[Zope] python help needed

insertestimatesandtargets() is a ZSQLmethod. When the call to this
method results in an error the script stops and not all data is
inserted. Without an error all the data is inserted.
So how can I make this script skip over errors and continue? The reason
is that there may already be some data in the database table that I want
to preserve.

The try/except block should prevent the script from failing when calling
the ZSQL method (assuming your indenting *is* correct in the python
script [look for mixed tabs/spaces, since in the email some of your
indents are 8 and some are 4]).
No all correct - Thunderbird not allowing me to edit the text.
Your other option is to do transaction sub-commits manually (there's
plenty of google links for how to do this).
You probably can't do this directly from a python script, you'll have to
setup an External Method to do it (or alter the security for the
transaction machinery).
Yes, thanks I thought that was the problem. I've already sorted it with
external methods.

Firstly let me say that I do not wish to relight the ZPT vs DTML argument, only to make a few points. I find this an extraordinary attitude coming from someone so important to this community. I am sure there are many developments out there relying on DTML and I am also sure that the developers are earning a living from those developments. Will employers be happy that the technology used for their sites is dead ? Will they continue to pay these developers? Can you give one reason why DTML is bad that is not based on personal preference, presentation tools or the cognitive ability of developers to understand where variables are coming from? Does it not work if used properly? If someone comes to Zope and prefers to use DTML then let him, don't criticise instead of help him. Zope is a fantastic piece of software, however it is used, and its use should be encouraged. I prefer DTML and always have done and always will, no matter what this list says and I am sure there are many more like me. DTML is available and is used, let's support it properly on this list. While I was learning Zope I had many questions, but I had to work most of them out myself, not wanting to get lambasted again on this list for using DTML.

[Zope] zope stops responding
Following a hard disk crash 2 weeks ago we have installed Zope onto a new server and all was fine until yesterday morning when Zope stopped responding and required a restart to get it working. It did the same at 3-30pm today. We are using Zope 2.9.0 on Centos 5.1 on a quad Zeon server with 4gb. Ram. At the moment the server is in quite heavy use with teachers trying to write reports for a deadline tomorrow. These are sent to a Postgres DB via psycopg. There is nothing in Z2.log or event.log to point me to the problem. I am therefore asking for advice on the sorts of things that can cause Zope to stop responding and whether there is anything we can do to mitigate against such an event.

As you might imagine: everything depends on the resources: Ram, diskspace, CPU. A Zope instance might take as little as 80MB Ram or up to 2GB per process. A site might consume no CPU, a Zope-based p0rn site might require several machines...so basically we can not give a valid answers..everything depends on a lot of parameters and there is no Zope formula.

Re: [Zope] silly DTML question: in test
if foo in (select foo_col from table where x=y)
then z='t'
else z='f'
I tried putting the simple SELECT query into a zSql and then calling it
like:
dtml-call REQUEST.set('foo_list',IfShowNextDoor())
dtml-if expr=foo in foo_list
dtml-call REQUEST.set('z','t')
dtml-else
dtml-call REQUEST.set('z','f')
/dtml-if
How about checking the database table for foo rather than the result set:
ZSQL method name=select
argument=foo
select foo_col from table where foo_col =dtml-sqlvar foo type=string
then do:
dtml-in select
dtml-call REQUEST.set('z','t')
dtml-else
dtml-call REQUEST.set('z','f')
/dtml-in
If the variable is in table then dtml-in returns a result set and the
dtml-call REQUEST.set('z','t') is called, if not the dtml-else is called.

[Zope] external method strangeness
Can anyone explain what is happening here. I am using Saxon to transform
an xml file(source) using a stylesheet(style) the result is then written
to Postgres. The contents of source are uploaded in Zope and passed to
the external method as a string. When I run this external method:
import psycopg, string, re, subprocess
def scholarpack_xml_transform(source):
f=open('/opt/scholarpack/ancillary/source.xml','w')
f.write(source)
f.close
source= '/opt/scholarpack/ancillary/source.xml'
style='/opt/scholarpack/ancillary/style.xml'
source1=source.replace('apos;','`')
source2=source1.replace('NLPGaddress','BS7666address')
p=re.compile(\')
source3=p.sub( '`' , source2)
r =
subprocess.Popen(['/opt/scholarpack/ancillary/jre/bin/java','-jar','./saxon.jar',source3,style],
stdout = subprocess.PIPE,cwd = '/opt/scholarpack/ancillary/')
r.wait()
transformed = r.stdout.read()
transformed1=transformed.replace(',)',')')
conn = psycopg.connect(dbname=scholarpack user=scholarpack)
curs = conn.cursor()
do=curs.execute(transformed1)
do
conn.commit()
conn.close
I get a programming error thrown from the conn.commit() line and the
method fails. However when I run the following script externally to Zope
after the Zope failure (so that source.xml exists) the DB write is
successful.
#!/opt/scholarpack/python/bin/python
import psycopg, string, re, subprocess
source='source.xml'
style='style.xml'
source1=source.replace('apos;','`')
source2=source1.replace('NLPGaddress','BS7666address')
p=re.compile(\')
source3=p.sub( '`' , source2)
r =
subprocess.Popen(['/opt/scholarpack/ancillary/jre/bin/java','-jar','./saxon.jar',source3,style],
stdout = subprocess.PIPE,cwd = '/opt/scholarpack/ancillary/')
r.wait()
transformed = r.stdout.read()
transformed1=transformed.replace(',)',')')
conn = psycopg.connect(dbname=scholarpack user=scholarpack)
curs = conn.cursor()
do=curs.execute(transformed1)
do
conn.commit()
conn.close
Can anyone point me in the correct direction?

[Zope] os module on different os's
I have a Zope application that runs on WinXP and Debian sarge without problems. I am using os.popen and popen2 to run locally installed applications and use their output in Zope (particularly aspell and diction). On Ubuntu Dapper and FC5 however, these os calls fail. Is there a problem with recent Distros and this module? Python version is 2.3 on all systems but I tried 2.4 on FC5 and that failed too. regards garry ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

I would use ZPT if I could see a valid reason to do so. The example above is unfortunatly a bit bad from app design view. You should either do the comparison in your ZSQL Method or wrap the call to the ZSQL method in a simple python script. Then all your ZPT reduces to: select name=groupabbrev option tal:repeat=group here/getpastoralgroups tal:attributes=value group/groupabbrev; selected group/selected tal:content=thisgroupabbrev Example /option /select Which is imho much better to read then the code above. All you need to do is to deliver True/False, None/Something for the selected field. Not doing the comparison in your Template (no matter if DTML or ZPT) really makes live easier. You should try to get your Application right independend of any HTML output. (e.g. you can call the scripts/ZPTs directly to find out whats going on) HTH Tino Wildenhain The comparison is dynamic. The user selects an option, that option is passed to a formhandler and hence back to the referring method. How could I not do the comparison in this method? If it could be done in a python script as you say, why should I inject another layer of complexity into my application when the one dtml method will do the job? imho such a problem as selected in selects should have a well documented solution as many developers will need it and why should each one have to find the solution for themselves? I think Zope is the most important technology on the Internet at present, with the possibility to become really huge, but if every developer has to search so hard for solutions as I have had to, it will forever be a niche product. regards Garry ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
