23:52 * Oak         goes back to sleep
23:24 slef          bbl
23:23 slef          Tescopoly.org - Every Little Hurts
23:22 slef          but they're a bad company
23:22 slef          hmmm  Tesco £7.50 for 1Gb for one month
23:21 slef          I think for customer service vodafone = t-mobile > o2 > 3 > orange
23:20 slef          coo... looks like o2 and 3 are cheapest... interesting to know
23:16 eythian       but it's not supposed to exist
23:16 slef          heh I meant in the UK but never mind
23:16 eythian       near enough to £20
23:16 eythian       3GB/mo for NZ$40
23:16 rangi         yeah we sure do
23:16 slef          you get gouged on prepay
23:16 eythian       I have some bizarre non-stop promo plan
23:16 eythian       not for prepay
23:16 eythian       but not terribly so
23:16 slef          for prepay?
23:15 eythian       more expensive than what I pay here, oddly enough :)
23:15 slef          http://www.o2.co.uk/tariffs/payandgo "The Works"
23:15 eythian       slef: that sounds ideal
23:14 slef          (o2 web bolt-on)
23:14 rangi         updating now
23:14 slef          eythian: looks like £10/Gb if you do it right, similar to prepay data-only, actually.
23:13 rangi         yeah
23:13 eythian       (well, the quotes not working thing may be correct, but the rest of it not so much)
23:13 eythian       I think the person doesn't know perl.
23:13 eythian       rangi: that bug is totally wrong
23:13 eythian       slef: no, it's OK. I was just wondering if you knew off the top of your head
23:13 slef          eythian: it's on the summary page
23:12 wahanui       kohacon12 is http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Category:KohaCon12 or Conference Tue 5 June 2012 to Thu 7th, Hackfest Sat 9th June-Mon 11th June
23:12 slef          wahanui: kohacon12?
23:12 slef          eythian: no clue, sorry. Have you tried the link on the wiki? If it doesn't help, I can ask around.
23:12 eythian       slef: phone
23:11 slef          eythian: prepay for data only or in a phone?
23:10 huginn`       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8171 normal, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , Improper escaping of quotes during z39.50 queries leads to potential malicious code execution
23:10 rangi         bug 8171 confuses me
23:05 jcamins       lol
23:04 eythian       It's the same hemisphere even
23:04 eythian       relatively speaking.
23:04 eythian       jcamins: you could just come to Edinburgh you know. It's not far from where you are.
23:04 rangi         :)
23:04 jcamins       I _really_ want that one to be recorded.
23:03 eythian       cool
23:02 rangi         speaking of which, after i have had a refresher of his tutorial i plan to run one here
23:01 jcamins       :)
23:00 eythian       liw rather
23:00 eythian       also larsw will be there to help me :)
23:00 eythian       jcamins: it seems like a plausible thing for me to do :)
23:00 jcamins       eythian: any chance I could persuade you to set up an oldstable dist during the hackfest? :)
22:59 eythian       slef: what sort of data plans will a prepay SIM card have there?
22:59 eythian       definitely in 3.6
22:58 slef          because the bit obscured by the floating bar isn't taken off of page-down distance by firefox
22:58 slef          t jump through that fast.
22:58 slef          page down pages down more than a page, though... not a big problem in the marc editor though, as most people don
22:57 jcamins       rangi: no, much longer.
22:56 rangi         having to scroll back to the top was a pet peeve
22:56 * rangi       likes
22:56 slef          since the blue 3.8 UI changes I think
22:56 rangi         that's awesome!
22:56 slef          I'm on 3G dongle because it's cheaper than the wifi :-/
22:56 rangi         how long has the save bar floated in the marc editor?
22:56 rangi         holy crap
22:55 slef          it's like where I'm sat now
22:55 rangi         *nod*
22:55 slef          but it happens a lot
22:55 slef          it irritates me when I have to tether because the wifi is so obnoxious
22:54 rangi         :) worst comes to worst I can tether
22:54 slef          but that's just me looking on the dark side again.
22:53 slef          I'm worried that we'll be bugfixing the wifi but it wouldn't be the first conference that's happened at.
22:47 eythian       So I need to look at it fresh
22:47 eythian       Mine needs review, as it's been a few days since I finished it.
22:47 rangi         actually i need to rejig my main talk a bit
22:44 eythian       I think that'll be today and tomorrow.
22:44 rangi         and yeah me too
22:44 rangi         oh yeah i meant just the kohacon bit
22:44 * eythian     needs to write the hackfest part still
22:43 eythian       I assume we'll have wifi for that, otherwise things won't work so well.
22:43 eythian       I'll probably be plugging my laptop in, especially for the hackfest part.
22:40 slef          I may be misleading you, getting my lies in early
22:40 slef          hey, it may all be different
22:40 cjh           thanks :)
22:39 slef          is where it would be
22:39 slef          http://bambuser.com/channel/mjray
22:39 cjh           sorry a bird is typing on my keyboard... that should've been a :)
22:39 cjh           that should
22:39 cjh           so I can watch the presentations in my sleep )
22:38 slef          if we can get the wifi up and there's enough power, I may be able to stream live
22:37 cjh           worst case having access to the slides would work as well
22:37 slef          cjh: yes but no promises yet on quality, sadly
22:34 cjh           are the presentations being recorded?
22:33 * jcamins     will probably record a video, so that there's a handout of sorts.
22:30 rangi         ill have my laptop, but am happy to just transfer it to the presentation machine too
22:29 rangi         slef: mine is just html/javascript so should work on anything
22:29 rangi         yeah sounds good
22:27 slef          yengh... what do I need to send speakers? File formats, screen size, a link to the programme and a see-you-soon?
22:23 rangi         its not a bad idea
22:23 jcamins       Seems to me like that might be a good idea.
22:21 rangi         yeah chrooted should work
22:20 cjh           it would also need access to all the perl modules, but otherwise I cant think of any reason why not
22:19 jcamins       Hey, is there any reason that Plack couldn't be chrooted? It seems to me that the web server does not need access to any (Koha-specific) files other than koha-conf.xml and /usr/share/koha.
22:08 rangi         http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Release_Announcements  <-- good idea
22:08 rangi         so it must be working for new users again
22:08 rangi         david nind is editing the wiki
22:08 rangi         oh hey
21:55 rangi         cool
21:54 Elay          will work on the virtual machine later
21:54 Elay          ok. time for me to go for today
21:49 jcamins       Too late, of course.
21:49 * jcamins     realizes that he should have put home on a different volume.
21:46 jcamins       I just use the default.
21:45 cait          I think I used what was suggested, but someone might have better advice
21:44 Elay          VDI, VMDK, VHD, HDD
21:44 Elay          What kind of disk do I want to create?
21:41 jcamins       Wow. Their prices are kind of remarkable.
21:40 Elay          ok, Debian is done downloading
21:40 jcamins       Oh, they're based in Berkeley.
21:40 ibeardslee    rangi and I are just excited that they are setting up shop in NZ, so we can now buy linux laptops
21:40 jcamins       Their website is a bit too minimalistic for my taste.
21:39 jcamins       (not that I'm buying a laptop, I'm just curious)
21:39 ibeardslee    yes
21:39 jcamins       Okay, but do they sell to the US?
21:39 jcamins       (and 3GB swapped out, darn it)
21:39 * cait        has 8 too
21:38 rangi         its very nice
21:38 jcamins       Like today. When I have 67MB of RAM free.
21:38 rangi         with debian squeeze and 8 gig
21:38 rangi         i have https://zareason.com/shop/Alto-3880.html
21:38 jcamins       But, there are days.
21:38 jcamins       Don't get me wrong, I'm very happy with the laptop.
21:38 * wizzyrea    too
21:38 * jcamins     has 8GB in his laptop.
21:38 rangi         i really like it tho
21:38 rangi         mine is only a paltry 8GB
21:37 rangi         eythian has one jcamins
21:37 jcamins       Ooh. They have 16GB laptops.
21:36 rangi         they do :)
21:36 ibeardslee    oh, and they have an NZ company now
21:36 rangi         :)
21:36 rangi         get a zareason.com one
21:35 wahanui       15
21:35 wizzyrea      14 or 15
21:35 wizzyrea      :)
21:35 wizzyrea      get a middle sized one.
21:35 Elay          all the time, have a very comfy recliner
21:35 wizzyrea      so this laptop, will it sit on your lap much?
21:35 Elay          so have tablet for travel.
21:35 Elay          yes, but generally won't be doing much web or code while traveling
21:34 wizzyrea      ?
21:34 wizzyrea      travel a lot/
21:34 wizzyrea      get a middle sized one.
21:34 Elay          coding if I ever get to learn Perl...
21:34 Elay          website development
21:34 wizzyrea      what are you going to use it for?
21:34 Elay          Have an android tablet already. Yes, I have bought into the Don't Be Evil Empire.
21:33 Elay          so, while we're waiting for download...should I go large (17") or smaller for new laptop?
21:33 * jcamins     restores a 2.8GB Koha database.
21:32 Elay          will already be done on my new laptop
21:32 wizzyrea      excellent, we can practice our evil laughs together.
21:32 rangi         i install linux on every computer i touch, fair warning if we ever meet at kohacon again :)
21:31 Elay          her
21:31 wahanui       sucks has neutral karma
21:31 Elay          karma sucks
21:31 * wizzyrea    imagines elay rubbing his/her hands together evilly
21:31 rangi         :)
21:31 Elay          cuz I broke my home laptop and now have to share his computer.
21:31 rangi         pretty much every IT dept i know did that
21:31 Elay          Was very cruel, I know
21:31 Elay          But got DH a computer with it, partially as revenge
21:31 rangi         yeah xp, until windows 7
21:30 Elay          I skipped right over Vista.
21:30 wizzyrea      ^^
21:30 rangi         lots of ppl just stayed with xp
21:30 rangi         jcamins: vista sucked so much
21:30 jcamins       Probably got XP confused with something else.
21:30 * jcamins     hasn't used Windows in a very, very long time.
21:29 jcamins       Anyway, i386 will work just fine. :)
21:29 jcamins       And it's running XP? I thought XP was a 9yo OS.
21:29 Elay          is 2 yo. But can't upgrade until 3.
21:28 * jcamins     always uses amd64, but your computer is old enough that it might not be 64-bit.
21:28 Elay          oh, good. I guessed right!
21:28 jcamins       Elay: in that case you might as well go with i386.
21:28 Elay          hard drive is 150 GB
21:27 Elay          RAM is 3072
21:26 jcamins       Elay: how much memory does it have?
21:26 Elay          lame, argh, I have fallen so far behind the friggin' curve
21:26 jcamins       wizzyrea: it took a lot of work.
21:26 wizzyrea      that means it's me.
21:26 Elay          xp
21:26 wizzyrea      curses.
21:25 jcamins       wizzyrea: I have, but I don't remember what I did.
21:25 wizzyrea      is the target computer 32 bit or 64?
21:25 Elay          i386?
21:25 wizzyrea      I'm trying to get them to, but I am failing. Miserably.
21:25 wizzyrea      has anyone ever gotten the SIP tests to run?
21:24 jcamins       *count
21:24 jcamins       We're on number... six? Seven? I last cont.
21:23 * jcamins     has been setting up Squeeze servers all day.
21:22 rangi         squeeze is rock solid
21:22 Elay          I think sysadmin prefers debian squeeze as welll
21:22 cait          as I have to start over again anyway... I might try debian too :)
21:22 * jcamins     is on an anti-Ubuntu kick.
21:22 rangi         debian squeeze would be mine
21:22 cait          I was using ubuntu in the past, but I think debian would be a good choice
21:22 jcamins       Debian is a very good choice.
21:21 jcamins       Yes.
21:21 Elay          debian.org?
21:21 cait          next you should download your linux of choice
21:20 Elay          eh, one of those things
21:20 cait          ah sorry, I should have warned you
21:20 rangi         helpful of it :)
21:20 Elay          Whoops. VirtualMachine cut off some of my connections on install.
21:10 jcamins       Yeah. I can't really offer that as "advice" on the mailing list.
21:09 rangi         annoying
21:09 jcamins       Unfortunately, that's the extent of my wisdom.
21:09 jcamins       The problem is probably Ubuntu 12.04, not user error.
20:55 Elay          Gotcha
20:53 cait          and linux will be the guest :)
20:53 cait          windows is the host
20:52 Elay          Windows hosts?
20:52 * jcamins     successfully created a Koha test AMI for himself.
20:51 rangi         https://www.virtualbox.org/
20:51 cait          but that was my fault, it used to work pretty nicely
20:51 cait          well... if cait is not messing it up... like she did yesterday :(
20:51 jcamins       That's how cait does it.
20:51 rangi         that
20:51 jcamins       I'd recommend Virtualbox.
20:51 rangi         have a linux virtual machine on linux
20:51 cait          we are using windows at work, so I have a virtualbox with koha there
20:50 cait          I do what? :)
20:50 rangi         actually cait does i think
20:50 rangi         im pretty much useless for anything to do with windows im afraid
20:49 rangi         chris_n: do you do that?
20:49 rangi         thats what a lot of people do
20:49 rangi         oh, you could put a linux virtualmachine on
20:48 Elay          can't I put in a partition and split my drive for a linux side or is that way too hard?
20:48 rangi         well maybe not anymore, he did once tho
20:48 jcamins       He's a saint!
20:48 jcamins       rangi: he does?
20:48 rangi         thats why i was wanting to see if owen was around, he uses git in windows .. i don't know how to do that im afraid
20:47 rangi         yep
20:46 Elay          Can I download the software to a local drive rather than trying to retrieve from server?
20:45 Elay          at /home/oftl
20:45 Elay          oftl
20:44 rangi         pwd will tell where you are
20:44 rangi         pwd
20:44 rangi         then
20:44 rangi         whoami
20:44 rangi         type
20:44 Elay          damn, I'm lame
20:44 rangi         ahh
20:44 Elay          whatever sysadmin gave me
20:43 rangi         what user to do you login as?
20:43 rangi         well dir might work if someone has been nice to you, and aliased it :)
20:43 Elay          boot Docs home lib media opt root selinux sys usr vmlinuz
20:43 rangi         not dir
20:43 Elay          bin  dev etc initrd.img lost+found mnt proc sbin srv temp var
20:43 rangi         ls
20:43 Elay          dir gives me
20:42 Elay          ls gives me nothing, so I have no directories?
20:41 rangi         cd /where/i/want/to/go
20:41 Elay          so would my sysadmin
20:41 rangi         Elay: cd
20:41 rangi         even
20:41 rangi         rain
20:41 rangi         so we could edit the patch in situ on the server, but then a plague of sysadmins would reign fire down on me for telling you to do that
20:41 Elay          I know that ages me.
20:40 Elay          so, question is, I have command prompt, how to I get to directory (DOS days are so far gone)
20:40 rangi         cool
20:40 Elay          I connect to my server via Putty
20:40 * kathryn     waves at cait :)
20:39 rangi         so, do you know if on your linux box that you can connect to with putty, if there is a git checkout of koha?
20:39 Elay          Love that. I'm putting that on my favorite quotes.
20:39 rangi         friends don't let friends use proprietary software ;-)
20:38 Elay          Trick is to get to where I need to be
20:38 rangi         good person
20:38 Elay          My tech support person is weaning me off Windows to linux
20:38 rangi         ohh cool
20:38 Elay          I've got putty.
20:38 rangi         hmm darn owen has gone home
20:38 rangi         now the trick is, you use windows eh?
20:38 Elay          Hm.
20:37 rangi         so the file you want to look at is C4/Templates.pm
20:37 Elay          So, I'm really just giving in. Resistance is futile.
20:37 Elay          My family all code in various languages, except Perl.
20:37 rangi         got your email Elay
20:36 Elay          Hi, cait & jcamins
20:36 Elay          And now, I want to learn to code so I can play even more...
20:36 cait          :)
20:36 cait          and morning kathryn
20:36 rangi         you can stay then :)
20:36 cait          hi Elay
20:35 Elay          Can I just say that I LOVE Koha?
20:35 rangi         it's a crazy concept!
20:35 rangi         hehe
20:35 Elay          what, participate?
20:34 rangi         now you are on irc, you can join us for meetings and stuff in the future if you want too :)
20:34 jcamins       Hi Elay.
20:34 Elay          I'm at the StreamNet Library, Portland, Oregon, U.S.
20:34 * rangi       is chris c
20:34 rangi         Elay = lenora .. say hi everyone who is still awake :)
20:34 rangi         heya Elay :)
20:33 Elay          Wow. I'm finally here. Sorry for the interruption.
20:32 kathryn       and morning all
20:32 kathryn       morning rangi :)
20:31 rangi         morning kathryn
20:07 rangi         Sweet ill email them back when I get to work thanks
20:05 rangi         Cool will look
20:05 slef          (oonly just sent)
20:05 slef          rangi: get my reply?
20:04 rangi         Get my email?
20:01 slef          rangi: momentarily, bbi30 after that
20:01 rangi         slef: around?
19:58 rangi         wasaju++
19:56 wizzyrea      well thank you :)
19:56 wizzyrea      hehe
19:56 cait          having a lovely signature? "I geek koha"? being awesome?
19:56 wajasu        then maybe one could grab the image, boot it, sync with git master, make fix, test, make git commit, run a kohapatch script to prepare the patch and instruct on how to a) push to bug report, b) send to list serv,  etc,  also, a script could pull and patch the vm just like sandbox.pl does.
19:56 cait          write a good mail? :)
19:53 wizzyrea      what'd I do
19:53 wizzyrea      what?!
19:52 cait          wizzyrea++ :)
19:49 wizzyrea      oo, cool.
19:48 wajasu        i'm working on a script that builds a libvirt based vm (kvm in my case) for debiansqueeze. as long as you have a bridge already configured to the internet, it will build debiansqueeze(standard+mysql-server+mysql-client+web-server) with no prompts using a preseed.cfg. I'm going to add koha's deb, and later git.  the image can be reused as a base image, or hopefully for one-off patch work.
19:48 rangi         Thanks
19:46 wizzyrea      yes. I will do that
19:45 rangi         I suspect this is the choir in here :)
19:44 rangi         Can u mail koha-devel
19:43 wizzyrea      there's lots of good stuff in there that needs to get in
19:43 wizzyrea      peeps - please remember to check on your stuff in failed qa
19:40 cait          morning rangi :)
19:40 rangi         Morning
19:26 sekjal        later, all!
19:26 sekjal        ah, well.  time to go
19:26 sekjal        that's not it
19:26 sekjal        there was one circ March 22
19:26 sekjal        not yet
19:25 jcamins       (yet)
19:25 jcamins       sekjal: I'm not sure if the patch was pushed.
19:25 sekjal        hmmm… it's not the most recent change to opac-addbybiblionumber.pl
19:22 sekjal        I'm on a pretty stark test DB
19:22 sekjal        hmmm… could just by my config, I suppose
19:22 jcamins       sekjal: it wasn't when I tested marcelr's patch yesterdayish.
19:22 sekjal        I'm getting a 404
19:22 sekjal        … is "Save to your lists" broken on opac-detail.pl ?
19:10 mbalmer       its the same.
19:10 cait          lobby?
19:10 jcamins       lol
19:09 sekjal        argh!  Why is there a Unicode character for "pile of poo", but not for a shopping cart?!
19:05 mtompset      Goodbye, everyone. Talk with you later.
18:53 huginn`       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8164 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , Replace IFNULL() with COALESCE() in all database calls
18:53 sekjal        working on bug 8164, and that's one of the areas where testing will be needed
18:53 jcamins       sekjal: marcelr's been fixing the list permissions slowly but surely to fix that, though.
18:53 sekjal        great, thanks jcamins
18:53 jcamins       sekjal: right now, yes.
18:52 sekjal        I believe they can only be dealt with by the Koha root user… is that true?
18:52 sekjal        does anyone recall the latest verdict on management of Lists belonging to deleted users?
18:50 wizzyrea      oh, no almost about it. :)

18:38 wizzyrea      a pretty clever one.
18:38 mtompset      Bug 8172 added. :)
18:38 jcamins       Yup.
18:37 mtompset      is wahanui a bot?

18:32 Oak           jcamins++
18:32 Oak           wizzyrea++
18:32 Oak           me go now. sleep time.
18:32 wizzyrea      just checking.
18:32 wizzyrea      k
18:32 jcamins       wizzyrea: a patch was submitted for that.
18:31 wizzyrea      [Thu May 31 13:42:11 2012] [error] [client 192.168.1.137] [Thu May 31 13:42:11 2012] detail.pl: Use of uninitialized value $countanalytics in numeric gt (>) at /home/liz/kohaclone/catalogue/detail.pl line 256., referer: http://koha-staff.lan.nekls.org/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/MARCdetail.pl?biblionumber=915
18:31 wizzyrea      also - jcamins- this may interest you
18:31 wizzyrea      yep, I found the offending record.
18:30 wizzyrea      bc it only happens on one specific query.
18:30 wizzyrea      I think it's bad data.
18:30 wizzyrea      I'm really wondering if these errors, at least the date one
18:29 Oak           hmm.
18:29 kf            Oak: :P
18:29 wizzyrea      later kf
18:29 jcamins       Then I think it went back down.
18:29 Oak           bye kf
18:29 jcamins       Oak: it was briefly.
18:29 Oak           finally
18:29 kf            bye all :)
18:29 kf            yes
18:29 mtompset      Oh sucky! I have to register for bugzilla too?!
18:28 Oak           jcamins, is it up now?
18:28 Oak           mtompset++
18:28 Oak           but still
18:26 mtompset      It solves one thing, but not what I was hoping for yet.
18:26 mtompset      Anyways...
18:26 mtompset      Perhaps...
18:25 mtompset      It will dereference incorrectly.
18:25 slef          mtompset: without it, the rest of the parameters to buildQuery will be ignored IIRC
18:24 jcamins       Oh, it certainly needs the \.
18:24 slef          mtompset: line 1038 of /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Search.pm does suggest it should have a \ I think
18:23 wizzyrea      putting it in doesn't make the error go away
18:22 jcamins       Bah. I stuck the apt repo on an old VPS, and apparently a lot of people (including me) decided to hit it at the same time, bringing it down.
18:22 wizzyrea      no slash
18:21 mtompset      line 75
18:21 wizzyrea      yep
18:21 mtompset      wizzyrea, could you take a look at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/cataloguing/addbooks.pl and tell me if there is a \ on the @limits?
18:19 huginn`       slef: downloading the Perl source
18:19 slef          huginn`: you're a bit useless today.
18:19 huginn`       slef: No results for "Use of uninitialized value in numeric eq."
18:19 slef          @query Use of uninitialized value in numeric eq
18:19 wizzyrea      different query
18:19 mtompset      Which probably ties to the same bug...
18:18 wizzyrea      and the other error didn't recur.
18:18 wizzyrea      not even the same thing!
18:18 wizzyrea      interestingly, i also get this one; [Thu May 31 13:31:15 2012] [error] [client 192.168.1.137] [Thu May 31 13:31:15 2012] addbooks.pl: Use of uninitialized value in numeric eq (==) at /home/liz/kohaclone/C4/XSLT.pm line 249., referer: http://koha-staff.lan.nekls.org/cgi-bin/koha/cataloguing/addbooks.pl?q=addbooks.pl
18:17 huginn`       slef: No results for "Illegal date specified."
18:17 slef          @query Illegal date specified
18:17 wizzyrea      but we deal :)
18:17 wizzyrea      (it is both glorious and occasionally frustrating)
18:17 wizzyrea      probably not - we get all levels of users reporting bugs.
18:16 mtompset      Okay.... I guess the person might not have narrowed it down to addbooks.pl
18:15 wizzyrea      too.
18:15 wizzyrea      mm, try cataloging search
18:14 mtompset      Saw only 7 bugs.
18:14 mtompset      I did a search for addbooks.pl
18:14 wizzyrea      probably the best plan
18:14 mtompset      I'll bug report it.
18:14 wizzyrea      I highly doubt it.
18:14 wizzyrea      well this is juuuuust beyond 3.8.1
18:14 mtompset      Really? Maybe they fixed it in a later version.
18:13 wizzyrea      that *could* be bad data.
18:13 wizzyrea      but the search works.
18:13 wizzyrea      I do however get this one: [Thu May 31 13:25:02 2012] [error] [client 192.168.1.137] [Thu May 31 13:25:02 2012] addbooks.pl: Illegal date specified (year = 2007, month = 7, day = 00) at /home/liz/kohaclone/C4/Search.pm line 1656, referer: http://koha-staff.lan.nekls.org/cgi-bin/koha/cataloguing/addbooks.pl
18:12 * wizzyrea    does not get that one
18:12 mtompset      The snowball one.
18:12 wizzyrea      what was the error you were seeing
18:12 jcamins       mtompset: buildQuery is a rather horrifying routine, alas.
18:12 mtompset      buildQuery...
18:11 mtompset      Looks ugly, but as you can see the buildQuert code treats indexes, limits, and sort_by the same.
18:11 * wizzyrea    checks that on her 3.9 system… sec
18:11 mtompset      my @operands  = $operands  ? @$operands  : ();     my @limits    = $limits    ? @$limits    : ();     my @sort_by   = $sort_by   ? @$sort_by   : ();
18:10 mtompset      See the @limits? There's no \ on it.
18:10 mtompset      buildQuery(\@operators,\@operands,\@indexes,@limits,\@sort_by,undef,undef);
18:09 mtompset      Because the search appears to work for the end user.
18:09 wizzyrea      (seriously :))
18:09 wizzyrea      oh, that's noble.
18:09 mtompset      My goal is to stop error messages from filling the error log.
18:09 mtompset      No apparent problem.
18:09 wahanui       "What are you trying to do?"  "What is the goal?" or "What problem are you experiencing?"
18:09 wizzyrea      the first question?
18:08 wizzyrea      wait what's the actual problem
18:08 mtompset      Only the search from Cataloguing.
18:08 mtompset      But all the other searches don't trigger the error.
18:08 mtompset      You will trigger the error in the error log.
18:07 mtompset      Then do a search.
18:07 mtompset      If you go to Cataloguing.
18:07 mtompset      To think a tiny \ can make a big difference!
18:06 mtompset      They both have the same bug
18:06 mtompset      I checked 3.8.1 which I'm tinkering with on the side.
18:05 mtompset      3.6.3 is the one being used.
18:05 mtompset      I have two versions.
18:05 wizzyrea_away schuster - back now
18:05 jcamins       mtompset: weren't you on 3.6.3 about an hour ago?
18:05 jcamins       3.8.1 is the most current on the 3.8.x line, and 3.6.5 is the most current on the 3.6.x line.
18:05 mtompset      I've got 3.8.1 -- 3.8.5 is the most current?
18:02 jcamins       If it hasn't been, you report a bug for it.
18:02 jwagner       http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/
18:02 jwagner       Check bugzilla to be sure it hasn't already been reported, and then create a bug report for it
18:02 jcamins       Well, first you have to confirm that it hasn't already been fixed.
18:01 mtompset      Is there where I mail one of the lists and tell them about it?
18:01 mtompset      Hello?
18:00 mtompset      There's a typo in addbooks.pl
18:00 mtompset      I found it!
18:00 mtompset      I couldn't sleep knowing there was a bug.

17:08 mtompset      I don't want to reinstall from scratch.
17:08 mtompset      But finding them is going to be a pain.
17:08 mtompset      I agree.
17:05 oleonard      mtompset: I have a standard install of Ubuntu 12.04 and a by-the-book installation of Koha and I don't have a problem with Snowball. This suggests a problem with dependencies on your machine.
17:02 mtompset      Too bad it didn't solve everything, but it gave me some ideas.
17:02 mtompset      Thanks for the help and suggestions.
17:02 mtompset      Well, I'm off.
16:57 mtompset      I would like to know what versions you have.
16:57 mtompset      I'm looking at the code.
16:57 mtompset      Yes.... and they are Carp and Exporter.
16:56 wizzyrea      lingua probably has it's own dependencies that you are missing. they might not be listed in the koha dependencies.
16:55 mbalmer       slef, that sounds like I could be available.  Thanks for letting me know about it, btw!
16:55 mtompset      Perhaps newer versions break it.
16:54 mtompset      That's why i'm asking you what versions you have.
16:54 slef          mbalmer: 3pm UK I think.  The email gives it in US Eastern IIRC.
16:54 wizzyrea      sounds like you've got it all figured out.
16:54 mtompset      Snowball says Carp and Exporter.
16:54 wizzyrea      then it's not listed
16:54 mtompset      not CGI::Carp
16:53 wizzyrea      CGI::Carp is
16:53 mbalmer       slef, I will only join the event on june 6, so june 5 3pm I think I could attend from .ch.  3pm which timezone?
16:53 jcamins       slef: awesome!
16:52 mtompset      You have to look manually.
16:52 mtompset      Carp and Exporter aren't listed there.
16:52 slef          jcamins: of course, the list of biblionumber and these classifications is yet another file...
16:51 wizzyrea      http://screencast.com/t/iXqTjlSF
16:51 slef          jcamins: yummy :-/
16:51 slef          mbalmer: message me your email address if you'd like me to forward it.
16:51 slef          mbalmer: I can't do it for various reasons, but I didn't know if it would interest you. No worries if you would rather pay attention to conference.
16:51 slef          mbalmer: it'd be in edinburgh. I can forward you the invitation email. It's something silly like 3pm on the 5th June.
16:51 mtompset      So, I figure it must be in Carp or Exporter
16:51 mtompset      And I can't find the definition of _derive_stemmer in the snowball.
16:51 mtompset      Because line 55 has $self->_derive_stemmer
16:50 mtompset      Can you tell me your versions of Carp and Exporter?
16:50 mtompset      Most are bold.
16:49 mtompset      All mine are black.
16:49 wizzyrea      then you have a problem.
16:49 wizzyrea      basically, if it's red and says "not installed"
16:49 mtompset      Do you know what versions you have of those?
16:49 mtompset      As do I... I noticed it uses Carp and Exporter.
16:48 jcamins       slef: that's probably fullcallnumber, and you need to extract the numeric bit to stick in 082$a.
16:48 wizzyrea      .0952
16:48 mbalmer       sure.  in edinburgh of before?
16:48 mtompset      So what version of Lingua::Stem::Snowball do you have?
16:48 mtompset      Okay...
16:48 slef          mbalmer: do you want to take an hour or two out to do a sip3 teleconference with 3M?
16:47 mbalmer       and wahanui is wrong.  that one is ballmer, with to l
16:47 jcamins       slef: okay, that's fullcallnumber.
16:47 wizzyrea      it's not bold.
16:47 mbalmer       I will be in Edinburgh next week
16:47 wizzyrea      SMS::Send, you don't need for normal koha operation
16:47 mbalmer       yes!
16:47 mbalmer       slef, yes?
16:46 slef          mbalmer: was I talking to you about SIP a while ago?
16:46 wahanui       mbalmer is DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS!!!!!
16:46 slef          mbalmer?
16:46 wizzyrea      for example
16:46 wizzyrea      I think required for koha use, and required for specific function
16:46 slef          hehe. Examples include "371.9144 TOW" and "Reading age 6-9yrs. Interest level 7-10yrs"
16:46 mtompset      What's the difference between bold items and non-bold items, wizzyrea?
16:45 jcamins       What do the number look like?
16:44 slef          no they don't look like fullcallnumber to me... I'm trying to figure out what to put in fullcallnumber too
16:44 jcamins       You're welcome.
16:44 slef          ok let me go look at what went in there before... thanks jcamins
16:44 jcamins       Of course, it could be that they're using those as the fullcallnumber, too.
16:44 slef          heh
16:44 huginn`       slef: Classification number  (Repeatable)
16:44 slef          @marc 082 a
16:44 jcamins       I'd guess 082$a.
16:43 slef          jcamins: what would be your favourite bet?
16:42 jcamins       slef: it depends, but *probably* something else.
16:42 wizzyrea      do you have anything missing?
16:42 wizzyrea      did you check more -> about -> then click the "perl modules" tab
16:42 slef          I've been staring at this too long. When someone says classification number, is that items.fullcallnumber in Koha or something else?
16:41 wizzyrea      but then again i have all of my dependencies.

16:41 wizzyrea      weird, I run it on ubuntu and I don't have this problem
16:38 mtompset      I think Snowball is being called with an undef parameter, and that causes things to get evil, because there are no undef checks.
16:37 mtompset      I think I'll debug the problem later.
16:33 mtompset      C4::Search requires the snowball
16:32 jenkins_koha  Starting build #739 for job Koha_master (previous build: SUCCESS)
16:29 mtompset      Line 55 is part of the new() method.
16:28 jcamins       I think Lingua::Stem::Snowball is there, but one of its dependencies is missing.
16:28 kf            or whatever that is called correctly
16:28 kf            it looks like you are missing lingua snowball
16:28 jcamins       And it said you had everything?
16:28 mtompset      I also did the dep check script.
16:27 mtompset      I did a grep for use on the pl scripts and did a mass install.
16:27 mtompset      I don't think so...
16:27 jcamins       Run koha_perl_deps.pl -m
16:27 jcamins       mtompset: you are missing some dependencies.
16:27 jcamins       And, what version of Ubuntu?
16:27 jcamins       You missed a few steps.
16:26 mtompset      NOT.
16:26 mtompset      Oops... should have included the referer part...
16:25 mtompset      I see some error logs.
16:25 mtompset      oh sucky!
16:24 mtompset      Hmm... co-ordinate with the user an add entry... watch the zebraqueue table.
16:23 jcamins       You can check in the zebraqueue table, try and figure out when done is being set to 1.
16:23 mtompset      How do I determine where the failure is?
16:23 mtompset      Okay.... so it isn't.
16:23 jcamins       Right.
16:22 mtompset      I'm not talking importing a batch, I'm talking manually adding.
16:22 jcamins       Yes.
16:22 mtompset      If I add something, shouldn't that get into the zebraqueue somehow, so that -z would pick it up?
16:21 mtompset      Isn't -z supposed to be a partial reindex?
16:21 jcamins       liw: thanks!
16:21 mtompset      But -r is a FULL reindex.
16:20 jcamins       Right. -b -a -r is correct.
16:20 mtompset      /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -a -r
16:20 mtompset      and that it remaps -full to ...
16:20 jcamins       mtompset: okay.
16:20 mtompset      And that I read the script
16:20 mtompset      I'm saying the instructions in the FAQ are debian biased.
16:20 mtompset      I'm not...
16:19 mtompset      /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/
16:19 liw           jcamins, "bzr branch http://code.liw.fi/env-liw/bzr/trunk/ env-liw.trunk" should give you something that works for me
16:19 jcamins       mtompset: okay, then why were you running koha-rebuild-zebra?
16:19 mtompset      AH! I had to //
16:19 mtompset      /usr
16:19 mtompset      rebuild_zebra.pl -b -a -r
16:18 mtompset      No... I'm running UBUNTU. :)
16:18 jcamins       (for that)
16:18 jcamins       liw: do you have an example debian/rules file?
16:17 jcamins       So in order to rebuild Zebra you are running `sudo koha-rebuild-zebra koha`?
16:17 liw           jcamins, I've used empty packages as metapackages, which means there's no files in them, except /usr/share/doc/$PACKAGE/copyright and changelog.gz
16:17 jcamins       There are frequent updates.
16:17 mtompset      Which seems to be ancient now. :)
16:17 mtompset      yep... wget the latest.
16:16 jcamins       mtompset: so you used packages?
16:16 jcamins       liw: yes, I'm trying to make a metapackage, and I was wondering if there was any way to have a metapackage with a changelog. It seems like when I add a changelog, it requires a rules file, and I don't want to install anything.
16:15 mtompset      the script remaps -full to -b -a -r
16:14 mtompset      That's in the DEBIAN scripts.
16:14 mtompset      sudo koha-rebuild-zebra -v –full `/usr/sbin/koha-list`
16:14 liw           jcamins, you called?
16:14 mtompset      I read about the zebraqueue being flaky so chose the crontab way of doing it.
16:13 mtompset      http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_Ubuntu
16:13 jcamins       How did you install Koha, out of curiosity?
16:12 jcamins       Okay, that's correct.
16:11 mtompset      nothing with a que in it.
16:11 mtompset      3224 ?        Ss     0:00 daemon --name=koha-zebra-ctl.kohadata --errlog=/var/log/koha/koha-zebradaemon.err --stdout=/var/log/koha/koha-zebradaemon.log --output=/var/log/koha/koha-zebradaemon-output.log --verbose=1 --respawn --delay=30 --user=koha koha -- /usr/bin/zebrasrv -v none,fatal,warn -f /etc/koha/koha-conf.xml  3226 ?        S      0:00 /usr/bin/zebr
16:11 jcamins       If you see anything that looks like zebraqueue, you are.
16:10 jcamins       ps ax | grep zeb
16:10 jcamins       Did you start it?
16:10 mtompset      how do I know I'm not running the zebraqueue daemon?
16:10 mtompset      yep, it is.
16:09 jcamins       /var/lib/koha/*
16:09 jcamins       Everything must be owned by your Koha user.
16:08 mtompset      right there... what directory permissions?
16:08 mtompset      it is running as the koha user
16:07 mtompset      environment variables are fine.
16:07 jcamins       Third question from the end.
16:06 jcamins       I just did.
16:06 mtompset      give me the URL... I probably did.
16:06 jcamins       You followed the troubleshooting steps that describe this exact problem?
16:06 kf            patches to the documentation are welcome
16:05 mtompset      I read the documentation... it is drastically lacking explanation.
16:05 jcamins       You should take a look in that document. It's probably a permissions issue.
16:05 mtompset      -b -a -r does remove.
16:05 wahanui       searching faq is probably at http://koha-community.org/documentation/faq/
16:05 jcamins       searching faq?
16:05 mtompset      -b -a -z doesn't remove
16:05 mtompset      Delete an item...
16:04 mtompset      -b -a -r... does show up.
16:04 mtompset      -b -a... doesn't show up.
16:04 mtompset      I add an item
16:04 mtompset      I'm trying to figure out why certain options aren't behaving as expected... perhaps I don't understand the queue or something.
16:04 jcamins       mtompset: "Know" is kind of a strong word.
16:03 mtompset      Okay... does anyone here know about the mess that is Zebra?
16:02 mtompset      Bye. :)
16:01 gaetan_B      bye !
16:01 mtompset      Okay... this is useful info... now how to save it somewhere to look at.... today. :)
16:00 oleonard      use the intranetcolorstylesheet if your stylesheet is on your Koha server. use intranetstylesheet if it's at another URL. use IntranetUserCSS if you want the CSS embedded on each page
15:59 mtompset      See if it works... later.
15:59 mtompset      I'll try cleaning that up...
15:59 mtompset      Because it seemed like some of those sheet were overriding what i was putting into my custom sheet.
15:58 oleonard      yes
15:58 mtompset      Perhaps... so you are saying that if I put my tweak from the reset-grids.css into the stylesheet that I set up with those system preferences, it will over-ride it?
15:57 oleonard      Quickly now will turn into time-consuming later.
15:57 oleonard      intranetstylesheet system preference, or IntranetUserCSS system preference
15:56 mtompset      I wanted it done quickly. :P
15:56 mtompset      I would... if I knew where to easily.
15:55 oleonard      mtompset: Why change reset-fonts-grids.css when you can override it with a custom stylesheet?
15:55 mtompset      losing blood sugar subscribing to all these lists... ;)
15:52 mtompset      That will give me an idea of how much those particular files have changed.
15:51 mtompset      That's also why I'm in the midst of setting up 3.8.1 in a VM.
15:51 mtompset      and I have the tweaks listed in detail in a file.
15:51 jcamins       Well, all I can say is, good luck.
15:50 mtompset      1) /usr/share/koha/intranet/htdocs/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/css/login.css 2) /usr/share/koha/intranet/htdocs/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/includes/doc-head-close.inc 3) /usr/share/koha/intranet/htdocs/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/includes/header.inc 4) /usr/share/koha/intranet/htdocs/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/lib/yui/reset-fonts-grids.css 5) /usr/share/koha/intranet/htdocs/intran
15:50 mtompset      I won't forget the tweaks.
15:50 mtompset      I've been told that SAML 2.0 is it, and there is no discussion.
15:50 kf            http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Authentication_Service
15:50 mtompset      No... CAS isn't an option.
15:49 kf            and it might be that you can get it indirectly working with shibboleth that way but not sure
15:49 kf            I think you could perhaps use CAS
15:48 jcamins       (the earliest release that could possibly have shibboleth would be 3.10... you'll have forgotten what tweaks you made, and the Koha files will have changed greatly in between 3.6.3 and 3.10)
15:48 mtompset      I'm also looking at zxid
15:48 kf            mtompset: we really not try to make this hard for you - we try to tell you how it will be easier
15:47 jcamins       You'll learn real fast how painful upgrades can be if you really want shibboleth.
15:47 jcamins       In that case, learn to use git.
15:47 mtompset      I'd like to keep my learning curve less acute. :)
15:46 jcamins       mtompset: never too late to learn.
15:46 mtompset      Haven't used git before, nor koha, nor a lot of the technologies involved in this beautiful mess. :)
15:45 oleonard      With version control you have the possibility of having git automatically merge your customizations upon upgrade
15:44 mtompset      So if we do upgrade, it shouldn't be too hard.
15:44 mtompset      I documented my tweaks.
15:44 kf            in my opinion
15:44 mtompset      Though I did like the ability to add CSS'.
15:44 kf            mtompset: I was afraid you woudl say that - but it's never a good idea
15:43 kf            not sure what you did, but it might be worth doing some research to save lot sof time and nerves later on
15:43 mtompset      I had to edit existing files.
15:43 kf            there are lots of options to style things without making updating a pain
15:43 oleonard      Actually using version control is for *not* busting style things
15:43 kf            if it's already annoying with such a small update, you will run into major problems later
15:42 mtompset      Nah, because that would bust the style things. :P
15:42 kf            mtompset: yes, updating to 3.6.5 would make sense
15:42 jcamins       You might want to read that document if you haven't already.
15:42 jcamins       There we go.
15:42 wahanui       i guess git is http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Version_Control_Using_Git
15:42 jcamins       git?
15:42 jcamins       koha version control?
15:42 jcamins       version control with git?
15:42 mtompset      To make it "fit" our things.
15:42 jcamins       mtompset: you know, you could just upgrade the entire system.
15:42 mtompset      Tweaked a bunch of styling things.
15:41 mtompset      Though I patched the login with 3.6.4
15:41 mtompset      3.6.3
15:41 kf            which version did you install?
15:41 * jcamins     is from the US- New York.
15:41 kf            Germany
15:40 mtompset      And you?
15:40 mtompset      PH
15:40 kf            mtompset: where are you located?
15:39 mtompset      At least one question got answered. ;)
15:39 jcamins       ^^ there we go. :)
15:39 wahanui       mailing lists are at http://koha-community.org/support/koha-mailing-lists/
15:39 jcamins       mailing lists?
15:39 wahanui       i think support is found at http://koha-community.org/support/
15:39 jcamins       Support.
15:38 mtompset      okay... on main page... where is the "yes, bombard me with lots of mail that I'll mostly mark as read"?
15:38 clrh          ook kf you have the same meaning
15:38 clrh          for me snif is like "crying" / be sad
15:38 kf            clrh: I wish too jcamins would be there
15:37 * kf          joins clrh in sniffing
15:37 jcamins       But you do need to subscribe to the mailing lists.
15:37 jcamins       mtompset: actually, developing with Koha is pretty easy.
15:37 jcamins       clrh: mtompset was wondering about it. I'll see the update to Bugzilla. :)
15:37 clrh          snif ok I will remember that I have to tell you when we will submit a patch
15:36 mtompset      tell me about it, jcamins. :)
15:36 jcamins       I'll be presenting via the Internet.
15:36 jcamins       clrh: unfortunately not. :(
15:36 jcamins       mtompset: installing Koha is one thing. Doing development with it is something else.
15:36 clrh          jcamins: will I see you at edimbourg?
15:36 clrh          but I remmeber it was a really "hard thing" to setup architecture (sysop ionfrastructure !?) don't know the god work
15:35 mtompset      actually, the wiki was good enough for our base install.
15:35 clrh          jcamins: we did a first work and I am waiting for customer test installation to validate it
15:34 kf            mtompset: when you are working with Koha the mailing list is a must have :)
15:34 mtompset      Or I could leave a message on their blog. I just don't like signing in and subscribing to things left right and center. :)
15:32 jcamins       That way when dpavlin isn't away he can respond. :)
15:32 mtompset      It's an protocol definition of how to authenticate and give access to services. At least that's my take on it.
15:32 jcamins       It might be worth sending an e-mail to koha-devel.
15:32 jcamins       Since I have no idea what SAML is (even after skimming Wikipedia), I can't really help you, sorry.
15:30 mtompset      points at pieces, but I'm not sure I understand how the patchwork works.
15:30 mtompset      Well, dpavlin's blog http://blog.rot13.org/2011/06/saml2-sp-with-perl-webapp.html
15:30 jcamins       clrh: you don't have a schedule for shibboleth integration, do you?
15:29 jcamins       Estimated Time of Arrival.
15:29 jcamins       mtompset: no.
15:29 kf            ETA?
15:29 mtompset      Is there any ETAs?
15:29 kf            they were...
15:29 jcamins       mtompset: dpavlin may know something about it, then.
15:29 kf            I think jcamins is right, biblibre said there were working on shibboleth integration with Koha.
15:29 mtompset      I suspect that is dpavlin_away right now.
15:28 mtompset      I also found Dobrica Pavlinušić's blog.
15:28 jcamins       mtompset: a quick wikipedia search on SAML suggests that any work there is on it would be in BibLibre's work on shibboleth, but I've certainly never heard of it before.
15:27 mtompset      But other than that, nothing seems to be out there.
15:26 mtompset      I found a thread on some mailing list from March.
15:26 mtompset      I thought that perhaps an interactive community might have a better chance at pointing me to SAML 2.0 integration with Koha. :)
15:25 oleonard      Hi mtompset do you have a question?
15:25 mtompset      Hello?
15:20 clrh_         ?
15:11 jcamins       liw: around?
14:50 Oak           funny
14:41 jcamins       He's asleep in his box top (with a tissue paper mattress... what a spoiled cat), and every few minutes he wakes up enough to very theatrically roll around on his back and look at me accusingly before nodding off again.
14:41 jcamins       Must be.
14:40 magnuse       isn't it?
14:35 jcamins       Especially if it openid is a code word for "tummy scratching."
14:35 * jcamins     thinks Myshkin approves as well.
14:30 magnuse       openid++
14:08 jcamins       That would make sense.
14:08 wizzyrea      that solution would require no further work on WordPress.
14:07 wizzyrea      then you could just use OpenID
14:07 wizzyrea      actually, it would be cool if you could make Koha an OpenID endpoint
14:07 jcamins       Interesting.
14:07 wizzyrea      and keep only one username
14:07 wizzyrea      for say, databases.
14:07 wizzyrea      so that you can have patron only password protected areas of your website
14:06 jcamins       wizzyrea: why?
14:06 * wizzyrea    ducks
14:06 wizzyrea      "anybody ever tried to use SIP authentication with WordPress?"
14:06 wizzyrea      well here's your mad scheme of the day
13:56 Oak           jcamins++
13:55 jcamins       It is now working. :)
13:54 jcamins       Misplaced IF.
13:54 jcamins       Mystery solved.
13:53 jcamins       Odd... the javascript doesn't seem to be showing up.
13:52 jcamins       Heh.
13:51 wizzyrea      and bug free.
13:51 wizzyrea      or they didn't, and zebra is just that awesome
13:51 jcamins       But then I decided they probably did more and just didn't feel like writing release notes.
13:51 jcamins       And thought "is that really all they did?"
13:51 wizzyrea      oh that was for everyone else :P
13:51 wizzyrea      that's it
13:51 jcamins       I know. I saw the e-mail.
13:51 wizzyrea      Fix problem in dictionary due to increase max size of term.
13:51 wizzyrea      Fix buffer overrun for terms using ICU normalization.
13:51 wizzyrea      Increase max size of indexing term from 256 to 512.
13:51 wizzyrea      um, thre are only 3 listed in the email
13:50 jcamins       I _did_ think that very thing, though.
13:50 jcamins       wizzyrea: presumably there are more differences?
13:50 jcamins       lol
13:50 wizzyrea      3 whole changes. They are ambitious.
13:50 jcamins       ... like the one I just found.
13:49 oleonard      jcamins: That's usually the problem ;)
13:49 jcamins       wizzyrea: yeah, I saw that.
13:49 jcamins       Before I show it to you, I think I'd better check that I'm not making any embarrassing mistakes in it.
13:49 wizzyrea      oh there's a new zebra version
13:49 oleonard      I'd be happy to check the markup if that would help
13:47 jcamins       Yes.
13:47 oleonard      jcamins: You're trying to do the tabs plugin?
13:47 jcamins       That's progress.
13:47 jcamins       Okay, it's no longer removing the <ul> and <li> tags.
13:46 oleonard      "In that I stopped reading after that"
13:46 oleonard      "You had me at root"
13:45 wizzyrea      and good morning
13:45 wizzyrea      I think you said "root" and he thought "/"
13:42 jcamins       Hm. the tabber is removing the <ul> and <li> elements, and not doing anything else.
13:26 umer          couldnt find it in root. thanks for the link
13:25 jcamins       umer: it should be in the root directory, but you can also find it online here: http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=blob;f=INSTALL.debian;h=2c41201138e5dcabf0a06d21cda3df632474469d;hb=HEAD
13:25 oleonard      umer it's in the root directory of your Koha installation
13:24 umer          couldnt find INSTALL.debian .. could u please guide me the path to this file
13:24 * jcamins     was going to file a bug saying that the MARC view is hidden.
13:24 oleonard      You could just as easily argue that the MARC view is "hidden" because there's a separate link for it
13:23 jcamins       Ah.
13:23 jcamins       Why?
13:23 oleonard      5XX fields aren't hidden there, they just GO THERE.
13:23 huginn`       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8170 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, NEW , 5XX fields get hidden under Title notes
13:23 oleonard      But that reminds me to be grumpy about Bug 8170
13:23 jcamins       I am designing a details view for authorities.
13:22 * oleonard    doesn't understand
13:22 jcamins       That makes it more like the bib details.
13:22 oleonard      Not that that looks great.
13:22 jcamins       Actually, what might be better is to set up a tabbed bit, and then just have one tab.
13:22 oleonard      If it's instructions for a form we sometimes offset it on the right, like on the list add page
13:21 oleonard      jcamins: I don't think there is an existing model for that yet, so you can do what you think works best
13:19 jcamins       I want to set them off a little bit from the rest of the text.
13:19 jcamins       Authority notes.
13:19 oleonard      What's the context?
13:18 jcamins       I know about fieldset and legend, but the box in question contains only text.
13:18 jcamins       oleonard: do you know of a way to produce a box with a caption-y looking thing outside of a form?
13:17 umer          ok.. thankyou
13:17 jcamins       If you look in INSTALL.debian, it has instructions for upgrading.
13:16 umer          oh.. i am using 3.02. is there some way that i can update it to the latest one?
13:15 jcamins       umer: that feature was added in version 3.8.
13:14 umer          ok one more thing. by default koha provides the functionality of calculating fines base upon days. is there some way that we could calculate fines on hourly basis?
13:06 umer          ahhan.. okay.. i ll look into it. thanks a lot
13:06 jcamins       ^^ that might be useful. It has scripts for a lot of migration tasks.
13:06 jcamins       Koha migration toolbox is https://www.gitorious.org/koha-toolbox/
13:05 jcamins       Koha migration toolbox?
13:05 jcamins       You'll probably need to write a script to read the data from the spreadsheet and insert it directly into the Koha database.
13:05 umer          just circulation data
13:05 umer          yes yes you got it right
13:04 jcamins       Oh, I see. You mean *just* circulation data.
13:04 umer          now what i want to do is, there was an old system, which has information like which book was issued to which patron and is still not checked in, which patron has how much fines etc
13:04 umer          no.. i have marc files, it has data related to records and items. i have imported the items and records into koha. this is working fine.
13:02 jcamins       umer: you will have to convert the file into MARC.
13:00 umer          any idea?
13:00 umer          a complete excel file of this data
13:00 umer          how can we import data from some excel file into koha. i know how to import patrons, i do have idea how to import catalogs and items. but if my data is like (petron abc has item xyz issued from library)
12:58 umer          i need a bit of ur help
12:58 umer          Hi, every one. i am new to this channel and KOHA as well. i have understood many things regarding koha and still in the phase of learning.
12:58 paul_p        )
12:58 paul_p        jcamins = just in case= I just pushed another patch (with doc and a commented line that should not be=
12:47 jcamins       paul_p++
12:47 jcamins       :)
12:45 paul_p        jcamins yep
12:45 jcamins       paul_p: did you push the changes to add sign off?
12:39 paul_p        jcamins = sandbox2.sql.gz on contrib/global/sandbox has been upgraded to 3.8.0 and his size reduced to 5k biblio (instead of 20k)
11:57 oleonard      Hi #koha
11:56 slef          BobB: OK, thanks for trying. I'll make a note.
11:48 huginn`       BobB: The operation succeeded.
11:48 BobB          @later tell slef BobB cannot organise the band for KohaCon - members are dispersed on relevant nights.  Sorry.
11:45 BobB          hi slef
11:06 drojf         slef: http://www.yourrights.org.uk/yourrights/the-right-of-peaceful-protest/index.html looks promising, i'll have a closer look later
11:04 slef          biab
11:03 slef          $headings is the first line of the CSV of course
11:02 jcamins       Ah.
11:01 slef          jcamins: ah no, I'm loading a CSV into the items table with a perl script and the C4 API
11:01 jcamins       slef: your example of how to keep Perl interesting looked like it might be a modification of C4::Heading.
10:59 slef          jcamins: no more than usual. In what way?
10:59 jcamins_away  slef: are you doing something with authorities?
10:56 slef          drojf: shame. Any "how to do a UK demo" and any volunteers to organise it?
10:37 * drojf       tries to pull zioha out of the revolving door
10:31 drojf         unfortunately not https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=214917285437566492834.0004bf01e005a41a2f7fa&msa=0&ll=51.096623,12.260742&spn=24.452056,67.631836
10:31 slef          any in Edinburgh?
10:29 drojf         found a different google map at edri which has 10 uk events. not all is lost ;)
10:28 drojf         heh. i never understood why they all use fb for that but it lead to 10000 people in berlin at -17° the last time i went so i try to accept it anyway
10:25 slef          or they're distracted by the monarchy going "ooh look at the pretty things, have some holiday, good peasants"
10:25 slef          yeah fb doesn't seem the natural place to organise against surveillance
10:12 drojf         54. wow. either uk folks are really not interested in acta or don't use facebook for that.
10:11 drojf         54 people going according to fb. if we have a public anti acta hackfest day we woudl be 38 already ;)
10:10 slef          I suspect whether there will be people for 8 hours depends on what the police do...
10:10 slef          I don't know what it takes to register a demonstration here. I've never registered one ;-)
10:09 drojf         i doubt there will really be people for 8 hours
10:09 drojf         Glasgow 9. 6. 2012 12:00--20:00 in UTC+01
10:05 drojf         what does it take to register a demonstration in uk? ;)
10:05 drojf         glasgow and london on the related google map
10:04 slef          EDRI.org may have links too
10:04 slef          the facebook page was public-viewable
10:03 drojf         just looking for something non-facebookish ;)
10:03 slef          Glasgow is a bit far for a lunchtime trip
10:03 slef          drojf: last I saw, the nearest was Glasgow about 1h away by train. There is a google map linked from their facebook page if you want to check it and let me know ;)
10:02 drojf         hi slef. do you know if there is an acta demonstration in edinburgh on 9.6.? i think it's a global (european) action day
10:00 slef          hi
10:00 drojf         good day #koha
09:53 slef          every so often I get bored with writing perl and then I write something like map { $column->{$headings->[$_]} = $_ } (0..@{$headings}); and smile when it works.
08:23 slef          stuartyeates: I've a nice sideline using the co-op to campaign for relaxing banking security... although I'm not doing that with paypal because I think I have too much money and not enough time there.
08:22 asaurat       i was talking about the NZ ;)
08:21 slef          ;)
08:21 slef          asaurat: lazy. I've been here 80mins already.
08:21 slef          stuartyeates: Great. And the reaction is to make the banking system more secure by stopping everyone being able to use it for anything.
08:21 asaurat       it's business time!
08:20 rangi         yay us!
08:19 stuartyeates  apparently it's too easy to set up a company here electronically and so people have been using us as money laudering transit point
08:18 stuartyeates  slef: the NZ-EU situation has changed in the last month, we've been dropped from an approved list
08:18 rangi         wouldnt be free, but in the region of 20cents
08:18 slef          rangi: if you have free domestic transfers, I can probably get access to an NZ bank account pretty simply.
08:16 slef          just in case anyone cares, international transfers in the UK are under £10 and US is $20-$40... bizarrely, I'm pretty sure transfers from most of the EU to us cost nothing as long as they're sent in Euros, thanks to the EU
08:15 rangi         david from catalyst eu will be at the conference so we can have a chat and figure it out
08:13 rangi         probably, and no idea
08:13 slef          rangi: if needed, do you think you or catalyst could collect the other NZ donations into it?  And any idea what ballpark the transfer charge is?
08:07 rangi         im assuming of course that we must have to do money transfers to them from time to time
08:07 rangi         ie, get catalyst nz, to transfer to catalyst eu in the uk, and get it to you from there
08:06 rangi         however, i could talk to work, it might be that we can somehow use catalyst eu
08:06 rangi         they do charge like a wounded bull for it
08:05 rangi         naw we can do etransfers
08:04 * magnuse     thinks slef is too lenient
08:04 * slef        sulks at paypal
08:04 slef          What about NZ? Can you wire transfer to UK or use e-wallets or are we begging paper cheques from there too?
08:03 rangi         yep, laurels parents have done that to us before too
08:02 slef          We've done that from the far east in the past.
08:02 slef          mailing cheques internationally? Yeah, that's true
08:02 rangi         cheques work, they just take a long long time to clear
08:01 slef          If Paypal do their worst, any ideas how we can collect the donations from the USA without them?  Wire transfers are very expensive, even US-US which I could set up.
08:01 rangi         ill ask david up at waikato too
08:01 rangi         right
08:00 stuartyeates  but i'm only seeing one part of the consortia, so that may not be an accurate description of the state of play
08:00 rangi         totally doable :)
08:00 rangi         ah yep
08:00 stuartyeates  from what i can tell we'll looking for a 100% hosted outsourced solution
07:59 stuartyeates  last interation they decided that all the real offerings were vaporware, but everyone else seems to be heading in the alma direction
07:58 rangi         happy to do a demo/presentation any time if that would be useful
07:57 rangi         excellent
07:57 stuartyeates  rangi: thanks for the hints earlier today. we're having another crack at picking an LMS in October
07:48 magnuse       kia ora rangi
07:48 Oak_          evening rangi
07:47 rangi         evening

07:44 Oak_          hmm :)
07:44 hdl           Oak_: at the time Paul and I worked, we worked as consultants.
07:42 Oak_          i mean i don't have a library job at the moment
07:42 Oak_          yes, probably because you all have jobs... and this is my MLIS project, and it would be better if people knew who did the work? no?
07:41 hdl           it is not something we usually do.
07:41 Oak_          hmm
07:41 paul_p        good morning #koha
07:41 hdl           But you also could add something to the about page.
07:40 hdl           oak there is an opaccredits sys pref iirc
07:39 Oak_          like, Deployed by --- or Implemented by --- ? or what? any ideas? or should I add a 'Credits' link in footer and add names of all the people who helped me. that sound better actually.
07:37 Oak_          how do i give myself credit for the Koha deployment and customization I did... in footer area of my opac? what words do I use?
07:31 Oak_          it is :)
07:31 magnuse       sounds like fun... ;-)
