Re: [Zope-dev] ZSQL and Normalized databases (or why ZSQL sucks)
* Adrian Hungate ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) [010420 05:06]: May be I am misunderstanding your problem here, but are you suggesting that SELECT tab1.col1 col1, tab2.col1 col2 FROM ... etc ... Does not expose 'col1' and 'col2' in the namespace for you? This is not my experience. Ok, I only have about 50 ZSQL methods on my intranet but they are all complex queries with column naming clashes. If it failed to work as you are suggesting, I would not have continued using Zope - Database connectivity was one of my criteria. I mean that: SELECT tab1.col1, tab2.col1 FROM ... etc ... Does not expose 'tab1.col1' and 'tab2.col1'. In otherwords, it doesn't gracefully handle name clashes. I realize that calling out the variable 'tab1.col1' out of the namespace is a pain, but (hopefully) in the future it would be made easier. Perhaps like so: dtml-var name='tab1.col1' (note single quotes) The normality (or abnormality) of your databases should make no difference, (Except to how complex your individual SQL statements become). What database are you running against? Maybe you have hit a database connector bug? Postgresql. I've tried all three of the DAs: Psyco, Popy and PostresDA [Nice Example Snipped] What DB was that? The syntax isn't what I expect from Postgres, Tandem and MySQL. As far as the 'foo=0' example, if you set foo to 0, and do nothing in between to change it, of course a test for not equal to 0 will fail, what would you expect? Here is the example again, but better: paramfoo:int=0/param dtml-if expr="foo 0"Not Zerodtml-elseZero/dtml-if If called like so: dtml-var expr="zsql_example(foo=200)" It will ALWAYS print 'Zero'. This makes it hard to do something with a param that defaults to nothing like: paramcategory_id=""/param SELECT url.id, url.name dtml-if category_id, xref_url_category.categoryid as category_id, /dtml-if FROM url dtml-if category_id, xref_url_category /dtml-if dtml-sqlgroup where dtml-if category_id dtml-sqltest category_id column="xref_url_category.categoryid" type="int" dtml-and xref_url_category.urlid = url.id /dtml-if /dtml-sqlgroup You can't even replace the param with "category_id:int=0" and then check for category_id = 0 in the dtml-ifs. I finished my project, so I'm happy for the moment. I have another ZSQL project (a DVD, Comic Book and Video tracker for my Manga and Anime), so I'll be back.

[Zope-dev] ZSQL and Normalized databases (or why ZSQL sucks)
Does any one have an example of ZSQL being used witha normalized database? Or is ZSQL just useless? Near as I can tell, between: * Broken type marshalling * Loosing the variable between the form and dtml-if * Inability to handle table.field names for variables * And enough flexibility to work around the above problems This makes ZSQL extreamely nasty, and impossible to use with a normalized database. What's the point? ZSQL sucks, how do I talk to the DB directly? Yeah, I keep almost getting this to be useful. But damn it if I don't keep hitting a brick wall.

I would like to apologize for being particularly pissy. Things are
quite as bad as I say up there...
My third point is only half true. I can have SQLTEST specify a
column name (aka a field):
dtml-sqltest somevarname column="SQLTABLE.sqlfield" type...
This makes things work MUCH better. So there are work arounds. But
this doesn't excuse this not working:
SELECT table.field1, table.field2 FROM
and then:
dtml-var name="table.field1" --doesn't work
dtml-var name="field1" -- does work
I know that the '.' has a special meaning, but there should be ways
around this if the use wants.
I still would love some examples. Do people end up with 4 ZSQL
objects per thing they manipulate in their database?:
UPDATE, SELECT, INSERT and DELETE? Or do they mix them somehow?

I'm assuming that you are losing values that are not in your argument list. All you have to do is add the arguments. That isn't what I mean. Try this (typed in, so it may need to be adjusted): paramfoo=0/param dtml-if expr="foo != 0"Life is good/dtml-if You'll NEVER get Life is good to print out. EVER. This is because ZSQL is setting foo to 0. But dtml-var and dtml-sqlvar both work. * Inability to handle table.field names for variables * And enough flexibility to work around the above problems This makes ZSQL extreamely nasty, and impossible to use with a normalized database. Database normalization isn't really an issue. It sounds like you're really just having problems with the syntax of joins. Nope, can do joins. Been doing joins (mainly inner). Not the problem. The problem is that if I have tables like: Table1 -- id name desc Table2 -- id Table1ID -- Foreign Key thrown in for fun. name desc And I join them, then I MUST rename all the selects using AS: select Table1.id as id1 Table1.name as name1 ...etc Because I can't have zsql put the variables in the caller's namespace as "Table1.id". It puts them in as "id" (without the AS). Fortunately, I found the column for sqltest (which is the other end of ZSQL): dtml-sqltest id1 column="Table1.id" What's the point? ZSQL sucks, how do I talk to the DB directly? Grab the Python database adapter and write some python classes or external methods to do what you need. Can I use them from a python script? If not, what's the point? I mean: External methods are nice to have when you have *no other choice*, but they aren't something I'd want to debug and deal with for object. This makes things work MUCH better. So there are work arounds. This isn't a work-around, it is the way that it is intended to be used. I didn't see a single example of it. The Zope Book didn't mention this at all (except as a single line reference). I would *never* have gone looking for the word column. Why? It's a field! Again, I think that it's a matter of understanding how ZSQL works, rather than a limitation of ZSQL. If you have column name conflicts, you can always use something like: SELECT a.field as a_field, b.field as b_field FROM ... Then refer to them in dtml like dtml-a_field; or dtml-var name="a_field" Right, but you still have to do extra work to get them back into a ZSQL object. column lets you do that. It's got no examples to help out with. It's documented once. I didn't see it. Life is better now. I still would love some examples. Do people end up with 4 ZSQL objects per thing they manipulate in their database?: UPDATE, SELECT, INSERT and DELETE? Or do they mix them somehow? I typically wind up with a ZSQL method for each of the CRUD operations. Sometimes I have separate selects methods for more complex joins, if the DTML code gets too ugly when I try to combine them into a single method. Example of a fairly typical join statement (for MySQL database): Arguments- begin_date:date end_date:date="2037-01-01" SELECT search_string, search_result, search_date, result_category, legal_category.name FROM search_log LEFT JOIN legal_category ON search_log.result_category=legal_category.code dtml-sqlgroup required where dtml-sqltest name="begin_date" op="gt" type="nb" column="search_date" dtml-and dtml-sqltest name="end_date" type="nb" op="lt" column="search_date" optional /dtml-sqlgroup Hey!

Re: [Zope-dev] ZSQL and Normalized databases (or why ZSQL sucks)
* Casey Duncan ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) [010419 17:45]: Reason: foo=0 is actually foo='0'. foo:int=0 should work like you want. Same behaviour. I opened a bug in the collector a while ago about this: http://classic.zope.org:8080/Collector/2053/view A related bug: http://classic.zope.org:8080/Collector/2045/view This is a function of your field naming convention more than anything. Granted you don't always have control over that. I am surprised that name="spam.eggs" doesn't work on sqltests (it works everywhere else). Are you explicitly saying name="..."? that could be the problem, bare quoting assumes expr="..." where periods are significant. It works with sqltest, actually. But since a lot of people have examples of chaining the namespaces, this breaks that and adds more work since you can't alias (via AS) to dotted names. Can I use them from a python script? If not, what's the point? I mean: External methods are nice to have when you have *no other choice*, but they aren't something I'd want to debug and deal with for object. Python scripts are quite helpful for calling ZSQL methods. Just remember to pass REQUEST or the arguments explicitly.

Re: [Zope-dev] FTP interface being worked on?
* Fred Wilson Horch ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) [010312 10:27]: Another serialized format that all Zope objects support is the XML interface, which exposes all the objects' guts. With XML-RPC I envisioned being able to improve on the FTP interface by adding things like md5 checksums to determine if the local and remote objects are in synch. I haven't looked too deeply, but presumably via XML you could support all of the management functionality that is currently provided by the HTML management interface. So you could build a client with a rich feature set for managing Zope objects. An idea might be to just impliment the rsync protocol, which does a lot of this already.

Hello,
I'm trying to use the SiteAccess Product as discribed in the HowTo: Using
Apache with ZServer (NOT Zope.cgi). Unforunately things don't work as
described.
My ZServer is listening on www.myserver.com:9080/somesite. I would like to
be able to access the ZServer through apache via the URL www.somesite.com
(to do virtual hosting).
The ProxyPass directives work well (the pages get served properly), but the
URL's in my pages still contain the complete URL's of the ZServer, like
img src="http://www.myserver.com:9080/somesite/images/some.gif" instead
of img src="http://www.somesite.com/images/some.gif". The same is true
for normal links. Ok, it's not so bad, things work (no broken links), but
it is a little bit ugly. I thought the SiteAccess Product should handle
these problems, by putting a SiteRoot object in the somesite folder.
Or do I have to write an AccessRule ? And how would that look like ?
Thanks a lot, regards, Leonardo Graf
It sounds like your SiteRoot object doesn't have "Base" (aka the
Base URL) set correctly.
It should be set to:
http://www.somesite.com
The SiteAccess Rule is only needed if you have *multiple* hosts
served out from one host. You sound like you only have one.
Ciao!

Re: [Zope] ZCatalog: setting default to AND (not OR).
I'm sorry. I seem to have not explained myself very well. I want ZCatalog to use AND by default. I think the extended behaviour, being able to AND and OR keywords together is fine. I'm only concerned with the default behaviour (with *no* OR or AND keywords). When I first used zope.org's search engine, I couldn't figure out why if searched for "zcatalog siteaccess" it gave me (seemingly) every article on the site except the one(s) I wanted. It's because I expected AND to be the default (the union) of the two terms, not an OR list. Frankly, I don't think OR is useful at all by it self. It's usually with an AND that it's most useful. But that's just my humble opinion. Oh wait, I don't do humbleso that's just my opinion. ;-) I wish everyone a happy holiday, whether it's Thanksgiving or "Laborday/Thanksgiving" (as NPR said Japan was having). Ciao!

Re: [Zope] SiteAcess (Debian Fix)
The bug (number 76658) is listed on Debian's site:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=76658repeatmerged=yes
The fix (I had forgotten what it was) is stupidly simple:
mkdir /usr/lib/zope/lib/python/Products/SiteAccess/help
A better fix is to fix ProductContext.py is lib/Python/App. I have
an attached patch, but it doesn't seem like it's the right way to
fix it.
BTW: While you're making empty directories, you should probably
make:
/usr/lib/zope/lib/python/Products/PlugIns/help
Because in the Debian package, it has the same problem.
Ciao!

I was looking at the cacheability of my website in zope, and saw
that the misc_/OFSP/*.gif images (as in the icon objects) are
NOT cacheable because they don't return *any* date info. If they
*at least* returned a Last Modified, they'd be cacheable.
My browser (Netscape 4.74) happily cashes these images.
It is not clear, why a "Last Modified" header should be a precondition
for caching.
I would expect it is only necessary, if you told your browser
(or other cache) to verify freshness for each request.
If the browser has a "Last Modified", it sends an
"If-Modified-Since" header and get a 304 response,
if not.
Ah, but you see, I have a caching proxy! Squid. My netscape cache's
the images (ie, writes them to disk) but they are overwritten
everytime. Since I connect via modem, I can watch them repopulate
slowly.
Even if Netscape does hold on to them without a caching proxy, we
couldn't rely on that behavior.
This problem makes 'icon' an undesireable object to use.

[Zope-dev] ZopeBug: No Last-Modified for misc_/.../*.gif objects!!!!
I was looking at the cacheability of my website in zope, and saw
that the misc_/OFSP/*.gif images (as in the icon objects) are
NOT cacheable because they don't return *any* date info. If they
*at least* returned a Last Modified, they'd be cacheable.
I looked at the Zope Source and it looks like misc_.py just calls
ImageFile objects. Why aren't the ImageFile objects setting these
header info bits correctly? I'm not very knowledgable about Zope
inside, but this seems like it should be happening.
A side effect of fixing this problem would be that the manage
screens would suddenly work much faster since the icons would not
need to be reloaded EVERY time!!
Here is the HEAD info from two ImageFile objects. The first is in
the folder images which has a SiteAccess object that forces the
Cache-Control object, a normal Image would not have the
Cache-Control line. The second is a misc_.py object:

* peter bengtson ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) [001110 10:40]: It's a give-and-take I think. I had the same confusion as you have right now, but after a while you learn this syntax pretty well. This is the same as with all syntax, and as soon as you have learned the basics the rest is easy and from then on a matter of learning how to use extensive functions and methods. Considering that DTML is supossed to be for web/html writers, *not* for programmers, I think that's not a good attitude to take. I don't want web-writers having to figure out that to access a variable, *that was being use a second ago with no extra syntax* suddenly needs _[''] wrapped around it. It doesn't make any sense UNLESS you know what's going on underneith. And since the whole attitude for Zope is, "do it right". I'd say this needs to be addressed at some point.

[Zope] Zope Book (Error and Suggestion)
At least I think it's an error (either in my understanding or in the book). First off, I think the books great. Finally something that's trying to explain what's going on. Zope looks so cool, but it's been hard for a hardcode PHP and Perl programmer like me to get my brain around it. Anyway, my suggestion is that all the image URLs be fixed so that your book can be easily mirrored with normal web-tools. Perhaps even offer a version that's downloadable. When I went to mirror it, my mirror software choked on image urls like: http://www.zope.org/Members/michel/ZB/SimpleExamples.html/Figures/5-7.png The mirror was so I can use it at home where I don't have a reasonable net access (very flaky 56k, it hoses up frequently as it's through work). The error or problem that I have run into is that I can't get the Guest Book in chapter 5 to work. They python method listed there does not work for me. I'm using Debian Unstable (Woody) with these versions of packages: ii zope 2.2.2-3The Z Object Publishing Environment ii zope-bytecodeh 0.1.7-2Rewrite bytecode of functions to do unlikely ii zope-pythonmet 0.1.7-2Allows ZopeMethods to be written in plain Py That's bytecodehacks and pythonmethods on the bottom there. The error message is: Error Type: NameError Error Value: context I have no idea how to fix this, so I'm asking here.
