You can use configure --prefix=/path/to/dir to install (at least Zope 2)
into a custom location. This might also work for Zope 3. In addition
you must adjust the ports in etc/zope.conf (for Zope 2) in order to run
multiple Zope instances on different ports.

Re: [Zope] pointers in zope (newbie question)

2006-04-27 Thread Peter Bengtsson
I've done a similar app where there's an archive of files (zope File 
objects) that I'm doing stuff with in another place.

I happily used::

 return self.unrestrictedTraverse(self.actual_path)

in a class that looks something like this::

class VirtualFile(SimpleItem):
def __init__(self, id, actual_path):
self.id = id
self.actual_path = actual_path

 def _get_actual_object(self):
""" return the real object this refers to """
return self.unrestrictedTraverse(self.actual_path)

def get_size(self):
obj = self._get_actual_object()
return obj.get_size()

Note, this problem is due to a non-core product somewhere incorrectly
managing local roles, and passing them as tuples instead of lists. All
the internals of Zope (and here, CMF) assume that __ac_local_roles__ is
a dict of string->list.

I've seen odd things before, but I agree, it isn't likely that it's a
monkey patch. Chances are that some product is outdated.

You can't overwrite the manage URL with Zope, it's just not allowed. I
suspect there's some external URL rewriting happening here. Either
that or the guy was a real PITA and rewrote Zope to work with his pet
ideas.

This is really odd. It sounds like it could be getting patched

see if one gets there.

Restart Zope. Python will pick up the changes. Also, if you're
modifying security code, make sure you set
security-policy-implementation to Python in zope.conf, otherwise
you're using the C one, and no matter what changes you make to the
Python scripts you won't see any changes.

Find a heavy object, find the developer, bring the two together at
speed. Repeat until the problem is fixed.

yoursite/manage will get you to the control panel. If he's managed to
override /manage then you have problems...

And the real problem:

> TypeError: can only concatenate tuple (not "list") to

Like it says, you're supplying a list, you want a tuple. It looks like
you need to update PluginIndexes, I don't know where they come from.

[Zope] newbie question

2005-05-24 Thread Barry Drake
I'm getting an error in CMFCore.utils in the
_mergedLocalRoles function.  The error is:

Exception Type  TypeError
Exception Value can only concatenate tuple (not
"list")
to tuple

I modify utils.py, after saving a copy, in order to
obtain diagnostic output.  Then I delete utils.pyc,
after saving a copy, in order to force a recompile
(even used compilezpy.py for this a couple of times). 
Zope never seems to use the new version.

Also, I added comments ahead of the line where the
error occurs so that the line number should be higher
than the original error line number.  But, it's always
the same.

I suspect that I have a fundamental misunderstanding
of how Zope uses code in the Products directory.  

Is Zope storing all the compiled byte code in the
data.fs file?  Is there a way to force Zope to use new
code?

Also, the previous developer removed the Control Panel
putting Plone as the root of everything.  How can I
get information that the Control Panel usually
provides?

System: Zope 2.7.1, Plone 2.0.5, Python 2.3.4, Red Hat

Thank you.

these variables are part of the REQUEST namespace.
Specifically you can do

 to display the browswer
version. Creating conditional code is left as an excersize
for the student.

If you want to display a complete list of all HTTP REQUEST
variables, try this:

[Zope] Newbie question: HTTP variables

2001-01-12 Thread Dean & Deb Ekstrand

I'm trying to figure out Zope (on a time crunch, too), and I'm wondering how
to do something.  How can I access HTTP variables in my DTML code?
Specifically, I want to return code specific to the user's browser.  I know
that HTTP has provisions for determing browser version, are those accessible
in DTML and how?  If they are not accessible in DTML, is there a workaround
(without oodles of javascript)?

Another quick question:  I see that Zope 2.3 will have "Script" objects.
What's the closest I can come in Zope 2.2.5?

Thanks,
Michael

[Zope] Newbie question - Link between Methods based on Authorization

2000-12-19 Thread Michal Krejza

I am still newbie in Zope, so my question may be stupid - sorry.

I have problem with access to method. Example - There are two methods: A and
B. Method A contains common information, accessible for all user (include
anonymous). Source code in method B updates data for method A and access for
method B is restrict only for users with roles "AdminTables". There is a
link from method A to method B in the code of script A, and this link is
viewable for all user (also for anonym). After click on this link, user is
asked for authentication. So there is no problem, but HOW MAKE THIS LINK
VIEWABLE ONLY FOR USER WITH AUTORIZATION FOR OBJEKT B ???

Thx for your tips, Michal

You schould never do so. Unquoted variables in SQL-statements are high
security risc if they came from REQUEST. As an example someone can
send a string which ends a statement and begins a new one, like drop
table.
Instead reference only an index of a list with the columns to sort.

oder by  is also a solution.
The index ranges from 1 to number of returned values.

Tino

Not directly.

Almost surely, your "index_html" is a DTML document.
A DTML document defines the method "objectValues" and it
returns the empty list.
One *might* think of this as a bug or a feature.
(I tend to think of it as a bug).

In a DTML document (unlike a DTML method), the object
is pushed on top of the namespace stack.
Therefore, the "objectValues" in your navigation object
is the "objectValues" of the "index_html" and it returns
"[]".

If you would make your "index_html" a DTML method,
then "objectValues" would be the method of the
object for which the method is called for. This
means your folder. And it would work.

[Zope] Newbie question, help with navigation method

2000-12-05 Thread Richard Blumberg

I've a Zope newbie, trying to set up a Zope site at zope.org, and I'm 
running into problems with what seems like it should be a fairly 
simple navigation method.

I've replaced the standard_html_header and footer methods with my 
own, which create a simple two column table; I'm trying to get the 
navigation information into the left column. I've established a 
nav_title property on the two pages that I want to show up in the 
navigation list, with the values "Home" and "Biography", and I've 
written a nav_vertical method to display the list:







I've embedded a call to that method in the standard_html_header method:








   
 http://www.zope.org/Members/rblumberg/images/rbRight" width="50" 
height="60">
 
   
 
   
   
 


 

(The table cells are closed in the standard_html_footer.)

Now, the nav_vertical method works exactly as planned when I call it directly:

http://www.zope.org/Members/rblumberg/nav_vertical

The header method also displays correctly (even without the closing 
tags, at least in MSIE 5) when it is called directly:

http://www.zope.org/Members/rblumberg/standard_html_header

But the pages which call the new header don't display the navigation list:

http://www.zope.org/Members/rblumberg/index_html

Is this a bug in Zope, or am I doing something wrong?

You can change the properties of an object in DTML by callling its
manage_changeProperties method, for example:



will changes the value of foo's bar property to 'New Value'.

There are several ways of getting the effect of assigning variables in
DTML, but it really isn't meant to have a direct way of declaring and
assigning variables.  The way you're trying to use an object's properties
will, I believe, cause problems in the case of simultaneous users, because
it will act as a global variable.

[Zope] newbie question -- database list/report with sort by column header

be able to give the user the option to re-sort the list by clicking on a
column header. ok... I'm starting small with a form and radio buttons to
allow the user to specify the sort.

I've created what I believe to be a global variable for this page using

sort. My simple question is how do I assign a value to this variable

[Zope] Newbie question

2000-11-29 Thread gpgreen

I am just getting started in Zope and have what is probably an obvious question.
I have an external method that returns a list. I understand how to write
dtml to iterate through the list using . My question is how do
I write a dtml-method that takes the current sequence-item and does something
in it.

So in index_html


 
  



And in the other dtml-method, how do I access the sequence-item passed in?

Thanks,

Very nice. Now how do I reference the variable in the_other_dtml_method? I 
assume it is in the other methods namespace, but what name does it have?

Well, I don't have that method. Went to learn about what people use it
for - searched for manage_afterAdd on zope.org and got nothing at
all???

Anyway, I'm now redirecting in manage_Add and it seems to work fine.

I hope, you do not need the redirect in your constructor
as in the constructor the newly created object is not yet
tied into the web site hierarchy via acquisition.
If the object, say "self", is already tied in, then
you can use "self.REQUEST.RESPONSE.redirect()".

If you need it in the constructor, then you must
either pass in an object that is tied by acquisition
or REQUEST or RESPONSE itself,
or you must move the call out into the method
"manage_afterAdd" (where the object already is tied in).

Thanks for the warning.
Does this only happen in certain circumstances?

I'm not using an External Method or a Python Script or whatever those
things are called now. I'm doing it in a Product. Does that matter?

Aha, thanks. I didn't know that about the publisher.

Now I'm afraid I'm too stupid to see how to use RESPONSE.redirect
after reading the description in the Zope Book API appendix.

My method now looks like this:

def manage_addMyProduct(self, id, title='', REQUEST=None,
RESPONSE=None):
"""Add a MyProduct instance to the folder."""
self._setObject(id, MyProduct(id, title))
if REQUEST is not None:
whereto= REQUEST['URL3']
return RESPONSE.redirect(whereto, 0)


That just prints the URL as a string.
OK, so maybe I'm not supposed to use the return value?
So I try it like this:


def manage_addMyProduct(self, id, title='', REQUEST=None,
RESPONSE=None):
"""Add a MyProduct instance to the folder."""
self._setObject(id, MyProduct(id, title))
if REQUEST is not None:
whereto= REQUEST['URL3']
RESPONSE.redirect(whereto, 0)


Now when I submit the form, I can wait for a result forever and not
get anything.

How am I *really* supposed to do it?

Re: [Zope] newbie question: Redirect from Python?

You need to be careful when redirecting from an external Python wotsit.

RESPONSE.redirect raises an exception which can make the transaction get
rolled back.

This seems not to happen when called from dtml but I've seen it happen from
an external Python wotsit.

Note:

My use of wotsit above in no way has a bearing on the new name for the
Python Methods/ZMethods/Script or whatever the hell they are called now. ;)

So pass it RESPONSE:

def manage_addMyProduct(self, blah, blah, REQUEST=None, RESPONSE=None):
  ...

The publisher will automaticaly pass you RESPONSE if you ask for it as a
method argument.  Now use RESPONSE.redirect.

Thanks for the reply.
OK, I didn't phrase the question correctly.

I think it boils down to this:
If I have a string that represents a URL, can I define a method of my
product (in python, not in DTML) that redirects the browser to that
URL?

More details:


My product code is based on Boring (like most newbies I guess).
But manage_addBoring() does not do quite what I want. It returns
self.manage_main(self, REQUEST), so they end up at a long and ugly URL
that isn't where I want them to be anyway.

Example:
 the user is at:

http://localhost.localdomain:8080/Members/bobby

Bobby then clicks on a button I've provided that says "Add Test
Product". That sends him to the add form I've created. When Bobby
submits the request from this form, the product is added and he's sent
to

http://localhost.localdomain:8080/Members/bobby/manage_addProduct/MyProduct/manage_main
 

...because manage_addMyProduct returns self.manage_main
So I understand what's happening, but it's not what I want.
I don't want to send him there, I want to send him back to 

http://localhost.localdomain:8080/Members/bobby

So how can I do that from within the manage_addMyProduct method
definition?
The method gets a REQUEST argument, and I know that REQUEST['URL3'] is
what I want because if I return that string, it prints the URL I want.

I could do it by returning an HTML page with a redirect in the 
but that seems like a horribly ugly solution.


Looking through various Zope docs, I thought RESPONSE.redirect might
work, but  RESPONSE is not mentioned anywhere in Boring.py. Boring
only uses REQUEST.

sounds alright to me.  are you calling it in quotes, e.g.  ?

you shouldn't have to use the REQUEST to look up the variable, either:

RE: [Zope] Newbie Question Fixed but continuing.

2000-11-24 Thread Dany Rioux

Thanks! That's exactly what I was looking for.

I know that the DTML reference is there on Zope.org but it's a hassle
and well, I'll keep my other opinions for myself.

Anyway. Here's an idea. Shouldn't there be a list FAQ? If there is one
it should be sent when subscribing. Or it could be requested. I'm
pretty sure most of the questions I sent have already been sent &
answered more than once already and I know some that most other FAQs
use one. So, why not zope general list? It *is* possible, though
unlikely, that there is a list FAQ mentionned in the "Welcome to Zope
mailing list" email but if there is, my apologies.

Thanks.

2000-11-24 Thread Dany Rioux

Thanks Philipp and Jim,

It worked! But... (there's always a but! :) I thought I was clever
when I thought about naming my news files news999, news998 etc,
thinking it would parse the directory and print the news sorted by
their names. So news998 would be printed before news999 etc. It
doesn't.

 :) 

Now this too is fixed. I just discovered the "sort=" thingie.

One thing would sure be helpful, a Guide explaining all the subtags in
a tag. Like what can be used in a  or  and params
for each subtag. Because as someone mentioned, searching on zope is a
real hassle. It takes a long time, and the search is ORed. So lots of
unrelated docs are counted as a hit.

Thanks a lot to all the helpers.

This doesn't work. Nothing gets printed.

In the News folder is a DTML method called news999. Should it be a
DTML document instead for this to work?

I tried the three methods you gave me. objectValues, "objectValues()"
and "objectValues('[File]')" and even "objectValues('[news999]')" but
empty everytime.

[Zope] Newbie Question

2000-11-23 Thread Dany Rioux

Hi everyone,

Simple newbie question... :)

I've made a directory called News into which I will put files named
newsXXX. X being a number from 999 to 001.

What I want to do is to tell zope to put each file into a document.
Now, here is what I figured out.


   <--- that's where I'm stuck. I don't know how to
iterate through a directory ... I want ALL the newsXXX displayed.
  


How do I do that?

TIA

I do believe that our ugly friend REQUEST.set() is the way to go here. I
cannot remember having seen any other way of doing it. I expect that better
days will be here with v.2.3 as we will get Python Methods, or whatever they
are called.

Thanks Max, that is certainly useful in this case.

My query is really more general though, that was just an example, I need to
know what the generally accepted method is for transferring values through
the code (i.e between namespaces)

IMHO as far as Zope documentation goes, the thing that is really lacking is
a document introducing people to how to program in Zope, explaining the
overlaps between Python and Zope/DTML and explaining the different syntaxes
for calling variables, methods etc? There are a lot of references on
specific functions, methods etc but no general overview. Maybe the
forthcoming Zope book will address this better.

I am also still looking for example code using manage_delObjects.

Thanks,

Alex

[Zope] Newbie question(s)

2000-11-12 Thread Bowyer, Alex

Hi,

I have what I'm sure is a very simple question about Zope programming style:
I want to count how many objects are contained in the current container
object and then do something with that value, but I can't do the bit I need
to do at the point of reading the count variable because I am in the wrong
namespace.
I can't begin a dtml-let because I would need to close dtml-if before
dtml-let, which is not allowed.



  




What is the "accepted" way of passing a value into a different scope? Do I
have do a REQUEST.set or is there a tidier way?
Also I think I read somewhere that you can use the object.subobject or
object.property syntax but I never got that to work, what's the catch?

One last thing, I sent a couple of mails to the list about problems I had
with manage_delObjects. I still haven't got it to work. Since the best way
to learn Zope is by example, I wonder if anyone could direct me to a sample
piece of code where a container of some sort deletes one of its children
subobjects?

Thanks very much for your help,

Alex

It would be a list, if you added a "multiple" to your
"select".

This will always be true. It is constant (an expression without
variable, having always the same value independent of context).

What you mean is:

  

This will be true, if "money" has the value "'1000'" in the current
context.

Note the '...' around 1000! Without special Zope magic, request
variables come in as string values. The '...' indicates
a string literal.

You want to look at the upcoming Zope book to learn more
about the possible Zope magic.

yup :)

try

  
This is not much
  
This is OK
  
This is very much
  
   This is not 1000, 5000, or 1
  

the  tag iterates over a list, which isn't appropriate here.

The  is not right. Use dtml-in if you want to iterate over
lists. So in your case you should try:



This is not much!


This is ok!


This is very much!


(or use  in this case)

This now makes a string compare as usually form parameters will be passed
as strings if you don't tell Zope to do it different. In order to e.g. let
it pass integers, you might try in the form:


...

Then you can say , etc.

Another thing you can do, not sure if Im using it right, but the effect is
good...

   
  
You must specify a First Name.


  
  
  
   

I have a support call form that is filed and submitted, and after the button
is pressed, a seperate validate method is called (can be in any document)
which will stop the processing if something isnt there and will show a red
error text at the top of the form that still contains the information.]

Its nice becuase the info stays there and doesnt take you off to a blank
screen with a few words.

Sorry, I was wrong, at least partially!

The fact, that "ZopeTime" returns an unprotected DateTime object,
does of cause not mean that "ZopeTime" itself is unprotected.

After your message, I reexamined your problem:

 * "ZopeTime" is defined in "OFS.Application.Application",
   i.e. the top level application object.

 * "ZopeTime" apparently is not protected by an explicit
   permission (neither mentioned in an "__ac_permissions__"
   nor is there a "ZopeTime__roles__" attribute nor
   is there a new SecurityManager assertion about
   "ZopeTime".

   As I understand Zope 2.2 security, this should mean
   "ZopeTime" is inaccessible from DTML.
   
 * However, magically, "ZopeTime" is protected by "Access Contents
   Information". 

I can not tell you why.
Both is astonishable:
  * that it is accessible by DTML at all
  * why "Access Contents Information" is required.

Apparently, the Zope security still has some hidden magic.

Re: [Zope] Newbie question : ZopeTime & permissions

2000-10-10 Thread Aaron Straup Cope

Yes, it was a misunderstanding regarding basic user permissions and the
Anonymous role on my part.

I did not want to allow the Anonymous role *any* permissions, and the
site I am working in is contained in a folder beneath the root Zope
folder. 

The problem was that I had disabled the "Access contents
information" privilege for the Anonymous user (whose permissions I forgot
are inherited by all other users) at the root level, thus preventing Joe
User from being able to access internals(?) like
ZopeTime even if [it] had permissions at a sub-directory level.

If I've got it wrong, I would be grateful if someone would correct
me. Otherwise, I hope that helps other newbies who find themselves in a
similar situation.

Strange...

"DateTime.DateTime" objects (and therefore "ZopeTime") are
explicitely unprotected (and can be used by everyone).

I tried your example as "Anonymous" (Zope 2.2.2) and
it worked as expected (i.e. no NameError).

[Zope] Newbie question : ZopeTime & permissions

2000-10-06 Thread Aaron Straup Cope

Hi,

My name is Aaron.

I am trying to set up zope with (atleast) three roles : manager, admin,
user.

I'd like to give the last two the bare minimum Security permissions
possible and adding them as needed later on. 

My problem is that I can't seem to figure out, specifically, which
permissions to give a user that will allow them to read ZopeTime().

(see below)

For the admin user, I have set the Access content information and View *
options globally. I've tried guessing at some others, but there are alot
of possible combinations to try so I thought maybe I would just ask.

Related, is there a detailed description of the default Security
settings? I've checked the mailing lists and the Zope docs and if it's
there, I guess I missed it.

Thanks,

[Zope] Newbie-question on ZCatalog

Hi,

I'm trying to build a Catalog with a report table just as the one on
http://classic.zope.org:8080/Collector/tableBrowse?cfDescAndTitle=catalog

That's a table with document-title, date and the first 30 words of the

My problem: how can I insert the content into the ZSearch report-file?
Is there a simple way just like finding out the document-url

That is one option.

However, images have properties of their own.
You can just define a new property "description" and give it
a value.

Look at the "PropertyManager" interface (-> object reference
(-> zdp.zope.org) or interface Wiki (-> dev.zope.org)
or the source.

[Zope] NEWBIE QUESTION: Receive TypeError when scheduling Xron events

2000-09-08 Thread Dwayne Morrison

Hello,

I'm having trouble scheduling events with Xron 0.0.9. I try to create a 
scheduled event as described in the doc:


   


When executed within a DTML method, the code reports this error:

   Error Type: TypeError
   Error Value: keyword parameter redefined

I found that the 0.0.9 version of Xron added a new parameter, periodDays, 
to the method. Adding that produced the same error message. I tried naming 
all parameters also to no avail. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Environment:
Zope version: Zope 2.2.0 (binary release, python 1.5.2, solaris-2.6-sparc)

Thanks in advance,

Re: [Zope] XML and Zope newbie question...

Eric,

Take a look at the XMLDocument product, available from Zope.org.

It already parses the xml into zope objects (they may not be exactly what
you want though), but it may give you a start into what you want.

[Zope] Newbie question: Unhandled requests.

2000-09-07 Thread Hannes


We currently started to run our site using Zope behind Apache using
ProxyPass,
when testing from the outside it
seems that there many (about one-third)  of the  requests that are not
handled by
Zope, the browser seems to recieve nothing,
(means the browser times out),
this behaviour does not depend on the complexity of the document
templates,
it is an overall phenomenon (including management screens etc...).
When pressing reload the things get okay most of the times, but it is
annoying..

Any help would be appreciated.
thanks in advance.

Re: [Zope] Newbie question: FORM processing in Zope.

2000-08-28 Thread Loren Stafford



A great resource for newbies is the collection of How-To's
http://www.zope.org/Documentation/How-To (or better yet:
http://www.zope.org/Members/AlexR/tips/howto_list where you can use browser
search to find what you need).

Search for "forms" and you will see, for example:

http://www.zope.org/Members/jules/smarterforms_html

In short, the methods of Zope objects are all "CGI scripts". For the
"action" of a form, you supply the url of a form-handling method of some
Zope object you have created. When that method runs, form fields are stored
in the dictionary (hash, to you) that implements the namespace for the
request. You access them as simple DTML variables: e.g.



If you want to send the value of that form field on to another form, you do
it much the same as in Perl -- you code a hidden form field and assign it
the value .

-- Hope that helps

Re: [Zope] Newbie question: FORM processing in Zope.

2000-08-28 Thread J. Atwood

Easy and hard answer.

The easy answer is forget what you know about scripts/cgi and pulling in
form variables from some sort of CGI method (perl module). Since Zope is a
constant running process it does not require that you point to a script.

Hard Answer: The basics are that all you have to do is give the form element
a name (as you would in any form) and point the action of the form to
another DTML Method/Document. In that M/D all you have to do to get the
variable is call it with 

1) Create a form page with 'submit' with one text input box with a name of
'email_address'.

2) Point the action to a method called 'result' and create that

3) In the 'result' method include this code 

4) Play around.

When you submit from one you should be taken to the second page and the
email_address should be there.

Now, for validation you can do all sorts of tricky things. I happen to like
to have the form point back to itself and have one method handle the entire
activity. You can validate things by asking for them, or trying to do
something else like put them into a database/email. If they are not there
you will get an error so you can use . What makes Zope great is
that I can have the form and function in the same page (easier to
update/check).

Examples: (these are live and in production so please be kind)

http://fundraising.gotschool.com/tell_a_friend.html

http://market.gotschool.com/  (click on register for either school or
supplier and notice how the form is different for both).

Same thing done twice.

hi,

I am a Perl/CGI programmer, trying out Zope.
I am confused right now about
 HOW TO process FORM variables?
and most important thing is
how to validate form inputs.(like same thing is best done in PERL using
regex)

that is, if I have a html having some form variables and a submit
button. I click on the submit button. it should call some script..right?
My question is how to pass values from one script to another. how is
this done in Zope?

thanks a lot in advance.

The Content Manager Guide still describes the world
before Zope 2.2.

For some reason (that I do not understand), DC descided
that, starting with Zope 2.2.0, the SuperUser is no
longer Super but instead rather limited. He cannot own objects
and therefore, he cannot create objects.

What you need to do:

  As SuperUser go to "acl_users".
  Create a new user with a role of "Manager".
  Close your browser (all windows!).
  Recontact Zope (in a fresh browser!) as your newly created
  Manager.
  Use this manager, whenever your guide speaks of "SuperUser".

You are working as superuser.
While this *did* work up to Zope 2.1.6, since Zope 2.2 the
security model was tightened.

You must (as superuser) create a user with manage privilege,
restart your browser and use that user to create objects.

Can anyone remind me why?

T0he problems it's caused, particularly with broswers caching basic auth
info, seem to be pretty nasty for newbies (and a few oldbies ;-)

cheers,

Re: [Zope] Newbie Question (Content Manager Tutorial)

2000-08-19 Thread Chris McDonough

Darn.  Those docs are a little ( ok, a lot...) out of date.  They're
still useful, but they don't cover a few things.

With the advent of Zope 2.2, the first thing you need to do is to create a
management user.  You cannot use the 'superuser' to manage content.  I
know this is a little unfamiliar, but, for now, just suspend disbelief and
create another user with the 'Manager' role (by visiting the acl_users
User Folder and adding a user).  Then quit the browser, and log in as the
user you created.  You'll then be able to follow the cmg.
