It operates by acting as a medusa server, essentially coopting Zope's asyncore mainloop and injecting fake requests into Zope's ZPublisher. Despite the complicated description, it's rather easy to use. Installing with buildout If you are using buildout to manage your instance installing ClockServer is very simple. You can install it by adding it to the eggs line for your instance: [instance] eggs = Products.ClockServer If another egg package depends on Products.ClockServer you do not need to specify anything in the buildout configuration: buildout will detect this automatically. After updating the configuration you need to run the ''bin/buildout'', which will take care of updating your system. Installing without buildout Move (or symlink) the ClockServer folder of this project (Products.ClockServer/Products/ClockServer) into the Products directory of the Zope instance it has to be installed for, and restart the server. You may also download a traditional tarball that you unpack into Products from here. Configuring Your Zope Instance to Use the ClockServer Product In order to allow you to use the clock-server directive place the following lines in the [instance] section of your buildout configuration buildout.cfg file: [instance] zope-conf-additional= %import Products.ClockServer clock-server method /do_stuff period 60 user admin password 123 host localhost /clock-server The clock-server should be beneath the import line and define the script to be run and of often, /do_stuff every 60 seconds in this case. Any number of clock-server sections may be defined within a single zope.conf. Note that you must specify a username/password combination with the appropriate level of access to call the method you've defined. Then you need to update your buildout's environment, to do that just run: $ bin/buildout -v Descriptions of the values within the clock-server section follow: method the traversal path (from the Zope root) to an executable Zope method (Python Script, external method, product method, etc). The method must take no arguments. period the number of seconds between each clock tick (and thus each call to the above method). The lowest number providable here is typically 30 (this is the asyncore mainloop timeout value). user a zope username. password the password for the zope username provided above. host the hostname passed in via the Host: header in the faux request. Could be useful if you have virtual host rules set up inside Zope itself. Making Sure the Clock Is Working Examine your Z2.log file. It should show requests incoming via a Zope Clock Server useragent.

Re: [Zope] cron or time server
Here are few products to do, but some does not func, or blows ZODB. If you have linux, use /etc/crontab and wget, it is rugged and stable. - Original Message - From: Garry Saddington ga...@schoolteachers.co.uk Does anyone know of a time/cron server for Zope that works.
