Anybody noticed that the hold-transfer-slip.pl file doesn't exist but is refered by returns.tmpl? |
| 12:26 |
|
gmcharlt |
ebegin: not sure what you mean - there's ./circ/hold-transfer-slip.pl |
| 12:27 |
|
eiro |
chris, gmcharlt: thx for replies |
| 12:29 |
|
ebegin |
gmcharlt, hmmm, let me downle check... It doesn't seem to be there in 3.00.00 nor 3.00.01... |
| 12:30 |
|
ebegin |
Is is possible that this file is not packaged in the tarballs? |
| 12:31 |
|
gmcharlt |
ebegin: you're right, it's not in the 3.0.2 tarball, even though it is in the 3.0.x branch (and master) in the git repository |

omg |

|
gmcharlt |
hdl_laptop: bizarre, isn't it |
| 12:35 |
|
gmcharlt |
at any rate, another thing to fix for 3.0.3 |
| 12:35 |
|
hdl_laptop |
not only bizarre |
| 12:35 |
|
gmcharlt |
but I'm curious how the heck it happened |
| 12:44 |

Hi |
| 12:46 |
|
nahuel |
Yes I did |
| 12:46 |
|
nahuel |
well, I didn't make any change in circulation module |
| 12:46 |
|
nahuel |
if you see my patch |
| 12:46 |
|
nahuel |
I just add a condition of syspref |
| 12:46 |
|
nahuel |
and add a "confirm" |
| 12:47 |
|
nahuel |
I think this bug was already present |
| 12:47 |
|
ebegin |
Is koha.org dead? |
| 12:47 |
|
nahuel |
I use the value from $item->{notforloan} |
| 12:47 |
|
nahuel |
ebegin, no |
| 12:47 |
|
ebegin |
ok... just longer that usual to load i guess. |
| 12:49 |
|
gmcharlt |
nahuel: yes, I know what the patch does |
| 12:50 |
|
gmcharlt |
what I want to know is whether for the original request |
| 12:50 |
|
gmcharlt |
there was a reaon to only consider the item's notforloan flag |
| 12:50 |
|
nahuel |
ah no |
| 12:50 |
|
gmcharlt |
and not the notforloan flag from the item's item type |
| 12:50 |
|
nahuel |
there is no reason amha |
| 12:50 |
|
nahuel |
just I didn't want to change the circ module comportment |
| 12:51 |
|
gmcharlt |
ok, then I'll do a patch so that both cases can be overriden by the same syspref |
| 12:51 |
|
nahuel |
I think "GetItem()" function should replace notforloan flag if itemtype is defined as "notforloan" |
| 12:52 |
|
gmcharlt |
nahuel: unfortunately, it's not quite that simple yet, as the item-level notforloan is currently also used for an item's on order status |
| 12:52 |
|
gmcharlt |
though the on-order status really ought to be moved to a new item column |
| 12:52 |
|
nahuel |
hmmm ok |
| 12:53 |
|
nahuel |
complicated |

gmcharlt, hdl_laptop, I confirm that the hold-transfer-slip.tmpl are not part of the tarball either |
| 13:00 |
|
hdl_laptop |
ebegin: will fix it |
| 13:01 |
|
|Lupin| |
please, is it possible to remove all the biblio records from koha ? is it enough to just empty the biblio, biblioitem and item tables ? |
| 13:01 |
|
gmcharlt |
|Lupin|: that should be sufficient |
| 13:02 |
|
|Lupin| |
gmcharlt: okay, thanks a lot |
| 13:04 |
|
ebegin |
hld, is there a way to get the fr-FR version of hold-transfer-slip.tmpl somewhere? |
| 13:09 |
|
|Lupin| |
Just out of curiosity: how are templates transformed into HTML pages ? Are they given to a koha script that does this ? |
| 13:10 |
|
gmcharlt |
|Lupin|: each CGI script uses a HTML::Template::Pro object that loads the applicable template |
| 13:10 |
|
gmcharlt |
and also passes the actual data to the $template object |
| 13:10 |
|
gmcharlt |
once the script has finished its processing |
| 13:11 |
|
gmcharlt |
the HTML is generated by H::T::Pro parsing the template and plugging in the data supplied by the script |
| 13:11 |
|
|Lupin| |
wow |
| 13:12 |
|
|Lupin| |
thanks a lot for the clarification gmcharlt |
| 13:13 |
|
|Lupin| |
I just did a bulkmarcimport of 1 marc record in an empty koha. This returned a few warnings, the log is 700 bytes. May I paste it here ? |
| 13:14 |
|
gmcharlt |
|Lupin|: pastebin is preferable, but if the log is short, go ahead and post it here |
| 13:14 |
|
|Lupin| |
thanks |
| 13:14 |
|
|Lupin| |
easier for me than pastebin |

hdl_laptop, is there a way to get the fr-FR version of hold-transfer-slip.tmpl somewhere? |
| 13:17 |
|
gmcharlt |
|Lupin|: that's in the NoZebra indexing code - if the records appear to be properly indexed, the warnings are probably benign, if annoying |
| 13:18 |
|
|Lupin| |
gmcharlt: okay, so there is nothing special to do about them ? |
| 13:18 |
|
gmcharlt |
|Lupin|: as long as the records are loaded and index OK, no |
| 13:19 |
|
|Lupin| |
gmcharlt: okay, good to know, thanks |

ebegin: file sent |
| 13:42 |
|
ebegin |
hdl_laptop, file received :) thanks. |
| 13:42 |
|
ebegin |
Did you have to generate it or they are available somewhere? |
| 13:44 |
|
hdl_laptop |
i had generated it. |
| 13:46 |
|
|Lupin| |
could someone please explain me what biblio, biblioitem and item are ? (or give me a pointer to something I could read) ? |
| 14:41 |
|
|Lupin| |
hmm |
| 14:42 |
|
|Lupin| |
when doing a search in the OPAC I get this: |
| 14:42 |
|
|Lupin| |
Can't call method "as_usmarc" on an undefined value at /usr/local/stow/koha-3.00.01-stable/lib/C4/Search.pm line 2119. |
| 14:45 |
|
|Lupin| |
and it seems that the two records previously imported are not there (not a zebraproblem since koha does not use it). |
| 14:45 |
|
atz |
yeah, whatever value is in marcxml is invalid or missing |
| 14:45 |
|
atz |
so when koha tries to parse it into an object, it fails |
| 14:46 |
|
atz |
then when a call is made on the object, you get the error |
| 14:46 |
|
|Lupin| |
atz: okay, but what should I do so that my records get imported by bulkmarcimport ? |
| 14:46 |
|
atz |
um, give it valid MARC records |
| 14:47 |
|
atz |
MARC::Lint is good a picking up problems |
| 14:47 |
|
|Lupin| |
atz: well I thought they were valid, they are coming from the national library here in France |
| 14:47 |
|
atz |
frequently encoding is a problem |
| 14:47 |
|
atz |
where the record advertises itself as being in one encoding but really is in another |
| 14:48 |
|
|Lupin| |
atz: actually I did not use it because as far as I understood it could understand onl MARC 21, whereas here we use UNIMARC |
| 14:48 |
|
|Lupin| |
perhaps I'm wrong here ? |
| 14:48 |
|
atz |
i'll check |
| 14:48 |
|
|Lupin| |
atz: thanks ! |
| 14:51 |
|
atz |
|Lupin|: not sure... http://search.cpan.org/~eijabb[…]/lib/MARC/Lint.pm |
| 14:51 |
|
atz |
the examples all use USMARC |
| 14:51 |
|
atz |
but it doesn't say it is required |
| 14:51 |
|
|Lupin| |
k |
| 14:52 |
|
|Lupin| |
I tried passing one file to yaz-marcdump and it seems okay |
| 14:52 |
|
gmcharlt |
nearly all of the problems that MARC::Lint will pick up will be specific to MARC21, not UNIMARC |
| 14:53 |
|
|Lupin| |
gmcharlt: do you mean that MARC::Lint is useless in the case of UNIMARC ? |
| 14:54 |
|
gmcharlt |
|Lupin|: except for very basic structural problems, yes |
| 14:56 |
|
|Lupin| |
gmcharlt: I read the MARC record and it seems very good, is far as I can say at least, so I don't know what I could do... the only problems reported at import are the warnings I showed here previously |
| 14:56 |
|
|Lupin| |
hmm actually biblio has 5 items so searching in the OPAC should find something... |
| 15:01 |
|
|Lupin| |
actually when I'm doing a quick search, although there is a word in the search box, koha says that no research criterion has been provided |
| 15:16 |
|
atz |
|Lupin|: make sure the search term doesn't have a colon in it |

Beginner in need of help with OPAC for high school instance of Koha. |
| 16:12 |
|
pianohacker |
CGI290: What's up? |
| 16:12 |
|
CGI290 |
Can anyone help me? Our catalog imported fine into Koha but the OPAC returns no results for any search on the front end. |
| 16:12 |
|
pianohacker |
Zebra is probably not set up |
| 16:12 |
|
CGI290 |
I don't have any experience with the Zebra db. |
| 16:12 |
|
atz |
you have just asked the most frequently asked question. welcome! |
| 16:13 |
|
pianohacker |
We need to link that in the topic |
| 16:13 |
|
CGI290 |
Sorry. Is there an FAQ or community doc that has help with that. |
| 16:13 |
|
pianohacker |
Let me see if I can find some docs, not a problem :) |
| 16:13 |
|
CGI290 |
I've googled but kind of hit the same results all the time. |
| 16:14 |
|
atz |
yeah, a lot of threads where people ask something similar. the job is ./misc/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -a -z |
| 16:14 |
|
atz |
(if you are using zebra) |
| 16:15 |
|
CGI290 |
Ok. I did follow the basic setup for the debian postcard install (recommended install procedures that is) that came with the Koha distro readme. |
| 16:15 |
|
atz |
CGI290: you probably want to look at the example crontab |
| 16:15 |
|
atz |
and schedule the indexing to recur automatically |
| 16:15 |
|
atz |
the main thing to remember is that when you search you don't search "the database", you search the index |
| 16:16 |
|
CGI290 |
Ok. |
| 16:16 |
|
CGI290 |
That makes sense. |
| 16:16 |
|
atz |
check out misc/cronjobs/crontab.example |
| 16:16 |
|
atz |
it has an example for rebuild_zebra |
| 16:17 |
|
pianohacker |
CGI290: Do you have Zebra installed and running? (Just wanted to be sure) |
| 16:17 |
|
CGI290 |
Ok. Will do. I will start there with these instructions. I iwll check back in with results. |
| 16:18 |
|
pianohacker |
CGI290: Cool, good luck |
| 16:18 |
|
CGI290 |
To the best of my knowledge, I did install zebra and it should be running. School ended, and I'm onto this project once again so it's been about 2 months since I've had a look at this server. |
| 16:18 |
|
atz |
ah, fun... |
| 16:18 |
|
CGI290 |
Thanks! My librarian will be so happy if I can get this going and then I can move onto project number 4 for the summer! |
| 16:18 |

| 17:14 |
|
CGI290 |
Ok, atz, I've run the rebuild and I know zebra is running. The rebuild did not return any errors. I try to search both the backend and OPAC and still get no results. Something's definitely not pointing at the right db, I'd think. |
| 17:14 |
|
atz |
do you have multiple koha's on the system/? |
| 17:15 |
|
CGI290 |
no. Just the one instance. |
| 17:15 |
|
atz |
hrm... then it must be connected to the DB OK or it would crash immediately |
| 17:15 |
|
atz |
the OPAC would crash I mean |
| 17:18 |
|
CGI290 |
Is it possible that the DB is not imported correctly? The librarian said that she got it staged and imported correctly. Once the MARC Records are imported, is there another step? |
| 17:18 |
|
danny |
CGI290, any errors in the opac error log? |
| 17:18 |
|
atz |
CGI290: frequently people are confused about the steps |
| 17:18 |
|
atz |
importing is one thing, staging into the catalog is another |
| 17:21 |
|
CGI290 |
In the Manage Staged MARC Records it shows the records as imported. |
| 17:21 |
|
CGI290 |
This is where I'm starting from in regard to getting Koha to return search results. have i put the cart before the horst here? |
| 17:21 |
|
atz |
# of bibs and items? |
| 17:21 |
|
atz |
no, that's fine |
| 17:21 |
|
CGI290 |
10844 |
| 17:22 |
|
atz |
CGI290: and if you view the list of things imported, and click on a title, the detail page displays OK? |
| 17:23 |
|
atz |
that would confirm that the MARC record can be parsed by koha |
| 17:23 |
|
atz |
(it's the link on the bib number on the rightmost column) |
| 17:25 |
|
CGI290 |
Ok. In reviewing the koha-opac-error_log I'm finding that the db host is unknown |
| 17:27 |
|
CGI290 |
yes, I'm able to review the record and it's details (book name, author, associated bar code) |
| 17:28 |
|
CGI290 |
Am I correct to assume that I've configured the db host incorrectly? |
| 17:36 |
|
danny |
CGI290, what I have found the most when I am setting up Koha is that it is problems with the zebra daemon not running |
| 17:36 |
|
danny |
try running this command "zebrasrv -f /etc/koha/koha-conf.xml" |
| 17:36 |
|
danny |
make sure that points to your koha-conf.xml file |
| 17:37 |
|
danny |
and see if you can search then |
| 17:37 |
|
pianohacker |
and if it is running, you can kill the existing instance and run it that way, which will give you some semi-helpful debugging output |
| 17:44 |
|
CGI290 |
Do I need to stop Zebra first? I got an error that Zebra was already running. |
| 17:45 |
|
danny |
yes, you would need to stop it first |
| 17:51 |
|
CGI290 |
Ok. trying that.... |
| 17:53 |
|
CGI290 |
Right now it's hanging on 'Starting server zebrasrv pid=31904' |

| 19:11 |
|
CGI290 |
Right. I know the password's are correct |
| 19:11 |
|
pianohacker |
opac-search.pl is trying to connect to a nonexistent database (probably a default value along the lines of host:user:password:database) |
| 19:11 |
|
hdl_laptop |
CGI290 : UNIMARC ? |
| 19:12 |
|
hdl_laptop |
CGI290: MARC21 ? |
| 19:12 |
|
CGI290 |
MARC21 |
| 19:12 |
|
hdl_laptop |
Which version ? |
| 19:12 |
|
pianohacker |
So just remove the contents of the kohaspsuggest system preference, and things _should_ work |
| 19:12 |
|
chris |
yeah what pianohacker said :) |
| 19:12 |

Also, is anything showing up on the console where you're running zebra when you perform a search? |
| 19:13 |
|
CGI290 |
no error messages other than it can't return a result. Where do I find the kohaspsuggest system pref? |
| 19:14 |
|
pianohacker |
Under the OPAC tab in Administration -> Global System Preferences |
| 19:14 |
|
hdl_laptop |
admin system preference |
| 19:14 |
|
CGI290 |
found it... |
| 19:17 |
|
CGI290 |
No results match your search for “au,wrdl: bauermc-itype:BK� in Rockhurst High School Library Catalog |
| 19:17 |
|
CGI290 |
searched on author name "bauer" |
| 19:18 |
|
pianohacker |
Try just searching for "au,wrdl: bauer" |
| 19:19 |
|
chris |
and you have run rebuild_zebra.pl eh? |
| 19:19 |
|
CGI290 |
Should I try it again? |
| 19:20 |
|
pianohacker |
Sure, but without the mc-itype:BK at the end |
| 19:21 |
|
wizzyrea |
rebuild_zebra.pl was what I was thinking of |
| 19:25 |
|
CGI290 |
Ok. I'm running rebuild_zebra.pl again. This time I thnk it's actually doing something as it hasn't completed in less than one second. |
| 19:26 |
|
chris |
you can run it with -v |
| 19:26 |
|
chris |
and it will tell you what it is doing |
| 19:29 |

gmcharlt: pls comment whether you think GetItemIssue in Circulation.pm would be a problem if fixed to do what the POD says |
| 19:39 |
|
atz |
and return undef instead of a weird partial hashref when itemnumber isn't in issues |
| 19:39 |
|
CGI290 |
re-ran it with -v and it's exporting biblio now...... |
| 19:40 |

That was it. thanks so much! Rockhurst High School and the library and IT dept thank you! |
| 19:45 |

CGI290 |
yes success! |
| 19:45 |

Rockhurst in Kansas CIty? no way! |
| 19:46 |

CGI290 |
thanks. i'm sure I'll be back. Yes. RHS in KC. We left follett because they're expensive and we got on board with Koha this spring. Just now getting back to config to prepare for implemantation. |

pnohack: how did you know Rockhurst was a wellfunded school? It is a private Catholic high school, btw. Not sure how "well-funded" that is these days |
| 20:10 |
|
pianohacker |
Hmm. Wikipedia says endowment of $4.5 million, but not sure how that measures up |
| 20:10 |
|
chris |
joetho: yep thats mason .. you will see him in here :) |

I am working with 3.00.02 -- and it seems extremely slow due to UTF8/language support (vtwireless.com/nytprof -- profile of the main cgi script). The consumer portal takes a second to generate, and a search takes two sections (timed via wget on the server). |
| 20:25 |
|
SirStan |
Is there a way to disable UTF8/dynamic language support? |
| 20:26 |
|
pianohacker |
Ah, yes, I remember trying to optimize and running into that |
| 20:27 |
|
SirStan |
it takes like 10 seconds for a librarian to updaet a books barcode due to each page in the opac admin taking nearly 2 seconds to display. |
| 20:27 |
|
chris |
the output of that subroutine was the first thing i cached, when i was working with memcached |
| 20:27 |
|
pianohacker |
I think the main two speed problems are a. that koha has to reload everything (config file, system preferences) on each request, since it is based on CGI and b. That each request has to load so many different js. and css. files |
| 20:28 |
|
pianohacker |
Even if you have your Expire: header set right, just the number of requests will slow you down on the frontend |
| 20:28 |
|
chris |
SirStan: putting expires headers on the css and js files |
| 20:28 |
|
SirStan |
I am doing timings with wget |
| 20:28 |
|
chris |
yep .. there is a big bottleneck on the getlanguages |
| 20:28 |
|
SirStan |
not end user browser |
| 20:28 |
|
SirStan |
so no css/js |
| 20:29 |
|
chris |
SirStan: do you have any languages set in the systempreferences? |
| 20:30 |
|
SirStan |
under waht section |
| 20:30 |
|
SirStan |
I18N/L10N, language |
| 20:30 |
|
SirStan |
only en is set |
| 20:31 |
|
chris |
_build_langauges_arrayref |
| 20:32 |
|
SirStan |
i dont hseem to ahev that |
| 20:32 |
|
chris |
is what used to be the bottleneck |
| 20:33 |
|
SirStan |
with 5 concurrent users, each hit takes 5 seconds. |
| 20:34 |
|
chris |
yep |
| 20:35 |
|
chris |
there is no easy fix |
| 20:37 |
|
pianohacker |
chris: Actually, I've been meaning to ask; you mentioned circular dependencies as a barrier to FCGI and similar models, do you know a simple way to find what these circular dependencies are? (especially given a data file like http://pastebin.ca/1462625) |
| 20:38 |
|
chris |
not so much fastcgi |
| 20:38 |
|
chris |
but mod_perl2 |
| 20:39 |
|
chris |
if you have an circular references, the garbage collector cant clean up properly |
| 20:39 |
|
chris |
thus you get memory leaks |
| 20:39 |
|
chris |
in a cgi, its ok, perl ends |
| 20:40 |
|
chris |
in mod_perl, it just grows |
| 20:40 |
|
chris |
there are modules to find circular references, but no simple easy one hit |
| 20:40 |
|
chris |
basically you need to run it as mod_perl, with something like Apache::SizeLimit |
| 20:41 |
|
chris |
watch logs, find leaks, kill them, rinse and repeat |
| 20:41 |
|
SirStan |
are there any thoughts on a koha daemon? |
| 20:41 |
|
chris |
(the size limit is so it doesnt go OOM when you arent watching :) |
| 20:42 |
|
SirStan |
or for most people do they just get a quad xeon machine to run koha reasonably fast |
| 20:42 |
|
chris |
i planned to write one for circ in 2005 |
| 20:42 |
|
chris |
SirStan: the biggest/easiest win is to make Koha mod_perl2 sage |
| 20:42 |
|
chris |
safe too :) |
| 20:43 |
|
gmcharlt |
chris: well, PerlRun safe anyway |
| 20:43 |
|
SirStan |
./make with-no-foreign-lang-support |
| 20:43 |
|
gmcharlt |
chris: ApacheRegistry safe may be a big win, but not an easy one |
| 20:43 |
|
chris |
for some definition of foreign :) |
| 20:43 |
|
chris |
english is foreign for the majority of the world |
| 20:44 |
|
chris |
gmcharlt: true, easier than a daemon i think tho :) |
| 20:44 |
|
SirStan |
excuse my ignorance -- does fast_cgi spawn instanecs of a perl script, let them load, and ahve them wait for input |
| 20:45 |
|
SirStan |
eh.. that wouldnt make sense would it |
| 20:45 |
|
chris |
SirStan :) |
| 20:45 |
|
SirStan |
:) |
| 20:46 |
|
chris |
yeah im not sure how it works, basically like pianohacker said, we take a big hit reconnecting to the db, rereading config (thats the xml::simple calls) |
| 20:46 |
|
chris |
for every page |
| 20:46 |
|
SirStan |
it seems as though .3 seconds of my execution time is related to UTF8 and language loading |
| 20:46 |
|
SirStan |
33% |
| 20:47 |
|
pianohacker |
If we want to prioritize, which would be more effective; Perlrun/FCGI/etc support or memcached support? |
| 20:47 |
|
chris |
id go Perlrun first |
| 20:47 |
|
SirStan |
pianohacker: memcache wouldnt helpmuch would it? |
| 20:47 |
|
gmcharlt |
SirStan: there are some hotspots where it would |
| 20:47 |
|
SirStan |
There is limited session data that gets carried around. |
| 20:47 |
|
gmcharlt |
help significantly |
| 20:47 |
|
SirStan |
gmcharlt: oh? |
| 20:48 |
|
pianohacker |
SirStan: Notably, if I understand correctly, it would fix your UTF8 problem |
| 20:48 |
|
gmcharlt |
it's not the session, it's some things like MARC framework data that amount to expensive to extrzct from DB config stuff |
| 20:48 |
|
chris |
SirStan: the config is reread and parsed from xml |
| 20:48 |
|
SirStan |
Someone liked java when they did that |
| 20:49 |
|
richard |
hi |
| 20:50 |
|
chris |
pianohacker: the reason i say Perlrun is that would make our code better anyway, and it also be much easier to spot caching hotspots |
| 20:50 |
|
SirStan |
spent 24.1ms making 480 calls to DBI::st::fetchrow_hashref, avg 50µs/call |
| 20:50 |
|
SirStan |
dear unicode support. |
| 20:50 |
|
SirStan |
make less database calls. |
| 20:50 |
|
chris |
its not the unicode support doing |
| 20:50 |
|
chris |
that |
| 20:51 |
|
SirStan |
that table has 131 entries. |
| 20:51 |
|
SirStan |
why is it called 400 times |
| 20:52 |
|
chris |
yes caching on C4::Languages is a win on almost every page |
| 20:52 |
|
chris |
since that data doesnt change much at all |
| 20:55 |
|
chris |
hmm where are we still using Date::Manip? |
| 20:55 |
|
chris |
getting rid of that cant hurt either |
| 20:55 |
|
SirStan |
keep in mind this isnt dev, its the latest release code. |
| 20:55 |
|
chris |
yep |
| 20:56 |
|
chris |
If you look in CPAN, you'll find that there are a number of Date and Time packages. Is Date::Manip the one you should be using? In my opinion, the answer is no most of the time. This sounds odd coming from the author of the software, but read on. |
| 20:56 |
|
chris |
Date::Manip is written entirely in Perl. It's the most powerful of the date modules. It's also the biggest and slowest. |
| 20:56 |
|
SirStan |
mhm |
| 20:56 |
|
SirStan |
i thought it would break everything |
| 20:56 |
|
chris |
so short answer is, there is lots of places to optimise |
| 20:57 |
|
chris |
SirStan: speed it up any? |
| 20:57 |
|
SirStan |
nope. |
| 20:57 |
|
chris |
yeah its still making the calls |
| 20:57 |
|
chris |
i bet |
| 20:57 |
|
SirStan |
im sure |
| 20:57 |
|
chris |
just getting no results |
| 20:57 |
|
SirStan |
now i need to restore that table <g> |
| 20:58 |
|
chris |
which is why not making the calls is a better idea, fetching that whole table in one hit, then sticking it in a hash or something, and use that rather than keep querying it |
| 20:58 |
|
chris |
maybe ill have a go at that today |
| 20:58 |
|
SirStan |
chris: can you easily export your language_descriptions table for me? |
| 20:58 |
|
chris |
i can do one better |
| 21:00 |
|
chris |
do you still have your tarball? |
| 21:00 |
|
SirStan |
yup |
| 21:00 |
|
SirStan |
i also have a backup of the db |
| 21:00 |
|
chris |
if you look in installer/data/mysql/en/mandatory |
| 21:00 |
|
chris |
subtag_registry.sql |
| 21:00 |
|
SirStan |
lovely. |
| 21:01 |
|
SirStan |
imported -- thanks,. |
| 21:01 |
|
chris |
np |
| 21:02 |
|
chris |
i cant promise i will get anything done today (have a 17 old baby and 2.5 year toddler to deal with too) but ill try to get a patch done to speed up C4::Languages |
| 21:05 |
|
wizzyrea |
ok, I have kind of a weird and funny (uh oh) issue |
| 21:08 |
|
wizzyrea |
LOL |
| 21:08 |
|
wizzyrea |
it's not that bad |
| 21:09 |
|
SirStan |
You rock Chris. |
| 21:09 |
|
wizzyrea |
so I"m looking at Last Seen in all of it's incarnations |
| 21:09 |
|
wizzyrea |
its* |
| 21:10 |
|
wizzyrea |
the moredetail.pl and bookcount.pl last seen values are different, depending on what happened with the item |
| 21:10 |
|
wizzyrea |
this seems strange |
| 21:10 |
|
wizzyrea |
moredetail.pl seems to show the last issue date |
| 21:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
bookcount.pl seems to show the last status change |
| 21:11 |
|
SirStan |
chris: performance q #2 - is it normal for a marc import to run at 2 records/second w/o zebra? |
| 21:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
(as an aside, moredetail.pl doesn't seem to be accurate, but that's separate I think) |
| 21:12 |
|
pianohacker |
SirStan: Maybe; have you tried misc/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl? Useful for your first major import |
| 21:12 |
|
SirStan |
pianohacker: no .. i used the gui |
| 21:12 |
|
chris |
ahh gmcharlt might know the answer for that better than me |
| 21:13 |
|
pianohacker |
That should be doable, though if you can make it not in the background, it would be easier |
| 21:13 |
|
chris |
SirStan: are you using nozebra? I would strongly recommend using zebra if speed is a concern |
| 21:14 |
|
SirStan |
chris: ill take speed where I can get it :). it just seemed odd taht records were only importing at 2/sec. |
| 21:15 |
|
SirStan |
anyways.. if you can make languages not horribly slow; id love you still. |
| 22:02 |
|
joetho |
liz- that would explain some of the weird results I was getting with a report last month. We worked and workd on it and I will have to dig up the solution |
| 22:11 |
|
chris |
SirStan|AFK: you around? |
| 22:11 |
|
chris |
i have a dodgy hack, to speed things up while i fix things properly |
| 22:11 |
|
chris |
line 267, in C4/Languages.pm |
| 22:12 |
|
chris |
just put a |
| 22:12 |
|
chris |
return; |
| 22:12 |
|
chris |
there |
| 22:13 |
|
chris |
id be interested to see if you get the same kind speed increase i get (halved execution time) |
| 22:13 |
|
gmcharlt |
chris: ya'know, this may be another case where Memoize can give a quick improvement |
| 22:13 |
|
chris |
(it disables you being able to choose other languages for the opac/intranet .. but sounds like you dont need that anyway) |
| 22:13 |
|
chris |
gmcharlt: hmmm yeah i think you are right |
| 22:14 |
|
gmcharlt |
most of the public functions in C4::Languages are side-effect free (or at least, enough for memoize's purposes) |
| 22:15 |
|
chris |
ill give that a crack, be good learning experience |
| 22:32 |

Hello, I've successfully installed Apache, MySQL, Perl and Koha. But when I try to access Koha (we're supposed to type 'intranet' or 'opac' into the url of our browser to access), I get an Apache Internal Server Error. Here's are the last few lines of the opac-error log. |

thats a decent win :) |
| 22:49 |
|
atz |
nice... almost half |
| 22:50 |
|
chris |
so ill do it a bit nicer |
| 22:50 |
|
chris |
not hardcoding in /tmp etc :) |
| 22:50 |
|
chris |
and i think probably should have an expires in there somewhere too |

Hi pianohacker. I've installed Apache, MySQL, Perl and Koha and when I type in "intranet" or "opac" I get a internal server error, but before I get that I see the welcome to koha for a split second. Any ideas from the error log what went wrong? |
| 22:51 |
|
pianohacker |
Try installing the Date::Calc module, using CPAN: |
| 22:51 |
|
pianohacker |
$ sudo cpan install Date::Calc |
| 22:51 |
|
pianohacker |
What distro are you on? There might be a package |
| 22:52 |
|
pianohacker |
Oh, never mind, sorry |
| 22:52 |
|
CGI573 |
Sorry, I'm not very tech savy. where would I go to install the "date...." you mention? is there a url? |
| 22:52 |
|
pianohacker |
Let me see how you would do that for windows |
| 22:53 |
|
CGI573 |
much appreciated, thanks :) |
| 22:54 |
|
chris |
do we have a tmp dir as a as a syspref or config variable or anything? |
| 22:56 |
|
pianohacker |
CGI573: How did you install Perl? |
| 22:59 |
|
CGI573 |
um, I got it from www.activestate.com/products/activeperl/ (fuzzy because I did this a while back), but I did change the path to c:\usr\ like the instructions say to. |
| 23:01 |
|
pianohacker |
CGI573: So you started here? http://www.koha.rwjr.com/ |
| 23:01 |
|
pianohacker |
(Just trying to figure out where to point you) |
| 23:02 |
|
CGI573 |
yep, that's where I went to get my info. |
| 23:02 |
|
pianohacker |
Okay. |
| 23:02 |
|
pianohacker |
So if you start a Command Prompt, then run cd \usr\ |
| 23:02 |
|
pianohacker |
Then run dir |
| 23:02 |
|
pianohacker |
Is there a bin directory in there? |
| 23:07 |
|
CGI573 |
Sorry, I went to the "start" menu on windows, then to "run" then typed in "cmd" then typed in "cd\usr\" and hit enter I get an "system cannot find the path specified" ... |
| 23:07 |
|
pianohacker |
Hmm. That's odd. |
| 23:08 |
|
pianohacker |
Try running cd .. , then cd .. again, then cd user |
| 23:08 |
|
pianohacker |
cd usr, rather |
| 23:08 |
|
pianohacker |
Those two cd .. command should get up to C:\ |
| 23:10 |
|
CGI573 |
I get the same error. |
| 23:10 |
|
pianohacker |
Is your prompt currently C:\> |
| 23:12 |
|
CGI573 |
no it's J:| |
| 23:12 |
|
pianohacker |
Ahh. Run C: (just type it in to change drives, gotta love DOS) |
| 23:12 |
|
pianohacker |
Then run cd \usr\ |
| 23:12 |
|
pianohacker |
then dir |
| 23:14 |
|
CGI573 |
Oh okay :) This time I get on the third line, "....<DIR> bin...." so I think this is the bin directory you are talking about? |
| 23:15 |
|
pianohacker |
Yup |
| 23:15 |
|
pianohacker |
Try cd bin |
| 23:15 |
|
pianohacker |
Then cpan |
| 23:16 |
|
CGI573 |
Now I have "cpan shell -- CPAN exploration and modules installation (v1.7602) ReadLine support enabled" |
| 23:16 |
|
pianohacker |
Very nice. Try running install Date::Calc |
| 23:17 |
|
pianohacker |
Actually, did you install the "Activeperl 5.8.x modules for Koha" from http://www.koha.rwjr.com/ ? |
| 23:18 |
|
CGI573 |
I think I did v5.8.8.817 |
| 23:18 |
|
pianohacker |
Okay then |
| 23:20 |
|
CGI573 |
I have a prompt now. It says "Bit::Vector Shall I follow them and prepend them to the queue of modules we are processing right now? [yes]" What am I installing by the way? |
| 23:20 |
|
pianohacker |
You want to answer yes |
| 23:20 |
|
pianohacker |
It's code used by Koha to deal with dates |
| 23:22 |
|
CGI573 |
Now I get "Running make install...make had returned bad status, install seems impossible" cpan> |
| 23:23 |
|
pianohacker |
Are there any errors that pop up after "install Date::Calc"? |
| 23:29 |
|
CGI573 |
immediately after the install command, there are a few lines like |
| 23:30 |
|
CGI573 |
"storable loaded ok"...useragent loaded ok...then later it says there's a new cpan.pm version avial.. |
| 23:30 |
|
pianohacker |
ok, all normal |
| 23:32 |
|
CGI573 |
I just went to the browser and typed opac and intranet and still get the error message :( |
| 23:34 |
|
pianohacker |
Try running force install Date::Calc |
| 23:34 |
|
pianohacker |
Not strictly correct, but worth a shot |
| 23:35 |
|
CGI573 |
say yes to the bit::vector thing again? |
| 23:35 |
|
pianohacker |
Yup |
| 23:36 |
|
mason |
heh |
| 23:36 |
|
mason |
heya jesse |
| 23:36 |
|
pianohacker |
Hi, mason :) |
| 23:36 |
|
pianohacker |
You wouldn't happen to know anything about the 2.2.9 windows installer, would you? |
| 23:36 |
|
SirStan|AFK |
do devs run debian; ubuntu; or other? |
| 23:36 |
|
pianohacker |
I think debian is the most common |
| 23:37 |
|
CGI573 |
Same deal w/ the "make" issue |
| 23:37 |
|
pianohacker |
Koha is the best supported on that distro, but you can use it on others; the servers at the library I work at use Arch |
| 23:37 |
|
mason |
i know more than i wanna know about koha on windows, which isnt much ;) |
| 23:38 |
|
pianohacker |
CGI573: Are you sure you installed the extra modules, and not just ActiveState Perl? I'm beginning to think I know what's wrong, and it could be tough to fix through this route |
| 23:38 |
|
brendan |
pianohacker++ |
| 23:39 |
|
CGI573 |
I can uninstall Perl and install clean if that's what I should do. Where do I go to get these "extra modules" that you speak of? |
| 23:40 |
|
pianohacker |
http://www.koha.rwjr.com/ |
| 23:40 |
|
pianohacker |
Third link on the right of the page |
| 23:40 |
|
pianohacker |
*right part, rather |
| 23:42 |
|
pianohacker |
Okay, this scares me: http://hackaday.com/2009/06/17[…]enial-of-service/ |
| 23:42 |
|
CGI573 |
OH crap....I don't think I installed this because I thought I did a "full" install of Koha. |
| 23:43 |
|
SirStan|AFK |
does koha actually run on windows now? |
| 23:43 |
|
pianohacker |
SirStan|AFK: Well, 2.2.9 does |
| 23:43 |
|
sirStan |
why even bother running an ancient ver |
| 23:43 |
|
CGI573 |
actually, I should be fine cause the koha link above it says it includes the extra modules |
| 23:44 |
|
pianohacker |
Hmm |
| 23:44 |
|
pianohacker |
Yes, you should be... |
| 23:44 |
|
sirStan |
is tehre any tangable benefit to koha on windows? |
| 23:45 |
|
pianohacker |
sirStan: You don't have to install Linux, is pretty much it |
| 23:45 |
|
sirStan |
but you need to install windows ? |
| 23:45 |
|
sirStan |
id prefer the later. |
| 23:45 |
|
pianohacker |
me too, but not every sysadmin feels the same way |
| 23:46 |
|
CGI573 |
I'm just trying to work with what I've got :) |
| 23:46 |
|
pianohacker |
Hey, I'm all for pragmatism |
| 23:48 |
|
CGI573 |
I unfortunately need to go, thanks so much for your patience and generosity Pianohacker. I think I'll have to come back some other time to finish this. Based on today's run through, is there a quick way to start off where we leave off today...in case I run into someone else. just so we don't reinvent the wheel. some techie speak that will help? |
| 23:48 |
|
pianohacker |
Hmm |
| 23:49 |
|
pianohacker |
The Date::Calc module is installed, and can't be found, or can't be installed; one of the two |
| 23:49 |
|
CGI573 |
okay, thanks again! Have a great day/evening... |
| 23:49 |
|
pianohacker |
Not a problem; good luck! |
| 23:52 |
|
pianohacker |
Wow, this has been a very busy support day |
| 23:52 |

Good night, all |

| 05:31 |
|

| 05:31 |
|

| 05:32 |
|
brendan |

| 05:32 |
|
chris |
hehe |
| 05:32 |
|
chris |
you can make up your own mind :) |
| 05:32 |
|
brendan |

| 05:32 |
|
Amit |
brendan: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graeme_Smith |
| 05:32 |
|
brendan |
thank you amit |
| 05:33 |
|
brendan |
oh man -- first comment -- he's younger than us |
| 05:33 |
|
brendan |
err... me |
| 05:33 |
|
Amit |
hee |
| 05:34 |
|
brendan |
quick question -- is he batsman ? |
| 05:34 |
|
Amit |
yes he is batsman |
| 05:34 |
|
Amit |
he is opener |
| 05:34 |
|
Amit |
chris: i m right |
| 05:34 |
|
brendan |
explain opener -- does that mean the best player ? |
| 05:35 |
|
brendan |
in baseball -- you bat your best player third |
| 05:35 |
|
Amit |
opener means to open the innings |
| 05:35 |
|
Amit |
means first player to play the first ball |
| 05:36 |
|
brendan |
ok chris -- I've read what I need to have read to agree -- I hate him too |
| 05:36 |
|
chris |
usually the number 3 and 4 batsman are the best |
| 05:36 |
|
chris |
in test cricket anyway |
| 05:36 |
|
Amit |
i agree with chris |
| 05:36 |
|
chris |
1 and 2 are there to not protect them from the new ball |
| 05:39 |
|
brendan |
ok -- that is very similar to baseball -- the best hitter is number 3 |
| 05:40 |
|
chris |
i was going to say, to not have to score tons of runs, but to stay there long enough for the ball to get a bit older |
| 05:43 |
|
brendan |
so what your saying is -- a batsman that is very good at striking the ball --- actually the best on team at striking the ball |
| 05:43 |
|
chris |
the best at not getting out |
| 05:44 |
|
brendan |
so true in basebal |
| 05:44 |
|
chris |
and 3 4 and 5 are the best at scoring runs |
| 05:44 |
|
brendan |
true in baseball |
| 05:44 |
|
brendan |
how many are in a line-up |
| 05:44 |
|
chris |
11 |
| 05:44 |
|
chris |
but you bat in pairs |
| 05:44 |
|
brendan |
wow |
| 05:44 |
|
chris |
so you only need to get 10 out |
| 05:44 |
|
brendan |
how do you not win ever game |
| 05:45 |
|
brendan |
not ever == every |
| 05:45 |
|
chris |
you are playing against time in the case of test cricket (5 days) |
| 05:45 |
|
chris |
or number of overs in odi and t20 |
| 05:46 |
|
brendan |
the biggest problem I have with time -- is that it gives everyone time to recover... |
| 05:46 |
|
chris |
in t20 your best batsman are often 1 and 2 |
| 05:46 |
|
chris |
because there are only 20 overs each side |
| 05:46 |
|
chris |
so 120 bowls |
| 05:46 |
|
brendan |
Chris - you are excellent with your job -- when you've had enough time to sleep |
| 05:47 |
|
brendan |
so 120 bowls -- |
| 05:48 |
|
brendan |
I agree -- that's much more pressure -- you are correct |
| 05:48 |
|
Amit |
brendan: i m seeing your website bywater |
| 05:49 |
|
chris |
in test cricket, you are wearing the ball down (as well as the bowler) |
| 05:49 |
|
brendan |
so a batter must face most of those bowls -- where as where I am coming from -- only three to eight bowls a game |
| 05:49 |
|
chris |
(they use the same ball for at least 90 overs (540 bowls) |
| 05:49 |
|
brendan |
I always forget that |
| 05:50 |
|
Amit |
chris: u have a lot of knowledge about cricket |
| 05:50 |
|
chris |
i have spent many a day watching cricket :) |
| 05:51 |
|
Amit |
hmm me too |
| 05:52 |
|
fredericd |
chris: For your tmp cache file, there is something equivalent for authorities... |
| 05:52 |
|
fredericd |
Take a look at C4::AuthoritiesMarc.pm, around line 661 |
| 05:52 |
|
brendan |
amit -- so bywater site is a work in progress -- thanks for taking a look.. |
| 05:52 |
|
chris |
ahh you using memoize ? |
| 05:53 |
|
Amit |
brendan: your website in joomla |
| 05:53 |
|
brendan |
nope it's mambo |
| 05:53 |
|
chris |
ahh hardcoded path there too |
| 05:53 |
|
fredericd |
chris: For memoize, yes, I'm testing. It works very very well |
| 05:54 |
|
chris |
yeah, by caching that language function i halve the execution time for opac-main.pl |
| 05:55 |
|
fredericd |
really?... I would like to test... |
| 05:56 |
|
Amit |
brendan: mambo is similar to joomla i think |
| 05:56 |
|
chris |
chrisubuntu:~/git/koha.git$ time wget http://opac.koha.workbuffer.org |

| 05:57 |
|
chris |
real 0m0.558s |
| 05:57 |
|
chris |
with it |
| 05:57 |
|
brendan |
yes amit -- i think mambo is the same as joomla -- just a little bit before |
| 05:57 |
|

brendan: have u converted marc21 to text via perl script |
| 06:52 |
|
chris |
back |
| 06:52 |
|
chris |
fredericd: let me know if it works for you |
| 06:53 |
|
chris |
what i have to add to it, is an expiry |
| 06:54 |
|
chris |
so that its not cached forever (altho that subroutine very rarely returns a different result, its only if you add a new language) |
| 06:55 |
|
chris |
the nice thing is that if it cant find the memoized data, it falls back and just runs the subroutine |
| 06:55 |
|
Amit |
chris: is there any option form MARC21 to flat text conversion directly |
| 06:55 |
|
chris |
not that i know of Amit |
| 06:56 |
|
Amit |
i m using by this |
| 06:56 |
|
Amit |
use MARC::XML; |
| 06:56 |
|
Amit |
$x = MARC::XML->new("myxmlfile.xml","xml"); |
| 06:56 |
|
Amit |
$x->output({file=>">mytextfile.txt","ascii"); |
| 06:56 |
|
Amit |
but it is not converted show conversion only xml to xml |
| 06:56 |
|
Amit |
any idea |
| 06:58 |

Is it just me, or does a MARC21 tag called 01e look a little odd? |
| 09:55 |
|
magnusenger |
It's called CODED FIELD ERROR (RLIN) |
| 09:56 |
|
magnusenger |
and can be found on lines 201 + 539 here: http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gi[…]FAULT.sql;hb=HEAD |
| 09:57 |
|
magnusenger |
It's not listed here either: http://www.loc.gov/marc/biblio[…]hic/bd01x09x.html |

|
veki |
is there any possibility to instal Koha for windows with xampp? |
| 10:06 |
|
veki |
I see that during the installation process it search for Apache on predetermined locations. Maybe it should be good to enable teh user to point location of required files |
| 10:21 |
|
nicomo |
magnusenger: around? |
| 10:28 |
|
magnusenger |
nicomo: yes |
| 11:09 |
|
gmcharlt |
magnusenger: it's not standard MARC21; it's a custom field that was once used by the RLIN bibliographic utlity |
| 11:10 |
|
magnusenger |
ok, and it's actuallu called 01e? |
| 11:11 |
|
gmcharlt |
magnusenger: yep, I think that was the actual tag |
| 11:12 |
|
gmcharlt |
although it's unlikely that you'll run across any records that use it |
| 11:16 |
