[Zope] Critical System Hosed, Plan B - upgrade zope, convert db
Okay, I accept that Zope is a mysterious god that requires sacrifice. And I wasn't able to solve the mysteries of how to get it up and running again with my old data after an unintentional "upgrade." However... I can upgrade Python from 2.4.2 to 2.4.4 and upgrade Zope from 2.7.2 to 2.10.5, get that working, and then hopefully convert my old data. I can handle the python and zope upgrades, but have no idea how to take my old zope database and use it with my brand new zope installation. Any ideas?

have you used locate or any other utility to make sure you only have one Zope
installed, like "locate zope.conf" ?

[Zope] Critical system hosed (was: Upgrade to 2.7.2 results in all content unavailable)
Nope. No errors, with zopectl or in event.log. Starts happily, though clearly not pointing at my old content. Though it would seem /var/lib/zope/etc/zope.conf has the following correctly defined: %define INSTANCE /var/lib/zope %define ZOPE /usr/lib/zope instancehome $INSTANCE And my data files appear to be at /var/lib/zope/var/Data.fs with appropriate permissions and ownership. The file hasn't been touched since the time I did the upgrade, though the lock file in the same directory has. Still though, I get the "Resource not found" screen from every page I attempt to access. The university library relies on zope, so getting this fixed is the highest priority. As for why version 2.7.2? Well, I didn't intend to update at all, but an errant up2date, the RHEL rpm updater, did it for me. And since the previous sysadmin built it from source and possibly put some things in non-standard places, disaster strikes. And 2.7.2 was apparently the highest version for which rpms were available. I am concerned that an upgrade to the latest version would take days (maybe weeks) of work to reconcile differences, and resolve problems and dependencies. And worse case, it might never see all our zope data again. The highest priority here is to get it working ASAP. W.

From your description I can't tell if you are already populating the two column page from a database or if it is a static html page. If I understand your issue correctly you can do all this with your database. You may have to add more columns to provide the interaction you need. I have a similar situation with a three column subjects page where clicking on each subject brings up a page with a list of online databases and descriptions for each. Within each description is a link to the online database. Again, if I understand your issue, have your two column page be created from a db that contains the a record number and the drug name. That template can build a link based on the record number to another template and the second template would query the database for a description field or whatever. so the first page would build its contents sorta like this. same thing can be done in pagetemplates. You can see my example at http://www.library.appstate.edu/vdb/subjectgeneral05.html The list of subjects comes from a database and there are three select statements to make the three columns, select the first third, second third, and then the last third and use css. Each subject link to another template that selects data from the main table based on subject table's related field. And, on that second page you can narrow down the results by media type such as book, newspaper, audio, etc. which is a field in the database title table. Let me know if I misinterpreted your request, as I get older this becomes more frequent ;-) > > And another query, how can i select text from a dropdown box.

If you click on a letter at the top you will see a list box on the right which uses a javascript called jumpmenu and OnChange which should work or be close to what you want.

[Zope] Re: [Plone-developers] the grand reunion
hi yuri, when setting up a zope/zeo task and everything was still a bit of a challenge (at least to me) we tended to have everything in one big instance that served some 20 low traffic sites. since then setting up a site with all the tools it needs has become a trivially easy and quick to execute task. we have converted nearly all these sites to have their own instance. I would not do it differently anymore .. robert Yuri schrieb: Hi!

[Zope] Re: Conditional dtml-boundary in dtml-sendmail
The email library should be available to use with a Script (Python) and
can be done all within the ZMI. Otherwise maybe use dtml-try?
Well, I should have mentioned this: the zope installed on the server is
2.8.x. Yes, it is old, but it is because all the page uses an own CMS
based on silva, which isn't compatible with newer versions.
I tried this:
import email
and it worked; however, as soon as I tried this:
from email.MIMEText import MIMEText
msg = MIMEText('Sending mail through python module')
or
import email
msg = email.MIMEText.MIMEText('Sending mail through python module')
An Unauthorized exception comes. So, I guess MIMEText is protected at
least on 2.8.x. But I guess in 2.11.x is protected as well, or am I
wrong?
Thanks for your reply. I guess there is no way of achieving what I want
on dtml, so, I will try to do it an external method and try to convince
people there to store it on the server or I will have to do it on my
own server and embebbed it on an iframe or call an external link.
Best regards
Josef

In this particular example, python's email package has a very OO approach to generating emails. Yes, that's what I hate from the dtml thing; it looks ugly :-( The DTML approach relies on you remembering to put in the right statements for the right constituent email parts in the right places. It's easy to make mistakes and generate emails that won't work with most clients. It's also harder to generate emails with the correct headers (Date, Message-ID, etc) than it should be, so you're more likely to pump out email that mtas consider to be spam. Actually, I did several mistakes: first, if you include a blank line just after finishing defining the email settings, ie: "To, From, Content-Type, etc, you will get your email, but in a format that you can't read. The second problem was with the unicode: first I got the characters wrong on the email subject, but on the mail's body were ok, then I change something and got them good on the subject, but on the body non-ascii characters were dropped. After lots of testing, I finally saw that you have to define content-type everywhere: on the mail headers and also on the text-mime contents. Then you have to encode all your strings to utf-8. The DTML approach also makes attaching files a living hell... Yep, I agree on this. You can't dynamically set the number of attachments and even if you don't submit a file on your form, zope will send an empty file with a strange name. Well, I guess I will do an external method on my own server and then try to convince the people owning the machine where the page is hosted to include it.

Re: [Zope] Help writing test where bobobase_modification_time changes
Thanks for the tips Chris and Dieter, I actually solved it in a very simple way: from OFS.Image import File from time import time class MockFile(File): """ This file works the same as a normal File expect that in manage_edit() the internal modification time is set immediately. Normally Zope objects get their internal modification set when the transaction manager commits. """ def manage_edit(self, title, content_type, precondition='', filedata=None, REQUEST=None): # here's the mock hack, we set the _p_mtime NOW instead of letting # the transaction manager do it at the end. self._p_mtime = time() return File.manage_edit(self, title, content_type, precondition=precondition, filedata=filedata, REQUEST=REQUEST) This worked beautifully in the integration test.
