02:06 chris        bodgey :)
02:06 chris        right
02:05 gmcharlt     interposing an SSH tunnel
02:05 gmcharlt     kinda sorta
02:05 chris        that worked
02:05 gmc_test     temporary test of CGI::IRC
01:16 mason        ok, back to it..
01:13 mason        very timely
01:12 gmcharlt     mason: http://delivermagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/01/agenview-by_acme.jpg
01:11 mason        wearing many hats!
01:10 mason        getting there...
01:10 gmcharlt     how are you doing?
01:09 gmcharlt     just a little bit :)
01:09 mason        u keeping busy over there galen
01:09 gmcharlt     hey mason :)
01:07 chris        *nod*
01:07 gmcharlt     I'll find out tomorrow
01:07 gmcharlt     given number of DOS attacks on pippin on late, it may be that Clay decided to lock down outbound and missed the CGI::IRC app
01:06 chris        by blocking high ports
01:06 mason        hmm, how to debug that :(
01:06 chris        probably some retarded isp trying to stop p2p
01:06 gmcharlt     would definitely explain lack of CGI-foo nicks for the past few weeks :)
01:06 chris        so i suspect some outbound filtering is going on
01:06 gmcharlt     heh
01:06 chris        yeah, i can telnet to both from a variety of machines
01:05 gmcharlt     so probably on our end
01:05 mason        ah
01:05 chris        *nod*
01:05 gmcharlt     also times out for irc.freenode.net 6667
01:05 chris        but you can get to other irc servers?
01:04 gmcharlt     times out
01:04 chris        from the machine
01:04 chris        try telnet irc.katipo.co.nz 6667
01:04 gmcharlt     not likely
01:04 gmcharlt     right, but they theoretically could be blocking that IP address for some reason
01:03 chris        its just another client hitting on port 6667
01:03 chris        well from the katipo end, it cant tell
01:01 gmcharlt     chris: thx.  somethings preventing CGI::IRC from connecting to irc.katipo.co.nz - try to figure out if we're being blocked on the LL or Katipo end
01:00 chris        they are on holiday, snowboarding and such
00:58 gmcharlt     si: about?
21:44 Roberto      Okay.  Thanks.
21:42 gmcharlt     you can use extended patron attributes to keep track of the grade levels for reporting purposes
21:42 gmcharlt     Roberto: not unless you have different loan periods for each grade
21:39 Roberto      In a school setting, would there be any good reason to set a patron category for each grade, or isn't that level of division necessary?
21:34 djmaster     if I do not speak English, someone could help in Spanish
21:23 djmaster                     XML::RSS Algorithm::CheckDigits::M43_001 Biblio::EndnoteStyle POE Schedule::At

21:21 djmaster     everything is fine??
21:19 gmcharlt     djmaster: was module installed anyway, though? i.e., does perl -e 'use ZOOM;' work?
21:18 djmaster     This is the error after cpan > force install Net::Z3950::ZOOM, http://pgsql.privatepaste.com/3b1RhR0vcj
21:15 djmaster     wait moment please
21:02 gmcharlt     the issue is that a server used for the network portion of the test is offline at moment
21:02 djmaster     ok
21:02 chris        what gmcharlt said :)
21:02 gmcharlt     a force install should be safe
21:02 chris        ah yes, its the tests failing
21:02 gmcharlt     djmaster: there is a known, recent issue with the ZOOM test suite
21:01 djmaster     This is the fault http://pgsql.privatepaste.com/291aryln1E
21:00 chris        :)
20:59 gmcharlt     chris: heh - and I may well have a cat on mine
20:46 chris        acmoore: i may have a toddler squirming on my lap, but ill make it
20:46 acmoore      chris: doesn't sound like the most convenient time for you, but I'm glad you can make it
20:45 chris        ohh 7am saturday for the meeting, that works
20:45 djmaster     wait
20:45 chris        whats the error?
20:44 djmaster     failure at the time of installation
20:44 Thatcher_Rea atz you there?
20:43 djmaster     no
20:43 gmcharlt     djmaster: is it failing during the test suite
20:41 djmaster     someone has idea that might be happening??
20:40 djmaster     hello I have a problem with the module Net: Z3950: ZOOM, I can not install
20:24 Roberto      When I log in with "My Library" it says I have no library selected.  When I log in with the library I've defined, it uses that, without requiring additional selection of the library.
20:20 atz          that is almost always the correct one
20:19 atz          Roberto: that just means that it takes the library from the account the user is logging in with
20:17 djmaster     hola roberto
19:57 Roberto      Don't see that in any settings, so far.
19:57 Roberto      Small detail: is there a way to make our defined library the default value on the 8080 screen, instead of having it say "My Library" and forcing someone to select?
19:49 Roberto      For some, oddball reason, the settings that were coming up from koha said "127.0.1.1" instead if "127.0.0.1" but I changed those references to "*" as you had indicated, and it worked.
19:47 atz          cool
19:47 Roberto      got it working now.
19:47 Roberto      That had just been a guess from other info I had found.
19:47 atz          should not point to your config file
19:46 atz          Roberto: DirectoryIndex is a separate thing
19:46 Roberto      atz, I found it.
19:45 Roberto      Hola.  Que tal?
19:45 djmaster     hola
19:43 Roberto      I think I'm just pointing to the wrong place.
19:41 Roberto      Well, it was, but they didn't help - at least not yet.
19:36 Roberto      Am looking more closely...  That isn't XML - it looks like suggested VirtualHost settings.
19:35 Roberto      Wait....
19:34 Roberto      Just about everything else is the same as the default file already was, except for commenting out NameVirtualHost.
19:33 Roberto              DirectoryIndex /koha-httpd.conf
19:33 Roberto             DocumentRoot /etc/koha/
19:33 Roberto      Maybe I'm not changing ENOUGH in the VirtualHost section.  I have the following changed:
19:31 Roberto      (or at least that's what it looks like)
19:31 Roberto      Ah.  Well, I've actually done those things, but all I keep getting, now, when I try to point to (for example) 127.0.0.1 is the XML.
19:29 atz          then comment out NameVirtualHost
19:29 atz          Put asterisks in, like  <VirtualHost *>
19:29 Roberto      Let me see what I can find about VirtualHost
19:28 Roberto      That part is immaterial.  The question is how to make koha the default thing that someone sees, regardless of how they actually connect.
19:28 atz          the VirtualHost definitions specify what apache responds to
19:27 Roberto      By system name, I simply meant that the DNS and/or host files would handle it.
19:27 atz          (it can be done, if the system is configured correctly, but you can't make it happen)
19:26 atz          Roberto: you can't force a remote system to connect to you by system name
19:23 Roberto      THOSE settings worked, but now I'd like them to be the default.
19:22 Roberto      I've tried variations of the ensite dissite commands, that are in INSTALL.debian, but those are not for default, but want a different site name.
19:22 hdl          it is explained in INSTALL.debian, iirc.
19:21 Roberto      hdl, I'm not familiar enough with that.
19:21 hdl          Roberto: just make it on port 80 like default website on debian?
19:20 hdl          ryan: never mind. was a question about biblio.serial and its management when no subfield attached
19:15 Roberto      Haven't seen much response in a while, hdl.
19:13 hdl          ryan: around ?
19:01 Roberto      Okay.  Tried a few things, but am NOT that familiar with this end of Apache management.  How do I make koha the default page to come up when someone on the LAN just types the system name or IP address?
18:13 Roberto      Okay.  In other words, there are no aleady-customisable settings for this?
18:11 gmcharlt     a new graphic, I would think
17:43 Roberto      ...or would it be necessary for me to create a different graphic for the logo, etc.?
17:35 Roberto      For me, it doesn't matter: I'm an American who helps them with these things.  The staff and students have Spanish as their first language, however.
17:34 Roberto      In any case, IS there a way to change "Koha" to something else for staff and patrons?
17:33 Roberto      http://www.snopes.com/business/misxlate/nova.asp
17:32 gmcharlt     Roberto: yeah, I had heard that it was an urban legend
17:30 Roberto      In fact, in Mexico, the Nova was a VERY popular car, and people were not the least put off by the supposedly problematic name.
17:30 Roberto      If it were two separate words ("no va") it would mean "doesn't go" or the like, but as a single word, it's just another Latin root meaning "new"
17:29 Roberto      Which is actually apocryphal.
17:27 gmcharlt     Roberto: heh - reminds me of the story of the Chevy Nova
17:25 Roberto      Still seeing lots of references to "Koha," including a logo containing the word.  Since this is a Spanish-speaking country, how do I get rid of that, as suggested by the koha FAQ (since "koha" sounds like "coja," which means "lame")?
17:21 Roberto      The installation appears to be complete.  Now I just have to figure out how to use this beast - and then teach the people in the school how to use it.
17:12 Roberto      Well, Honduras (Central America) tends to have more U.S. connections, so MARC21 should probably be better.  As I said: we are so small the MARC side of things may neve even get used.
17:11 acmoore      perhaps the pending or upcoming database changes should be listed there with no database version number or something like that.
17:10 atz          Roberto: MARC21 is more US, UNIMARC is more Europe
17:10 acmoore      aha. OK. I was just wondering about the funny use of the database revision wiki page.
17:09 gmcharlt     acmoore: I have notified Jesse
17:09 gmcharlt     acmoore: not yet (at least, not in a appliable form)
17:09 Roberto      Well, the web installer is working, so far.  Any suggestions on choosing a flavour of MARC?  It may not even matter here.
17:08 acmoore      gmcharlt: have database versions v3.01.00.002 and v3.01.00.003 not been submitted yet?
17:01 Roberto              Failed 12/40 tests, 70.00% okay
17:01 Roberto      DIED. FAILED tests 3, 5, 7, 10, 13-14, 24, 29, 33, 37, 40-41
17:01 Roberto              Test returned status 11 (wstat 2816, 0xb00)
17:01 Roberto      t/26-packages...........dubious
17:01 Roberto      # Looks like you failed 11 tests of 41 run.
17:01 Roberto      (several other things associated with that)
17:00 Roberto      Examples: #   Failed test 'database creation 'wapkjqcjba''
17:00 Roberto      Had to force the install.  It still complained about a couple of things (examples to follow), but at least I'm getting something in my browser now.
16:59 Roberto      Sorry - got sidetracked on a phone call.
16:48 liz          excellent thanks atz
16:45 atz          working on it further this afternoon
16:42 atz          liz: i've looked at it, been breaking SIP into smaller cases w/ tests.  it looks like the initial implementation had hardcoded 2 week due date to avoid having to check.
16:36 liz          atz: any info on bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2541 ?
16:34 Roberto      It's doing it now.
16:33 gmcharlt     (and actually, that would be 'sudo cpan', of course)
16:33 gmcharlt     force install Net::Z3950::ZOOM
16:33 gmcharlt     if you get the same test errors, then do
16:33 gmcharlt     install Net::Z3950::ZOOM
16:33 gmcharlt     then in cpan shell
16:33 gmcharlt     cpan
16:33 gmcharlt     Roberto: try this
16:33 Roberto      again, or just one part?

16:32 Roberto      Should I try the whole...
16:32 Roberto      Maybe something happened when I mentioned those earlier errors.  Will try to CPAN that package again.
16:31 Roberto      Okay.  That's it.
16:31 Roberto      Remember seeing something about ZOOM, somewhere in the instructions, but can't find it now....still looking.
16:31 acmoore      yeah, I guess I wasn't really asking you. That was more of a rhetorical question or something. Anyway, you're missing one of the dependnecies.
16:31 liz          hey #koha, can anybody tell me the status of bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2541
16:30 acmoore      I think it's called Net::Z3950::ZOOM.
16:29 Roberto      Wouldn't know.
16:28 acmoore      I forget what that dependency is called. it's the Z3950 perl module. Is that Net::Z3950 or something like that?
16:25 Roberto      This time, I'll wait for your reply, since I can't proceed any more.

16:24 Roberto      The following fatal error has occurred:
16:24 Roberto      shouldn't be "localhost:8080" but "library:8080"
16:23 Roberto      Ah....getting there.
16:22 Roberto      when I try "localhost:8080" as suggested, it just goes to the default site (i.e. "it works") and if I try the site name a couple different ways, it's just not found.
16:21 Roberto      Now trying to figure out how to access the site.
16:21 Roberto      the "make install" seemed to make it through okay.
16:12 acmoore      one problem is that we don't run them with the '-v' flag, so there's not that much information shown on the display. another is that we don't really log it or anything so it can be sent in later.
15:56 Roberto      If there's a log that may contain that, I could try posting that.
15:55 Roberto      Too late.  I've already gone ahead and run the "sudo make install"
15:40 gmcharlt     pastebin?
15:39 acmoore      I'd be interested in seeing which tests failed. I don't know of a good way for you to show me, though.
15:38 acmoore      it should not be. Those questions are about a more extensive test suite. Koha runs a small one by default regardless of how you answer those questions.
15:33 Roberto      Is that because I said "no" to the earlier installation question about testing?
15:32 Roberto      Failed 9/19 test scripts, 52.63% okay. 19/47 subtests failed, 59.57% okay.
15:29 Roberto      Well, the installation is still going, so that's good.  Just sitting back and waiting, now.
15:04 paul         (using misc/migration_tools/rebuild(no)zebra.pl
15:04 paul         you just need to change a syspref and reindex your datas
15:03 paul         Roberto: you can switch zebra/nozebra when you want.
14:57 Roberto      It is unlikely that we would need it, but I would just like to know, for future reference.
14:56 Roberto      Since our system will be so small, I will choose NOT to use Zebra.  If, for some reason, Zebra becomes necessary later on, is it possible to "switch in on" at that time?
14:55 mc           so one more account ;)
14:55 mc           ok
14:54 acmoore      I don't think so.
14:52 mc           ?)
14:52 mc           (i mean: i created an account on contrib.koha.org: can it work for bugs.*
14:51 mc           does liblime tools share authentification ?
14:29 hdl          Amit ?
14:29 Roberto      Hello, mc.
14:27 mc_          hello world
14:19 Roberto      Judging from the rest of the line, it only appears to be some kind of test, not critical for continuation.
14:18 acmoore      Roberto: someone else reported that indexdata has recently changed their service, and that it's causeing failing tests, too.
14:18 gmcharlt     Roberto: known issue - IndexData's test server is down at the moment
14:15 Roberto      #   in t/16-packages.t at line 88.
14:15 Roberto      #   Failed test 'connection to 'test.indexdata.com:2118' refused (10007)'
13:42 Roberto      For example, if a directory is named "koha" and you mistype the command as "cd kohs" it will ask you "koha?" instead of just giving an error message.  Is that available in bash, at all?
13:40 Roberto      Some versions of UNIX shells have a "spell-check" feature built in to the "cd" command.
13:39 Roberto      Here's an off-the-wall question I've just never bothered to check...
13:36 Roberto      That was my guess.  Just checking.
13:35 acmoore      it seems like you always get an error like that until you get the debian keys on your keyring or something like that.
13:35 acmoore      Roberto: probably not. I think that the keyring is the thing that debian uses to authenticate its own packages.
13:35 atz_         Roberto: not sure on that one... probably not a big deal
13:32 Roberto      Should I be at all concerned that, during the step to install the debian-backports-keyring, it said it could not be authenticated?
13:28 Amit         like koha-2.2.5 to koha-3 stable
13:27 Amit         i already installed step by step
13:27 Amit         like fedora
13:27 Amit         i have not studies any install documentation
13:26 Amit         no
13:26 atz_         Amit: you may want to use the INSTALL.fedora7 document then
13:24 acmoore      Roberto: thanks.
13:22 Roberto      There was nothing more current at kohadocs.org
13:21 Roberto      http://www.kohadocs.org/Installing_Koha_on_Debian_sarge.html
13:21 Roberto      AC, those are the ones under "English" in the "Installation" section at kohadocs
13:19 acmoore      Roberto: where are the instructions for koha 2.2 and Sarge that you followed at first? I'd like to get those removed.
13:19 Amit         not on debian
13:19 Amit         hey atz i am on RHEL
13:18 atz_         Amit: you will want to use the same file: INSTALL.debian
13:17 Roberto      Let me see if THOSE instructions help any more than the ones on the web.
13:16 Roberto      I had not downloaded Koha yet, but have since done so, and just discovered the INSTALL,Debian file you just mentioned.
13:16 atz_         the binary package for Event would be libevent-perl, i think
13:16 Roberto      Since I still had to install Debian on this machine, anyway, I had followed the directions exactly, making sure I still had all the Debian things right.
13:16 atz_         INSTALL.debian should be the most current
13:15 Roberto      I've been following the documentation from the kohadocs site...
13:14 Roberto      Let me see if this is any different...
13:14 Roberto      atz, that would be great if I had any idea what it was or how it fit in, but I don't.  Wait.....
13:13 Amit         i have no idea on debian
13:13 Amit         sory for that debian
13:13 Amit         i am installed koha on RHEL
13:13 atz_         you might try a manual process for that module, or look for a debian packaged binary
13:12 Roberto      Then again, the documentation doesn't seem to be very current, since the instructions say Koha 2.2 and Debian Sarge.
13:12 Roberto      Could be I'm missing a dependency of some sort, but so far, I've followed the Debian-related installation instructions exactly.
13:11 atz_         Roberto: never seen that one...
13:11 Amit         then
13:10 Roberto      It's during the "install Event" part of CPAN
13:10 Amit         i amit from india
13:10 Amit         tell me
13:10 danny        hello #koha
13:10 Amit         yes
13:10 Roberto      Here it is: invalid type argument of ‘unary *’
13:10 Roberto      Ah!  Someone is awake!
13:09 atz_         Roberto: what error?
12:58 Roberto      More specifically, for an error encountered?
12:57 Roberto      Anyone available for installation help?
