23:59 wizzyrea like wacky integrations.
23:59 wizzyrea i have only observed it in 3.12, but I thought it was a side effect of something else
23:59 trea good point wahanui
23:58 wahanui since when are you normal people?
23:58 trea since when?
23:58 wizzyrea ooo can ya not? I thought you could
23:44 eythian so you can no longer log in to the opac using the database user details?
23:41 tweetbot_ [off] @wizzyrea: "https://t.co/1pInWMdWJz I think this is interesting - crowd funding for open source software. Wonder if #KohaILS could benefit."
22:47 tweetbot_ [off] @nzKoha: "A chance to become a #KohaILS developer for librarians attending #lianza2013 http://t.co/76vaGCzFdx"
22:30 wahanui okay, tcohen.
22:30 tcohen wahanui: feature slush is also the date stuff that got passed-qa makes it into 3.14 with high probability
22:28 wahanui OK, tcohen.
22:28 tcohen wahanui: feature slush is september 25
22:28 wahanui tcohen: I forgot feature slush
22:28 tcohen wahanui: forget feature slush
22:28 wahanui i guess feature slush is the date stuff didn't get passed-qa won't make it into 3.14
22:28 tcohen feature slush?
22:28 drojf from the meeting log
22:27 drojf 18:15:49 <gmcharlt> cait: feature slush -- any new features that have hit passed QA by that date will be included in 3.14, assuming they don't raise signfiicant QA concerns on my part 18:16:29 <cait> thx :) 18:16:33 <gmcharlt> new features that have /not/ hit passed QA by feature slush are more liable to be left for the next release; if you want something that misses slush to make it in, you'll need to advocate for it
22:27 wahanui tcohen: I forgot that
22:27 tcohen wahanui: forget that
22:25 drojf i thought what passed qa is in, you have to beg for rest
22:25 drojf exactly
22:25 drojf i don't think that is true
22:24 wahanui feature slush is the date stuff didn't get passed-qa won't make it into 3.14
22:24 tcohen feature slush?
22:23 wahanui feature slush is september 25
22:23 tcohen feature slush?
22:23 wahanui okay, tcohen.
22:23 tcohen wahanui: feature slush is also the date stuff didn't get passed-qa won't make it into 3.14
22:22 cait kf is not here :P
22:22 wahanui kf should be writing slides
22:22 cait slides?
22:22 cait hm?
22:22 wahanui feature slush is september 25
22:22 tcohen feature slush?
22:22 wahanui OK, tcohen.
22:22 tcohen wahanui: feature slush is september 25
22:21 wahanui tcohen: I forgot feature slush
22:21 tcohen wahanui: forget feature slush
22:21 wahanui ...but feature slush is March 15....
22:21 tcohen wahanui: feature slush is september 25
22:21 drojf at least the date was right
22:21 * drojf crawls away in shame
22:21 drojf ok. then i do not know how to ask the bot
22:20 wahanui release schedule is, like, http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Proposal_for_RM_3_14_gmcharlt#Timeline
22:20 cait release schedule?
22:20 drojf and wahanui does not know it. i found it in the logs for last meeting
22:20 drojf i think its september 25
22:18 tcohen schedule for 3.14?
22:18 tcohen WTF?
22:18 wahanui feature slush is March 15.
22:18 tcohen feature slush?
22:04 wahanui eythian: huh?
22:04 eythian wahanui: I would like to, but now it's too far away.
22:04 wahanui go back to bed, eythian
22:04 tcohen hey eythian
22:02 eythian hi
22:01 tcohen Context_set_userenv.t maybe
21:45 mtompset set_userenv (I mean)
21:45 mtompset C4::Context is a module that would generate a whack load of tests. Should I put my setenv testing into t/db_dependent/Context.t? Or should I put it into a separate test file?
21:36 mtompset In this case for C4::Context's setenv.
21:35 mtompset I've been writing more tests.
21:35 mtompset not yet.
21:34 tcohen_ mtompset: did you try my unit tests?
21:23 mtompset How long is too long for a test file, before these split considerations should start crossing your mind?
21:20 rangi separate modules
21:20 rangi what you really need is
21:20 rangi yeah, if you need separate test files
21:20 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10892 enhancement, P3, ---, mathieu.saby, Needs Signoff , Make facets customisable - step 1 : store facet config in YAML block
21:20 tweetbot_ [off] @KohaILS: "#KohaILS [Koha-patches] [PATCH] Bug 10892 : Make facets customizable - step 1 store… http://t.co/DdyawV4v20"
21:19 jcamins Unless your tests get really freaking absurd, in which case a separate file might be preferred (see the Acquisitions module for an example of a module that should be split up).
21:19 rangi mtompset: no, tests for the package should be in one file
21:17 rangi back
21:13 mtompset Is there a recommended naming convention and placement to follow?
21:13 mtompset Should tests which focus on one function/method be in a separate test file?
21:12 mtompset Every C4 library has methods/functions within it.
21:12 mtompset Okay... question about tests.
21:11 mtompset Woo hoo! Flash crash!
21:06 Brooke hey cait :D
21:05 cait wizzyrea++ and sorry for interrupting :)
21:03 Brooke wizzyrea++
21:01 wizzyrea hm. I suppose.
21:01 Brooke if it came from the lips of wizzyrea, sense is always included.
21:00 wizzyrea did that all make sense?
21:00 tcohen \o
21:00 Brooke o/
21:00 tcohen thanks wizzyrea and cait
21:00 wizzyrea to do*
21:00 wizzyrea but if you are only now turning that on it would be fine tod o
21:00 wizzyrea but I don't really recommend doing that on an already in use system because it will overwrite any borrower defined notice settings.
20:59 wizzyrea you have to use the script in misc/migration-tools for force-borrower-messaging-preferences
20:59 wizzyrea yep
20:59 wizzyrea if you want that to be retrospective
20:59 tcohen same syspref
20:59 wizzyrea you have to do that in the category
20:59 wahanui kf should be writing slides
20:59 cait slides?
20:59 * cait is procrastinating and should let wizzyrea answer and work on slides...
20:59 tcohen if I want it globally?
20:59 wizzyrea if you want to set defaults across all borrower categories
20:59 wizzyrea then it will be on the borrower detail
20:59 cait tcohen: then go to a patron and set it :)
20:59 wizzyrea you have to turn on enhanced messaging preferences in the system preference
20:59 cait tcohen: first turn on the system preference
20:58 tcohen hmm
20:58 tcohen "patron messaging preferences
20:57 wizzyrea under Tools
20:57 wizzyrea overdues are handled through the overdue status triggers
20:57 mtompset http://www.kohacon10.org.nz/ doesn't work any more. :(
20:57 wizzyrea so like, 4 for "four days before items are due"
20:57 cait tcohen: where are you looking? it should only offer a pull down with positives
20:57 tcohen and the overdue ones?
20:56 wizzyrea number of days before due date you want the notice to arrive
20:56 wizzyrea no, positive values
20:56 tcohen exactly
20:56 cait tcohen: patron messaging preferences and advanced_notices script?
20:56 tcohen negative values?
20:56 wizzyrea oh you mean how do you enable them?
20:56 wizzyrea ?
20:56 wizzyrea set them
20:56 cait wizzyrea: it's annoying isn'tit?
20:56 tcohen wizzyrea: how do i set pre-due notices?
20:55 wizzyrea >.< the hazards
20:55 mtompset no problem.
20:55 wizzyrea I am rather snowed with actual stuff that we get paid for atm :/
20:55 wizzyrea aha
20:53 mtompset And see if you wanted to test the patches. :)
20:53 mtompset I just wanted to point out that I did things a bit backwards (oops!) and forgot to write tests until after. :)
20:51 mtompset We all know it is jcamins' fault. ;)
20:51 mtompset No, of course not!
20:51 wizzyrea <.<
20:51 wizzyrea >.>
20:51 wizzyrea hopefully you weren't saying wizzyrea <swearing>
20:51 wizzyrea oh right yea
20:49 mtompset You suggested that instead of just a single code, I could pipe delimit codes.
20:49 wizzyrea possibly?
20:48 mtompset Remember that conversation way, way long ago (it seems) about overriding OpacHiddenItems based on Patron Category code?
20:48 wizzyrea yea?
20:48 mtompset I thought of you the other night when I put up some tests as a patch.
20:47 wizzyrea hi
20:47 wahanui wizzyrea is a fan of selecting hunks for committing.
20:47 mtompset wizzyrea!
20:47 wizzyrea yep, responsive is updated every night
20:46 jcamins With them split, the Koha password can then be changed with a script easily.
20:46 mtompset Good security idea.
20:46 mtompset splitting the two credentials is feasible, yes.
20:46 jcamins The MySQL password can't be automatically changed, because that's simply not an option.
20:45 jcamins *feasible
20:45 jcamins No, what I just described is perfectly feasiable.
20:45 mtompset Now there's a dream that can't be done.
20:43 jcamins No, in my ideal world you use a script and don't need a root password.
20:43 mtompset But in your ideal world, if the password is encrypted, you would edit in the encrypted password?
20:42 jcamins And if you're manually changing the password, you might as well just edit the file yourself, since you must have sudo or root.
20:41 jcamins "Not feasible" and "can't be done" are more or less the same.
20:41 mtompset So then it isn't a matter of can't, but rather a matter of difficult, annoying, and not so feasible. :)
20:36 jcamins Yes, but only if one knows the root password for the MySQL server.
20:35 mtompset when packages are installed, the password is autogenerated in the koha-conf.xml file. If one knows the root password for the MySQL server, can't one reset them?
20:34 jcamins No, that can't be done.
20:33 mtompset Do we have a koha reset password script? Because that would be useful already. :)
20:32 jcamins And then you could have a koha-password script that generates one-time passwords for the Koha system users.
20:32 jcamins Right. If they can't, they're going to have problems anyway because their MySQL user isn't going to be able to connect by virtue of not existing.
20:31 mtompset And one could reasonably assume the manual folks should be able to handle that.
20:30 jcamins If they then choose to make the two passwords the same, that's their prerogative.
20:30 jcamins mtompset: if they're using packages it's taken care of, if they're running the Makefile manually, they still have to create a MySQL user.
20:30 mtompset Some people can't grasp that one password is different than another.
20:30 mtompset jcamins: That's great from a security perspective, but think librarian who wants to try Koha out, and have never heard of Debian before.
20:29 jcamins In my ideal world, the Koha credentials would even be bcrypted, the same as passwords in the database.
20:28 jcamins mtompset: both passwords would be in koha-conf.xml. The difference is the MySQL credentials would not work to log in to Koha, and the Koha credentials would not work to log into MySQL.
20:28 jcamins I'm not going to work on it because there are nowhere near enough tuits and that's low priority, it's just a thought.
20:27 mtompset So where would the koha needs to access all the tables in the DB password be set and known? And how would you split that from a koha system user with different system credentials? Would user 0 exist now?
20:26 drojf that sounds like a reasonable motivation
20:26 * jcamins was just struck by this thought, and wondered what people thought of it.
20:25 jcamins drojf: to reduce the number of MySQL servers with the password "katikoan"
20:25 jcamins Koha logs into MySQL using one set of credentials, but the kohaadmin user has a different password.
20:24 drojf why?
20:24 jcamins Have two sets.
20:24 mtompset Separate how? What do you mean?
20:23 * jcamins would like to think out loud a bit: would it make sense to separate the MySQL and Koha system user credentials?
20:22 * cait agrees with rangi on that
20:15 tcohen hi mtompset
20:15 mtompset Greetings, tcohen.
20:15 mtompset Bye, oleonard. :)
20:15 oleonard Time for me to leave. Bye #koha
20:14 rangi is worth doing, changing the entire tone of the conference, not so much
20:14 rangi i think making it more clear hosting a conference is a LOT of work
20:13 rangi we had a lot of sponsors that have nothing to do with koha
20:13 rangi it takes organisation, and a willingness to door knock
20:13 rangi we had no problem covering costs at kohacon10 in nz
20:13 mtompset AH... okay.
20:12 jcamins No, Koha is about openness and inclusiveness.
20:12 rangi as in we are different to douchebag companies like sirsi dynix
20:12 oleonard Differentiating ourselves from other conferences
20:12 mtompset removing a point of difference? As in comparing one bid against another?
20:11 rangi the inaccessibility, the removing a point of difference, the killing of a tradition for no real gain
20:10 mtompset rangi: What do you hate about the idea of a registration fee? The inaccessibility it creates? Something else?
20:10 jcamins I'll take a screenshot, but part of the left of the go button is covered by the dropdown.
20:10 rangi on my screen, its over the left of the go button
20:09 oleonard I don't understand what you're saying about the search dropdown box
20:09 rangi s
20:09 rangi ah yeah, when you switch on more option
20:09 jcamins Sure.
20:09 jcamins Oh, sorry. Advanced search.
20:09 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10309 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, Needs Signoff , New OPAC theme based on Bootstrap
20:09 oleonard jcamins: Can you add comments to Bug 10309 please?
20:09 rangi jcamins: what page is that?
20:08 jcamins oleonard: and the "Additional content types for books/printed materials" is jogged downwards.
20:08 rangi i hate both ideas
20:08 rangi both
20:08 mtompset rangi: Is your parenthetical (or one where speakers are paid) what you meant by paid kohacon, and you didn't mean paid as in registration fee?
20:07 rangi when i get to work
20:07 rangi but i will check it is totally up to date
20:07 rangi i see that too, overlapping a few pixels
20:06 jcamins The search dropdown box on the main page is on top of the go button.
20:06 oleonard Thanks wahanui
20:06 rangi with wizzyrea
20:06 wahanui hmmm... bad news is that you're probably royally screwed
20:06 jcamins oleonard: bad news...
20:06 rangi should be, its cronned to update from oleonard's branch, but ill check
20:05 jcamins Is that up to date?
20:05 rangi without even needing to have a koha install
20:05 cait :)
20:05 rangi there
20:05 rangi http://responsive.mykoha.co.nz/
20:05 rangi people can test
20:04 rangi handily
20:04 oleonard any amount of feedback is welcome, since I have received little!
20:03 rangi yeah, but i could start and note anything
20:01 oleonard It is no small thing I ask. Lots to test.
20:00 * rangi will try at lunchtime
20:00 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10309 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, Needs Signoff , New OPAC theme based on Bootstrap
20:00 oleonard Bug 10309
19:59 oleonard Nope
19:59 * cait will not read back.
19:59 rangi heya oleonard, has your bug been signed off?
19:59 cait some people seem to misunderstand that free software free conference concept...
19:59 oleonard Hi rangi
19:58 rangi :)
19:57 drojf or be part of it in any way
19:57 drojf i don't think i want to read that
19:57 jcamins That's what I was getting at when I said I thought a paid Kohacon would lose core developers.
19:57 cait hm not sure I want to
19:56 rangi just even
19:56 rangi oh, kist reading scroll back
19:56 cait huh?
19:55 rangi just my opinion
19:55 rangi fwiw id boycott a paid kohacon (or one where speakers are paid)
19:53 wahanui it has been said that koha-create is part of the package :)
19:53 jcamins koha-create
19:52 * magnuse calls it a day and a half
19:52 magnuse koha-create also creates passwords
19:52 magnuse depends on which passwords we are talking about
19:44 mtompset 16? AddMember_Opac only does 10.

19:12 magnuse lol
19:12 drojf :P
19:12 drojf well kind of works, i watched it in the end
19:12 magnuse hehe
19:11 drojf i love how i watch something for the first time that has 33 million views on youtube. my filter bubble works :P
19:11 jcamins I said it had become a true cultural meme.
19:11 jcamins Who said anything about better?
19:11 drojf the fox clips did not make it better though
19:11 jcamins Bwahahahahahaha!!!!
19:10 drojf jcamins magnuse no i meant the "official" fox video. i had seen the link here but not tried it yet
19:10 * mtompset cheers for oleonard!
19:07 jcamins drojf: clips from all of Fox channel's TV shows cut together to sync them against "What does the fox say?"?
19:06 magnuse drojf: not sure i want to know? ;-)
19:06 drojf what the fox did i just watch?
19:05 magnuse ooh, jenkins has wall displays?
19:04 magnuse ah, fox channel? heh!
19:03 jcamins It is being used to mock low-quality American TV channels.
19:03 jcamins magnuse: here we go. http://waltzy.tumblr.com/post/61511139957/the-fox-new-fox-promo-x
19:02 magnuse oh here is "the fox" played by a huge american marching band: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzETQCYW3GY
19:02 jcamins magnuse: still looking.
19:01 magnuse be there or i will rickroll you with "what does the fox say"
19:00 cait yay!
19:00 magnuse be there or be square!
18:59 magnuse oh by the way: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/2013-09-23_Global_bug_squashing_day
18:59 cait magnuse++
18:59 jcamins Let me find it.
18:59 magnuse jcamins: how can you tell?
18:59 drojf magnuse: you mean "get the hell away from me with that thing!!!" ?
18:59 magnuse moahahaha
18:59 jcamins magnuse: oh, speaking of which, What does the fox say? has made it to the level of major Internet meme.
18:59 * magnuse declines the offer in the nicest way he can think of
18:58 * drojf takes the dried cod and offers a flu
18:58 wahanui https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jofNR_WkoCE
18:58 magnuse what does the fox say?
18:58 magnuse what does the fox say to that?
18:58 mtompset No, no, druthb. "Blame Canada!" (http://youtu.be/bOR38552MJA)
18:58 * magnuse takes the rye bread and offers dried cod (stockfish)
18:57 * jcamins takes the cookies, and offers rye bread.
18:57 magnuse yay!
18:57 * druthb takes the blame, and offers cookies.
18:57 * magnuse blames druthb
18:57 * druthb blames jcamins.
18:56 mtompset Oh. Well, I didn't know someone tried. :(
18:56 mtompset Greetings, druthb.
18:56 jcamins mtompset: no one can seem to change it.
18:56 mtompset I think the QA Sprint Day topic should be changed by now. Though, I suppose QA folks never stop running. *cheers for QA folks*
18:56 druthb hi, mtompset
18:55 mtompset Greetings, #koha.
18:51 magnuse how?
18:50 cait :(
18:50 cait yep
18:47 magnuse cait: you broke the packages?
18:44 * magnuse wishes there was a way to put the alpha subfields before the numerical ones
18:44 drojf jcamins: i would if i had more time :)
18:43 jcamins drojf: you're interested in privacy and security. You should know these things.
18:43 jcamins drojf: I meant new salt, not new hash.
18:43 drojf jcamins: you must confuse me with somebody who knows a lot about crypto :)
18:42 * cait apologizes for breaking the packages
18:41 magnuse :-)
18:41 druthb thanks, drojf n magnuse. Raychel and I are kinda amped about it.
18:41 jcamins drojf: I have a question for you. When using bcrypt for hashing passwords, do you want to use the same hash on every run or is it reasonable to generate a new hash each session?
18:40 magnuse yeah, huge congrats to druthb!
18:40 drojf druthb: congratulations :)
18:40 druthb :D
18:40 wahanui Well, she finally snapped, like we all knew she would.

18:21 tcohen heh: bug 10905
18:21 tcohen i *might* have taken you literally
18:11 jcamins "Author tracings incorrect when UseAuthoritiesForTracings is turned on"
18:11 tcohen not sure, how would you describe the problem in a bug jcamins?
18:11 jcamins I wonder how the quotation marks got there.
18:10 jcamins Odd.
18:10 tcohen context of the question would be UseAuthoritesForTracings
18:10 huginn` 04Bug 9563: normal, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, NEW , Author links don't generate correct search query url for UseAuthoritesForTracings

18:09 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8917 new feature, P5 - low, ---, chris, Pushed to Master , Track clicks to links external to Koha
18:09 magnuse ...as in bug 8917
18:09 tcohen similar bugs talk about "tracing links"
18:09 tcohen its trivial, just need to know how to descrie the problem
18:08 tcohen http://bmayor.biblio.unc.edu.ar/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=3608
18:08 tcohen i've just found a bug with XSLT links to authorities
18:08 jcamins tcohen: do you have more context? Now I'm unsure.
18:08 jcamins magnuse: ooh, it could be a typo for "tracking."
18:07 * magnuse is unsure of the meaning of tracing in that context too
18:06 magnuse tcohen++
18:06 * tcohen is learning english, sorry #koha
18:06 tcohen ok, the action of tracing is following those links
18:06 magnuse unless it is a typo for "tracking links"?
18:05 jcamins The links to see other books with the same subjects.
18:05 tcohen tracing == browsing?
18:05 jcamins I think.
18:04 jcamins subject tracings.
18:04 tcohen what does "tracing links" stand for? (like in "the tracing links produced in the OPAC fail in XSLT mode")
18:03 magnuse jcamins: lol
18:03 tcohen kf
18:03 kf bye all
18:02 jcamins ^^ there we go
18:02 jcamins I was inspired to make rye bread, and opened that book.
18:02 jcamins Well...
18:02 jcamins I made rye bread inspired by that book.
18:02 jcamins Well...
18:02 jcamins I just made rye bread out of that book.
17:58 magnuse hehe
17:58 jcamins I haven't actually read through the entire thing. I just looked up a recipe, threw a bunch of ingredients into a pail, and called it a success. :)
17:57 magnuse maybe i should prioritize baking now that things are calming down a bit
17:57 magnuse the last 3-4 weeks have been intensely busy
17:57 magnuse well, other books got in the way
17:57 jcamins It's so easy!
17:56 jcamins Aww.
17:56 magnuse and i kind of took a break from reading the "artisan bread in 5 minutes" book
17:56 magnuse nope, it's been a loong time since last time i did
17:55 jcamins magnuse: are you baking bread?
17:55 magnuse not bad, not bad at all

16:31 slef I've done that, except no kids.
16:31 slef hehehehe
16:31 jcamins Well- probably he could. But visiting your wife's hometown and leaving her with the kids seems cruel.
16:30 jcamins And he can't leave.
16:30 slef http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/User:M._Tompsett
16:29 rambutan ah, ok
16:29 jcamins Canada.
16:29 slef I hate how we're divide-and-conquered.
16:29 rambutan OK, I'm confused. Where is mtompset physically present at the moment?
16:29 slef ow
16:28 jcamins slef: she can't leave the country until it's been established.
16:26 slef I wonder what Canadian Citizenship has to do with it
16:26 slef ttfn...
16:25 mtompset slef++ # thank you. :)
16:25 mtompset Have a great day, #koha.
16:25 mtompset And depending on how quickly my wife gets her Canadian Citizenship, maybe I could be there. :)
16:24 mtompset Philippines 2015, perhaps? :)
16:23 mtompset But thank you for some more insights and thoughts on this. I am really hoping my colleague is able to assemble something.
16:23 mtompset Well, it's lunch, and I promised to take my family out for lunch, so I better go.
16:23 rambutan ah, oh, ok
16:22 * mtompset chuckles.
16:22 slef rambutan: I would think that Linus is another big mouth ;)
16:22 rambutan I would think that Linus gets paid for speaking? :)
16:22 slef well it depends... we paid the singer
16:21 jcamins slef: granted, I dislike speaking, but I'd be less likely to speak if I were getting paid an insulting amount- the fee provides no benefit to me, but is taking away from potentially doing something useful.
16:21 mtompset you're probably right. The idea that Koha is FOSS is a little contradictory to expecting payment for speaking. :)
16:21 slef rambutan: true, we did that ;)
16:20 rambutan what is customary where I've done presentations is to waive conference attendance fees for speakers/presenters
16:20 slef not sure that's true in my case ;) but I had something to say
16:20 jcamins Core developers, rather.
16:19 mtompset -- with the knowledge that speaking is good PR. :)
16:19 jcamins I feel like if you paid speakers you'd lose all the core speakers.
16:19 slef mtompset: for free.
16:19 jcamins Free.
16:19 slef mtompset: easier, yes, but then you start to exclude people, like the smaller charity and soc.ent. libraries that have been the backbone of koha in England.
16:18 rambutan I doubt that any modest attendance fees could cover a reasonably number of speaker fees if they're charging customary rates
16:17 mtompset Did the speakers speak for free or for some kind of honorarium?
16:17 mtompset slef: Wouldn't it be easier to just have a paid ticket option period?
16:16 rambutan yep, understand that too
16:16 slef rambutan: it's worse than that. Some libraries are charitable and cannot donate to non-charity projects.
16:15 rambutan but we understand (again, tnx to Sirsi) conference attendance fees
16:15 slef mtompset: I'd suggest calling the paid tickets "regular" or similar, maybe with "premium" and calling the free tickets "lite". I don't think I would specify what the difference is (if any).
16:15 rambutan No sense of altruism when dealing with tax dollars
16:15 rambutan The problem with donations is that some libraries, like ours probably, would simply adopt the attitude that "why pay for something that's free?"
16:14 slef Librarians can buy paid conference tickets, but can't sponsor things.
16:14 mtompset how would a paid ticket option work vs. a free ticket option?
16:14 rambutan say $100 USD or something to cover the costs of snacks, et al
16:14 mtompset So, involving the community would include asking for assistance on the mailing lists?
16:14 slef Yeah, that was one strong feedback... there should be a paid ticket option, as well as the free tickets.
16:13 rambutan <unsolicited opinion>We used to pay big dollars for the Sirsi Superconference. I think the community should consider a nominal charge for Kohacon attendance
16:13 slef Try to avoid paypal if you can. If you must use them, get the money out as fast as you can and don't let them have debit access to your bank account.
16:12 slef I'm trying to remember who did what... I was a bit overloaded
16:11 slef 6 with 2 super-substitutes.
16:11 slef I think if you're running it as a single-track conference, you really want a core team of at least 6, ideally with 2 staying near the venue >1 week ahead.
16:10 slef jcamins++
16:10 mtompset I know my Filipino colleague is dreaming of potentially hosting.
16:10 jcamins Involve the community.
16:10 mtompset So, any other related advice on creating a proposal and hosting?
16:09 slef by email as our meeting times didn't work for them
16:09 slef mtompset: I think rangi Brooke and rafael did a few each
16:08 slef mtompset: aha, review board was kf thd-away jcamins and me
16:07 slef [off] actually that's more info than I should give. Sorry.
16:06 slef oleonard: bosses refused to fund, late.
16:06 * oleonard hopes they had a good reason
16:06 slef mtompset: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/KohaCon12_Volunteers may be more useful
16:06 slef oleonard: yes
16:05 oleonard slef: You had someone fail to show up to give the talk they signed up to do?
16:05 slef and encouraged 2 sets of 2 where the speakers were from the same institutions to merge (which didn't matter in at least one case where they didn't show up)
16:04 slef I think we turned down maybe 2 or 3 talks
16:04 slef we had a review board
16:04 slef kf wrote that
16:04 wahanui i think http://koha-community.org/kohacon12/call-papers/ is posted, please get submitting if it works for you!
16:04 slef http://koha-community.org/kohacon12/call-papers/
16:04 mtompset The hosts approve the speakers (which is generally everyone)?
16:03 jcamins I think this translates to almost everyone who wants to speaking.
16:03 jcamins Whoever volunteers and has their talk approved gets to speak.
16:03 slef What about them?
16:02 mtompset Okay, that's sponsorship, but what about speakers?

15:55 slef we raised the funds by emailing lots of people and inviting donations on the conference pages

15:54 mtompset Seeing as you were involved in hosting one, I thought you'd be able to give some good ideas. :)
15:54 jcamins The people staying in the rooms pay for them, and the rest is donated.
15:54 mtompset Most of the proposals tend to have no registration fee, so who pays for rooms, who pays for halls, who pays everything, and how are those funds raised?
15:53 mtompset Okay...

14:48 jcamins kivilahtio: just warn and nerves of steel.
14:48 kivilahtio I haven't looked at integrating a debugger to Koha yet
14:47 kivilahtio speaking of code. Are you using some proper debuggers for your work? Like Eclipse?
14:41 mtompset C4::Context::set_userenv vs. C4::Context->set_userenv vs. $obj=C4::Context->new; $obj->set_userenv
14:41 Joubu s/did/didn't
14:41 Joubu (Except the bad c/p) Here I did want a call like $obj->all. only Class::all is allowed
14:41 Joubu + if ref $class and UNIVERSAL::can($class,'can');
14:41 Joubu + die "BAD CALL: Don't use fetch_all_values as a static method"

14:39 Joubu mtompset: first patch from bug 10855
14:39 Joubu mtompset: not sure to understand what you want (did not follow the discussion). But if it is about static vs class method, I got the same problem short time ago
14:35 mtompset try to treat C4::Context as an object.
14:35 mtompset well, three ways...
14:34 jcamins Actually, better way to figure this out: add a new method to C4::Context and use Data::Dumper to inspect the results when you call it the two different ways.
14:33 jcamins Which means that you actually want to check for... ?
14:33 jcamins C4::Context isn't actually object-oriented. It's called as C4::Context-> rather than $context->.
14:32 mtompset my $self = shift if (<check>);
14:32 jcamins Except that's not what you want to do, is it?
14:31 mtompset check for an object. :P
14:31 mtompset Yes, which is why I changed my question to how to change for an object. :P
14:31 kf tcohen: hm tanslate.koha-community.org is quite slow - all translators busy?
14:29 jcamins The sentence you just said includes the answer to your question.
14:28 jcamins Yes! That is *exactly* what you need to do.
14:27 mtompset You need to check if the first parameter is an object.
14:27 jcamins s/"\?/?"/
14:27 mtompset right, which is why "shift" is not the best answer.
14:26 jcamins I have no objection to keeping it working when called incorrectly, but you still need to think about your approach, and answer the question "is there a way to do this that will not result in obtuse code"?
14:26 mtompset You don't break what is working.
14:25 mtompset So, checking if you should shift, keep code that was working still working, even though it should be fixed.
14:24 mtompset functions takes ::, have two calls :: and ->. One is broken. function takes ->, other one is now broken.
14:24 jcamins Half the calls are currently wrong. Half are write.
14:23 mtompset No, it would have worked (because it was wrong before), but now is broken (because it is right now)
14:23 jcamins Then it's still broken.
14:22 mtompset What if you miss fixing a reference?
14:22 jcamins I think maybe you need to take a step back and figure out what you're trying to do.
14:22 jcamins Why?
14:22 mtompset That's just plain wrong.
14:22 mtompset Let's put it this way... I saw some code that just added a shift.
14:21 jcamins I think you need to rethink what you're trying to do.
14:21 mtompset :: vs -> check.
14:20 jcamins What are you trying to do?
14:20 mtompset something the wrong way... :P -- best way to check for an object?
14:20 jcamins mtompset: what are you trying to do?
14:19 mtompset You can't push back to @_ what you have shift'd off, right?
14:16 kivilahtio mtompset: :)
14:16 jcamins kivilahtio: I meant "game." :P
14:16 kivilahtio jcamins: hardware support for more "exotic" sound cards for ex
14:16 mtompset Let's not call windows-use a lifestyle. :P
14:15 kivilahtio I don't like the thing one bit but I don't see an alternative for my current lifestyle
14:15 * jcamins isn't quite sure of what this thing of which you speak is.
14:15 kivilahtio Quite frankly I find Win7 to be an excellent entertainment platform. I have it back home after getting bored to the lack of availability of Linux games.
14:14 mtompset Some people don't have time to figure out how to configure Wine either.
14:13 druthb I would throw Windows overboard, but there are a couple of games I have that just *won't* run in Wine.
14:12 jcamins druthb: yeah... fastest way to get an Ubuntu or Mint CD!
14:09 druthb win7 is *way* better than Vista. Turn off the desktop gadgetry, and install Chrome, and you almost have a decent machine.
14:01 mtompset There is a time and place for everything: even Windows 7. :P
13:56 kivilahtio drojf: ++
13:56 jcamins Every time I have to boot one, a part of me dies.
13:56 mtompset I sometimes run many VMs. That was the point of the memory.
13:56 jcamins And Windows Server 2012.
13:55 jcamins I have VMs of Windows XP, Windows 7, and Windows 8.
13:55 drojf friends don't let friends surf the web with win7 :P
13:55 kivilahtio mtompset: you are using win7... I heard Win7 is good for... well... surfing the net ;) But 32GB RAM is pretty nice :D how do you spend it all?
13:50 * mtompset cries about the pains our QA and production server have because the virtualization technology is so archaic.
13:47 mtompset Though, if you want to hear about virtualization problems... vserver. Enough said.
13:45 mtompset Well, if we are playing the "let's compare testing environments" game. I virtualize Koha under Ubuntu with 2GB RAM, 32GB Drive space using VirtualBox on a 32GB RAM Windows 7 Ultimate Box running an i7-3770. :P
13:44 drojf yay! magic :)
13:44 jcamins drojf: if you check out the tag, it has the files.
13:42 drojf when i get 3.12.04 from git and build a package, does it come with the right translation files or do i have to download and update them manually?
13:38 kivilahtio but I'll file it
13:37 kivilahtio I mean this is really insignificant issue for us. I just tested this news thing with some old war-time speeches.
13:37 oleonard I can confirm in master
13:36 jcamins kivilahtio: yeah, 02/00/0 is the "uh-oh there is no valid date."
13:35 kivilahtio O-ou, looks like trouble
13:35 kivilahtio mysql database value is "opac_news.timestamp = 0000-00-00 00:00:00"
13:35 jcamins kivilahtio: yes.
13:35 jcamins That works.
13:35 mtompset "Incorrect calling conventions accessing C4::Context"?
13:32 kivilahtio btw setting the "creation_date" in "news -> edit/create" displays 02/00/0 when I set the date to 08/11/1940, should I file a bug?
13:32 mtompset Something more vulgar was coming to my mind. :)
13:31 jcamins "Incorrect calling convention"
13:31 mtompset jcamins: That -> vs :: thing I mentioned last night, what would you call it? I'm going to file a bug report.
13:30 tcohen i mean, it works
13:30 tcohen i test the 3.12.x branch using VirtualBox on a Core2Duo with 4GB RAM
13:29 kivilahtio tcohen: But luckily our obstacles are smaller
13:29 kivilahtio tcohen: I can imagine that. I am no sysadmin either
13:28 tcohen there are really a lot of little tricks to keep in mind so everything works flawlessly
13:27 tcohen and are moving to OpenStack+KVM flawlessly
13:27 tcohen we use Xen on a 200+ virtual servers infrastructure
13:26 kivilahtio sounds incredible to me, and I guess they were doing something wrong. Hence our own hardware
13:26 kivilahtio virtual guests failing to stop. No way to reboot other than reinstall
13:25 kivilahtio no such issues on our own virtualized hardware
13:25 kivilahtio jcamins: those issues were most likely network-related
13:25 jcamins That surprises me. I thought that ESI used Xen.
13:24 kivilahtio like ballistic bombastic fantastic. Tho we used the service provided by our IT-support company, so no idea really what they did and on what hardware
13:24 kivilahtio tcohen: we had INSANE issues with Xen + Evergreen
13:24 tcohen either KVM or Xen are mature
13:24 kivilahtio tho there is not much non-native with KVM either, when you configure proper drivers
13:23 kivilahtio native access to eth0 make the difference
13:23 kivilahtio jcamins: sounds like a good idea.
13:20 jcamins What I ended up doing with LXC was proxying with nginx.
13:20 kivilahtio I was looking into LXC but then decided to take the easy, and presumably more reliable way out, KVM
13:20 * druthb waves her arm around, flashing her engagement ring
13:19 jcamins Sorry. ;)
13:19 jcamins kivilahtio: the two aren't mutually exclusive. I'm not really a sysadmin.
13:19 kivilahtio jcamins: I am happy to hear it is no because of my incompetence :)
13:19 jcamins VirtualBox, KVM, LXC.
13:19 jcamins Though, having said that, I have had problems with port forwarding with every single virtualization technology I have tried.
13:19 mtompset You forgot to flash the ring, druthb. :P
13:18 * druthb bounces into the room, and flops into her beanbag chair.
13:18 kivilahtio jcamins: yup, it's pretty fast
13:17 jcamins mtompset: KVM doesn't emulate the CPU.
13:16 mtompset I can virtualize Masters of Orion II in VirtualBox or DosBox. There is definitely a speed issue based on how I virutalize. :)
13:15 kivilahtio wow! iotop is kewl, how come I never knew this existed
13:15 mtompset (and others)
13:15 mtompset I/O bottlenecks are not limited to disk, but networking, your VM environment.
13:15 tcohen try iotop on a lock scenario
13:14 kivilahtio it propably is networking related
13:14 kivilahtio :)
13:14 mtompset Oops... with tcohen and jcamins.
13:14 * mtompset nods in agreement.
13:14 kivilahtio tcohen: on SSD?
13:14 tcohen probably an I/O bottleneck kivilahtio
13:13 kivilahtio jcamins: roger that
13:13 jcamins The fact that everything stops responding after a glitch and there is nothing in the Apache logs tells me that you need to look outside Koha for the problem.
13:13 kivilahtio mtompset: but the virtio network drivers are unoptimized. I think that might be the issue. I'll try to migrate on our real production cluster.
13:13 mtompset But behind the scenes, if I watched the processes, I could see it was still working.
13:12 mtompset It would generally work, but take forever, and sometimes have timeouts.
13:12 mtompset I've virtualized Koha in a 512MB environment, and it is truly painful.
13:12 kivilahtio running on SSD :D
13:12 kivilahtio 2x 3.8 GHz core
13:12 mtompset Okay, that isn't the issue. :)
13:11 kivilahtio 4GB
13:11 kivilahtio mtompset: we have had some issues with Evergreen in virtual containers, but the problem has vanished. Possibly related to our virtual framework... hmm
13:11 mtompset How much memory did you give your VM?
13:11 kivilahtio but we will be running things in virtual containers
13:10 kivilahtio I know
13:10 mtompset Yes, but you can actually install directly to Mint.
13:10 kivilahtio mtompset: secure testing environment, easier performance monitoring
13:09 kivilahtio mtompset: For the encapsulation benefits virtualization provides
13:09 mtompset kivilahtio: Why are you virtualizing Ubuntu on Mint?
13:09 kivilahtio Koha ports forwarded and accessing from a remote network
13:09 kivilahtio running Ubuntu 12.04 JeOS virtual server on linuxmint libvirt KVM virtual host
13:09 jcamins That sounds like a network issue.
13:08 jcamins kivilahtio: unlike Evergreen, Koha doesn't actually have any server state if you're using a "normal" installation.
13:08 kivilahtio no apache errors in log
13:08 mtompset Sounds proxy-ish in nature to me, but I don't know.
13:07 kivilahtio WHat happens that makes Koha resume operations after a error scenario?
13:07 kivilahtio uncertain if OPAC is hindered o that changes are committed to DB
13:07 kivilahtio is this maybe apache2 related?
13:06 mtompset kivilahtio: So, what is your question? Again, I don't promise anything.
13:06 kivilahtio In some occasions I am working with some part of Koha, first time it was with "serials", now it was with "news". I make an action, like save a subscription or save a edited news article. I expect Koha to save my changes, but actually Koha stops responding, and then the browser says "This webpage is not available" for ANY Koha page. After few minutes the problem disappears and Koha continues to perate normally.
13:06 drojf much worse if i would have started installing it
13:05 drojf jcamins: true, could have been worse :D
13:05 * mtompset laughs, "I've made the same kind of mistake before, drojf."
13:05 jcamins drojf: that's okay, it took zero seconds to download.
13:05 drojf ah, that was the wrong .deb. damn you, 'koha' not 'koha-common'!
13:05 mtompset kivilahtio: You can ask anything, but there's no guarantee anyone in the channel at any given time knows the answer. :)
13:04 tcohen it was buffered
13:04 kivilahtio can I ask a question about Koha error recovery?
13:04 drojf i think that is a lie
13:04 drojf 25042 bytes sent in 0.00 secs (15198.9 kB/s)
13:03 mtompset Greetings, tcohen. :)
13:03 tcohen hi mtompset
13:02 mtompset Greetings, #koha.
13:02 jcamins No one really maintains them so far as I am aware.
13:00 drojf i thought so, that is why i asked :P
13:00 tcohen and they are certaintly outdated
12:59 tcohen not me :-D
12:59 drojf who is maintainer of the "debian" instructions?
12:57 tcohen drojf: yes
12:57 drojf are they?
12:57 tcohen and as long as those are maintained...
12:57 drojf lol
12:57 tcohen i belive we need to think of the target people for those instructions
12:56 * oleonard flies off again
12:56 oleonard And everyone should like the things I like.
12:56 * oleonard flies back
12:56 * oleonard flies off
12:56 oleonard Opinionator away!
12:53 oleonard Koha already has a problem of too many installation guides. If the package installation guides are different only in their verbosity I would think they should not be labeled as specific to different distros
12:47 kivilahtio hi tcohen!
12:47 drojf hi tcohen
12:47 tcohen morning #koha
12:47 tcohen they *should* be quite similar
12:47 drojf oleonard: the debian version has the option to install mysql on the same server as opposed to using an external database, which makes sense i think
12:46 tcohen drojf: the ubuntu instructions are qa-ed on 12.04
12:43 kivilahtio drojf: nevermind that :)
12:42 drojf ?
12:42 drojf maybe it would make sense to label them both package instructions then without any hint to a distribution
12:40 kivilahtio drojf: You could say "I hit the ground running"
12:39 kivilahtio drojf: I can say the packages worked for me using the Ubuntu-guide
12:39 drojf so maybe i made an on-the-fly ubuntu version out of it ;)
12:38 drojf i used the debian instructions in installation workshops with people that never used linux (at least some of them). i explained a lot about every step though
12:37 oleonard ...while the Debian instructions say things like, "Oh, and you might want to install mysql or whatever."
12:37 oleonard I think that's right. I followed the Ubuntu package installation instructions while installing on Debian and found everything to work.
12:35 drojf oleonard: my impression is that the debian instructions are all commands you need for the installation if you have any idea of a debian-based system, ubuntu instructions are kind of a really verbose version of that. but i have not looked at the ubuntu instructions in a while
12:34 drojf i just learned you can't checkout a tag that git does not know about because you should rebase once in a while. who would have thought of that. ;)
12:31 oleonard However, I came away wondering why the Debian and Ubuntu package installation instructions are different.
12:30 oleonard I finally had an opportunity to install Koha from the packages, and I'm sold.
12:19 oleonard Hi #koha
11:56 drojf i'll also need to apply less patches manually i think
11:55 drojf nice. 3.12 it is :)
11:55 magnuse drojf: wizzyrea got inspired, i think :-) pretty nice, eh?
11:55 magnuse my customers have been using 3.12.x since 3.12.1 without any complaints (but then they are only using core functions, like circ and cataloguing)
11:54 drojf hi magnuse
11:54 magnuse moin drojf
11:45 drojf woah, what happened to the website? :)
11:42 drojf any problems in 3.12 that should keep me from upgrading?
11:39 drojf hi #koha
09:22 dcook When I say process, I mean a handful of steps
09:22 dcook If you get stumped, people are here to help :)
09:21 dcook Works on Wheezy too
09:21 dcook http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_3.x_on_Debian_Squeeze
09:21 dcook The packages have their own install process, but it's heaps easier
09:19 paxed so, you all are suggesting there's no need to follow the install process at all, and go with the packages + gitify instead?
09:15 paxed wrong window and tab
09:15 paxed oops. sorry.
09:15 paxed magnuse: yes
09:11 rangi theres even a package built from master about 4 hours ago
09:11 kf but i will as soon as i get a free minute :)
09:11 kf still have to try out gitify
09:11 rangi but yep, gitify switches to running from git, but you get the benefit of all the package scripts
09:11 dcook I think my last one was 30 minutes because I got sidetracked by food
09:10 dcook I think wizzyrea did a Debian package install in 20 minutes the other day
09:10 magnuse http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Building_Debian_Packages_-_The_Easy_Way
09:10 kf also that yep
09:10 rangi and you do patches against master, not a released version
09:09 kf we roll our own packages now as some others do
09:09 dcook ^^
09:09 kf and you would not use your production installation for that :)
09:09 dcook Your "kohaclone"
09:09 dcook It allows you to have a package instance pointing at a git repository
09:09 dcook paxed: That's what gitify is for
09:09 paxed uh-huh. and when/if we'll start using koha, and i'd need to develop something to/for it, i'm sure you'll appreciate me doing patches against a released version.
09:08 dcook Although I don't think gitify takes into account Zebra differences
09:08 dcook Well said, rangi.
09:08 dcook hehe
09:07 magnuse lol
09:07 rangi i mean i could go out and hunt my own food, but i prefer to buy it packaged
09:07 kf yeah, that's the easiest
09:07 kf there are different ways to install koha for different things
09:07 rangi id still do it with packages, then gitify it
09:07 kf yes, you first have to determine what you want to do
09:06 magnuse well, INSTALL.debian should be the one to use then
09:05 paxed any of the INSTALL files. piecing things together, as every one of them seems to have slightly different instructions. git master. debian
09:01 wahanui it has been said that packages is at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian
09:01 kf packages?
09:01 kf and did someone point you to packages?
09:01 kf paxed: which Install files? whch version? which OS? :)
09:00 paxed by following the INSTALL* files. getting 403 when i go to localhost:8080
08:59 kf without more information we can't help
08:58 kf how did you try to install it?
08:56 paxed looks like koha beats me. i can't even successfully install it.

08:03 rangi im covering this in my talk at kohacone
08:03 dcook hehe
08:03 * gaetan_B puts his fingers in his ears and starts singing loudly
08:03 gaetan_B :D
08:03 gaetan_B rangi: oh my god don't even talk to me about rda
08:03 cjh go jenkins go
08:02 jenkins_koha Starting build #351 for job Koha_3.8.x (previous build: SUCCESS)
08:02 rangi gaetan_B: instead of throwing more money down a hole with RDA, why not do something actually useful for people who use a library
08:02 gaetan_B it's ok magnuse, its existence is still reassuring :)
08:02 rangi gaetan_B: exactly
08:01 magnuse lost_and_unfound: yay!
08:01 magnuse gaetan_B: thanks, but marc-must-die.info has been very inactive for a long time now...
08:01 gaetan_B when i saw it i thought really hard "how nice it would be if we didn't have to spend time thinking of ways of doing interesting things like clustering with our data, instead of pulling our hair out thinking of ways marking marc work"
08:01 lost_and_unfound magnuse, thanks, I ran a rebuild_nozebra.pl and it appears to have fixed the issue
08:00 dcook gaetan_B: That was my first thought too. Similar timing.
08:00 magnuse rangi: do you think you will get your marc2rdf into 3.14?
08:00 dcook It's encouragement ;)
08:00 magnuse hm, might be wise to save the ++ for when i have actually done it :-)
08:00 gaetan_B rangi: ah at first i thought it had to do with the reading app called oyster
07:59 dcook magnuse++
07:59 rangi awesome
07:59 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10788 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, magnus, NEW , Add a Linked Data/RDF browser to the OPAC
07:59 * magnuse hopes to submit a patch for bug 10788 this week
07:59 cjh hahaha
07:58 rangi if you hit it again, you see the code we can use to escape our MARC prison
07:58 rangi :)
07:58 rangi hit the right arrow once
07:58 rangi gaetan_B: http://slid.es/ranginui/oyster
07:58 gaetan_B rangi: what slide ?
07:57 gaetan_B when i saw the link
07:57 dcook magnuse: Mmm, that's why is sounded familiar
07:57 gaetan_B and crying
07:57 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10726 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, sonia.lemaire, Needs Signoff , Default Unimarc framework in accordance with new edition of the Unimarc manual
07:57 gaetan_B i was looking at bug 10726
07:57 gaetan_B rangi: hmmm no
07:57 paxed dcook: a part in INSTALL-file.
07:57 rangi gaetan_B: have you seen my slide?
07:57 gaetan_B :D
07:57 gaetan_B pretty awesome !
07:57 gaetan_B magnuse: just discovered your marc must die website !
07:57 magnuse dcook: it's the OPACBaseURL syspref
07:56 dcook paxed: I don't do much multilingual stuff myself, so I don't have a ready answer for you there. What's "1.2 optional foreign lang install"?
07:56 magnuse dcook: some syspref, let me find it...
07:55 paxed also the 1.2 optional foreign lang install won't work as-is.
07:54 dcook It could be that someone forgot to add it
07:54 paxed why is the "Listen 8080" missing from INSTALL?
07:52 dcook I think I've wondered the same thing before
07:52 dcook magnuse: What's that description attached to?
07:51 dcook Hmm
07:50 magnuse "This must be filled in correctly for RSS, unAPI, and search plugins to work" - what on earth are "search plugins"?
07:49 magnuse easy to forget
07:49 paxed blah
07:49 paxed hm. i was sure i did that, but that must've been one of the previous VMs ...
07:49 magnuse or reload
07:49 dcook Followed by a restart, I believe
07:49 magnuse e.g. /etc/apache2/ports.conf or something like that
07:49 dcook ^^
07:48 magnuse paxed: did you add "Listen 8080" to the apache config?
07:47 paxed magnuse: no, i never got that far - no idea why localhost:8080 doesn't answer.
07:47 magnuse lost_and_unfound: probably the biblio and biblioitems tables, at least (just guessing, though)
07:36 lost_and_unfound With NoZebra enabled, what table/field in MySQL is used when doing a search? (koha 3.0.0)
07:30 kivilahtio gitification sounds epic
07:30 * dcook is a big fan of gitify
07:30 kivilahtio rangi: ok, paxed will be happy to read these after he returns from lunch
07:30 magnuse hehe
07:29 * dcook swears that was coincidental timing
07:29 wahanui somebody said gitify was at https://github.com/mkfifo/koha-gitify
07:29 magnuse gitify?
07:29 dcook https://github.com/mkfifo/koha-gitify
07:29 rangi there is even a script that will gitify a package installation for you
07:29 kivilahtio rangi: dev install indeed
07:29 * rangi assumed you were talking about a dev install
07:29 * magnuse used to do that, but stopped doing it a while ago
07:28 rangi so dont do that
07:28 magnuse ah, never mind me, listen to rangi instead
07:28 rangi course running git on a production server is mental
07:28 wahanui kivilahtio: huh?
07:28 kivilahtio wahanui: so true
07:28 magnuse or at least run your live install off the packages and use a git/dev install for development/testing
07:28 rangi to point to your git checkout instead
07:28 rangi then just change your koha-conf.xml and corresponding apache conf
07:27 wahanui i heard koha-create was part of the package :)
07:27 rangi koha-create
07:27 magnuse kivilahtio, paxed: install on debian and use the packages
07:27 rangi yup install with packages
07:27 kivilahtio rangi: now that awesome
07:27 kivilahtio rangi: relly?
07:27 rangi you can still do that with packages
07:27 kivilahtio dcook: paxed wanted to vecause he is hard-core. I think it has to do with git and making code commits possible?
07:26 * dcook is wondering why kivilahtio and paxed are installing from source and not Deb packages
07:25 kivilahtio BTW paxed is our head programmer here in Joensuu, Finland. And to our amazement installing Koha from source is a BIT difficult. Contradicting installation instructions don't help either.
07:25 lost_and_unfound when a koha deployment works with 'NoZebra' and you do a keyword or title search in the web interface, which MySQL table/field does it preform the search on?
07:21 magnuse paxed: that is part of the web based installer - did you get that far?
07:09 paxed i'm guessing the install process is supposed to create the db schema at some point. koha no worky for me, because for some reason it didn't...
06:57 reiveune hello
06:51 gaetan_B hello
06:39 lost_and_unfound http://img545.imageshack.us/img545/9662/g4z8.png
06:39 lost_and_unfound thanks very much for the help cait
06:38 cait bbl
06:38 cait have to go
06:35 lost_and_unfound I will run the framework test and see what is the results
06:33 cait it's been deprecated for ages now and has been removed since
06:33 cait nozebra might be a bit of a blind spot for most people here
06:33 lost_and_unfound I am trying to find a pattern... I have done 3 word searches. 1.) law [valid], 2.)lawsa [error], 3.) notavalidsearch [invalid]. only using the "lawsa" word generates the error, the "law" and "notavalidsearch" word return data and no data respectively
06:31 cait it could show you some more obvious problems
06:30 magnuse ...in 3.0.x
06:30 cait you could try running the bibliographic framework test that is under administration
06:30 magnuse there is a rebuild_nozebra.pl script
06:30 cait for example a misconfiguratoin in the marc frameworks
06:30 cait your problem can also have other sources i think
06:29 cait good morning magnuse
06:29 cait but i have never used such an installation
06:29 wahanui okay, cait.
06:29 cait i think there is also a script to rebuild with using nozebra
06:29 * magnuse waves
06:28 lost_and_unfound so yesterday I also did a mysqlcheck on the tables and found some tables needed to be repaired, I have also completed that
06:28 cait that would be my guess
06:28 cait so nozebra was used - which will use the mysql database for searching
06:28 cait installing zebra with 3.0 and multiple instances (not quite a standard setup) might have proven to hard
06:26 cait and it explains the missing setup for zebra
06:26 cait it looks like it
06:24 lost_and_unfound so let me see if I understand this correct. In the 'About' section it shows that the zebra utility is availble ( http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/3516/6oci.png ), however in the settings, the zebra is not used. So even if I do a rebuild it will have no effect on the current issue.
06:20 lost_and_unfound seemed to have found something
06:20 lost_and_unfound ok... http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/5001/bxl0.png
06:17 cait you can use the search on top, look for nozebra
06:17 cait that or Admin
06:17 cait i think it should be in search maybe
06:17 cait those are only the local use ones
06:16 lost_and_unfound cait, http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/8670/5gvi.png
06:14 lost_and_unfound looking to see what I can find
06:12 cait it's not something that should be switched after installation, because needs setup, but would be intersting to see what it's set to
06:12 cait it's in administration system preferences.... search for zebra
06:11 cait in 3.0 there was still a nozebra option
06:11 * lost_and_unfound is all ears
06:11 cait that's something you could check i guess
06:11 cait oh
06:11 cait if it's 3.0 it could be running without zebra even
06:11 lost_and_unfound this is one of those "a guy work on in and left the company 3 years ago, no one touched it until now"-scenarios
06:11 cait yeah, i have no idea about that :(
06:10 cait he even changed the staff css it looks like :)
06:10 lost_and_unfound ok, but in the paste i mention that the zebra log files are old (thing 2008) and I do not see a zebra instance running, just the port 9999
06:10 cait do you know who set your Koha up?
06:09 cait andfor each the environment variables are a bit different - because pointing to the conf file
06:09 cait you can't run it for all of them at once I don't think - there should be separated indexes
06:09 cait you will want to make sure you run the rebuild for the right instance
06:09 lost_and_unfound ^^ all the db's running
06:08 lost_and_unfound http://pastie.org/private/dqbrk73yffie8knwxhowbq
06:08 cait i am not a system administrator
06:08 cait i am not sure what advice to give you
06:07 lost_and_unfound differnt MySQL db for each instance
06:07 lost_and_unfound from from port 8080 to 8090
06:07 lost_and_unfound yip
06:07 lost_and_unfound cait, this whole setup is interesting
06:07 cait are there really running multiple kohas on that machine?
06:06 cait hm your etc/koha is interesting
06:06 lost_and_unfound sorry for the repeat
06:06 lost_and_unfound I did, but i was AFK and my chat history does not go back that far :/
06:05 cait lost_and_unfound: you already asked that yesterday i think ;)
06:03 lost_and_unfound I know that version 3.0.0 is ancient, however, I am trying to understand the setup of koha. Can I just run the zebra rebuilding without any implications / side effects: http://pastie.org/private/gusyfgrtpx8rndhwyspuqg#
06:01 lost_and_unfound greetings all
04:09 eythian http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-media/product-gallery/B004XXMUCQ/ref=cm_ciu_pdp_images_0?ie=UTF8&index=0
04:04 mtompset Have a great day, #koha.
04:04 * mtompset goes poof.
03:57 mtompset However, it was a lovely time at the writing a test ball. :)
03:57 mtompset I may turn into a pumpkin.
03:56 mtompset Hmmm... nearing midnight.
03:54 jcamins And it has nothing to do with Koha.
03:53 jcamins However, I figured out the problem. Sort of.
03:53 jcamins We use prove.
03:53 mtompset test harness in a makefile?
03:52 huginn` mtompset: Quote #63: "<jwagner> But no one expects the Spammish Inquisition!" (added by jdavidb at 01:50 PM, March 01, 2010)
03:52 mtompset @quote random
03:51 jcamins And then there are the unit tests that all pass, except for when you use the test harness in the makefile.
03:51 mtompset Out of context quotes are the best for random quoting. :)
03:50 eythian well yes, though at least you have a handy tool that tells you how much dumb you have left to fix :)
03:50 huginn` mtompset: The operation succeeded. Quote #278 added.
03:50 mtompset @quote add "jcamins: ... OMGOMGOMG MUST FIX ALL THE THINGS."
03:49 jcamins eythian: on the other hand, more iterations of "gosh, that was dumb. Better fix it" Unlike the other way, where it's just one big "OMGOMGOMG MUST FIX ALL THE THINGS."
03:49 eythian whereas if you write the tests after, you end up refactoring code to be testable which produces a better design, but is omething you should have done up-front.
03:48 eythian Writing the test is faster than the debugging, leads to code structured in a way that lends itself to being diagnosed in small units, and fewer iterations of "have I fixed it yet?"
03:48 jcamins The larger the development, the more dramatic the difference.
03:48 jcamins Fastest development is always test first.
03:48 mtompset Sadly, I have.
03:48 jcamins mtompset: I have never found that to be the case.
03:47 mtompset eythian: It is slower. Writing the test takes as much time as the debugging, which wouldn't go any faster if the test was written first. Writing the specification first, then the tests, then the code only serves to find the flaw in the specifications, which revises the tests and then the code, and the cycle may repeat multiple times.
03:43 eythian then you need to come up with the detail yourself. Which, at the level of code, you probably should be doing anyway.
03:43 mtompset sometimes the specification is a sentence from the user with so much running space. :)
03:43 dcook Feels a bit late for that now though
03:43 dcook Yeah, that's the thought in the back of my mind...
03:43 dcook hehe
03:43 eythian dcook: then you haven't properly specified it :)
03:42 eythian it feels a lot slower, but you actually end up saving a lot of time.
03:42 dcook But you don't know how your code is going to evolve over time
03:42 dcook Yeah, I like that idea in theory
03:42 mtompset eythian: sometimes it's more fun to code on the fly.
03:42 eythian write the test first, and then write the code to stop it failing.
03:41 dcook Yeah, I wrote a test a while ago and now I figure I'll just wait until I'm done before revising that test..
03:41 mtompset I'll stop trying to add functionality. That will make writing the tests easier. :P
03:39 eythian that's OK, the next one will only take half a day :D
03:37 mtompset There. It took all day, but I have a test written. YAY!
03:15 eythian hmm, might just be our version that has these issues. Probably needs a cleanup.
03:12 eythian there are _far_ too many warnings coming out of Auth.pm
02:56 eythian also, new packages from master published
02:56 * eythian uses power for good
02:56 rangi :)
02:56 eythian there we go, now it's passed QA :)
02:51 rangi that did it
02:51 rangi +use C4::Auth;
02:51 rangi 995f4b6ecb504e1648816b0841e90efb814f25c7
02:50 rangi and it found me the bad commit
02:50 * rangi plays with git bisect run prove -l t/ILSDI_Services.t
02:46 rangi yep
02:46 eythian like, remove the connection details from C4::Context or something, so that things will fail no matter if there's a db there or not.
02:45 eythian I was thinking we should have the 00-load.t test behave like there's no connection, it'd catch a lot of the cases anyway.
02:44 rangi fwiw i test by switching off mysql
02:42 rangi i fixed it by mocking the dbh call
02:42 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10897 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, Needs Signoff , t/ILSDI_Services.t is db dependent
02:42 rangi bug 10897
02:42 eythian what's the bug number, I'll roll it in
02:42 eythian oh, handy :)
02:42 rangi i just fixed that
02:41 eythian do people not test this properly?
02:41 eythian ...
02:41 eythian DBI connect('dbname=koha;host=localhost;port=3306','kohaadmin',...) failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) at /tmp/buildd/koha-3.13/blib/PERL_MODULE_DIR/C4/Context.pm line 810
02:41 eythian arg master packages can't build due to test failure
02:30 eythian well, you could fix the test as an additional patch to your bug if it's needed. I don't imagine anyone would complain about that.
02:30 dcook Whoa...permissions have changed a lot in master..
02:29 mtompset bad as in quality, not in functionality.
02:29 dcook A bad test makes me think the test doesn't work :p
02:28 dcook So a suboptimal test
02:28 mtompset Using the :: instead of the ->
02:28 dcook A bad test?
02:28 dcook One Bug to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
02:28 dcook One Bug to rule them all, One Bug to find them,
02:28 mtompset *sigh* I just want my test for the patch to work on the current master, so I guess a bad test it is. :(
02:27 eythian one bug to cover them all is probably sufficient.
02:25 mtompset So a bug report for each function/method of C4::Context that isn't called like an object?
02:23 * mtompset nods.
02:22 rangi ideally you would have a method to get the version to
02:21 mtompset Though, not in the purest object form sense. :)
02:20 rangi kinda
02:20 mtompset I suppose C4::Context::KOHAVERSION is a variable, so :: makes sense?
02:19 mtompset set_shelves_userenv
02:18 mtompset but looking at the content of Auth.pm -- Should there be any C4::Context::<blah>'s at all?
02:14 rangi C4/Auth.pm and installer/InstallAuth.pm
02:14 rangi luckily its only in 2 files (and the tests)
02:13 mtompset Oh mercy!
02:13 rangi so yeah it needs to be fixed
02:12 rangi C4/Auth.pm:1497: C4::Context->set_userenv( "$borrowernumber", $userid, $cardnumber
02:12 rangi C4/Auth.pm:645: C4::Context::set_userenv(
02:12 rangi its even worse
02:10 rangi and having a hlaf object .pm is kinda mental
02:10 rangi there are more using -> than ::
02:09 rangi InstallAuth and Auth.pm
02:09 rangi there are are precisely 2
02:09 jcamins Yeah, but you have to do that regardless.
02:09 mtompset But you would also have to go looking for C4::Context(::|->)set_userenv calls.
02:08 rangi id file a bug to fix C4::Context
02:07 mtompset rangi++ # thank you for noticing. :)
02:07 rangi the pod needs to be fixed too
02:07 mtompset jcamins++ # thank you for checking.
02:06 mtompset Yes.
02:06 jcamins rangi: yeah, C4::Context fails to handle the first argument.
02:05 rangi that line?
02:05 rangi C4::Context->set_userenv ( @USERENV );
02:04 jcamins Confirmed.
02:03 mtompset Could someone else confirm this: t/db_dependent/Members.t Line 50... the -> should be a ::
02:01 mtompset What madness that was!
02:01 mtompset Good Lord! I found a bug in a test that I was using to create my own.
01:49 * eythian bids three hundred quatloos for the newcomers.
01:46 tweetbot_ [off] @oleonard: "A hundred quatloos to the one who signs off on my new #KohaILS OPAC theme."
01:23 mtompset I mean patron.
01:23 mtompset Faking a dummy member should be easy.
01:22 mtompset I can't seem to get it quite right.
01:22 * mtompset grumbles about the pains of writing a test.
00:22 dcook Good guess
00:22 jcamins There may have been, but that's my guess.
00:21 dcook So no real purpose aside from that?
00:21 dcook I suppose items.booksellerid is still a misnoner but at least it's a medium text field..
00:20 dcook jcamins++
00:20 dcook Thanks jcamins :)
00:19 dcook That's interesting how it sort of maps across
00:18 dcook That makes more sense :)
00:18 dcook Ahhh
00:17 huginn` jcamins: [Described in full under field 876 in the MARC 21 Concise Format for Holdings Data.] (Repeatable) []
00:17 jcamins @marc 876
00:17 jcamins 876.
00:17 jcamins I don't have holdings bookmarked.
00:17 jcamins Sorry, that's not the one I was thinking of.
00:16 dcook Wouldn't the source of acquisition be the source of acquisition and not its holding location?
00:16 dcook Especially as a "booksellerid" unless that's a DB name that's a holdover from something else
00:16 dcook Still don't see how that would fit into the 852
00:16 dcook O_o
00:14 huginn` jcamins: Identifies the organization holding the item or from which it is available. May also contain detailed information about how to locate the item in a collection. (Repeatable) [a,b,c,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,p,q,s,t,u,x,z,2,3,6,8]
00:14 jcamins @marc 852
00:13 dcook 852?
00:13 jcamins For mapping 852.
00:12 dcook I suppose there might be value in knowing the source of acquisition for an item...but it doesn't appear that it really display anywhere in Koha.
00:12 dcook Anyone have any idea why 952$e "source of acquisition" exists?
