[Zope] New user - couple of questions
Hi to all, I'm a new Zope user/developer ... Zope has impressed me very much! Ihave a couple of questions. I want to build a new intranet site for my company using Zope, but: 1. How can I import and use Python modules For example I want to use the function sleep(secs) that resides in the time module. I wrote this code: import time def hello(self): sleep(10) return "I'm Back!!" but when I call the external method bounded with the hello function an error occours!! 1st. Have I to install the time module? - if yes where can I found it and where can I install it? 2nd. How do I have to call the sleep function? 2. I want to build an application that use the database transection to update rows. I use SQL server that support DB transactions. where can I build SQL transactions with Zope? do I have to build a ZSQL method with multiple SQL calls? .. for example: ... begin transaction update t_cliente set primaetichinterna = 'mia' commit Am I sure that the transaction will work (if another user use the same method at the same time)? How can I test if a transaction has been committed or aborted? Thanks VERY MUCH in advance Paolo Quaglia Sitek Spa Italy Paolo QuagliaInformation Technology CoordinatorSitek S.p.A.[EMAIL PROTECTED]

[Zope] Last day of Month
Hi everibody Is there some tricky way to know the last day of the month of a DateTime object? for ex: if my DateTime object is 12/12/2000 is there a method or a function that return the last day of the month? (in this example 31) Thanks a lot Paolo QuagliaInformation Technology CoordinatorSitek S.p.A.[EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: [Zope] ODBC Connection
Hi Emmon I don't well understand the exact moment the error occurs: If you correctly have the ZODBCDA entry in the product list, you should have a new entry in the available objects list. Now you have to create a new datasource with the win32 ODBC manager (in control panel). then go to a folder and add a new ZODBC Database connection and chose the created ODBC Datasorce for me this work well ...

[Zope] Advanced Transactions:
Hi All, I'm building a high transaction traffic db application using Zope. I used for this tests two DB: MSAccess 97 and SQL Server 7.0 with the ZODBCDA product I have made some tests and I have found this: The test is: I have two DTML document called Test1 and Test2 I have 2 ZSQL Queries called Select1 and Select2 I have an external method (which id is Wait) that call the time.sleep(10) #it sleeps 10 seconds Test1 calls Select1 and then the Wait() Test2 calls Select2 First transaction test: Select1 and Select2 queries are equal:= select * from Users where name='example' I call test1 in a browser and immediately after test2 in another Browser. RESULT: Test2 wait the end of test1 before the page was displayed Second Transaction test: Select1 = select * from Users where name='example' Select2 = select * from Products where id='example' I call test1 in a browser and immediately after test2 in another Browser. RESULT: Test2 wait the end of test1 before the page was displayed!! Third Transaction test: Select1 = select * from Users where name='example' on the Access Connection Select2 = select * from Products where id='example' on the SQL sever Connection I call test1 in a browser and immediately after test2 in another Browser. RESULT: Test2 wait the end of test1 before the page was displayed!! :( Now Summarizing: I think the Zope transaction Server works in every Zope operation. This is good, but it seems that it uses a bad locking method. I mean when I read a DB (usually a select) I wouldn't to lock the entire DB and I would let the other DB session free to call select statements!! Am I right?? Or I do some mistake??

[Zope] More on DB Transactions
Reading the [EMAIL PROTECTED] archive I found one message with an interesting sentence: [Message] > I am currently considering and evaluating Zope as one of the options we have> to build a really large, completely databasedriven "enterprise scale"> web-platform. I am a bit worried about this "maximum of 7 threads per dbThis isn't a maximum. It's just the default. It's easy to increase thenumber of connections.

RE: [Zope] mx ODBC Connection
Hi Phil, I have done what you have suggested and Zope start without errors. I can build a new ZmxODBC connection to a SQL server 7.0, and Zope doesn't return errors. Now I tried to browser the DB (that already exists) and I got this Error: Error Type: InterfaceError Error Value: SQL type (code -9) not implemented I tried to make a simple select in a already existent Table ex: select * from T_TIPO but the same error occurs I created some new table with the test query utils in Zope and no error was presented. I can make select in those new tables. How is the Problem?? With The ZODBCDA I can browse the DB and all works? Any Idea? Any Suggestion?

[Zope] PoPy1.4 Installed:
Hi
Here Is some tips to install PoPy DA on a RH6.2
First: You have to use Postgres7.0 with PoPy1.4
- download the Postgres7.0 with the development libraries (the development
RPM from the Postgres download)
- Download the Popy1.4.1 and the ZPopyDA0.7
- untar Popy1.4.1
- $./configure
- change the Makefile ... the include path isn't /usr/include/postgres but
it's /usr/include/pgsql
- the file /usr/include/pgsql/os.h is a broken link .. we have to solve this
prob
download the source distribution of Posrgress7.0 (not the RPM) and
substitute the broken link os.h with the file linux.h ... rename
linux.h->os.h and put it in the correct path (/usr/include/pgsql)
- make will now finish without errors!! and you get the Popymodule.so
- copy the popymodule.so in the [zopedir]/lib/python
- Untar the ZPopyDA and go to the ZPoPyDa directory in the
lib/python/Products dir of Zope
- modify the PoPy_db.py file changing,
__compatibility__ = ('1.4','1.4.1')
- Launch Zope and All WORKS!!
Hope this Help

[Zope] PopyDA and DBMS Transactions
Hi I heve finally installed the PopyDA0.7 that is a Multithreaded DA (multiple concurrent access on the DBMS) Now I'm doing tests to verify the DBMS transactions (Postgress support DB transations): But something doesn't work as expected: I summarize my tests: I have two DTML Documents: first DTML: now called D1 ...1st sql statement: select * from customers where name='white' ...time.sleep(10) #external function that invokea the sleep function (10 sec) ...2dn sql statement: update customer set descr='Updated 1' where customer='white' Second DTML: now called D2 ...sql statement: update customer set descr='Updated 2' where customer='white' with two browser I called: D1 and then D2 My expected Behaviour was: -With the first statement of D1, Postgres would locks the table The update of D2 has to wait to write because the table is locked only when D1 has finished, D2 commit As result the updated field has to result "Update 2" and not 'Update 1" With the option Auto-commit mode ON the Behaviour was: -D2 autocommit without waiting the end of D1! (as espected with autocomm. off) As result the updated field has to result "Update 1" (because D1 ended after D1) With the option Auto-commit mode OFF the Behaviour was: -D2 autocommit without waiting the end of D1!! Why??!?!??!? -When D1 finished an error occurs: Error Type: ProgrammingError Error Value: ERROR: Can't serialize access due to concurrent update As result the updated field has to result "Update 2" FAULT!! HOW CAN I HAVE TO DO in order to build a concurrent transaction Application with Popy and Postgress??? Thank you Very Much for your Help! Paolo Quaglia Information Technology Coordinator Sitek S.p.A.
