Re: large file endings in ZMS Image

Hi Niels,
i packed the mediadb on windows. No loss of data. have a look at _mediadb.manage_packMediaDb(). 

  filenames = mediadb.valid_filenames()
  for filename in os.listdir(path):
    if filename not in filenames:
      filepath = path + os.sep + filename
      if os.path.isfile(filepath):
        os.remove(filepath)

dump output of methods in first two lines to eventlog or compare lists while debugging with pdb. ntfs and linux filesystem ext3 are both case-sensitive by default.


Please add more code samples (details of ZMSImage instance and generated HTML code) for the question regarding the image scaling.
