So it should not be too much of a burden to take it. 19:23 hdl_laptop ) 19:23 hdl_laptop I have pushed some more things on CodeRunBase you can see that on koha-biblibre.git (branch master 19:23 gmcharlt at this point, before the Koha meeting next week 19:23 hdl_laptop I wondered if you had any schedule for integration of this branch ? 19:22 gmcharlt ok 19:22 hdl_laptop I have pushed some more things on CodeRunBase you can see that on koha-biblibre.git 19:20 gmcharlt hdl_laptop: yep 19:20 hdl_laptop gmcharlt: around ? 19:15 jdavidb There is silly, and there is clueless. 19:15 pianohacker man should have a sense of humor; only thing that'll keep him from going insane 19:15 * jdavidb nods. 19:14 owen To this nerd, there's a good silly and a not-so-good silly 19:13 * jdavidb was about to say, "When did we last see a President doing something silly like that," then remembers Dubya holding the flag up *backwards* during the Beijing Olympics, and decides to say nothing... 19:12 pianohacker whoom 19:11 * jdavidb pulls out his blue plastic light saber, and duels like the President. 19:10 owen I thought nerds fought with flashlights while making light saber noises. 19:09 * nicomo_laptop goes to bed, have a good day all 19:02 wizzyrea nerd fight, fighting nerds, they don't use fists, they use words! 18:59 * chris goes to catch his bus 18:57 nicomo_laptop I have time before she's a teenager 18:57 chris yup :) 18:57 nicomo_laptop but at 5, taht rules 18:57 nicomo_laptop yeah 18:57 chris :) 18:57 chris of course once she is a teenager, it wont be fun anymore "GO TO SCHOOL!!!!" 18:56 chris heh that rules :) 18:56 nicomo_laptop sunday morning I had to wake her up at 9:30am because we were going to meet friends 18:55 nicomo_laptop boy do I love her 18:55 nicomo_laptop my daughter likes to sleep so much she doesn't care one way or the other 18:54 * owen hates the DST bedtime issue as well 18:54 nicomo_laptop basically :-) 18:54 nicomo_laptop anything that could did 18:54 chris what went wrong? 18:54 * chris hopes so too 18:54 chris hehe, yeah just makes it harder to get the kid to go to bed "but the sun is shining" 18:54 nicomo_laptop let's hope tomorrow's better 18:54 nicomo_laptop I have to say I had a wretched day 18:53 * nicomo_laptop never quite understood those 18:53 nicomo_laptop ah, yes 18:53 chris daylight savings started on sunday 18:53 nicomo_laptop ok 18:53 chris nearly 8am 18:53 nicomo_laptop 9pm here 18:53 nicomo_laptop What time is it? 18:53 nicomo_laptop up already? 18:52 nicomo_laptop hi chris 18:52 chris hi nicomo_laptop 18:45 pianohacker hahaha 18:45 joetho Geek Wars! a new reality show idea. 18:45 pianohacker owen: yes, that would be nice. The current restriction seems a bit much 18:44 pianohacker joetho: hah, not at all, just some other geek that got angry at me and flailed at me for a bit 18:44 owen What I really want is the ability to delete a biblio with items attached from the normal view. 18:43 pianohacker Anyway. owen: it seems to me like you'd normally want to delete after looking at the normal or marc views, but I could be wrong 18:43 joetho you? pianohacker, in a fight? I would pay money to have witnessed that. I hope you didn't actually get punched, though... 18:41 * jdavidb put a horseshoe into *one* of the three boxing gloves. Y'all figure out which. 18:41 pianohacker So keep your money :) 18:41 pianohacker The last time I got into a fight, it was far more ridiculous than threatening 18:38 * jdavidb opens up the betting windows. 18:37 pianohacker Yeah I got a problem with your workflow bub 18:37 * jdavidb hands owen and pianohacker boxing gloves. Just one, for pianohacker. 18:36 pianohacker hehe 18:36 wizzyrea ooh, I love it when Owen gets all uppity. 18:34 * owen blusters 18:34 owen Hey man you got a problem with my workflow? 18:34 pianohacker Probably. also, it doesn't seem like a very typical workflow 18:33 cait_laptop thx for your help and bye :) 18:33 owen Hmmm... Why is there no delete button on addbiblio.pl? Maybe because the page doesn't know whether there are items attached? 18:32 cait_laptop have to catch my bus now - quiz night at local irish pub with colleagues 18:32 cait_laptop I will add a bug report later and correct it 18:32 cait_laptop you helped me with it, so maybe :) 18:32 owen Maybe that's what I'm thinking of 18:31 cait_laptop I did a patch for this text on list interface 18:30 owen These look familiar though, like there was a patch recently for it. It may already be in line for 3.2 18:30 owen Line 87 should be $("#tagsel_tag").text(_("Tag")); 18:30 owen Line 81 should more correctly read $(".hold").text(_("Place Hold")); 18:29 cait_laptop Tag is also not translatable 18:29 owen There are a few untranslatable strings in there I see 18:29 cait_laptop yeah, I know ;) 18:29 owen Yeah, it's a bug 18:29 cait_laptop embedded 18:28 pianohacker cait_laptop: embedded js or external file? 18:28 cait_laptop in javascript part 18:28 cait_laptop opac-basket 18:28 pianohacker ahh 18:28 owen cait_laptop: Where is that? 18:28 jdavidb I am missing it *now*, pianohacker; just recently shaved my face, after wearing a goatee for 20 years. The whole-beard thing you saw in April was less than a year old. 18:28 cait_laptop ok _ does not work 18:27 jwagner owen, out of my meeting. I tried the $("a.addtocart").html("Add to Book Bag"); but it's still refusing to change the wording on that one spot. Sigh. 18:27 cait_laptop $(".hold").text_("Place Hold"); ? 18:27 * cait_laptop found another untranslatable string 18:27 pianohacker jdavidb: I think you're missing the necessary goatee 18:27 jwagner But we Knew That! 18:27 * jdavidb is the evil twin. 18:25 jdavidb Ah. Rats. 18:25 Colin The cloning failed it was just my evil twin 18:25 chris_n lol 18:25 jdavidb I'd just let my clones each become subject-matter experts, and we could do trainings in relays. :P 18:24 jdavidb Need to make sure the protocol is not too lossy. 18:23 * jdavidb shudders 18:23 owen Maybe through iTunes? 18:23 owen I'll take a clone if there's a way to sync our brains after we've been apart. 18:22 chris_n on second thought: $alter_ego = $self->clone(number => $number_needed, improvements => @a_whole_array_of_them) 18:21 chris_n $alter_ego = $self->clone($number_needed) 18:20 pianohacker hmm, I need to talk to him; I need one me for school, and one to work on the poor, neglected sysprefs editor 18:18 jdavidb I'm pleased as punch, if there are two. The one we had already is a top-shelf colleague. Writes good code, great to work with, and (apparently) never sleeps. 18:17 owen Sure, that's how chris_n got the labels system upgraded 18:15 jdavidb Two Colins? Wow. Maybe PTFS Europe has solved the degredation problem in cloning--bet both of them are wizards with the code! 18:14 cait_laptop thx! 18:13 cait_laptop owen: works great (as always :) ) 18:10 chris yes, i think it would be a hard game for him if he played 18:09 paul_p I think he could be selected, but, seeing the buzz in NZ, I wouldn't be surprised if the french federations decided not to call him... 18:09 cait_laptop give me 2 minutes to try :) 18:09 cait_laptop I have used some of your tricks to kill some fields in memberentry before 18:09 chris paul_p: ahhh ok 18:09 owen cait_laptop: Do you know where to plug that in? 18:08 paul_p chris: dunno, he can continue doing his job and to the GIW on spare time. 18:08 chris s/with/when/ 18:08 owen $("optgroup[label='EnglishLabel']").attr("label","Translation"); 18:08 owen cait_laptop: An example: 18:07 chris paul_p: so he wont be playing with NZ play France in Marseille ? 18:07 cait_laptop owen: thx a lot! 18:07 paul_p chris: M. Bastareaud just sentenced to do 18 "general interest works for the amatteur rugby", before june 2010 18:06 owen give me a moment and I'll give it a try 18:06 cait_laptop so an interim solution would be nice 18:05 cait_laptop our librarian is a little unhappy about it 18:04 owen As an interim solution while you're waiting for proper translation? I think so--at least for your javascript-enabled users 18:03 cait_laptop seeing owen using jquery for renaming things - would this work for optgroups in sort by pull down too? 18:02 cait_laptop chris: ok :) I will wait. 17:59 owen That works for me in both places 17:59 owen $("a.addtocart").html("Add to Book Bag"); 17:59 chris cait_laptop: yeah i think its a little tricky to do 17:58 jwagner Gotta run to a meeting -- back in a bit. 17:58 owen Oh right, sorry 17:57 jwagner Under each title in the results list, where it says Actions, there's an Add to Your Cart link, and the jquery changed that to Bookbag OK. It just won't do it on the detail page in that box to the right-hand side. 17:57 cait_laptop chris: so its more complicated? I hoped I could do it 17:55 owen jwagner: an add to cart link in the results list? That's a drop-down menu. 17:55 chris cait_laptop: we will fix that for 3.2.0 17:55 jwagner And I just started letting my hair grow out, too. Maybe I should get it cut again.... 17:55 chris :) 17:55 chris quick and out of my hair now = omg what is stuck in my hair in 3 months time 17:54 cait_laptop how to make this show up in po-file? <optgroup label="Dates"> 17:54 cait_laptop speaking of translation... 17:54 jwagner I'll have to look into translations at some point, but right now I'm trying for "quick and out of my hair".... 17:54 chris http://translate.koha.org/en_USACADEMIC/ something like that 17:54 jwagner No, there's an add to cart link in the results list -- that one changed OK. 17:53 chris jwagner: the translation way is the most portable way 17:53 owen Is that the other place you're referring to? 17:53 owen jwagner: the "add to cart" link on the detail page is very different from the "add to cart" button in the search bar 17:52 jwagner For this particular site, since I have a lot of other customizations, I may just do it as a template change. Not the best solution, but if I can't make the jquery work I might go for the easy solution :-) 17:51 jwagner Both of the places I'm trying to change start with <a class=addtocart and one works/other doesn't. 17:50 joetho I wonder about stuff like this (cart vs bookbag) and all the translations. 17:50 chris you only have to translate the words you want different 17:50 jdavidb chris: That's where you have all your extra U and S characters, right? ;-) 17:50 * owen agrees with chris that this seems the logical way to do it 17:50 jwagner But it puzzles me why this same code works on another site & does replace that particular label. 17:50 chris changes catalog to catalogue, check out to issue etc 17:50 chris for both opac and intranet 17:49 chris eg, i have en_NZ 17:49 * jdavidb groans. Gettin' deep in here. 17:49 owen joetho: Oh great, thanks :| 17:49 chris is to use the translation tools 17:49 joetho owen changes nickname to cartman 17:49 chris the best way to do it 17:49 pianohacker *rimshot* 17:49 owen There are too many places where the word "Cart" is used to be able to do this cleanly. 17:49 jwagner Bookworms? 17:48 owen Changing Cart to Bookbag is a huge can of worms. Cart of worms? 17:48 jwagner }); 17:48 jwagner $("a.addtocart").html("Add to Your Bookbag"); 17:48 jwagner Here's what I'm using -- can you see the problem? $(document).ready(function(){ 17:47 jwagner owen, another question for you, though. Trying to use jquery to rename Add to Your Cart to Add to Your Bookbag. I've done it before & it worked, but this time (latest Koha if that matters) it's replacing it one place but not on the box at upper right of an OPAC record display (Print, Add to Your Cart, More Searches). The label looks the same. 17:46 jwagner owen, yes favicon is now working (after severe Firefox armtwisting). 17:46 chris excellent 17:45 cait_laptop chris: wrote to German translation mailing list that I will edit po-files locally till saturday. beda says its ok and I think he is the only other who can approve suggestions. 17:38 chris paul_p: thanks for the linkedin recommendation :) 17:37 * owen has always found favicons difficult to test because of caching issues 17:37 cait_laptop good evening jdavidb 17:37 owen jwagner: Did you get your favicon sorted out? 17:37 jdavidb Good evening, paul_p, and cait_laptop. :) 17:37 sekjal good <localtime> to everyone 17:37 brendan well then -- good evening paul_p 17:36 paul_p morning to everyone that is at morning time (for me, it's 7:35PM ;-) ) 17:36 brendan :) 17:36 chris_n heya brendan 17:36 cait_laptop morning chris 17:36 brendan morning #koha 17:35 jdavidb Howdy, chris! :) 17:35 sekjal that clears things up immensely 17:35 sekjal thank you all 17:35 sekjal wow 17:35 chris morning 17:35 chris_n g'morning chris 17:35 * chris_n thinks not even *paid* support responds faster ;-) 17:34 chris *snap* 17:34 chris_n sekjal: from the root of your git clone run a dev install 17:34 chris sekjal: the difference is, doing a dev install 17:34 cait_laptop sekjal: you want to make a dev install? 17:31 sekjal what about the Makefile? 17:31 sekjal its just the two different directories that are throwing me. should my server be looking at the directory I pulled from Git? 17:28 jwagner I'm going to have to let one of the pros answer that. I would think that different branches should work except perhaps where it modifies the database, but I'm pretty fuzzy on specifics. 17:25 sekjal saying that, it really seems like I'm missing something 17:25 sekjal yes, indeed. but if the code is in one arrangement on git, and another when installed, then to get my server to recognize code, I'd have to install/upgrade each time 17:23 jwagner I'm the lowliest novice on git, but for testing new features, shouldn't you be able to create a new branch for them? 17:22 sekjal jwagner: ok 17:21 jwagner Hmmm. Following up on the favicon, for our git install, the image seems to need to go into koha-tmpl, koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/includes, and koha-tmpl/opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes. We have multiple instances on this machine, and the Koha install doesn't look at /usr/share at all. 17:13 sekjal originally tarball, but I upgraded from git 17:13 jwagner Are you a git install or a tarball install? 17:12 sekjal I've been trying to get my institutional development plan drafted up, and I think that this whole thing implies we'll have to reinstall/upgrade every time we want to test a newly coded feature 17:11 sekjal to me, at least 17:11 sekjal its confusing 17:10 sekjal at least, that's where it winds up when I installed it 17:10 sekjal but i think the 'live' version that the server recognizes is at /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs/...../en/includes 17:09 sekjal right 17:09 jwagner (Sorry -- etc. in the sense of et cetera, not a directory named etc) 17:08 jwagner It's there in the git install, which is what I'm working from -- kohaclone/koha-tmpl/etc. 17:08 sekjal I don't think that the koha-tmpl directory exists anywhere in the installed tree 17:07 sekjal the code has two different directory structures: one for how it's distributed, and another when its installed 17:06 chris_n adobe++ #for being helpful on a FOSS project 17:06 sekjal or run 'make upgrade' 17:06 sekjal I think you need to put the favicon in /opac/htdocs/opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes 17:05 jwagner sekjal, not sure what you mean there. 17:05 * chris_n actually gets a response to a question about unicode, diacriticals, and pdf from a pdf platform architect at Adobe.... wow! 17:04 sekjal jwagner: I think koha-tmpl only occurs in the code as it's bundled, not as it's installed. 17:02 jwagner Does anyone know where to put a customized favicon.ico image? I tried putting it in koha-tmpl (where there was an existing one), but it's not showing up. I've cleared my browser cache and refreshed the page with no luck. Do you have to do anything else to get it to work? 16:38 kf bye #koha :) 15:57 kf made a typo in logo, now photoshop tells me .psd-file is broken *wants to cry* 15:56 kf photoshop-- 15:43 wizzyrea oh yea that was hilarious 15:04 owen wizzyrea: I loved the one of yours crashed on the bedroom floor 15:03 jwagner I used to work with mad scientists.... At a safe distance, of course :-) 14:59 valczir_work jdavidb: it's all over the 'net 14:57 jdavidb valczir_work: How'd you get that picture of my office? :P 14:56 valczir_work jwagner: I have a picture in my head of a mad scientist hiding behind a thick wall, eyes poking over the top, carefully reaching over the wall to drip some substance into another one 14:50 jwagner Including me. 14:49 Colin at which point we all hide 14:49 jwagner And at some point I may have to do some development for COSATI with Koha. 14:49 wizzyrea Hil. ar. i. ous. 14:49 wizzyrea omg. have you guys seen the pics of chris's kid dressed up as a punk? 14:49 jwagner It's not in the "hands" of the government, but it was government librarians who developed it. Even Worse! 14:48 Colin yes formats in the hands of the government, that's really scary 14:48 jwagner Awk! 14:48 jdavidb Chicken. 14:48 jwagner jdavidb, I'm not gonna comment. I'm not gonna comment. I'm not gonna comment.... 14:47 * jdavidb would say that MARC has driven him insane, but that presumes he was sane in the first place. 14:47 jwagner Colin, if you REALLY want to go crazy, try working with COSATI format. Non-MARC, used primarily for U.S. govt research documents, and hideous in all regards. 14:46 Colin I think over the years I've learnt more about various MARCs than is compatible with sanity 14:42 jwagner Still trying to forget that experience.... 14:42 kf cant top that 14:41 jwagner Speaking of bad dreams, many years ago I was managing the migration from an old ILS to Unicorn. That meant I had to learn a _lot_ about MARC and other data in a hurry. By the end of that migration, I was dreaming in MARC record format. That's REALLY traumatic for a non-librarian..... 14:41 jdavidb Sure it's probably a nice place and all, since one of my favorite people is *from* there...but...probably not for me. 14:40 jwagner Probably not..... 14:40 jdavidb Not even, jwagner. You know where that upcoming trip is--can you *imagine* me moving there? 14:39 jwagner jdavidb, tired of us already????? 14:36 jdavidb I had one last week where a training trip to a customer site (which, I *do* have upcoming) turned into a permanent change of duty station. They ponied the money to have me full-time on their stuff. 14:34 kf I m an expert in koha nightmares - will be glad when our library is finally live 14:34 jdavidb That would be a nightmare! 14:33 wizzyrea kf: thanks. :) 14:33 * kf gives wizzyrea some virtual chocolate 14:32 * kf spent hours yesterday searching bug in my code to find out I forgot to update German templates 14:32 wizzyrea I think I had nightmares about vendor specific koha last night 14:31 wizzyrea it's going ok :) 14:31 jdavidb Seems likely. Computers don't often *make* errors on their own; track back a couple of steps, and you find a programmer who goofed. Human Error. 14:29 kf i think its the most-common problem in every business 14:26 jdavidb I try to code around that problem; enforce things with the code, or make so the admin can. But you can't do that for everything. 14:26 jdavidb That's just one of the perils of being in the IT business, kf. The most-common problem in most IT is the one that exists between the keyboard and the chair. 14:24 kf jdavidb: the problem is you have to repeat it too often 14:21 * jdavidb has no problem telling users, "Then Don't Do That." 14:21 owen Hi wizzyrea, how's it going? 14:19 wizzyrea j/k 14:19 wizzyrea ;)_ 14:19 wizzyrea ooh, harsh 14:17 owen Yeah, that's what I figure too. 14:16 jwagner On Their Own Heads Be It! 14:16 owen Handy stuff. You just have to worry now about your users who surf the web with stylesheets turned off ;) 14:15 jwagner owen, just used that display: none trick for something completely different. Thanks -- I can cross that mod off my list :-) 14:11 valczir_work hey, owen 14:11 owen Hi valczir_work 14:09 jwagner Yes, he's done several nifty features for us. 14:05 * owen is happy to hear about Kyle doing work for PTFS. The more [paid] programmers the merrier! 13:33 kf I have a lot of other tickets so that I can procrastinate this for a while ;) 13:30 owen I've forgotten what little I knew about the ISBD formatting syntax. 13:29 kf librarian likes isbd - but found mistakes in it she wants me to correct. 13:28 * owen did the same to hide ISBD in his catalog 13:26 kf will do :) your css worked like a charm - librarian will be happy 13:25 owen I think it's worth filing a bug, though. There ought to be an OPAC version of the preferences you saw 13:24 owen For both: "#MARCview, #MARCviewPop { display: none; }" 13:24 kf owen: thx! thats really easy and nothing I thought of! 13:23 owen kf, you could add "#MARCview { display:none; }" to your stylesheet (or to your OpacUserCSS pref) 13:19 kf is there an easy way to not show marc and expanded marc view in opac? I found sys prefs for staff, but not for opac. 13:08 jwagner OK, I won't do anything along those lines myself then. 13:01 owen I may not have submitted the one for the OPAC yet, merging the message lists, can't remember. 13:00 owen I submitted some on Friday 13:00 jwagner Agreed :-) I think you're working on patches for the display suggestions you made, correct? 12:59 owen kyle++ 12:58 owen Awesome. 12:57 jwagner owen, Kyle Hall just sent a patch to allow superlibrarians to delete messages from any branch. 12:57 jwagner Morning, all 12:54 chris_n g'morning 12:51 Colin Hi 12:51 owen Hi 12:51 jdavidb Hiya, owen and Colin. :) 11:51 |Lupin| nice to see you online ! 11:51 |Lupin| hi Nicole ! 10:20 kf cool 10:16 chris my father did his degree in russian, with french and german minors, so he reads to him :) (He is a licensed translator and interpreter for Maori too) 10:15 chris he has books in german, french, maori and english 10:11 kf chris: dont know that one - does kahurangi learn German? :) 09:53 chris kf: http://photos.bigballofwax.co.nz/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=71249&g2_serialNumber=1 <-- like the book on the right? 09:53 |Lupin| chris: ooooops ! 09:50 chris s/darcs/git/ :) 09:47 |Lupin| chris: ah, maybe the 0001 was un old file that shold have been deleted... after deleting 000* and re-runningdarcs format-patch origin, everything seems to be fine 09:46 |Lupin| chris: yeah this one is displayed in git log 09:35 chris thats the last commit in the master branch 09:35 chris http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=commit;h=2889603e0eb98980ed74d8ed678069ee823feed5 09:34 chris hmmm 09:32 |Lupin| chris: the commit name for the old one is commit 2889603e0eb98980ed74d8ed678069ee823feed5 09:31 |Lupin| chris: no, the old one is 001 and the new one is 002 09:31 chris what number is it, both patches arent 0001 are they? 09:31 chris but if the patch had been accepted, then it would have not been made 09:31 |Lupin| chris: ok... so what should I do ? 09:30 chris a little bit different 09:30 chris a pull is a fetch + merge 09:29 |Lupin| chris: I think I fetched (git pull?) but perhaps the second part is missing ? 09:28 |Lupin| is there something else I shold do ? 09:28 |Lupin| I did a git pull before prepearing the patch.. 09:28 chris did you fetch and rebase before you created your patch? 09:28 |Lupin| so I think it shold already bi in master 09:28 |Lupin| but the other is a patch I had already submitted and which was accepted 09:27 |Lupin| one of them is a patch I'd like to submit so that's fine 09:27 |Lupin| and git created 2 files 09:27 |Lupin| I just did a git format-patch origin 09:27 |Lupin| hmm just in ase there are git experts aroun.. 09:17 |Lupin| guten morgen kf 09:10 kf hi lupin 09:09 |Lupin| hi 09:01 chris hi hdl_laptop 08:57 hdl_laptop chris ? 08:13 custard I'll head off now and make some notes for next time I try and run an update :| 08:04 custard Thanks mason. 08:04 custard Yes, something wrong with koha-conf. The upgrade over wrote it, and it's one of the few files so far that I've acutally changed. So, naturally, things broke once apache realised. 08:03 custard ok. functionally (but not elegantly) working koha again. And feeling sheepish about it too. 08:00 chris evening 07:40 mason at least - thats what i do with my apache conf bugs , when i get them :) 07:40 mason . 07:39 mason as its the only live one 07:39 mason very probably in yr koha's apache.conf file ;) 07:38 mason start simple, find the config goof 07:38 mason test with a index.html file in a dir 07:38 mason or edit your koha conf down to a simple 5 line hello-world test 07:37 mason comment out one of your vhost enteries , in yr apche conf 07:37 mason . 07:36 mason and im too busy now to switch to an install 07:36 mason so , i cant confirm your dir layout - i dont have a koha of that install-type to test with 07:33 mason ok, great 07:33 custard 3.000.02 (just caught up with current stable) 07:33 mason 3 dot something ? 07:32 mason yep, 3,2 - and yr versions is ? 07:32 custard That's 3.2, yes? 07:31 mason . 07:31 mason http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=tree;f=koha-tmpl;h=a3b39433a59d8c30e221b28f93dd26576d1604b2;hb=HEAD 07:31 custard and they're both not working. 07:31 custard ? 07:30 custard isn't that here: /usr/share/koha/intranet/htdocs/ 07:30 mason ok, so yr missing the internet-tmpl staff dirs :/ 07:30 custard opac-tmpl (and that's it) 07:29 mason wot u get? 07:29 mason ls -l /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs 07:29 custard this should be in DocumentRoot or one of the language localisations? 07:29 mason yep 07:29 mason ok, good... :) 07:29 custard index.html? 07:28 custard nup. even disabled default. 07:28 mason and lots of other stuff? 07:28 custard Ropouch: yep. 07:28 Ropuch Do you have koha in sites-enabled? 07:27 custard which currently says (and is what I'm sure I remember it saying) /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs 07:26 Ropuch UGh 07:26 Ropuch /etc/apache2/sites-available/koha: DocumentRoot /usr/share/koha/intranet/htdocs 07:26 Ropuch /etc/apache2/sites-available/koha: DocumentRoot /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs 07:26 Ropuch hm 07:26 mason and index.html etc... 07:25 mason should have your 'internet-tmpl' and 'opac-tmpl' dirs only 07:25 mason DocumentRoot /home/mason/git/kap-k3-3/koha-tmpl 07:24 mason check that line. 07:24 mason "so that probably means your 'DocumentRoot' line is wrong" 07:23 mason or, as i said before.... 07:23 mason i guess you've probably got another apache2 config file, thats overriding your koha one 07:19 custard sorry about that Mason, bit of a drop-out. I was about to say I can't see a reason for it wanting "/htdocs", and that /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs definitely exits and is accessible. 07:16 kf good morning :) 07:11 mason in your apache config ( in case you read the irc.log ) 07:11 mason so that probably means your 'DocumentRoot' line is wrong 07:10 mason right... 07:10 custard <mason> Just doen a fairly major round of updating. Last night I had a Koha that worked. This morning the apache log tells me that "File does note exist: /htdocs". 07:07 mason ive got 5mins custard :) 07:05 custard any body vaguely alert (and feeling up to some apache/koha interaction troubleshooting) ? 06:56 mason encoding - something, hmmmm.... 03:13 elpiddaketan i got some errors regarding encoding,, something 03:12 elpiddaketan i have problem in importing my data to koha, how will i do that, the records are from Readerware originally, i have the zip file of it 03:12 elpiddaketan i have problem in impoerting my data to koha, how will i do that, the records are from Readerware originally, i have the zip file of it 03:11 elpiddaketan hi everyone 02:47 chris_n^2 I think that the ability to patent a relatively abstract idea is not good 02:47 chris definitely 02:47 chris_n^2 I tend to agree with the thought that a copyright is more appropriate for software 02:46 chris_n^2 I was just reading an article on the difference between patent and copyright with regard to software 02:38 thd The weaker the software business has been in a country historically, the more likely that the country is to have opposition to software patents which are mostly supported by incumbent industries which have managed to use overly broad patents to.protect themselves from new competitors.. 02:26 thd chris_n^2: The presumption is in favour of the patent holder which is often against the defendant if that is how IRS courts work. 02:26 chris_n^2 heh: "What my firm has been seeing is that claims can be made allowable by inserting “computer implemented†into claims, sometimes even in the preamble. It does not seem that is what the Federal Circuit intended, but it is what is happening at least in some cases." 02:24 * chris_n^2 wonders if those courts are akin to irs courts :-( 02:23 thd chris_n^2: We have special patent courts where 'expert' judges adjudicate patent cases. Of course, such judges have an obvious bias. 02:22 chris_n^2 it never ceases to amaze me how judges seem to know everything about everything 02:21 thd We need some havoc in that domain but that is why the court will probably not make a broad ruling. 02:21 chris particularly ironic given that m$ just lost a patent case over xml 02:21 chris nzoss and others have challenged it 02:21 chris they tried patenting story documents as xml here 02:21 chris_n^2 s/ew/few/ 02:21 chris_n^2 "...ew really expected just how far reaching the decision would be and that it would call into question thousands of software patents granted over the last 10 to 15 years.: 02:21 chris yes, microsoft 02:20 chris_n^2 if the Supreme Court upholds that ruling it appears that it could work havoc in the software industry 02:20 thd chris: does NZ have patent trolls? 02:19 thd The long term low but real possibility of a lawsuit over a software patents is the best reason not to have any long term Koha foundation in the US. 02:15 chris or strengthened by another ruling? 02:14 chris_n^2 interesting 02:14 thd The hope is that the scope of patents over software in the US may be weakened by some possible ruling. 02:13 thd http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_re_Bilski 02:12 thd Bilski 02:12 chris_n^2 thd: which? 02:11 thd There is a case before the US Supreme Court which may change things in the US. 02:11 chris so it may all change 02:11 chris there is a bill going through parliament about patents now 02:10 chris not explicitly, doesnt explicity reject them either 02:10 thd chris: NZ still recognises software patents, does it not? 02:09 * chris_n^2 has been dragged kicking and screaming up the PDF standard learning curve :-P 02:05 chris awesome 02:00 chris_n^2 hopefully in time for our 3.2 release 02:00 chris_n^2 cool, PDF::Reuse maintainer says he'll include several enhancements I made in his next release latter next month 00:24 pianohacker ... and actually hit the funny little X
