Hi All, I wrote a simple UserFolder application that did not use any cookies or the session management stuff. The UserSource was a MySQL db. ( Tried mysqlUserFolder but it was too restrictive interms of database structure for my purposes ). I then used ZSession to handle session and cookie management and it works great.
When I have a Authenticated-View only folder the browser pops up a box and I need to login. It authenticated from the db and I go on my merry way. What I am trying to do is to is to have a logon form that allows the user to logon, verifies the user and redirects it to a members page. However it doesnt seem to do that. The login and the logout functions are given below. 'validate' is the method that is called everytime Zope decides on the roles and whther the role by the user has access to the resource. user_login__roles__ = None def user_login (Self, REQUEST, RESPONSE, username, password, create_global = 1, login_goto_path = "../../members/"): # Create authorization variable ac = encodestring('%s:%s' % (username, password)) auth = 'Basic %s' % ac Self.validate(REQUEST, auth) return RESPONSE.redirect (login_goto_path) user_logout__roles__ = ['MySQLUserRole'] def user_logout (Self, REQUEST,RESPONSE): """ Terminates user session """ user = Self.check_valid_mysql_user (REQUEST) Self.__terminate_session(REQUEST) realm=RESPONSE.realm RESPONSE.expireCookie('__ac',path='/') RESPONSE.expireCookie('_ZSession',path='/') RESPONSE.setStatus(401) RESPONSE.setHeader('WWW-Authenticate', 'basic realm="%s"' % realm, 1) RESPONSE.setBody("""<html> <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL=http://kandinsky:8080/test_folder/logged_out"> <head><title>Logout</title></head> <body> <p> You have been logged out. </p> </body> </html>""") return The problem is that even when I login and 'validate' accepts the credentials, the browser still pops up a box. What am I doing wrong?? . The logout works fine but there is a minor problem in that too which I had posted earlier. TIA.
