07:02 mtompset     AHA!
07:02 mtompset     I triggered the error again. YAY!
07:02 mtompset     I think I'll ignore it. :)
07:03 gaetan_B     hello #koha

07:03 gaetan_B     salutations mtompset ;)
07:04 * mtompset   feels loved.
07:04 mtompset     You remembered. :)
07:10 mtompset     Comme ca va, gaetan_B? (sorry if my French is rusty. I don't practice what they taught in highschool.)
07:10 mtompset     Greetings, matts
07:15 mbalmer      hi cait!
07:15 mbalmer      (and all of koha)
07:16 mtompset     mblamer?
07:16 mtompset     Hmm... is the bot missing? or are you now undefined, mbalmer?
07:17 gaetan_B     ça va bien mtompset ! but don't worry, i don't expect people to master french ;)
07:17 gaetan_B     (i do a lot of mistakes myself!)
07:19 drojf        hi #koha
07:20 mtompset     Yes, but it is nice to use a person's language if you even know un petite peu.
07:20 mtompset     People appreciate it. :)
07:20 mtompset     Greetings, drojf.
07:20 drojf        hey mtompset
07:20 wahanui      i guess mtompset is currently in the Philippines and is coding up a bash script storm in the midst of seasonal typhoons.
07:21 mtompset     No... today I'm back at looking at Koha code.
07:21 mtompset     wahanui: forget mtompset
07:21 wahanui      mtompset: I forgot mtompset
07:21 mtj          anyone have any koha + (vufind or blacklight) stories?
07:23 mtompset     Sorry. I do not, mtj.
07:24 mtj          oooh, and Koha + DAISY? a worthy idea :)  -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DAISY_Digital_Talking_Book
07:25 mtj          via a firefox plugin ? https://launchpad.net/daisyextension
07:26 mtj          … FF plugin looks a little non-active recently tho… :(
07:26 mtj          "Currently only works in Firefox 3.x and not in Firefox 4+. Further development is under consideration."
07:29 magnuse      hehe
07:29 drojf        mtj: i'm not familiar with DAISY but maybe it's possible to enhance bug 8377 to support this?
07:29 huginn       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8377 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, mirko, Signed Off , Show HTML5 video/ audio for media files in OPAC and staff client
07:30 mtj          meh, afaict, no current  FOSS software players for DAISY :(
07:31 drojf        http://code.google.com/p/mobile-daisy-html5-player/
07:32 mtompset     FOSS?
07:33 rangi        be better if it was ogg, not mp3, thats an issue for any FOSS player
07:33 mtompset     wahanui: FOSS is Free and Open-Source Software.
07:33 wahanui      OK, mtompset.
07:33 rangi        but afaict its just another thing to catalogue
07:33 mtompset     afaict?
07:33 * rangi      will continue to resist storing things in Koha .. there are tools for that already, storing metadata is fine
07:34 mtj          'as far a i can tell'
07:34 mtompset     wahanui: afaict is As Far As I Can Tell.
07:34 wahanui      OK, mtompset.
07:34 mtompset     wahanui should know these, for people who don't.
07:34 wahanui      mtompset: wish i knew
07:34 mtj          woah DASIY uses mp3 ?!
07:35 drojf        that's what wikipdia said
07:35 rangi        yep
07:37 mtj          wow  so it is  -   what a fail ?!
07:38 mtj          oh well, its fixable surely?
07:39 kf           good morning #koha
07:39 mtj          ie: update the spec to use ogg, send the ogg patch, etc… :)
07:39 rangi        its just a standard for audio material, im not sure how/why  we would want to do anything more than catalogue DAISY items
07:40 mtj          drojf++ thanks , nice link :) i have found some other  examples too
07:41 mtj          i think i mean 'DAISY has no FOSS players, for a browser'
07:41 * rangi      is failing to see the link with Koha
07:42 mtj          Koha opacs with text-to-speech readers, for disabled people
07:42 rangi        surely thats a browser thing
07:42 rangi        not a koha thing
07:42 rangi        i think making sure koha works well with screen readers is a better goal
07:43 drojf        if you want to offer the contents directly from the opac it's a koha thing ;)
07:43 rangi        it'd still be a browser thing
07:43 mtj          well, text-to-speech has got nothing to do with koha, from a configuration perspective, but….
07:44 rangi        mtj: daisy isnt for doing on the fly text to speech
07:44 rangi        things like JAWS do that
07:44 mtj          yeah.... :)
07:44 rangi        making koha work well with that, would be far more useful, most visually impaired people will have a player already
07:44 rangi        lupin already did a lot of work on that
07:45 rangi        the OPAC is pretty good, and as long as we keep labelling things with good labels, not stupid things like click here :) it will continue to be good
07:45 rangi        but the staff client has issues
07:45 mtj          ok ok, problem solved already :)
07:46 kf           hm not solved - ongoing effort I would say
07:46 rangi        afaik (ill check with julius (our accessibility expert) tomorrow) DAISY is dead
07:47 rangi        superceded by all the crappy drm ridden audiobook formats
07:47 mtj          rangi++ thanks, awesome info
07:49 mtj          bah,  JAWS is  non-free
07:49 mtj          -> http://www.freedomscientific.com/products/fs/jaws-product-page.asp
07:51 rangi        yep, there are some free software readers, but they suck
07:51 mtj          rangi, is there better FOSS software.  similar to DAISY ?
07:51 mtj          gotcha
07:51 rangi        daisy is a file format, not a screen reader
07:51 rangi        totally diffferent things
07:51 rangi        ill ask julius what the current least sucky one is
07:51 kf           I think lupin worked on some too
07:51 rangi        it's handy having a blind colleague
07:52 kf           for linux
07:54 mtj          rangi, oops yeah, i'm getting DAISY mixed up as a webbrowser text-to-speech player, not a file spec :/
07:55 mtj          they *are* totally different :p
07:55 rangi        :)
07:55 mtj          SLAPPPPP
07:55 mtj          ok, next...
07:56 rangi        nvda i think
07:56 rangi        is one ive heard of
07:56 rangi        lots here
07:56 rangi        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_screen_readers
07:57 mtj          theres a weird similar level of software fail in the text-speech market, as library market
07:57 rangi        yes
07:58 mtj          often project with best intentions… but software built on closed-source software stacks...
07:58 rangi        yup
08:04 mtj          like, the offical DAISY consortium player - built using windows MFC
08:08 rangi        http://weirdinwellington.com/post/29816364090/tasman-street
08:25 magnuse      lol
08:31 rangi        mtj: have you seen the new vodafone ad?
08:32 mtj          nope, 1 tic...
08:32 mtj          url even?
08:33 mtj          rangi,  girl on swing and little doggy ? :)
08:34 rangi        mtj: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96vH_nfXsI8&feature=plcp
08:35 mtj          my fav.. kimbra live with a sampler  -> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sd7GLvMYSHI
08:35 rangi        i like the robot dolphin
08:37 mtj          yay for computers! :)
08:37 rangi        hey eythian
08:37 wahanui      hmmm... eythian is in NZ. ;) or a good influence
08:38 eythian      hello
08:40 kf           hello eythian :)
08:41 kf           rangi: the dolphin is great :)
08:42 mtompset     Love the subtitle: "That dolphin swallowed a man!"
08:43 tweetbot`    [off] twitter: @mikromarc: "The Bibits AS Daily is out! http://t.co/Ys8A4TGL â–¸ Top stories today via @kohails @jannicker"
08:44 mtj          rangi, cheers, that was great :)
08:58 mtj          although, i found the use of the possum to sell a 'product' on television, exploitative and offensive :/
08:59 mtj          if it had been a dog, well…. there would have been a public outcry!
08:59 rangi        thats cos dog cheese is gross
09:06 * magnuse    wonders at the "ethnicity" field in the borrowers table, again
09:07 kf           magnuse: yeah - it's hard to explain that - I had to for the privacy documents
09:08 kf           not sure if we could delete it? I think you can't put something in there since 3.0
09:08 kf           at least
09:09 magnuse      you can probably give it a default value when you import borrowers? and set it in a spreadsheet that you import?
09:09 magnuse      but i don't think it's displayed anywhere?
09:10 kf           hm no, don't think it is
09:12 mag          hi
09:13 kf           hi mag
09:14 mag          can anybody guide how to import opensource and other purchased resources like Springer and Taylor and francais in koha
09:15 kf           mag: it depends on the format you get the data in
09:15 kf           mag: to import into koha you need marc21 records
09:16 mag          fine, would it be only biblio data
09:16 mag          or ebooks and journal articles
09:16 kf           bibiographic data can describe anything
09:16 kf           you can describe any media in marc21 - but koha is not a digital library
09:17 kf           currently it doesn't support uploading pdf for example - you normally have the links in your records and then that's how you access the information on another server
09:17 mag          thats it
09:17 kf           mag: where are you from?
09:18 mag          but if i want to get data on any subject with links on say springer
09:18 kf           wb eythian
09:18 magnuse      kia ora eythian
09:18 eythian      hi
09:18 eythian      waiting for the talk on MARC::MIR to start
09:18 kf           ah :)
09:18 eythian      I hope it acknowledges that MARC is terrible :)
09:19 kf           it probably will
09:19 kf           mag: sorry, Iam not sure what you want to do
09:19 mag          i want to import biblio info on marc from other source
09:21 kf           if you have marc data from the vendors or sources you use the normal staged marc import
09:21 kf           manual?
09:21 wahanui      manual is at http://www.koha-community.org/documentation
09:21 kf           you can find the information in the manual in the tools section - staged marc import
09:22 magnuse      eythian: how could it not? ;-)
09:22 eythian      magnuse: an excellent point
09:24 mag          i m trying to do it directly from internet
09:25 magnuse      eythian: this is a general perl conference, right? not a library specific thing?
09:26 eythian      yeah
09:27 drojf        mag: what kind of source?
09:28 drojf        is the koha wiki down?
09:28 magnuse      eythian: and there is a talk on marc? wow!
09:28 eythian      yeah, ex biblibre person it turns out.
09:29 asaurat      Marc Chantreux ? =)
09:29 magnuse      and he is called MARC Chantreux, i think ;-)
09:29 kf           eiro
09:29 eythian      that's the one
09:32 mtompset     MARC ... nice play on words.
09:32 asaurat      hehe
09:35 rangi        drojf: looks like it
09:35 wahanui      looks like it is probably a replicate of /usr/share/koha/misc
09:38 eythian      OK, so far a lot about how marc is bad :)
09:39 eythian      and how marc::record, marc::moose etc are bad. I can agree so far :)
09:43 mtj          hmm, why is marc::record bad?
09:44 eythian      It's just not very nice to use, although I think a lot of that is being close to MARC
09:46 mtj          ah yep, still … its at least improvable
09:46 eythian      hmm, this doesn't look too bad really. it has iterators, grep, map etc.
09:46 mtj          regexs even, too?
09:47 eythian      any_field { tag eq '010' and say value } $record
09:48 magnuse      there is a marc::moose?
09:48 eythian      apparently
09:48 eythian      I've never seen it
09:48 magnuse      wow http://search.cpan.org/dist/marc-moose/
09:48 eythian      oh, this makes a DSL to operate on MARC
09:48 magnuse      by none other then fredericd, even
09:48 mtj          is their a turbomarc 'converter' anywhere?
09:49 mtj          ie: a marc2turbomarc tool
09:49 magnuse      dsl?
09:49 mbalmer      domain specific language
09:49 magnuse      ah, thanks mbalmer
09:49 eythian      with_fields { @$_ = grep {(tag) !~ /^9/} @$_ } $record;
09:50 mbalmer      http://www.vnode.ch/node/42 fwiw ;)
09:50 magnuse      DSL is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain-specific_language
09:51 kf           DSL?
09:51 wahanui      it has been said that DSL is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain-specific_language
09:51 eythian      also yaml to MARC conversion as part of the module, with names (e.g. 'author') for fields.
09:51 eythian      and translator plugins to make this work
09:52 kf           hm isn't gmcharlt maintainer of marc::record
09:52 kf           ?
09:52 magnuse      kf: yup, think so
09:56 mtj          fredericd++ marc::moose == impressive!
09:57 mtompset     But it is copyright 2012, so MARC::Moose is very new, it would seem.
09:57 magnuse      i get a failing test when i try to cpan it
10:00 mtompset     Okay, I know we aren't suppose to have indentation wars, but have we a standard that is preferred? I hate reading code, and having to change the tab-sizes multiple times in the same function.
10:01 mtompset     (i.e. one section is written with one size, and another part with another, and another with spaces)
10:03 magnuse      coding guidelines?
10:03 wahanui      coding guidelines are http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Coding_Guidelines
10:04 mtompset     Seems the wiki is down.
10:05 kf           mtompset: I rmember telling you it's 4 spaces
10:05 kf           and that you are only supposed to reindent your new code and where you change code - to keep history ;)
10:06 mtompset     kf, I blame my medications for my poor memory. :P
10:06 eythian      it's 4 spaces, but there is Old Code in there
10:08 eythian      this marc::mir thing looks good
10:08 kf           hm, does someone remember who hosts the wiki?
10:08 magnuse      kf: it's on the wiki ;-)
10:09 kf           yeah, that's the problem :)
10:09 rangi        equinox
10:09 magnuse      moahaha
10:09 kf           gmcharlt: ping?
10:09 rangi        unlike he is awake
10:09 kf           true
10:19 eythian      Was briefly talking to a guy from the Berlin state library. He has the idea that Koha won't work with their size (12mil records)
10:19 drojf        why would it not?
10:20 eythian      I think he has the idea that it's for small libraries.
10:20 rangi        state libraries dont circulate much
10:20 rangi        it will work just fine
10:20 drojf        i think that has been long ago
10:20 drojf        with the small ibraries
10:20 eythian      yes, I said that.
10:20 eythian      We're going to be chatting over beers this evening.
10:20 rangi        a 500k library that does circ would be much more demanding
10:20 drojf        rangi: i think they curculate a lot
10:21 eythian      along with the marc::mir guy
10:21 magnuse      i think the idea that koha is only suitable for small libraries is widespread
10:21 rangi        drojf: probably not like delhi public
10:21 magnuse      i think it's related to the "if it's free it can't be any good" idea
10:21 kf           eythian: do you remember who it was? I saw a familiar name on the list of attendees
10:21 drojf        rangi: no idea. we get quite some books from them for the non-koha project i work at
10:21 mtompset     What was that article link you posted a while back, rangi?
10:22 eythian      kf: I didn't get his name, though he knows you :)
10:22 mtompset     It addresses this.
10:22 rangi        number of records is meaningless
10:22 rangi        all you need for that is diskspace
10:22 eythian      _I_ know that, he didn't :)
10:22 rangi        yep
10:22 kf           eythian: scary :)
10:22 rangi        its a widespread library thing
10:22 kf           well, say hi from me then, just in case :)
10:22 * eythian    makes a note to add that to my presentation, actually
10:22 rangi        because proprietary vendors use numbers of biblios to rort libraries
10:24 rangi        maybe i should do that presentation at kohacon13
10:25 slef         rort?
10:25 rangi        lies proprietary vendors will tell you
10:25 * slef       runs patches2bugs
10:25 rangi        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rort
10:25 eythian      slef: don't run that, run patches2fixes
10:25 kf           I think they do a lot of ILL
10:25 kf           and circ in house
10:25 mtompset     Ah... sounds like FUD, rangi. ;)
10:26 rangi        mtompset: its not really fud, its lies about their own stuff
10:26 slef         Nameserver not responding :-/  Who broke wp.dg.cx?
10:27 slef         "The term is also used as a verb to mean the act of defrauding, as in "He rorted the system". "
10:27 slef         live+learn
10:27 mtompset     Ah... okay. They aren't using FUD to get people to buy theirs. They are rorting people about the lack of awesomeness of their own product.
10:27 drojf        rort'n'roll
10:29 rangi        mtompset: they use artificial metrics to charge more, oh you have 2 million records, it will cost more
10:29 rangi        this perpetuates the myth that numbers of biblio records is a useful thing to measure
10:30 mtompset     it is only useful for determining disk space and RAM you need. :)
10:30 slef         I prefer user accesses and circulation activity, but no-one seems to have that ready :-/
10:30 rangi        yep
10:31 rangi        thats a useful metric
10:31 slef         let's be generous and hope they have rules of thumb for biblios:activity
10:31 slef         bbl
10:32 mtompset     for a minute there, I thought the wiki was back... not quite.
10:34 kf           yeah circ stats are hard to get by
10:34 kf           and you still have to find some kind of metric for non circulating libraries
10:35 mtompset     non-circulating libraries?
10:36 kf           libraries that don't borrow books?
10:36 slef         mtompset: research and archive collections, mainly
10:36 mtompset     http://library.columbia.edu/content/libraryweb/services/faq/lio/noncirculating.html seems to be a good explanation for that.
10:36 slef         the most entertaining ones I've met are company libraries where no books leave the building - they just change location between offices
10:37 mtompset     slef: that's not really an organized library, but I know exactly what you mean.
10:37 slef         mtompset: I think their librarians would object to that ;)
10:38 mtompset     well, considering the companies that I experienced that in didn't have a librarian, no one would object. ;)
10:38 slef         They've "branches" in each building and then some get located in staff offices if the librarians think it would be helpful for a case that they are working on.
10:39 slef         at least at one firm I remember
11:23 kf           gmcharlt: ping?
12:02 clrh         koha-community wiki is down ?
12:06 kf           clrh: yes
12:06 kf           clrh: I think equinox is hosting it
12:07 clrh         snif
12:11 kf           hm maybe we shoudl mail gmcharlt?
12:11 jcamins_away kf: there hasn't been any activity on the EG channel yet, so I think Equinox hasn't opened for business today yet.
12:11 kf           ah
12:11 kf           thx jcamins_away
12:12 jcamins      Good morning, #koha.

12:43 eythian      hiya
12:59 wajasu       kf: i guess the overdue_notice has a lot more things wrong with it.  i'll work on it some more (triggerring).
13:00 kf           wajasu: did you see my second comment?
13:01 kf           my test case got a bit confused with midnight :)
13:01 kf           the triggering seems alright in master
13:01 kf           the problem is after your patch the listing does not work - only one item appears
13:01 kf           and the fine still not :(
13:09 wajasu       puzzling. but i'll try it with your use case.  i had actually seen multiple itmes handled, so i never got into that code.
13:09 kf           wajasu: my items were on the same record - maybe that's another edge case to look into
13:09 * kf         gets out a net to catch eythian next time he arrives
13:13 tcohen       morning #koha
13:13 wajasu       yeah, another path in the code. i know there are lots of rules. i i'll find the other path.
13:17 jcamins      tcohen: good morning. You were missed over the weekend.
13:17 tcohen       hi jcamins
13:17 koyauni      hi
13:17 tcohen       what was going on this weekend?
13:18 jcamins      We had a Spanish speaker in need of some help.
13:18 tcohen       oh
13:18 koyauni      do you know what is wrong with http://debian.koha-community.org/
13:18 koyauni      it does not resolve
13:18 jcamins      He used Google translate to translate what he wanted to say into English, and I used Google translate to translate what I wanted to say into Spanish.
13:18 jcamins      It's probably on the same server the wiki is on.
13:18 tcohen       next time mail me, i will get it in my phone
13:19 jcamins      We managed to get things working, but it probably would've taken you all of five minutes. ;)
13:20 tcohen       hehehe
13:21 koyauni      I am new to koha what will the best pack to install, I have a dedicated server running Debian 6+ , but I have many domains on this server, I want koha to run under one of my subdomain,
13:21 jcamins      It reminded me why I need to learn Spanish. :)
13:22 jcamins      koyauni: you should use packages. At the moment the wiki is down, but there are instructions on the wiki you should follow.
13:25 koyauni      will be any config to point koha to a subdoamin in a package installation?
13:25 jcamins      koyauni: yes, you can do that.
13:29 koyauni      what is the nam of the package please
13:29 jcamins      koha-common
13:29 wahanui      somebody said koha-common was the one you want, the main koha one needs a bit more work (its for setting up a single instance)
13:33 tweetbot`    [off] twitter: @ByWaterSolution: "Clatsop Community College Joins the Chinook Library Network and Goes Live on Koha… http://t.co/TvrwZtG8 #kohails"
13:34 koyauni      ok, thanks, I guess I have to wait for wiki to come up, I think it is better to use google CODE and Group for your documenation so you skip server issues like this
13:34 jcamins      koyauni: other than the fact that if you use Google code you're relying on Google.
13:34 jcamins      And are limited to the small subset of functionality that they think you should be allowed.
13:37 jcamins      wiki's back.
13:38 * tcohen     has become a Koha translator this weekend
13:38 jcamins      gmcharlt: berick got the wiki restarted.
13:38 koyauni      cool thanks!
13:38 jcamins      packages?
13:38 wahanui      somebody said packages was at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian
13:38 jcamins      ^^ follow those instructions.
13:39 koyauni      so I use stable version then
13:40 jcamins      Yes.
13:42 koyauni      do I need to do this first
13:42 koyauni      http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Setting_Up_Koha_in_Virtual_Environment_%2B_Using_That_as_a_Development_Environment#Step:_Install_Koha
13:42 koyauni      or that is only for development
13:42 jcamins      No, you need to follow the instructions.
13:43 jcamins      Are you setting up a development environment?
13:43 gmcharlt     the wiki VM ran out of memory at 07:00 EDT today -- we'll keep an eye on it
13:43 jcamins      gmcharlt: thanks.
13:44 kf           yay :)
13:44 kf           gmcharlt: thx :)
13:44 kf           equinox++ :)
13:46 koyauni      I add this file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/koha.list and add this line deb http://debian.koha-community.org/koha squeeze main to it please?
13:46 jcamins      Is that what it says in the instructions?
13:46 koyauni      it says, To get the stable 3.8 release, add this to a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/koha.list file:
13:46 jcamins      There you go.
13:47 kf           ooh news about the search rewrite on the mailng list
13:47 kf           and cool news too
13:48 jcamins      koyauni: You should work your way through the instructions, and ask questions only if you run into problems. Since you have decided not to pay for support, you're going to be on your own.
13:49 drojf        sponsors++
13:49 koyauni      :) thank you, there is reason no seek pay support, we are in Iraq with no banking system,
13:49 koyauni      and it is hard to get old men to pay attention to new tech
13:50 koyauni      but man have to do what have to do
13:53 wajasu       i was trying to apply a patch.  anyone ever see this  => fatal: cannot convert from UTF-8utf-8 to UTF-8
13:54 koyauni      when I run this    wget -O- http://debian.koha-community.org/koha/gpg.asc | sudo apt-key add -
13:54 koyauni      it says sudo: command not found
13:56 koyauni      I think your wiki, should say, if you miss sudo, run apt-get install sudo
13:56 jcamins      wajasu: I have. If you manually delete the second encoding line it will work.
13:56 jcamins      koyauni: you'll need to install sudo.
13:56 jcamins      koyauni: if you're new to Linux, I have a list of readings at http://www.cpbibliography.com/news/2010/10/using-koha-learn-linux/
13:57 jcamins      You could edit it.
13:57 jcamins      However, the wiki assumes (quite reasonably) that you know how to use Linux.
13:58 gmcharlt     chris_n: by the by, where is your mariadb branch nowadays?
13:58 kf           wajasu: yes, look at the patch file, there is a doubled up encoding declaration
13:58 kf           wajasu: remove one of those and the patch will apply
13:59 kf           well... if there is no other conflict :)

14:28 jcamins      koyauni: INTRASUFFIX=admin
14:32 koyauni      should it be sufix or prefix of the main domain
14:32 jcamins      What do you mean?
14:32 jcamins      INTRASUFFIX=admin
14:32 jcamins      INTRAPREFIX=""
14:32 koyauni      I use libraryadmin should I write libraryadmin
14:32 jcamins      OPACSUFFIX=""
14:32 jcamins      OPACPREFIX=""
14:32 jcamins      No, juset set INTRASUFFIX=admin
14:32 koyauni      ok
14:32 jcamins      And you set the domain to koyauniversity.org.
14:33 koyauni      with the dot before .koyauniversity.org
14:34 jcamins      Yes.
14:35 jcamins      If you weren't using packages, you would have to edit the Apache configuration files manually.
14:37 koyauni      so this is working now, how does it know that it is the domain library.koyauniversity.org is access point for the application
14:38 jcamins      When you do the koha-create command, it configures Apache with the subdomains we've discussed.
14:42 koyauni      I use a dedicated server with mysql already on it,
14:42 koyauni      so I do not need to run this sudo apt-get install mysql-server
14:42 koyauni      am I right?
14:42 jcamins      Right.
14:43 jcamins      Provided you are certain that the MySQL server is on it.
14:45 koyauni      yes, I run many websites and all of them using my sql DB,
14:46 koyauni      where does this koha put the DB? can I create that in my plesk panel for auto backup purposes
14:47 jcamins      No, as we discussed, you need to let koha-create take care of the database.
14:47 jcamins      It will be called koha_library.
14:47 jcamins      Are you the same person who used the koyauni nick before?
14:48 * jcamins    just realized that you might be someone else, in which case I'll find the logs of my conversation with your predecessor for you.
14:50 koyauni      yes, I did, we installed this but the server was messed up and we lost all data in re installation so I am doing this for second time,
14:51 jcamins      Okay. Since you're not real familiar with Linux, you'll need to follow the instructions, and then set up Plesk to backup the database.
14:53 koyauni      I created but the http://library.koyauniversity.org/ does not work :(
14:54 jcamins      Did you set up DNS?
14:55 koyauni      sorry I was logged out, and lost the conversation,
14:55 jcamins      koyauni: if you want to take a look at the previous times we've gone through this process, you can see the logs at the following locations:
14:55 jcamins      http://irc.koha-community.org/irclog/koha/2012-08-08#i_1046896
14:56 jcamins      http://irc.koha-community.org/irclog/koha/2012-08-09#i_1047381
14:56 jcamins      Before you refreshed, I asked if you had set up DNS.
14:58 koyauni      yes I did, I have that here
14:58 koyauni      http://kl1p.com/koyauni
14:58 koyauni      hope it is correct
14:58 jcamins      That's not DNS.
14:58 jcamins      That's correct, but it has nothing to do with DNS. That's koha-sites.conf.
14:59 jcamins      DNS is something your network administrator has to configure, so everyone knows what server hosts library.koyauniversity.org.
14:59 jcamins      I think we encountered this problem the second time we walked you through this as well, so you might want to check the logs.
15:00 koyauni      ohh, that is fine since the site is working, you can access the domain now
15:00 koyauni      but I do not see koha
15:00 jcamins      Did you look at the logs I linked you to?
15:04 koyauni      the access to the domain is solved now, we havecorrect DNS now, so all koyauniversity.org , library.koyauniversity.org and libraryadmin.koyauniversity.org are working
15:04 jcamins      Are you sure?
15:05 koyauni      see what command returns when I run create
15:05 koyauni      http://kl1p.com/koyauni
15:05 jcamins      That all looks fine.
15:05 koyauni      do I need to zebra thing as well
15:06 jcamins      It started Zebra.
15:07 koyauni      ok, does DNS need to do more that opening the site at http://library.koyauniversity.org/
15:07 reiveune1    bye
15:07 jcamins      You need to make sure that the DNS entry for library.koyauniversity.org is pointing to the correct server.
15:08 jcamins      Just call up your sysadmin and tell him/her that you need it, and in a few hours it'll be working. :)
15:08 jcamins      (there's a delay when setting up DNS)
15:12 wajasu       kf: i think i have you test case set up (2 items)  1 day delay and 2 daya delay for overdue notice trigger.  circ rule charge interval 1 day. w/ fine 1.50. how did you force the overdue fine? by editing the db table date_due for the items to be relative to your current day? and running fines.pl?
15:12 kf           by running fines.pl
15:13 kf           editing db tables is dangerous - easy to miss something that happens in RL
15:13 koyauni      yes it does, as our sites are live
15:13 kf           wajasu: you know that you can check out with a duedate in the past?
15:13 wajasu       no i didn't
15:14 kf           makes testing such things a lot easier :)
15:14 jcamins      koyauni: please humor me and check that the DNS for library.koyauniversity.org is pointing to the exact same server that you just installed Koha on.
15:14 kf           wajasu: use the date field and it will ask you for confirmation, but checks out fine and you have items immediately overdue
15:14 jcamins      I get a Parallels page when I go to library.koyauniversity.org, which suggests that it is not.
15:15 oleonard     Hi all
15:15 wajasu       i'll do that.  i also noticed, paul p added bug 7447, but i tried to use it, but i can't get --date=2012-08-21  to work.  so i'll use your method.
15:15 huginn       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7447 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, paul.poulain, Pushed to Master , Allow to specify a date in overdue_notice.pl
15:17 koyauni      if it would not point to the same dedicated server would it still open the websites we have?
15:17 * oleonard   tips his hat to huginn and slips him a shilling for the message delivery
15:17 kf           wajasu: I am suspecting it doesn<#t work together with notice triggers :(
15:17 kf           wajasu: I couldn't get the date option working with -t yesterday
15:17 kf           oleonard: hope he had good news :)
15:17 jcamins      koyauni: I don't know how you have your servers and DNS set up.
15:19 jcamins      All I know is that I am getting a Parallels page.
15:19 jcamins      I suspect the problem is you have a problem with your Plesk configuration.
15:19 jcamins      Since you have to pay for Plesk, probably you could call their tech support and ask them what needs to be configured to add a new subdomain.
15:19 wajasu       if a patron has $10.00 in fines, although i checked in the books, forgiving the fines, when i sign in as the patron, my items are checkd in, but i see the fines.  do i have to run fine.spl to reconcile? is that how it works?
15:20 jcamins      At this point the problem is not with Koha. It's with the server configuration outside of Koha.
15:20 jcamins      At least, that's my analysis.
15:20 koyauni      I have already created my subdomain and I access to it
15:21 koyauni      library.koyauniversity.org is in working order
15:21 koyauni      but it does not show Koha
15:21 koyauni      I have full control on my dedicated server
15:21 koyauni      and Plesk is part of the server
15:22 jcamins      You can take a look at the Apache virtual host configuration file, /etc/apache2/sites-available/library
15:22 koyauni      so the subdomain resolves well,
15:22 koyauni      ok
15:22 jcamins      It could be you had a typo in the koha-sites.conf, in which case you could adjust the ServerName to match what you want.
15:23 koyauni      I think we need some shortcuts to be created
15:23 jcamins      You can configure your server however you would like.
15:23 koyauni      I fixed the typo but reinstalling whole server that is why we lost data and started all over again
15:24 jcamins      Then don't reinstall everything.
15:24 jcamins      I don't see why you would want to.
15:24 koyauni      the library file is in /etc/apache2/sites-available
15:25 jcamins      Yes.
15:25 * oleonard   cheers all those who are doing signoffs and QA'ing
15:25 jcamins      If ServerName is wrong in either place, you can adjust it to whatever you want it to be.
15:25 oleonard     Poor paul_p is going to have a big backlog of work when he comes back!
15:25 koyauni      see what is says http://kl1p.com/koyauni
15:26 jcamins      There is nothing wrong with that. Your problem is with something other than Koha.
15:28 koyauni      I think we need to create shortcuts to koha in vhosts
15:28 jcamins      That may be. I don't know anything about Plesk.
15:33 koyauni      please look at POINT #4 here https://github.com/fredericd/Koha/blob/master/INSTALL.debian
15:34 jcamins      The packages already took care of that for you.
15:34 jcamins      If you followed the instructions.
15:34 jcamins      If you look in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled, you will see the same library file.
15:36 koyauni      no there is no library in there
15:37 koyauni      /etc/apache2/sites-enabled there is no library but bunch of shortcut files,
15:37 jcamins      Okay, I suspect Plesk had some way to prevent the packages from modifying the Apache configuration.
15:38 koyauni      can I redo that step see if will make any difference
15:38 jcamins      If that's true, you'll need to do the following:
15:39 jcamins      Nah, better to just do the following:
15:39 jcamins      Run: sudo a2enmod rewrite
15:39 jcamins      Then run: sudo apache2ctl restart
15:40 jcamins      Then run: sudo koha-enable library
15:41 koyauni      please see http://kl1p.com/koyauni
15:45 jcamins      And does it work now?
15:46 jcamins      koyauni: why are you following different instructions?
15:46 jcamins      Believe it or not, I actually know how to use the system. There's a reason I told you to follow the instructions I pointed you at.
15:46 koyauni      no just found it, now I did those command you asked me
15:46 jcamins      Okay.
15:47 jcamins      Did you get any error messages?
15:48 koyauni      I see a library short cut in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled
15:48 koyauni      no just went through
15:48 koyauni      root@koyauniversity ~ # sudo apache2ctl restart root@koyauniversity ~ # sudo koha-enable library Restarting web server: apache2 ... waiting .
15:48 jcamins      Okay, that all looks good.
15:49 jcamins      If you still have a problem, it's definitely something to do with Plesk, I think.
15:49 koyauni      shall I restart the server and see that will help
15:50 oleonard     tcohen: Are you working on handling multiple book cover images gracefully?
15:50 koyauni      I go get my child from nurery and be back in 2 hrs
15:51 koyauni      if you come up with anything please add it to http://kl1p.com/koyauni I will read it when I get back
15:52 tcohen       oleonard, i'm currently working on making calendar work on our setup
15:52 jcamins      koyauni: it's unlikely restarting the server will help. However, I don't know anything about Plesk.
15:52 oleonard     tcohen: Was that something you had said you were going to work on, or did I misremember who was working on that?
15:53 koyauni      I place a note on plesk forum see what will happen
15:53 tcohen       you are right
15:53 tcohen       i said I was willing to work on that
15:54 oleonard     tcohen: When you start on it I'm interested to hear what your plan is
15:54 tcohen       ok, i'll let you know
15:54 tcohen       (that was my plan anyway :-P)
15:58 * oleonard   feels that the current system is too clunky to allow enabling of both Amazon (for instance) and local images
16:00 wajasu       kf: i applied 8519 koha-index-daemon, 8607 date not replaced, 8378 <fine> syntax not working, and after setting up your use case, and ran fines.pl with calculate and charge in sysprefs, i got two overdue notices, one for each item overdue in the past two days, when i ran ./misc/cronjobs/overdue_notices.pl -n -t
16:00 gaetan_B     bye !
16:03 wajasu       kf: With templates filled in and one item in each notice:
16:03 wajasu       Notice1 1 day overdue:
16:03 wajasu       "The Tolkien collector" by , 828/.91209, Barcode: 888 Fine: £1.50
16:03 wajasu       Notice2 2 days overdue:
16:03 wajasu       "The Call of the wild " by , , Barcode: 999 Fine: £3.00
16:03 wajasu       kf: do i need to run using email?
16:04 kf           why did you apply the patch for the koha-index?
16:05 kf           wajasu: what I did was running with -t and checking the contents of the message_queue table
16:05 kf           it didn't work for me with EUR and GBP
16:05 wajasu       i created a fresh empty db.  did webinstaller.  so when i add bibs and items via z3950, the indexer fineds them quickly and didn't need rebuild_zebra.pl.
16:06 kf           it shouldn't matter here
16:06 kf           but normally I woudl use master - so you can besure it all works
16:06 kf           I think
16:06 kf           wonder where the differenc eis
16:06 kf           for me it should have been 2 items in the second notice
16:06 kf           does this work for you? if you have more than one item overdue?
16:06 wajasu       i didn't configure a default currency.
16:06 kf           on the same date?
16:07 wajasu       i agree.
16:08 wajasu       when i originally tested it, i had two items due on the same date, and multiple showed in the notice.
16:08 kf           it didn't work for me.
16:08 wajasu       but the logic must not consolidate across days.
16:08 kf           I am not sure where the difference is, but I reran the tests after I found out that it was past midnight
16:09 kf           so I did it twice and it never worked :(
16:09 kf           I can check the logs tonight, maybe they will show something
16:09 kf           did overdues output warnings for you?
16:09 kf           I had a pattern match warning
16:10 wajasu       my patch took care of all those warnings.  undefined, etc.  unless you follwed a different code path.
16:11 kf           I started from current master
16:11 kf           applied the date patch, then yours
16:11 kf           not much room to go wrong
16:12 wajasu       i also am doing a standard install.  make install...  after applying the patch, the overdue_notice.pl calls changes i made int Letters.pm, so as long as PERL5LIB is correct.
16:12 kf           I am working with a dev installation
16:12 kf           it wouldn't work at all if the path was not correct
16:12 wajasu       true
16:13 kf           no idea right now - will think about it and run some mor tests
16:14 wajasu       ok. grabbing lunch.
16:14 kf           I am leaving for today - bbl from home
16:14 wajasu       ok. no problem.
16:15 kf           test installation for this is htere too :)
16:28 oleonard     What are some reasons why an item wouldn't appear on opac-detail.pl? The item in question is not lost
16:51 oleonard     Answer:  OpacHiddenItems
17:33 libsysguy    I think i want to start writing perl modules
17:34 libsysguy    so I can make the user give me perfect input and deal with imperfect output
17:37 oleonard     Is that what perl modules do?
17:40 jcamins      lol
17:40 jcamins      oleonard: that's so diplomatic of you. :)
17:44 cait         hi all :)
17:44 druthb       Hi, cait.  :)
17:45 cait         hi druthb :)
17:50 wajasu       jcamins: it was suggested somehwhere to add [format] headers = "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"utf-8\""  to avaoid mangling non-ACII chars in commit messages.  It seems my environment(git version or locale settings) puts that in already, so to avoid having double Content-Tpye lins in my SIGNOF patches, I'm just removing the [format] section from my .gitconfig
17:51 jcamins      wajasu: when you remove the [format] section it fixes it?
17:51 wajasu       yes.  thats what causes the duplicat Content-Type.
17:52 wajasu       i tested with and without while soing a simple format-patch
17:52 jcamins      Awesome!
17:53 wajasu       it might be or might have been useful for folks with an older git version.  i din't test on my debian squeeze VM. let me see.
17:58 mtompset     Greetings, #koha.
18:00 mtompset     How is the minimum version required number determined?
18:01 jcamins      mtompset: the developer looks to see what version they have, and enters that.
18:01 jcamins      Often.
18:01 mtompset     Ah.
18:01 mtompset     I decided to re-look at Ubuntu 8.04 for laughs.
18:02 mtompset     3.6 and 3.8 fail mostly because of Modern::Perl requirement.
18:02 mtompset     However, even 3.4 had 31 dependencies that were missing or needed upgrading.
18:03 mtompset     As does 3.2
18:09 mtompset     If I install something from external repo X, and then the default repos come along with a newer version of that something, will it upgrade from the default repos?
18:10 jcamins      Yes.
18:11 mtompset     It would seem then that I need to take my linux skills up a notch and learn packaging.
18:12 jcamins      It's easy.
18:12 jcamins      See the reading list on the wiki.
18:12 jcamins      That's what I used to learn how to package everything and its kid brother.
18:19 libsysguy    anybody around here have any ajax experience?
18:20 * oleonard   has a little
18:21 libsysguy    I am working with the calendar.  I have perl returning a well formed JSON string and giving it to this function http://pastebin.com/JE36mcfB
18:21 libsysguy    I am using this function http://arshaw.com/fullcalendar/docs/event_data/events_json_feed/
18:22 libsysguy    but I get no data and the object shows up as empty in js
18:22 libsysguy    put the dump in perl shows it as good
18:22 libsysguy    my mind is boggled
18:22 libsysguy    and I think the interwebz are stealing my data
18:22 oleonard     FullCalendar is a new js dependency?
18:22 libsysguy    yes
18:22 libsysguy    err will be
18:23 libsysguy    if my patch gets passed
18:25 oleonard     libsysguy: Firebug shows nothing coming back from getClosures.pl?
18:25 wajasu       libsysguy: you might try using wireshark to listen between client/server hosts and see if you can find your json being transported to the browser.
18:25 wajasu       unless firebug suffices.
18:26 libsysguy    let me check oleonard wajasu
18:26 * mtompset   waves, "I'm off."
18:26 mtompset     Bye.
18:27 libsysguy    oleonard: it is getting what it should
18:27 libsysguy    or at least that is what chrome is saying
18:27 libsysguy    so maybe I am missing something with fullcalendar
18:27 libsysguy    i didn't think I had to run the render again
18:38 jcamins      fredericd++
18:40 oleonard     Gah, why is bash tab-completion in my VM so /slow!/
18:40 wahanui      Hmm.  No matches for that, oleonard.
18:42 oleonard     12 seconds to tab-complete the name of a file in the current directory. My VM simply under-powered?
18:47 JoeLib001    Hello. :-)
18:47 JoeLib001    Is the koha 3.8.4 release postponed?
18:47 jcamins      oleonard: I can't use tab complete with git.
18:48 jcamins      JoeLib001: nope, still expected out tomorrow.
18:48 jcamins      As is 3.6.8.
18:48 JoeLib001    Ah, ok. 22nd.
18:48 JoeLib001    For some reason I was thinking the 21st. hehe. :-)
18:49 wajasu       oleonard: are you searching over a mounted directory?
18:49 oleonard     No
18:50 jcamins      oleonard: to finish that thought, tab complete with git takes so long that I always just kill it.
18:50 oleonard     jcamins: Oh, so it's in combination with git that it slows down?
18:51 jcamins      oleonard: yeah. If you use ls for your tab completion, then change it to git whatever, it's fast.
18:51 * oleonard   did not understand what you just said
18:52 jcamins      oleonard: like so.
18:53 jcamins      Type: ls koha-{tab}int{tab}-{tab}pr{tab}{tab}mo{tab}acq{tab}whatever{tab}^a^d^dgit add
18:55 oleonard     What is ^a^d^d ?
18:56 jcamins      Ctrl-a Ctrl-d Ctrl-d.
18:56 jcamins      You can replace Ctrl-d with delete.
18:56 jcamins      Laptops don't have delete keys, and regular keyboards are too large to reach them.
18:56 oleonard     I get it
18:58 wajasu       i have /etc/bash_completion.d/git  on my archlinux and its fast.  Also, you can refer to some advanced stuff that may relate to your distribution. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bash_completion#Auto-completion
19:00 oleonard     Looking at Bug 8624 and wondering why we include so many icons which aren't used
19:00 huginn       04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8624 minor, P5 - low, ---, jcamins, Needs Signoff , famfamfam should be outside theme directory
19:00 jcamins      oleonard: I have absolutely no idea.
19:00 jcamins      I think it's the entire distribution.
19:03 wajasu       jcamins: i'm wondering if i should atempt to add tests to t/Overdues.t while I'm familiar with the code.
19:03 jcamins      wajasu: YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
19:04 oleonard     wajasu: jcamins sounds ambivalent. Maybe ask someone else.
19:05 cait         lol
19:05 cait         I agree wholeheartedly with jcamins
19:06 wajasu       ok.  thats my new pet project.  can i try to employ template toolkit to generate what notices should match to?  then it would be dual purpose.  maybe if/when its overhauled, we can cut down on lines of code with TT. (right now its a 28000 byte perl script)
19:06 jcamins      That is to say, pip pip, sounds like a jolly fine idea.
19:06 jcamins      Makes sense to me.
19:07 oleonard     We include 1,156 famfamfam icons in the OPAC ?!!
19:08 cait         huh?

19:10 oleonard     Alright, everyone vote for their favorites!
19:10 gmcharlt     individually!
19:10 wajasu       do we have any pages that currently do a master detail  view   with TT. for an example?  say opac_details.pl?

19:11 cait         tree?
19:11 cait         oleonard: are they big altogether?

19:16 nengard      jcamins, i went back to your original notes and you didn't say anything about it being experimental - so do you want me to make the manual say that you shouldn't use that preference in production?
19:16 cait         oleonard: ok... maybe we have some that we don't need :)
19:17 koyauni      anyone got experience with Koha on Debian with Plesk
19:18 koyauni      I have installed Koha but it does not shown the subdoamin
19:18 koyauni      very similar to this issue
19:18 koyauni      http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?p=636717#post636717
19:19 nengard      @later tell eythian - i already documented that in the manual: http://manual.koha-community.org/3.8/en/reportsfaq.html#serialtablefaq
19:19 huginn       nengard: The operation succeeded.
19:19 cait         nengard: I think he meant the database documentation :)
19:20 nengard      yeah i figured that
19:21 wajasu       i do a "git log" in my kohaclone.  i search forward for 7447, which was pushed to master. fine.  but when i look at misc/cronjobs/overdue_notice.pl  i don't see the added --date option code it added? Hmm
19:22 jcamins      nengard: yeah. It's a future expansion thing.
19:22 nengard      okay
19:23 oleonard     jcamins: What is the magnifying glass icon you mentioned?

19:23 jcamins      And friends.
19:25 koyauni      jcamins: I fond some similar issues to mine on Plesk but there is no answer to tread, please see http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?p=636717#post636717
19:26 oleonard     http://search.myacpl.org/opac-tmpl/prog/famfamfam/silk/drink.png
19:27 jcamins      koyauni: probably you need to do something special to make an Apache virtual host show up if you're using Plesk. If you read the Plesk documentation I imagine it will explain somewhere, but I wouldn't know what to look for.
19:28 cait         wajasu: hm not sure, if it's pushed it should show up
19:28 cait         maybe you ar enot on the right branch?
19:29 wajasu       i'm on master.  git log shows it in its history.
19:31 oleonard     jcamins: Your magnifying glass icon isn't famfamfam, so you're safe.
19:31 jcamins      oleonard: phew. I was worried.

19:37 koyauni      this is better : http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?t=111215
19:37 rangi        We have drink icons?

19:37 rangi        Do it
19:37 oleonard     One of 1,156 famfamfam icons in the OPAC
19:38 * jcamins    adds a "give me a drink" button to the staff interface.
19:39 oleonard     I'd submit a patch, but we're down to 56 needs signoff and I wouldn't dare raise it.
19:39 rangi        Hehe
19:39 * oleonard   even did the homework rangi assigned yesterday
19:39 * jcamins    is writing POD today.
19:39 cait         I ddi my homework too!
19:40 cait         well... half of it and wajasu claims it works for him...
19:40 cait         jcamins: you could add a: want this search to work better? Buy me a drink button ;)
19:40 jcamins      lol
19:40 cait         getting donations for oyur search rewrite
19:40 rangi        Chocolate fishes all round
19:40 oleonard     Want to see page 2 of these search results? Buy me a drink
19:41 wajasu       i reapplied my overdue_notice patch with kf's scenario and it worked for me.  she left for home earlier and said she was going to look thorugh her logs and analyze it some more.
19:41 oleonard     Want to see page 2 of these search results? Buy me a drink!
19:41 * oleonard   excuses himself for the hiccup
19:41 jcamins      lol
19:41 rangi        It was showing all overdues? Not just one?

19:42 rangi        @wunder nzwn
19:42 huginn       rangi: The current temperature in Wellington, New Zealand is 11.0°C (7:00 AM NZST on August 22, 2012). Conditions: Mostly Cloudy. Humidity: 82%. Dew Point: 8.0°C. Pressure: 30.12 in 1020 hPa (Rising).
19:45 cait         @wunder Konstanz
19:45 huginn       cait: The current temperature in Taegerwilen, Taegerwilen, Germany is 22.4°C (9:40 PM CEST on August 21, 2012). Conditions: Clear. Humidity: 90%. Dew Point: 21.0°C. Pressure: 30.01 in 1016 hPa (Steady).
19:45 wajasu       i didn't touch overdue generation logic.  just presentation.  i added 2 checkouts 1 2 daya prior and one 1 day prior.  with -t trigger two notices showed up, because there was a 1day trigger, and a 2 day trigger, but for different items.
19:46 wajasu       it seems only books due the same day are consolidated into one notice.
19:46 cait         wajasu: you need 3
19:46 cait         3 on the smae day
19:47 rangi        Yes that
19:47 wizzyrea     i wish huginn's weather bot would tell you what the wind speed is
19:47 cait         hm meant 2 on the same day, but more than 1 :) 3 total, 2 different dates was what I did
19:47 rangi        It should list all items
19:47 cait         rangi: should only with --list-all option
19:47 cait         else it should list in each notice the overdues for that trigger
19:48 rangi        Yep
19:48 cait         with -t --list-all all overdue items hsould be shown, without only those which due date matches the trigger
19:48 cait         and -t should be documented in the help that shows with -h by the way...
19:49 rangi        But it should never only show one when 2 match the trigger
19:49 cait         hm interesting
19:49 wahanui      interesting is sometimes good and sometimes bad
19:49 cait         wajasu: -t -n looks alright to me - have you tried without -n?
19:51 cait         wajasu: yep, that seems to be it - -n shows the correct notices. if you create them and write them into the message_queue table, they are wrong. weird.
19:51 cait         how nice... our test mode differs from waht really happens :(
19:53 cait         wajasu: did I scare you away?
19:58 wajasu       no. mom clled. she wins.
19:58 wajasu       callled
19:59 cait         ah
19:59 cait         I updated the bug
19:59 cait         and kf=cait... but tell noone...

20:01 rangi        My stop bbiab
20:01 wizzyrea     oleonard: that guy on the list, manos, that bug is the one we were working on yesterday right?
20:01 wizzyrea     with the call number sort
20:02 oleonard     yes
20:02 wizzyrea     he probably just needs to set his asc to dsc and flip it back
20:02 wizzyrea     so the value gets set
20:02 oleonard     But he also wants the callnumber sort to work by default
20:03 wizzyrea     your patch fixes that? or he wants relevance *then* call number
20:03 wizzyrea     which kind of makes no sense but whatever.
20:03 wizzyrea     @quote get 123

20:03 oleonard     My patch enables sorting by call number by default which I think is what he wants
20:03 cait         and if not - you still fixed a bug :)
20:03 wizzyrea     ok, I was just wondering - should we tell him that lol
20:03 wizzyrea     I will, if no one else wants to :P
20:04 oleonard     That'd be great,thanks
20:04 wizzyrea     okies
20:04 cait         wizzyrea++ :)

20:40 nancyk       see you tomorrow i hope.
20:40 wizzyrea     anyone have thoughts on how to find the record that causes "utf8 xc3 does not map to unicode"
20:40 wizzyrea     I was talking to someone about this a week or so ago
20:40 rangi        ok, proper tarball now
20:40 wizzyrea     now I have one of these pets to call my own.
20:41 wizzyrea     http://catalog.nexpresslibrary.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=deari&limit=
20:41 cait         hm not sure
20:42 wizzyrea     my thought is that it has to be something in a record that is wrong
20:42 rangi        yep
20:42 wizzyrea     i mean, duh.
20:42 wizzyrea     but how do I find which one?
20:42 wizzyrea     I've looked through biblio, and biblioitems, marc, and marcxml
20:42 rangi        switch off xslt
20:42 wizzyrea     oo
20:42 wizzyrea     rangi++
20:42 rangi        and see if you can then see the results
20:43 wizzyrea     it'll then be one of those right?
20:43 rangi        yup
20:43 rangi        assuming that doesnt asplode too
20:43 wizzyrea     hehe
20:44 wizzyrea     hm no it's still asplodey even without xslt
20:44 wizzyrea     same message
20:45 jcamins      Yeah, that's an error in MARC::Record.
20:45 magnuse      looks like the error happens in Encode.pm - that is in perl code, not xslt?
20:45 rangi        yeah but i was hoping it was being called by the xslt rendering
20:46 magnuse      ah
20:46 rangi        you'll have to start throwing in warns to dump the biblionumber then
20:46 magnuse      no more info in the logs?
20:46 wizzyrea     don't have access to them :(
20:46 magnuse      gah :-)
20:47 jcamins      wizzyrea: do you have public Z39.50?
20:47 magnuse      same error in the intranet?
20:47 wizzyrea     yes, in both
20:47 wizzyrea     and yes, I believe we do have public z39.50
20:48 wizzyrea     suppose I could query it that way eh.
20:48 jcamins      wizzyrea: connect via yaz, get a list of records, and try accessing them one at a time?
20:49 wizzyrea     good idea
20:49 magnuse      this works: http://catalog.nexpresslibrary.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?idx=kw&q=deari&count=50&sort_by=acqdate_dsc&format=rss2
20:49 wizzyrea     right which makes me think that it's an oldish record
20:49 wizzyrea     one that is on the first page of results for deari
20:49 wizzyrea     dearie also dies
20:49 wizzyrea     same error
20:49 wahanui      it has been said that same error is face earlier also
20:51 jcamins      It's the eighth result for "deari".
20:51 jcamins      (tested by lowing count until it worked.
20:51 jcamins      *)
20:51 jcamins      lowering
20:51 wizzyrea     lol
20:51 wizzyrea     wow. nice work there.
20:52 wizzyrea     but… what is it! lol.
20:52 jcamins      Now you connect with yaz, find out what the eighth record is, and know which record needs to be recreated.
20:53 wizzyrea     well yea - except I"m not sure that it's been set up with public z39.50, now that I'm actually trying to connect to it
20:53 jcamins      That would make it difficult.
20:53 jcamins      However! Your test server should have a record that old.
20:53 magnuse      or use the rss - easier
20:54 wizzyrea     derrr
20:54 jcamins      magnuse: ooh, good call.
20:55 wizzyrea     ohh - it doesn't work with rss
20:55 magnuse      hm, the sorting seems to be um, interesting though...
20:55 jcamins      Wait...
20:55 jcamins      Yeah, I just noticed that too.
20:55 jcamins      Yeah.
20:55 wizzyrea     good idea though
20:55 jcamins      So you use your database access to your test server to try and locate this record.
20:55 jcamins      Or you do a report.
20:56 jcamins      SELECT biblionumber FROM biblioitems WHERE marcxml LIKE '%dearie%' ORDER BY biblionumber;
20:56 jcamins      ^^ do this on your test server.
20:57 magnuse      the titles in the rss are different for limit=7 and limit=8 :-(
20:57 jcamins      magnuse: you want count=7 and count=8
20:57 wizzyrea     I did that
20:57 wizzyrea     nothing looked untoward, and we did searches on all of hose biblios
20:57 wizzyrea     and those searches all succeeded.
20:58 wizzyrea     in fact, my query was exactly that :)
20:58 wizzyrea     hose biblios!
20:58 jcamins      Hrm.
20:58 * wizzyrea   imagines a fire hose spewing marc data
20:58 wizzyrea     pshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
20:58 magnuse      jcamins: gah!
20:59 rangi        have you done one for that char?
20:59 wizzyrea     OH
20:59 wizzyrea     hmm no
20:59 * wizzyrea   looks up which one it is
21:00 rangi        its not a valid one, thats the problem :)
21:00 * magnuse    realises he is too tired for this and wanders off to sleep a little
21:00 wizzyrea     well but I don't know how it's invalid
21:00 wizzyrea     so how can I look for it?
21:01 wizzyrea     sorry, not making the leap
21:01 wizzyrea     lol.
21:01 rangi        try like "%\xC2%" it might work
21:01 * wizzyrea   will try it, is dubious
21:01 jcamins      According to the documentation, MySQL doesn't allow escapes like that.
21:01 wizzyrea     :)
21:02 wizzyrea     well I did not in fact look for xC2
21:02 wizzyrea     so I will :)
21:02 jcamins      "\x is not X"
21:02 rangi        try without the \ then
21:02 jcamins      Let me try that again.
21:02 jcamins      "\x is x"
21:03 wizzyrea     it's chomping on that
21:03 wizzyrea     nom nom
21:03 wizzyrea     ty for the suggestions btw
21:03 wizzyrea     oo 11 of them!
21:04 wizzyrea     oh oh pokemon… let's try that one
21:11 mtj          wizzyrea eythain showed me a way to regex thru a marc file to locate a glitchy record
21:11 * wizzyrea   perks up
21:11 wizzyrea     do tell.
21:11 wizzyrea     now, question
21:11 wizzyrea     would it be in marcxml
21:11 wizzyrea     or in marc
21:12 mtj          .. but it requires the marc data to be dumped to a file
21:12 wizzyrea     what if it's in the title?
21:12 mtj          so no awesome sql regex foo , from me :/
21:12 jcamins      wizzyrea: MARCXML.
21:12 wahanui      well, marcxml is a representation of the usmarc in xml
21:12 wajasu       cait: the info about -n -t vs -t  is what i needed. thx.
21:12 jcamins      Possibly also marc.
21:13 mtj          yeah, prolly both fields, yeah?
21:13 wizzyrea     and the xslt comes from marcxml- but it does it in both so
21:13 wizzyrea     hmm
21:13 * wizzyrea   ponders
21:13 cait         wajasu: ideally the preview should match the real thing... in the end
21:13 cait         wajasu: it's bad it doesn#t right now :(
21:13 jcamins      wizzyrea: both use MARCXML, I think, because rebuild_zebra does.
21:14 jcamins      Yeah, marcxml.
21:15 wizzyrea     I suppose
21:15 wizzyrea     the problem could be in the index
21:15 wajasu       i'm going to attempt to write a Overdues.t  and add tests to validate and document whats supposed to be happening.
21:15 wizzyrea     but you would think that there would be something funky in the record that would cause it
21:15 wizzyrea     … but it could be a spontaneous bit-flip I guess?
21:16 tweetbot`    [off] twitter: @kohails: "#kohails  Koha 3.8.4 released http://t.co/OOawI8FF"
21:17 jcamins      No, not likely to be the index.
21:17 jcamins      \xC2 is definitely MARC-8.
21:17 wajasu       cait: you might be able to explain why i can do "git log" and see 7447 (adding --date) in overdue_notice.pl in master, but no such option exists in my overdue_notice.pl
21:17 cait         I am not sure I can
21:18 cait         in mine it did exist
21:18 mtj          jcamins, how do you know that?
21:18 cait         or des
21:18 cait         does
21:18 mtj          thats its marc-8?
21:18 jcamins      mtj: 'cause I've seen it.
21:19 mtj          wizzyrea, id REALLY like to see a good way to fix your problem
21:19 wizzyrea     indeed :)
21:19 mtj          .. either some sql foo, or a command-line tool
21:19 jcamins      mtj: https://github.com/jcamins/cataloggen/blob/master/sanitize.pl
21:20 jcamins      Ignore the headers, which are inaccurate.

21:23 cait         no it's master
21:23 cait         are you stil running a standard installaton?

21:39 wajasu       cait:  but I still think i should see the 7447 changes.  if you do just after a git clone git://...   something must not be right. i just did a fresh clone and no --date option.
21:40 cait         and you are looking at the git controlled file?
21:40 wajasu       yes
21:40 cait         and git pull says you are up to date?

21:41 cait         maybe you are tracking the wrong branch?
21:41 wajasu       is there a git hash i can report to you to see if we are in sync?
