00:00 rangi             i think swithc it back to needs signoff
00:00 jcamins_away      Obsolete the other two?
00:00 rangi             obsoleting all the others
00:00 rangi             yeah
00:05 jcamins_away      Okay, that's done.
00:05 jcamins_away      Time for dinner and Star Trek.
00:06 jcamins_away      Good night, #koha.
00:10 Shane-S_          I am off myself...time to relax...I spent my day off learning how to install...no wait... jcamins_away basically installed it...koha :)
00:10 Shane-S           and now system 2 :P bye all!
01:47 Space_Librarian   hello you lovely people - I've a silly question.
01:48 Space_Librarian   what do our patrons need to select to be notified of holds placed?
01:48 jcamins_away      I blame the Oompa Loompas.
01:48 jcamins_away      ^^ silly answer
01:48 Space_Librarian   I blame Storm Troopers
01:48 Space_Librarian   :)
01:48 ibeardslee        I was going to say 'pumpkin soup'
01:48 jcamins_away      I'm not sure.
01:49 Space_Librarian   Apparently no notification/confirmation of hold placed really is a big issue.
01:49 Space_Librarian   Trying to firefight and educate
01:50 ibeardslee        use the gassy end of the fire estinguisher to fight the fire and the heavy blunt end to educate
01:50 ibeardslee        extinguisher
01:50 Space_Librarian   that's the plan
01:57 Space_Librarian   seriously though. I've read the manual, and I've tweaked what I can. I know there's an email for holds to pick up, but is there one to confirm holds placed?
01:57 jcamins_away      Space_Librarian: I'm not sure.
01:58 Space_Librarian   glad it ain't just me... :)
01:58 jcamins_away      I don't think about circ much.
01:58 Space_Librarian   ping rangi - do you, oh oracle, know the answer?
02:25 mtj               Space_Librarian:  you want an email every time you place a hold?
02:26 mtj               s/you/a person/ :)
02:27 mtj               i think that may be a missing feature, currently....? :/   and hi! :)
02:27 Space_Librarian   The patron wants a confirmation email. The library email was getting spammed.
02:27 Space_Librarian   And hi!
02:28 mtj               aaah, so the feature is there-ish...
02:29 mtj               but the trick is to use the patrons email, not the default library-admin one
02:29 mtj               or both emails (of course)
02:33 Space_Librarian   and how would be do that?
02:36 mtj               hmmm, i might have to pass on that Q  the mo :/   i'm in the middle of something
02:36 mtj               its been a while since i looked at the email/notices stuff
02:39 mtj               try the Koha list first? ,  its possible someone has a workaround already
02:42 Space_Librarian   tis... :)
02:42 jcamins           I'm still trying to figure out why on earth someone would want that.
02:43 Space_Librarian   heavens knows.
02:43 Space_Librarian   these are accountants
02:44 jcamins           How does one do a class constant in Perl?
02:44 jcamins           Does one do class constants in Perl?
02:44 jcamins           Is this a profoundly bad idea?
02:45 * jcamins         is trying to centralize the single invisible pixel gif.
02:46 jcamins           Sorry, I didn't mean class constant. I meant package constant, apparently.
02:48 jcamins           I want to be able to have the following line work from scripts:  print C4::Images->noimage;
02:49 Space_Librarian   And can we rename "public list" to something else?
02:49 * Space_Librarian is going to go postal at people at work soon.
02:50 jcamins           Space_Librarian: you could use jQuery.
02:50 jcamins           Or a translation.
02:50 wahanui           a translation is done through the pref files
02:51 Space_Librarian   I need something quick and dirty for now. These people are being real pendants
02:51 jcamins           Space_Librarian: it could be done using jQuery, but I don't know off the top of my head the jQuery that would be necessary.
02:51 jcamins           What do they want them called?
02:52 jcamins           Oh, I can just do a sub that doesn't take any arguments.
02:53 Space_Librarian   They want it called "Informed Professional"
02:53 jcamins           Space_Librarian: what?
02:54 jcamins           Space_Librarian: that was a shocked "what?" not an "I didn't hear you" what.
02:54 Space_Librarian   The public list. They want it to be renamed "The Informed Professional"
02:54 Space_Librarian   Yes. I know.
02:54 Space_Librarian   This has been a day of stupidity.
02:54 Space_Librarian   And apparently I can make it all just so.
02:55 jcamins           heh.
02:55 jcamins           Gotta love go-lives.
02:55 Space_Librarian   Just because I can read code, doesn't mean I can code.
02:55 Space_Librarian   And we've been live for a while.
02:58 * jcamins         has learned that he's not actually very good at Scrabble.
02:59 jcamins           wizzyrea started out with twice my score, and she's maintained that... unfortunately, this means that she's now *way* ahead of me.
03:00 wizzyrea          actually, it has more to do with uh, leaving those triple word squares open :p
03:00 jcamins           I'm not trying!
03:00 jcamins           I mean, I'm not trying to leave them open.
03:00 jcamins           I just have no choice.
03:00 eythian           Space_Librarian: that should be easy to change with jquery
03:01 eythian           assuming it's got the IDs on the bits that say 'public list'
03:01 wizzyrea          and if there are no id's, we could add some for you :P
03:01 * wizzyrea        imagines id's on bits. giggles.
03:02 eythian           you can just do $("#theidofthething").setText("Informed Potato"); in the opacuserjs
03:02 * jcamins         giggles at the Informed Potato suggestion.
03:03 * wizzyrea        informs your potato
03:03 Space_Librarian   Well, I need to know where to go first. Pretty pissed off that they're demanding this now, with no previous warning, an hour before releasing the bulletin.
03:04 Space_Librarian   And I got into serious trouble for questioning the reasons for why this needs to be done anyway.
03:04 * Space_Librarian rolls eyes
03:04 eythian           Why don't they just call the list "Informed Professional - March 2012", that way public lists can be used for other things.
03:04 eythian           (I assume that's how they're intending to use it, right?)
03:05 wizzyrea          Space_Librarian: gimme a sec
03:05 Space_Librarian   because there are several small public lists that comprise the Informed Professional.
03:05 Space_Librarian   And your argument, eythian, was my argument
03:06 eythian           ah I see
03:06 Space_Librarian   sometimes the stupidity burns.
03:06 Space_Librarian   where'd that fire extinguisher go?
03:06 wizzyrea          so they want it to say "the informed professional" instead of "lists"
03:06 wizzyrea          just making sure I understand
03:07 wizzyrea          or instead of "public lists" *under* lists
03:09 Space_Librarian   wizzyrea: yes
03:09 Space_Librarian   preferably both, but since nobody can see the private lists, lists would be informed professional
03:21 wizzyrea          Space_Librarian: try $("h4:contains('Public Lists')").html("The Informed Professional");
03:21 wizzyrea          not as specific as I would like but the id's are slightly sparse there.
03:22 mtj               jcamins:  ps: i sorted my ajax template/translate problems nicely :)
03:22 jcamins           mtj: excellent!
03:22 mtj               was an easy solution, after a little thought
03:23 jcamins           Oh?
03:23 mtj               and you were on the right track too - define a JS function in the .tt file
03:24 jcamins           Yay!
03:24 mtj               so, the js function just gets translated with everything else in the template
03:24 mtj               pretty obv. really :)
03:25 jcamins           I have tried the fancy git PS1.
03:25 jcamins           I don't like it.
03:25 wizzyrea          ps1?
03:25 jcamins           Prompt.
03:27 jcamins           It's slow, and displays incorrect information.
03:28 jcamins           So, not really beneficial here.
03:37 Amit_Gupta        hye bag
03:54 jcamins           bag: you might want to consider testing bug 7092. I use a different ICU configuration than ByWater.
03:54 huginn            04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7092 normal, P5 - low, ---, magnus, Signed Off , Complete-subfield searches TraceCompleteSubfields syspref not working correctly
03:54 eythian           So as part of my series of rants titled "No proprietary library software can export unambiguously parsable CSV", I now introduce this one that exports as XML. _Invalid_ XML, mind you.
03:54 jcamins           Well done!
03:55 wizzyrea          lerd.
03:55 jcamins           And that's with the "CSV" option?
03:55 jcamins           :)
04:01 eythian           jcamins: no, it's quite horrible really. The only way we can get data out is by running a report that luckily has an option for XML.
04:02 eythian           I'm going to be relinking items and biblios by using title/author/publication info as there's no unique ID to match them
04:02 jcamins           Oh, lovely.
04:03 * druthb          shudders.
04:04 eythian           yeah.
04:04 eythian           I'm hoping that over the next wee while, we eradicate this software from the country.
04:11 druthb            [off] I have a few different ILSes I'd like to eradicate from this country, but it's gonna take more than a wee while.
04:14 eythian           This one is only in use in a handful of places that I know about.
04:16 wizzyrea          dare we ask
04:16 wizzyrea          what it is
04:17 eythian           .eLM
04:17 Space_Librarian   lol. ouch
04:18 eythian           yep.
04:18 eythian           It's a bit of a strange system
04:18 jcamins           Okay, I won't be testing oleonard's I18n patches.
04:18 jcamins           I can't get the language chooser to display.
04:19 Oak               kia ora #koha
04:19 Oak               how are you druthb :)
04:25 druthb            hi, Oak!  I'm well.  How are you?
04:27 Oak               i'm good too.
04:41 jcamins           Good night -- again -- #koha.
04:58 shakazu00         what is the staff username for koha 3.64
04:59 eythian           shakazu00: depends how you installed it really
04:59 eythian           probably kohaadmin is what you want
05:01 shakazu00         when it rebooted to login screen I tried kohaadmin and did not know the password
05:01 eythian           katikoha?
05:02 eythian           I forget what the default is, but it might be that
05:03 shakazu00         okay I am going to try that.but I am I not sure that's that it
05:04 eythian           well, have a look in your koha-conf.xml
05:04 eythian           it's in there, near the bottom
05:05 eythian           the username/password for the database will log you in to koha as a superuser
05:05 shakazu00         login  kohaadmin password katikoha does not work  for the staff client
05:06 eythian           then look in koha-conf.xml
05:08 shakazu00         I do not see anything near the bottom. I am trying use the staff client login and not the supervisor when I install the system
05:08 eythian           the bottom of the koha-conf.xml
06:05 eythian           hi cait
06:05 cait              hi eythian
06:05 cait              still at work?
06:05 eythian           yep
06:06 Oak               Guten Morgen miss cait :)
06:06 Oak               hello Mr. Robin
06:06 cait              hi mr Oak
06:07 Oak               what's new cait
06:07 cait              where have you been hiding? :)
06:07 Oak               exams!
06:07 Oak               now have to do a project, and it *must* be some practical work in a library
06:08 cait              oh
06:08 eythian           Oak: howdy
06:08 wahanui           niihau, eythian
06:08 cait              and do you have a project?
06:08 Oak               i was thinking how about pick a small library and get them to start using Koha...
06:09 Oak               I am meeting my project supervisor today and another management guy from university to discuss that
06:09 Oak               i mean to discuss the possibilities
06:10 cait              cool idea :)
06:12 Oak               if i can get a decent computer from the library (the one i'll get to start using Koha), and set up Koha in say one week (installed, tested), then I could start cataloging, and say I catalog 2000 books using copy catalog, *that* should count as a project... that's what I want to discuss.
06:13 Oak               but about the acquisitions module and other modules, plus the training of staff etc, i'm not clear about these things.
06:14 cait              hm perhaps circulation training
06:14 cait              cataloging + circulation + opac
06:14 Oak               also, i'm no Koha expert. but you are all here, and manuals Wikis are there. so. that's why i am considering it
06:14 Oak               hmmm.
06:16 Oak               and can Koha + 2000 books + cataloging, circulation, opac be done in 2 months if I work all day on it (~8 hours), asked my boss that I'll work in night time...
06:16 cait              I think configuration is not so hard
06:16 cait              and telling them how to do it should not be much more
06:16 cait              probably the cataloging
06:16 cait              will take longest
06:17 cait              but when you catalog, it#s good to know how they want to circulate the items later, so you catalog with the right itemtypes and such
06:17 Oak               hmm
06:19 Oak               well, i'll be doing this in morning time... so i'll have all day to work on this for next 2 months... i think it is doable...
06:21 Oak               is it doable? or am i being to optimistic in giving it 2 months?
06:21 Oak               too*
06:22 cait              it perhaps depends on how much you know already
06:23 Oak               i guess it depends on the person's skill level
06:23 cait              about Koha
06:23 Oak               yes
06:23 cait              hard to tell for m
06:23 Oak               i don't know much
06:24 cait              but you know how to install koha
06:24 Oak               yup
06:24 cait              hm
06:24 cait              perhaps talk to your advisor
06:24 cait              what they expect
06:25 Oak               yes, that should be done first
06:26 Oak               @wunder Konstanz

06:26 Oak               good  :)
06:29 Oak               by the way, the library i am considering are not using any ILS at all. they have a website, but no online access to library resources, obviously...

08:52 paul_p            magnuse why not. As it was started by BibLibre and I didn't wanted to seem to overlap with KohaCon or "community meetings" I called it hackfest in Marseille, but it's not a trademark ;-)
08:52 paul_p            magnuse last number = we will be 32 for this hackfest :D :D
08:52 magnuse           hehe
08:52 magnuse           wow, very cool!
08:52 magnuse           how many were we last year?
08:53 paul_p            around 17 iirc
08:53 paul_p            (32 we will be a little bit short on space...)
08:53 magnuse           i was thinking more a week to encourage people to sign off etc, than re-branding the hackfest
08:53 magnuse           yeah, you need lots of chairs and electrical outlets ;-)
08:54 paul_p            magnuse very good idea because i've a mail to send about the timing for 3.8, and feature freeze will be short after the hackfest
08:54 magnuse           cool
08:55 magnuse           if you send your mail first i can send one about gbsw?
08:55 paul_p            yep. it's on the top of my todo list...
08:55 magnuse           yay :-)
08:55 paul_p            something about an invoice of 20k€ to do first though ;-)
08:55 magnuse           sending it out? nice!
08:59 magnuse           i bet someone is happy now that bug 7284 is pushed :-)

09:03 kf                magnuse: oh he is very happy :)
09:03 kf                paul_p: we were discussing collecting ideas for the bug sqashing week on the wiki
09:03 kf                paul_p: perhaps get some people involved that are not in marseille
09:05 kf                ok
09:05 kf                meeting time
09:05 wahanui           i think meeting time is always going to favour one section of the globe
09:05 kf                bbl
09:06 paul_p            kf nope, it's not exactly about an invoice to send, it's about an invoice I'd like to send since 2010, and the library still tries to refuse/ask for waiting. It's a crazy project. Really crazy, i never saw a IT staff & managers so ... silly/stupid Really ! (the librarians are smart, but they don't have the money)
09:06 paul_p            (well, it was not for kf but for magnuse ;-) )
09:06 magnuse           :-)
09:06 magnuse           and ouch
09:11 slef              ah it was a meeting last night. Oops.
09:14 magnuse           slef: ?
09:15 slef              wasn't it?
09:16 magnuse           not that i know of
09:16 magnuse           there is http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/General_IRC_Meeting,_21_March_2012

09:37 paul_p            good morning slef = any news about the KohaCon12 schedule ?
09:48 slef              paul_p: nothing further than what's on the wiki.
09:49 paul_p            slef which is a little bit small. when do you plan to organize the schedule ? (Because it's only 3 month from now)
09:50 hdl               rangi: has something happened to : bywater/wr78012  branch ?
09:51 dgl_library       hello everyone!
09:51 dgl_library       I'm trying to set up Koha at a small school library and have found a couple of strange problems
09:51 dgl_library       I wonder if someone knows what's going on…
09:52 dgl_library       I'm using the Koha Virtual Appliance, "unconfigured version"
09:52 dgl_library       now updated to 3.6.04
09:52 dgl_library       and there is no button for Add Items
09:52 dgl_library       also, there are no options under Patrons > More > Set Privileges
09:53 slef              paul_p: ASAP. Patches welcome.
09:53 dgl_library       however if I manually navigate to http://ip-address:8080/cgi-bin/koha/cataloguing/addbooks.pl I do get the Add Items dialogue.
10:21 dgl_library       hi everyone, is there anyone here who might be able to shed some light on the Koha problem I'm having?
10:25 magnuse           julian_m: i'm looking at bug 6440 now! thanks for the followup!
10:25 huginn            04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=6440 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, julian.maurice, Needs Signoff , Koha's OAI-PMH does not support sets
10:26 julian_m          magnuse, wow, I wasn't expecting a response as quickly as that :)
10:26 magnuse           :-)
10:32 hdl               dgl_library: have you looked at logs ? have you tried setting DebugLevel to 1 ? What Configuration ?
10:32 hdl               never encountered the problem you spot.
10:37 slef              errr, tourist tax???
10:37 slef              that's a new one on me
10:39 dgl_library       @hdl: haven't looked at logs (where?), haven't set DebugLevel to 1. Configuration is Koha Virtual Appliance (Unconfigured version), which is Koha 3.6.04 running (inside a virtual OS) on Debian Squeeze
10:39 huginn            dgl_library: downloading the Perl source
10:40 dgl_library       huginn: are you saying I should compile from source?
10:40 huginn            dgl_library: I suck
10:40 hdl               dgl_library: huggin is a bot
10:40 dgl_library       hdl: thanks for the tip.
10:42 dgl_library       hdl: debug level was already set to show "lots of" info
10:42 hdl               dgl_library: can't help much, unless you really try and spot more detailed process and log information. try and file a bug.
10:42 slef              dgl_library: you put @ in front of hdl, huginn thinks any @s are for it.
10:42 dgl_library       slef: oops.
10:42 slef              dgl_library: live+learn
10:42 dgl_library       hdl: where can I find the related process/log info?
10:43 hdl               look at /var/log/apache2/error.log
10:43 slef              dgl_library: look in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ for a koha file that will have various Log locations. Or try the default that hdl just mentioned :)
10:43 hdl               or your vhost koha apache logs.
10:43 magnuse           paul_p: i just triggered a dtabase update, and the html codes in the 7284 show: i'm seeing the <b> and <a> in the web installer (not viewing source, but on the page)
10:44 paul_p            magnuse yep, kf noticed that in the bug 7284
10:44 huginn            04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7284 major, P3, ---, jcamins, Needs Signoff , Authority matching algorithm improvements
10:44 magnuse           ah, ok
10:46 dgl_library       hdl and slef: here's the thing… in the virtual debian in the virtual appliance, I'm not sure how to do anything outside koha, because there's no desktop such as gnome. the entire window is taken up by the koha management console.
10:47 dgl_library       aha…
10:47 dgl_library       got a command line by quitting koha, I suppose that's a start
10:49 slef              dgl_library: not sure what a koha management console is :)
10:50 dgl_library       slef: hmm, what do you see on your server when koha is running?
10:50 dgl_library       slef: at this end it looks like DOS or SSH terminal program… just text. it shows the IP address of Koha.
10:54 slef              dgl_library: login prompt, or whatever we're doing on it.
10:54 dgl_library       slef: it says "-bash: cd: /var/log/apache2/: Permission denied"
10:54 slef              dgl_library: sudo -i, then you will be the superuser and have all permissions, but tread carefully
10:56 dgl_library       sorry for the noob question, but I've accessed the folder. now how do I view the error log?
11:05 slef              dgl_library: less error.log # or similar
11:05 slef              dgl_library: or instead of less, you can use more or pg or view or ... there's more than one way to do it
11:06 slef              dgl_library: I think the works-on-all-debian-way is: sensible-pager error.log # but that's a lot of typing
11:06 slef              (please excuse delays, I am at work)
11:06 dgl_library       slef: no problem at all, thanks so much for taking the time. trying that now.
11:09 dgl_library       ok, looking at the log now. not sure there's a way to copy and paste from the virtual machine, but I'm seeing one error repeated a lot: authorities.pl: Argument "68a" in numeric ge …… blah blah ...... in authorities.pl line 263
11:09 dgl_library       same with Argument "68b"
11:11 slef              well, locate authorities.pl might tell you where it is, then cd to its folder and less +263 authorities.pl will open it to the right line.  I don't recognise that error but my memory is bad.
11:12 slef              or you could maybe find the version on git.koha-community.org and find authorities.pl in it and then give us a link to the line
11:12 slef              ah, but have you looked at the end of the log file (press > if you used less)
11:15 dgl_library       the log file is huge
11:15 dgl_library       several more errors
11:17 dgl_library       went to git but can't seem to locate the actual files, so will try in debian here
11:18 wizzyrea          in git you look for "tree"
11:18 wizzyrea          it looks just like the file system under there.
11:19 slef              wizzyrea: but first you need the right version, I think.
11:19 huginn            New commit(s) needsignoff: [Bug 6090] empty mails in message_queue are sent <http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=6090>
11:19 wizzyrea          ah I made a bad assumption, I assumed they went to git.koha-community.org and couldn't find the files
11:19 slef              wizzyrea: good assumption
11:20 slef              wizzyrea: but he's using 3.6.4
11:20 slef              dgl_library: the skill is figuring out which error is breaking you :-/
11:20 wizzyrea          http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=tree;h=aad0e675fec38d5b2b272950a79ea98abd48d0bc;hb=441b98cea41ed7d99354195b79d5b4f44b194913
11:21 wizzyrea          what was the original problem?
11:22 dgl_library       can I paste code here?
11:22 hdl               dgl_library: use pastebin.koha-community.org
11:23 sturmtruppen      q
11:24 slef              wizzyrea: the original problem was that something created the universe. It's all gone downhill from there.
11:24 wizzyrea          dgl sounds like perhaps your database has something gone funky
11:24 * wizzyrea        reads the log
11:38 dgl_library       sorry, connectivity problems -- we're in the middle of nowhere
11:39 dgl_library       http://mibpaste.com/GBB2jt
11:39 dgl_library       that's the relevant code from authorities.pl
11:43 wizzyrea          what was the original problem?
11:44 wizzyrea          the first question?
11:44 wahanui           i heard the first question was "What are you trying to do?"
11:44 slef              the original problem?
11:44 slef              wahanui: the original problem was that something created the universe and it's all gone downhill from there.
11:44 wahanui           slef: what?
11:44 slef              wahanui: the original problem is that something created the universe and it's all gone downhill from there.
11:44 wahanui           OK, slef.
11:45 slef              yay tenses!
11:45 wizzyrea          :)
11:49 dgl_library       the original problem: strange behavior in our koha admin panel. (hope I'm not answering a bot here)
11:49 magnus_afk        wizzyrea is definitely not a bot :-)
11:50 wizzyrea          :) define "strange"
11:50 magnuse           wizzyrea: http://stats.workbuffer.org/irclog/koha/2012-03-08#i_912572
11:51 wizzyrea          ah yea, I go back to my original thesis that something must have gone funny during the db update
11:52 dgl_library       wizzyrea (I'll take magnus's word you're not a bot if you'll vouch for him as well): the original problem is that I'm trying to set up Koha, using the Koha Virtual Appliance. the problems listed in the link above started before I ever updated — the update was an attempt to rectify the problems
11:52 wizzyrea          he's not a bot. Only wahanui, huginn, and jenkins are bots
11:53 dgl_library       no link to Add Items, and no options to Set Privileges under Patrons (Staff)
11:53 magnuse           and pastebot, i think
11:53 wizzyrea          what user are you logged in as?
11:53 dgl_library       kohaadmin
11:53 wahanui           i guess kohaadmin is the db user
11:53 wizzyrea          sounds like you have staff permissions, but no rights to do anything else
11:54 dgl_library       hmm
11:54 wizzyrea          just to make sure, you are logging into the staff side and not the OPAC
11:54 wizzyrea          ?
11:54 dgl_library       definitely am, I can change all kinds of system preferences
11:54 * wizzyrea        can't sleep, might as well help.
11:54 dgl_library       and create patrons and all sorts of things
11:54 wizzyrea          oh, have you defined patron categories?
11:54 wizzyrea          and item types?
11:54 dgl_library       yes
11:54 dgl_library       yes
11:55 dgl_library       uh, one sec
11:55 dgl_library       item types… let me check
11:55 dgl_library       I figured it would be easier to use the unconfigured Koha Virtual Appliance rather than go in and change all the preconfigured settings in the Configured version, but none of these problems exist in the Configured version (same user — kohaadmin) so I must be missing some key step in the setup
11:55 wizzyrea          are you trying to use authorities? flipped the pref for "biblio adds authorities"
11:55 wizzyrea          yep, seems likely
11:55 dgl_library       haven't done anything about Authorities
11:56 dgl_library       in fact, the only link under Cataloging is Authorities
11:56 dgl_library       and I can't really fully understand what they are, so a bit lost there. but do I need to set up Authorities before I can get the other bits working?
11:56 wizzyrea          no no, not necessary
11:56 dgl_library       brb
12:01 dgl_library       sorry, back now
12:01 dgl_library       I have defined a few item types
12:01 dgl_library       Patron types and categories as well
12:02 dgl_library       I have tested the Marc frameworks
12:02 wizzyrea          anything working better?
12:02 dgl_library       no, I set all that days ago
12:02 dgl_library       in fact I followed an implementation checklist I found on the website. still nothing.
12:03 wizzyrea          do you have libraries defined?
12:03 wizzyrea          or a library defined
12:03 dgl_library       yes, one. but every time I log in, I have to select it manually.
12:04 wizzyrea          well yea, kohaadmin is the super-superlibrarian
12:04 dgl_library       also as I mentioned there are no Add Items options in any menu, but if I manually navigate to http://x.x.x.x:8080/cgi-bin/koha/cataloguing/addbooks.pl I can see it
12:04 dgl_library       I see.
12:04 wizzyrea          you said you could create patrons - but you can't set permissions on them?
12:04 dgl_library       I did try to create a standard Staff account for myself, but as I mentioned, one of the problems is that …… yes, exactly.
12:05 dgl_library       More > Set Permissions shows a button that says "Set Flags" and nothing else
12:05 wizzyrea          it doesn't have an error, it just doesn't show?
12:05 dgl_library       I click it and am returned to the Patron's details screen
12:05 wizzyrea          ok, go to more -> about koha
12:05 dgl_library       no error, and no options
12:05 wizzyrea          click on the Perl Modules tab
12:05 wizzyrea          any missing?
12:06 dgl_library       http://mibpaste.com/SlBQGd
12:06 dgl_library       there's the About info
12:06 wizzyrea          click the perl modules tab
12:06 dgl_library       ah, I see... just a sec
12:07 dgl_library       Modern::Perl and DateTime::Format::ICal
12:07 dgl_library       that should be Modern:: Perl
12:07 wizzyrea          hm, that wouldn't cause this problem.
12:07 wizzyrea          it has to be that something somewhere is unconfigured.
12:08 wizzyrea          do you have the option to drop this db and install fresh?
12:08 dgl_library       well, here's a question from an alternative approach: can I export all my current settings, and then import them into a setup of Koha that works properly (i.e. the Configured version of the Koha Virtual Appliance)?
12:09 dgl_library       I mean, I've already invested a few days into inputting the settings… I'd at least like to be able to print them out somehow, if I can't export-import them
12:09 dgl_library       but yes, I suppose I could. I haven't entered any books yet.
12:09 wizzyrea          back up koha?
12:09 wizzyrea          boo
12:10 wizzyrea          I hoped wahanui had the link for that . :)
12:10 wizzyrea          back up koha is at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Backing_up_Koha
12:10 dgl_library       backup koha?
12:11 wizzyrea          but, all of the config is in the DB
12:11 dgl_library       of course if the problem is in the way I've configured Koha, backup and restore would most likely get me the same errors, right?
12:11 wizzyrea          yep
12:11 wizzyrea          what I would probably do
12:11 dgl_library       right, that's what you just said
12:12 wizzyrea          you're in a bit of a sunk cost moment
12:12 dgl_library       (sinking feeling in stomach)
12:12 wizzyrea          it would be faster to start over with a few of the sample options defined
12:12 wizzyrea          than to try and fix this, I have a sense.
12:13 wizzyrea          make sure you get the authorized values, sample patron categories
12:13 wizzyrea          sample libraries, mmm that's up to you.
12:13 wizzyrea          the z39.50 servers wouldn't hurt.
12:13 wizzyrea          sample holidays
12:13 dgl_library       the Configured version of the KVA works right out of the box — sample libraries, sample everything. without any setup, I can add books from Z39.50 servers, which are also predefined.
12:14 wizzyrea          yea, if you just drop the db (and create a new one) in the VM, it should run you through the installer
12:14 wizzyrea          where you can pick
12:14 wizzyrea          what sample data you want
12:14 dgl_library       oh really?
12:14 dgl_library       I didn't realize that!
12:15 wizzyrea          well in standard koha (installed from packages or from the tarball) it does that
12:15 wizzyrea          it stands to reason that it might work in the VM
12:15 wizzyrea          it's still koha :P
12:16 wizzyrea          i've not ever used the VM, it's not a vehicle that we normally spend a lot of time supporting here
12:16 dgl_library       ……searching for the drop db option……
12:16 wizzyrea          (most people use packages)
12:16 wizzyrea          the VM was contributed by someone in the community, and really only they know properly how it works.
12:17 dgl_library       I see, the thing is that I was that we ordered a dedicated server, which I was going to install debian on, but it won't arrive til tomorrow, so I've been working on the Koha VA and figured I'd just move the file later to the server
12:17 dgl_library       didn't realize it was a technical outlier…
12:17 dgl_library       perhaps I'll start from scratch on the new server then
12:17 wizzyrea          I think you'll be happier in the long run
12:18 dgl_library       yes, I think you may be right
12:18 dgl_library       the only thing is Debian…
12:18 wizzyrea          ah we can help with that :)
12:18 dgl_library       by using a virtual appliance, we can run any OS on the machine, and have Debian just for Koha
12:18 dgl_library       really, help with debian? :)
12:18 wizzyrea          there's always virtualbox.
12:19 wizzyrea          i mean, not running a pre-configured koha in a virtualbox
12:19 dgl_library       aha! I hadn't thought of setting up everything from scratch *within virtualbox*
12:19 dgl_library       right!
12:19 dgl_library       aren't you clever……
12:19 wizzyrea          >.>
12:19 wizzyrea          <.<
12:19 wizzyrea          ^.^
12:19 dgl_library       ok, so I've got virtualbox here and the 64-bit debian squeeze gnome install DVD
12:20 dgl_library       but I have to download it again because there was a file error
12:20 dgl_library       anyway, I would install debian+gnome in virtualbox, and then…
12:20 wizzyrea          packages?
12:20 wahanui           package info is at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_3.4_on_Debian_Squeeze
12:20 dgl_library       can you please point me to the most reliable and current instructions on how to install koha from packages
12:20 dgl_library       right
12:21 dgl_library       thanks
12:21 wizzyrea          yw, pop back if you get stuck. :)
12:22 dgl_library       thank you — it's so kind of you to help a confused and frustrated small-library volunteer on the other side of the planet :)
12:22 deiv              hi everybody
12:22 slef              dgl_library: which side? we're all over the place... at least in the geographic sense
12:22 dgl_library       the far side!
12:23 jcamins_away      slef: we're all over the place in most senses, I think.
12:23 slef              jcamins_away: speak for yourself ;)
12:23 dgl_library       haha. well I'm in the middle of nowhere.
12:23 slef              oh ok, speak for me too
12:23 wizzyrea          define "middle of nowhere"
12:23 wizzyrea          ;)
12:23 slef              dgl_library: I'm on a road to nowhere. Maybe I'll see you there?
12:23 * wizzyrea        lives in flyover country, USA
12:23 deiv              i need koha support, who are the person i can talk to?
12:24 * wizzyrea        looks around
12:24 dgl_library       slef: takes a while to get here
12:24 dgl_library       wizzyrea: in the Himalayas
12:24 slef              deiv: everyone but trust no-one :)
12:24 deiv              great
12:24 wizzyrea          isn't it some strange hour there?
12:24 dgl_library       by the way, is it ok to install the Gnome environment, or should I just stick to the Debian command-line (which I'd prefer not to do… very limiting to have to do every single thing via the command line)
12:25 dgl_library       5:53pm
12:25 wizzyrea          hm, not so strange. :)
12:25 dgl_library       it's the crack of early in flyover country, usa, though, isn't it?
12:25 wizzyrea          sure it's ok to install gnome.
12:25 wizzyrea          but most instructions will have you doing most everything on the command line
12:25 jcamins_away      dgl_library: you can install GNOME, you'll just have to open up a terminal to do things on the command line.
12:25 wizzyrea          well, yes. 6:30
12:26 wizzyrea          ish.
12:26 slef              jcamins_away: wizzyrea: maybe they know the gnome user admin tools and so on
12:26 dgl_library       jcamins: that's ok, as long as I still have a mouse and desktop, which will make it easier to copy and paste stuff if I run into problems (like error logs)
12:26 jcamins_away      Fair enough.
12:26 deiv              i imported yesterday, in 3.6.4 version, a marc21 example bibliography 650mb big. i downloaded it from the koha-community site
12:27 wizzyrea          slef: true
12:27 wizzyrea          what did you download exactly (meaning, from what URL?)
12:27 jcamins_away      The UMich dataset.
12:28 * wizzyrea        has not looked at it, where did we procure it from?
12:28 dgl_library       I'm going to download the debian+gnome install, which will take all night (1.1gb) to download, but if I did want to just try dropping the current db in Koha and then starting over and importing sample data etc, how would I go about it? Where's the Drop DB command?
12:28 wizzyrea          please link
12:28 deiv              wizzyrea: wait, i search
12:28 jcamins_away      wizzyrea: it's available on UMich's site. It's much to large to use on anything less than a dedicated server.
12:29 deiv              http://www.lib.umich.edu/files/umich_bib.marc.gz
12:29 deiv              i found this link on the koha-community wiki
12:29 wizzyrea          I usually do mysqladmin -uroot -p drop <name of your koha db>
12:29 wizzyrea          now, don't go doing that if you want anything in there.
12:30 wizzyrea          you can, before that
12:30 deiv              jcamins_away: yes, i got wrong :)
12:30 wizzyrea          do a mysqldump -uroot -p kohadb > backup.sql
12:30 jcamins_away      deiv: that is not any sort of endorsement.
12:30 jcamins_away      (that it's on the wiki)
12:30 wizzyrea          i follow now.
12:31 deiv              well wizzyrea, good idea
12:31 deiv              i will do a drop
12:31 wizzyrea          no no that was for dgl_library
12:31 wizzyrea          i don't think you've told us your problem yet :P
12:31 deiv              exctly
12:32 deiv              exactly
12:32 deiv              well, my question is: why i cannot see the imported bibliography on the opac?
12:32 jcamins_away      searching faq?
12:32 wahanui           searching faq is at http://koha-community.org/documentation/faq/
12:33 jcamins_away      You need to reindex.
12:33 deiv              i thought
12:33 deiv              i wanted to be sure
12:33 deiv              i'm doing it
12:33 mbalmer           swiss thursday starts
12:33 deiv              it needs lot of hours
12:33 jcamins_away      deiv: yes, it does. I imagine it'll take about... 20?
12:34 deiv              jcamins_away: the importing process needed 5 hours
12:35 wizzyrea          yep, you need to index
12:35 jcamins_away      deiv: how much disk space do you have?
12:35 deiv              not so much
12:35 deiv              4gb
12:35 jcamins_away      deiv: you need about... 80gb.
12:35 jcamins_away      (if you want to use that dataset)

12:36 jcamins_away      wizzyrea: awesome!
12:36 deiv              well, maybe it's better to drop that data and trying with something thinner
12:37 wizzyrea          also, please feel free to suggest edits to those faq's
12:37 dgl_library       thanks wizzyrea and everybody — I'll go and take some screenshots of the info I've already put in, and then start from scratch. have a good day/morning/evening/night…
12:38 wizzyrea          dgl_library: schema.koha-community.org may help you, if you really want to get the rules and stuff you've put in out
12:38 wizzyrea          you can craft a sql report in koha that would let you download in TAB or CSV
12:39 wizzyrea          schema?
12:39 wahanui           schema is probably tracked in git. or found at http://schema.koha-community.org
12:42 deiv              i think i need support
12:42 jcamins_away      paid support?

12:43 deiv              eheh great
12:44 deiv              well
12:44 dgl_library       wizzyrea & jcamins: I'm not terribly command-line savvy. can you point me to a page or something that gives the commands to craft a sql report in koha that would let me download in TAB or CSV?
12:44 deiv              i would like to undo the data import and reset indexing and try with a marc21 smaller sample
12:44 wizzyrea          oh, you can do it through the web interface
12:44 wizzyrea          more -> reports
12:44 wizzyrea          create from sql
12:44 jcamins_away      deiv: how did you import it?
12:45 dgl_library       oh, great :)
12:45 wizzyrea          dgl_library: an example of a query that would get you, say, your library definitions
12:45 wizzyrea          select * from branches
12:46 jcamins_away      deiv: if you used the batch import functionality, you can just reverse the import. If you used the command line, you'll have to delete all the records via the database.
12:46 deiv              i used misc/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl -file /path/to/marc.iso2709
12:47 jcamins_away      deiv: in that case, you'll need to delete all the records in SQL, doing something like "DELETE FROM biblio; DELETE FROM biblioitems;"
12:47 dgl_library       wizzyrea: more --> reports …… there's no "create from sql" option.
12:47 deiv              jcamins: that's ok
12:48 wizzyrea          not under "guided reports"
12:48 wizzyrea          ?
12:48 wizzyrea          well you do have those weird permission problems
12:48 wizzyrea          perhaps your user doesn't have permissions
12:48 dgl_library       http://mibpaste.com/xCPkkZ
12:48 deiv              jcamins: how to delete already created indexes?
12:48 wizzyrea          stinky poo
12:48 dgl_library       yep.
12:49 jcamins_away      deiv: when you import new records, you will reindex using rebuild_zebra.pl -b -r
12:49 wizzyrea          yea, it looks like your whole problem is that your super librarian doesn't have superlibrarian permissions
12:49 dgl_library       wizzyrea: I do have root access on the command line, though… if there's a way to do the export that way
12:49 wizzyrea          well
12:49 dgl_library       hmm. wish I could just fix the permissions!
12:49 wizzyrea          you can try mysql -ukohaadmin -p nameofkohadb
12:50 wizzyrea          password will be the same as your staff client login
12:50 deiv              jcamins: a new import and rebuild will delete older and unuseful indexes?
12:50 jcamins_away      Yes.
12:51 deiv              jcamins: great
12:52 dgl_library       wizzyrea: well, I ran that command and am now at a mysql> prompt. however, since this is all happening within virtualbox, I'm not sure where the file is or how to get it out to my host OS
12:52 wizzyrea          there won't be much in them likely
12:52 wizzyrea          ok so, just for fun
12:52 wizzyrea          select * from branches;
12:53 wizzyrea          you see your data?
12:53 dgl_library       back in the web interface, you mean?
12:53 wizzyrea          no, at your mysql prompt
12:53 deiv              jcamins: could i have a clean db doing a drop and a new web first setup?
12:54 wizzyrea          ^^ just as it appears  up there, punctuation and all
12:54 jcamins_away      deiv: you could do that, too.
12:54 wizzyrea          deiv: that would clean it out, sure
12:54 dgl_library       did that
12:54 dgl_library       it spat out the library info, address etc
12:54 wizzyrea          cool
12:54 dgl_library       1 row in set
12:55 jcamins_away      Ooh, you know what I get to do now? Meet the contractor at the new apartment... again!
12:55 wizzyrea          perfect, you only have 1 branch
12:55 wizzyrea          right?
12:55 dgl_library       right
12:55 wizzyrea          ok
12:55 wizzyrea          so, now that we know we can get in
12:55 deiv              this way seems more stable...how to re execute first installation? sorry, but i'm a real beginner
12:55 wizzyrea          and we are looking at the right db
12:55 wizzyrea          you can type exit
12:55 wizzyrea          to exit mysql
12:55 dgl_library       done
12:55 wizzyrea          and do
12:56 wizzyrea          mysql -ukohaadmin -p kohadb -e "select * from branches" > branches.sql
12:56 * jcamins_away    sighs. I am not looking forward to redoing the kitchen and bathroom.
12:56 wizzyrea          :/
12:56 jcamins_away      Thankfully, we have a while before that's necessary.
12:56 jcamins_away      So long, #koha.
12:56 wizzyrea          later jcamins_away
12:58 dgl_library       be right back…
13:00 deiv              a question: how can i re execute first web installation step? i need to rebuild db structure
13:02 slef              deiv: use a new database
13:03 deiv              slef: i need to re create structure
13:03 deiv              i would drop koha db
13:03 deiv              and i need to re create entire structure
13:04 sturmtruppen      hi to everyone
13:05 dgl_library       wizzyrea: should I replace kohadb with the db name, which is koha in my case?
13:05 wizzyrea          yep
13:05 wizzyrea          afk just a min
13:05 sturmtruppen      a newbie question for you: how can I obtainabout 2000 records starting from ISBN and automatically?
13:08 wizzyrea          ok back
13:12 deiv              wizzyrea: a simple question: how to re execute first web installer step?
13:12 wizzyrea          drop the db and create a new one, then go to the url for your staff client
13:15 sturmtruppen      for me, any ideas? anyone?
13:15 deiv              sturmtruppen: me not
13:16 deiv              i'm an hyper beginner
13:16 sturmtruppen      me too
13:16 sturmtruppen      second day in koha...
13:16 deiv              sturmtruppen: give me five :)
13:17 deiv              wizzyrea: are you sure webinstaller will works when i will drop db? i need the 3 steps first installer
13:18 wizzyrea          deiv: think of it this way
13:18 wizzyrea          what are the conditions by which the web installer fires?
13:18 wizzyrea          koha finds a database, but it has nothing in it
13:18 wizzyrea          koha wants to propagate it, so it launches the web installer.
13:19 deiv              i don't know, could be it exist a flag file or something similar
13:19 deiv              i try
13:19 deiv              thank you!
13:19 wizzyrea          sure :)
13:20 dgl_library       wizzyrea: I tried mysql -ukohaadmin -p kohadb -e "select * from branches" > branches.sql and the result was: "ERROR 1044 (42000): Access denied for user 'kohaadmin' @ 'localhost' to database 'kohadb'
13:21 dgl_library       I think my database is just called koha
13:21 wizzyrea          well you have to use the name of *your* database
13:21 wizzyrea          sorry if I wasn't clear
13:22 deiv              if it doesn't work i will pay a hacker to lock your WC, so you will need to ask peeing to your next-door :D
13:22 wizzyrea          charming?
13:23 dgl_library       wizzyrea: thanks
13:23 wizzyrea          so now, dgl
13:23 wizzyrea          if you want info out of other tables (they're all listed in the schema at schema.koha-community.org)
13:23 wizzyrea          you just do something similar
13:23 wizzyrea          to what you just did
13:23 wizzyrea          substituting your table names for branches
13:24 wizzyrea          example, select * from categories
13:24 wizzyrea          or select * from authorised_values
13:24 dgl_library       ok, I did it for branches. where can I find a list of table names?
13:24 wizzyrea          schema
13:24 wizzyrea          schema?
13:24 wahanui           schema is tracked in git. or found at http://schema.koha-community.org
13:24 dgl_library       or is there a way to export the whole db at once?
13:25 dgl_library       thank you
13:25 wizzyrea          to export the whole db
13:25 wizzyrea          mysqldump -ukohaadmin -p koha > koha-dump.sql
13:25 wizzyrea          back up koha?
13:25 wahanui           back up koha is at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Backing_up_Koha
13:25 wizzyrea          basically the same as this
13:26 dgl_library       thanks. there's suppose to be a space after the -u in -ukohaadmin, right?
13:26 wizzyrea          nop
13:26 dgl_library       ok
13:26 wizzyrea          it might work with one, but I never put one in
13:30 magnuse           wizzyrea++ for helping people
13:30 wizzyrea          magnuse++ for writing the backup documentation
13:31 wizzyrea          lol
13:31 dgl_library       wizzyrea, thanks very much for the help today — signing off & will check in again after doing the new setup. btw, are you one of the programmers on the koha project?
13:31 wizzyrea          I have patches in Koha, ya
13:31 wizzyrea          but pretty much everybody here does :)
13:31 * oleonard        waves
13:32 wizzyrea          oleonard having at least as many, if not more, than most ;)
13:32 jcamins_away      Wow. The devastation is incredible. In one day they managed to remove almost all the junk on the walls from the previous owners.
13:32 dgl_library       wow
13:32 wizzyrea          180 contributors now?
13:32 dgl_library       sorry, that wow was about all the programmers here — thanks #koha, bye for now
13:33 wizzyrea          later :)
13:33 jcamins_away      Including a room full of hideous mirrors!
13:33 wizzyrea          O.o
13:33 * wizzyrea        refrains from making a lewd joke
13:33 wizzyrea          also, how awesome is the word "lewd"
13:34 jcamins_away      lol
13:34 jcamins_away      Yay! Time to discuss ethernet!
13:35 * wizzyrea        grins evilly at oleonard
13:36 oleonard          :P
13:44 deiv              another question: do you know a place where to download a marc bibliography, enaugh big to be consistent, enaugh little to let me run on a netbook?
13:45 deiv              *enough
13:52 wizzyrea          https://github.com/wizzyrea/Scripts-and-Things/blob/master/MARC21.mrc
13:52 wizzyrea          should have items consistent with the sample data
13:52 wizzyrea          actually I need to rebuild that I think.
13:57 wizzyrea          but it should work
13:57 wizzyrea          for you
13:58 schuster          Howdy all
13:59 oleonard          Hi schuster
14:00 oleonard          Whoops, I submitted a patch.
14:00 schuster          I turned on extended attributes on my system and one of the items listed there as "default" is SHOW_BCODE - which is a system pref with a yes no.
14:01 oleonard          http://manual.koha-community.org/3.6/en/faqs.html#opacbarcodesfaq
14:03 schuster          OK so that is now just a piece of Extended attributes...  Just surprised me to see that.  thanks
14:06 * oleonard        founds a new startup, lmgtitkmfy.com: Let me Google that in the Koha manual for you ;)
14:10 hdl               this is quite an old timer : RTFM or ggl is your friend
14:11 * oleonard        would never really tell schuster to RTFM
14:12 oleonard          kyleh: Around?
14:14 wizzyrea          bbiab
14:20 schuster          appreciates oleonard being nice to schuster :)
14:20 schuster          jcamins_away - so where does 7284 stand now?  I see it is back to needs signoff.
14:21 jcamins_away      schuster: it's pushed! :D
14:21 jcamins_away      The "Needs Signoff" is for a follow-up to fix a test.
14:22 jcamins_away      paul_p: a patch to fix jenkins' build is attached to bug 7284.

14:22 paul_p            hi jcamins_away, yes i've seen.
14:22 schuster          OK just confused on the flow ;)
14:22 paul_p            almost done with my answer to marcelr on koha-devel, and I take care of it ;-)
14:23 paul_p            (i already have fixed the <a> and <b> issue as well)
14:24 jcamins_away      :)
14:24 jcamins_away      Thanks.
14:25 jcamins_away      schuster: no, it's a bit confusing when I change it to "Needs Signoff" immediately after it's pushed.
14:26 kf                paul_p: I am a bit worried about the perltidy idea - not sure we finally decided about it. I think we said we woudl start discussion and gather pro/cons
14:26 paul_p            I remember we agreed that there was no "good" option, this one being the "less wrong" one
14:29 kf                paul_p: I thik there were some strong objections
14:29 kf                and we still have to pudate the copyright statements... I fear losing the history might not be woth it
14:29 paul_p            what do you mean by "update the @ statements" ?
14:30 kf                we need to update them in order to get into debian properly
14:30 kf                afaik
14:30 huginn            New commit(s) kohagit: Bug 7284: Fix unit test broken by erroneous POD <http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=commitdiff;h=fa0eb5afd555102890f9b47c83e16f3cf796745a> / bug 7284 follow-up: removing html tags and as they're displayed not... <http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=commitdiff;h=906aff23cad65bffe15b3901657a845757b47d08>
14:30 paul_p            (kf: we don't loose the history, we just have one commit, that will be easily identified on git history)
14:30 kf                yes, but git blame will not be identifying it
14:31 kf                and I thik it's not only whitespace changes - it will change the line breaking too. I think at least we need to test it before we go through with it
14:31 paul_p            we should find the discussion, because iirc, we said that was worth it.
14:31 kf                really looking at the consequences
14:31 kf                I think it was to be talked about on the mailing list - but might remember wrong
14:32 paul_p            kf perltidy, fortunatly, changes more than whitespaces, but there's no consequences on the executed code
14:32 paul_p            (fortunatly misplaced ;-) )
14:32 kf                yeah I know it does not change the code, but line breaking I think?
14:33 paul_p            yes, but there's no consequences
14:33 paul_p            (that also changes {} position)
14:33 kf                for history there iw
14:33 kf                for history there is
14:33 kf                I think some peopel assumed you can tell git blame to ignore whitespace changes
14:33 kf                but this will not work
14:35 paul_p            kf = http://librarypolice.com/koha-meetings/2011/koha.2011-10-05-10.00.log.html (/me reading it now)
14:35 jenkins_koha      Starting build #646 for job Koha_master (previous build: UNSTABLE -- last SUCCESS #644 22 h ago)
14:35 kf                hm think it was a later meeting
14:35 kf                we talked about it again
14:35 jcamins_away      paul_p: jenkins may still be unstable if rangi didn't get a chance to reindex.
14:35 kf                after we decided
14:35 kf                about the stly
14:35 kf                e
14:36 paul_p            jcamins_away probably yes, but less test failing is always better ;-)
14:36 jcamins_away      paul_p: yeah, I was just warning you that the new failure isn't my fault. ;)
14:36 paul_p            jcamins_away I know (and in fact, it's your fault. Because it's your patch :D )
14:37 jcamins_away      paul_p: I provided all the tools necessary for fixing it. ;)
14:37 paul_p            kf you're right, it's not oct meeting, but I can't find which one it is...
14:37 jcamins_away      I believe rangi said he'd reindex it tomorrow.
14:38 kf                paul_p: I have problems finding it too
14:38 kf                and have to finish wirting a protocol
14:39 jcamins_away      paul_p: I thought the concensus was to perltidy existing code only when patches are touching it.
14:40 paul_p            jcamins_away well, it's *really* worth finding the logs then :D
14:41 jcamins_away      paul_p: hm, you're right.
14:42 kf                jcamins_away: I agree
14:42 kf                jcamins_away: I think we postponed deciding about a big change

14:43 * jcamins_away    laughs at the 4 v 8 spaces thing.
14:43 jcamins_away      Oh, sorry, I didn't finish reading.
14:44 jcamins_away      The conclusion was "we'll decide via mailing list.
14:44 jcamins_away      And, with that thought, I'm off to a meeting.
14:44 jcamins_away      Bye!

15:04 kf                hi wizzyrea
15:05 oleonard          wizzyrea: Do you libraries complain about how the patron search autocomplete works?
15:05 wizzyrea          we don't use it
15:05 wizzyrea          because people were consistently picking the wrong patron
15:05 oleonard          Yeah, that seems to be the complaint here too.
15:05 wizzyrea          I don't think the algorithm is bad
15:06 wizzyrea          just... humans.
15:06 oleonard          It's the way the YUI interaction is designed.
15:06 * oleonard        is happy to blame YUI
15:06 wizzyrea          :)
15:06 oleonard          My jQuery version will be better if it ever sees the light of day

15:20 wizzyrea          wonder what happened with that bug.
15:21 wizzyrea          ditched in favor of the unified patron view preference I guess?
15:22 oleonard          That's what I'm doing now
15:22 oleonard          I marked Bug 6670 and Bug 6905 as dependent on a new bug, Bug 7680

15:25 wizzyrea          fine by me
15:26 * kf              loves system preferences ;)
15:26 wizzyrea          will be nice to make that consistent
15:26 wizzyrea          kf also loves consistency
15:26 wizzyrea          iirc.
15:26 kf                yep she does :)
15:26 kf                and chocolate
15:26 wahanui           i heard chocolate was finite, we ate it all :)
15:26 wizzyrea          *nod*
15:27 oleonard          wahanui: Forget chocolate
15:27 wahanui           oleonard: I forgot chocolate
15:27 wizzyrea          blasphemer!
15:27 oleonard          wahanui: chocolate is finite, but there is still some left for you
15:27 wahanui           OK, oleonard.
15:27 wizzyrea          ok you're forgiven.
15:27 * wizzyrea        has thin mints on her desk
15:28 wizzyrea          how i've resisted not eating every single one of them yet is beyond me
15:28 kf                wish it was that easy to solve the chocolate shortage
15:28 oleonard          wizzyrea: You must be a stronger person than I
15:28 wizzyrea          is the mint in the cookie, or the chocolate I wonder.
15:28 wizzyrea          mysteries of the universe I guess.
15:28 * wizzyrea        reaches for the thin mints
15:29 wizzyrea          oh, 4 left in the tube... 4 in a serving. Coincidence?
15:29 oleonard          4 tubes in one serving? Sounds right to me.
15:29 wizzyrea          ^.^
15:30 wizzyrea          I also have the shortbread ones with chocolate on the bottom
15:30 * oleonard        swoons
15:36 oleonard          "PatronDefaultView : Links to patron records point to ( circulation | patron details )"
15:37 oleonard          Does that make sense?
15:37 wizzyrea          well on the patron screen
15:37 wizzyrea          it's labeled "check out"
15:38 wizzyrea          http://screencast.com/t/allRYIakIpdE
15:38 wizzyrea          but otherwise, yes
15:38 oleonard          Sure, links which are explicitly meant for one or the other will not be changed
15:38 wizzyrea          right, i just meant in your syspref
15:39 oleonard          Oh, you mean "check out" instead of "circulation"
15:39 wizzyrea          Links to patron records point to (check out | details)
15:39 wizzyrea          yes, exactly
15:39 oleonard          Good call
15:40 wizzyrea          in fact, everywhere it's called "check otu"
15:40 wizzyrea          out"
15:40 wizzyrea          on circ home, in the header
15:40 wizzyrea          so check out would definitely be better.
15:40 wizzyrea          than circulation
15:41 * wizzyrea        still hates the "fines and charges" tab on the patron detail
15:42 wizzyrea          just click the fines tab :P
15:42 wizzyrea          oleonard, it occurs to me that we should make that table an include and use the same one on both the check out and detail tab
15:43 wizzyrea          because they're "identical" (except for the fines/charges tab
15:43 kf                wizzyrea: it's handy for printing
15:43 kf                wizzyrea: when you want to print out all holds, fines, detail about the patron, it's all on one page
15:45 wizzyrea          well we should make "print page" do that
15:46 clrh              gmcharlt: I have a question about a contrib repository (written in pv)
15:46 wizzyrea          because I would never ever have thought to print that detail page.
15:47 wizzyrea          not when there's a giant "print" button up there.
15:47 wizzyrea          or we need a link to print it that says "print patron summary" or somesuch
15:50 kf                wizzyrea: we need a way to print out all information that is stored about a patron...
15:50 kf                wizzyrea: so I think it's a really good idea
15:50 wizzyrea          *nod*
15:50 kf                privacy laws
15:50 kf                you can demand that, as a patron
15:50 wizzyrea          sure
15:51 oleonard          Being an American I can only imagine what you mean by "privacy laws" :P
15:51 * wizzyrea        nods shamefully
15:51 oleonard          I think here it means they can keep private what kind of information they collect and sell
15:52 oleonard          Oh look, circ/branchoverdues.pl is broken.
15:52 wizzyrea          !

16:03 sturmtruppen      i have  aproblem with the research of a record inserted in the database
16:04 wizzyrea          searching faq?
16:04 wahanui           somebody said searching faq was at http://koha-community.org/documentation/faq/
16:04 wizzyrea          see the last one
16:04 sturmtruppen      i'll explain better... without a log in in the opac, i search a book by autor.
16:05 sturmtruppen      koha doesn't found the bokk, but i have just inserted in te db
16:05 sturmtruppen      ok, i'm very newbie
16:05 sturmtruppen      book
16:06 sturmtruppen      author...I just forgot my bad english...
16:07 oleonard          don't worry about your spelling sturmtruppen we understand
16:07 sturmtruppen      i know, you're a genius, i'm the man with problem in english ... hihihihihi!
16:07 oleonard          Did you look at the searching faq link?

16:08 sturmtruppen      yeap
16:08 kf                still waiting for my chocolate!
16:09 sturmtruppen      this summer, while i'm going to legoland, i'll bring you your chocolate!
16:09 kf                heh
16:10 sturmtruppen      yes, i installed from packages in debian squeeze
16:10 deiv              hi everybody
16:10 kf                hmm
16:10 kf                I think there is a command for the packages to activate zebra indexing

16:11 deiv              is it possible in 3.6.4 version to install a post installation new language?
16:11 kf                sturmtruppen: not sure if it should autostart
16:11 kf                but perhaps try koha-start-zebra
16:12 sturmtruppen      zebra was at party yesterday night, she's still sleeping...

16:15 wizzyrea          deiv - yes
16:15 wizzyrea          translations?
16:15 wahanui           translations are there... And might help stoping the warnings.
16:15 wizzyrea          hm no
16:15 wizzyrea          forget translations

16:19 wizzyrea          at least, I think so
16:20 oleonard          Thanks wizzyrea
16:20 wizzyrea          i'm about to see if it works
16:20 deiv              i just installed italian language on koha 3.6.4!
16:22 kf                sturmtruppen: hmm. did you run the command and did it give you feedback?
16:22 kf                sturmtruppen: you might perhaps also want to run the rebuild thing
16:23 kf                koha-rebuild-zebra - because your record didn't get indexed
16:23 sturmtruppen      i have no feedback. now i'm reading the faq, as suggested by oleonard
16:23 wizzyrea          yup, it's golden, will sign off on it.
16:23 kf                sturmtruppen: not sure how it applies to packages
16:27 wizzyrea          ok, you can put that branchoverdues issue out of your mind oleonard, once paul_p or QA sees the sign off for his patch to fix it.
16:27 oleonard          Cool.

16:48 oleonard          Hi sekjal how's it going?
16:49 sekjal            hi, oleonard.  going pretty well
16:50 sekjal            lots of Koha emails to catch up on today
17:13 paul_p            OK, passed QA pile emptied (except for 2 that i'm waiting for some feedback/a squashed patch)
17:13 wizzyrea          oh, paul_p

18:33 rangi             hmm
18:34 rangi             there is a patch that fixes some of those tests on 7284
18:34 cait              yes, it also mailed me
18:35 rangi             its an easy peasy signoff if someone wants to try?
18:35 cait              bug number?
18:37 jcamins_away      Bug 7284
18:37 wahanui           well, Bug 7284 is the first step to making that happen.

18:37 rangi             yeah that one
18:37 rangi             its a pod fix
18:37 rangi             so run a test, apply patch, run test
18:37 rangi             easy :)
18:38 jcamins_away      But didn't paul_p already push that?
18:38 * jcamins_away    just remembered seeing something about that.
18:38 rangi             oh maybe
18:39 rangi             lemme look
18:39 rangi             jcamins_away: if you can let me know what i have to change for zebra ill have a go at that
18:39 rangi             oh yes down to 2 fails
18:39 rangi             ignore that cait
18:39 cait              ok
18:40 rangi             just the reindexing i think
18:40 rangi             jcamins_away: do i need to copy some files from git for the zebra stuff?
18:41 jcamins_away      rangi: yes. Here's the list: http://paste.koha-community.org/304

18:54 rangi             holy crap, there are way more authorities in here than i though
18:54 rangi             t
18:55 jcamins_away      rangi: how many?
18:55 cait              rangi++ jcamins++ :)
18:55 rangi             im up to 27k
18:55 jcamins_away      Wow!
18:55 rangi             (the db was originally hlt's)
18:55 rangi             anonymised, and with the sample data added
18:56 rangi             but i wanted something biggish so when i get time i can get jenkins to load test too
18:56 jcamins_away      Makes sense.
18:56 rangi             using Test::WWW::Mechanize
19:01 chris_n           jcamins_away: that'll be fine
19:01 jcamins_away      chris_n: okay, I will attach the 3.6.x patches when I can.
19:02 jcamins_away      chris_n: I haven't tried yet, but I suspect backporting it to 3.4.x is going to be problematic.
19:05 jcamins_away      My inclination, if that's the case, is to say that the bug fix is only available in 3.6.5+
19:46 oleonard          Hah, IE9 finally gives us support for border-radius and even then it's broken.
19:46 Space_Librarian   quick question. Is there any way to lock a public list so that only librarians can edit them?
19:47 * Space_Librarian waves around cookies to tempt answers
19:47 oleonard          Public lists are not supposed to be editable by anyone but the creator
19:47 wizzyrea          ^^
19:48 Space_Librarian   oh good.
19:48 oleonard          Cart and Lists buttons in IE9: http://screencast.com/t/tDWYJfx2O
19:48 Space_Librarian   So if somebody other than the creator clicks delete or edit on the list, nothing happens?
19:49 oleonard          border-radius in IE9? Fine. Background-gradients in IE9? No problem. border-radius AND background-gradients? Hah.
19:50 oleonard          Space_Librarian: OPAC or staff client?
19:50 Space_Librarian   the background gradients in the lists drop down has been a great cause for complaint by the IE9 users here.
19:50 Space_Librarian   oleonard: opac
19:52 Space_Librarian   and re: the gradient - http://screencast.com/t/9AbDw4Dio5ik - only an issue in IE
19:52 oleonard          Must be a version before IE9?
19:56 wizzyrea          wow why a horizontal gradient?
19:56 * wizzyrea        ponders
19:57 Space_Librarian   I dunno, it's whatever they've just upgraded the work search engine to. I use chrome, so it doesn't bother me. But yeah, weird.
19:58 oleonard          wizzyrea: Because IE doesn't support multiple "stops" in gradients
19:58 oleonard          The lists background gradient goes from color 1 to color 2 to color 3. IE only understands 2
19:59 Space_Librarian   for comparison: same list in chrome. http://screencast.com/t/ILpP94u61
20:00 oleonard          Space_Librarian: So in this case the question is why the custom CSS works in Chrome and not IE
20:02 Space_Librarian   it also works in Firefox
20:02 Space_Librarian   But, we all know how broken IE is.
20:09 oleonard          Space_Librarian: Back to your question about lists, I don't see where someone other than the creator sees a delete or edit link
20:09 wizzyrea          Space_Librarian: are you the creator of all of those lists?
20:09 wizzyrea          (you might try looking with a different user)

21:24 eythian           druthb: what's up?

21:25 bag               oh rangi that's a win ;)
21:26 wizzyrea          rather chilly for fall eh
21:26 wizzyrea          late summer, I guess
21:26 eythian           We don't have fall here
21:26 jcamins_away      Time to head home. So long, #koha.
21:26 jcamins_away      (I'll probably be back in an hour or two)
21:27 eythian           later jcamins_away
21:27 wizzyrea          what do you call the chilly-ish time between summer and winter?
21:27 wizzyrea          winteR?
21:27 wahanui           hmmm... winteR is almost gone! I already need the fan on
21:27 wizzyrea          winter?
21:27 wahanui           i guess winter is almost gone! I already need the fan on
21:27 eythian           wizzyrea: autumn
21:27 druthb            eythian...I have four columns, A, B, C, D, in a spreadsheet, and I want to create two 600 fields out of them--  I tried --mapping=A=marc:600_a --mapping=B=marc_600_e --mapping=C=600_a% --mapping=D=600_e, but that didn't fly.  Got the first one right, but all entries after C created a new tag, not added to the second 600.
21:27 wizzyrea          eythian: you are cheeky.
21:27 wizzyrea          :)
21:28 wizzyrea          rather chilly for AUTUMN, then.
21:29 eythian           druthb: hmm
21:29 eythian           wizzyrea: it's not too bad, warming up
21:30 eythian           druthb: I don't think it can do that reliably. I'd actually expect it to be adding all the other ones to the first 600
21:30 eythian           (all the non-C ones)
21:30 druthb            crapola.  I was hopin' to avoid a custom script, as this particular CSV has 75 columns.
21:32 eythian           you might be able to mess around with ordering and whether to put '%' signs in to make it work
21:32 eythian           it runs all the mappings through in the order they're defined on the command
21:32 eythian           e.g. put all the ones that go together in a sequence first, and then the one on its own with a '%'
21:33 druthb            From the way I'd seen it behave, I had things in that order, and I've tried all sorts of wierd combinations of ? and % and ! to get there, but it either put everything on the first 600, or in separate tags.  that second 600 never got any of it's subs other than _a
21:34 eythian           http://git.catalyst.net.nz/gw?p=koha.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/nzei_import <-- this branch has (I think) the latest version, it might work better.
21:35 rangi             back
21:35 eythian           I wouldn't expect the '%' to affect anything other than itself...
21:36 druthb            Okay;  I'll take another swing at things with the newer code shortly.
21:38 druthb            thanks for an amazing piece of code, eythian.  :)
21:39 eythian           I see you haven't actually read it yet, it's become quite monstrous ;)

21:40 rangi             heh
23:14 * jcamins         can't imagine how he did anything before virtualization was practical.
23:15 eythian           chroots all the way!
23:16 jcamins           eythian: but I never learned how to use chroots.
23:16 eythian           they're not so hard.
23:17 jcamins           No, but I never learned.
23:17 eythian           though I use pdebuild for that kind of thing these days, it makes the magic work.
23:19 * jcamins         installs Ubuntu so that he doesn't sully anything but a VM with Java.
23:20 * jcamins         runs out of RAM.
23:39 jcamins           rangi: have you done any further testing with MariaDB?
23:39 rangi             nope, but chris_n has i think
23:43 rangi             its pretty much drop in replacement afaict
