I really like Wolfram Alpha 22:43 rhcl_in_an_out 11:41:14 am NZST | Wednesday, December 9, 2009 22:43 imp right 22:42 Ropuch It's about noon in NZ, isn't it? 22:41 rhcl_in_an_out chris should be on chat 22:41 munin rhcl_in_an_out: chris was last seen in #koha 2 hours, 25 minutes, and 5 seconds ago: <chris> thats what the lol was for :) 22:41 rhcl_in_an_out @seen chris 22:41 dreece Having issues importing records/holdings. 22:41 dreece Yeah.. me too. 22:40 Ropuch Have some trouble with patch sending 22:40 Ropuch I hope someone will show soon 22:28 dreece Thanks :) 22:28 dreece haha 22:28 Ropuch They always do when I'm going to sleep ;> 22:28 Ropuch I think some devs and experienced users will arrive soon 22:24 dreece Is there anyone that can help me figure out the process for moving from Infocentre to Koha? 22:23 Ropuch Hi 22:23 dreece Howdy! 21:31 Ropuch hm- fatal: patch contains a line longer than 998 characters 21:30 pie heh :) 21:30 pie help /win 36 21:20 Genji ah, im not quotable yet, oh well. 21:20 munin Genji: No matching quotes were found. 21:20 Genji @quote search genji 21:02 owen Hmmm... sample serials data. That would be nice too. 21:00 |Lupin| good night all 20:51 owen Koha already runs slow enough, may not be worth it. But it would solve my divergent git branches problem in a different way 20:50 wizzyrea owen: idk why not, as long as you duplicate your vbox settings on both machines. Though, the pc -> mac thing might be problematic 20:43 * jdavidb waves 20:43 jdavidb (I was running it on an Asus EEE with only 512MB of ram..possibly a contributing factor. :P ) 20:42 jdavidb It was slower than molasses, but it *ran*. 20:41 jdavidb :) 20:41 jdavidb virtualbox. 20:41 owen jdavidb: What VM software? 20:40 jdavidb yup. using a thumb as the filesystem for koha, and also on a virtual disk that was stored on a thumb drive. 20:40 jwagner jdavidb, didn't you do a Koha install on a thumb drive? 20:39 owen PC -> Mac, though 20:39 owen wizzyrea: I wondered if I could carry my vbox image on a thumb drive between work and home 20:38 cait 3 weeks in india, wow 20:38 wizzyrea mine seemed to be broken after moving the vbox image to a new computer 20:38 owen Thanks wizzyrea. I shut down this machine every night so I don't suppose I'll run into it. (Makes it hard to maintain a screen session on it ;) 20:37 wizzyrea dk why it was bustid but that fixed it 20:37 |Lupin| cait: will in two weeks I'll be away in India for three weeks, so if it's not done before it will have to wait till I'm back... but it's true that if there are some bugs in head, it may not be wise either to merge now... 20:37 wizzyrea owen: in case you ever come across what I just did with your virtualbox (ssh -p 2222 localhost -> connection refused) just restart ssh on your guest machine (/etc/init.d/ssh restart) 20:36 |Lupin| cait: ohoh... 20:36 wizzyrea no clue 20:36 cait |Lupin| perhaps wait a little longer, I think there are some bigger bugs to be fixed 20:35 Genji is it safe to cache C4::Biblio::get_biblio_authorised_values? 20:35 |Lupin| I think this is not gonna e an obvious task so I'll keep it for the week-end 20:35 |Lupin| wizzyrea: I can't test for now because I'll have to merge our branch with the latest head to test... 20:35 |Lupin| wizzyrea: I know it exists ! 20:34 owen ...and why does it work *after* you search through the main "search patrons" form? 20:34 owen I don't get it...why doesn't a patron search work if you start from the "filter" form? 20:32 wizzyrea |Lupin| did you get what you needed? 20:31 |Lupin| thanks anyway cait & wizzyrea 20:31 wizzyrea mornin jransom 20:31 jransom about to start testing 3.2 20:31 cait good morning jransom 20:31 jransom morning all 20:31 cait ok, now im confused g 20:31 wizzyrea j/k 20:31 wizzyrea ;) 20:31 wizzyrea triple padlock 20:31 wizzyrea the search field doesn't seem to work 20:31 cait jinx? 20:30 wizzyrea there is a text input box right above the Library and CategoryCode Dropdowns (terminology fix needed there too) 20:30 cait there is a drop down for branches and category codes and a search field 20:30 |Lupin| the filter box isnot a drop-down menu where you choose a branch ? 20:30 |Lupin| ah ! 20:30 wizzyrea ooh, yea, the filter box doesn't work by itself 20:29 cait |Lupin| the solutio is: put * in both search fields - top and filter 20:29 wizzyrea *there 20:29 wizzyrea wonder if regular searches work like that... there may be a bug ther 20:29 wizzyrea yes, ty cait 20:28 cait but you found out :) 20:28 cait funny 20:28 wizzyrea bottom one did 20:28 wizzyrea top one didn't work 20:28 wizzyrea http://screencast.com/t/MGFjZGM3Ym 20:27 wizzyrea http://screencast.com/t/ZTE1NDkxZW 20:26 wizzyrea weird 20:26 wizzyrea then add the filter 20:26 wizzyrea you have to put it at the top 20:26 wizzyrea yes, interestingly, you can't just put it in the little filter text entry box 20:25 |Lupin| you can see a list of all users 20:25 |Lupin| even before the filter patch 20:25 wizzyrea hm 20:25 |Lupin| * worked for me 20:25 wizzyrea no on * 20:25 wizzyrea no on % 20:25 cait or * 20:25 wizzyrea ooh, will check that 20:25 owen wizzyrea, cait, what about '%' ? 20:24 cait oh, perhaps its a bug ;) 20:24 wizzyrea cait: I tried that, my test didn't work :( 20:24 cait would an empty search and restriction work? 20:23 wizzyrea something = patron 20:23 wizzyrea |lupin| unfortunately, with the filter, you can restrict your search for something to a specific branch, but you can't show everybody from that branch, unless there's some magic search string that makes that work 20:21 |Lupin| hey galen ! nice to see you around, congras for all the commits ! 20:21 owen gmcharlt: I'll mention that to CGI952 if he returns 20:20 gmcharlt ;) 20:20 jwagner I'm sure the ASPCA appreciates that. 20:20 gmcharlt (though if any A.I.s want to join the fun, I suppose we can make an exception) 20:20 gmcharlt jwagner: yes! we're quite proud of the fact that we test only on people!!!! 20:19 jwagner But, gmcharlt, it raises the question -- does "humane work environment" mean they don't test code on puppies and kittens? Just on people??? 20:18 cait lol 20:18 gmcharlt heh - anyone should feel free to go the other direction, as well 20:17 jwagner Although the "humane work environment" might be a draw.... 20:16 jwagner Blame gmcharlt! blame gmcharlt! 20:16 owen Hands down everyone, you're not going anywhere! 20:16 chris thats what the lol was for :) 20:16 owen Wow, Equinox raiding the Koha devel list for devs! 20:14 |Lupin| cait: i see, thans. Will have to rebase our stuff on top of that,I'm sure it's gonna be big fun 20:12 cait |Lupin| I think its in the big merge from biblibre galen did some days ago 20:12 chris it also means schools 20:12 |Lupin| cait: hmm ? 20:12 chris it can 20:12 Ropuch chris: so 'kura' means treasure? 20:12 cait |Lupin| its in a newer update to head, 20:11 |Lupin| wizzyrea: is this part of what has been committed recently, or is that older ? 20:11 wizzyrea you can filter by library 20:11 |Lupin| cait: we are running master HEAD, or not too far from that... 20:11 wizzyrea that does appear to be possible in current head 20:11 wizzyrea oh, actually, cait is right 20:10 cait I think this may be possible in 3.2 20:10 wizzyrea not that I am aware of, but I haven't gone looking either 20:10 |Lupin| It'b nice to be able to limit patron search to a site... 20:10 |Lupin| wizzyrea: hmm... no easier way ? 20:09 wizzyrea |Lupin| I'm sure you could run a custom report to get that info 20:09 * wizzyrea passes out 20:08 * wizzyrea bonks herself with an iron frying pan: "oh, the marketingspeak has infiltrated my brain!" 20:08 |Lupin| my librarian asks me hther it is possible to see all members of one given site... anybody knows, pls ? 20:08 wizzyrea Global leader in open source solutions for libraries? 20:07 Genji Reads like Liblime's website. 20:07 Genji http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LibLime 20:06 jwagner I'm testing the Smithsonian library -- I know it used to work but it doesn't now. Their setup page has the same address & port number, but doesn't specify database name, and their tech person doesn't seem to know what it is. 20:06 cait guten Abend :) 20:06 |Lupin| guten Abend cait :) 20:06 cait hi |Lupin| 20:05 |Lupin| hello there :) 20:05 nengard hmm 20:05 jwagner joetho, no luck with any of those variations. 20:04 owen nengard: No luck with the batch item modifications for me either 20:02 chris pinepine te kura, hau te kura = the treasue is small, the treasue is famous 20:01 joetho jwagner , try dynix or dynixa too. 20:00 joetho jwagner , try Horizon with a cap then lowercase. 19:57 wizzyrea Yay song of the day! 19:57 chris song of the day http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/song/Pukaea+The+Trumpet/10794194 19:57 wizzyrea lol 19:57 nengard i'll forget to read the note :) hehe 19:57 nengard notes are no good to me 19:56 nengard hehe 19:54 wizzyrea also an excellent plan 19:54 nengard wizzyrea I'll send a message via the mailing list for them to answer when they're awake tomorrow and we're sound asleep :) 19:54 wizzyrea eh will make a note and ask tomorrow maybe 19:54 cait its late here - 9pm 19:54 chris its about 8pm there, unlikely to be anyone around 19:53 nengard yeah - was hoping one of them was here and would see what we were asking :) not sure who at biblibre is still on - and/or at work 19:52 chris everyone else is just guessing 19:51 chris i think its best to just ask the people who wrote it 19:50 nengard anyone else know any differently? 19:49 nengard a database update - but no template updates ... 19:49 nengard wizzyrea - this is all i can find: http://git.biblibre.com/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=koha&a=search&h=HEAD&st=grep&s=OpacPrivacy 19:49 wizzyrea seems likely 19:48 wizzyrea i was all excited ;) 19:48 nengard maybe we're just missing a template file 19:48 wizzyrea if ON, allows patrons to define their privacy rules (reading history) *description, not clear. :( 19:47 nengard he started it at kohacon 19:47 nengard that's what paul was developing it to do 19:47 nengard me too 19:47 wizzyrea I thought it would clear your reading history 19:47 wizzyrea or at least, not what I was expecting it to. 19:47 wizzyrea ohh, hm, that does not do what it says it does 19:46 nengard which - search history - or the preference? 19:46 wizzyrea setting is on 19:46 wizzyrea interesting 19:46 wizzyrea hmm I 'm not seeing that 19:46 nengard naything = anything 19:46 chris phasefx: you about? :) 19:46 nengard but I don't know howto change my privacy settings ... i turned it on but don't see naything in the opac 19:46 nengard and - there is a 'search history' link at the top of the OPAC on the right 19:45 chris lol 19:44 nengard turn it on 19:44 nengard wizzyrea - OpacPrivacy system preference 19:44 nengard i would think there is a sys pref as well 19:43 cait should be in opac I think, I only saw the patches (no test installation atm...) 19:43 cait hi chris 19:43 nengard welcome back 19:42 chris back 19:42 nengard oh yeah - i remember that ... is that is the current head? 19:42 cait I think there is a new feature for reading history 19:42 nengard or do you mean messaging preferences? 19:41 nengard patrons can't change those ... 19:41 nengard privacy settings? 19:40 wizzyrea in current head 19:39 wizzyrea hey, where can a patron change their OPAC Privacy settings? 19:39 cait http://spedr.com/4e05u 19:39 cait dont know if there is one, but in irspy there are many with db = horizon 19:37 jwagner I tried HORIZON but it didn't work. 19:37 jwagner Speaking of z39.50, does anyone know the default database name for a Horizon catalog? 19:29 joetho must be some good sh** 19:29 jwagner My memory from several years ago (dunno what's current) is that the z39.50 connection is actually MORE costly than their client -- you're charged by the hitlist because they have no good way to track which record(s) you actually download. 19:28 gmcharlt joetho: ask the dealer^W source 19:27 joetho wow, I am talkin street talk 19:27 joetho do they charge for z39 "hits"? 19:26 joetho yes, we get charged every time we use it for other stuff 19:26 jwagner Nope. Gotta pay for OCLC. 19:25 joetho uh oh, I assumed it allowed anonymous 19:23 jwagner joetho, did you include the account ID/password in the z39.50 setup? It's required. 19:20 joetho hmmm. Maybe I misspelled something. Lord knows I know how to misspell stuff! 19:19 jwagner joetho, the info on that page works for me -- I've always connected OK. 19:19 joetho your link is US, mine was worldwide. Same info 19:18 joetho jwagner , that's where I have been getting my info, albfeit from the worldwide version, not the US version 19:18 jwagner No holidays in that time span, so it shouldn't matter. 19:18 gmcharlt are you taking holidays into account, though? 19:17 jwagner So it's not including the grace period. That's what I needed to check. Thanks. 19:16 gmcharlt yep 19:16 jwagner gmcharlt, I always have trouble counting up days for overdue, but I think the grace period is not being included in the total fines. I made something due on the 1st, with a 1 day grace period and a $1/day fine. Running the fines cron today came up with a total of $6 in fines. If it were including the grace period day, shouldn't it be $7? 19:15 cait ah pootle is back :) 19:13 schuster Every time I print it to show acq, date added, price etc. it shows me a blank form or only shows things that are drop downs. 18:57 cait hi #koha 18:56 chris ok bus time, bbl 18:52 chris but id have to look at the code jwagner 18:52 chris i would expect 3 18:50 chris and provides a consistent api so instead of koha needing to understand all that, it just needs to understand CAS 18:50 jwagner Fines question for people -- if the circ rule specifies a one-day grace period, and the item is, say, four days overdue, does it charge four days' worth of fines or only three? 18:50 chris so you can have CAS server, that talks in the back to a RADIUS system over here, windows active directory over there, LDAP over somewhere else, maybe x509 too 18:48 chris its LDAP done right 18:48 chris CAS is cool as hell tho 18:47 chris the way the code is now, its going to require that module even if it doesn't use it 18:47 chris wizzyrea: ill send a patch so that it doesnt require the CAS unless you have the syspref on 18:46 chris morning all 18:45 gmcharlt hi brendan 18:31 brendan howdy gmcharlt 18:17 nengard yup 18:16 wizzyrea anyway 18:16 wizzyrea but I still had to install the dependency before I could do that 18:16 wizzyrea oh good. I disabled all of that CAS stuff 18:15 nengard wizzyrea yeah I had that problem too 18:10 wizzyrea blerg. 18:10 wizzyrea installed it and now it's working again. 18:10 wizzyrea that's a fancy way of saying it no worky. 18:10 wizzyrea erroeur 18:10 wizzyrea owen: interestingly, I could not get it to even load it without that dependency 18:04 owen But you can turn off the CAS stuff in system preferences 18:03 owen It was in an email from Colin: There was an added dependency - Authen::CAS::Client 18:00 wizzyrea i can't find it in my transcripts. Suppose I could look at the online logs 18:00 wizzyrea bleh, we were discussing CAS yesterday, I just updated and I apparently need it, which module do I install? 17:55 veryinky_ In any event, woke up this morning from a dream about a space based rpg which didn't exist. So I'm thinking about that instead of actual work. 17:51 nengard off to make something soothing for lunch :) 17:51 nengard whew - i'm soo tired now - just finished a 2 hour demo - first time speaking that much since getting the sinus infection .. now no more talking for the rest of today :) 17:50 veryinky_ I was 8. :| 17:49 * jdavidb did that a lot. 17:47 rhcl_in_an_out oh yes, typing in code published in magazines... 17:46 veryinky_ I think the first thing I wrote was a lemonaid stand game, from a magazine tutorial. 17:46 jdavidb rhcl: It wasn't object-oriented, and that's just before OO programming came out. By the time Modula-2 would have gotten a good foothold, OOP was more-important. 17:46 rhcl_in_an_out Caldo de Pollo for lunch.... 17:46 jdavidb I started out on the VIC-20, but I had programmed Atari 2600 BASIC a little before that. 17:45 rhcl_in_an_out Yea, I remember Modula-2 being highly regarded when it was introduced. Wonder why it never became more popular? 17:45 Ropuch atari basic & logo ;-P 17:45 veryinky_ 2.0 17:45 veryinky_ I learned how to program using turboC 17:45 jdavidb Modula-2 was a teaching language that added to Pascal in some useful ways, but it never caught on. 17:44 jdavidb Pascal is very good for teaching structure. If you learn to do something in Pascal, you can eventually do it in almost any other language, and it'll be very maintainable. 17:44 rhcl_in_an_out first day of class, I mean 17:43 rhcl_in_an_out My Pascal teacher was Armenian--first day he had just gotten back from a protest march at Washington DC - capitol. But he was a good teacher and Pascal didn't seem that hard. 17:43 veryinky_ Once tried to port a pascal project into c++. Gave up half way. 17:43 veryinky_ I remember and hate pascal. 17:43 * jdavidb <3 XKCD. 17:42 rhcl_in_an_out funy link 17:41 jdavidb I started out with Pascal, and learned a half-dozen others in college--was the lab instructor for Fortran, COBOL, and Modula-2, one term--the *same* term. 17:40 jdavidb or Lisp, even: http://xkcd.com/224/ 17:40 rhcl_in_an_out I still think Ada would be the best alternative port. 17:40 * veryinky_ did study RPG, COBOL, REXX, and some other stuff back in college. 17:40 jdavidb If you're gonna write it in a difficult language, use COBOL. Or Fortran, even. 17:39 rhcl_in_an_out According to wikipedia, RPG is still "popular" on IBM mainframes. 17:39 * veryinky_ hehs. Surprisingly enough, you're not the first to do a report program generator joke. 17:39 jdavidb now, there are heretics, and there is rhcl_in_an_out. 17:39 rhcl_in_an_out Yea, I know. I just took off on the RPG part. :) 17:38 Ropuch Maybe he was talking about some kind of role-playing? 17:37 rhcl_in_an_out Wonder if you could port Koha to RPG? 17:36 rhcl_in_an_out rpg was my very first programming class. Big mistake. All I remember is that you write it from right to left and it's very structured. 17:00 wizzyrea (it's snowing and I don't want to drive half an hour to test this theory) 16:59 wizzyrea or does a human still have to do step 3? 16:59 wizzyrea I wonder if anyone knows the answer to this question: I know the SIP server logic 1. Checks items in 2. notices and can print slips for holds but does it 3. confirm the holds? 16:56 owen Has someone already wished to be able to hook the results of a guided report to the new batch modification tool? 16:42 wizzyrea (I'm thinking of doing the same for the transit slips) 16:42 wizzyrea has anybody had complaints about the method applied to the circ receipts? 16:42 wizzyrea lol 16:42 owen Librarians also have a thing about not knowing how to use a keyboard 16:41 wizzyrea yourself 16:41 wizzyrea this just keeps you from having to close the window 16:41 wizzyrea the automatic print depends on the configuration of firefox 16:41 owen Librarians have a thing about not wanting to click stuff 16:41 wizzyrea jwagner: well, actually 16:41 kf bye #koha 16:40 jwagner wizzyrea, I think it would be great if all the slips had the option to print completely automatically -- no manual intervention (even a click) required. Right now, you still have to click on the OK button to print. Staff hate that. But it should be an option, because some people will want to see the slip first. 16:39 * owen is neutral, not being a user of transit slips 16:27 wizzyrea ) 16:27 wizzyrea (the circ slip already does it 16:27 wizzyrea (i know, this really ought to be a syspref) 16:27 wizzyrea anyone: objections to making transit slip open/print/close? 15:58 kf yes, owen++ :) 15:58 hdl_laptop owen++ for the Cart 15:57 hdl_laptop would also work for MARC21. you can add whatever you want 15:57 kf thx hdl_laptop 15:55 kf only for UNIMARC? 15:55 hdl_laptop then you can use that so that it is desiplayed in detail view even though you are not using XSLT 15:55 hdl_laptop and want to name it subtitle 15:55 hdl_laptop If you need to display or name a particuliar set of tags/subfields, in UNIMARC 200$e for subtitles, 15:54 kf not sure I understand it 15:54 hdl_laptop and implements a kind of extended attribute type for records. 15:53 hdl_laptop It fixed the way subtitles are managed 15:53 kf oh, never seen that - perhaps we skipped this feature? went from 3.0 to 3.1 15:52 hdl_laptop kf it is also in 3.0 15:50 kf its a new 3.2 features, but not sure how this works 15:50 kf can someone explain what keyword-to-marc-mapping does? 15:46 owen Woe to he who deletes a biblio which is in his cart 15:46 owen Interesting... A new "delete all items" menu item on the staff client biblio view menu 15:32 kf jwagner: thx :) 15:23 jwagner There's another patch I may do -- for corporate authors, there appears to be no punctuation or separation between subfields in the same entry. For example, 110 or 710 subfield a and subfield b run together. 15:22 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3788 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, jmf@liblime.com, NEW, XSLT does not obey viewISBD syspref 15:22 jwagner Sorry, Bug 3788 -- I'm dyslexic with numbers sometimes. 15:21 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3877 was not found. 15:21 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3750 enhancement, P5, ---, jwagner@ptfs.com, ASSIGNED, Modify XSLT to display subfield n of 111/711 and remove period after 110/710 15:21 jwagner kf, I don't know what might be in the latest head (haven't updated to it yet). From my list, Bug 3750 and Bug 3877 are XSLT-related patches that hadn't made it into head as of a couple of weeks ago. I think the rest of my XSLT stuff was already in head. 15:13 kf brendan: I wanted to start with opac xslt, jwagner sent some patches for this file, not sure what went into head yet 15:12 brendan ok I may poke at it during the week and will send any work I get done 15:12 kf brendan: not sure when I will have time to do it, so I would be happy if you want to work on it 15:11 brendan I haven't done anything yet either :) 15:11 brendan kf great 15:10 kf brendan: I offered paul_p (at least I think it was him) to work on a MARC21 xslt for intranet - but had no time yet :( 15:10 brendan hi kf 15:10 kf hi brendan 15:05 munin brendan: The current temperature in Northwest Goleta, Goleta, California is 1.6�C (7:00 AM PST on December 08, 2009).

Was just annoyed at myself for skipping a step. I do that too often. 14:43 kf veryinky_: for staff patrons you must set permissions in the next step, so they can log into the staff interface 14:38 * veryinky_ had created some in the previous install.

I myself am working with a Saudi Arabian library, whos afraid to upgrade to newer versions. 09:29 Susan-dev by the way, do you what differences exist between koha 3 and 3.02 09:29 Genji Ya.. not a good idea. 09:29 Susan-dev hehe 09:28 Susan-dev right now i am on PROD directly 09:28 Susan-dev ok, I will do my best..though I need a test machine to make those changes...finish them then move to prod 09:28 Genji and then do a complete rebuild. 09:28 Genji and repair the permissions. 09:28 Genji you definately need to move yor reindexing from the root cron to the koha cron. 09:28 Genji those are running as they should be. 09:27 Genji nope. 09:27 Susan-dev maybe there is another cron.. 09:27 Susan-dev me is confused, I thought I am running from root cron 09:27 Susan-dev and perl -I /usr/share/koha/bin/zebraqueue_daemon under koha user 09:27 Susan-dev koha-zebrauqueue-ctl-koha running under user koha 09:27 Susan-dev there is koha-zebra-ctl.koha daemon runnig under koha user 09:26 Susan-dev ok what shoudl I list? 09:26 Susan-dev OK let me do that now 09:21 Genji doublechecking, do ' ps aux | grep 'zebra' ' 09:18 Genji Not a good idea to run things on production machines as root... but oh well. 09:18 Susan-dev brb 09:17 Susan-dev you know what I mean? 09:17 Genji oh! 09:17 Susan-dev then I can reset the owners 09:17 Susan-dev Test is screwed up, I have to make a clone of prod and replace test 09:17 Susan-dev I can't change it on this machine Genji, because this is Production 09:17 Genji oh! 09:17 Susan-dev :( 09:17 Susan-dev having it be owned by koha before was annoying me 09:17 Genji Need to repair the damage done due to reindexing as root 09:16 Susan-dev and zebra files are owned by root 09:16 Susan-dev and the koha folder is owned by root 09:16 Susan-dev the problem is..the server is run as root 09:16 Susan-dev why am i not done? hehe 09:16 Genji Let me know when youve done hte cron thing, your not done yet. 09:14 Susan-dev hehe 09:14 Susan-dev ok, thanks Genji :) I am just glad the -r is ok 09:14 Genji right. okay. so, copy the necessary cron lines from the root cron to the koha cron (without the init) and then delete the cron entries you copied, from the root cron. 09:13 Susan-dev the user under biblioserver is koha koha 09:13 Susan-dev ok I opened the file 09:12 Genji koha-conf.xml 09:12 Genji oh.. maybe koha config file will give you what you want too. 09:11 Susan-dev where do I find that 09:11 Susan-dev zebra config file?? 09:11 Genji And you need to change the command from root user to the zebra user... which is inside the zebra config file. 09:10 Genji which will take alot longer than updating. 09:10 Susan-dev the rest of the command leave it 09:10 Susan-dev oh i see, just the init word 09:10 Genji the word init, deletes the zebra db each time it indexs. 09:09 Susan-dev ok will do 09:09 Genji just the 'init' 09:09 Susan-dev *Scared* everything might not work again... 09:09 Susan-dev completly?? 09:09 Genji take out the init 09:08 Susan-dev so I can change the time 09:08 Susan-dev when should I do them?? 09:08 Susan-dev how about the init one 09:08 * Genji nods. "Generally, -r isnt necessary every five minutes." 09:07 Susan-dev so you are saying this -r only do it if I make a big change like this 09:07 Susan-dev by the way..I think the -r worked 09:06 Genji hrm. how much % is perl and zebraqueue taking up? 09:06 Susan-dev stuff like that.. :) 09:05 Susan-dev zebraqueue 09:05 Susan-dev perl 09:05 Susan-dev it says xorg 09:05 imp 10am here ;) 09:05 Genji meh, its only 10pm 09:05 Genji Ah okay, run the command 'top' and tell me whats the top of the list. 09:05 Susan-dev though I would sure love the help 09:05 Susan-dev by the way what time is it wher eyou are? I don't want to keep you awake 09:04 Susan-dev but i am trying to put commands on my vmware server 09:04 Susan-dev my irc is outside 09:04 Susan-dev no no 09:04 Genji Oh, your irc session is running on this VMWare server? 09:04 Genji MAybe you have a task soaking up cpu time. 09:03 Genji Eek. 09:03 Susan-dev -_- 09:03 Susan-dev it is taking me 1 minute to type each letter on my vmware server 09:03 Susan-dev sory 09:03 Genji Hmm.... 09:01 Genji init is rebuilding.. its basically the same as -r in rebuild_zebra ... so not a good idea. 09:00 Susan-dev I understand the user issue, but as a process, is it ok? 09:00 Susan-dev or no 09:00 Susan-dev but a question, it is ok to have the init for authorities and biblios on this crontab 09:00 Susan-dev which chris said is needed. I will try -r to see what happenes 08:59 Susan-dev I guess without the -r 08:59 Susan-dev then rebuild)zebra -b -a 08:59 Genji definately not a good idea to do as root. 08:59 Genji init, does a complete rebuild. 08:58 Susan-dev and then similar one for zebra-biblios 08:58 Susan-dev init 08:58 Susan-dev zebraidx -c /etc/koha/zebradb/zebra-authorities-dom.cfg -g iso2709 -d authorities 08:58 * Genji nods. "Cut and paste that line. 08:58 Susan-dev every five minutes 08:58 Susan-dev so what I have in my crontab 08:57 Genji oh.... not good. 08:56 Susan-dev I think all run as root 08:56 * Genji nods. "And zebraqueue is running as the zebra user. 08:56 Susan-dev and it was automatically indexing it behind the scenes 08:56 * Genji nods. 08:56 Susan-dev All I did was marc import 08:55 Genji Or entering it in, or marc importing, did it as the zebra user. 08:55 Genji You might of rebuilt when it was in the zebra user. 08:54 Susan-dev when I was doing Dewy 08:54 Susan-dev so how come it worked Genji 08:54 Susan-dev .....sorry for beign slow hehe 08:54 Susan-dev my stupid server stopped working 08:54 Genji Zebraidx and the zebra server won't have access to the exported records, if you run reindexing as root. 08:53 Genji Chris is right, Susan.. but i wonldn't leave it running in root crontab. 08:53 Susan-dev good night chris 08:53 * Genji hmms... "Night Chris" 08:53 * chris has to go now, good luck 08:52 chris and run it from the commandline one time 08:52 chris or just leave it there 08:52 Genji Okay,... take zebra rebuild, out of the crontab. 08:52 CGI1985 wht is its meaning 'sudo: no password entry fo koha' 08:52 CGI1985 ? 08:52 Susan-dev ...um so what do I do then? 08:51 chris just after you make a change like that, something that effects every record 08:51 chris you dont want to rebuild the index everytime 08:51 chris dont change the crontab 08:50 Susan-dev please bear with me 08:50 Susan-dev Iok Genji, but root should have access to everything..let me just check the crontab..I will change it to zebra user after thats done :) 08:50 chris you definitely dont want -r in the crontab 08:50 Genji uhh... still doing it with the wrong user... 08:50 Susan-dev give me a minute please 08:50 Susan-dev let me see if I have the -r in the crontab 08:49 Genji and yes, it sounds like it might want a complete rebuild... -r 08:49 Genji always as the zebra user. 08:49 Genji never do rebuild as root 08:49 chris it doesnt reindex everything 08:49 chris that only indexes changed things 08:49 Susan-dev and If i change it back to dewy and dewy call number, it works again 08:49 Genji theres the problem 08:49 Genji ahh 08:48 Susan-dev root crontab 08:48 Susan-dev automaically I have it in a crontab 08:48 Susan-dev it auto indexes 08:48 chris and you reindexed after you changed it it LLC ?

08:47 Susan-dev and I am unsure of where to go from here..or what to search for.. 08:47 Susan-dev it no longer returns any results on the search 08:46 Susan-dev If I pick the Library of congress classification, and the itemcallnumber points to the LLC call number 08:46 Susan-dev It displays in the search, but I noticed THIS only works when I use the "DDC" classification,rather than LLC 08:46 Susan-dev I have Koha 3.0, and everything works fine before, when I import marc record/add items 08:46 Susan-dev I have a question that hopefully someone can answer. 08:45 Susan-dev Good day everyone 08:45 Ropuch^ sudo -u koha zebrasrv -f /etc/koha/koha-conf.xml 08:44 CGI1985 $ sudo -u ${KOHA_USER} zebrasrv -f /etc/koha/koha-conf.xml 08:44 CGI1985 It show that that -f is invalid 08:43 CGI1985 I still need u to finish the koha 08:43 CGI1985 ok couple of thanks 08:42 chris not if it installed the modules no 08:42 CGI1985 ok so I dont need to initialize it? 08:42 chris then its done 08:42 CGI1985 yes it installed 08:41 chris if it installed the modules 08:41 chris thats it 08:41 CGI1985 then? 08:41 CGI1985 I ran this 08:41 chris thats all 08:41 chris sudo cpan Algorithm::CheckDigits SMS::Send HTTP::OAI 08:40 chris CGI1985: run 08:40 Genji okay.... is there many method of seeing what calls st::execute 9000 odd times? 08:40 CGI1985 chris: wht should I do? 08:40 CGI1985 wht a hell! why is my IRC going offline after some time 08:39 chris no 08:39 Genji so, YAML is an unavoidable 'hotspot'? can't cache it? 08:34 chris sudo cpan Algorithm::CheckDigits SMS::Send HTTP::OAI 08:34 chris ie you ran 08:34 chris CGI1985: so you answer yes at the prompt?

08:32 chris Genji: all that yaml stuff is actually C4::Auth the session management, it serialises the session using yaml 08:31 CGI1985 Yeah 08:31 Genji think you might be trying to configure CPAN? 08:31 chris what command are you actually running CGI1985 ?

08:26 chris it will take whatever version you give it 08:26 chris and parsing that xml is slow 08:26 Genji Hmm... is there a method of forcing memcache to take a fresh version? 08:26 chris so you can just restart memcached at the same time to clear the cache 08:25 chris and if you ever do, it will be at the command line 08:25 chris you pretty much never change the koha-conf.xml 08:25 * Genji nods. "All these system pref calls, using dumpYAML and LoadYAML? 08:25 chris id actually cache the config for hours 08:24 chris caching the config is good too 08:23 chris (ie things that change very rarely) 08:22 chris another one that is safe 08:22 chris C4/Biblio.pm: memoize_memcached( 'GetMarcStructure', memcached => $memcached, expire_time => 600 ); 08:21 chris ie, dont cache a borrowers issues 08:21 chris anything that changes 08:20 Genji What is not safe to cache? 08:20 chris grep "memoize" in master 08:20 chris actually i think one other module 08:20 chris hi kf 08:20 Genji Ah. 08:20 chris by far even 08:20 chris and every single page uses it 08:20 chris its only in C4/Languages in 3.2 because it is bar far the slowest 08:19 chris you could, or you could just take that paste, and put it in the files you want caching whatever subroutines you want 08:19 Genji Hmm... I could get the git, then find xarg grep the memcaches, then duplicate the changes accordingly, in 3.0? 08:19 chris the 2nd param is seconds 08:18 chris those three subroutines are fine to cache 08:18 kf morning chris and imp 08:18 imp +s 08:18 imp moinen kf :) 08:18 chris (took out the sysprefs) 08:18 chris (i simplified it from here ) 08:18 kf good morning #koha 08:18 chris http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=blob;f=C4/Languages.pm; 08:17 Genji How do i work out whats not good to cache? 08:16 chris C4/Languages.pm 08:16 Genji what file is this from, Chris? 08:16 Ropuch hi paul_p ;> 08:16 Ropuch um 08:16 Ropuch Hi pastebot 08:13 chris hiya paul_p 08:13 pastebot "chris" at 192.168.15.101 pasted "caching the slow language queries - with hardcoded values" (16 lines) at http://paste.workbuffer.org/85 08:13 paul_p hi chris, Genji & al 08:12 chris memcached running and the Memoize::Memcached perl module 08:12 chris on any modules you like, caching anything that is safe to do so 08:11 chris then you can try that out 08:11 chris genji, you will need memcached running 08:11 pastebot "chris" at 192.168.15.101 pasted "caching the slow language queries" (16 lines) at http://paste.workbuffer.org/84 08:09 CGI1985 I have not solved this prob yet? 08:08 CGI1985 hi masonj: r u there? 08:07 chris C4::Languages is the slowest part of every page in the opac 08:07 chris but not impossible 08:07 CGI1985 is any one there to solve my problem 08:07 chris yes 08:07 Genji would it be difficult to murge the cache calls from 3.2 into a 3.0 base? 08:06 chris http://profiles.workbuffer.org/opac-main-memoize/ 08:06 chris after 08:06 chris before cache http://profiles.workbuffer.org/opac-main/ 08:05 chris http://profiles.workbuffer.org/opac-search/ 08:04 chris 3.2 caches those calls 08:04 chris yep, thats the config file, if it was xml it would be about 50% of its time 08:03 Genji chris: an opac search spends 10% of its time, wrapped up in YAML calls. 07:57 chris hiya Ropuch 07:56 Ropuch Helllo chris 07:54 chris Genji: yaml is a fantastic way to construct config files, and the systempreference editor uses it also 07:10 imp hi Ropuch 07:10 Ropuch Morning #koha 07:04 CGI1985 how can I solve this 07:04 CGI1985 this command is not working /etc/perl/CPAN/Config.pm initialized<CGI1985> bash: /etc/perl/CPAN/Config.pm: Permission denied<CGI1985> sudo /etc/perl/CPAN/Config.pm initializedsudo: /etc/perl/CPAN/Config.pm: command not found 06:52 Genji That developer made the mistake of putting these icuchains everywhere in default.idx. 06:52 Genji So, obviously, one of the developers thought a quick and easy way to transliterate utf8 was to use icuchain rules. 06:50 Genji This was a library that made koha work for Arabic, back in koha 3.0rc1. 06:50 Genji Oh, you don't know.

It's possible, but you'd have to measure 01:03 Genji can icuchains slow down the zebra search? 00:59 Genji that. 00:59 Genji I would of never thought of htat. 00:58 * Genji nods... "Something like that. It was hdl who gave me the clue, by giving me the content of his default.idx, relevant to numeric. 00:57 pianohacker Zebra problem solving: poke poke poke *check* *sigh* poke poke p- Hey, it works! 00:57 * brendan hands chris a judges mallet 00:57 Genji So, i just removed the icuchain from numerics.. and it worked! 00:57 chris cool 00:56 Genji chris, ive fixed my problem. the arabic coder put the numeric field into the icuchain. 00:47 pianohacker I was just about to ask 00:47 pianohacker Fix the test suite 00:47 chris I will reject patches for this reason 00:47 pianohacker ooh, can we add _another_ focus for 3.4? 00:47 chris but there is still a t/Bookfund.t 00:46 chris there is no C4::Bookfund anymore 00:46 chris :-) 00:46 chris and not changed the tests 00:46 chris the problem is bad people have changed lots of code 00:46 chris C4/Bookfund doesnt exist 00:46 pianohacker Just seems like the test suite is spitting out some very odd errors 00:45 pianohacker (if you know) 00:45 pianohacker Again, sorry for the stress. Why the include for C4/Bookfund broken, anyway? 00:45 chris yes 00:45 owen :) So ignore any warnings it gives me? 00:45 chris make test is currently worthless 00:44 chris yeah ignore it 00:44 chris oh make test 00:44 pianohacker Sorry 00:44 pianohacker It's make test that's broken 00:44 pianohacker Koha itself is, to the best of my knowledge, working fine 00:44 chris (the one with no BLIB stuff in it) 00:44 chris so apache is using the right config file? 00:43 chris and you have copied that to your apache2 and restarted apache etc? 00:41 pianohacker still fails after a make install; though it's set correctly in koha-httpd.conf 00:40 chris and end up with a koha-httpd.conf file outside in something like /home/chris/koha-dev/etc/koha-httpd.conf ? 00:40 pianohacker Not recently, time to likely fubar my zebra config 00:39 chris did you do the make install step? 00:39 pianohacker Also, I've duplicated owen's error exactly :/ 00:39 chris that's harmless 00:39 pianohacker what about copying C4/ to blib/PERL_MODULE_DIR/ ? 00:39 chris if you do a git clean or something 00:39 chris so they dont get stomped over 00:39 chris so and changes the values in them 00:38 chris the install step copies your config files outside of your git dir 00:38 chris its not worthless 00:38 chris you ahve either missed a step, or symlinked the wrong one 00:38 pianohacker chris: in the same vein: should you disable the seemingly worthless blib copy step for a dev install, and can you? 00:38 chris if there are any BLIB things in your koha-httpd.conf 00:37 chris mine says SetEnv PERL5LIB "/home/chris/git/koha.git" 00:37 chris thats certainly not what my koha-httpd.conf has set as it's PERL5LIB 00:36 chris you have done the make install step? 00:35 chris i dont think thats normal 00:35 pianohacker Yet another bug 00:35 pianohacker I think that's normal for a dev install 00:33 owen I was curious about that. Did I miss a step during the preparation, or is that normal for a dev install, or what? 00:32 pianohacker env PERL5LIB=/home/oleonard/kohaclone/ make test might work 00:31 pianohacker would make sense, since PERL_MODULE_DIR hasn't been replaced with the correct location of the perl modules 00:31 owen Yes 00:31 pianohacker owen: is this a dev install? 00:27 owen .../usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at (eval 3) line 2 00:27 owen Error: Can't locate C4/Bookfund.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /home/oleonard/kohaclone/blib/PERL_MODULE_DIR /home/oleonard/kohaclone/blib/arch /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl . /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5... 00:27 owen Okay, here's a make test error if anyone's willing to interpret: 00:26 Genji it was being parsed by icuchain 00:26 Genji Yahoo!!!!! 00:03 Genji Yup. 00:02 pianohacker Jesus christ, I loathe z39.50 and zebra's unhelpful error codes 00:01 munin Genji: Error: "attr" is not a valid command. 00:01 Genji @attr 1=31 4=109 , success.. no results. 00:01 pianohacker Huh. 00:00 Genji just @attr 1=31 1983, unsupported use.
