 I did that. I feel I am missing something obvious.
 
 What I do is:
 
   * create a folder named "/test"
   * inside /test I choose login manager from the "avaliable objects" drop down.
   * select "solid user source" from the menu.
   * press "add"
   * create an index_html which Anonymous is not allowed to see.
 
 When I access /test from an unauthenticated webbrowser it finds that
 it can't view it and pops up the username/password window, but neither
 retreiveItem nor anything else gets called.

Is your login form even calling the authenticate method? check your login method.

RE: [Zope-dev] Logs stamped with wrong time

 I just checked, and my copy of Apache logs in local time (my last
 example). So I agree that following the convention and logging in
 localtime is best.

FYI - I've checked in the fix for this for 2.2.1 (we've been 
offline for a few days though, and I have to catch up on 
reply notifications to bug submitters...)

Ability for such simple and trivial things as my patches ? Experience ?
Eh... Sorry but this eventually would was true 20 years ago

How you think ? What is my motivation to produce patches etc ?.
Answer is very simple...

Maybe this would help filter down the

What way ?. It was a little bug and inconsistence it tree tag and

[Zope-dev] ZPatterns.. Property sheets... once and for all. ;-)

2000-08-24 Thread Steve Spicklemire



Hi Folks,

   OK.. I didn't hear much from my last plea for advice... I 
thought perhaps such a concrete problem would product lots
of sage advice... but there's good news: here's another chance!

Really Really Basic:

If I have a class like so:

class Shopper(
OFS.SimpleItem.Item,
ZPatterns.DataSkins.DataSkin,
Acquisition.Implicit,
AccessControl.Role.RoleManager,
):

""" A Shopper """

# Specify a name for the item type:
meta_type='Shopper'

and let's say I define some attributes in the class 

id = 'default'
email = ''
_passwd = ''

Now... let's further say that I want a developer using this class to
be able to add propertysheets to instances of this class after I'm
finished... to make customized versions of these
objects. Also.. perhaps I want to take advantage of the 'automatic'
nature of property sheets to provide a usable interface so that users
can edit various properties. I was successful in adding a propertysheet
using the 

/specialist/anobject/propertysheets/manage_addPropertySheet?id=foons=

technique.. which I'm pretty sure I could also implement 
programattically. ;-). But when I try:


/specialist/anobject/propertysheets/foo/manage

I get an attribute error looking for 'a_'. 

I get the same error when I try:

/specialist/anobject/propertysheets/foo/manage_addProperty?id=blahvalue=hhtype=string

Any idea what's up with that?

But no matter... I can't add 'email' to *any* propertysheet, even those
in the ZClass, since it's already used in the class. So do I leave it out
of the class and "hope" that someone defines it in some propertysheet
somewhere? Do I do lots of:

if hassattr(self, 'email') and so on.. in case somehow it didn't get taken
care of? I *know* I missing something deep. I'm sure I'll say something
dumb enough here soon.. and someone will point out my basic misunderstanding. ;-)

thanks!
-steve

2000-08-24 Thread Steve Alexander

Steve, 

Ok, it is a bug in manage_tabs.

Here's a proper fix:

  dtml-if manage_options
  dtml-with "_(option=manage_options[a_])"
  dtml-if "option.has_key('help')"
  td align="right" valign="top"
  dtml-var "HelpSys.button(HelpSys, REQUEST, 
  product=option['help'][0],
  topic=option['help'][1])"
  /td
  /dtml-if/dtml-with/dtml-if

Replace the dtml-comment with dtml-if manage_options and
/dtml-comment with /dtml-if.

I'm putting this in the Collector.

Re: [Zope-dev] Zope as CGI with IIS Windows 2000 Server

2000-08-24 Thread Rik Hoekstra



URGENT!  Need assistance with Zope as a PCGI with IIS 5 on Windows 2000
server.


After configuring Zope for use as a PCGI, and configuring IIS to use the
pcgi-wrapper.exe, etc...

The test link:http://localhost/Scripts/Zope.pcgi

...is returning the following message within the "Temporarily
Unavailable" error response page:

!--
Error parsing pcgi info file
pcgi-wrapper-version 2.0a4
--

I have tested the file using parseinfo and get no response.


what do you mean by no response? Is it not returning anything or just no
errors?


A theory, at this point has been that there is a
conflict/incompatibility with Zope as a PCGI with IIS 5.0 on Windows
2000.


This seems to be a pcgi (Zope) error though. Only used it on NT4 and IIS4
but from the above a basic incompatibility seems unlikely (to me).

Cool! Thanks Steve.. I'll give that a try.

I guess the question behind the question though is  is this a
reasonable way to handle property sheets?  Is this how the designers
of ZPatterns envision property sheets will be used? I keep getting
the feeling that I'm missing a basic 'grokism' of the technology and
I keep expecting to get hit over the head with it but I don't.

Anyway.. thanks for tracking down the traceback...

Re: [Zope-dev] Zope Content Management System

2000-08-24 Thread Rik Hoekstra



Hi there, I am working on a project and have been looking at the Zope
Content Management System as part of the solution. However, I have a couple
of questions. From what I have seen so far, the page generation is all done
through the Zope Management Interface, and the content of the page is done
through a textarea requiring the user to have knowledge of the zope
system(DTML) and HTML. With type type of solution I am looking for however,
I need page content to be generated be users that have little or no
knowledge of HTML. What I am wondering is if it is possible to integrate
the
Zope content management system with Cold Fusion as I can allow users with
no
knowledge of HTML to use an interface designed with Cold Fusion to create
page content. I do not wish to build a content management system from
scratch with Cold Fusion. Any suggestions and/or comments would be very
helpful.

Um, intergration with Cold Fusion would be strange I think. WHat your
question is, probably, is whether you can you wysiwyg HTML editors with
Zope. Some minor inconveniences aside that mostly have to do with file
extensions, the answer is yes. As Zope speaks ftp and WebDAV and a host of
other protocols, you can easily prepare Zope content with tools like
HomeSite and Dreamweaver (and many other tools). Just try it out on a Zope
installation

[Zope-dev] ZPatterns bug: Specialist does not implement _PropertySheetsFor(client)

2000-08-24 Thread Steve Alexander

I'm using ZPatterns 0.4.1snap1.

The LinkToParentProviders datamanager doesn't work properly because it
assumes that the Specialist it lives in has a _PropertySheetsFor(client)
method.

However, Specialists (and DataManagers) don't provide this method.

This stops /specialist/object/propertysheets/manage from working. It
also stops _v_currentSheets from returning all the sheets a Dataskin
might have.

Phillip, is this fixed in your internal version?

If not, I'll add the method over the weekend.

I think so.

You add PropertySheets to a DataSkin, and the sheets' data get handled
by SheetProviders.

You can use triggers or custom sheet providers to add sheets to an
object if that object meets certain criteria. The object need not know
it has had those sheets added. The object plays different roles with
different specialists.

Ouch.  That's not the problem.  This is fallout from making DataSkins more
"personally responsible"; the bug is in the propertysheet providers that
expect to acquire from a parent.  They need to be rewritten to work the way
dataskins do now, or else configured to find the parent providers, and
provide those instead.  :(  I'll have to take a closer look at this later.

By the way, I've been away from the list a while due to day-to-day business
concerns and travel.  I'm hoping to start the process of catching up soon,
but I saw this and since it's a bug I'm going to tackle it first before
trying to answer any other unanswered questions that might be floating
around out there.  Sorry.

[Zope-dev] Product release: ExtFile/ExtImage 0.91

2000-08-24 Thread Heine, Gregor

Version 0.91 of the ExtFile/ExtImage Software Product has just been
released.

The ExtFile and  ExtImage Products store large files in an external
file-repository and are able to display icons for different MIME-Types. The
ExtImage Product additionally creates preview-thumbnails from images and
displays them.
ExtFile and ExtImage basically work like the Zope File and Image products
but the (binary) file is not stored inside the ZODB, but in an external
file-repository. Only meta data (like title and description) are stored in
the ZODB. This prevents the Database swelling up quickly, when many large
files are uploaded and thus increasing database performance. 
Version 0.91 fixes an important security issue, that allowed read access to
any file in the local filesystem (readeable for the UID of the zope
process).

The Product is avaliable at http://www.zope.org/Members/MacGregor/ExtFile/

MacGregor!
