, I suppose it'd hardly matter if it was available, those who agree
with the above would probably ignore it, much as I ignore it in PHP and
use FastTemplate instead.

Yekk, no !  
I use Progress WebSpeed at work. Webspeed does something
similar to what you suggest, only with Progress 4GL
embedded in the HTML between certain tags.

This is OK at first, but it often gets ugly, especially where you
are jumping in and out of 4GL just to do simple conditionals or
iterations that DTML makes not too painful with  and
.

OK, I am one of those poor fools who is trying to do too much
in DTML. But it's not too bad as long as you factor it out well
and keep any messy code in DTML methods rather than
mixed in with your HTML.

Just my opinion, though.

Here's how it is implemented right now.  The details could change if
someone can see any holes.

When Zope is started, there is already some initialization code that
gets run and has the opportunity to modify the ZODB if necessary.  A
procedure has been added that allows the root user folder to set up the
initial user.

If there are no users listed in the root user folder, it checks for a
file named "inituser" which has the same format as the "access" file. 
If found, it adds that user and tries to delete "inituser".  If, on the
other hand, there is already at least one user, the code that checks for
"inituser" is never executed.

The file named "access" now defines the emergency user.  It is no longer
required to exist--if it doesn't exist, no one can log in as the
emergency user.

Creating the emergency user or the initial user is easily done with the
zpasswd.py script.  You use it just as before.  The only difference is
that wo_pcgi.py calls a method which generates "inituser" rather than
"access".

So, to create an emergency user, execute:

  python zpasswd.py access

Or to create the inital user, execute:

  python zpasswd.py inituser

The Windows installer is an unfinished detail: there's a script that
executes "python zpasswd.py access".  It needs to execute "python
zpasswd.py inituser" instead.

There will be some problems with alternate user folders.  They expect to
be able to call methods on the SpecialUsers.super object.  When there is
no emergency user, the value of SpecialUsers.super is None.  The quick
solution is to create an emergency user.  The long-term solution is to
fix the user folders.

Re: [Zope] FTP in HTML-Kit? Sussed it!

Thanks for your notes, especially the  "open as text" tip.

Very fast and easy.
HTML-Kit Preview is very useful too for changing forms in Zope.

Now if only someone would create an HTML-Kit library Zope extension complete
with all essential DTML and pythonisms for auto tag completion

For instance, I have this legacy page that needs to be

I open it in DW3, and it is a HUGE mess.

Re: [Zope] What difference between subclassing from OFS:Folder and ObjectManager

You can get both if you derive from ObjectManager and then use the
"Subobjects" tab in the Zope management interface.

[Zope] FTP for ZClass hierarchies

2000-12-05 Thread Jim Welch

As an avid emacs user I am delighted to be able to access DTML objects
via FTP. Recently I have been creating some ZClass hierarchies and
have been disappointed to discover that while I can access, via FTP,
the methods of a top-level ZClass, I can't access any methods of
ZClasses defined inside of a top-level ZClass. Is this a known
limitation of the FTP interface?

Interestingly, but perhaps merely coincidental, I notice that the URLs
of contained ZClasses as generated by the Zope management interface
have a "%20" immediately following the name of each contained ZClass
(but not the top-level ZClasss) - e.g,


http://blah.blah/Control_Panel/Products/newprod/toplev/propertysheets/methods/seclev%20/propertysheets/methods

Upon observing this, I had hoped that I could find success by
similarly modify my emacs FTP spec, as in:


[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/Control_Panel/Products/newprod/toplev/propertysheets/methods/seclev%20/propertysheets/methods

or,

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/Control_Panel/Products/newprod/toplev/propertysheets/methods/seclev 
/propertysheets/methods

(yes, I used C-q space)

But neither of these worked.

It is by design.  If you were to mount the root of a Data.fs, you'd be
mounting an Application object with no ID.  This would play havoc with the
pseudo-filesystem.

The correct solution is to make it so folder objects do not contain their
own ID (but rather determined by the parent folder) and make Application
objects go away, replacing them with simple Folder objects.

[Zope] Sort broken on zope.org site...

2000-12-05 Thread Darin Lee

Zopistas,

Following up on my question yesterday, regarding sorting on the results columns of 
keyword/text based searches, I have noticed that if I do a text search on the zope.org 
site and then try to sort on a column - the same error comes up:

Error type:  TypeError
Error value: loop over non-sequence

I looked through the collector - but couldn't find anything related to this issue. 
Does anyone have any insight on how to fix this?

Thanks,
-Darin Lee

RE: [Zope] FTP in HTML-Kit? Sussed it!

2000-12-05 Thread Paul Browning


Like others I was a bit puzzled as to how to Save As FTP
in HTML-Kit. I've just downloaded build 290 and got it
all working (the stuff may have lain undiscovered in
earlier verions - RTFM .).

The keys to cracking it are:

1. Go Workspace -> Add FTP Server/Folder -> Add FTP Server.
   Do the obvious (all familiar to Homesite users).
   A blue coloured ftp source will appear in the File pane
   on the RHS. Expand/collapse trees to navigate to the
   file you want to open.

2. Right-click and "Open As Text". Haven't yet fathomed
   the significance of this as opposed to other options.
   What I do know is that "Save" then does the business -
   saves it back to your FTP source.

As a 24-day-old (6 days to go ) Homesite evaluation
user I'm really, really impressed so far with HTML-Kit.
My thanks to Phil Harris et al for the tip.

A clean approach would be subclassing the zsql-method
for your purpose. I would not recommend a free-form
string as argument for the Datasource. May be an integer index 
(first, second, third... database server) 
or something like that?

I actually got bit by this with what I suspect was a web browser

_every_ single button. Double-plus ungood - I plan to make a patch

Deriving from OFS:Folder will only give you global meta types in the
