05:34 brendan         hiya amit_g
05:34 brendan         night all
07:14 kf              good morning all :)
07:25 chris           hi kf
07:26 kf              hi chris :)
07:27 kf              investigating a problem with umlauts and item import today, something somewhere breaks my umlauts in marcxml
07:28 chris           ah bound to be some utf8 conversion thing
07:28 kf              I think so
07:29 kf              items table is correct
07:29 kf              when I edit the item without changes its correct in marcxml after that
07:32 chris           yeah that does sound like a conversion on import
07:47 genji           how do i delete all authorities with 0 biblios attached to it?
07:53 Amit_G          heya genji, kf
07:54 kf              hi genji and Amit_G
07:54 kf              genji: good question!
07:57 genji           cause i have lots of them.
08:04 hdl_laptop      genji: iirc you have a clean_unised_authorities script in 3.2
08:06 genji           hmm...
09:53 gmcharlt        good morning

11:51 jwagner         Bonjour, hdl_laptop
11:51 jdavidb         harrumph!
11:51 jwagner         That's my line....
12:00 kyle            hey all

12:11 gmcharlt        hi kf kyle
12:11 gmcharlt        et al
12:16 kyle            It looks like the ability to place holds is broken in master, can anyone confim/refute this?
12:17 owen            kyle, have you checked your issuing rules?
12:18 kyle            Nothing in our data has changed, I simply pulled the latest master and now I can go through the motions of placing a hold, but it doesn't 'stick'
12:20 * owen          feels like every time he turns around there's some glitch with holds

12:24 owen            kyle: Double-check that you have a "holds allowed" value specified for the patron category/item type combination you're trying to do a hold for
12:25 kyle            Thanks for the help. Must be a problem with our data. Time to do some digging.
12:25 kyle            I'm placing holds as kohaadmin
12:25 owen            Doing anything as kohaadmin is never a good idea from a testing point of view
12:25 owen            Weirdness occurs.
12:26 kyle            still borked with a standard librarian account. sigh.
12:29 kf              no error message?
12:31 hdl_laptop      kyle : must be your issuingrules
12:33 kmkale          good evening all
12:35 kf              *sigh* I hate non-repeatable errors
12:52 owen            kyle: Can you describe the problem you're having? I'm attempting to debug some holds stuff too
12:54 kyle            sure. I'm just walking through the process of placing a hold from the intranet. Everything seems find up to and including the final click of the 'Place Hold' button. But the hold does no get added to the list of existing holds. I've tried it with multiple patrons and items. I checked out an older version and was able to place holds without a problem.
13:00 kyle            I figured out my problem. reserves.expirationdate was set to NULL=no. I don't know how or why.
13:01 kyle            updatedatabase and kohastructure both allow null values for reserves.expirationdate as far as I can tell.
13:01 kf              jwagner++ for updating all bugs in bugzilla
13:03 jwagner         Still working on that, kf -- apologies for all the emails generated :-)
13:03 nengard         jwagner -thanks for reminding us about the bugzilla plan!!
13:04 nengard         and I don't mind the emails ;)
13:04 nengard         updated bugs are more important
13:04 kf              they are
13:04 * owen          is just glad the emails are going through again!
13:04 kf              perhaps we could link new sponsored features in the wiki to bugzilla - an overview and more details in the bugs

13:09 jwagner         :-)  But I meant to mention the other day, while people were giving jdavidb & me so much karma -- we're the ones you see online, but there are a LOT of other people who worked on these features and deserve some love.  People like David Birmingham and Colin Campbell, among others. jdavidb & I didn't do everything by ourselves here (much as it felt like it at times)

13:13 owen            hdl_laptop, jwagner, chris_n:  I see comments on Bug 4045 about various people working together to solve the problem. Is that happening?
13:13 munin           04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4045 critical, P5, ---, cnighswonger@foundations.edu, ASSIGNED, No check for maximum number of allowed holds.
13:13 owen            Right now opac-reserve.pl uses two different methods for determining the maximum number of holds allowed.
13:14 owen            One way is the "new way," by checking issuingrules. The other is a check for the maxreserves system preference which no longer exists
13:14 owen            Line 83 of Utility.pm: my $MAXIMUM_NUMBER_OF_RESERVES = C4::Context->preference("maxreserves");
13:15 hdl_laptop      owen: yes.
13:16 jwagner         owen, my message in that entry was referencing our new devel, Bug 3507
13:16 munin           04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3507 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, kohaprogrammers@ptfs.com, ASSIGNED, Circ rules enhancements, maximum fine warning
13:16 jwagner         I think it checks maxreserves as a backup.  It could be reconciled, I imagine.
13:16 jdavidb         I've got a puzzler for the Zebra gods and goddesses...  Client can search using yaz-client just fine, but all searches in Koha are broken; the zebra log gives this--(line breaks mine):
13:16 hdl_laptop      We worked on that but relies on issuing rules and holding rules in the issuingrules table
13:16 owen            The maxreserves check isn't a backup, it's an inconsistency. The two methods are used in different places

13:18 hdl_laptop      is your db in ICU ?
13:18 jdavidb         114 indicates attribute problems, yeah, but I'm not seeing anything obvious.
13:18 hdl_laptop      Are you using QueryFuzzy ?
13:18 jdavidb         That's a good question; I do not know.  I rather doubt it, though.
13:18 hdl_laptop      It ssems yes.
13:18 jdavidb         It looks like Fuzzy is on, yes.
13:18 hdl_laptop      turn it off.
13:19 hdl_laptop      icu zebra is not supporting attr5=103
13:19 jdavidb         Ah-hah!  If fuzzy is on, and icu is being used, you get nothing.
13:19 jdavidb         hdl_laptop, you are *awesome!*
13:19 hdl_laptop      well.... zebra is not what I would call error-forgivable.

13:24 jdavidb         I was chasing all sorts of shadows here; this particular customer is on Red Hat Enterprise, so I was wallowing around in the maybe-the-wrong-version-of-X sort of thing.
13:27 gmcharlt        hdl_laptop: has indexdata said anything about when/if that might be changed?
13:32 hdl_laptop      No answer.

13:35 jwagner         On Bug 4238, we've received the permission for using the code.  Do you want a copy of the email forwarded to you?

13:35 jwagner         Save the email itself & do as an attachment?
13:35 jdavidb         Well, rats.
13:36 jdavidb         hdl_laptop++  , but that didn't solve their issue.  Back to ye olde drawing board.
13:36 gmcharlt        jwagner: copy and paste of the email is fine - what I'm looking for is the exchange, i.e., how you asked the question
13:47 owen            Not to diminish in any way the work that PTFS has done, but I wonder whether "patch sent" is really the right status for a bug which has a fix on an unreconciled branch
13:48 gmcharlt        owen: it depends
13:48 gmcharlt        for a branch to be pullable, it has to be a descendent of the current master, implying a rebase
13:48 gmcharlt        for the topic branches that are just a couple patches
13:49 gmcharlt        cherry-picking from those branches is likely good enough
13:49 gmcharlt        but for more complex things like the granular circ permissions
13:49 gmcharlt        they really do need to be rebased against master first before being pulled
13:49 gmcharlt        now that's something that anybody could take on
13:50 gmcharlt        but for complex merges, I'd want jdavidb and crew to take the first crack at it
13:52 jwagner         owen, it's the only status available :-)
13:56 gmcharlt        jwagner: one thing I do suggest is send emails to the patches list when a branch is actually pullable or cherry-pickable
13:56 gmcharlt        otherwise it is possible for something to be lost in the suffle of the dozens of bug status updates that can take place during  a day
14:01 chris_n         jwagner: bug 3738 appears to already be fixed in head

14:13 jwagner         Yes, I'd sent that patch earlier.
14:14 kyle            gmcharlt: Hello, I recently found a bit of javascript you wrote ( assuming there aren't many Andreas Blixt's out there. ) We would like to use it in Koha, and Open Source library management system. Would you be willing to allow me to release this code under the GPLv2 or later?
14:14 gmcharlt        and it was pushed a couple months ago, so I think it's a candidated for closing
14:15 kyle            the reply: Haha I had a hard time even remembering I wrote that code. Go ahead. :)
14:15 kyle            As a general rule I say that all my minor pieces of code are MIT licensed, but I always appreciate a mention. :)
14:15 kyle            yes, the smiley's were his ; )
14:15 gmcharlt        kyle: good enough - paste that in the bug, please
14:15 gmcharlt        and a follow-up patch the file to mention attribution would be good
14:19 kf              jwagner: is 952$i  mandatory for item suppress? we have our inventory numbers in $i now :)
14:19 kf              ok, stupid question, it is because of the index
14:21 jwagner         kyle and gmcharlt, I've updated the bug with the permission exchange.  Thanks.
14:21 * chris_n       chuckles at nahuel's wording "weird code in search scripts"
14:21 chris_n         imagine that :)
14:21 gmcharlt        thanks
14:22 jwagner         kf, I'm not sure of the code.  If you're using that subfield, I'd update the bug report to note that; it might need to be modified at integration.
14:22 nahuel          chris_n, what do you mean by chukles ?
14:22 nahuel          :)
14:22 jwagner         Looks like Kyle beat me to it :-)
14:22 chris_n         nahuel: lol
14:22 chris_n         or laughs
14:23 * chris_n       thinks there is much weird code in the search stuff
14:23 kyle            ; )
14:23 nahuel          ok ok :)
14:23 paul_           last week, nahuel worked on a POC of koha + solr = in 2hours, it was working a little bit, and 95% of search code had been removed.
14:23 paul_           nice way to clean code :D
14:24 kf              jwagner: I m not sure, I saw that biblibre added a new features for stocknumbers, perhaps it makes sense to move our data
14:24 jdavidb         nahuel++
14:25 kyle            I was we thinking we should change all the 'reserves' language in the code to 'holds', in case someone wants to add a true reserves system later on. Sometimes the code uses way too many different terms for the same thing i.e. borrowers, patrons, members
14:26 nahuel          zebra must go out :)
14:26 nahuel          and koha must stop trying to do a search engine job
14:26 nahuel          like creating ccl/pqf queries
14:26 * jdavidb       gives nahuel the zebra-hunter hat.
14:26 kf              das solr work with icu?
14:26 gmcharlt        nahuel: Zebra shouldn't be killed - not everybody is going to want to run a tomcat stack
14:26 gmcharlt        better is multi-search engine support
14:26 kf              das = does
14:27 gmcharlt        I do fully support killing NoZebra, though :)
14:27 hdl_laptop      kf: yes.
14:27 hdl_laptop      kf: it uses icu4j
14:27 kf              hdl_laptop: ah, thx
14:27 kyle            but I use NoZebra for my home library!
14:27 nahuel          gmcharlt, solr can run in any servlet daemon
14:27 nahuel          AND
14:27 nahuel          solr can be a remote service
14:27 nahuel          like one provided by the acquia company
14:28 gmcharlt        and ... not everybody is going to want to run a servlet stack :)
14:28 nahuel          And no body want's to run a badly working search engine like zebra :)
14:28 nahuel          well...
14:28 nahuel          zebra IS NOT a search engine
14:28 nahuel          it's only a z3950 serveR...
14:28 nahuel          so useless...
14:28 nahuel          that's not what users needs
14:30 kf              I saw chris was working on pazpar2 and I had a question about federated search
14:30 gmcharlt        useless?  that's a little too string of a statement
14:30 gmcharlt        I'm not against *adding* support for other searchings, including Solr
14:31 kf              zebra is not that bad
14:31 nahuel          zebra is _not_ a search engine
14:31 nahuel          it doesn't answer what user wants/needs
14:31 nahuel          zebra doesn't  provide google like search
14:32 nahuel          koha must parse user search to generate something like a google pseudo-like search...
14:32 nahuel          (a pseudo-google-like-search)
14:33 nahuel          it's not the job of koha to parse user search queries
14:33 nahuel          that is a fact
14:33 gmcharlt        kyle: well, there is a place for a search subsystem that is purely in-database (a la Evergreen) w/o external dependencies, but the current NoZebra implementation I would argue should be scrapped and replaced
14:33 gmcharlt        nahuel: that is an opinion
14:34 nahuel          I think it's _the_ opinion ;)
14:34 gmcharlt        there are library search domain semantics, including a hypothetical browse search, that can only work if Koha actually knows what it is searching for and how
14:35 nahuel          i'm tired finding problems with search in koha
14:35 nahuel          search parsing
14:35 nahuel          search indexes
14:35 nahuel          crash of zebra
14:35 nahuel          something that is not extensible easily
14:35 nahuel          etc...
14:36 gmcharlt        nahuel: which is why we're proposing to rewrite it in 3.4
14:36 gmcharlt        but extensibility does have to include support for Zebra as well as Solr and potentially other search engines
14:37 kyle            Agreed, I can always upgrade to zebra.
14:38 nahuel          don't think it's a good idea :)
14:38 jwagner         gmcharlt, I've finished updating all the bugzilla entries, I think.  Still need to go through the wiki integration page and add some more notes about dependencies, etc.
14:38 gmcharlt        cool
14:39 jwagner         We still have some features we're working on that aren't ready yet, so there will be some more coming out later.  But no more big batches like this, I hope.  (for jdavidb's sanity!)
14:39 jwagner         I had missed creating entries for a couple of these -- just created them & entered the branch names.
14:39 gmcharlt        jwagner: are there bugs for those features?  if not, RFCs and bugs would be a nicenees
14:40 jwagner         A couple of them have bugzilla entries, 4283 and 4236.  I'll have to cross-check my list to see if there are any more we missed.
14:41 jwagner         A couple of the branches also got missed being included in the release notes :-(
14:44 owen            Does anyone know where default_branch_circ_rules.holdallowed comes from? Where do you set it?
14:44 gmcharlt        via smart-rules.pl, as rule for default branch
14:46 owen            When I "select * from default_branch_circ_rules" I get
14:46 owen            | branchcode | maxissueqty | holdallowed |
14:46 owen            +------------+-------------+-------------+
14:46 owen            | APL        |          99 |           2 |
14:47 owen            When I look at smart-rules.pl, I don't see the number 2 anywhere
14:47 kf              I think its the value corresponds to the pulldown?
14:47 kf              from all libraries etc.
14:47 gmcharlt        right
14:48 owen            I get it, it's the "hold policy" number.
14:48 gmcharlt        yep - look around line 471 of admin/smart-rules.pl

14:57 cythrax         hi there, i attempted to uninstall my koha 3.05 today to install 3.04, but when i try to 'make' i get an error saying Can't open blib/KOHA_CONF_DIR/koha-conf.xml for read at rewrite-config.PL line 172., i have removed the /etc/koha folder . can anyone suggest what i need to do?
14:57 kmkale          bye all
15:00 * owen          is struggling to understand why he's not allowed to place a hold on a particular item type
15:01 owen            Oh wait, messed-up item type in that record.
15:06 owen            jwagner: I'm curious about the policy behind Bug 3508
15:06 munin           04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3508 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, kohaprogrammers@ptfs.com, ASSIGNED, Limit number of on-shelf holds per day
15:07 owen            Is that to deter some kind of behavior the library doesn't like?
15:08 cythrax         just incase someone finds this searching for the same error, using rm -rf ./blib followed by make clean solved that particular problem ;)
15:18 collum          The two recurring themes that our system has pertaining to hold shelves are behavior and lack of space.
15:28 jwagner         owen, sorry, was off on another screen.  We were asked for a feature to limit the number of on-shelf holds _per day_ that a patron could place, so that's what this is doing.
15:29 * owen          simply wonders what that library's patrons were doing to prompt the request
15:29 jwagner         That library's patrons place an _unbelievable_ number of holds in general.  They probably just wanted to slow it down a bit :-)
15:30 * owen          should stop wondering why libraries ask for weird things
15:31 jwagner         We Just Does What They Asks :-)
15:37 chris_n         $holds->apply_brakes($patron) maybe?
15:37 jwagner         probably
15:38 gmcharlt        why oh why does nobody ever implement the robotic-arm-to-slap-patrons interface?
15:42 chris_n         hehe
15:44 jwagner         gmcharlt, I'd prefer the automatic phaser, with sysprefs to control whether it's set to stun, seriously injure, or kill :-)
15:45 wizzyrea_laptop hehe
15:45 wizzyrea_laptop http://www.globalnerdy.com/2010/05/09/new-programming-jargon/
15:46 jwagner         ooooo, I LIKE bugfoot -- can we adopt that one?
15:46 wizzyrea_laptop hehe
15:48 owen            nengard's Amazon content bug was a bugfoot until kf reproduced it
15:48 nengard         WOO HOO - I'm not alone???
15:48 kf              no
15:48 kf              I wrote to the mailing list
15:48 wizzyrea_laptop lol, hindenbug
15:48 nengard         i actually forgot about that :)
15:48 kf              tss :)
15:49 kf              but bugfoot is nice
15:49 nengard         can someone take a look at this page: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Authority_control_improvements_RFC and tell me why the heading is linking??
15:49 kf              I cant reproduce my import breaks umlauts in callnumbers
15:49 nengard         or make it stop linking on their own :)
15:49 kf              but we have this problem in 2 databases...
15:49 * kf            is not a friend of mediawiki
15:52 nengard         kf - me neither
15:54 kf              so why have we switched to mediawiki?
15:54 owen            nengard: You mean the "RFC 3" part?
15:54 nengard         yes
15:54 owen            I'll bet it's some kind of Mediawiki plugin which automatically links RFCs
15:54 owen            Like Bugzilla will automatically link "Bug 23" to the correct bug in comments
15:54 munin           04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23 normal, P2, ---, tonnesen@cmsd.bc.ca, RESOLVED FIXED, Virtual Bookshelfs not functional
15:56 wizzyrea_laptop I changed it to 3.2 RFC and it's better
15:56 owen            "At the moment all occurences of "RFC nnnn" in Wikipedia are automagically linked to http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfcnnnn.txt for numbers nnnn."
15:56 owen            http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_talk:Rfcurl
15:56 owen            http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:RFC
15:57 owen            "If you do not want this behaviour, put something like <nowiki>RFC</nowiki>  in your wikitext"
15:57 nengard         strane
15:57 nengard         strange
16:02 chris_n         ahh... lunch :)
16:03 gmcharlt        nengard: I've disabled the RFC auto-linking
16:04 nengard         oo :) thanks
16:04 nengard         why would they do that?
16:05 gmcharlt        just a bit of hardcoded stuff from wikipedia
16:16 jcamins         I inadvertantly tried to clone git.koha-community.org over http, and I got an error: fatal: http://git.koha-community.org/koha.git/info/refs not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server?
16:16 jcamins         I'm not sure who I should notify about that.
16:25 kf              ok, tomorrow is holiday - will be back friday :)
16:25 kf              bye all!
16:28 gmcharlt        jcamins: I've updated it
16:28 gmcharlt        clone-over-http shoudl work now
16:28 jcamins         Good, thanks.
16:44 owen            I notice opac-detail.pl handles enhanced content a little differently for each source
16:44 owen            For instance, it says "use C4::External::Amazon;"
16:44 owen            But then below it says "if (C4::Context->preference('BakerTaylorEnabled')) {"
16:44 owen            ... "require C4::External::BakerTaylor;"
16:45 owen            Is the latter more efficient?
16:54 chris_n         the latter only loads the module if it is needed
16:54 chris_n         sort of like autouse
16:55 * owen          doesn't know what autouse is
16:55 chris_n         iiuc
16:55 chris_n         perldoc autouse
16:56 chris_n         or http://perldoc.perl.org/autouse.html
16:57 owen            chris_n in the opac-detail.pl example why is the BakerTaylorEnabled check wrapped in "BEGIN {" ?
16:58 chris_n         that ensures that it executes prior to the rest of the code being compiled
16:59 owen            Is there any reason not to put the call to C4::External::Amazon in the same kind of conditional?
16:59 chris_n         probably not
17:28 rhcl            Hey kyle
17:29 rhcl            Just emailed you.
17:31 kyle            rhcl: fixed.
17:31 kyle            rchl: more to do still
17:32 * chris_n       sends kyle a bunch of emails :)
17:32 jcamins         Has anyone ever gotten the error "fatal: cannot convert from UTF-8utf-8 to UTF-8" when trying to do a rebase?
17:34 kyle            rhcl: fixed again ; )
17:35 kyle            chris_n: haven't got'em yet, but I'll be on the lookout.
17:39 alreadygone     hi, how do I install Koha on Slackware 13?
17:40 cait            hi #koha
17:41 alreadygone     hi cait
17:42 alreadygone     do you use koha on Linux?
17:42 wizzyrea_laptop alreadygone: http://fleksem.klf.uw.edu.pl/~rm/koha.html
17:42 wizzyrea_laptop now, this is the last version
17:43 wizzyrea_laptop so it's probably different
17:43 wizzyrea_laptop most people use debian/ubuntu
17:43 alreadygone     thanks a million wizzyrea_laptop
17:44 wizzyrea_laptop not many at all use it on slackware (that I know of)
17:46 alreadygone     well, I use only Slackware... I'll try to install. let's see
17:47 rhcl            Kyle: now you have to create a category...
17:59 alreadygone     DBD::mysql and MARC::Record are installed.... now installing the remaining things
17:59 kyle            rchl: done.

21:02 cait1           hi :)
21:02 cait1           working on translation problems
21:02 cait1           I noticed that a lot of javascript error messages are not translated
21:03 cait1           does it make sense to work on that?
21:03 nengard         hi jo
21:04 gmcharlt        cait1: yes - straightforward to fix
21:04 cait1           for 3.2?
21:05 cait1           I saw that there is something planned for javascript in 3.4, so was not sure
21:10 gmcharlt        cait: 3.2 is fine
21:11 cait            gmcharlt: thx :)
21:38 cait            can someone try to add an authorized value in current head?
21:38 cait            I can not add authorized values - not sure its a problem with my installation
21:39 jo              I can
21:39 jo              will check what version we are running ... actually Chris will know

21:40 cait            ok
21:42 cait            perhaps a problem with my database?
21:42 gmcharlt        anything in the error log?  there was an earlier bug at one point
21:43 cait            im missing a comlumn, the description for opac
21:43 cait            can I empty the database without deleting it? so I can get a clean database from the web installer?
21:44 gmcharlt        cait: you can just do
21:44 gmcharlt        ALTER TABLE authorised_values ADD COLUMN `lib_opac` VARCHAR(80) default NULL AFTER `lib`;
21:46 cait            gmcharlt: thx, it worked

22:15 chris           yeah thats a bug

22:15 chris           its on my list
22:15 chris           says 1 if there are 10, or 0

22:17 chris           im not sure its reported, i only spotted it a couple of days ago when doing a demo
22:18 cait            want me to add a bug?
22:18 chris           yes please
22:18 chris           i was thinking i might call a bug freeze for next friday?
22:18 chris           and import the bugs in bugs.koha-community.org then
22:19 cait            what will this mean? no bug reporting or changing? for how long?
22:19 chris           a day or so
22:19 cait            ah ok
22:19 chris           and then from then on, use the new site
22:19 cait            im in full bug reporting mode :)
22:20 cait            assign bug to you? default for acq is hdl

23:00 slef            oh yeah, google's site changes broke scroogle.org
23:00 slef            a lot of automated services used the old ie interface because it was easiest to parse
23:02 chilts          I think munin was broken before the recent Google changes
23:03 slef            Aren't incompatible API changes usually evil? ;-)
23:04 robin           chilts: yeah, but google changes fairly regularly. I wrote a scraper that worked with the PDA interface, and it was always breaking.
23:05 chilts          I'm not surprised, there's a different between scraping HTML and using an API
23:06 chilts          those search engines which rely on Google should use a CSE (Custom Search Engine)
