22:29 jwagner no problem -- sounds like a good improvement
22:28 pianohack k, thanks for your help
22:27 jwagner Ping me tomorrow if you want me to check
22:26 jwagner I have it for some sites, not for others. I'd have to go look on those servers & see what it does for multilibrary setups.
22:25 pianohack jwagner: Do you have independentbranches turned on for your libraries? That's the only time it filters out separate branches at all
22:24 jwagner I'm not logged into a system right now & can't remember -- do you have to select a branch when you run the report?
22:22 jwagner That might work.
22:22 pianohack I'll send a patch, and if it bounces, I'll revise :)
22:21 pianohack maybe just set a column on the branches table
22:21 jwagner (meaning it wouldn't work if you didn't run the report every day)
22:21 jwagner Maybe something like Holds-BRANCH with the timestamp? Wouldn't work if you're running druthb's cleanup script on the sessions table every night, though.
22:19 jwagner Hmmm. How about some kind of specially formatted entry in the sessions table? Would that confuse the system?
22:19 pianohack Probably per-library is best; it's not so much that they were seen as that they were seen and assumed to be dealt with
22:19 wizzyrea_ say you have 3 circ computers
22:19 wizzyrea_ yea, and which last run
22:19 jwagner It can't be a cookie or something on the workstation -- different staff at different desks can run this.
22:19 pianohack A hidden syspref would be nice, but is global for all libraries and staff
22:18 pianohack ahaha, well, there's the rub
22:18 jwagner pianohack, out of curiosity, how would you do that? Set a flag somewhere on the server?
22:18 wizzyrea_ theoretically it seems like a good idea
22:17 wizzyrea_ I don't feel like I can speak to that from a practical standpoint, since we don't use it :/
22:17 pianohack wizzyrea_: what do you think about since-report-last-run, just off the top of your head?
22:14 wizzyrea_ well I think that making it configurable is a good idea (just scrolled back)
22:13 jwagner Any other large libraries online? May need to float the idea in different time zones for feedback.
22:12 jwagner I had sent a patch a long time ago to change the default date range from 10 years to 2 days (1 day? I forget). pianohack wants a longer range for his library.
22:12 wizzyrea_ ohhh... we don't use that one, we use the hold queue and the holds awaiting pickup reports
22:11 jwagner Holds to pull -- we're talking about the default date range.
22:10 wizzyrea_ which report is this? sorry I haven't been following all too closely
22:09 jwagner wizzyrea_, you online? What would your libraries think?
22:09 jwagner Oh, YES -- I think that would be the best solution. But I don't work in a library & run this myself in a work environment, so I'd pass that idea by some other folks for comment too.
22:09 pianohack It automatically adjusts for small libraries like ours that run the report weekly, and huge ones that run it twice a day :)
22:08 pianohack It would still have date granularity, so if the report was last run today, it would still show today's holds
22:08 pianohack Have it, by default, show holds that have appeared since the last time the report was run
22:08 jwagner Go for it (my bolder side says)!
22:08 * jwagner cowers in fear
22:08 pianohack Are you in a crazy idea mode?
22:08 pianohack jwagner: I just had a crazy idea
22:04 jwagner I think I'm envisioning something like a web interface (through staff client) to a .conf-type file.
22:03 jwagner And even a configuration by library -- so branch A could have different settings from branch B
22:02 jwagner Trouble is (of course) the time to do it.
22:02 pianohack right
22:02 jwagner But we've talked at various times about moving some configuration out of individual sysprefs and into some kind of general module configuration. This would be another candidate for that kind of setup.
22:01 * jwagner isn't going there :-)
22:01 pianohack Less commits to rebase, right :/
22:00 jwagner I'm all for giving sites as much control over the behavior as possible.
22:00 pianohack Hrrng okay
22:00 jwagner I have some large libraries that think even 2 days is excessive.
22:00 jwagner I was just going to write that I'd love this to be a syspref :-) so sites could control it themselves.
22:00 pianohack yes
22:00 pianohack And I'd rather not add yet another tiny syspref
21:59 jwagner The default on the page?
21:59 pianohack I know the 10 years was excessive for large libraries
21:59 pianohack Would you be up for increasing the pendingreserves range slightly, to 4 days ago to today?
21:59 pianohack okay
21:59 jwagner Yes
21:58 pianohack jwagner: still around?
21:57 chris night cait
21:57 cait good night all :)
21:36 sekjal goodnight, #koha!
21:31 cait same xml parser problem I think
21:26 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4955 critical, P5, ---, henridamien, NEW, adding to basket with no item throws error
21:26 cait bug 4955
21:26 pianohack office_politics--
21:23 chris thats not really bad news, 500 errors are normally much easier to fix than 3rd party xml parsing errors :)
21:22 chris check the error log
21:22 cait bad news: error 500 page instead of parser error
21:21 cait :)
21:21 chris i am the xml dictator
21:20 cait chris made me change my xml parser settings, hope that will kill the other error I saw
21:19 hdl cait: so do i
21:18 cait hdl: edit links show as root, as superlibrarian without additional permissions and with all permissions. will check my user at work tomorrow for missing permissions. perhaps I forgot to add permissions after update - hope it can be solved that easily!
21:14 chris :)
21:12 jcamins I guess I'll strengthen my note about not recommending FreeBSD for Koha on the wiki.
21:11 jcamins So it would seem.
21:10 chris jcamins: so it installs on precisely 1 freebsd machine? :)
21:09 jcamins Apparently the script that I carefully crafted to install Koha on FreeBSD doesn't actually work on other computers.
21:03 chris heh
21:02 cait but not trying to make that happen
21:01 cait :)
21:01 cait oh, its really easy
21:01 chris who could get angry with you?? :)
20:59 cait I hope so, dont want to make people get angry with me :)
20:58 chris if you see what i mean
20:58 chris they are much better than not reported ones
20:58 chris bugs that turn out to be invalid, are no problem
20:58 chris thats great
20:55 cait filing a lot of bugs, just trying to get everything written down I see
20:54 chris oh yes, that would make sense
20:54 cait but got a perl error before I saved... more tests needed
20:54 cait hm, will check
20:54 hdl cait: permissions, rights on the budget ?
20:53 cait hdl: Im really confused now - I see a link now to modify my order. not sure what differnt in this installation compared to my installation at work. will try to find out more tomorrow.
20:42 jcamins Should I have said something about NoZebra being deprecated?
20:40 jcamins Good luck.
20:40 CGI369 Thanks. Thanks again for all of the help everyone. I'm sure I'll be back asking for help in the future
20:39 jcamins Ctrl-X Ctrl-C
20:38 CGI369 It looks like I'm adjusting the bash code
20:37 CGI369 how do I exit bash without messing it up?
20:35 CGI369 Is it basically database maintenance?
20:35 jcamins It creates the indexes that you're searching.
20:35 CGI369 What does reindexing actually do?
20:34 CGI369 I think I'll just pass on that last step and just remember to input the two commands in the future...I don't want to get too confused or complicated. Thanks a ton to all of you though!
20:32 jcamins Yes, exit nano.
20:32 chris Hi richard
20:32 jcamins It will add those two lines to the end of your .bashrc file.
20:31 richard hi
20:31 CGI369 do I need to exit out of nano first?
20:30 CGI369 what does that do?
20:30 pianohack Run echo -e 'export PERL5LIB=/home/koha/kohaclone\nexport KOHA_CONF=/home/koha/koha-dev/etc/koha-conf.xml' | tee -a ~/.bashrc
20:30 CGI369 pianohack: what is it?
20:29 pianohack Oh, hey, I know
20:29 pianohack CGI369: Yes, you can, though it sounds like something strange is going on
20:28 CGI369 I can't see my cursor...I'm just going to exit and remember to input the other two commands before reindexing in the future. Can I do that?
20:28 chris U up for showing crontab -e next pianohack?
20:26 pianohack Then add each one of the export commands on a new line by themselves
20:26 pianohack Hold the down arrow until you get to the bottom of the file
20:26 pianohack CGI369: Once you have the file open
20:26 pianohack I don't care, I'm only a grammar nazi for myself and those who ask ;)
20:25 pianohack There should already be stuff in the file
20:25 chris On bus so can't type good and stuff
20:25 pianohack Ah, nano ~/.bashrc
20:25 CGI369 So I should input "nano ~/.bashr" and then what?
20:24 chris Cos for performance its crucial to fix
20:24 chris We should bug any circular dependencies we have
20:24 pianohack CGI369: Yes
20:24 chris I think yes
20:24 CGI369 pianohack: if I don't do what you suggest, will I simply need to input those two commands each time I want to reindex?
20:23 pianohack Just wondering if that was the reason that you sometimes have to write C4::Module::sub instead of sub for no good reason
20:23 chris Chocolate fish for any u fix
20:23 chris Yeah
20:23 chris Stop us doing persistance
20:23 pianohack Right, memory leaks, architectural nastiness, etc.
20:23 chris They are bad in other ways
20:22 chris Sometimes
20:22 pianohack CGI369: Run nano ~/.bashrc
20:22 pianohack chris: You're the perl guru; do circular dependencies cause those random within-module undefined sub problems?
20:22 CGI369 How do I do that?
20:21 pianohack CGI369: Add them to the end of /home/koha/.bashrc
20:20 CGI369 The two earlier steps I'm asking about are "export PERL5LIB=/home/koha/kohaclone" and "export KOHA_CONF=/home/koha/koha-dev/et/koha-conf.xml"...do I need to input those two commands every time before I reindex w/ "perl rebuild_nozebra.pl" in the future?
20:17 chris So not at busy times :)
20:16 chris But a reindex stops searching while its done
20:16 CGI369 Ok. Often...daily or at least weekly. When I do reindex, do I only need to scroll down the directory to "migration_tools" and input "perl rebuild_nozebra.pl"? Or do I need to go through the other two steps first?
20:16 jcamins Ah.
20:16 chris It indexes as it goes
20:15 jcamins Is there an option for anything other than a total reindex? I've never used NoZebra, of course.
20:15 chris A totaly reindex, id cron it to run at midnight once a week
20:15 wizzyrea_ ok, you'll have to forgive me, I'm pretty sure on my nozebra system we have to run an index to have items show in the search
20:15 jcamins My inclination would be to say "daily."
20:14 CGI369 So how often should I reindex with that amount?
20:14 CGI369 I only have 9 records now but will have around 4000-5000 after I've input everything from our library
20:12 wizzyrea_ lol
20:11 jcamins How many records do you have?
20:11 CGI369 How often should I reindex in the future?
20:11 wizzyrea_ yay!
20:11 CGI369 The error doesn't come up anymore! You guys rock!
20:09 CGI369 looks like it worked! Now I'll check if that same error occurs when I search certain terms
20:08 wizzyrea_ yep
20:08 CGI369 So now should I try "perl rebuild_nozebra.pl" again?
20:07 jcamins Exactly.
20:07 wizzyrea_ yep
20:07 CGI369 Is "export KOHA_CONF=/home/koha/koha-dev/etc/koha-conf.xml" the next step?
20:07 CGI369 (Sincere thanks to all of you for your patience and help)
20:05 CGI369 After "export PERL5LIB=/home/koha/kohaclone", I input "export KOHA_CONF=/home/koha/koha-dev/etc/koha-conf.xml"?
20:05 jcamins CGI369: No need to return to home.
20:04 wizzyrea_ so export KOHA_CONF=/home/koha/koha-dev/etc/koha-conf.xml
20:04 CGI369 Should I first scroll back up the directory to home?
20:04 pianohack CGI369: So your KOHA_CONF is likely in /home/koha/koha-dev/etc/koha-conf.xml
20:04 wizzyrea_ ^^
20:03 wizzyrea_ no quotes of course, but yes
20:03 jcamins export PERL5LIB=/home/koha/kohaclone
20:03 CGI369 (*first thing)
20:03 CGI369 so the firs thing i should input at this point is "export PERL5LIB=/path/to/koha/kohaclone"?
20:02 jcamins Yup. So the path to koha is /home/koha/kohaclone
20:02 wizzyrea_ ah a dev install
20:02 CGI369 does that help?
20:02 CGI369 "/home/koha/kohaclone/misc/migration_tools" is what came up for the first
20:02 jcamins find / -name koha-conf.xml -print
20:01 jcamins And the following will help you find the second:
20:01 jcamins pwd will tell you what the first is.
20:00 CGI369 how do I find out wha the paths are?
20:00 wizzyrea_ yep
20:00 pianohack Though you have to find out what those two paths actually are first
19:59 wizzyrea_ so, according to the faq, you would "export PERL5LIB=/path/to/koha" and "export KOHA_CONF=/path/to/koha-conf.xml"
19:57 wizzyrea_ print working directory
19:57 CGI369 jcamins: what is "pwd"?
19:57 wizzyrea_ http://koha-community.org/documentation/faq/searching/#18
19:57 pianohack CGI369: Does the directory /usr/lib/koha/C4 exist?
19:57 jcamins What is the result of running the command pwd?
19:55 CGI369 jcamins and wizzyrea: how do I set those?
19:55 CGI369 pianohack: I believe so
19:55 wizzyrea_ ^^ you'll need to set the ENV vars
19:55 jcamins When you installed Koha, it should have told you what to set them to.
19:55 pianohack CGI369: What kind of installation did you do? The default?
19:54 jcamins You'll need to set your PERL5LIB and KOHACONF variables.
19:54 jcamins Oh.
19:54 CGI369 It said "Can't locate C4/Context.pm in @INC..."
19:53 wizzyrea_ can you be specific about how it failed?
19:53 jcamins perl ./rebuild_nozebra.pl
19:52 CGI369 I tried that as well and it failed...
19:51 wizzyrea_ you probably need to perl rebuild_nezebra.pl
19:51 CGI369 I got down to migration_tools and input "rebuild_nozebra.pl" but it said "command not found"
19:50 cait perhaps choose a better name with /name
19:49 CGI369 So I was just on here as "CGI1745"...
19:41 cait :)
19:41 wizzyrea_ hehe
19:40 jcamins wizzyrea_: I'm impressed you got that close. I just know the directory as mi<tab>mi<tab>
19:40 CGI745 ok, I'll try that and be back in a few minutes
19:40 wizzyrea_ l
19:40 wizzyrea_ ^^ that, yes lo
19:40 jcamins (I just checked)
19:39 jcamins migration_tools
19:39 wizzyrea_ er migration-tools (sorry I'm not right in front of my install atm)
19:38 wizzyrea_ right, it's located in misc/migration/tools
19:38 CGI745 so should I input "rebuild_nozebra.pl script" from the command line?
19:38 wizzyrea_ it would be rebuild_nozebra.pl -b or somesuch
19:37 wizzyrea_ no, I think that's incorrect
19:37 jcamins Well, there's also a rebuild_nozebra.pl script.
19:37 CGI745 Since I'm not using Zebra, I do not need to reindex. Correct?
19:36 CGI745 Actually, I'm positive we aren't using Zebra
19:35 CGI745 I'm pretty sure we aren't using zebra
19:34 wizzyrea_ usually it would be something like rebuild_zebra.pl -b -r -v
19:32 CGI745 I'm still pretty new at this and am not very computer savvy. How do I "reindex"?
19:31 wizzyrea_ usually a full reindex fixes it
19:31 * wizzyrea_ has seen this many times in our catalog
19:31 wizzyrea_ I would try to reindex and see if there are any errors,
19:31 wizzyrea_ 745: that is usually a bad record
19:30 jcamins Are you using Zebra?
19:30 CGI745 The weird things is that it allows me to search other terms
19:29 CGI745 I have Koha 3.01
19:29 CGI745 Error: Can't call method "as_usmarc" on an undefined value at /home/koha/kohaclone/C4/Search.pm line 2384.
19:29 cait which error message? what koha version do you use? did you change something?
19:28 CGI745 Suddenly my Koha system won't let me search "history" and other specific words in the catalog. I had been able to search for these terms earlier in the day but now it brings up an error message. Any suggestions?
19:23 chris :)
19:23 chris hopefully have a solution by the time europe wakes up again, or at least know where to start
19:23 cait ok, let me first finish this mail
19:23 chris (the bug that is)
19:22 chris then if i find anything i can update it
19:22 chris cool thank you
19:22 cait really tired today, but will try to file a bug later
19:22 chris cait: id file the bug anyway
19:22 cait wanted to test a bit more, perhaps with different settings for item creation
19:22 hdl have you filed a bug?
19:22 cait I wanted to do more testing today, but training session and travel plans for next week stole my time
19:21 cait hdl: and should be repaired before 3.2 in my opinion
19:21 cait hdl: yes, if I dont missed something its bad
19:21 jwagner There are limits on curses? Rationing?
19:20 chris heh
19:20 pianohack I might be running low on my curses and death for the day
19:20 pianohack Bleh, will probably have to hack at this in single-user mode. Curse you upstart!
19:19 hdl mmmm... bad thing i think.
19:19 chris_n nothing in daemon.log
19:19 hdl cait: sawwhat you wrote at 20:49
19:19 chris pianohack: the main apache2 error log shows it starting
19:17 chris_n om
19:17 chris_n yup
19:17 pianohack I was just wondering whether anything showed up in daemon.log or similar when they got started
19:17 pianohack chris_n: Actually, are you on one of these ubuntu machines at the moment?
19:16 pianohack Death to weird init bugs!
19:16 * chris_n hands pianohack a bigger hammer
19:16 pianohack chris_n: Okay, so it's likely this laptop. Thanks, all
19:15 chris_n pianohack: koha worked fine out-of-box on ubuntu here (several times in fact)
19:13 * magnus heads out to the little cabin in the woods again, for some more of that summer holiday...
19:13 magnus chris: very, very cool!
19:11 chris ill try to get some time today to look at it
19:10 magnus chris: could be, i'm afraid it's a bit above me
19:10 chris but thats just a guess without reading the code
19:10 chris magnus: sounds to me like the script is losing its db connection when processing, and not handling that cleanly
19:09 * jwagner thinks we should be careful about punching out :-)
19:08 cait :)
19:08 chris heh, its funny how we catch buses around the same time, me to work, druthb home :) we should punch in and punch out :)
19:07 magnus cait: cool!
19:07 * druthb is off to catch the bus.
19:05 chris yay!
19:05 cait ah, ok. writing joann a mail now and asking if threre is room for one more :)
19:02 magnus yep
19:01 cait are you signed up for the road trip?
19:00 magnus cait: a bit... ;-)
19:00 cait magnus: around?
18:59 cait I installed ubuntu with apache, mysql, ssh and it worked right from start
18:58 chris i dont recall havng to do anything special on my laptop
18:58 jcamins If you're using regular Ubuntu, I seem to recall there being some GNOME control panel applet that does the trick.
18:57 pianohack Grr, okay. update-rc.d and dpkg-reconfigure have both failed to solve the problem, so I'll have to see if I can figure out what's what
18:56 chris yes
18:56 pianohack wizzyrea_ or anyone else with koha on an ubuntu personal machine: do you have apache2 successfully starting on boot?
18:56 jcamins Morning.
18:55 pianohack good morning, chris
18:54 cait morning chris
18:53 chris smorning
18:50 cait hm hope I did not scare her away :(
18:49 nengard i have to log off now though .. sorry
18:49 nengard yea - it was a feature that has now disappeared
18:49 cait nengard: I was not able to edit an order - perhaps it has to do with item creation? but I think its a really bad thing. you can for example not find out which fund you chose, not all information from the order is shown on the screen after you saved.
18:47 cait nengard: funny, I was asking hdl about editing baskets/orders the moment I saw your mail on the list
18:47 cait hi nengard
18:44 nengard howdy
18:44 druthb hi, nengard! :D
18:18 pianohack Skip some typing in git send-email
18:18 pianohack Handy tip for anyone who only sends koha patches to the list: git config sendemail.to koha-patches@lists.koha-community.org
18:18 munin druthb: Karma for "jwagner" has been increased 37 times and decreased 0 times for a total karma of 37.
18:18 druthb @karma jwagner
18:18 munin druthb: Karma for "druthb" has been increased 35 times and decreased 0 times for a total karma of 35.
18:18 druthb @karma druthb
18:15 jwagner cait, thanks. I try to stay out of discussions as a rule, but...
18:15 * gmcharlt is still looking for your missing "er"
18:14 pianohack Okay, that's what I thought, thanks gmcharlt
18:14 gmcharlt pianohack: koha-patches@lists.koha-community.org
18:14 pianohack Quick to type, but I know we don't admin it anymore
18:14 cait :) druthb++
18:14 pianohack Are we trying to phase out patches@koha.org?
18:13 druthb Let's see...jwagner has "harrumph!", cait has "hmpf", and wizzyrea has assorted squee-ing sounds. Gonna have to find one all my own.
18:13 cait jwagner++ you make some good points
18:08 cait ey, hmpf is mine :)
18:07 * druthb hmpf-s back at cait.
18:06 cait hmpf. low battery.
18:06 magnus i'll include your comments
18:06 magnus hm, i'm gonna have to just report the bug for now...
18:05 pianohack No reason to have both, I don't think
18:05 pianohack magnus: You might consider just replacing chomp entirely with s/[\r\n]*$//g
18:05 gmcharlt s/\r$//g; would be slightly more precise
18:04 magnus adding $command_line =~ s/\r//g; solves it
18:04 magnus yup
18:04 pianohack linux server, windows client?
18:04 pianohack magnus: All chomp does is remove the line ending on the platform you're running on
18:04 magnus pianohack: probably
18:03 pianohack magnus: Are these windows-style \r\n lines?
18:01 druthb thanks, collum! :)
17:59 magnus chomp() seems to be leaving an \r at the end of the barcodes...
17:59 magnus :-)
17:58 jwagner Yay magnus!
17:58 * magnus finally figured out the koc-problem - bugzilla here i come!
17:57 * cait starts reading
17:57 fredericd Even if it's what I'd prefer to do
17:57 jwagner Feel free
17:56 fredericd It will be difficult now not to reply
17:56 jwagner fredericd, I can understand that, but your original message (with your name) went out to the list. I just quoted it.
17:55 fredericd jwagner: Reading mailing list... I should have prefered not to see my name embedded into your email :-(

17:31 pianohack Hi druthb
17:21 cait :)
17:21 druthb welcome back, cait. :)
17:21 cait hi all
17:20 druthb hi, pianohack and hdl! :D
16:43 mib_071gn ok, thanks anyway!
16:42 jcamins We never got 3.0.x to work.
16:42 jcamins I don't know, sorry.
16:42 mib_071gn That fix didn't work for me. Is there any way to change index type from dom to grs etc?
16:32 wizzyrea_ catalyst/linode, I believe
16:31 owen Can someone remind me who is now hosting Bugzilla?
16:31 jwagner We'll have to do some experimenting.
16:31 jcamins Don't thank me yet... I could be wrong.
16:31 jwagner Sorry, that was jcamins I needed to thank -- got confused on the screen.
16:30 jwagner kf, thanks. We'll find out....
16:30 mib_071gn just doing that now! will let you know.......
16:29 jcamins mib_071gn: Did you try the fix that is described in that bug report?
16:27 kf bye all :)
16:27 mib_071gn 3.06
16:27 kf sorry, I have to run, too late to be still at work
16:27 jcamins mib_071gn: What version of Koha are you running?
16:26 kf no, we run a development version of 3.2
16:25 mib_071gn do you mean 3.06?
16:24 kf it works in our 3.1.61 - which is older thant he bug
16:24 kf not sure this is stil the problem
16:23 kf http://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/2009-November/021216.html
16:23 mib_071gn Just looking at the bug database and it appears to be a bug (3072) - nightmare!
16:22 kf mib_071gn: I think there is your problem, the index is not ok
16:20 jcamins jwagner: barcode isn't the primary key (thank goodness!), so Koha should be fine.
16:20 mib_071gn yeah, I did that when I ran it a minute ago, it does say it added records but doesn't say what they were, a lot of these errors too ----->>>17:15:12-08/07 zebraidx(22403) [warn] Index 'Heading-Main' not found in attset(s)
16:19 kf to see if authorities are indexed
16:19 kf ran = run
16:18 kf hm, perhaps try and ran -a and -v for verbose
16:18 mib_071gn Thanks - that is also not working
16:17 kf More > Authorities
16:17 jwagner Hmmmm. If I turn the autoMemberNum syspref off (i.e., don't automatically generate patron barcodes), and import a .csv file that doesn't have a barcode (long story), is Koha going to choke?
16:15 mib_071gn OK, that zebra rebuild didn't make a difference - when you say search in Authorities Screen, where do you mean?
16:10 kf jcamins: :)
16:10 jwagner jcamins, good to hear.
16:10 jcamins (yesterday we were trying to figure out why searches with diacritics didn't seem to bring up one record)
16:10 jcamins jwagner, kf: It turns out my problem with searching for diacritics was a misconfiguration on our part. ByWater got us a server set up, and the searches work exactly the way they should.
16:09 mib_071gn Just checking........
16:08 jcamins Actually, we should probably check... are you able to search for authorities in the authorities screen?
16:08 jcamins That will rebuild the authorities index.
16:08 mib_071gn I am using -b -z -a in my cron - running every 2 mins
16:08 jcamins You could try running rebuild_zebra.pl -a -r
16:07 kf magnus is right, you need -b -a for bibliographic and authority records - we use authorities .)
16:07 mib_071gn just gonna check my crontab now......
16:06 magnus i've never used authorities, but have you indexed them with something like "rebuild_zebra.pl -a"?
16:06 jcamins Right.
16:06 mib_071gn do you mean I made sure I searched for authorites that exist?
16:05 jcamins You made sure that the authorities you're search for are the ones you entered in?
16:05 mib_071gn even though there are authorities setup
16:05 mib_071gn whatever I search for in this box, the results are always 0
16:05 jcamins Right.
16:05 mib_071gn In this box I should be able to search for author authorites and link it to the new bib
16:04 jcamins Right.
16:04 mib_071gn When adding a new bib record and select the 245 tag $a I can click the "..." button to bring up another box........
16:03 jcamins What is it you're trying to do? I don't really use authorities correctly, yet, but a second set of eyes might help.
16:01 mib_071gn Anyone!
15:47 mib_071gn Author authorities
15:47 mib_071gn in the Authorites link page
15:46 mib_071gn Well its more to do with the Authorities not being there when I try adding a new bib
15:46 hdl what kind of authorities ?
15:44 mib_071gn 'lo all - any Authorities experts around willing to lend a hand?
15:25 magnus not my best koha day. been researching my koc-problem on a vm, and now suddenly i get "Syck parser (line 2485, column 14): syntax error at /usr/lib/perl5/YAML/Syck.pm line 71." hrmpf?!?
15:20 jcamins Okay, as long as I'm not doing something stupid.
15:20 wizzyrea_ ya, then it's not that. it's the bug
15:20 jcamins Ah.
15:20 jcamins Well, my user has superlibrarian.
15:20 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4498 normal, P5, ---, chris, NEW, Acq always shows '1 suggestions waiting'
15:20 sekjal bug 4498
15:20 wizzyrea_ like, if you log in as superlibrarian do you see it?
15:19 wizzyrea_ is it perhaps that you are logged in as the wrong branch?
15:19 sekjal jcamins: that's a known bug, I believe
15:19 jcamins Does anyone have any idea why our catalog would say "1 suggestions waiting" when I'm in the acquisitions module, but when I click that link, none show up?
14:30 owen Okay Genji never mind. kf is right--it just displays twice, it's not two which conflict
14:28 Genji only opaclanguagesdisplay at the top of opac section
14:28 kf owen: they work, just 2 entries
14:27 owen At the top of the page
14:27 Genji the search for/
14:27 Genji err
14:26 Genji wheres opaclanguagesdisplay?
14:26 owen If one was off and one was on which one would win?
14:25 kf owen: there is a patch from nicole for that problem, but not pushed yet
14:24 owen Genji, can you try doing a search in system preferences for "opaclanguagesdisplay" ?
14:23 owen I notice my system preferences list opaclanguagesdisplay twice. I wonder if that is related.
14:20 Genji opac languages and intranet languages are both selected, and saved.
14:19 kf and opaclanguages are selected?
14:13 Genji yes, opac section - language display set to on.
14:12 kf Genji: is opaclanguagedisplay on?
14:11 * owen sees the language-selection footer in both the OPAC and staff client in his test system running HEAD
14:11 owen Genji: OPAC or staff client?
14:10 Genji in koha 3.2
14:10 Genji for some reason, the language selection div is not showing...
13:49 Fred Thanks for your answers
13:48 Fred Sorry got to go, i will file a bug for that later
13:46 Fred does it come from copy/paste?
13:45 Fred ok i will check them to look for some other  s
13:41 kf Fred: I noticed that there are  s in pootle (translate.koha.org)
13:40 kf Fred: check your po files
13:34 wizzyrea_ Hi owen
13:34 owen Hi wizzyrea_
13:28 Fred the error is just a nbsp who magically appeared
13:26 owen Thanks druthb
13:26 druthb That's my understandin' anyway.
13:26 druthb correct. Anything that's the subject of an EXPORT in Dates.pm will be available for freebies, with "use C4::Dates". If you have some routine that is not EXPORTed, adding the "qw(format_date)" will guarantee it. You can also call non-EXPORTed routines the long way with: $foo = C4::Dates::format_date($params);
13:25 kf Fred: strange, im not aware of translation text in utils
13:24 owen druthb: So the "use C4::Dates" makes *some* of what's in Dates.pm available, and adding the "qw(format_date) ensures that format_date is available as well?
13:24 Fred which error doesn t exist in en version
13:23 druthb owen: It might not be EXPORTed from C4::Dates; I've seen that kind of behavior when that's the case.
13:22 Fred UNIMARCslimUtils.xsl in fr-FR version got a little error
13:19 kf Fred: what problem do you have?
13:18 Fred cause the error is inside a translated xsl file
13:18 owen Anyone up for a Perl question? If a script already has "use C4::Dates;," why would it complain about format_date being undefined? Is it always necessary to say "qw(format_date)" ?
13:17 Fred ok, for now i ve corrected it, but i am wondering about the origin of the error
13:17 magnus hdl: yeah, i'm just on a vm anyway, so i'll try that
13:16 hdl You have to enable that.
13:16 hdl magnus: mysql is not logging all transactions by default.
13:16 hdl If you happen to know what the problem is propose a solution.
13:16 magnus hdl: thanks, that was just too obvious for my poor brain... ;-)
13:15 hdl Fred file a bug on bugs.koha-community.org
13:15 Fred What to do if we find an error in a xsl stylesheet, i mean about reporting
13:15 hdl magnus: maybe in mysql logs
13:14 owen Hi Fred
13:11 Fred Hello
13:10 kf hi jcamins_a
13:07 jcamins_a Good morning, #koha

06:29 cait bye fredericd and Genji
06:29 cait ok, time for work, will be back later
06:27 cait there are a lot in acq :(
06:27 fredericd i would say minor
06:26 cait no suggestions? :)
06:23 cait which severity for translation bugs? non-translatable strings in acq
06:22 Genji oh... zebra truncation doesn't work with icuchain and rtl languages.
06:21 fredericd This issue is that Zebra ICU support is under-documented.
06:20 fredericd yes, same issue with any non-latin language
06:20 cait we had to deactivate some, I think the main problem is fuzzy
06:20 cait I think some search options dont work with icu or rtl languages
06:20 fredericd cait: Could you consult the octopus about Koha 3.2 release date?
06:19 Genji there is a perl stemming module for arabic
06:19 fredericd Any feedback from others is welcome!
06:19 fredericd we have several projects with Catalogs containing a lot of Arabic biblio records. So we will have to improve that part of Koha-Zebra
06:17 fredericd yes and not enough time. But I will retry later
06:17 Genji fredericd: too complex?
06:17 fredericd Genji: I started and stopped few days later...
06:17 cait or better, we needed it because of our Hebrew records, German works fine withoug icu
06:16 cait fredericd: we use it for Hebrew
06:16 cait fredericd: I think some documentation would be really useful
06:16 Genji fredericd: you know arabic grammer?
06:16 fredericd That's why it would be intersting to gather what's have been done
06:15 fredericd Yes, Arabic is different and not so simple
06:15 * Genji nods. "Arabic icu transliterate apparently does a bit of stemming.
06:14 cait to find ü as ue and make search without diacritics possible
06:14 cait I think we used this for icu: http://spedr.com/5hwak but have made some changes to transliteration files
06:13 cait octopus oracle: http://www.spiegel.de/international/zeitgeist/0,1518,704954,00.html
06:12 Genji fredericd: no, its not ducumented... i personally think its not enough to stem properly.
06:12 fredericd octopus?
06:12 fredericd I could be tricky and would be nice to have it directly into Koha
06:12 Genji ... no... people believed in the octopus.. and so it happened.
06:11 fredericd Genji: Is it documented somewhere?
06:11 cait yeah, the octopus oracle was right
06:10 Genji oh.... oh.. uhh.... shouldn't of allowed Octopus oracle paul a say.
06:09 Genji fredericd; apparently, its fine, they've got icu transliteration in place...
06:09 cait Genji: Germany:Spain 0:1
06:09 cait :) perhaps I am deeply affected ;)
06:09 Genji by what?
06:09 fredericd Don't forget to look deeply affected
06:07 cait not sure, Im still at home hiding
06:06 fredericd How is it in Germany today?
06:06 fredericd hello cait
06:05 cait good morning fredericd
06:04 fredericd Genji: Do you succeed in handling properly Arabic language with Koha and Zebra?
05:42 cait hi koha
04:22 Genji translation.... someone from Liblime doesn't like the koha community.
04:21 Genji serious answer to my question"
04:21 Genji large amount of code was a "humorous ad lib comment" rather than a
04:21 Genji of 4 or 5 years as the time for the community to integrate such a
04:21 Genji "Today, someone from Liblime contacted me to explain that the estimate
04:21 Genji ouch!
04:17 richard other non-latin languages, that is
04:17 richard nope. we just had a query about zebra not working for chinese text and i was wondering if there were similar problems with other languages
04:16 Genji you know arabic grammer, richard?
04:15 richard :)
04:15 Genji i have no idea why .. i can't read arabic. don't know what they do.
04:15 Genji 7 transliterate rules.
04:13 Genji just a few rules to transcode... but eh... they should be putting some stemming into the Search.pm stemming routine... but they're not.
04:12 richard Genji, do you have to do anything special for zebra to index arabic text?
04:12 chilts if you're lucky :)
04:12 chilts lol
04:10 Genji .. four to five years for LEK features to come into koha...
04:07 chris ah yeah, everything except yahoo mail that is :)
04:06 robin oh. That might be an issue, yeah.
04:06 Genji my koha list is coming to my yahoo mail account
04:06 robin everything does threading these days, I think.
04:06 chris mutt does an ok job of threading
04:05 Genji cause following conversations by flat is horrible.
04:05 chris its not a silly idea
04:05 Genji im thinking i need to move all my koha lists to my gmail account, to get the cool conversation threading thing happening.
04:04 chris yeah
04:02 Genji hmm.. Koha releases?
03:58 chris theres a whole thread on the mailing list over the last 2 days, tyring to explain why straying off the path just makes a mess
03:57 chris tell me about it
03:57 chris *nod*
03:55 Genji Its so difficult trying to get people to understand the upgrade path, and how its broken by editing the non-english templates... and what a headache it will cause me.
03:46 Genji1 ah
03:46 chris very little has been
03:46 chris http://translate.koha.org/ar/intranet3_1/
03:46 chris it may not have been translated in the .po file
03:45 Genji huh.. doesn't appear to have any arabic in it.
03:44 chris done
03:44 Genji chris++
03:44 Genji thanks
03:42 chris yep
03:40 Genji hrm.. would you be able to email me the produced arabic template?
03:31 chris yep, same here and yet it works fine
03:30 Genji 329kb
03:30 Genji 5446 lines.
03:30 Genji its huge? 300kb or so big..
03:28 chris so now you just have to figure out what is wrong with that file
03:28 Genji it installed fine.
03:28 Genji its just that one file.
03:28 Genji yea
03:27 Genji kay...
03:27 chris yep
03:27 Genji ?
03:27 Genji hrmm... move 007 out/
03:26 Genji right.. cause my LibXML version and my libxml versions dont match... but all the tests succeded.
03:26 chris and see if it does all the rest fine
03:26 chris move that file out of the en dir
03:26 chris heres something to try
03:26 chris nope, doesnt use that
03:26 chris ah true
03:26 Genji could it be something to dowith libxml?
03:26 robin without obviously chewing up ram
03:25 robin problem is, if there's a big malloc in there for some reason, it'll fail and gettext will crash if it doesn't expect it.
03:25 Genji goes from 113mb free to 98 mb free.
03:23 chris can you run top at the same time in another window, see if it runs out of ram
03:22 chris so yeah im suspecting ram
03:22 chris yep, same
03:21 Genji Locale::PO::VERSION 0.21
03:20 chris i have 3 gig
03:20 chris *nod*
03:20 robin That sounds a lot like running out RAM to me.
03:17 chris cos it certainly gets past there for me

03:16 Genji how do i find that out?
03:15 chris what version of Locale::PO do you have installed?
03:15 chris that'd be fine for running but that could be what is busting it
03:15 Genji how much do i need for a small koha library anyway?
03:14 chris wonder if thats it
03:14 Genji Mem: 1034896 916600 118296 0 332300 264560
03:14 Genji total used free shared buffers cached
03:14 chris how much ram do you have on that box?
03:12 Genji Segmentation fault

03:06 chris works for me
03:06 chris The install seems to be successful.

03:03 chris ar-Arab that is?
03:03 chris ar ?
03:02 Genji arabic - staff
03:02 Genji thanks.
03:02 chris master
03:02 chris ill try it right now
03:02 Genji err... in Head? r master?
03:02 chris easy then
03:01 Genji its the one in the koha 3.2 distro.
03:01 chris email me the .po file and ill test it
03:01 Genji hrm...
03:01 chris probably a really long string or something
03:01 Genji what would cause gettext to segfault then?
03:00 chris you have to work pretty hard to make perl segfault, the c libraries it use on the other hand
02:59 chris it will be gettext
02:59 chris it wont be it segfaulting
02:59 Genji anyway, what would cause tmpl_process to segfault?
02:59 Genji impressive
02:58 robin 5.8 seconds from scratch :)
02:58 chris :)
02:57 robin real 0m5.820s
02:57 robin ...
02:57 robin robin@kohadev:~$ time sudo koha-create --create-db newtest
02:57 robin Creating a koha installation the modern way:
02:56 Genji that is... tmpl_process3 segfaults.
02:56 Genji oh, by the way, translation of arabic staff po file fails on koha 3.2
02:21 chris check out from about line 57 on
02:21 chris http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=blob;f=koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/circ/selectbranchprinter.tmpl
02:18 * robin has a few things that are waiting on the move to replace that template engine.
02:17 Genji how do i do something like this?
02:15 chris no
02:15 Genji I'd want to do <!-- TMPL_IF NAME="jbranchid_<!-- TMPL_VAR NAME="jbranchid" -->" -->checked<!-- /TMPL_IF -->
02:15 Genji hiya all. with tmpl engine is it possible to have a tmpl_var inside the name element of a tmpl_if?
