[railroad-dev] unable to get test form to work

Hi Kit,

Actually only the client is on windows. The server is running
on a linux box along with an instance of postgres.

I'm using railroad because I need some way to allow upload and download
of large ( > 2Gig ) files.
We are currently using an issue tracking system ( sourcefore ee ) which
does allow attaching
files. However, before uploading or downloading a file, it reads it
entirely into memory.

I was hoping to use plone in conjunction with railroad to allow large
files to be uploaded and downloaded
in a secure ( and possibly auditable ) manner.

I was not able to identify which specific version of plone has been
verified to work with railroad.
I googled it, but no luck :^(

>From you comments, it seems like railroad may not be the best solution.

Would you be able to suggest a more suitable one ?

Thanks,
Lysander

Hi,
The error 'Name or service not known' makes me suspect there's an
incompatibility with a newer version of Plone. But what specifically, I
don't know.

I'm sure you've seen that PloneRailroad was built some time ago. The
customer had a very load intensive use case (terabytes of video) and as
far as I know they haven't upgraded their Plone.

Why do you need Railroad? I notice you're running on windows, which
means you don't have the database for metadata in the mix. That's the
aspect that makes RR interesting as opposed to other options; when the
metadata is stored on the server, the repository can be accessed and
managed from disparate systems.

Kit
