I look forward to the day when it all averages out to less than 30 minutes 15:57 gmcharlt moodaepo: drat - that means we don't get to regale you with tales of the man-eating Maine Coons bedevilling the streets where sekjal lives ;) 15:57 moodaepo gmcharlt++ # that line sounds like something from Twain : ) 15:58 nengard am I the only one who missed the newest OCLC drama? 15:59 gmcharlt nengard: there's been both private and public sides to it 15:59 nengard I'm just trying to catch up on it all 15:59 gmcharlt the public side has been blogged about for a week or so, although not heavily 15:59 nengard I'm not sure I understand yet 15:59 gmcharlt for the private side, somebody is apparently sending anonymous emails to a bunch of people complaining about the salaries of the OCLC trustees 16:00 sekjal I've missed a lot this last week; there's OCLC drama? 16:00 nengard sekjal http://www.libraryjournal.com/article/CA6720609.html 16:00 sekjal nengard: thanks! 16:00 nengard & http://freerangelibrarian.com/2010/03/07/it-aint-easy-being-oclc/ 16:00 nengard the 2 sides of the story 16:01 paul_p hello #world 16:01 gmcharlt sekjal: also see a couple posts on the front page of http://kcoyle.blogspot.com/ 16:02 sekjal thank, gmcharlt and nengard. hello, paul_p 16:14 pastebot "nengard" at 192.168.15.101 pasted "errors" (5 lines) at http://paste.workbuffer.org/14 16:14 nengard can anyone help with these errors? 16:14 nengard I fetched on Friday and rebased and now i see this when i try to get to my koha install 16:16 gmcharlt nengard: at first glance, it just appears that mysqld is not running 16:17 nengard k - and how would get that up and running again? 16:17 nengard cause I didn't turn it off :) 16:17 gmcharlt nengard: first, check by doing ps -ef | grep mysqld 16:17 nengard nengard 2011 1939 0 06:20 pts/0 00:00:00 grep mysqld 16:18 gmcharlt k, it's definitely gone 16:18 gmcharlt so do 16:18 gmcharlt sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start 16:18 nengard /etc/init.d/mysql: ERROR: The partition with /var/lib/mysql is too full! failed! 16:18 nengard uh oh! 16:18 wizzyrea lol 16:18 nengard :) 16:19 wizzyrea oops 16:19 gmcharlt nengard: df -k 16:19 * jdavidb hates it when that happens. 16:19 nengard gmcharlt - what are we looking for on that? I don't want to paste it all 16:20 gmcharlt how your filesystem is laid out - whether it's spread out across mutliple disks, or allocating everything to / 16:21 pastebot "nengard" at 192.168.15.101 pasted "disk" (10 lines) at http://paste.workbuffer.org/15 16:21 nengard looks spread out to me 16:22 jdavidb very. 16:25 nengard k - so what do I do? do I give it more space do i delete temp files? i'm using virtualbox - if that matters 16:25 gmcharlt nengard: it should help - you can allocate more disk to the VM 16:26 jdavidb you might also look for excess junk in /var. /var/log, for one, can accumulate a lot of stuff after a while. purging old logs might be useful. 16:26 gmcharlt yep 16:26 nengard jdavidb - are there any logs I would need to keep? 16:27 gmcharlt although 1.1 GB is rather little space for /var unless your laptop doesn't have any more free disk space 16:27 nengard it has plenty of space 16:28 jdavidb Normally, the system will zip 'em up after a couple of days, so you could delete the *.gz files you find there in a pinch. But I'm with gmcharlt--give it more room. 16:28 gmcharlt nengard: try cd /var; du -k -s * 16:28 gmcharlt that will give you an indicate of which directories are taking up the most space 16:29 pastebot "nengard" at 192.168.15.101 pasted "cd /var; sudo du -k -s *" (14 lines) at http://paste.workbuffer.org/17 16:29 nengard is there a way with virtualbox to re-allocate space? 16:29 nengard i'm looking now - but if someone knows :) 16:30 gmcharlt plenty of stuff under /var/log to delete 16:30 nengard heck yeah there is!!! 16:30 nengard just wanted to know if there was anything that has to stay in there - if not i'll empty it 16:30 gmcharlt I'd start with deleting anything that has a *.gz extension in /var/log/apache2 16:31 gmcharlt don't wipe, but any file that has name of the form foo.log.number.gz should be safe to delete 16:32 nengard can't get into the apache2 folder - permissions denied - but i do have *.gz files in the log folder I can remove 16:33 nengard bleh can't remove anything permission denied .... hmmmm 16:33 nengard they are owned by adm - but i don't know who adm is 16:33 gmcharlt nengard: sudo rm name_of_file.gz 16:35 nengard woo hoo 16:35 nengard nengard@debian:/var/log$ sudo /etc/init.d/mysql startStarting MySQL database server: mysqld .. 16:35 nengard now i'm going to add more space to it anyway 16:35 nengard thanks guys!! 16:36 gmcharlt ok, looks like resizing the disk may not be an option in virtualbox 16:37 gmcharlt so simplest thing to do would be to add another virtual disk to the VM 16:37 gmcharlt mount it as a new filesystem in Debian 16:39 gmcharlt then move the mysql datafiles there and create a symlink from /var/lib/mysql to the new filesystem 16:39 nengard gmcharlt - yeah - was just reading the same thing - can't change disk space 16:40 nengard as for what you're suggesting I do - I'm not sure I know how to do that on my own - I had Chris walk me through the entire setup of Koha on virtualbox - and now I have manual writing to do 16:40 nengard so I'll keep an eye on it for now 17:25 brendan @weather 93117 17:25 munin brendan: The current temperature in Northwest Goleta, Goleta, California is 13.5�C (9:22 AM PST on March 08, 2010).

I saw the 2.8 section on manual to do this via web 18:07 CGI930 Also on a FAQ I'd found "There are also command-line utilities for import/export if you prefer those.", but I couldn't find this script, only for import (bulkmarkimport.pl) but not for export 18:14 CGI930 I couldn't find anything on /usr/share/koha/bin... 18:18 schuster Can someone else tell me or check this?

Did you check your authorized values? 20:33 owen I think you probably just have duplicates there. I did. 20:33 owen I suspect there was an updatedatabase somewhere along the line that incorrectly duplicated some 20:42 schuster I'll check the shelving locations again, but I thought I had and there wasn't anything there. Let me go back. 20:45 schuster Ah yes loc - not CCODE... I always think Library of Congress and can't figure out why that is there! But still a problem... 20:48 wizzyrea ok, I have a hypothetical for you 20:48 wizzyrea lets say you have a bunch of libraries 20:48 wizzyrea placing holds from opac and staff client 20:48 wizzyrea items getting checked in and out 20:49 schuster With ya so far wizzyrea. 20:49 wizzyrea would bad response time from the server cause anomalies with the holds functions? 20:49 schuster That's usually what happens in libraries... ;) 20:49 wizzyrea a la schusters problem with the checkins not happening under high load conditions 20:49 wizzyrea schuster's* 20:50 schuster Was the item actually checked in or is it still checked out so the hold wasn't triggered? 20:50 wizzyrea well it looks like it was checked in, and it shows the "hold alert" 20:50 wizzyrea and you can click the button 20:50 wizzyrea and something happens 20:50 wizzyrea but our holds queues are BIZARRE 20:51 wizzyrea not just the lists, the actual hold queues on specific bibs 20:51 wizzyrea and it's only started in the last few weeks 20:51 wizzyrea mind you, we have no new code 20:51 wizzyrea (that we know of) 20:51 * wizzyrea grumbles about that 20:52 schuster We did see that if you click ignore on a first available copy it does strange things... 20:52 wizzyrea yes, i've noticed that too 20:52 wizzyrea but I can't blame everything on that 20:52 wizzyrea and this isn't 3.2 20:52 schuster Your copy goes to available - but the hold may never get queued again. 20:52 schuster Right LL 3.0.x 20:53 schuster I have not played with holds yet on 3.2... Still in testing mode on several things. 20:55 wizzyrea well the 3.2 holds are still a bit funky 20:55 wizzyrea I have high hopes though 20:56 wizzyrea not sure they could be worse than what we're dealing with now though 20:56 * wizzyrea looks for a rope and a high precipice 21:52 rhcl So is there no open source version of WorldCat? 21:52 brendan @weather 93117 21:52 munin brendan: The current temperature in Northwest Goleta, Goleta, California is 18.7�C (1:49 PM PST on March 08, 2010).
