00:02 dcook ebegin: I was born and raised in Saskatchewan, but I lived in Vancouver most recently for a few years before moving to Sydney, Australia
00:02 ebegin oh, saskatchewan, just read it
00:03 dcook I thought about moving to Montreal for my MLIS but Vancouver had the co-op program that got me my current job working on Koha
00:04 dcook Montreal would've been better for my French though ;)
00:06 dcook Ah, right, I was going to say, you provide services in both English and French, ebegin?
00:07 ebegin yes, both languages

00:58 eythian wahanui: liblime koha is <reply>I think you mean fauxha, $who
00:58 wahanui ...but liblime koha is based on an older version of Koha, but with a higher version number....
00:58 eythian no wahanui, liblime koha is <reply>I think you mean fauxha, $who
00:58 wahanui okay, eythian.

05:14 mtompset @later tell paul_p 6874 is ready for the final sign off. Hopefully I didn't miss anything. :)
05:14 huginn mtompset: The operation succeeded.
05:48 dcook I love librarians with good ideas
05:48 dcook Just sayin'
06:03 mtompset dcook: What good idea?
06:03 dcook Setting up an RSS feed for the lists
06:08 mtompset Okay... 4 things to attempt to finish before end of year. Maybe.
06:08 mtompset liblime?

07:39 reiveune hello
07:39 wahanui salut, reiveune
08:13 cait hi #koha
08:19 magnuse wb cait
08:20 gaetan_B hello
08:20 wahanui bonjour, gaetan_B

08:44 magnuse ...and so dark!
08:44 cait same here :(
09:03 magnuse hm... MARC::File::XML seems to dislike the Â§ (Section sign) character, e.g. in 500a. anyone got an idea for how to deal with that?
09:24 nlegrand Hey #koha o/
09:53 magnuse oh hooray for perl - 26 years today!
10:01 Binu hello
10:03 Binu hello with whom can I ask a query on MAR21 import in Koha? Any experts our there?
10:04 * Binu slaps BobB_ around a bit with a large fishbot
10:31 cait Binu: we don't slap around here - lots of poeple are constantly logged in, but BobB_ for example is in australia and it's really late for him
10:32 cait Binu: just ask your question, if someone knows they will answer
10:33 Binu so sorry for that. I was just checking the functionality.
10:35 cait np
10:36 Binu Ques : While importing MARC records into a blank Koha database, I want Koha to check if there are duplicate records in the MARC file that I am importing so that duplicate records are clubbed together to a particular bibliography.
10:38 Binu for clarity duplicate records mean - one title with mutiple barcodes( i.e. more than one copy)
10:40 cait sorry phone
10:42 Binu what phone? do u want me to call u?
10:43 nlegrand Binu: I guess cait has a phone call and is unable to answer you right now :)
10:44 nlegrand (and so am I, because I'm new to Koha ^^)
10:45 Binu ok thanks nlegrand
11:09 cait reading back
11:09 cait ah too late
11:18 cait hi khall :)
11:18 khall mornin cait!
11:20 cait :)
11:32 cait gmcharlt++
12:18 tcohen morning #koha
13:17 tcohen is jenkins around?
13:19 oleonard Hi #koha
13:51 tcohen @later tell jenkins_koha build Koha_3.12.x
13:51 huginn tcohen: The operation succeeded.
14:25 oleonard Just realized I dreamed about finding git merge conflict markers in a live site. Do I get a nerd merit badge for that?
14:32 cait hehe yes
14:59 rambutan hola koha
15:08 ebegin a quick perl question : What means a -s in a condition like : if (exists $ENV{"KOHA_CONF"} and $ENV{'KOHA_CONF'} and -s $ENV{"KOHA_CONF"}) {
15:09 jcamins ebegin: file has nonzero size: http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/-X.html
15:11 ebegin thanks jcamins
15:13 ashimema_away hi all
15:18 rambutan hi ashimema
15:19 cait hi ashimema
15:31 tcohen hi ashimema
15:48 ashimema still qa'ing your bug tcohen.. gave me a good reason to finally get to grips with building packages ;)
15:48 tcohen heh
15:48 ashimema shame I've gotta fit it in around work ;)
15:48 tcohen fortunately it is documented how to do it!
15:49 ashimema indeed..
15:49 ashimema Works nicely so far.. just bringing up a clean vm to install my freshly build package onto now..
16:00 cait ashimema++
16:06 oleonard opac-topissues.pl doesn't work at all the way I thought it did now that I look closely at the query it uses
16:07 oleonard "Top 50 of the most popular titles in the last 12 months" means most popular titles *added* in the last 12 months, not *circulated* in the last 12 months
16:07 cait huh??
16:07 jcamins oleonard: really? Eww.
16:07 cait can you paste the sql?
16:07 cait just curious
16:08 cait but today nothing should surprise me
16:08 cait today--
16:09 pastebot "oleonard" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "opac-topissues.pl query" (15 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/35
16:20 gmcharlt oleonard: wow, and it's been like that from the beginning, it seems
16:21 gmcharlt issues.issuedate would match what you're expecting rather than bibio.datecreated
16:23 gmcharlt though I could see somebody wanting to include datecreated if they want the emphasis to be on newer titles and their patrons are still reading nothing but Harry Potter ;)
16:46 oleonard I wonder if it would make sense to add an "any" option to sql report runtime parameters?

16:51 ashimema lol
16:51 ashimema I hadn't seen the karma command before :$
17:02 oleonard SQL Reports Library says "You have to put "%" in a text box to 'leave it blank'" Does that work?
17:15 oleonard As far as I can tell, if I want to use branch runtime parameters in an SQL report, I'll have to create a separate report to cover all branches.
17:22 cait ?
17:22 cait oleonard: maybe i am late, but what is the problem?
17:23 cait ah, ok, no i get it I think
17:23 cait now
17:23 cait oleonard: you could create an authorized value.... with your branchcodes, branches and % and use like... but that would be a bitof a stretch
17:47 nengard oleonard: what people do is create another authorized value list with all the branches in it and then add an 'all branches' with the value equal to %
17:47 nengard i thought i had a blog post about that - but can't find it
17:48 reiveune bye
17:48 oleonard So, what cait said :)
17:48 oleonard cait++
17:48 oleonard nengard++
17:48 nengard http://bywatersolutions.com/2012/05/23/branch-reporting-tip-in-koha-3-8/
17:48 oleonard I still think it would be a nice idea to build in a blank option when using runtime parameters
17:49 nengard i agree
17:49 nengard and i want!!!
17:49 nengard for item types, collection codes, etc etc etc
17:49 nengard an 'all' option would be great
17:51 cait hm we'd need to be abit careful, it will only work if you use like
17:51 cait and depending on how people did their codes that coudl have some unwanted effects
17:54 oleonard cait: If we're modifying how the query is built by the script we wouldn't necessarily be required to use 'like'
17:55 cait hm
17:55 * oleonard speculates
17:55 cait i think it's not trivial to do that
17:55 cait right now it's a placeholer
17:55 cait then it woudl have to change the logic
17:55 cait and remove the clause
18:05 oleonard Welcome rocio1! (http://bywatersolutions.com/2013/12/18/rocio-migrations-support/)
18:46 magnuse welcome rocio_lunch!
18:56 drojf i am wondering about hosting koha for clients. are there ways of virtualization that have proven particularly useful (or the opposite) to run koha on a root server?
18:58 magnuse drojf: are you considering a physical server?
18:58 magnuse i have only good things to say about linode
18:58 magnuse gah
18:58 * magnuse wanders off
18:58 cait i think better use a server in germany
18:58 drojf with the nsa stuffâ€¦ i suppose only german servers would work ^^
18:58 cait less trouble
18:59 drojf yep
18:59 gmcharlt drojf: we use Xen quite successfully
19:00 cait drojf: do you want to run a big server yourself? or rent something in a data center?
19:00 jcamins drojf: Xen works pretty well, especially if someone else will manage it for you.
19:00 drojf cait: rent. neither place nor bandwidth here i am afraid
19:01 cait i got worried for a moment :)
19:01 drojf gmcharlt jcamins: i'm not sure if that would work with a rented root server but i'll check
19:01 cait i have heard good things about hetzner
19:01 drojf that is who i am thinking about
19:01 jcamins drojf: oh, probably not. On an individual server level, I just use multiple Koha instances.
19:02 drojf cait. but the vps are pretty low spec so i guess it would make more sense to get a root server (and i could also use it for other fun things)
19:02 drojf low spec as in, they have only single cpu vps i think
19:02 jcamins I'd suggest testing Debian/kFreeBSD, since that would give you Debian + jails.
19:02 jcamins And pf.
19:03 * jcamins is not a fan of iptables.
19:04 jcamins lxc is really nice, but the root user in lxc might have full root privileges on the host system, which is not so good. In my opinion.
19:05 drojf jcamins: i have read about lxc and it did not sound safe. and seems to have extra problems on debian 7
19:05 drojf apart from that, it sounds very interesting
19:05 jcamins I use lxc for testing and development.
19:06 jcamins Much faster to do clean room package testing on an lxc container than on a separate VM.
19:12 drojf jcamins: yes i will have to play with it when i have more time. looks cool
19:12 jcamins You should just make the switch to Debian/kFreeBSD and play with jails.
19:12 drojf i was thinking about just using koha instances but i was not sure how that will work out if people want ssh access
19:13 * jcamins doesn't provide SSH access.
19:14 drojf i should probably neither
19:14 * jcamins doesn't want to support anyone who does things not through the Koha interface.
19:14 drojf good point ^^ i also do not feel like cleaning up after people with no idea but access :P
19:15 rambutan consider webmin access?
19:15 cait drojf: there is a way you can allow them to download their database anytime with packages
19:15 cait maybe a compromise?
19:16 drojf i have no idea if people would want access at all. i suppose that was my way of thinking. because i would want to have that :D
19:17 cait yeha, but you wouldn't go to a service provider ;)
19:17 jcamins drojf: my feeling is that if someone has a need for SSH access, they should run their own servers, and I will charge (higher) support fees accordingly.
19:19 jcamins Way higher chances of weirdness.
19:19 drojf good point. and i think those who actually asked me so far did so because they do not want to have to do any servery things. but i will have to bring that up if anything is going to happen with them at all
19:22 druthb Having (in my evil past) had customers who insisted on SSH access, I would start by *doubling* the support fee. Got to pay for the therapy you'll need when you see what they do to your poor innocent servers somehow.
19:23 druthb There is nothing good that can come of that. You can provide an SFTP location to download the tar-gzipped sql dumps, if they have a fetish about keeping a copy of their backups, but letting someone have shell access is just asking for a ticket to the loony bin.
19:26 druthb â€¦and I'd hate to have to come to Germany to visit you in an asylum, drojf!
19:27 drojf druthb: thanks for pointing that out :D
19:29 talljoy o/ druthb
19:31 cait drojf: she is serious
19:31 cait shemight actually be coming!
19:32 talljoy looks she may be on her way now.
19:32 druthb o/ talljoy
19:32 talljoy ah!
19:32 talljoy there she is!
19:32 druthb might-nothing. I *am* coming to Germany, in April.
19:32 cait hehe
19:32 * druthb hopes cait can pop over to see me!
19:34 * cait hopes too
19:38 talljoy Germany in April? mmmm......
19:38 * talljoy checks her calendar
19:38 talljoy cait i had an opportunity to join a group in Stuttgart in May. Is that near you? or not?
19:39 cait it is close by yes :)
19:39 cait i studied in stuttgart, about 3 hours of a train ride and BSZ has hm a branch? in stuttgart
19:40 cait :)
19:40 talljoy i haven't decided to go or not. It is with the Library School here and they are visiting an International School in Stuttgart to work in the library.
19:41 talljoy a Koha library no less!!
19:41 cait aaah
19:41 cait i know them :)
19:41 cait have been there for a day once
19:41 cait it was interesting
19:42 druthb talljoy, has mashing too many Follett data sets made you funny in the head? You have to *think* about whether to go to Germany?
19:42 talljoy ha!
19:42 jcamins germs?
19:42 wahanui it has been said that germs is http://i.imgur.com/5UfhT.jpg
19:42 jcamins germs?
19:42 wahanui Germs originated in Germany, before rapidly spreading throughout the rest of the world.
19:42 jcamins ^^ possible reason not to go to Germany. Who wants to get sick?
19:42 talljoy the librarian there is Betty. And I spent some time at an International School in Kiev with her.
19:42 * druthb gives jcamins the stink eye.
19:43 druthb hush, you
19:43 cait i think i have met her
19:43 talljoy okay, duty calls ... phone time.
19:43 cait talljoy: and germany won't make you sick
19:44 cait talljoy: you should totally go :)
19:45 talljoy i am going to look into getting on the bandwagon with it.
19:45 * druthb thinks cait oughta give jcamins the ebil eye, too.
19:51 cait druthb: he is just influenced by eythian
19:51 cait germs?
19:51 wahanui hmmm... germs is http://i.imgur.com/5UfhT.jpg
19:51 cait germs?
19:51 wahanui Germs originated in Germany, before rapidly spreading throughout the rest of the world.
19:51 cait druthb: not worth it ;)
19:51 druthb eythian is a bad influence, yes.
19:58 oleonard Bye #koha

21:36 rangi exactly
21:36 rangi 3.2 wasnt time based, ie thats over 2.5 years
21:37 rangi and 3.4 had a zillion tt commits
21:37 wizzyrea 3.6 was lovely and stable
21:37 rangi otherwise 1k a every 6 months .. is very impressive
21:37 rangi gonna do a nice 2013 summary gmcharlt ?
21:38 gmcharlt yeah
21:38 gmcharlt I'm in a number-crunching mood
21:38 rangi cool
21:38 jcamins I think 3.6 was a slightly shorter release cycle, too, since the release month was changed.
21:39 jcamins Or was that later?
21:39 rangi that was later, 3.8 was a longer one (or 3.10)
21:39 rambutan anybody installing koha on btrfs yet? any libraries have exabyte size data?
21:39 rangi one was 7 months
21:39 jcamins Ah, right.
21:39 jcamins We moved *back* not forward.

22:45 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8908 normal, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , Starman/Plack hangs when faced with zombie Zebra
22:45 jcamins Hmm.
22:45 jcamins I remember working on it.
22:46 * cait shudders at the thought of a zombie zebra
22:46 rangi any ideas would also be awesome
22:47 jcamins Let me see if I can figure out where the work is, because I know I spent time on it.
22:49 rangi cool thanks
22:56 rambutan creative subject line
23:00 dcook Oh ho...I think I might have an idea about this bug now..
23:01 jcamins rangi: looks like I never got very far.
23:01 rangi ahh bummer
23:02 rangi i was thinking of just trying to do a really simple thing, like change format or something
23:02 rangi to test the connection was still valid
23:02 rangi cos this
23:02 wahanui i heard cos this was publicly logged
23:02 rangi if ( defined($context->{"Zconn"}->{$server}) && (0 == $context->{"Zconn"}->{$server}->errcode()) )
23:02 jcamins I just have a bunch of debugging statements trying to track down where it hangs, but wasn't able to recreate the bug consistently enough to answer the question.
23:02 rangi isn't doing it
23:02 rangi *nod*
23:02 rangi k ill keep working on it
23:04 jcamins rangi: try $conn->check().
23:04 dcook ModSuggestion, you little devil..
23:04 rangi hmm does that actually exist?
23:04 jcamins Yeah.
23:05 jcamins Well, I think.
23:05 rangi just not documented?
23:05 rangi i can certainly try
23:05 jcamins It's in the POD.
23:05 jcamins http://search.cpan.org/~mirk/Net-Z3950-ZOOM/lib/ZOOM.pod#check()
23:06 rangi ah yep, we are acting asynchronously in this case
23:06 rangi cool ill give it a try
23:06 eythian rangi: you could kick the zebra server, that'd probably break the connection.
23:07 jcamins eythian: that didn't work for me.
23:07 jcamins I mean, it did work, and didn't trigger the bug.
23:07 eythian ah right
23:16 dcook Why would there be a foreign constraint error on the prod system but not the dev system when using the same code and the same data...
23:17 jcamins dcook: because your dev system had an extra upgrade.
23:17 dcook Mmm
23:17 dcook Hmm
23:18 dcook Possibly but I don't see why it would
23:18 jcamins When did you copy the data from production to dev?
23:18 dcook 15 minutes ago?
23:19 jcamins And you didn't go through the installer?
23:19 jcamins (for the upgrade)
23:20 gmcharlt are both prod and dev using innodb?
23:20 gmcharlt or did the dev system somehow end up using myisasm?
23:21 dcook Both should be innodb
23:22 dcook jcamins: The dev used to be higher but I did a restore with a lower DB
23:22 jcamins dcook: and you downgraded the code, too?
23:22 dcook Mind you, I think the restore only removed the tables and readded them. It didn't drop the database and start absolutely completely from scratch
23:22 dcook Downgraded the code?
23:22 jcamins Your code and database have to be in sync.
23:23 dcook Both systems are running the same code and (nearly) the same db
23:23 jcamins Okay.
23:24 dcook The prod system dies when it tries to send a letter to patron that doesn't exist anymore, whereas the dev system seems to just chug along
23:25 dcook foreign_key_checks are on in the global mysql variables as well so I'm surprised no error comes up
23:25 dcook Unless...
23:25 wahanui it has been said that unless is probably meant to give code that reads more like natural language? but i'm not a fan either
23:25 * dcook tries another thing
23:25 jcamins You are missing a table on the production system?
23:26 eythian dcook: you have a problem with the letter table
23:26 eythian I don't know what it is, but that table screws up a lot
23:26 eythian I think deleting everything before you load is the way to go
23:26 eythian I have a script to do that.
23:27 dcook It's the message_queue table (I should've mentioned that)
23:27 dcook It does have a foreign key pointing back to the borrowers table
23:28 eythian ah, I've seen weird things happen with the letter table.
23:29 dcook I'm wondering if the indexes aren't there...
23:30 gmcharlt dcook: could you paste the output of 'show create table message_queue;' from both dev and production?
23:30 jcamins dcook: I suggest getting the CREATE TABLE command for each table, and diffing them.
23:32 dcook Hmm, they're identical
23:33 jcamins Compare other tables.
23:33 * jcamins would compare all the tables.
23:33 pastebot "dcook" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "message_queue create" (43 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/37
23:33 jcamins mysqldump --no-data
23:36 gmcharlt dcook: another thing to check -- start a new mysql session, then do SELECT @@FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS;
23:37 dcook jcamins: Dev has a few more tables that didn't get dropped when I downgraded but I can't imagine them getting in the way
23:37 jcamins dcook: message_transport_type?
23:37 wahanui message_transport_type is, like, print. I would like email
23:38 dcook gmcharlt: Still says 1 :/
23:41 gmcharlt hmm
23:41 gmcharlt could you paste the exact error message?
23:41 dcook gmcharlt: Just about to :)
23:41 pastebot "dcook" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "error message" (2 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/39
23:43 dcook I'm going to drop the dev db and try this again
23:46 dcook Dang...still no error...
23:47 gmcharlt dcook: select count(*) from suggestions where suggestedby is not null and suggestedby not in (select borrowernumber from borrowers);
23:47 * gmcharlt would be willing to get that the order in question has a suggested where suggestedby = 0
23:47 dcook 4
23:47 gmcharlt or refers to a borrower that got deleted after making the suggestion
23:48 dcook I checked the suggestion earlier and it had a borrowernumber which had already been deleted from borrowers
23:48 dcook Yeah, the latter
23:49 dcook Hmm...
23:49 dcook No entry got made in the dev system
23:50 dcook I imagine that it returned a warning rather than an error and that warning isn't captured
23:51 dcook {'RaiseError' => $ENV{DEBUG}?1:0 })
23:51 dcook I bet the prod system has that environmental variable set and the dev system doesn't
23:51 dcook Which is interesting..
23:52 gmcharlt the apache log in prod would be quite verbose if it were set
23:53 dcook I've often thought it was rather verbose (although not always as much as I would like)
23:53 dcook Should find out in about 40 seconds
23:53 eythian it's far too verbose at the moment.
23:53 eythian mostly with meaningless warnings
23:53 dcook Yeah, the meaningless warnings suck, that's true
23:54 dcook Yep, that was it
23:54 dcook Set on prod but not on dev
23:55 dcook Apache config is the only thing that would've been different
23:55 eythian hmm. So if debug is not set, you get things failing mostly silently to the user? That's not ideal.
23:56 dcook eythian: Agreed
23:56 dcook I think I ran into this same thing elsewhere a few months ago
