12:19 slef        elwell: hrm, worst I've had is client->client->our-hardware->rackowner->landlord
12:20 slef        wouldn't really want to be on the bottom of a tree like that, but it takes all sorts
12:20 slef        actually, this is us->client->cheap_reseller->??unknown??
12:20 slef        so it could be as bad or worse
12:47 kf          nahuel: just saw your patch - renewals in issuing rules is a great feature! My library will be really happy about this. :)
12:47 nahuel      héhé
12:47 nahuel      it's not the end
12:47 nahuel      I'm going to work on reserves in issuing rules
12:47 nahuel      (a little more complicated
12:47 nahuel      )à
12:54 kf          yes, I believe thats really difficult, but I think it will be a great plus for Koha in the end
12:55 kf          testing "fine days" now :)

18:21 wizzyrea    if you are iterested, there is a kegger meeting going on at the state lib of kansas wimba room at http://webj.wimba.com/launcher.cgi?room=ks_adastra log in as participant
18:25 chris       morning
18:26 slef        grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrragh
18:26 pianohacker mornin'
18:26 chris       whoa, nice welcome slef :)
18:26 slef        "your .htaccess file may have been removed as part of hosting accounts being cleaned one by one to remove all traces of the malware attack that our systems have suffered"
18:27 slef        sorry, I'm beside myself with rage at this hosting provider
18:27 slef        like they sent me the above
18:27 chris       ohh, thats a very clownish thing to do
18:27 pianohacker Ahh, the joys of shared hosting
18:28 slef        so did our htaccess file contain malware (=> we need to review our systems more closely) or not?
18:28 chris       'we have no idea what we are doing, here lemme start deleting stuff, that will fix it'
18:28 slef        yeah, I know exactly what company is behind this
18:28 chris       wimba hates me wizzyrea
18:28 slef        ultimately, it's the DirectI/PDR/LogicBoxes confusopoly
18:28 chris       hates me and my lack of java
18:29 slef        java--
18:30 slef        it also whinges about not being allowed pop-up windows
18:30 chris       the_island_of_java_not_the_programming_language++
18:30 slef        heh I have Java installed but it doesn't detect it
18:30 slef        bad code
18:30 wizzyrea    aw, that's ot cool
18:30 pianohacker wimba--
18:30 wizzyrea    stupid wimba
18:30 slef        so let's try starting it anyway
18:30 wizzyrea    it's not really my platform of choice
18:30 pianohacker I remember fighting that tool for several hours just trying to get it to connect, let alone work
18:31 chris       webinar software seems like a problem no one has solved well yet
18:31 wizzyrea    omg, don't even get me started... between wimba and OPAL
18:31 wizzyrea    ./wrist

18:31 slef        http://www.generatesuccess.co.uk/why-i-didnt-buy-some-online-courses/46
18:32 slef        that's not a webinar, it's a limited-platform java application pretending to be one
18:32 slef        anyway, let me email this rant back at the ISP
18:32 chris       :)
18:33 chris       i have someone yelling 'daddy'
18:33 chris       but its only 6.34am
18:33 chris       do i go get him up, and possibly set a trend .. or leave him yelling and wake the baby?
18:33 slef        plastic baggie over the head?
18:33 slef        soundproof box?
18:33 chris       that may have been alright in the 50's
18:34 chris       but they frown on that now :)
18:34 slef        damn Human Rights Acts and political correctness, eh?
18:34 chris       hehe
18:35 slef        erm, voicemail from PTFS US. Wasn't my "drop your threat or talk to our lawyers" message clear enough?
18:35 slef        time to email them again... ho hum
18:35 wizzyrea    whoa what happened now?1
18:35 wizzyrea    !
18:35 slef        wizzyrea: nah, this is old stuff
18:36 wizzyrea    slef: oic
18:36 wizzyrea    whew
18:36 slef        wizzyrea: off-list fall-out from that January news release
18:36 slef        don't know about other signatories, but I'm tired of it all
18:36 chris       yeah legal threats might have been alright in the 50's but we frown on that now
18:36 slef        hehehe
18:37 slef        flogging dead horses might have been alright in the 50's but we frown on that now
18:37 chris       lol
18:37 slef        pianohacker: I'm getting it on at least three fronts this week. Expect much ranting and too little code from me :(
18:38 slef        I want to build stuff
18:38 slef        I don't want people to steal it
18:38 slef        I don't want to battle awkward service providers
18:38 slef        I don't want to be in court
18:38 slef        that pretty much covers my ambitions just now
18:41 wizzyrea    slef: oh right, I remember this.
18:41 wizzyrea    lawsuits--
18:44 BrianT      anyone want to answer some noob questions?
18:45 pianohacker BrianT: Sure, what's up?
18:46 slef        please! any distraction from this!
18:46 BrianT      well I'm following Andy Giesler's tutorial on setting up Koha, I am up to the point of being able to log in to the staff interface, but when I try to add patrons it says patron doesn't exist
18:47 wizzyrea    have you defined patron types?
18:47 pianohacker Hmm. That happens when you click on the Add Patron button?
18:47 slef        Andy Giesler's tutorial on setting up Koha?
18:47 BrianT      I'm using the sample patron types and I tried under staff, board, and library
18:47 BrianT      http://www.blazingmoon.org/guides/k3-on-u810-8.html
18:48 BrianT      link is the tutorial
18:48 wizzyrea    you have javascript turned on in your browser? (stab in dark)
18:49 slef        so what URL do you try to add patrons at and what do you click to do it and exactly what text does it reply with,please?
18:49 BrianT      http://127.0.1.1:8080/cgi-bin/koha/members/memberentry.pl?op=add&amp;categorycode=PT
18:50 BrianT      url for adding patrons
18:51 BrianT      so I fill in the fields that are required and then click save
18:52 BrianT      then I get http://127.0.1.1:8080/cgi-bin/koha/members/moremember.pl?borrowernumber=0
18:52 BrianT      This patron does not exist
18:52 slef        I remember something about borrowernumber=0
18:52 slef        searching
18:53 slef        paul_p said "if you log in with the mySQL login/password, you are borrowernumber=0, and many features don't work"
18:53 slef        not quite the same
18:54 wizzyrea    hm, but he can't seem to add another patron to make his superlibrarian
18:54 slef        this looks like the database isn't working right
18:54 slef        because it's returning 0 as mysql_insert_id
18:54 BrianT      doh
18:55 slef        wizzyrea: yes, it's not this problem
18:55 slef        need to create a user
18:55 slef        BrianT: does the koha ... no, that won't work
18:55 slef        hrrrrm
18:56 slef        looking at the tutorial again
18:57 chris       still at the airport gmcharlt ?
18:57 gmcharlt    chris: no, on the airplane
18:57 gmcharlt    inflight wifi
18:57 BrianT      nice
18:57 chris       ohh look at you mr fancy pants
18:57 slef        gmcharlt: can you read the last 20 minutes IRC log please?
18:57 chris       :)
18:58 gmcharlt    slef: looking
18:58 slef        I'm sure I remember something about borrowernumber=0 but I can't find it
18:58 slef        user problem
18:58 slef        if it's not too expensive for you :)
18:58 gmcharlt    flat fee for flight, so I'm not paying by the bit ;)
18:58 slef        is that satellite or what?
18:59 slef        I can't even get stable internet from uktrain - although the spanish AVE worked well at 300kph
19:00 gmcharlt    slef: not sure - provided by aircell.com, but website didn't immediately say how they're doing it
19:01 slef        BrianT: any problems installing the database?
19:01 gmcharlt    slef: looks like terrestial, not sat
19:01 BrianT      not that I know of
19:02 BrianT      I could try installing it again though
19:02 pianohacker BrianT: If you run DESCRIBE borrowers, does the borrowernumber line have AUTO_INCREMENT on it?
19:02 slef        can you open it in mysql or phpmyadmin?
19:02 slef        then look at the borrowers table like pianohacker suggests :)
19:03 chris       id check the apache error log too
19:03 chris       see if there is an error being thrown
19:03 slef        good move - look near the end of koha-error_log
19:04 BrianT      I'm still  getting used to Webmin (yes I know,  I have gui guilt) can I search for it that way?
19:05 slef        I don't know webmin. Can you get mysql open that way?
19:05 slef        However you do it, you want to look at the properties of the borrowernumber field in the borrowers table/relation
19:05 slef        gmcharlt: can you remember what causes borrowernumber=0?
19:05 gmcharlt    slef: been a while since I've seen it - problem with autoincrement would be my first guess
19:07 slef        @bbc5live football commentary "I don't know what the point is of Andorra"
19:07 munin       slef: downloading the Perl source
19:07 wizzyrea    webmin = servers -> mysql -> open the koha db
19:07 BrianT      yes I can go through webmin
19:07 wizzyrea    then show tables
19:08 pianohacker wizzyrea++, I don't have any experience with webmin
19:08 wizzyrea    it gives me gui guilt as well
19:08 wizzyrea    i really needed it a couple of years ago, before I learned the command line tools
19:09 wizzyrea    but haven't needed it much lately
19:09 wizzyrea    sometimes it's super useful, however
19:09 BrianT      I don't see a show tables option
19:10 wizzyrea    1s, I'll try to get a screenshot
19:10 gmcharlt    if webmin has a file browser, may be able to look at the Apache logs as well
19:10 slef        hey, I use control panels a lot... just not webmin because it doesn't seem to make life much easier :)
19:10 BrianT      :)
19:10 BrianT      I don't see any tables listed should there be?
19:11 wizzyrea    so you've selected the db
19:11 wizzyrea    do you see the lil green folders?
19:11 BrianT      yes I'm inside koha
19:11 slef        moving to laptop biab
19:11 wizzyrea    do you see the borrowers table?
19:11 wizzyrea    folder = table
19:12 BrianT      I can even get to borrowernumber under dropdown
19:12 BrianT      default value is set to null
19:13 BrianT      correction in borrower_attributes
19:14 slef        wrong one
19:14 BrianT      ah
19:14 slef        you are in a mazy of twisty tables, all slightly different
19:14 slef        need to be in borrowers and check borrowernumber there
19:14 slef        see if it says auto_increment
19:14 slef        or something like that
19:15 BrianT      oh and I just read too many tables to display so I need to search
19:15 BrianT      ok
19:15 BrianT      yes it does
19:17 wizzyrea    (this is where I get fuzzy, i dont' know the koha innards that well, not as well as others here)
19:17 BrianT      I can do some reading on the autoincriment, thanks
19:18 pianohacker If the database is set up correctly, then it's probably a problem elsewhere; do you know where the Koha error log is?
19:18 BrianT      no
19:18 pianohacker Let me see where your tutorial would have put it
19:21 pianohacker Hmm, if I'm understanding this correctly, it should be under /var/log/koha/; do you have a file browser in webmin ?
19:22 BrianT      no but I think I can get there with the terminal
19:25 BrianT      oooooooooooookkkkkkk  lots of errors
19:25 gmcharlt    BrianT: cool, copy the last 50 lines or so into pastebin.com and give us the URL it spits back
19:26 BrianT      k just sec
19:26 gmcharlt    well, not cool that there are errors, but we'll fix those ... you know what I mean ;)
19:28 BrianT      http://pastebin.com/d362cf138
19:28 BrianT      first time to use pastebin. . . I like :)
19:28 pianohacker Ahh, there's the ticket. For some reason, the patron's home branch is not set in the borrower addition screen
19:29 pianohacker Most of the rest is just search debugging info that really ought to be cleaned up
19:29 wizzyrea    oh, right, you have to set up a library before you can add patrons
19:29 BrianT      ah that must be the reason I'm getting a null drop down box for branch in several places
19:29 gmcharlt    BrianT: exactly
19:30 BrianT      is that within koha or done at install?
19:30 wizzyrea    depends, did you install the demo libraries?
19:30 wizzyrea    if not, it's in the administration area
19:30 pianohacker Yup. There's some sample data in the Koha installation directory you can load in (under installer/data/mysql/en/optional/, it's just SQL you can copy and run), or you can just add some libraries under Administration
19:31 BrianT      the one option I didn'
19:31 BrianT      install because I'm a single branch
19:32 BrianT      got it thanks guys--
19:32 pianohacker BrianT: Then all you have to do is add one branch under Administration (with a branchcode of MAIN or something similar)
19:33 BrianT      yep-- ok, I have definitely been skooled ;)
19:33 pianohacker @karma yep
19:33 munin       pianohacker: Karma for "yep" has been increased 0 times and decreased 1 time for a total karma of -1.
19:34 pianohacker :)
19:34 BrianT      heh
19:36 pianohacker Anything else we can help with?
19:36 BrianT      Anything I can do for you guys? thank-you-- I can give, pay it forward, etc?
19:37 gmcharlt    BrianT: pay it forward
19:37 pianohacker i.e., stay up late and answer questions from people in far-off time zones
19:38 chris       heh
19:38 BrianT      hehe
19:38 BrianT      thanks again
19:46 rhcl        Ah, this must have been what nahuel was talking about earlier. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/06/11/technology/internet/11net.html?ref=business
19:47 chris       nice work slef, wizzyrea, gmcharlt and pianohacker
19:47 chris       team_koha++
19:48 chris       ohh that is good news rhcl
19:48 chris       thats nz and france now, that the RIAA and its cronies have been defeated
19:48 chris       wonder where they will try next
19:49 gmcharlt    try to turn the thumbscrews even tighter in the US, I wouldn't wonder
19:51 rhcl        It's my sense that the tide, however slight, is against them.
19:51 chris       i hope you are right
19:52 chris       i think they fit the dead white males tag quite well
19:52 chris       and hopefully the tide is against them the world over :)
19:54 rhcl        You know, I just don't think the RIAA fought this war very smartly. They have come across as the bad guy, when they probably could have achieved some of their goals in a much more consumer-friendly way.
19:54 gmcharlt    ecorrado++ # wiki updates
19:55 chris       rhcl: you are very right
19:55 chris       ohhh

20:10 wizzyrea    koha really ought to spit back "you need to set up a library before doing this" when a situation like BrianT's comes up
20:15 ryan        wizzyrea: agreed -- if there's not already a bug for that, it'd be good to have one.
20:18 wizzyrea    i'll look and see
20:18 jmr         Hello from PTFS
20:18 wizzyrea    if there's a bug
20:18 wizzyrea    hiya
20:18 chris       hiya jmr
20:18 jmr         I need to address something that was just said on this listserv in absolute error, about pTFS
20:18 chris       you just missed jwagner
20:19 atz         wizzyrea: there's just too many places that depend on branch existing
20:19 jmr         Bottom line my understanding, which could be incorretc is that we were accused of making legal threats
20:19 wizzyrea    atz: welp... i guess that's why we have many eyes on it :P
20:19 chris       we should do nicer error messages in general tho, we fail silently a bit to much eh?
20:20 wizzyrea    but I can appreciate that it's a lot to fix

21:28 wizzyrea    is there a better license than creative commons for koha documentation?
21:28 wizzyrea    (i'm sure there are opinions here... and I'm preparing to duck)
21:28 chris       ahh we talked about this for the wiki 2 secs
21:29 wizzyrea    I was going to do CC BY-NC-SA
21:29 wizzyrea    attribute:non-commercial:share-alike
21:30 chris       http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=relicensing
21:31 wizzyrea    Ohhh yea
21:31 wizzyrea    hmm
21:31 wizzyrea    hehe, someone in #kohakansas just suggested setting up a bot to answer common koha questions
21:31 wizzyrea    like "I've just installed, but searching doesn't work"
21:33 wizzyrea    well I probably should license it with the GPL
21:33 wizzyrea    considering
21:43 wizzyrea    Think I'll use GNU FDL (free documentation license)
21:53 chris       someone didnt like that, and i cant remember why
21:54 wizzyrea    bah, well if something better or different comes up, I'll change it
21:54 wizzyrea    but my brain's not big enough to see a problem with it
21:54 wizzyrea    so it stays for now
22:04 chris       ttp://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/2009-May/018246.html
22:05 chris       http://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/2009-May/018246.html
22:05 chris       even
22:06 wizzyrea    but they don't say what the problems *are*
22:06 chris       yeah
22:06 wizzyrea    it's all well and good to say "no, that's not compatible" but you have to say WHY
22:06 wizzyrea    to convince me, anyway
22:06 chris       yep
22:07 wizzyrea    ultimately I"ll probably change it to gpl, just to be compatible
22:07 wizzyrea    but, it's time to pick up spud
22:07 wizzyrea    so ttyl
22:07 wizzyrea    :)
22:07 chris       cya later
23:16 mugwump     hi, I've got a problem with my koha instance, for some reason no searches are working - eg, following the "Author" link from a link doesn't work.
23:16 mugwump     I traced the database statements, and no search commands were issued
23:19 mugwump     (what I mean is I didn't see my search terms in the issued SQL)
23:20 slef        mugwump: zebra or NoZebra installation?
23:20 mugwump     that's an interesting lead
23:21 mugwump     I need to update zebra huh
23:21 slef        just if it's a zebra-using koha, you won't see search terms in the issued SQL
23:21 mugwump     indeed
23:21 slef        because they'll be sent to zebra
23:21 slef        try searching your zebra with yaz-client
23:22 slef        I emailed some notes on how to a month or so ago
23:22 slef        I think it's start yaz-client, then auth username password, then open localhost:9990, then f searchterm
23:22 slef        but I'm not at work just now
23:22 mugwump     hmm, no zebra daemon running
23:22 slef        that'd break stuff
23:23 mugwump     silently, in this case
23:23 slef        yeah, I'm a bit surprised about this, but I've seen it on other servers
23:23 slef        koha should die screaming if zebra isn't answering when it should be
23:23 mugwump     sorry for asking simple questions, I'm a substitute admin ... how's it normally started in a typical installation?  no rc script here
23:24 slef        as a temporary fix, zebrasrv -f /etc/koha-conf.xml (or whatever your KOHA_CONF is)
23:24 slef        I think
23:24 slef        again, I'm not at work just now
23:24 slef        only popped in to shut down my workstation
23:25 slef        hehe
23:25 mugwump     thanks, that's a massive help :)
23:26 slef        wizzyrea_away: http://mjr.towers.org.uk/blog/2006/fdl
23:28 chris       mugwump: im on leave at home at the moment or id come down and give you a hand :)
23:28 mugwump     chris: come down?  I'm UP
23:28 mugwump     top of Mt Vic :)
23:29 chris       ahh, i mean level 2 or 3 or wherever you normally sit :)
23:29 mugwump     :)
23:29 mugwump     hmm I need to run zebraidx... it's not as simple as starting the server
23:30 slef        look in the README for reindex
23:30 slef        there's a perl script to help
23:30 slef        or maybe the INSTALL
23:30 slef        I'm tiiiired
23:30 chris       rebuild_zebra.pl is the one
23:30 chris       checkout INSTALL.debian
23:31 slef        rebuild not reindex, right
23:32 chris       :)
23:35 mugwump     alrighty ... search results returned
23:36 chris       sweet
23:36 chris       what version are you running mugwump?
23:40 chris       ok, me has to head out
23:44 mugwump     3.0.0-beta
23:45 mugwump     oh, actually the tarball doesn't think it was a beta, but the readme did
23:45 mugwump     strange, the zebra running from the init script doesn't seem to work.  running it as root did... hmm
23:47 mugwump     ah, looks like a simple issue
23:51 mason       prolly user-permission related...
23:52 mason       ie: only 'koha' user has access perms to the *.db files
23:53 mugwump     yeah, because I ran them as root... fixed :)
23:53 mason       yeah, a common mistake by me too ;)
23:53 mugwump     I guess I should test the queue daemon ... eg adding an item and check it shows in searched
00:07 mason       mugwump: gimme a ping if you need a hand...
02:41 slef        I'll buy you a diamond ring my friend if it makes you feel alright. I'll get you anything my friend if it makes you feel alright 'Cause I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love.
02:41 slef        I'll give you all I got to give if you say you love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love
02:41 slef        Say you don't need no diamond ring and I'll be satisfied. Tell me that you want the kind of thing that money just can't buy. I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love.

06:40 munin       brendan: 8.7 degrees Celsius = 47.66 degrees Fahrenheit
06:41 magnusenger Well, I can only speak for Bodø... We have +12,5 C, no wind to speak of and a gradient of clouds ranging from clear blue sky at one end to grey at the other. And we have the knowledge that the very first Norwegian library has decided to convert from a proprietary system to Koha!
06:49 brendan     yay about the library
06:57 magnusenger Indeed! It's an academic library with two librarians, but it's a very promising start, methinks
07:04 elwell      indeed
07:18 chris       woo hoo thats excellent
07:18 chris       magnusenger: how far away from Bjørga are you?
07:18 chris       my ex girlfriend now lives there with her norwegian husband :)
07:19 magnusenger chris: not sure, where's Bjørga? *Running off to Google maps*
07:20 chris       11 hours away by car apparently
07:20 chris       :)
07:22 chris       my parents have visited norway, and say its very beautiful, its on my list of places to visit, maybe some day i can visit the koha library there :)
07:23 magnusenger about 370 kilometers, according to Google Earth
07:23 magnusenger hopefully there will be more than one in the not too distant future, too!
07:24 Kivutar     hello all!
07:24 magnusenger we are planning a conference on libraries and FOSS in november, but i'm afraid the main language will be norwegian
07:25 chris       that doesnt give me much time to learn hehe
07:25 chris       maybe next time :)
07:25 chris       hello Kivutar  :)
07:28 nicomo      hi all

11:39 chris       heya jwagner
11:39 chris       find that movie yet?
11:43 jwagner     Sorry, was off on another screen.  Haven't gotten my hands on a copy of it yet, but I've seen the preview on Amazon.  Gonna have to track it down!
11:43 chris       i have it on vhs .. but its PAL not ntsc
11:43 jwagner     I'm not sure how buying downloadable movies from Amazon works -- whether I can keep replaying, transfer to DVD, whatever.
11:43 chris       hmm yeah good question
11:44 jwagner     I have to get my friend scouring the darker reaches of the net -- it must be out there somewhere.  He is good at finding things....
11:45 chris       :-)
11:45 jwagner     Just reread my collection over the weekend.  Hadn't read them in a while -- lots of fun.

11:54 jwagner     Now that is silly :-)  But very good.  What are those instruments that look like flutes with a 90 degree angle?
