Re: [Zope] custom_zodb.py

2006-09-06 Thread Paul Winkler
Unless you are using Zope 2.6, don't do that.

For Zope 2.7 or later, see the 2.7 version of the book
at plope.com.  Some chapters were never updated from the 2.6 version
but even so it's much improved.

For zope 2.7 or later, what you want to do is now done by editing zope.conf.

 To change this setting, create a file called custom_zodb.py in your
 Zope installation directory. In this file, put the following code:
 
 Am not sure which directory Zope installation directory pertains to.
 
 Is this the fresh directory from the Zope .tar.gz file ?
 
 Or is this the already-installed directory ? Or would it be the instance
 directory ? If so, which subdirectory do I place custom_zodb.py ?

Per http://www.plope.com/Books/2_7Edition/MaintainingZope.stx#2-27 , it
still says write your own custom_zodb.py .

Can you point me to the exact location ?

Argh, I believe this means the book is still out of date on that point.

I've never needed to tweak the number of connections, but AFAICT
googling for pool-size  and either zodb or zope.conf may be
helpful.

I agree with you, Jens.

[CW]
Why wouldn't it still work fine, apart from some minor Control Panel 
barfage?

[DM]
because it is *very* confusing to see a specific configuration
in the configuration file which is not used (because
it is by magic overridden through custom_zodb)
and see information in Control_Panel -- Database management
-- main which has nothing to do with what is really in effect.

You will agree that it is confusing at best to even allow a  
completely different and totally unmaintained way of configuring  
these things. zope.conf is the way it should be done, and people who  
don't do it yet should be reminded to change their config.

RE: [Zope] custom_zodb.py and Control_Panel

  v2.7.4 running on Linux - I'm trying to use this (custom_zodb.py in
  INSTANCE_HOME)
 
 custom_zodb.py is no longer used for Zope 2.7.x. You define 
 databases in zope.conf.
 
Ah, OK thanks.

Is it for the collector that, aside from messing up the ZMI a bit, the
custom_zodb.py approach is still basically effective?
