[Zope] errors in sql method
SELECT * FROM WHERE "Play title" like ; Can anybody explain to me what is going on with my zsql method? Zope gives me the following error when I try and change my method to what is above. Invalid attribute name, "which_table", for tag , on line 16 of I've scoured the mailing list, but I'm still mightily confused. which_table is one of the arguments for the the sql method and Plays is a string that I want to compare it with. which_table comes from a form elsewhere. I'm sure it's something really simple, and I'm sure it's been discussed here before (at length?), but ATM, I don't even know what I'm looking for!

Thanks for that... I am trying to compare which_table to the exact
string Plays. Plays is not a variable/argument/integer//whatever,
I am just trying to see if the string that is returned from one of the
fields of my form (which_table) is equal to the string Plays.

[Zope] How to get URL of folder (name unknown) with a certain property?
I am trying to figure out how to get hold of the URL (using absolute_url I presume) of a folder with a property called "sehs_root_folder" set to "yes". I do not know what the name of this folder is, so I am finding it difficult to use the hasattr function, and I don't have any way of knowing where abouts in the document tree the folder is (except that it must be a 'parent' folder of the one that contains the dtml-method that I am running the code from). Does that make any sense? I'm finding it difficult to even express my question, so searching the mailing list archives is proving fruitless. I'd appreciate any pointers tim ps. The reason I'm trying to do this is to make my site more portable. I would like to be able to change servers and/or folder names on my server without damaging all the links and addresses to images/files on the site. As such, everywhere that I have any sort of link/address on the site, I currently use the following: /address/to/whatever/ is a method that resides in the 'root' folder of the site, and in it, I put the current appropriate path for the site. However, I would like to make this method automatically figure out the appropriate path. Therefore, I gave the 'root folder' a property called "sehs_root_folder" that I hope to search for. If you have a more efficient way of solving my problem, please let me know.

Excellent. Here is what I have managed to make work.
I really appreciate it. And thanks for the reply on my other
(related) post. Don't think I'll mess with ZopeFind for now; I don't
always have access to Zope 2.2.x, but more usually 2.1.6.
Thanks again.

Therefore, in every link/URL within the site, I do something like the following, href="/link/to/whatever.html" The path method is what contains the code that I have shown above.

[Zope] How to access id and title of document calling standard_html_header
For those of you who saw my posts from a couple of days ago (Dieter Maurer and Geir Bfkholt), this is the question that I think I should have been asking in the first place. I have a standard_html_header that is inserted into Zclasses. These Zclasses have properties including meta_author, meta_description etc (I don't think it is important what they are, just that they are properties that standard_html_header does not have). In the standard_html_header, I use code such as and . This works fine and the properties of the *zclass* are inserted. However, if I put into the standard_html_header, I get the id of standard_html_header, *not* of the zclass. How do I tell zope to which item I am refering (bearing in mind, I don't know the name of the zclass ie it is variable)? Cheers tim ps. As a workaround, I have simply given my zclasses an alternative property (counter_id) that I make the same as the real id, but this seems to be a clumsy way of doing it. ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Here is what I have. I have a Folder that was created by using the 'Add new item' menu within Zope. This folder is called 'Site'. I have a Zclass called 'theatre_class' that has "Base classes ZObject, _ZClass_for_CatalogAware, _ZClass_for_DTMLDocument". I have set the zclass to have the following properties by creating a 'theatre_class_property' property sheet for it: head_title meta_author meta_description ... amongst others. Within the Folder 'Site', I have standard_html_header dtml-method that is an edited version of the default one that is found in the root folder of a Zope instance (if that is the right term). This standard_html_header uses things code such as this: When I use the standard_html_header in an instance of a zclass, the appropriate property of the zclass is indeed inserted into it. See below. Zclass instance has code such as: This is an instance of my Theatre Zclass However, if I try to put into the standard_html_header, I get nothing, and if I use , I get 'standard_html_header' inserted into the document. I hope I have made it clear what I am doing. It is certainly becoming clear to me that I have got the wrong end of the stick a little with this.

I presume that this will only work for all *new* instances of this class however! I don't suppose you know of a way of remaking all 44 instances of this Zclass I have using this adjusted constructor? I have tried (see below), but I think I come up against the same '' problem that I'm actually trying to counteract! Anyway, I guess this is a different problem again really isn't it?

[Zope] Zclass not reindexing (it is CatalogAware)
I have created a Zclass, the the _ZClass_for_CatalogAware base class as the first added base class (second in the list of base classes). My zcatalog (named Catalog) is set to 'Find objects of type: "myClass_metatype"' and therefore, when I add a new instance of my class, it is automatically added to the catalog. By that, I mean that once I have added the instance, I can go the the 'Cataloged Objects' view and see it listed there. However, if I try a search using the raw (TextIndex) search outlined in one of the tutorials, the search fails to find words that I *know* are in the zclass that I just added, and that I thought had been cataloged. Clicking on 'Update Catalog' in the 'Cataloged Objects' view and then researching means that the search succeeds in finding the word in the new instance. The question is, do I need to add the equivalent of what is written in 'How-To: Creating a CatalogAware ZClass' for reindexing zclass properties, but for reindexing the actual text? How could I do this?

If I'm honest, while I have become somewhat familiar with what Albert describes as zope's 'multiple personality disorder', I can't say I truly understand it. I still don't think I've got my head around the _['whatever'] syntax. From what Oleg says, if there is a method there, it will be called, otherwise it reverts to a string!

[Zope] dtml-in over the output from my method
I am trying to create a zope product in python but
have got stuck with using the dtml-in tag to iterate over a method (or is it a
function? I get a little mixed up) of my class. Here is the method,
def
list_messages(self):
lr = open(self.user_dir+'/msg_list',
'r')
spl =
re.compile('\s\|\s')
for msg_line in
lr.readline():
num_from_sub =
[]
num_from_sub = spl.split(msg_line,
2)
print
num_from_sub
self.msgnum =
num_from_sub[0]
self.msgfrom = 'This is from
UNKNOWN'
self.msgsub = 'My special subject'
return self.msgnum, self.msgfrom, self.msgsub
And here is an extract from the dtml file that
is supposed to display the output,
&dtml-msgfrom;
&dtml-msgsub;
However, this does not produce the desired effect.
I don't know if it is obvious from what I've written, but basically, the three
variables (self.msgnum, self.msgfrom and self.msgsub) are supposed to be
inserted into the appropriate place in the table, and then the 'for' statement
re-executed (producing different values for the variables) with the subsequent
values being inserted into the next line of the table etc... until there are no
more lines to be read from lr. I'm not sure if that is clear or not, sorry.
Obviously, this does not work as the dtml-in simply iterates over each of the
returned variables (instead of over the for statement). I can't seem to make it
do what I want. Does anyone have any ideas? Much obliged if you do.
Cheers

[Zope] testing a product, then it disappears after restart
I am trying to create a zope product and it
basically works in python, so I thought I would start trying to 'zopify' it. I
created a directory in the zope Products directory called zIMAP and placed my
code in there, along with a __init__.py file to initialise the product. Here is
what it looks like,
import zIMAP
def
initialize(context): """Initialize
the zIMAP
product."""
context.registerClass(
zMAP.zimap,constructors
= (zIMAP.manage_addzIMAPForm, zIMAP.manage_addzIMAP), icon =
'')
The main bit of my product code is in a file called
zIMAP.py. When I restarted zope, my zIMAP product appeared in the product
management list (broken, as I'd expected). I looked at the debug info that zope
provides for broken products and made some changes to the code... followed by
restarting zope. I then got a different error from the broken product info
screen. However, when I made changes to the code and restarted zope this time,
it was as if I had done nothing. The same error was there (despite that
particular line of code being different, and in fact at a different line). I
could not make zope recognise my changes no matter how many times I restarted
zope. So I tried deleting the product from the product management screen. It did
indeed go away, but now it won't come back! When I delete any other working
product, it simply reappears next time I restart zope. What has gone wrong with
my product? How can I make zope recognise it again?
I have included the top of my zIMAP.py file as well
in case it is required.
I'd really appreciate any help.

[Zope] inserting half a dtml tag into a zclass
OK, I'm sorry for the wierd title, but I can't really describe what I want to say very easily in one line. Basically, my problem is this; - I have a zclass called DEHS with catalog_aware and dtml_document as base classes. - DEHS instances have a selectable property of public/private. - I want to be able to make it so that if the property is set to 'private', then only people on a particular network may access it. So, here is what I have done (and it works), So, what's the problem I hear you ask. Well, I don't really want all this code to be visible (or breakable) in every DEHS instance. What I would really like to do is have this, where, is just all of the code that I have above s_h_h. However, zope will not let me do this because I end up with a that is missing its closing tag, and one that does not have an opening tag. I realise that I there are products already designed with the sort of functionality I am after built in, but I will not have much influence on the products that will be available on the server that this site will end up on... which is why I'm doing it in this way. Any input is much appreciated. cheers tim

Here is what appears in each zclass instance. And here is the privacy method.

[Zope] reindex when a zclass is edited
I know this has been asked numerous times before (once by me!), and I'm sorry to cover the same ground again, but I've spent all afternoon searching through the list archives to no avail. I have a zclass that is catalogaware (selected first and all that). When I add an instance, it gets cataloged and all is fine. I followed the how to (http://www.zope.org/Members/AlexR/CatalogAware) and successfully made my instance get reindexed when the properties are changed, but I can't for the life of me figure out or find anywhere that can tell me how to make the instance get reindexed when it is edited. I'm assuming that it is similar to the process for reindexing when the properties are changed, but I'm just not sure of the details. If it's not too much trouble, could someone give me detailed instructions (or a link) on how to do this. I'd really appreciate it. cheers tim ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

[Zope] document_src not doing what I thought it did
I have a dtml-documentish zclass and have created a custom edit method for it so that I can do an automatic reindex when each instance is edited. I created this custom form by simply copying the source html that is generated for the standard edit form, and then replacing the static parts of what I copied with various inserts (see below). This seemed to go according to plan until I realised that something strange is happening when I try to view this edit form for an instance of the zclass. In most cases, everything seems normal, but when I try to edit an instance that has a property set to 'private', my 'privacy' method kicks in and redirects me away from the edit form to my standard 'Restricted Page'. The redirection is written into the text of the instance I am trying to edit, so I expected that by using , the actual source would get placed in the text area without being processed. This is what appears to happen when the instance does not have the 'private' property. I guess therefore, my question is, am I using document_src correctly? thanks very much tim ps Sorry to be such a regular poster of problems Id Title Size bytes Last modified ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

[Zope] Script to do various 'manage_' operations
I have been trying to get hold of a script that can automatically convert
various dtml methods to custom zclass instances. I found a script on the
zope mailing list (see bottom)
I put my file (see below) in the Extensions directory and added an external
method from within zope. This all appeared to go fine. To execute the
script, I made a method that simply had and then
standard_h_h etc. The problem is, nothing seems to happen. I can view the
method that was supposed to run the script, but the call doesn't seem to
work. Within the filesystem, there is no file called tempo (as a kind of
log of what's been done), and the methods with extension .shtml certainly do
not get changed to dtml documents.
Has anyone done this before? Can you shed any light on what I'm doing
wrong?
Much obliged.

get_shtml.match(self.id):
convert(self)
# should this be "isPrincipiaFolderish"?
if hasattr(self, 'isAnObjectManager') and self.isAnObjectManager:
for v in self.objectValues():
v.convert_dtml()
def convert(dtml_item):
id = dtml_item.id+'2'
title = dtml_item.title
# like document_src, but doesn't require RESPONSE
f.write(id /n)
data = dtml_item.PrincipiaSearchSource()

[Zope] Security on email.Message.Message
Hi,
I'm trying to import and use the email.Message.Message class in a zope
'Script (Python)'.
I have the following security assertions in my product code::
from AccessControl import allow_module, allow_class
from AccessControl import ModuleSecurityInfo
ModuleSecurityInfo('email.Message').declarePublic('Message')
from email.Message import Message
allow_class(Message)
As a result, I can successfully import like::
from email.Message import Message
I can even create an instance and call most methods on it::
m = Message()
m.set_payload('read that')
However, when I try to use the mapping interface, I get an error. For
example, the following::
m['from'] = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
produces a traceback like::
Traceback (innermost last):
Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 101, in publish
Module ZPublisher.mapply, line 88, in mapply
Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 39, in call_object
Module Shared.DC.Scripts.Bindings, line 306, in __call__
Module Shared.DC.Scripts.Bindings, line 343, in _bindAndExec
Module Products.PythonScripts.PythonScript, line 323, in _exec
Module None, line 6, in AAA
-
- Line 6
Module RestrictedPython.Guards, line 96, in handler
TypeError: object does not support item or slice assignment
Does anyone have any idea what the problem is?

As an alternative: look at > TrustedExecutables. Thanks Andreas. I suppose I could move the code to a product (which I would prefer over an external method), but it seems a little heavy-weight for my requirements. In fact, generally, I think I would like to be able to use email.Message.Message instances in TTW code, so if anyone does know what's going wrong here, I'd be most pleased to hear. Tim ps Is it me or is the traceback I'm seeing not particularly helpful? I mean, I know that these objects *do* support the dictionary interface! ___ 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 )

Digging further... I made the TypeError a little more revealing on line 96 of RestrictedPython/Guards.py so it now shows the 'secattr' (method) being accessed, and its args:: def handler(self, *args): try: f = getattr(self.ob, secattr) except AttributeError: raise TypeError, '%s | %s | %s' % (error_msg, secattr, str(args)) The value of 'secattr' is apparently '__guarded_setitem__' in my case. So, it seems that the email.Message.Message class does not have a __guarded_setitem__ on it. This is unsurprising. I assume that it is supposed to get added during zope initialisation somewhere, right? Can anybody point out where?

Well, I've fixed this with an awful hack. My security assertions now look
like::
from AccessControl import allow_module, allow_class
from AccessControl import ModuleSecurityInfo
def _secure_mapping(klass):
"""XXX Awful hack!!
"""
klass.__guarded_getitem__ = klass.__getitem__
klass.__guarded_setitem__ = klass.__setitem__
klass.__guarded_delitem__ = klass.__delitem__
ModuleSecurityInfo('email.Message').declarePublic('Message')
from email.Message import Message
_secure_mapping(Message)
allow_class(Message)
That gets me to where I want (for now). I'd still love the 'correct'
answer though.

[Zope] blacklisting referers and/or specific hosts
Hi, I have a zope site up and running which has recently had a *lots* of hits from a client (or clients) that show referers pointing at various gambling, meds, and loan sites. Requests only come in for the main page, not for the associated images, css, etc that should go with it. The consequence is that my server is working harder to service a client that isn't interested in what it has to say, and my Z2.log is now far less useful to me as all these bogus requests drown out most of the useful information. So, I'm wondering if there's a way to blacklist those clients that I don't like based on host/ip and/or on referer. If I hook into the traversal process in the same way as the virtual host monster objects do, could I check the request against my blacklist and then do a REQUEST.close()? Would that still appear in my logs? Does that even make sense? Is there a HTTP response code that I could return to these clients that would stop them being interested in my server? Any ideas much appreciated.

Yes, this is the problem I have. I'm hosted on zettai, so am a little limited in the options available to me (I believe). Zettai have said they will have a solution in place within 2-3 months, but I'd really like to sort something out in the meantime. > I worked out a simple ip and country-ip solution.

As far as I can tell, there are two or three IP addresses producing all of these pesky requests. Do you have code that you can share?
