[Zope] Lost External Methods
I am running Zope 2.1.4 (binary release, python 1.5.2, win32-x86) Python version: 1.5.2 (#0, Jul 30 1999, 09:52:18) [MSC 32 bit (Intel)] System Platform: win32 I have several external methods. Just recently, they started to be good for one run only. The external methods run fine once. The next run, they error out with: "Could not execute external method: ExtMthdName" If I reload that method [Edit button it] it runs fine again for one run. Any suggestions? And... while I'm at it, is there a way in Zope to programmatically reload [Edit button] an external method (in case I can't get the problem to go away and just out of general curiosity)? Robert J.

RE: [Zope] Help Debugging External Methods
I do pretty much the same things myself. I assign sys.stderr = sys.stdout, then I create my own log file object from a module I wrote a few years ago, and then assign something like sys.stderr = self.logObj. That works well for any errors that occur after those assignments have occurred but doesn't do much for anything that happens earlier. I also run the python code outside of Zope to get it all working. It's just a pain when I have to make some minor change in the Zope to External Method logic and it breaks. That's where I start to lose it some in the debugging. Using something like: import sys, traceback, string try: trysomething() except: type, val, tb = sys.exc_info() sys.stderr.write(string.join(traceback.format_exception(type, val, tb), '')) del type, val, tb ...helps, but even with that I seem to get errors that I just can't seem to catch and report properly. I'm not sure what you are referring to with "...the Python debugger "pdb"...". I've never used it. Thanks for your help, Robert J.

I work under Unix. Maybe my technics are not applicable for NT. Usually, I use "print" statements for debugging purposes. Under Unix, I can redirect "stdout" to a file and view the output (be sure to flush stdout after "print"). You can also use "zLog" (may be spelled differently!). This writes log entries into the log file. The advantages: will work under Windows, contains a timestamp. If the external method does not need too many Zope infrastructure, I test it outside of Zope and integrate only, when it works properly. When everything else does not work, I use "Test.py" and the Python debugger "pdb".

[Zope] Help Debugging External Methods
What are my options for debugging External Methods in Zope running on Windows NT? Is there ANY way to get the external method to run in a DOS window that I can watch? What little tricks/techniques have others use to make debugging external methods easier/possible? Thanks, Robert J.

[Zope] Importing multiple files into Zope
I would like to be able to import multiple existing HTML files into Zope and make them searchable. For example: I would like to be able to point a Zope Method at my c:\python\doc subdirectory and import not only the index.html file, but also import the subdirectories under ...\doc\ and all of their files/directories. I would need to end up with the same folder/directory structure within Zope to retain the relative addressing. I would like to be able to then build a search screen that allowed me to do full text search on those files/objects. Is there something in existence in the Zope community? And, can it be used by a Zope 'wannabe' but a 'long way from getting there'. I do believe I could write such a thing myself, but I'm not sure I'll live long enough to figure out how!

[Zope] Setting Default Properties in a Product
I have a product I have created.
When creating an instance of the product, there are several property field
which I pre-populate with default values. Those default values are
currently set in my __init__() function.
I would like to allow the users to redefine the defaults at the product
level.
How do I add a default properties page to my product so the user can set
them in /root/Control_Panel/Products/{MyProduct} so that each new instance
of that products uses their defaults and not my hard-coded defaults?
