23:03 chris_n @seen Amit
23:00 brendan larsw++
22:59 chris_n but perfect code = no job ;)
22:58 larsw (I'll say anything to get people to test it ;-)
22:58 eythian larsw: until build ~catalyst2 ?
22:57 * larsw declares the Debian packaging for koha to be Perfect, Beautiful, and Timeless, with no changes ever needed again, forever, after the latest patch he sent
22:51 JeremyHumboldt thanks, later...
22:51 JeremyHumboldt jeremyHumboldt to chris -- Good idea, I'll check.
22:46 chris hi brendan
22:45 brendan afternoon all
22:32 larsw chris, ack, I'll make the package remove /var/log/koha
22:28 chris JeremyHumboldt: not me, does bluehost.com let you install modules from cpan?
22:28 chris i think removed
22:27 larsw in other words, if you uninstall koha, would you want the logs to be removed too, or might they have useful information that you want to keep?
22:26 larsw I am wondering if I should make the Debian packaging for Koha remove everything in /var/log/koha/ when the package is purged from the system
22:26 larsw koha produces some log files... are they important for anything except debugging problem situations?
22:24 JeremyHumboldt Has anyone installed the latest production koha on bluehost.com?
20:48 richard hi chris
20:48 chris hiya richard
20:47 richard hi
20:38 chris back
19:57 chris bus time
19:38 chris_n nice

19:36 chris_n heya brendan
19:35 brendan morning chris
19:35 chris how cool is this
19:28 chris hi chris_n
19:24 chris_n g'morning chris
19:20 cait morning chris and good night #koha
19:18 chris morning
18:53 chobbs Looks like somebody got DNS squared away again!
18:45 chobbs Example: http://koha.nhusd.k12.ca.us/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=html&limit=branch%3AES
18:41 wajasu chris_n: i agree
18:41 chobbs Here's one I thought I'd solved once before, but I've re-imported records since. All items show "No copies available" in opac-search.pl, but opac-detail.pl shows items correctly. Staff client shows correctly as well. Any ideas?
18:39 wizzyrea you're welcome :)
18:38 chobbs wizzyrea: thanks for IP
18:38 * chris_n thinks reverting to a pictorial rather than an alphabetic/phonetic language would fix many communication problems :)
18:30 wajasu this has been the function of programmers, but the tools/engines need to be shared, in an ESB on the internet. Of course, who does one trust to be their provider. Today it google, etc.
18:28 wajasu the deal is language (words change meaning over time) and the solution must account for that. concepts must be described, and the subjects/words we bind to the concepts must do so accordingly.
18:23 wajasu not enough, but the solutions needs to be outside of google, as it must pass away as well.
18:22 gmcharlt have you done much reading about RDF?
18:22 gmcharlt it's a long road to get there, with potential pitfalls such as Google ending up with a monopoly on everything
18:21 gmcharlt wajasu: no, it's fine
18:20 wajasu sorry for the rant. maybe not applicable to this channel.
18:20 wajasu what if a generic service like DNS but for identifiers/vocabularies is made available by the few experts, and the rest of us bind accordingly to those to drive our solutions.
18:19 wajasu i keep hitting projects where identifier vocabulary need to be downloadable on demand, and drive the underlying application. But thats a hard problem. Every agency/org/industry wants to control their industry and say they determine those identfiers.
18:16 wajasu i think projects like this will encapsulate and bypass the existing institutions (even LOC). just build it and they will come.
18:14 wajasu its funny, because the computer IT world build the infrastructure to allow businesses to classify information, using metadata repos, and its a tough problem with politics as well. fold in UNIONS and other self interests and roadblocks abound.
18:11 wajasu i listened to that library gang site audio. now I understand the struggles of the library community more.
18:02 brendan biblibre++
18:02 brendan sounds pretty cool http://koha-community.org/koha-newsletter-volume-1issue-4-april-2010/#newfeatures
18:01 * chris_n just needs time to polish it up and submit it :-(
18:01 chris_n wajasu: I have code that can generate the perl dep list
17:59 gmcharlt wajasu: good idea
17:58 wajasu making a package for a dist is an art (dependency problem). but I am waiting for your 3.2 release to put it in the archlinux AUR source build repo. It would be nice to have a makefile.PL option to spit out the perl dependency list with the >= version numbers so I can use that to drive my script to grab the perl modules from CPAN. Right now I have to inspect and diff that long list.
17:58 wizzyrea it's all true: you can't control your users. :(
17:56 wizzyrea boo
17:56 * chris_n notes that many people don't even read the INSTALL.flavor files before asking for them
17:56 nengard can someone please come tell the man next door to stop with the chain saw - my head hurts and he's not helping :(
17:54 gmcharlt wajasu: the difference is that you knew enough about the platform to do that - sometimes we gets questions like "why isn't there a README for my obscure distro? GIVE IT TO ME NOW!" or "why did this deviation from the instructions that I made without understanding cause something to break?"
17:52 wajasu 20 minutes as opposed to a couple of hours.
17:52 wajasu i made an archlinux pacman PKGBUILD that builds and archlinux koha-mysql-zebra-3.3_alpha.tar.pkg.gz from source, and chooses mysql,zebra,dom, and has perl deps from the makefile. but i had to write a script to pull and build all the perl deps and make perl-<MODULE> archlinux packages as well.
17:49 wizzyrea apt-get install koha would rule.
17:49 wizzyrea i'm not doggin on it. Really, I'm not. There's always room for improvement
17:48 gmcharlt I realize that isn't a substitue for true usabilty, but still ...
17:48 wizzyrea true!
17:48 gmcharlt although remarkably functional if one follows the instructions precisely
17:48 wizzyrea it's only admin friendly, and sometimes not even that.
17:47 wizzyrea (of COURSE the install process isn't user friendly. Sheesh.)
17:47 wizzyrea cool, will tell him that
17:47 gmcharlt certainly much more forward progress on it
17:46 wizzyrea we have a deb pkg coming soon though, right?
17:46 wizzyrea oh, angry twitterboy was mad about the install being hard.
17:39 owen My comment at 13:05
17:37 * chris_n wonders what db wizzyrea is referring to
17:34 cait :)
17:34 wizzyrea I could go on.
17:34 wizzyrea s
17:34 wizzyrea and exceptions to the exception
17:34 wizzyrea yea, it's a big database, with millions and millions of exceptions.
17:31 cait no, laptop could get angry with me...
17:30 chris_n cait: lol... why not 'while (1){print'windows--\n';}'
17:29 cait windows-- #again...
17:28 nengard it's already in 3.2 and works great!
17:28 nengard http://koha-community.org/documentation/3-2-manual/?ch=c7676#AEN7771
17:28 nengard http://koha-community.org/documentation/3-2-manual/?ch=c6726#AEN6845
17:27 nengard schuster yes
17:19 schuster another question - I thought there was some discussion that 3.2 would have a merge bib feature?
17:06 SJeffery Heh, true. Unfortunately I can't send a reply of *facepalm*
17:05 owen SJeffery: On the other hand, that's what the original developers of Koha said too :) "It's just a big database, right?"
17:05 owen Down this dark road many an unwary traveler has passed
17:04 SJeffery Our IT department came back with "hey, it is just checkin and checkout functions, why can't we just code the application"
17:04 owen Timely!
17:03 SJeffery hah, fantastic
17:03 chris_n http://koha-community.org/koha-project-stats/
17:03 SJeffery Does anyone have a rough idea of the number of lines of code in Koha?
17:03 chris_n windows-- # /me jumps on the band-wagon

16:43 jdavidb hi, cait. :)
16:39 cait hi #koha
16:33 nengard under the Circulation menu
16:32 nengard K - no prob, I'm sure a US library can help
16:32 chris_n nengard: I have data with some overdues... om
16:31 hdl_laptop But might be our only customer
16:31 hdl_laptop SAN does.
16:31 hdl_laptop nengard: I fear we donot often use fines in France.
16:30 chris_n hehe
16:30 owen It's gonna be a long day
16:29 CGI616 hello
16:28 owen Yes we can see what you're typing CGI616
16:27 CGI616 rylfh
16:27 CGI616 op{
16:27 CGI616 op´
16:22 CGI484 mmm
16:22 CGI484 hola
16:21 CGI484 alguien que me pueda ayudar con el Koha?
16:21 owen Hi CGI484
16:20 CGI484 hola
16:17 nengard can someone send me a screenshot of the overdues with fines report with data on it? I don't have any data in my system, but need a screenshot for the manual
16:12 chris_n owen: sounds like that might work
16:10 owen "OR statistics.itemnumber = deleteditems.itemnumber" ?
16:10 owen What would be the best way to pull in data from deleteditems?
16:09 chris_n humm.... "Extremely not user-friendly..." not Koha.... but perhaps Zebra :)
16:09 owen So... If you want to get statistics by collection code, and you pull data from the statistics table by saying "where statistics.itemnumber = items.itemnumber," you won't be able to count circs of items which have since been deleted.
16:04 wizzyrea I'll bite :P
16:03 wizzyrea maybe it's just his online persona. Couldn't hurt to find out what he thinks I guess.
16:02 nengard HA - that's why i didn't bother answering him
15:59 wizzyrea that guy, if you look at his tweets, he's an extreme pessimist, lol
15:57 owen It might be neat to use elgg as an organization-specific social network, let your staff create a new way to share info
15:57 wizzyrea wonder what he saw
15:54 nengard hmmmm - http://twitter.com/dougoftheabaci/statuses/12460072821
15:53 * jdavidb would have fun with elgg...create a meta-social-network, where you relink things from all your others...or start a 12-step group for social-networking addicts...
15:38 wizzyrea not that the world needs more social networks really, but wowie could you make one hell of a sopac with that.
15:37 * gmcharlt ponders the applications of renice(1)
15:37 wizzyrea elgg.org
15:36 wizzyrea has anybody looked at elgg?
15:35 wizzyrea which the more I think about it, is funny on multiple levels. *sigh* I'm in a strange mood today
15:35 chris_n lol :)
15:34 wizzyrea man, now I have this urge to see whether there is a unix daemon 'niced'
15:34 chris_n nice even
15:33 chris_n niced
15:27 wizzyrea (not my idea)
15:26 wizzyrea oh this is a cool post, good idea: http://koha-community.org/koha-project-stats/
15:22 wizzyrea of course they're not
15:22 owen I think the people who are actively managing those responsibilities aren't the ones allowed to make that decision
15:20 wizzyrea brb
15:20 wizzyrea especially with so many capable people ready to help
15:19 wizzyrea one would think, with all the other crap they have to deal with now, LL would be so excited to offload their community responsibilities
15:17 wizzyrea :)
15:17 wizzyrea yep
15:17 nengard the manual?
15:17 nengard is that what you were talking about me for?
15:16 wizzyrea paul_p: we'll get it in due time I"m sure. :)
15:16 chris_n lol
15:16 nengard it's monday
15:16 nengard oops - i meant chris_n -- not talking to myself :) hehe
15:16 nengard nengard - the 3.0 manual is the sole work of ME - but it's copyrighted by LL
15:15 chris_n nengard: is the 3.0 manual the sole work of LL?
15:15 owen nengard's ears were burning?
15:15 * chris_n wonders if nengard knew we were just mentioning her?
15:15 chris_n snap
15:14 * owen can't remember if others contributed
15:14 owen chris_n: It may have been the sole work of nengard while she was there, she would be the one to ask
15:13 paul_p (so the server is live only for koha mailing lists)
15:13 chris_n so the 3.0 manual was the sole work of LL then?
15:13 paul_p wizzyrea, about the mailing lists : we are willing & ready to move to koha-community.org (we changed our server, and asked LL for a DNS move, but of course had no answer)
15:08 owen See also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strategic_lawsuit_against_public_participation
15:08 wizzyrea owen++ for succinctly stating my position
15:07 owen The general rule of thumb: If it was possible for LL to be a dick about something, we planned for that contingency
15:07 * wizzyrea is not an expert in these things
15:06 wizzyrea though the entire site says distributed under GNU GPL
15:06 wizzyrea at least not the online version
15:06 wizzyrea and it doesn't have the license attached to it like the 3.2 manual does
15:06 wizzyrea ^^
15:05 owen nengard worked on it when she was a LibLime employee, therefore LL copyright
15:05 wizzyrea lemme check
15:05 wizzyrea I am not sure, when we set up the site I wasn't really interested in tempting the lawsuit gods by copying it over.
15:03 chris_n so it was not released under any sort of license?
15:03 wizzyrea ^^ what he said
15:03 owen Boo. :P
15:03 wizzyrea yes, LL copyright.
15:03 chris_n is there anything hindering us from having a copy of the koha 3.0 manual on the new site rather than pointing back to the old site?
15:02 wizzyrea will fix language caps tho
15:02 wizzyrea ;)
15:02 wizzyrea well, with minor revisions
15:02 * wizzyrea copied all of the text from the old Koha site
15:02 * chris_n likes the latest messages as well
15:01 gmcharlt s/german/German/, etc.
15:00 gmcharlt s/spanish/Spanish/
15:00 gmcharlt but you should probably do the same for the French and Spanish ones, and any other language-specific main users lists that crop up
14:59 wizzyrea Ah, yes, good point
14:59 * owen too!
14:58 gmcharlt I like the insertion of the latest messages from the main mailing list
14:57 gmcharlt wizzyrea: if you're citing whose hosting it, Katipo should get credit for hosting the main one
14:56 wizzyrea http://koha-community.org/support/koha-mailing-lists/ cool? sucky?
14:53 kf ok, time to leave - bye #koha
14:36 kf I use virtual box - so its easy to try :)
14:33 chris_n kf: you probably could do: 'perl Makefile.PL --prev-install-log /path/to/koha-install-log' and then do 'make && make install' rather than upgrade and get it done over-top of your present install if you wanted that
14:31 chris_n kf: a reinstall with pazpar2 would be the easier route
14:19 kf chris_n: thx :)
14:17 kf chris_n: not sure I will get the VARS right, perhaps reinstall koha with pazpar2 first... hm.
14:14 chris_n kf: the last two commits here are the ones: http://git.catalyst.net.nz/gw?p=koha.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/ashs
14:11 chris_n and I added archive.org to my config
14:11 chris_n chris has it setup to search project gutenberg
14:09 chris_n I don't think you can get away with just rerunning rewrite-config.PL as I think it relies upon env vars exported by makefile
14:07 kf uh
14:06 chris_n you have to sub out all of the __VARS__ by hand in the config files
14:06 kf pulling patches - sounds difficult for me :) but perhaps there will be some time this week to play
14:06 chris_n the pazpar2 setup is not straight forward if you did not select it during Makefile.PL
14:04 chris_n kf: I just pulled two patches from chris's repo, setup pazpar2, and things work for testing purposes
14:03 chris_n I don't know about the LL thing. I'm more interested in the ability to search other resources and group the results
14:03 kf chris_n: would like to see how it works. is configurtion difficult?
14:00 owen I remembered that LibLime has worked on the federated search a long time ago and then dropped it, so I wasn't aware it was functional
13:59 owen I'm not psychic, I saw in the log that you were messing with pazpar2
13:57 chris_n the grouped version of the template differs quite dramatically from the other, so I thought I might mess with it a bit and try to bring it more into sync
13:56 chris_n owen: I am messing with the pazpar2 stuff that chris has been doing
13:54 * chris_n wonders if owen is psychic :)
13:54 owen I haven't touched opac-results-grouped in a long time because I wasn't aware it was working
13:54 chris_n yes, and comparing it to opac-results.tmpl
13:53 owen chris_n: You're working with opac-results-grouped now aren't you?
13:52 chris_n ie. opac-results*.tmpl files
13:52 chris_n only "near"
13:50 owen Total lack?
13:49 * chris_n grumbles about the near total lack of indentation in the template files
13:48 schuster Margarita...
13:48 owen I thought down south it was always mint juleps
13:48 jwagner Is that the stuff they advertise as Mike's Hard Lemonade?
13:47 schuster Oh but it was goood lemonade.
13:46 jwagner HAH! I _knew_ you weren't all sipping lemonade!
13:45 schuster Don't be fooled... we are not all work... Librarians let down their hair at a conference... Just ask the hotel and restaurant operators from San Antonio last week.
13:42 * owen has got to get himself to one of these librarian meetings some day.
13:40 schuster owen - there was a second life presentation... I did't attend it - not something I'm overly interested in, but there was a LOT of great content at the conference and I found myself often having to choose between 2 things.
13:40 schuster I just started to read the latest newsletter!! WOW what a great list of articles and features for hopefully 3.2 - especially the did you mean. I sure hope that makes it in!
13:39 owen Probably social media or Second Life
13:39 owen She presented, but I'm not sure what
13:38 schuster did she present or a vendor?
13:37 schuster her and about 7,996 other of your closest librarian friends from Texas ;)
13:37 owen schuster: One of my Ohio colleagues was at TLA I think... Laura Solomon
13:33 schuster Hey! Back from TLA - now to catch up on everything I didn't get done while at a conference... And planning for ALA, and dreaming of 3.2 release!
13:33 owen Good morning schuster
13:27 bigbrovar__ thanks chris_n I finally followed your advise about creating a 956 item and it fixed the problem. search now works again :)
13:13 kf bigbrovar__: I never mixed bulkmarcimport and staged imports
13:12 kf bigbrovar__: hm I dont know, have you staged those records before using -d?
13:12 bigbrovar__ when i click the "import into catalog" button the browser just doesnt respond and progress stays at 0%
13:11 gmcharlt hi chris_n
13:11 chris_n good morning #koha
13:11 bigbrovar__ kf: is there anything i need to do after using the bulkmarcimport script -d because after deleting all biblio records, i cant seem to import new staged records to my koha database

12:06 bigbrovar__ is there a way i cna delete all my bilblio records on koha
11:56 bigbrovar__ .
11:56 collum good morning, all
11:53 Amit_G heya kf, jwagner
11:52 kf good morning jwagner, collum and Amit_G
11:51 jwagner Good morning, all
11:45 collum Good morning Amit_G
11:27 Amit_G heya nengard, collum
09:15 bigbrovar_ thanks chris i would look into that
09:13 bigbrovar_ how can i add imported catalog from spreadsheet using this guide http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=openoffice_excel_delimited_text_to_koha_using_marcedit
09:12 chris early start chris_n` ?
09:09 chris if so, then that is the problem, you have no items
09:09 chris try adding an item to one of those records, then reindex and search on it, and see if it now shows up
09:08 chris it is stored in 952
09:08 chris when you import you usually import the item data too
09:05 bigbrovar_ it seems importing catalogs to koha is not enough, i have to define them as items.?
09:04 bigbrovar_ chris: it says no items available ..
09:02 chris how many copies of the introduction to philosophy do you have, ie how many items are attached to that record, you can see that in the librarian interface in the search results, it will say 2 items available etc
09:01 chris the librarian can see biblio records that have no items, but the opac often doesnt show them, so you dont show the public records you dont have any copies of
08:59 chris items or biblios show up?
08:59 bigbrovar_ chris: ok so even if i can search from localhost:8080 and items shows up when i search. it might now work on opac?
08:58 chris because often the opac wont show results if the biblio has no items attached
08:56 bigbrovar_ how to i set the value to 0?
08:56 bigbrovar_ yeah i imported some items from spreadsheet using marcedit and that seems to have gone fine
08:53 chris your biblio records have items eh?
08:52 chris i suspect that off is not actually turning it off (or its putting off as the value instead of 0)
08:52 chris you only need to reindex if you set up a suppress index which you havent done
08:51 chris no need to reindex
08:51 chris make sure the value for it is set to 0
08:51 chris ok check it in the db
08:50 bigbrovar_ I turned it on again and reindex zebra still no show, searching doesnt work.. and i still get a "No results match your search for “kw,wrdl: An Introduction to Philosophy"
08:50 chris if that doesnt work, check the value in the db, and make sure its set to 0
08:48 chris try switching it to on then
08:48 bigbrovar_ chris: the options are on of off and its already set to off
08:47 chris and then try your search on the opac again
08:47 chris set it to don't hide
08:47 chris yes
08:47 bigbrovar_ chris: it should be under cataloging ?
08:45 chris go to systempreferences
08:45 chris you want to disable t
08:45 bigbrovar_ chris: like most of my googling is saying i need to do something about opacsuppresion
08:44 bigbrovar_ chris: how do i enable opacsuppresion cus that is popping up alot
08:44 bigbrovar_ chris: I just did a search now and it worked!..
08:44 chris yeah in that case its probaby just the opacsuppresion
08:43 bigbrovar_ chris: omg it does work from the liberian side
08:40 bigbrovar_ chris: ok let me check
08:39 chris or does it not work on both
08:39 chris but it works on the librarian side?
08:39 kf bigbrovar: have you checked zebrasrv is running?
08:38 bigbrovar_ because when i try to search using the the koha public link http://library.mylibrary.com (which is an intranet site) I cant get search to work.
08:34 chris then try a search and make see what hits zebra
08:34 chris zebrasrv -f /etc/koha/koha-conf.xml
08:33 chris then run it by hand as the koha user
08:33 chris one thing you can try, is stop the zebrasrv with the init.d script
08:31 chris and when you search, in both the opac, and the intranet sites, you get no results?
08:30 chris that looks good
08:27 bigbrovar chris: this is the logs from the rebuild_zebra.pl -b -a -v http://pastebin.com/EuFk84zs and this is the output of the ps axf | grep "zebrasrv" http://pastebin.com/11A3qUN0
08:24 chris those wont be to do with the search, so you are sure zebrasrv is running, and you saw all the records get indexed when you ran rebuild_zebra?
08:23 bigbrovar chris: I followed the one in the tarball and i ran into some perl deps issues
08:22 chris ps axf | grep "zebrasrv"
08:22 chris also are you sure zerbrasrv is running?
08:22 chris and try it without the -w
08:21 chris bigbrovar: id follow the guide in the tarball, not the wiki
08:21 chris also you need to make sure your zebrarsrv is running
08:21 bigbrovar I followed everything here http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=koha_3_install_guide_ubuntu_hardy#indexing_using_zebra
08:21 chris rebuild_zebra.pl -b -a -v
08:20 chris when you try to run rebuild_zebra.pl do it with -v for verbose so you can see what happens
08:20 chris that error is just a warn, not an error, can be ignored
08:16 chris specifically the ones around setting up zebra and zebra indexing
08:16 chris you should make sure you followed all the steps in INSTALL.ubuntu
08:14 bigbrovar I am using koha 3.0.5 on Ubuntu 8.04 I used the following installation guide http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=koha_3_install_guide_ubuntu_hardy
08:13 bigbrovar Hi guys I setup a koha instance for the library of the school where i work. I was able to import their spreadsheet based catalog into koha using marcedit. However I have not been able to get search to work.. when i try to search the follow error shows up in the error.log http://pastebin.com/854XAkyF same thing happens when i run rebuild_zebra.pl

04:20 chris to update the history
04:20 chris yep you did, i sent a patch
04:19 Amit_G heya chris i think i become 110th committer on koha
04:13 genji1 ya.. i have koha here phrasing arabic from utf8 to \x just fine.... but don't know how its done yet.
03:57 chris cos they have it working fine
03:57 chris you should ask them how they did it
03:55 genji1 but, the Search.pm routines need it in \x format.
03:55 chris http://koha-community.org/arabic-koha/ have you seen this?
03:55 chris why do you want to do that then?
03:55 genji1 oh, im using zebra...
03:55 nod genji1: so you want some perl to do that?
03:54 chris thats because you arent using zebra eh?
03:54 genji1 hmm... im wanting to sidestep buildquery, to go from arabic to \x codes...
03:53 nod it will show you the decimal hex and octal values
03:52 nod genji1: if you have vim you can move the cursour over the utf8 char and type 'ga'
03:41 genji1 hiya. you know how to get utf8 strings to strings like \xa4?
03:41 Amit_G hi genji1, chris
03:40 Amit_G genji1
03:24 genji1 ?
03:24 genji1 Hello Amit/
03:04 genji1 specifically... i have a question about utf8 conversion.... how to go from utf8 to something like \xa7
03:03 genji1 anyone here?
