Hi,

I = now=20 have quite a few folders, some with up to 1000 objects in them. I = know ZEO=20 is not very write friendly, but if I switch the Storage back to main .. = i.e.=20 Data.fs(Still as a zeo client), and import data into it, then I find it = is 5-10=20 times faster when doing something as simple as editing small dtml=20 method.

My current system is the following = :

However, it is true that right now Berkeley DB storages are running slower than Data.fs. There are a couple of factors involved; 1) Datafs (FileStorage) is a log oriented file -- ie appends just happen on the end of the file. You dont get much faster than just appending data. By the same token, that's why you have to pack the database periodically. 2) Berkleley storage is still evolving; in the past few months I've heard of several performance tunes, such as increasing the number of locks in the storage, etc. In theory, the Berkeley storage shouldnt be that much slower; most updates should happen to shared memory areas and be destaged asynchronously. However, I am not a new Berkeley DB whiz (I used 1.85 extensively, but thats way old now). If I recall correctly (and I may be mistaken) ZEO serially commits objects to the Storage. So, latencies in your writes will tend to affect your queue times significantly. A good question to ask the zodb-dev list would be "can ZEO be modified to do concurrent wites for some storages?" I may be barking up the wrong tree, but I think some storage methods should be able to support concurrent writes to the storage whereas FileStorage can't (since you can't simultaneously append without getting bad results). matt wrote: > Chris Withers pointed me here to find an answer.

Restart Zope and you will be fine. Is there a way to let Zope do the equivalent of "unload module", btw.?

As far as I can tell, Zope was happily serving requests for weeks from a database that it would not be able to restart from. The backups made during this time are pretty much unusable.

"LD_LIBRARY_PATH" is required whenever a program needs (indirect) access to a shared object which is not in a standard location. What a standard location is can be configured. Under Linux, the configuration is in "/etc/ld.so.conf".

I have recently had some experience with compiling the sy_occ.so library under AIX 5.1 running Sybase 12_5 ASE and OC/S. Here are the results. 1) On AIX, the libsybtcl is just named libtcl, because there is not script-language TCL, which was the only reason for the Sybase-people to call it that way on Linux systems. 2) Sybase 12.5 splits into ASE (Adaptive Server Enterprise ) and OSC (Open Client/Server). You have to set the followin environment variables SYBASE=/usr/local/sybase SYBASE_OCS=OCS-12_5 SYBASE_ASE=ASE-12_5 LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$SYBASE/$SYBASE_OCS/lib 3) The library "libinsck" is not given as a static library, but only as a dynamic one with full version numbers. E.g. libinsck.so.12.5.0. For some reason, compiling sy_occ.so depends on static linked libraries unter AIX. So you have to create a sym-link "libinsck.a" pointing to "libinsck.so.12.5.0". 4) The Setup file for AIX5.1 and Sybase 12.5 is the following *shared* sy_occ sy_occ.c -I$(SYBASE)/$(SYBASE_OCS)/include -L$(SYBASE)/$(SYBASE_OCS)/lib -lcomn -lcs -lct -lintl -ltcl -linsck -lm With these changes, everything works fine. I hope, you find these information usefull and will adapt your Product to cope with AIX and Sybase 12.5. BTW: What about that Sybase Stored Procedures thing? I could really do with them.

ZOracleDA is the Zope Oracle datapter; you only need it if you want to access DCOracle2 from Zope. All of the files are together for the convienience of Zope users (and mine, w.r.t packaging). If you dont use Zope, you can just use DCOracle2/DCOracle2 and the corresponding binary for your platform from the binaries directory, or build from the src directory. .pyc files are "compiled" python bytecodes, .pyd files are "python-DLL" files (ie REAL compiled files). You still have to set up ORACLE_HOME like normal; but on NT systems, that's probably taken care of you by a registry setting (so you dont need it). Pretty much the same for PYTHONPATH -- it will probably be derived from your registry entries for Python, so you'd only need to set it if you installed DCOracle2 in a place the interpreter would not find it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Haden Peterson" To: Sent: Sunday, November 18, 2001 1:52 PM Subject: [Zope-DB] Guide to ZOracleDA/DCOracle2? > Is there any kind of installation guide (other than > the included README) for ZOracle database adapter? > > I'm attempting to install it on a Win2K sytem and need > answers to a few questions... > > What's differentiates ZOracleDA from DCOracle? > Do I need to build one or both of these into a binary > with a C compiler?

So I created a single-row table 'objectid' containing a value 'oid' that is updated each time I want the next value in the sequence. # ZSQL Method next_objectid UPDATE objectid SET oid = LAST_INSERT_ID(oid+1) SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID() AS oid FROM objectid This ZSQL method works as expected when called from a DTML Document but calls from a second ZSQL method (i.e. 'insert_test') generate a sequence of numbers that increase by 2 each time. # ZSQL Method insert_test INSERT INTO test(oid, descr) VALUES (, "Test") Is anybody noticing anything similar, or if you have any opinion on what might be going on, please reply.

Not that I know of, but the interface is quite trivial: _searchable_arguments(self) returns a mapping with argument descriptions: Its "keys()" returns the list of argument names "[argname]" is a dictionary describing the argument. It can have keys "default" and "type" with obvious meaning _searchable_result_columns(self) returns a sequence of result column descriptions Each column description consists of a dictionary with keys "name", "type", "width", "null". __call__(self,....): executes the search. Parameters in REQUEST or explicitely provided as keyword parameters.

Why is it not possible to have the number of the column as the column name, if there is none?

Therefore, it requires, there is a name and that the name is unique. I do not think this will be considered a bug.

"python d:\website\lib\python\products\DCOracle2\test\test1.py" Here I get - "No module named DCOracle2.dco2" - which would seem to indicate that Python can't find it - a path problem. I'm assuming that it's looking for the file named dco2.pyd that lives in DCOracle2\DOracle2. Or does it expect a .py file? Do I have to have a PYTHONPATH environment var set to point to this file? (I've tried it along with including it in regular PATH but without success.) Do I need to build a binary or is this file (dco2.pyd) the binary it's looking for? I tried running nmake against the makefile in the top level (ZOracleDA) directory, but it didn't understand the one of the directives. If you've been through this already - I'd be most appreciative.

There are two kinds of "Results" objects: one with a "dictionaries" method and one without. For unknown reasons, ZODBC uses the one without. This, probably, is a bug. There should not be two independent implementations for "Results" (but they should share most methods, such as e.g. "dictionaries"). Can you put it into the "Collector"?

I have been bitten by this feature, too. I posted a problem description to "zope-dev" (--> mailing list archives) and made a Collector entry (now probably lost due to the ill fate of the old collector). Maybe, you search my post and recreate a Collector entry. However, I do not have much hope that the problem (bug) will get fixed in the near future.

You can insert an EMPTY_CLOB() into a table row, then select it for=20 update; but DCO2 isn't smart enough to let you instantiate a LOB outside=20 of Oracle and then insert it automatically. So, you might INSERT INTO MY_TABLE (MY_CLOB, LOBID) VALUES ( EMPTY_CLOB(), MY_LOBID= ) SELECT MY_CLOB FROM MY_TABLE WHERE LOBID =3D MY_LOBID FOR UPDATE then you'll get a writable LOB object back from the database, so you can=20 call its read() write() trim() and length() methods. You'll notice the=20 problem that unless you use a stored procedure, you've got two SQL=20 statments being executed. Fortunately, DCO2's ZOracleDA provides stored=20 procedure wrappers, to make invoking Oracle stored procedures from Zope=20 a bit easier (although the default permisison excludes execute=20 permission so you have to enable it explicitly -- just to 'help' people=20 accidentally not expose their stored procedures to the world). You have to usually do an extra gymnastic step to get the LOB object,=20 since the result from a SQL method is a result set, so you have to pull=20 out the first cell (iterate over "all" of 1 rows then use the named colum= n). =20 From Carsten.Hoff@BASF-IT-Services.com Wed Nov 28 16:36:08 2001 From: Carsten.Hoff@BASF-IT-Services.com (Carsten.Hoff@BASF-IT-Services.com) Date: Wed, 28 Nov 2001 17:36:08 +0100 Subject: [Zope-DB] DCOracle2 - Invalid connection string Message-ID: Hello together, both, compiling or installation of binaries, leads to the following prob.

Launching Zope from init can be different -- can you launch Zope manually and confirm that you still have errors with the connection string? Also, could you also export DCO2TRACEDUMP=/tmp/dco2.tracedump before starting Zope, and send me the tracedump file it writes to tmp? Zope can say "invalid connection string" even when the Oracle connection string is good -- it can cover up other errors that occured while trying to connect. Also, because I'm curious, do you mind letting me know how you're using Zope and DCO2? I like to have a notion of how people are using the software.
