13:38 MosesNew good evening sir
13:38 oleonard Hi MosesNew
13:40 MosesNew sir can i ask what is the meaning of this error .Error message from Zebra: 1011 . we still havent solve the issue last night because . we are just students so we are kinda poor in technical issues of Koha
13:41 oleonard Where did you see this error MosesNew?
13:46 MosesNew in the About Koha sir
13:48 oleonard https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Troubleshooting_Zebra
13:49 oleonard That page suggests you might have Koha configured with an incorrect Zebra username and password, but I'm not an expert in Zebra configuration so I'm not sure
13:59 MosesNew thank you sir :) i really appreciate your help. but we have another big problem . we dont have a server . we had troubles in hosting the sight so we just pick random guy to host our site but this guy uploaded 17.5 and not 16.5 that we give to him so we had some issues. so i dont know how to configure the koha because we are using winscp to manipulate the datas. so i dont know how to rebuild the zebra
14:02 oleonard MosesNew: I'm curious, did you pick a Koha support provider who is listed on koha-community.org? You don't have to answer that if you don't want to.
14:05 oleonard MosesNew: I think you don't have many options here... Either your Koha host gives you proper support (and/or ssh access to the server) or you look for another host.
14:06 MosesNew ok sir thank you . we will consider your suggestion . thank you again sir.
14:14 magnuse hiæ
14:14 magnuse hi
14:14 wahanui niihau, magnuse
14:15 magnuse wahanui: you're back
14:15 wahanui magnuse: i'm not following you...
14:16 oleonard You should follow me on twitter, wahanui
14:16 wahanui oleonard: huh?
14:23 MosesNew -Servers: undefined | Namespace: undefined | Status: unknown | Config read from: Nowhere Note that the right place to define the memcached config is in your $KOHA_CONF file. Currently you do not have a valid memcached configuration defined. | Effective caching method: Cache::Memory " can anyone know what this means ?
14:25 oleonard it means Koha isn't configured correctly to use Memcached, which is a caching system designed to improve Koha's performance.
14:28 eythian I think wahanui develops aphasia around apostrophies.
14:34 magnuse wahanui: you\'re back
14:34 wahanui magnuse: excuse me?
14:35 magnuse wahanui: youre back
14:35 wahanui magnuse: i'm not following you...
14:35 magnuse guess not
14:35 magnuse :-)
14:37 MosesNew sir what is the syntax again for indexing zebra ? for the error
14:38 eythian wahanui: welcome back
14:38 wahanui cait abducted me.
14:38 eythian ah
14:38 eythian that explains it
14:41 eythian wahanui: your back
14:41 wahanui What? Is there a post-it on it?
14:48 MosesNew how to know your koha instance
14:55 oleonard MosesNew: If you had ssh access to your server you could find out.
14:55 MosesNew is winscp ? ssh access ?
15:04 oleonard MosesNew: Command line, so you'd need ssh. https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Commands_provided_by_the_Debian_packages
15:05 MosesNew thank you sir . for the big help
16:00 TGoat good morning :D
16:11 pevk hey, I have uploaded certain pdf files in the staff client under the $856U tab and the files uploaded successfully, however, when I try to retrieve the files from the online catalogue using the search bar i get "no results found". Is there a particular way to search for these files?
16:21 oleonard Hi pianohacker
16:26 pevk hey can anyone help me with this doubt, I have uploaded certain pdf files in the staff client under the $856U tab and the files uploaded successfully, however, when I try to retrieve the files from the online catalogue using the search bar i get "no results found". Is there a particular way to search for these files?
16:32 oleonard pevk: It works in my library's catalog (if I understand you correctly), so I suspect it's a Zebra indexing issue.
16:32 oleonard https://search.myacpl.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=3CAEA1E1-0EB7-463C-8921-D3A4CBB37C1A
16:33 pevk what is zebra indexing sir?
16:33 pevk I am new to koha I am just learning
16:34 pevk I have just learned how to install, open the staff client, and use opac catalogue.
16:34 oleonard Zebra is the "search engine" which Koha uses to find results in your catalog. It must be configured to index certain MARC fields if you want them to be searchable.
16:34 pevk i'm new to ubuntu and tech so pardon me if my doubts seem small
16:35 oleonard pevk: Are you working with your own development installation?
16:35 MosesNew i deleted our db . wtf . im doom
16:35 pevk i installed from online
16:36 pevk i'm trying to build library for my school
16:37 pevk how do I configure to index MARC fields?
16:38 oleonard Sorry pevk I'm not an expert on that so I can't advise you.
16:38 pevk ok
16:41 talljoy .
16:42 talljoy pevk are you trying to do full text searching on the contents of the pdf document?
16:44 pevk can you tell me how to see the ip of koha?
16:48 MosesNew DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::catch {...} (): DBI Connection failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) at /usr/share/perl5/DBIx/Class/Storage/DBI.pm line 1492. at /usr/share/koha/lib/Koha/Database.pm line 100 Compilation failed in require at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/mainpage.pl line 31. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/mainpage.pl line 31.
16:48 MosesNew can any one help for this
16:50 oleonard MosesNew: If you have paid someone to hose Koha for you, they should be helping you with this.
16:50 oleonard host Koha, I mean.
16:50 oleonard Although they may have also hosed Koha for you ;)
16:50 oleonard (sorry, slang)
17:14 em_ can anyone tell me how to do the zebra indexing?
17:14 cait argh... ihave to run
17:14 cait could somene send a reminder for the docs meeting?
18:07 reiveune bye
19:00 rangi hey its nengard !!!
19:00 oleonard-away hey its rangi !!!
19:00 rangi heh
19:01 nengard rangi i'm here every day
19:02 oleonard rangi did y'all have a time change? Seems like you're here earlier lately
19:02 rangi ahh just must be when im asleep usually
19:02 rangi yeah daylight savings
19:06 rangi i think the answer to this is no, but does anyone know if there is a way in the staff interface to bulk change a part of a field
19:07 rangi eg http to https in all 856u for example
19:11 oleonard Since MARC modification templates don't support partial replace I'd say no rangi
19:13 rangi dang, thats what I thought
19:13 rangi ok fake it til we make it then, ill hack that in ;)(
19:18 oleonard wizzyrea, you were able to apply Bug 19532 without any trouble? Not working for me.
19:18 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=19532 enhancement, P3, ---, aleisha, Needs Signoff , Recalls for Koha
19:19 rangi she's not at her desk yet, but she'll read back im sure
19:23 rangi oleonard: i think its just a UX problem, cos we are doing a regex in the backend, we just have no way to enter it nicely (modification stuff)
19:24 oleonard UX problems are hopeless burn the whole thing down
19:24 rangi heh
19:26 magnuse o/
19:26 rangi hi magnuse
19:26 wahanui kamelåså
19:26 magnuse hehe kia ora rangi!
19:27 * magnuse upgrades all the prod servers
19:28 rangi heh
19:32 * magnuse was in Lund, Sweden yesterday
19:33 magnuse the university there is switching to Koha summer 2018
19:33 rangi ohh excellent :)
19:33 magnuse oldest uni in scandinavia, from 1667 or something
19:33 rangi very cool
19:34 magnuse oh 1666 akshuly - so 350 years http://www.lunduniversity.lu.se/lund-university-350-years
19:35 magnuse and they have been involved in librecat/catmandu
19:35 magnuse so they have like 6 perl programmers on staff...
19:36 rangi oooh very handy!
19:36 magnuse yup
19:37 rangi this whole marcmodification thing could be a lot more elegantly done with librecat actually
19:37 rangi (the code im looking at, at the moment)
19:37 magnuse patches welcome ;-)
19:49 rangi oleonard: turns out you can
19:49 rangi oleonard: you make a template
19:49 rangi with 2 rules
19:50 rangi the first one is copy and replace, which can take a regex
19:50 rangi then you delete the one you copied
19:50 rangi in the second rule
19:50 rangi so one template can swith http to https but not one rule, its a bit of a pain to set up, but once its done you can apply it in the batch modification
19:51 magnuse cool
19:58 magnuse rangi: document it on the wiki, if you have the time?
19:58 rangi will do
19:59 magnuse rangi++
20:04 rangi actually you can do it with one rule
20:05 rangi if you copy and replace to the same subfield, it works
20:06 rangi https://mit-admin.mykoha.co.nz/cgi-bin/koha/tools/marc_modification_templates.pl?template_id=2&op=select_template#modaction
20:07 rangi if you want to take a look
20:46 caroline Is this the place for the documentation meeting?

21:08 cait i am nto sre if the link is on the website yet
21:08 cait rangi? can we publish?
21:08 rangi publish what?
21:08 cait put the link to 17.11 on the website
21:08 cait it's in the release notes already
21:08 rangi yep
21:08 rangi you just need to ask whoever looks after the website to do that
21:09 rangi or if you have permissions go for it :)
21:09 cait cool
21:09 cait who can I #action for that? :)
21:10 * cait will wait until the silence is uncomfortable enough for someone

21:11 caboose #info caboose bywatersolutions Princeton (sorry for lateness0
21:11 cait we gave you karma anyway :)

21:11 cait great thx
21:12 cait next new thing
21:12 cait #info Joubu has made it so the manual contributors appear in the release notes
21:12 LeeJ yay credit!
21:12 cait #link https://koha-community.org/koha-17-11-released/ release notes
21:12 cait you can also see contributions made in the git repository or with the git stats
21:13 cait #link http://git.koha-community.org/stats/kohadocs/authors.html git stats for kohadocs
21:13 cait and a last thing
21:13 cait #info koha-docs was a moderated mailing list, I have access now and will hand over the login so it can be changed
21:13 cait that's why recently some rather old mails got through that had been stuck there
21:14 cait hm out of new htings, someone else?
21:14 LeeJ cait: we're continuing with RST for the format, yes?
21:14 cait we just switched to it... so I'd think so
21:14 LeeJ yay
21:14 caboose I'm new to the role so will probably need to get process stuff down
21:15 LeeJ because I love it
21:15 caboose but I love proces stuff
21:15 cait you got me worried there for a moment :)
21:15 LeeJ cait: I'm finally going to get around to it over Christmas break to create a "syntax/how to document" guide
21:15 cait moving on to the next topic then
21:15 cait #topic Workflows
21:15 edveal LeeJ++
21:15 edveal That is needed.
21:15 caboose @LeeJ++
21:15 huginn caboose: I've exhausted my database of quotes
21:16 caboose ha ha
21:16 hughr That would be great cait
21:16 LeeJ it is! I have one here at work for stuff we work on and it helps keep everything consistent
21:16 cait #link https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Editing_the_Koha_Manual
21:16 cait caboose: that shoudl be a good start i hope
21:16 cait for the more technical stuff, please get in touch with rangi
21:16 caboose sweet thanks cait I'll do some study
21:17 hughr As a newbie it's not super clear what the process is re new contributions to the docs being 'approved'
21:17 cait like how to update our git repository from the github one and how to create the manual
21:17 cait hughr: there is no big process yet
21:17 cait we merged the merge requests after proof reading
21:17 cait checking ti looks about right
21:18 LeeJ hughr: the basic steps are listed in the editing the manual wiki under "Easy - Editing with gitlab"
21:18 cait with a video from LeeJ even :)
21:18 * LeeJ bows
21:18 cait we were trying to make it as easy as possible
21:18 cait i hope it kinda worked out
21:18 hughr LeeJ: yep, that's a good doc, I haven't watch the vid yet :-)
21:18 LeeJ that's what happens when I'm bored..I get productive :)
21:19 cait ok to move on?
21:19 LeeJ if anyone has suggestions for other videos just let me know and I'll see what I can do
21:19 LeeJ cait: sure!
21:19 cait i think maybe steps on how to add images would be good
21:19 cait #idea add notes on how to add images
21:20 LeeJ cait: I'll have to actually try adding some myself before I create that video :)
21:20 cait ok, there are notes already
21:20 cait #idea rather: add video on how to add images
21:20 kellym-kohaircmeeting yes there are notes for adding images
21:20 kellym-kohaircmeeting video would be great!
21:20 edveal Where are we hosting the videos?
21:20 LeeJ edveal: I put the one posted there on my personal YouTube account
21:20 cait i don't think there is an official spot yet
21:21 kellym-kohaircmeeting are we worried about the consistency of the look of the images, or does that matter?
21:21 * LeeJ thinks perhaps a Koha Community YouTube channel
21:21 edveal +1
21:21 cait hm i think plain Koha would be good
21:21 caroline +1 on the YouTube channel
21:21 georgew +1
21:21 cait not customized
21:21 cait as it could cause confusion
21:22 kellym-kohaircmeeting cait: ok thanks
21:22 edveal I agree cait plain Koha for images
21:22 LeeJ agreed
21:23 m23 +1
21:23 cait should we count this as an informal vote?
21:23 LeeJ I think we should
21:23 edveal how formal is this meeting?
21:24 cait #agreed screenshots should be made from a 'plain' Koha with no customizations
21:24 edveal +1
21:24 cait i tihnk as formal as we have one for doucmentation :)
21:24 edveal :)
21:24 cait for unlocking the mailing ist - i will try to add the new docs team as managers and forward you the passwords
21:24 cait hopefully this week
21:25 cait #info cait will make the docs team moderators of the koha-docs mailing list and forward login information
21:25 edveal cait along with any information we will need for managing the list.
21:25 cait hm
21:25 cait #action cait to make the docs team moderators of the koha-docs mailing list and forward login information
21:25 cait i just got access too
21:25 cait not sure yet, but we had asked people to send things there and then i noticed it was set to moderated
21:26 cait i think someone will have to take a look at the configuration
21:26 cait moving on?
21:26 davidnind I can look at setting up an 'official' Koha Community YouTube channel - will take to general IRC meeting. Also, to make sure we load things into the Internet Archive as well.
21:26 cait i forgot to switch topic...
21:26 cait #topic Next steps
21:27 cait davidnind: that's awesome!
21:27 cait #action davidnind to look at setting up an 'official' Koha Community YouTube channel - will take to general IRC meeting. Also, to make sure we load things into the Internet Archive as well.
21:27 edveal davidnind great!
21:27 cait ok, anything we should add to next steps?
21:27 BobB cait I want to edit the To Do list (framapad). Do I need an account there?
21:27 LeeJ davidnind: keep me in the loop...I can give you the MP4 of my docs video I have up to migrate it to there
21:27 cait no
21:27 cait you can just start typing
21:28 BobB i can see how to donate but not how to log in
21:28 cait that was the idea of it mostly
21:28 cait to make it even easier than the wiki
21:28 BobB ah, cool
21:28 cait if you want you can pick a color and put your name on it
21:28 davidnind LeeJ: will do!
21:28 LeeJ davidnind++
21:29 edveal davidnind can you keep me in the loop as well?
21:29 cait #info the to-do list in framapad can be edited without a login, if you want, put your name and your color on top
21:29 cait anything else?
21:30 BobB that works :)
21:30 LeeJ cait: nothing I can think of
21:30 cait ok, so time to take over new docs team
21:30 cait #topic Set date and time of next meeting
21:30 cait #chair caboose LeeJ edveal
21:30 huginn Current chairs: LeeJ caboose cait edveal
21:31 * LeeJ feels important
21:31 edveal Any suggestions?
21:31 wahanui Any suggestions are welcome.
21:32 edveal Late Dec. will be bad!
21:32 cait i aimed for once a month, but with holidays coming up maybe earlier?
21:32 BobB this day and time is good for AUS/NZ, not sure for others
21:32 georgew 4 weeks from now will be christmas - i'd prefer a week or so before or a week or so after
21:32 LeeJ hmm..I think it would be fine having a meeting once a month? I don't think we really need to meet more frequently than that
21:32 edveal Agreed
21:32 m23 +1
21:33 edveal So before or after Chrismas
21:33 LeeJ what about December 21st?
21:33 m23 I vote before
21:33 LeeJ the 21st would be 3 weeks from today
21:33 edveal I am happy with the 21st.
21:33 m23 Me too
21:33 cait ok for me
21:33 caboose works for me
21:33 hughr 21/22 is good
21:33 edveal So is that a vote?
21:34 caroline +1 for the 21st dec.
21:34 hughr same time?
21:34 wahanui same time is, like, good here
21:34 LeeJ is everyone good with 21 UTC?
21:34 edveal +1
21:34 davidnind +1
21:34 m23 afree wit 21 UTC
21:34 BobB +1
21:34 georgew +1
