Re: [Zope-dev] Zope & Cygwin
Hope it's OK to continue crossposting this thread. > also of note > http://apache.dev.wapme.net Grabbed the bindist earlier today. ;-) I wanted to torture test the Zope session manager under the cygwin-built Zope using ab, which is good real-world threading test. It appears that neither ab nor wget much like something about their communication with the cygwin-built Zope.

I don't think it's a pressing need for us, although I'll need to defer to Brian Lloyd, who is still the Zope release-master despite years of desperate kicking and screaming. The only thing in Zope for Windows that uses the registry is the installer and the service manager and we don't use the winreg module in the current install or service process, AFAIK. It is handy, however, to know it can be used under Cygwin with your patches.

Re: [Zope-dev] Zope & Cygwin
Note that I was able to get Zope up and running using Cywin after: - upgrading to the most recent snapshot Cywgin dll (cygwin1-20011016.dll), which was as easy as copying the file over the existing 1.3.3 version of cywin1.dll. I didn't futz with building anything Cygwin-related out of CVS. - recompiling Cygwin python with thread support (which was a matter of "./configure; make; make install" with the Cygwin Python sources, as Norman said). - rerunning $PY_SRC/Tools/scripts/h2py.py against the fcntl.h file that lives in Cygwin's /usr/include/sys and saving the resulting FCNTL.py file in /usr/local/lib/python2.1/plat-cygwin/FCNTL.py I then compiled the Zope trunk using Cygwin Python and GCC via a simple "python wo_pcgi.py" and ran it via "./start", and voila! It at least appears to work! Very nice... thanks very much for the heads-up, Norman.

[Zope-dev] How to report stuff with the collector down?
Sorry if this is OT. I was looking at the issue schema of the new collector, and I'm wondering how a person would tie in a testcase id to a issue id.

Hi Lennart, I suggest sending your plea for bug reporting as well as the bugfixes themselves to Ken Manheimer ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). He is the person responsible for creating the replacement for the collector.

[Zope-dev] How to report stuff with the collector down?
Hi all! I tried to figure out how to report bugs and stuff without the collector, but couldn't find anything. Any official way? Anyway, I found this minor bug in FileStorage.py. If you try to pack a db with a packdate that is earlier than the date of the first object in the database, you get a "Errno 22, Invalid argument" error. This is because read_index bails out already at the first object and returns position 4L. Whe _reduntant_pack then tries to seek(-8) it of course fails. Now, I haven't tried tha absolute latest versions of Zope, but a check in the CVS indicated that the problem is still there. I chenged this part of FileStorage.py (row 1275 in v1.71.2.3): packpos, maxoid, ltid = read_index( file, name, index, vindex, tindex, stop, read_only=1, ) if self._redundant_pack(file, packpos): raise FileStorageError, ( 'The database has already been packed to a later time\n' 'or no changes have been made since the last pack') to this: packpos, maxoid, ltid = read_index( file, name, index, vindex, tindex, stop, read_only=1, ) if packpos == 4L or self._redundant_pack(file, packpos): raise FileStorageError, ( 'The database has already been packed to a later time\n' 'or no changes have been made since the last pack') Note the "if packpos == 4l or" part. This means that you get the message that it's already packed. I have also some other small "improvements" (on MailHost, f ex) that I'd like to submit to the community. Well, *I* think it's an improvement. :-) ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

Sorry for the late replay to the list, I was having some problems with my mail client which led to replies being rejected by various mailing lists.

No heat in this response :-) It's pretty simple: If GPL compatibility in a license is seen as a desirable goal (and it is, even by some who disagree with the GPL itself), and the FSF in the person of RMS is the final arbiter of GPL compatibility, then to get 'official' GPL compatibility declared for your license, you have to deal with RMS. If your question was actually "why does anyone bother with GPL license compatibility" then that is a separate discussion.
