* Oak |
needs to learn how to set up hourly backups of Koha. |
| 11:19 |
|
Oak |
to a remote location: on FTP plus on local network using samba. |
| 11:19 |
|
Oak |
nothing on wiki on cron? |
| 11:20 |
|
rangi |
Oak: you are using packages eh? |
| 11:20 |
|
Oak |
yes |
| 11:20 |
|
rangi |
look in /etc/cron.daily/koha-common |
| 11:20 |
|
Oak |
okie dokie |
| 11:21 |
|
rangi |
thats what does the backups |
| 11:21 |
|
rangi |
you'll want to take the command, and write a little bash script around it, to do the ftp/samba stuff then put that in /etc/cron.d/koha-common |
| 11:24 |
|
Oak |
hmm, i don't see "koha-run-backups" command in there... by the way. |
| 11:24 |
|
rangi |
where in cron.daily? |
| 11:24 |
|
Oak |
yes |
| 11:25 |
|
Oak |
no no |
| 11:25 |
|
Oak |
yes it is there |

yep |
| 11:25 |
|
Oak |
koha-run-backups --days 2 --output /var/spool/koha |
| 11:26 |
|
Oak |
yes, crap... I was looking at all the long lines |
| 11:26 |
|
Oak |
what does the --days 2 switch means? |
| 11:28 |
|
jcamins_away |
rangi: you're up late. |
| 11:28 |
|
jcamins_away |
Oak: that's how many days worth of backups to keep in /var/spool/koha |
| 11:28 |
|
Oak |
ah cool... okay good. |
| 11:29 |
|
Oak |
i also found it in /usr/sbin/koha-run-backups |
| 11:29 |
|
Oak |
hmm |
| 11:30 |
|
rangi |
jcamins: yep i should be asleep, will be soon |
| 11:31 |
|
Oak |
will it be crazy to put the backup command in cron.hourly? |
| 11:31 |
|
jcamins |
Yes. |
| 11:31 |
|
rangi |
as it is yes |
| 11:32 |
|
rangi |
because it will just overwrite itself |
| 11:33 |
|
Oak |
:) hm. what if i do work all day (cataloging) and at 11:50pm the hard disk dies; suppose, then whole days' work will be lost. |
| 11:33 |
|
rangi |
you'd need to wrap it with a script that copied the backup somewhere, also, mysqldump works the db |
| 11:33 |
|
rangi |
yep |
| 11:33 |
|
rangi |
but if you are doing that much cataloguing, you should have the disk raided |
| 11:34 |
|
rangi |
and/or running replication |
| 11:34 |
|
Oak |
how about I modify the /usr/sbin/koha-run-backups: these lines -- tardump="$dirname/$name/$name-$date.tar.gz" |
| 11:34 |
|
rangi |
still need a script to copy it off |
| 11:34 |
|
Oak |
to add time also |
| 11:34 |
|
rangi |
or if the disk dies, your still out |
| 11:35 |
|
Oak |
yes |
| 11:35 |
|
rangi |
plus running a dump, works the db hard |
| 11:35 |
|
* jcamins |
would recommend replication. |
| 11:35 |
|
rangi |
yep |
| 11:35 |
|
jcamins |
Do the backup off the slave. |

jcamins |
We have a sealed container with something that looks very much like antifreeze sitting on my dresser. |
| 11:38 |

slef: how many submissions so far? |
| 11:38 |
|
jcamins |
We don't have a car. |
| 11:38 |
|
Oak |
can you kindly point me to some link... as i don't know what the term 'replication' means for DB backup. |
| 11:39 |
|
jcamins |
We have *never* had a car in the city. |
| 11:39 |
|
jcamins |
It's not enough antifreeze to do anything useful. |
| 11:39 |
|
* Oak |
Googles "mysql replication" |
| 11:39 |

And it's in one of the containers that I generally use for freezing things. |

wants to call it "Analyze everything! Analytic records in Koha" |

jcamins: oh I think mle said internet is confirmed. Did you see it / should I check? |
| 11:41 |

jcamins |

rangi |
ok, bedtime |
| 11:42 |

slef |
thank rangi |
| 11:42 |

That's why I was waiting to submit a proposal, so I knew whether to propose a presentation via Skype/whatever, or whether I needed someone to read the talk. |

cait: do you think the new paragraph on http://koha-community.org/koha[…]soring-kohacon12/ is OK? (Starts "We will announce sponsors...") |
| 11:52 |
|
cait |
hm |
| 11:52 |
|
cait |
i am still not sure we should put such a heavy weight on the amount |
| 11:52 |
|
slef |
cait: I think know how you feel about the levels in general - this is all a bit icky, but more money means better kohacon12 |
| 11:53 |
|
cait |
slef: I think this is a bit too much for me to feel comfortable with - small amounts can be big amounts for small companies |
| 11:53 |
|
cait |
and I don't think we should encourage a "X gave more than y" |
| 11:53 |
|
cait |
it should be confidential |
| 11:54 |
|
cait |
so mentioning whohas already sponsoered is ok for me, but the listing order ... I don't like that |
| 11:54 |
|
slef |
cait: I agree. That's why I wanted the Kind Hearts level and not just the big one. I also wanted the numbers in general clear on the call for sponsors. |
| 11:55 |
|
slef |
(I agree about the small amounts are big amounts for small companies) |
| 11:55 |
|
cait |
I don't think we have to do that |
| 11:55 |
|
cait |
give sponsors a lot |
| 11:56 |
|
slef |
I was thinking, you see, what is there to encourage sponsors to give more than the minimum level? |
| 11:56 |
|
cait |
yes, but I think it will work without so much encouragement |
| 11:56 |
|
slef |
I can encourage them to sponsor earlier (which will help) by including them in more announcements. |
| 11:56 |
|

would work for me |

I wonder if we can use the same thing that does the paid support listing. I'll ask wizzyrea |

random would work for me |
| 11:58 |
|
cait |
I am not sure how other kohacons did it |
| 11:58 |
|
slef |
meaningful names are better than "aaaa1111 koha co" |
| 11:58 |
|
slef |
no me neither... previous kohacons have been a bit more opaque about money than I like |
| 11:59 |
|
cait |
hm |
| 11:59 |
|
slef |
I agree on the confidential in general, but I'll publish a summary account of the conference and maybe hand over some money to kohacon13 |
| 11:59 |
|
slef |
(depending what comes in) |
| 11:59 |
|
cait |
I think that's ok |
| 11:59 |
|
cait |
giving others an idea about costs is not wrong |
| 12:00 |
|
slef |
that's been the hardest thing for me about organising this one |

I was going to set GBP 2500 as the target for crowd-funding if we did that |
| 12:11 |
|
slef |
as crowd-funding sites penalise you if you don't reach the target |
| 12:11 |

cait |
it's still not a lot for a multi-day conference |
| 12:12 |
|
slef |
no, indeed |
| 12:15 |
|
slef |
debconf is over GBP 12,000 but they have many rooms and pay for some people's food and hotels and so on |

what I'm speaking of here is the links to the different electronic formats |

there is also a system preference to show correctly formatted 856 as pictures in the record I think |

why not have the resource url in the item rather than the bib? |
| 14:13 |
|
* chris_n |
considers a case where two items attached to a bib reference copies of the resource at different locations... url-ly speaking |
| 14:13 |
|
cait |
why have it in the bib? |
| 14:13 |
|
cait |
you can do that |
| 14:13 |
|
cait |
have an url in the item |
| 14:13 |
|
chris_n |
ahh |
| 14:13 |

952 $u I think |
| 14:13 |
|
chris_n |
well... it must be monday |
| 14:13 |
|
chris_n |
that was staring me in the face... |
| 14:14 |
|
cait |
but much harder to make it display nicely if you want to change the default |
| 14:14 |
|
chris_n |
so 952$u is not easily added to the stylesheet? |
| 14:14 |
|
cait |
I tihnk you could |
| 14:14 |
|
cait |
but |
| 14:14 |
|
cait |
items in general are not dealt with in the xsl |
| 14:14 |
|
cait |
hm |
| 14:14 |
|
cait |
thinking yout it , not sure you can |
| 14:15 |
|
cait |
since we removed the items from the xml |
| 14:15 |
|
cait |
you probably can't |
| 14:15 |
|
cait |
not sure which xml is used |
| 14:15 |
|
cait |
the one in the database or the one from zebra |
| 14:16 |
|
chris_n |
so is there a "norm" for when to add "duplicate" bibs and when to add more items to the same bib? |
| 14:16 |
|
* chris_n |
thinks life just got harder for some reason... |
| 14:17 |
|
wizzyrea |
for what it's worth |
| 14:17 |
|
chris_n |
ie, should I have one bib for each resource location? |
| 14:17 |
|
wizzyrea |
oh, never mind. |
| 14:17 |
|
wizzyrea |
e-items |
| 14:17 |
|
wizzyrea |
not real items |
| 14:18 |
|
chris_n |
right |
| 14:18 |
|
wizzyrea |
we add new bibs whenever the medium changes. |
| 14:18 |
|
chris_n |
or are e-resources not in the set of items? |
| 14:18 |
|
chris_n |
ahh |
| 14:18 |
|
wizzyrea |
large print, mass market, etc |

|
wizzyrea |
dvd |
| 14:19 |
|
wizzyrea |
< publics |
| 14:19 |
|
chris_n |
so I should probably set off on the path of a new bib for e-resources and then one per location? |
| 14:19 |
|
wizzyrea |
well, define location? |
| 14:19 |
|
chris_n |
URL |
| 14:20 |
|
wizzyrea |
hmm |
| 14:20 |
|
chris_n |
ie... I serve a copy locally, but also want to reference it on the i-net |
| 14:20 |
|
chris_n |
sometimes public domain resources disappear |
| 14:20 |
|
cait |
you can give a description for each 856 |
| 14:20 |
|
chris_n |
we will retain some local copies to avoid future unavailability |
| 14:20 |
|
cait |
that will show |
| 14:20 |
|
cait |
so as long as all urls lead to the same resource |
| 14:21 |
|
cait |
content / presentation wise |
| 14:21 |
|

I would keep it on the same record |

hmmm, we have a lot of exit statements in our code. |

apparently, those don't work so well for mod_perl |

|
sekjal |
plack is okay with them, so long as they're exit(0), but mod_perl doesn't like them at all |
| 15:15 |

that's not true though |
| 17:01 |
|
cait |
it depends |
| 17:02 |
|
nengard |
cause i have other vendors with orders places last year |
| 17:02 |
|
cait |
are your orders closed? |
| 17:02 |

nengard |
and it's not showing them |
| 17:02 |
|
nengard |
nope |
| 17:02 |
|
cait |
that's why then probably |
| 17:02 |
|
cait |
can you check by closing one o fthose orders? |
| 17:02 |
|
nengard |
then i need to document that it only works for closed baskets? |
| 17:02 |
|
cait |
I think so - that's what i remember |
| 17:03 |
|
nengard |
okay if i close a basket it shows - but i can tell you that this is going to be a support question I get 100 times - libraries would rather see all their vendors and get a message saying no late orders for this vendor than having koha try to be smart for them |
| 17:03 |
|
nengard |
just what i think will happen |
| 17:03 |
|

for now i'll update the manual |

I think it's better this way |

sounds like the problem is around open/closed baskets. I think we need a more concrete idea of what that actually means |
| 17:04 |
|
sekjal |
from a workflow point of view |
| 17:04 |
|
cait |

|
cait |
the order has been placed |
| 17:04 |
|
cait |
witht he vendor |
| 17:04 |
|
cait |
it's the only indicator we have for that |
| 17:04 |
|
sekjal |
that's how I typically use it |
| 17:05 |
|
cait |
I think koha was less strict on tha tin the past |
| 17:05 |
|
cait |
but I think it makes sense to make it a little more strict here |
| 17:05 |
|
cait |
you might keep orders open to gather titles you want to order |
| 17:05 |
|
cait |
like when you want to reach a minimum order amount |
| 17:05 |
|
cait |
but once you are placing the order, you sould close the basket |
| 17:05 |
|
nengard |
updated the report summary in the manual for now |

|
nengard |
that too seems silly |
| 17:11 |
|
cait |
I explainedon the bug |
| 17:11 |
|
cait |
it's because you can only do 1 vendor at a time |
| 17:11 |
|
nengard |
then the checkbox shouldn't be there at all - will go read the bug |
| 17:12 |
|
cait |
it works once you select a vendor |
| 17:12 |
|
cait |
and the checkboxes work |
| 17:12 |
|
cait |
only check all / uncheck all would not work without selecting a vendor |
| 17:12 |
|
nengard |
oh |

i see |

jcamins |
nengard: did you check your frameworks re: 7933? |
| 17:14 |
|
jcamins |
Remember the "hidden" attribute only controls expanded MARC view and cataloging. |
| 17:15 |
|
nengard |
my argument there is that it should control everything then |
| 17:15 |
|
nengard |
it's confusing to the librarian |
| 17:15 |
|
jcamins |
I agree it should. |
| 17:15 |
|
jcamins |
But it doesn't. |
| 17:16 |
|
jcamins |
So the bug isn't that 090 doesn't appear on the expanded MARC view. It's that the "hidden" attribute hasn't been taken out back and shot. |
| 17:17 |
|
sekjal |
MARC definitions need to be separated from frameworks |
| 17:17 |
|
jcamins |
That would be great. |
| 17:18 |
|
sekjal |
hopefully structured in a way that would be as quick to load as possible |
| 17:18 |
|
sekjal |
marc defs could be file-based; they don't really change all that much |
| 17:19 |
|
jcamins |
Yes, removing MARC definitions from frameworks would be a huge step towards our MARC support not being painful. |
| 17:19 |
|
sekjal |
and a good step towards metadata schema independence |

The report is for Overdues that we want to mail out from the library, not use peoples' emails. It needs to show the patrons' information and just the items that are overdue all on a single page. Each page needs to have one patron only. Can anyone help me with this? |

Hmm...the current overdues report from the circulation page prints out an excel list for everyone that has overdues. But we want them all to be single page entities... Is this possible at all? We'd like to do that with all of our patrons, not just the ones that don't have emails... |

Well, I've been able to recreate the overdues report. But I don't know enough about SQL to format it so that the information of one patron fits on one single page.... |
| 18:45 |
|
cait |
i think you can't really do that with sql |
| 18:45 |
|
cait |
sql is to retrieve data - not for formatting |
| 18:46 |
|
YoungPublicLibrarian |
right, but you can format your reports can't you? I mean in my beginners SQL class they talked about creating reports with buttons and fields and things... |
| 18:46 |
|
cait |
normally you would get the data and use something else for formatting, like using a... serial letter? (not sure that's the right word) to create the mails from a spreadcheet |
| 18:46 |
|
cait |
What Koha can do is create somehting like a search form (runtime parameters) to influence the conditions for a report |

JesseM joined #koha |

Hmm...okay. So if we run the report and get all the overdues in an excel sheet, how would I then get it formatted? Would I have to go through each overdue and create a page manually? Or is there a way in KoHa to do it? You mentioned Serial Letters, but I don't know what that is...sorry. Not trying to be difficult... |

I was thinking of a feature word and perhaps writer (libreoficce openoffice too) have |

where you can create letters from a spreadsheet of data |

there are also other programs you could use I think |

Oh! That would be nice. I will look into that! Thanks! |

Also, you said that KoHa sends a letter via email to patrons with overdues. Is there a way we can see what that letter looks like? |

cait |
YoungPublicLibrarian: I only now the german word - not sure how the feature is called in English correctly - so perhaps be careful when searching for serial letters :) |

you define yourself how it looks like - it's one of the templates from tools > notices |

can anyone tell me how to use a desktop ftp client with my koha vm? I just need to know how to find the info needed to connect to my koha vm via sftp |
| 19:08 |
|
nengard |
IP, port, etc etc |
| 19:08 |
|
nengard |
and i guess make sure that my user has the right permissions |
| 19:08 |
|
nengard |
i need to update the help files for Koha 3.8 and it's too much to do this all on the vm |

wizzyrea |
yea, once you have ssh you can sftp |
| 19:10 |
|
wizzyrea |
or scp |
| 19:10 |
|
oleonard |
nengard: Do you have Koha set up on different ports in your VM? (:80 and :8080 ?) |
| 19:10 |
|
nengard |
um ? hehe |
| 19:10 |
|
oleonard |
nengard: localhost:80 (OPAC) and localhost:8080 (staff client) ? |
| 19:10 |
|
nengard |
to get to it in the browser i type http://kohavm for opac and http://kohavm:80 for staff |
| 19:11 |
|
nengard |
and i can use the scp command already |
| 19:11 |
|
nengard |
just want my hand drag and drop interface :) |

| 19:12 |
|
nengard |
sorry i was wrong |
| 19:12 |
|
nengard |
it's kohavm for the opac and http://kohavm:8080/ for the staff |
| 19:12 |
|
nengard |
so yes, i think i have the ports set up |
| 19:13 |
|
oleonard |
nengard: Is that from the browser in your VM? |
| 19:13 |
|
nengard |
no that's from the browers on my computer so i can view the vm |
| 19:13 |
|
nengard |
so i open up virtual box, start up koha (debian) and then go to firefox on the mac and type that in |

specifically http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]Overdue_materials |
| 21:47 |
|
YoungPublicLibrarian |
yep, but all it has is one report that allows you to input a number of days. But when you do it gives you anything over that specified number of days. It is the Overdues w/ Contact Info report. I need a report that allows you to input a number and have it give you overdues for that specific number of days and nothing else. |

in fact, change the '>' to '=' will probably do it. |
| 21:51 |
|
Space_Librarian |
YoungPublicLibrarian it was pretty straight forward to get a specific overdue days |
| 21:51 |
|
Space_Librarian |
what eythian said, actually. |
| 21:51 |
|
YoungPublicLibrarian |
Ah okay! I've only had one class in SQL and that was a while ago...Thanks! |
| 21:52 |
|
YoungPublicLibrarian |
ethian, in which report? The Overdues Materials report that was linked or the Overdues w/ Contact Info that I was talking about? |
| 21:52 |
|
Space_Librarian |
YoungPublicLibrarian any of them... |
| 21:55 |
|
YoungPublicLibrarian |
Okay, so in the Overdues /w Contact Info, http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]ibrary#Overdues_w.2F_Contact_Info, I would change the '>=' in the WHERE statement to '=' correct? |
| 22:06 |
|
Space_Librarian |
yep |
| 22:17 |
|
YoungPublicLibrarian |
alright! Thanks! Now, is there a way to say two specific number (ex. '7' and '21' days)? or is that asking too much :)? |
| 22:18 |
|
Space_Librarian |
if you find a date range command in one of the other reports, copy that across. |
| 22:18 |
|
rangi |
WHERE something = something AND something = somethingelse |
| 22:18 |
|
YoungPublicLibrarian |
a range would give me everything in between though wouldn't it? I want just overdues for 7 days and overdues for 21 days... |
| 22:19 |
|
rangi |
yep, the above is the exact one |
| 22:19 |
|
rangi |
sorry |
| 22:19 |

AND should be OR |
