09:34 ansius     bugging again could anyone please help to get koha-2.2.10 or help to somehow set it up with mysql5 ?
09:15 ansius     bugging again, i'm still in the same place. ok I got the cvs rel_2_2 koha, but i have no idea how to set it up, or i can use this one to fix installer so it would work with mysql5?
07:17 ansius     hi again, i'm still in the same place. ok I got the cvs rel_2_2 koha, but i have no idea how to set it up, or i can use this one to fix installer so it would work with mysql5?
01:59 thd        ping kados
00:32 atz        members/memberentry.pl still seems to be messed up in git repo.
21:34 kados      hehe
21:30 chris      so brunch is postponed
21:30 chris      heh, i have no idea why i think i can make plans with an 11 month old ... while i was in the shower he has fallen asleep on his mum, who in turn has fallen asleep
21:14 rex        cu
21:11 chris      ok, time to take the family out for some brunch, ttyl
21:10 chris      sad but true
21:09 chris      yeah
21:09 rex        I guess you have to keep doing that over and over again even if its already been demonstrated for like decades and decades
21:08 rex        yeah.
21:08 chris      annoying the government by pointing out disparities in funding .. and unequal outcomes etc :)
21:08 rex        ah.
21:06 chris      http://www.nzma.org.nz/journal/119-1231/1917/  <--- she does this kinda stuff
21:06 rex        they have a different campus than the one I'm on
21:05 chris      is her name
21:05 chris      donna cormack
21:05 chris      ill ask next time i see her, shes at some conference at the moment
21:05 chris      :-)
21:05 rex        albeit a healthy one.
21:04 rex        she may know Kalani Brady... but I think he might just be an indigenous doctor.
21:04 rex        heh -- I'll let you know.
21:03 rex        we probably have some small world connections then
21:03 chris      ive yet to visit though ... maybe ud like some Koha training? :-)
21:03 chris      my sister has been to Hawaii a bit, she works as a researcher for a school of medicine here, in the indigenous health area
21:00 rex        oof. Don't get me started. Honestly.
21:00 rex        kados: just for the record, can you give me a ballpark on what the Koha classic woudl be costwise (you can msg me privately if you don't want to put it on channel).
21:00 chris      yeah, im with you there
20:59 rex        *kanaka
20:59 rex        that is not only totally disrespectful to Maori but it is also totally clueless about kana 'oiwi people here as well.
20:58 chris      hehe
20:58 rex        don't get me started.
20:58 chris      ps, tell your football teams to stop stealing our haka :-)
20:58 rex        we had different missionaries, apparently :)
20:58 chris      Hawai'ian looks like mispelled Maori to me :-)
20:57 rex        heh -- they all look like mispelled Hawai'ian to me :D
20:57 chris      thats cos they come from Aotearoa :)
20:56 rex        heh. All these Polynesian names.
20:54 kados      which is another digital library system
20:54 kados      we're also going to be supporting Kete: http://horowhenua.kete.net.nz/
20:53 kados      indexdata.dk/keystone i think
20:53 kados      no ... it's an Index Data product
20:49 rex        kados: is LibLime's Keystone suite  a flavor of Greenstone?
20:48 rex        39.50
20:48 rex        yeah. THere's a lot of docs. Apaprently getting the Z3259 (or whatever the protocol is called) client up is a bit of a pain.
20:47 kados      someone posted to the list recently
20:47 rex        might be nice to keep my hand in.
20:47 kados      did you run across that?
20:47 kados      there is a guide somewhere for OSX install
20:47 rex        Since becoming a prof I feel a bit out of it techwise.
20:47 kados      yep
20:47 rex        yeah. And we have no money, really. Might be better to just install ourselves.
20:47 kados      but not sure we'd support it on OSX
20:46 kados      yup
20:46 rex        I guess this means if we were to go for a liblime solution it would be 'basic' eh?
20:45 rex        we have an OSX box we can install Koha on, so hosting is probably not for us.
20:44 rex        yes I think some other memebrs of the committee have been looking at that
20:44 kados      </vendorbias> :-)
20:44 kados      that's my recommendation :-)
20:44 rex        We want a proper database, populated hopefully w/MARC records we pull down
20:44 kados      rex: http://liblime.com/products/koha/koha-classic
20:43 rex        At this point I think it looks like this: we have >5K books, I'd reckon. We want a searchable catalog online.
20:43 rex        Yeah it will be nice to have a spectrum of pay/free options
20:42 kados      there are companies that will offer turnkey solutions, even hosting, for Koha
20:42 kados      http://koha.org/support/pay.html
20:42 kados      huh ... well that's an easy fix :-)
20:41 rex        you know how it is -- people only trust solutions where they're paying someone something. Otherwise they think it is either 'broken' or 'stealing their information'
20:41 kados      well, Tim Spalding's a great guy
20:41 kados      hehe
20:41 rex        yeah. people are afraid of LIbrary Thing for some reason.
20:41 kados      large_rooms++ :-)
20:40 kados      that has at least cursory understanding of the basic modules and standards in place
20:40 kados      koha is really designed for an active library
20:40 rex        I mean... the room its in is large...
20:40 kados      ie, if you're looking for a way to keep track of a couple hundred books, might be better off looking at something like librarything or something
20:40 rex        yes. Actually we should figure out how large our collection is.
20:39 kados      well, I don't know much about your needs, a lot has to do with what you're planning to use it for, how large the collection is, who will be using it, etc.
20:38 rex        I guess our main concern is that Koha is too Drupal like -- i.e. useful only if you already know how to write it from scratch ;P
20:37 kados      sure
20:37 rex        yeah. As the chair of the comittee that is looking at 'solutions' t our IT needs I can't be too partisan, but on the whole I'm sympathetic to F/OSS solutions
20:37 kados      http://git.koha.org/gitstat/
20:37 kados      http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=summary
20:37 kados      the commit log is always a useful metric too:
20:36 kados      it's pretty active
20:36 kados      sure
20:36 rex        I have some tech background so I thought I'd lurk to get a sense of how active the community is, etc.
20:36 kados      excellent
20:36 rex        I'm a professor at UH Manoa and our department library is looking at Koha as a solution for our IT needs.
20:36 rex        Ah -- I was looking at the server address, not yours.
20:35 kados      the NZers won't be here today, it's Saturday there :-)
20:35 kados      s/on/in/
20:35 kados      oh, I'm actually based on Ohio
20:35 kados      what brings you to our temperate channel? :-)
20:35 rex        where in NZ are you?
20:35 rex        85 degrees and sunny... like every day :)
20:34 kados      rex: how's the weather? :-)
20:34 kados      hi rex
20:09 fbcit      I'm off for the weekend.....
18:56 kados      hdl: thanks, I'll take a look
18:55 hdl        There still is a little problem on duplicate subfield But it is more a display problem than and data
18:53 hdl        kados : patch sent.
18:45 fbcit      tnx
18:45 kados      should be startdate date default NULL
18:44 kados      yea, that's just mental
18:44 fbcit      startdate date NOT NULL default 0
18:44 kados      l
18:44 kados      fbcit: thanks, I'll update kohastructure.sq
18:44 kados      it should default to NULL
18:44 fbcit      Is there any particular reason that aqbudget.startdate is defaulted to 0? Since it is a date type could it be defaulted to the current date?
18:03 hdl        sorry dinner
17:45 kados      wow, late lunch :-)
17:32 hdl        lunch time
17:32 hdl        bbsoon
17:32 hdl        Yes I did.
17:29 kados      maybe you didn't run updatedatabase?
17:22 hdl        database structure not uptodate
17:22 hdl        damaged in field list (items table) Is this yours ?
17:15 hdl        still working on it.
17:15 kados      hdl: why, have you solved the probs? :-)
17:15 kados      hdl: haven't pushed it up to main git
16:56 hdl        kados you reverted ?
16:45 kados      bye paul
16:45 paul       bye & good week end to everybody.
16:45 paul       I have to leave now, Nathan is back after 1 week away.
16:44 paul       this will probably be a major problem: if the update is too long, then Apache kill the process
16:44 kados      updatedatabase_over_http-- ;-)
16:44 paul       the process was too long.
16:44 paul       sh...t "internalt server error" ...
16:43 paul       just "return 1;" after the function declaration, and you should be able to validate an item (can't test, update still not finished on my computer)
16:43 paul       and not the new one.
16:42 paul       it seems it uses the "old" marc editor structure (with field_values)
16:42 paul       the Check function is supposed to check that all existing mandatory fields are working.
16:42 kados      it's my fault for not catching this _before_ it was pushed up :-)
16:40 kados      monday is too long I'm afraid
16:40 kados      otherwise additem doesn't work at all in git :/
16:39 kados      well, it's been 48 hours with additem broken so I think i should just revert it if there's not an easy fix
16:38 paul       (update from .008 to .010 is very long for me...)
16:38 paul       cant this just wait until monday ?
16:38 kados      I just tested reverting and it works 'on the surface'
16:38 kados      just to ensure that additem works in mainline git
16:38 kados      hdl, paul ... if we can't resolve the issues with additem today I'm going to revert patch 8bdc7f83acaf471ac9e14c7c0a74e3a4d9a575ee
16:29 paul       (it fixes only duplicate barcode)
16:29 paul       which one ?
16:28 kados      paul: this patch doesnt' seem to fix the problems with additem that I'm experiencing
16:25 paul       i'll leave soon (6:30 pm here)
16:25 kados      paul: I'll test immediately
16:24 kados      thx
16:24 paul       done
16:23 kados      paul: can you cc me, I'd like to test them
16:23 kados      w00t
16:23 paul       yep kados
16:23 kados      paul: patches to additem? :-)
16:20 paul       sending 4 patches to chris now !
16:20 paul       I have found git-send-email again. It's in a specific package on mandriva 2008 ;-)
16:19 paul       hello world
15:31 kados      ahh, right
15:30 Frederic   Except that x right access wasn't set properly. Had to do chmod 755...
15:30 Frederic   Great. It works! Thanks. A simple 'get pull' and I get back a working memberentry.pl.
15:21 kados      sorry about that!
15:21 kados      Frederic: OK, I pushed up a fix
15:15 kados      Frederic: you're right!
14:58 Frederic   I've done a fresh 'git clone' and get the brocken circ/memberentry.pl file.
14:58 Frederic   Yes. But the merging issue occurs into the git repository.
14:54 hdl        This looks like you had a merge problem
14:45 Frederic   which isn't perlish. Etc.
14:45 Frederic   <<<<<<< HEAD:members/memberentry.pl
14:45 Frederic   Line 44, you get:
14:43 hdl        Can you detail ?
14:38 Frederic   Lines: 44 50 115 etc
14:38 Frederic   http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=blob;f=members/memberentry.pl;h=d1bde60b482165129ee2efd69a4940c03a2571e3;hb=HEAD
14:38 Frederic   circ/memberentry.pl is broken in git repository.
14:38 Frederic   Hi,
14:35 kados      heh
14:35 owen       No, that was the YUI guys ;)
14:34 kados      owen: go learn javascript! :-)
14:29 kados      owen: he's on a call atm, should be back soon
14:28 owen       foxnorth, you around?
13:08 ansius     i'll try, thanks!
13:02 kados      the rel_2_2 branch
13:02 kados      ansius: you can run off of CVS
13:01 kados      ansius: http://www.kohadocs.org/Updating_Koha.html
13:01 kados      ansius: perhaps
12:59 ansius     is ther any other way without bugging anyone too much to get a 2.2.10 version?
12:49 ansius     mostly i work with web/php/ drupal cms stuff
12:49 ansius     they didn't want to pay for something like a software, good that they at least bought server
12:49 kados      cool
12:48 ansius     a school one
12:47 kados      ansius: ahh, you're doing this for a client? a library I suppose?
12:46 ansius     i gues that i will not be able to bug him so much to get it asap, cos client want to see something by tomorrow morning (UTC +3)
12:45 kados      ansius: you can bug the package maintainer to release it :-)
12:44 ansius     ok, so hwre can I get 2.2.10
12:43 kados      you don't want that :-)
12:43 kados      ansius: no, that is a developer's pre-release
12:43 ansius     another dumb question what is 'http://download.savannah.nongnu.org/releases/koha/koha-2.3.0.tar.gz' and will it work with mySQL5 ?
12:39 kados      sweet
12:39 fbcit      kados: It appears that pg 8.3 will have enums.
12:36 fbcit      kados: ok. I'll go that direction then.
12:34 kados      fbcit: value shuld be fine
12:34 kados      fbcit: hmmm
12:34 the_ansius jap i know, but i vasnt able to solve them :(
12:33 kados      the_ansius: it's likely the trouble wasn't related to koha, but one of the dependencies
12:33 fbcit      kados: So, who to ask?
12:33 the_ansius but no AMD64 didnt like mysql-4.1
12:33 fbcit      kados: It will make a difference in how I handle it in pg. Reading in the mysql man indicates either value or index can be accessed w/SELECT.
12:32 the_ansius ubuntu was before my choice
12:32 the_ansius im no linux expert (except the typical LAMP setups), and have had trouble with getiing koha runing on various distributions.
12:31 kados      fbcit: hmmm, to be honest I'm not sure
12:30 fbcit      kados: so code referring to this field looks at the index rather than the value?
12:30 the_ansius ok now i can talk, git mIRC running
12:28 kados      fbcit: type varchar(10) will be fine
12:28 kados      fbcit: position is just a numeric value defining the order to search the server
12:27 kados      fbcit: mason is in NZ, so probably asleep if he know's what's good for him :-)
12:26 fbcit      masonj: so I'm using a constraint to do the same thing.
12:26 fbcit      masonj: in z3950servers.position and type will a datatype of varchar(10) be sufficient? pg lacks an 'enum' type...
12:25 ansius     dumer question, how to get it form there...
12:23 kados      but you can bug him :-) his name is Paul Poulain :-)
12:22 ansius     good news! :D
12:22 kados      2.2.10 hasn't been released and the package maintainer has said he won't have time to create it
12:22 ansius     good news! :D
12:22 ansius     good news! :D
12:22 ansius     oho, so the 2.2.10 is in dev section?
12:21 kados      but it's all there in CVS
12:21 kados      the package maintainer hasn't released a 2.2.10 with all the mysql 5 support
12:20 kados      well, I run Koha on mysql 5
12:20 ansius     ok, debian how did you manage tu get mysql 4.1 runing, i have been triing that for 2 days
12:20 ansius     ok, debian how did you manage tu get mysql 4.1 runing, i have been triing that for 2 days
12:19 ansius     a dum question, wich distro of linux would be the best for koha, i have had trouble with all of them... :(
12:19 ansius     a dum question, wich distro of linux would be the best for koha, i have had trouble with all of them... :(
12:17 kados      ansius I mean :-)
12:17 kados      hi ani
12:16 ansius     hi there!
12:13 kados      http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=commitdiff;h=8bdc7f83acaf471ac9e14c7c0a74e3a4d9a575ee
12:13 kados      I attached a note to the bug specifying the specific patch it was
12:12 kados      when you try to add, you won't be able to save the record
12:12 kados      when you edit, all the fields will disappear
12:12 kados      try to edit or add an item at the URL I sent you
12:11 kados      it's easiest to show you
12:11 hdl        what problem fo you have ?
12:11 kados      hi hdl
12:11 hdl        hi kados
12:11 hdl        hi dados
12:05 fbcit      kados: I'll take a look. tnx
12:03 kados      hdl: I'm having trouble with the patches to additem.pl/tmpl
12:02 kados      paul_away: ?
12:02 kados      hdl: are you here?
12:01 kados      fbcit: http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=history;f=installer/kohastructure.sql;h=50d53c5f26980f8170cddae34f3edd32eceaa74f;hb=HEAD
12:01 kados      fbcit: http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=summary
12:00 kados      fbcit: maybe just one ... but you should be able to rebase and catch those
12:00 kados      fbcit: just so you know, I think there have been a couple changes to the db since you started
11:56 kados      fbcit: yes
11:49 fbcit      kados:Do I understand right: mysql 'enum' type simply limits a column to one of several pre-defined options?
