[Zope-dev] Debugging spinning Zope?

2006-04-18 Thread Morten W. Petersen
Hi,

I have a problem with a Zope that hangs eating up 99.9% of the CPU.
I've tried to debug the problem by using DeadlockDebugger but that
doesn't even return when accessing it.

I guess the next step is to use pdb og gdb - are there perhaps any
documents out there describing the process?

TIA,

Morten

[Zope-dev] New ways of getting transactions?

2005-12-11 Thread Morten W. Petersen
Hi,

I'm having some code that bombs out trying to commit a transaction;  I
believe it's because of new ways of doing things in Zope 2.9..  how do
you call the equivalents of get_transaction().commit() and abort() in
Zope 2.9?  Will those new ways work with Zope 2.7/2.8?

Thanks.

I think joining Zope 2 and Zope 3 benefits the community as a whole..  I
appreciate that it would be preferable to have Zope 3 on its own, as it
is cleanly designed and well thought out, but Zope 2 has a huge
community of existing users, and Zope 2 code is being improved all the time.

+1 from me.  :)

My experience is that .rpm and .deb packages are poorly maintained, so
if someone is serious about using Zope and related products, downloading
and installing from source is the only way to go.

We also have tools internally that depend on the configure/make dance,
and I'm sure others who put up a lot of Zope instances do as well..  :)

Re: [Zope-dev] Problems adding many objects

Chris,

the implementation looks like this

def manage_add_issue(self, id=None, title='', contents='',
state='', type='', referrer='', format=None,
REQUEST=None):
"""Add an Issue."""
if id is None:
id = self.get_unique_id()
issue_ = issue(id, title, contents, state, type,
   creator=self.get_user().get_id(),
   owner=self.get_user().get_id(),
   format=format or
self.get_user_preferences().issue_format)
self._setObject(id, issue_)
self.order.append(issue_.id)
self.order = self.order
issue_ = self[id]
issue_.version = self.get_issue_dealer().version
try:
self.index_object()
except AttributeError:
pass
if referrer and REQUEST is not None:
REQUEST.RESPONSE.redirect(referrer)
print 'redirect'
else:
if REQUEST is not None:
if self.inCMF():
print 'admin url'
return self.get_admin_url()
else:
print 'manage_main'
return self.manage_main(self, REQUEST)
else:
print 'returning issue', issue_
return issue_

and before returning none, it says 'returning issue' on stdout.

[Zope-dev] Problems adding many objects

2005-09-25 Thread Morten W. Petersen
Hi,

I've created a script that imports XML into the ZODB, using regular TTW
methods - and all is fine, except for when I import large files, with
many objects.

After about 288 objects, the import fails when the method that adds an
object in the ZODB returns None, instead of the object it added.  From
what I can tell, the added object is not None before it is returned, but
the name object, set via the expression

  object = self.manage_add_issue(...)

is None.  So it looks like somewhere between 'return issue_' in
manage_add_issue and the expression above, the object is lost.

Any ideas what could be happening here?  I've managed to work around it
for now, but it is interesting nonetheless.

Regards,

Morten

It's the client that's hanging.  The first time I tested it, it was as a
simple Zope instance.  http://instance/manage worked fine, but accessing
an Issue Dealer instance (http://instance/stuff) didn't work.

Now when I try setting up a ZEO server/client version 2.8 with python
2.3.5 on FreeBSD 5.4, the server hangs even when I try to access
http://instance/manage.  http://instance/manage_copyright works fine
however.

It's not easily doable, no.  I settled on converting each instance

it worked.

[Zope-dev] Updating old catalog indexes (through ZMI)

2001-11-04 Thread Morten W. Petersen

Hi,

I'm wondering if it would be possible to add a method to the ZCatalog so
that upgrading indexes would be as easy as pushing a button.

Some critique: I find it confusing the index listing in the new catalog
only says "pre-2.4 index", when it would be easier to upgrade if something
was known about the index type.

Morten

users modify and view the same object in a short (2-3) minute period.

I've tried recataloging the objects but that doesn't help either;  this
error is seen every time..

 Site Error
An error was encountered while publishing this resource.

Sorry, a site error occurred.

[Zope-dev] monitor_client.py in Zope 2.4.1 not working properly

2001-09-26 Thread Morten W. Petersen

Hi,

I've been playing a bit with the monitor_client (ZServer/medusa), and it
seems all exceptions aren't raised so it's visible in the client, it's
seen in the debug output from Zope itself.

Has anyone experienced this?

If DTML programming / interface design is so simple, and cheap, why not

I've been trying to save some time (and my fingers!) by building a RAD
framework, named the WarpFramework [1], which deals with the low level
complexity of properties and how to display / manipulate them in addition
to other common programming tasks.. this could perhaps blend in easily..

Say for example that we could provide the odd designer with the
possibility of simply pushing widgets and displays (generated
automatically of course) around the page, and changing colors and
backgrounds (CSS); then we have a tool that designers would love as well.

The UML interface may be a bit far fetched, but that's because nobody has

Well, it's quite logical: UML can be used to map out both software and
business development (they are, after all, two sides of the same story),
the designer can twiddle-n-polish the interface and the programmer can
take care of 'exceptional tasks' that can't easily be taken care of via

Another thing is transparency and control.  With source files, it's easier
to 'see'; not to mention that code can be factored out into generic python
modules in a less cumbersome way.

How about meta-programming (designing) via the Zope interface, with UML or
somesuch; automatically generating Python code, then enable designers to
use a ZFormulator-ish product to edit the interface while a programmer can
work on the 'backend' (emacs on a terminal)?

One thing I'd really like to implement is DTMLFile transparency via the
web, so that a designer could enter into Control_Panel/Products/MyProduct
and edit webinterface files there, reflecting it on the filesystem.

ZClasses (as they are today, 'half-baked') should be tossed out, and focus
brought on making one approach easier.

I'm not sure, I've fired off another email to get a clarification.

While we're one the topic, I just read an article [1] over at Kuro5hin
that could enlighten the management over at Digicool and us as well; it
discusses the impacts of Free Software and relates it to Free Trade, talks
about barriers and other interesting things.

>From the practical point of view, being able to use GPL-ed software with
Zope is a Good Thing (TM) for most developers.

Another thing is that some people / companies may be reluctant to add
signifcant modules that could be included in the Zope core, as they will
not get the same level of recognition for their work as Digital Creations
would.

For me personally, a Zope license without the advertising clause would
motivate me, as the 'protection barrier' / 'restriction' / 'attribution
issue' wouldn't be there;  I have a ton of things I'd like to change in
Zope and add to Zope, and as time goes by, the who-gets-credit-issue will
undoubtedly be raised again, if we're so lucky that Digicool decides to
open up Zope for read/write CVS access.

Another question is whether or not it's legal to use GPL-ed Zope

That is a hard question.  I don't know whether Zope is just an interpreter
or contains facilities that, in effect, the user program links with.
It makes a difference.
 
If the former, you can run programs on Zope regardless of their
licenses.
 
If the latter, then in general, you can't take someone's GPL-covered
code and combine it with Zope, because the Zope license is
GPL-incompatible.
 
If someone wrote a GPL-covered program specifically for Zope, you are
pretty safe taking that as implicit permission to combine it with
Zope.  But it would be better for them to give explicit permission.

Yes, you can distribute a GPL-compatible licensed code with GPL
licensed code without licencing the former under GPL.  Take a look in the
Linux-kernel source tree for example.

And yes, it would be very interesting to see the underlying reason(s) for
the ZPL..

[Zope-dev] ZPL and GPL licensing issues

2001-06-20 Thread Morten W. Petersen

Hi there,

we @ thingamy are considering changing our license to a ZPL-ish one [1] to
better serve our clients' needs.  However, some of the (Zope) products
we've developed may need to rely on GPL'ed code, or needs to be
incorporated within it, and the 'obnoxious advertising clause'
seemingly puts a stop to it..

The ZPL is listed as a license incompatible with the GPL, but it doesn't
really say clearly what the reason is, as far as we can figure, it's
because of the advertising clause.

Anyways, I'm wondering if any of you have encountered the same issue
developing Zope products and any solutions towards it.

Some interesting articles, food for thought:

[Zope-dev] Non-undoable storage

2001-06-12 Thread Morten W. Petersen

Hia guys,

during testing of a mail product I've discovered that the Data.fs file may
bloat considerably after storing 50 messages.  Packing the database will
reduce the Data.fs file to 20 MB (from 40 MB).  Another thing is that
storing 50 messages takes a *long time* on a 600Mhz 256 MB RAM system.

The thing that struck me was that transactions may cause a lot of
overhead, both in database size and for execution speed, so, the thing I'm
wondering about is if there exists a non-undoable storage, or something
similar that doesn't support transactions..

Another thing I noticed BTW, is that retrieving 500 messages and packing
the database on every 50th message (all messages retrieved during one
request) would lead to off the charts memory usage, the process ended up
using 700 MB of RAM (had to add swap files as the footprint grew!)

Cheers,

Morten

[Zope-dev] ZCatalog features

Hia guys,

A couple of comments and questions about the ZCatalog:

Is it possible to pass an argument to the catalog so that returned brains
would instead be actual objects?

Given that we have to manually join search results, because ZCatalog
doesn't support ORs etc (for FieldIndexes), wouldn't it be useful to have
some sort of tool that could take a set of results, and return a result
with only unique values?

[Zope-dev] Ensuring 'freshness' of dynamic pages (slightly offtopic)

2001-03-11 Thread Morten W. Petersen

Hi guys,

I've been trying to ensure that documents from a certain website are
always fresh, that is, every request for a new page must be validated
before the client sees it.

I've tried using these HTTP Cache-control directives:

no-cache
no-store
max-age (1)
must-revalidate

but no such luck.  If I for example specify 'Check against server: Never'
in IE, the pages are cached, no matter what.

Is it possible to ensure that pages are always fresh, even if it is
specified on the client side that the client should never try to
retrieve a 'fresher' page?

I've been contemplating a new solution, which is to append a string
like ?ensure_freshness=02349025180.12 (some random, unique id) on each
link, but that's not a thing which I wish to do now, at such a late
stage in the project.

Also, it strikes me that it isn't possible to specify multiple
cache-control directives with the current HTTPRequest implementation,
am I missing something here, or is this a bug / missing feature?

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Morten

Will the new data be 'made ready for indexing' before it is compared to the

I'm wondering because it would be significant overhead to 'make a data field

exists in the ZCatalog.

[Zope-dev] ZCatalog hackery

2001-03-01 Thread Morten W. Petersen

Hi guys,

I've got a problem with ZCatalog.  I've got plenty of large
objects, ranging from 100KB to 100MB in size.  Needless to
say, these take up a lot of processor time when indexed by
the ZCatalog.

Now, these object have to be moved from time to time, only
moved, so that one or two of the related columns and indexes
are affected (the path and the parent container id); is
there a way to go around this so that those two, the
one column and the index are updated, and not, let's say
the indexed body (which is 100KB - 100MB in size) ?

[Zope-dev] Storing lots of big objects in containers

2001-02-24 Thread Morten W. Petersen

Hi guys,

A product I'm currently developing has a rather big (in many
ways) problem.  A product instance may store many, (thousands)
of big objects, ranging from 1-50 MB in size.

Now, whenever the product instance is accessed, with say for
example 100 objects with a size of 2MB each, Zope slows down
to a crawl, and spends a lot of time loading (I assume) the
objects from the ZODB, even though only 10 objects are
actually accessed.

..I can't really use any external storages, as the reason for
bringing these objects into the ZODB was to structure them
and make then indexable by ZCatalog.  And there's probably
no time for ZPatterns.

Someone suggested using BTreeFolder, but the documentation
and examples for it are rather scarce.   Does anyone know
of products that make a good example use of BTreeFolder?

Would BTreeFolder work for this?  Are there better alternatives?

Thank you for your time,

Morten

I've been struggling with a problem, namely ConflictErrors.

At times, a long-running process may add 100, 1000, 1
objects to a single folder.  Under this process, several
ConflictErrors may be raised, but they are captured, and
the transaction committed again.  Problem solved.

However, the other side of the problem is that regular
requests, from other users, may be be aborted, and as a
result the user is presented with a Zope Error screen,
which says ConflictError.

If I've understood this correctly, it is because the
ZODB connection is hosed, and innocent reads trigger
ConflictErrors.

So, I'm wondering about turning up the number of Exceptions
each request may handle (it's 3 now, right?) and just
hope that the exception isn't raised more than 10-20
times.

Where can I increase the number of accepted exceptions
per request?

Any thoughts on the solution itself?

Cheers,

Morten

FileStorage type database was implicit, as we're discussing ZODB,

Sorry?  Didn't I say kernel version 2.4.0 or greater?  The 2GB problem
(in ext2) is fixed there you know.

..and a side note for ReiserFS, I've had it mess up a filesystem
completely, so much for 1 second recovery after a crash.  ;-)

[Zope-dev] Re: ThreadSafeCounter

2001-02-12 Thread Morten W. Petersen

[Andy McKay]

| I released FSPoll recently and was going to combine the two into one
| FSCountThing with FSPoll and FSCounter subclassing of it, so maybe we could
| co-operate on ThreadSafeCounter and FSCounter?

The ideal solution would be to use an object that lives in the ZODB, I wonder
if there is a way to keep the 'object history' empty?  That is, keeping
the counter 'packed' while retaining 'object history' information on all other
objects.

In any case, I think it's possible to implement a file-locking module,
that locks the file using a .lock extension (writing the pid of the
locking process to that file) or something like that..  Which should
work on Linux and Windows (and most other OS')

Should I toss up a Wiki?

Good point. I don't think so.  It could be that it is kept in sync

Re: [Zope-dev] ThreadSafeCounter 0.0.1 released

2001-02-11 Thread Morten W. Petersen

[Chris Withers]

| So would a counter such as:
| 
| class PersistentCounter(Persistent):
| 
| # create the counter
| def __init__(self, value=0):
| self._value = value
| 
| # get the value of the counter without incrementing
| def getValue(self):
| return self._value
| 
| # increment the counter when called, and return the new value
| def __call__(self, number=1):
| self._value = self._value + number
| return self._value
| 
| ...not be thread safe?

I'm not sure whether the code above is thread safe or not.  ThreadSafeCounter was
made because

I don't know enough about Zope internals to determine whether
or not the counter would return unique values, nor do I
know enough about threads to be completely sure that it
would, every time.

File locking is a simple concept, and easy to understand.

As I've understood it, two threads serving requests have a copy each of the
database, and only when changes are committed are they reflected in
the database.  Therefore, two requests created at the same time could
get an identical copy and therefore and identical value.

..so, it basically boils down to the fact that it's simple to use file locking.

Morten

[Zope-dev] ZClasses vs. Python Products

2001-02-03 Thread Morten W. Petersen

Hi peeps,

I'm trying to figure out whether to continue work on
an existing ZClass product, or rewrite it from scratch.

I get a claustrophobic feeling working with ZClasses,
and using Python products is more intuitive to me..
I've also seen several people (including guys from DC)
refer to ZClass products as (paraphrasing) not-so-good
and half-baked..

Anyways, would you care to help me list the pros and cons
for ZClasses and Python products?

The greatest features of ZClasses are, AFAICS:

TTW editing, very good for interface designers
Rapid prototyping
Easiliy transferable products

(If you think there's anything missing from that very short
 list, please share your thoughts..)

And the greatest features of Python products is:

Full control of *everything*

Now, rapid prototyping in Python products can be achieved using
products like mkzprod[1].

And, if there could be some facility to edit all DTML and image files
related to a Python product TTW, (and maybe be able to 'subclass'
or override these on a per product instance basis), I can't see
any *good* reason to develop products with ZClasses.

[1] mkzprod: http://www.zope.org/Members/eenge/mk-zprod

Hoping for a good discussion..

Cheers,

Morten

BTW: I've basically made up my mind, and it'll be Python products.
If I can make the DTML and images editable TTW that is...

[Zope-dev] How to avoid ConflictErrors ?

2001-01-28 Thread Morten W. Petersen

Hi zopers,

I'm having problems with a product I'm developing.  The product is part of the
ZopeGUM package, the GUM product.  If you have a look in gum.py in that
product, you can see a method named _retrieve_messages, which can at
times store enourmous amounts of objects and data in one transaction.

Now, if I access the GUM instance at the same time as this method is being
called, I may either get a ConflictError raised in the page, or in the
Zope debug output. 

I've read all the posts I could find regarding ConflictErrors, and they
mention that careful programming could help in avoiding these exceptions.
I'm assuming that this applies only to whenever two threads are trying
to *modify* the same object; and frankly, I can't see where I'm modifying
any objects, unless modifying one object, an rfc822_message instance in
a message_container instance also somehow modifies the message_container.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks & cheers,

Morten

[Zope-dev] AttributeError when adding ZClass product (PortalMembership)

2001-01-26 Thread Morten W. Petersen

Hi guys,

I have a problem with a product.  This product, let's call it product
SuperSecret, adds a number of folderish objects to the new instance
when it is created.  Now, if we name the SuperSecret product instance for
a, and the class instance that raises the AttributeError b, I
will show you what happens:

I am at the root folder of the Zope instace, and select the SuperSecret
entry from the Products list.  There I enter the relevant information,
and submit the form.  But then, the SuperProduct raises an exception
when the manage_add_some_class function tries to add the new b instance
to the a instance.  (No exception is raised when the offending line
which tries to access the Control_Panel via the b instance & acquisition
is commented out).

The manage method, which looks like this:

def manage_add_b(self, id, description, REQUEST=None):
"Add an instance of the b class."

self._setObject(id, b(id, description))
#get_transaction().commit()
Shared.utils.install_authentication_folder(self[id])

which calls an external function, which looks like this:

def install_authentication_folder(container):


container.Control_Panel.Products.PortalMembership.doInstall(folder=container, 
REQUEST={})

which raises an AttributeError that looks like this:

   Zope Error

   Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource. 

   Error Type: AttributeError
   Error Value: Control_Panel

   [...]

  File /home/morten/Zope/lib/python/Products/rs/rs.py, line 56, in manage_add_a
  File /home/morten/Zope/lib/python/Products/SuperSecret/a.py, line 168, in 
__init__
(Object: CatalogAware)
  File /home/morten/Zope/lib/python/Products/SuperSecret/b.py, line 61, in 
manage_add_b

  File /home/morten/Zope/lib/python/Products/SuperSecret/Shared/utils.py, line 
211, in install_authentication_folder
(Object: CatalogAware)
  AttributeError: (see above)

Now, I guess this could be because the new instance isn't aware of it's
surroundings, but I've tried to manually commit the transaction (which
could help?), but obviously didn't...  =)

I guess it could be a solution to call a number of methods after the
product instance is added, but that's a bit too hackish for me.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Morten

[Zope-dev] Calling HTMLFiles

manage_add_calendar_event_form = HTMLFile('calendar_event_add', globals())
conflicting_events_dialogue = HTMLFile('calendar_event_conflicting_events_dialogue',

expand_hour = lambda x: x * 60 * 60
expand_minute = lambda x: x * 60

def manage_add_calendar_event(self, title='', note='',
alarm=0, start=0, end=0,
priority=0, status=0,
REQUEST=None, RESPONSE=None):
"Add an instance of the calendar_event class."

new_id = str(self.get_unique_id())

if REQUEST:

alarm = expand_hour(REQUEST['alarm_hour']) + \
expand_minute(REQUEST['alarm_minute'])

start = expand_hour(REQUEST['start_hour']) + \
expand_minute(REQUEST['start_minute'])

end = expand_hour(REQUEST['end_hour']) + \

Now, if there are any conflicting events, the HTMLFile is returned, with
some parameters passed along.

What I'm wondering about is how can I pass the variables defined

It seems I misunderstood the term fuzzy logic myself.  Fuzzy logic means
if I search for a word, for example 'programmer', it will return matches
to the words 'program', 'programming','programmable' etc.

I.e., it will somewhat intelligently return words that are similar in
what they mean, using grammar rules (chopping off endings of words and
making them match others).

Hmm.

Cheers,

Morten

Well, to try to explain the problem:

If I have 1.000.000 objects catalogued, all of the meta type
Person, and I want to find all the instances matching the
regexp-pattern '?Peter' on those objects' attribute
firstname, and the regexp-pattern '???ne' on that objects'
attribute lastname, how could I effectively implement that?

I.e., is there a need to get down on the C level to get
a reasonably fast search?

Am I making any sense?

Cheers,

Morten

[Zope-dev] ZCatalog and 'fuzzy logic'

2001-01-09 Thread Morten W. Petersen

Is there anyone who could try to give an estimate of how long it would
take to add fuzzy logic (regexp-like) searching capability to the
ZCatalog?

And reasoning as to why would be appreciated. ;)

[Zope-dev] LoginManager and PTK

2000-12-21 Thread Morten W. Petersen

Hi guys,

I previously posted a couple of functions that enables users to
login at a lower level in the tree-structre than where the actual
user folder is.

I.e.,

a user could enter username and password at

/a

and get redirected to

/a/a/a/a/b

(the acl_users folder would be located in /a/a/a/a).

Now, there is a minor problem, because I can't seem to figure out
how to login the user to the actual context /a/a/a/a, except
maybe first redirecting the user to /a/a/a/a and then letting
the user log in from there..

Any thoughts / ideas?  And if you've got a completely different solution,
I'd be glad to hear it.  =)

Thanks.

[Zope-dev] A groupware package for zope

2000-12-19 Thread Morten W. Petersen

For the last couple of months I've been working on a groupware
package for Zope, named ZopeGUM.  It has reached version
0.1.63 now, and it's in steady progress.

All the planned components, like messenger, address book,
calendar, todos, etc. are there and working now; though
it's definently not ready for a production enviroment yet.

Anyways, just wanted to let you all know. (And yes, I
do appreciate feedback.  =)

Re: [Zope-dev] Loginmanager and local roles

2000-12-19 Thread Morten W. Petersen

[Morten W. Petersen]

| Any suggestions?

Found the problem.  There needs to be a method called user_names
in the acl_users folder, which returns all the user ids:

"""
self
user_ids = self.UserSource.getPersistentItemIDs()

user_ids2 = []

for id in user_ids:
user_ids2.append(id)

return user_ids2
"""

(Can't understand why I had to use an additional list though).

Cheers.

[Zope-dev] Loginmanager and local roles

2000-12-19 Thread Morten W. Petersen

Using LoginManager, I can't seem to map local roles to
users that are stored in LoginManager instances.

I.e.:

if this acl_users is a LoginManager

/a/b/c/acl_users

then any object in

/a/b/c/d

will not show any of the users stored in the nearest
acl_users object in the local roles management menu..

Any suggestions?
