03:18 Amit hi brendan
03:16 Amit hi chris
22:36 Snell outch
22:35 atz if you think this is bad, try building unicode PDF's using CPAN modules
22:30 Snell they sould have imposed an encoding standard with these, why utf-8 when we could go directly to utf-16, I bet our asian friends would love that.
22:27 Snell diacritics problems have been driving me insane for the past 3 days
22:26 atz yeah, that is the regrettable part... all that built around MARC21 and z39 that totally fail to provide reliable utf8
22:25 Snell and the nice z39.50 standard
22:25 atz it is remarkable how many layers there are that need to be utf8... browser, OS, keyboard, webserver, database, table, session...
22:23 Snell maybe it's a web server configuration detail
22:22 Snell and most of the users will have a windows workstation to use the system
22:21 Snell koha runs on a linux server, i have a windows workstation
22:21 atz you may be able to set your keyboard to unicode instead of US ascii or whatever
22:21 Snell and if i paste the site text in notepad for example, i get they funny square that tells me there is a encoding trick
22:21 atz what OS?
22:20 Snell well, if i type it in, it does not work, if i copy paste it from the site, it works...
22:19 atz *it probably works
22:19 atz for each common diacritic that is "not working" in search, if you used the composed form of the same character is probably works
22:19 atz Snell: the issues are more w/ normalization than w/ diacritics themselves
22:01 SelfishMan diacritics are fun
21:56 Snell anyone got issues using the opac search with accentuated characters?
21:16 chris heh
21:15 gmcharlt heh - should do capes as conference schwag
21:14 chris superlibrarians can do everything :)
21:10 owen I wasn't expecting that.
21:10 owen My test installation works okay. Part of my confusion comes from the fact that it seems a superlibrarian can edit and delete public shelves from the OPAC
21:09 owen I can't figure out when the fix came, but it must have been recently enough that NPL's live install doesn't have the fix
21:09 owen Okay, so I guess I'm wrong about editing and deleting public shelves...
20:07 chris yep 5 hours exactly
20:07 chris yeah, not raining yet.. heres hoping it just stays cloudy
20:07 brendan it should start in about 5 hours - if the rain clears?
20:06 brendan bummer --
20:06 chris brendan: if you are watching it looks like it might rain today :(
20:03 chris musta got broken again
20:03 chris owen: i was sure that was fixed?
20:03 chris [Xwire]: http://krishnanm.com/khh/koha3fedora9 might be some help
20:03 owen ...and logged-in users can edit and delete shelves which are not their own.
20:02 SelfishMan ha!
20:02 chris awesome!!
20:02 owen Great...looks like non-logged-in users can edit and delete public shelves
20:02 chris buenos dias
19:29 [Xwire] i found a guide for installing version koha 2.2 on fedora core 4, would it be much different for koha 3
19:19 owen Yeah, I'm just trying to understand what's going on. My Perl skills aren't good enough to get the whole picture.
19:18 gmcharlt is that what you're after?
19:18 gmcharlt storing item info for later use around line 265
19:15 owen $itemhash{$itm->{'itemnumber'}}=$itm;
19:15 owen Anyone around for a Perl question? What is this doing at line 137 of opac-reserve.pl?
18:56 atz [Xwire]: it's possible
18:52 [Xwire] koha version 3 that is
18:52 [Xwire] ?
18:52 [Xwire] chance*
18:52 [Xwire] is there any chanced that i'd be able to install on fedora core 4
16:42 hdl_laptop1 np
16:42 Snell hdl_laptop1: thanks a lot, it works now!
16:40 jwagner Oh, well. One out of two ain't bad -- thanks!
16:39 owen sorry jwagner, I don't know a thing about record matching rules!
16:39 jwagner Owen, since you're here :-) I posted an earlier question about record matching rules, but it got lost in another conversation. I also sent a message to the listserv. Gist is, what do I use for index names? Do I need to track down the Zebra index names? I want to set up some additional rules beyond ISBN & ISSN.
16:37 jwagner Not an issue on this particular server -- we'll keep it in mind for others. Thanks much.
16:37 owen I think in computing terms the only issue of running it more frequently is an increased load on the Koha server...which may or may not be an issue.
16:36 jwagner Thanks, Owen. The staff are complaining that a once-per-hour run isn't frequent enough. I just wanted to make sure there wouldn't be any problems on the system end with increasing it. We'll have to point out the need to complete pulling in the time period.
16:36 owen I might find that at 10:15AM someone in another branch got a revised pull list with something that was on my list
16:35 owen At 10:30AM I pick it up again and start pulling stuff
16:35 owen Say I print out the list at 10AM, but I don't finish pulling everything
16:34 owen jwagner: the only possible glitches are on the staff side of things
16:30 jwagner Can someone answer a question on the build_holds_queue.pl cron? The manual suggests running it every 1-4 hours. Are there any implications to running it more frequently, like every 10-15 minutes?
16:27 hdl_laptop1 ASCII avec ANSEL(ANSI Z39.47) et MARC 21 (anciennement USMARC et CAN/MARC) ASCII avec ANSEL(ANSI Z39.47) et MARC 21 (anciennement USMARC et CAN/MARC)
16:26 hdl_laptop1 So you should have better results with marc-8
16:26 hdl_laptop1 Snell: your biblio records are not encoded in ISO-8859-1 But in MARC-8 ANSEL
16:25 hdl_laptop1 Snell: i have checked your link
15:34 hdl_laptop1 We planned to work on that.
15:33 hdl_laptop1 We'll update them.
15:33 hdl_laptop1 thx.
15:33 gmcharlt hdl_laptop1: 3007
15:31 gmcharlt so (with the exception of three templates) that I'm about to send you a bug for, HEAD is now using English for all of the unimarc value_builder templates
15:31 hdl_laptop1 Thanks.
15:31 gmcharlt I've cherry-picked it into HEAD
15:31 gmcharlt hdl_laptop1: there was a 3.0.x patch translating the UNIMARC tempaltes that was pushed to 3.0.x but never submitted for HEAD
15:30 hdl_laptop1 yes gmcharlt
15:15 gmcharlt ok, I can wait
15:15 paul_p2 gmcharlt: we (hdl, nicomo & me) are skyping (long conference)
15:13 gmcharlt hdl_laptop1: about?
15:06 mc thx
15:03 mahesh_c my z3950 search from koha is not returning any result
15:03 Snell Ill go see if I can figure out something in the perl code
15:02 Snell humm, i gess ill have to find a way to add 8859, nothing on that subject on the web...
15:01 hdl_laptop1 won't forget
14:59 mc hdl_laptop1 hey ... don't forget to send me the snapshot of atz and me ;)
14:58 hdl_laptop1 Snell: not at all
14:57 Snell Does the language configured during installation influences the encoding schemes available for z39.50 servers once koha is installed?
14:54 hdl_laptop1 hi atz It was a pleasure to see you.
14:54 hdl_laptop1 weird.
14:53 mahesh_c hdl_laptop1: but yaz client is working perfectly
14:52 mahesh_c hdl_laptop1: my z3950 search from koha is not returning any result
14:52 mahesh_c my z3950 search from koha is not returning any result
14:51 mahesh_c atz: thanks for showing it
14:51 hdl_laptop1 What was the problem ?
14:51 hdl_laptop1 mahesh_c: good...
14:51 mahesh_c atz: i could figure it out..
14:51 mahesh_c hdl_laptop1: i could figure it out..
14:50 atz just z3950.loc.gov
14:50 atz mahesh_c: shouldn't be "target:" in the address
14:49 mahesh_c hdl_laptop1: i am getting a " Z>
14:48 mahesh_c hdl_laptop1: its working i got the message Connecting...OK.
14:46 mahesh_c hdl_laptop1: if i put that in browser, it works.
14:44 hdl_laptop1 ...then it might be that that causes the problem
14:44 hdl_laptop1 if you cannot resolve target z3950.loc.gov
14:43 mahesh_c hdl_laptop1: there must be a port number also...right?
14:43 mahesh_c hdl_laptop1: Could not resolve address target:z3950.loc.gov
14:41 hdl_laptop1 z3950.loc....
14:40 mahesh_c hdl_laptop1: for loc, what should i use for target?
14:39 hdl_laptop1 yaz-client target:port/database
14:39 Snell laptop1 as a better solution for you anyways =0p
14:38 mahesh_c hdl_laptop1: my x server crashed
14:38 hdl_laptop1 mahesh_c: you can also use Command line.
14:38 mahesh_c hdl_laptop1: i am sorry.
14:38 hdl_laptop1 mahesh_c: sorry
14:38 Snell i just noticed i answered mahesh after he disconnected
14:38 hdl_laptop1 Snell: you can also use Command line.
14:37 Snell if you make a successeful request with this software, i would confirm that your firewall isin't an issue, oh it's a win32
14:35 Snell i found a free software named "mercury z39.50 client" loc is already configured
14:34 Snell maesh_c: you can try with another z39.50 client
14:33 Snell i'm also having the same issues with LOC, the garbaged characters changes, but the problem is basically the same
14:33 Snell all the server info can be found there, in french: http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/amicus/006002-400-f.html
14:32 mahesh_c hdl_laptop1: how can i check whether it is the firewall causing the problem?
14:32 Snell marc21/usmarc
14:32 hdl_laptop1 Would you send me you Z3950 target profile ?
14:32 Snell yep
14:31 hdl_laptop1 mmmm... are you MARC21 ?
14:31 mahesh_c snell: i am still getting the message nothing found. try another search
14:31 Snell and with the other one as well
14:31 Snell hdl_laptop1: i'm still having "encoding issues" with iso 6937
14:31 hdl_laptop1 I have just searched for Jquery and it workd.
14:31 mahesh_c hdl_laptop1: irc was also not working for me. it started working after the admin changed my settings.
14:29 mahesh_c hdl_laptop1: i "was" behind a firewall. the system admin changed it for me.
14:29 Snell try a search with this isbn, i know they have it: 2906553050
14:29 mahesh_c snell: this is the exact message "Nothing found. Try another search."
14:29 hdl_laptop1 mahesh_c: can be because you are behind a fw you have to open ports so that LoC can be contacted.
14:28 Snell give me a few minutes, ill try a few things on my side
14:27 mahesh_c snell: i am also using koha 3
14:27 mahesh_c snell: it shows no results found try another search
14:27 Snell i'm working with koha 3.0.1, i'm not familiar with previous releases
14:26 Snell well, what kind of result page does it gives you?
14:24 mahesh_c snell: why does that happen? i am searching to loc
14:24 Snell with my marc/usmarc installation, any unimarc record record looks blank
14:24 Snell mahesh: does your conexion with the server works? depending on your installation choice, koha supports marc21/usmarc or unimarc records
14:22 mahesh_c hdl_lptop1:the z3950 search in add MARC record is not returning any result can you help me?
14:22 jwagner Is someone around who knows record matching rules? I have some questions....
14:20 Snell thanks
14:20 Snell ok, ill give it a try
14:20 hdl_laptop1 And not what it publicizes.
14:19 hdl_laptop1 it is indeed only 8859-1
14:19 hdl_laptop1 Snell: try with 6937 : should do that Job.
14:18 Snell library and archives canada desen't as far as i can tell
14:17 hdl_laptop1 Snell: quite often ISO5426 or 6937 are used by latin libraries.
14:15 Snell i have the choice between iso 5426, iso 6937 utf8 ans marc 8
14:15 mahesh_c hdl_lptop1:the z3950 search in add MARC record is not returning any result
14:14 hdl_laptop1 nice to meet you.
14:14 Snell i was supprised not to find it
14:13 mahesh_c hdl_lptop1:sure
14:13 Snell oh, i'm french canadian
14:13 hdl_laptop1 I am french.
14:13 hdl_laptop1 mmmm... it would be much surprising it would not be supported.
14:12 Snell iso 8859-1
14:12 hdl_laptop1 mahesh_c: maybe i can help
14:12 hdl_laptop1 Snell: which encoding would you like to find ?
14:09 Snell i would like to add more choices there
14:09 Snell koha gives me 4 different encodind shemes to select when i config a new z39.50 server
14:08 Snell that's the problem, it dosent
14:08 owen One response I've heard for that problem is to check whether the encoding setting for that server in Koha matches what the server is actually returning
14:06 Snell my results have grabage caracter instead of the supposed accentuated ones
14:05 Snell it seems i need some support for aditional encoding
14:04 owen What problems are you having Snell?
14:03 Snell I'm new to koha, and I'm also experiencing some issues with the whole z3950 search
14:03 owen mahesh_c: Are you sure you're trying to contact a working z3950 server?
14:02 mahesh_c owen: mm...me in india
14:01 owen Sorry mahesh_c, looks like no one is awake who might be able to help you
13:58 mahesh_c the z3950 search in add MARC record is not returning any result
