07:38 alex_                 Bonjour
07:44 Annelisterman[m]      ashimema: Ok. It makes automatically a claim to a missing bundle item. That explains it.
07:57 cait1                 good morning #koha

11:33 oleonard              Hi all
11:33 TriveniChandriki[m]   Hi all
11:34 TriveniChandriki[m]   Batch item modification is not working in GitHub. Please fix the issue
11:36 oleonard              In GitHub? What does that mean?
11:37 tcohen                hola #koha o/
11:38 ashimema              morning tcohen
11:39 TriveniChandriki[m]   oleonard: https://github.com/Koha-Community/Koha
11:40 TriveniChandriki[m]   Git installation doing. 21.05 working fine. After 21.11 koha  batch items modification not working
11:40 oleonard              In what way?
11:41 TriveniChandriki[m]   oleonard: Kohaclone
11:43 oleonard              TriveniChandriki[m]: I don't have any special understanding of your problem, I'm just asking clarifying questions in case that helps someone else understand
11:43 TriveniChandriki[m]   oleonard:
11:43 TriveniChandriki[m]   https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_ubuntu_-_tarball#Test_to_make_sure_the_SAX_Parser_is_setup_correctly
11:44 TriveniChandriki[m]   Koha-dev kohagit installation doing.
11:44 TriveniChandriki[m]   Background job not working
11:45 tcohen                TriveniChandriki[m]: you really need to provide more information
11:46 tcohen                and I recommend you install Koha using the DEbian packages instead
11:46 tcohen                for background jobs to run, you need to set the 'workers'
11:46 tcohen                so batch operations won't work until the workers are running
11:46 tcohen                The Debian packages set all the things for you

11:48 TriveniChandriki[m]   We are doing in single server multiple instances and multiple kohaclone. Because we do development every client.
11:49 ashimema              !DO NOT USE THESE INSTRUCTIONS ON A FORWARD BASIS!
11:49 mtj                   hi TriveniChandriki[m], if you are mixing koha versions - its expected that you *will* have problems with that setup
11:50 ashimema              right at the top of that wiki page you point to
11:50 TriveniChandriki[m]   Same version we are doing
11:50 ashimema              those instructions have not been updated since 2013!
11:51 TriveniChandriki[m]   ashimema: Ya . Searched lot in Google and koha community
11:52 oleonard              TriveniChandriki[m]: You seem to be rejecting a lot of good advice
11:52 ashimema              you're welcome to try, but a lot has changed since 2013 and the recommended approaches all involved packages to keep things as simple as possible for end users.. the community doesn't have the people to maintain and support everything.
11:52 mtj                   TriveniChandriki[m]: you probably have some cut/paste typo in your setup
11:53 ashimema              where is this development.. it's always good practice to try and contribute to the upstream project in open source..
11:53 ashimema              that way you don't have to keep maintaining your own customisation and then ask for help when they inevitably break
11:53 mtj                   TriveniChandriki[m]: remember that you have tested that problem is OK, on newer koha versions
11:54 TriveniChandriki[m]   mtj: Thanku so much ur help on fixing issue sip2.
11:54 mtj                   TriveniChandriki[m]: if you configure a working KTD koha - you can look at a working 'koha-gitify' system
11:55 mtj                   https://gitlab.com/koha-community/koha-testing-docker
11:55 TriveniChandriki[m]   I am trying this. Still facing issues
11:57 TriveniChandriki[m]   Please help on this issue. Kindly requesting all
12:06 mtj                   TriveniChandriki[m]: ^^ tcohen mantioned that you might be missing 'worker' jobs for your koha instance
12:07 TriveniChandriki[m]   How to do this any steps
12:10 mtj                   $ KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/sites/dev1/koha-conf.xml PERL5LIB=/kohadevbox/koha  \
12:10 mtj                   perl  /kohadevbox/koha/misc/background_jobs_worker.pl  --queue long_tasks
12:15 TriveniChandriki[m]   ok i will try
12:19 mtj                   if you created a koha instance with 'koha-create', the worker jobs should be created corrected
12:21 pastebot              "mtj" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "worker jobs" (21 lines) at https://paste.koha-community.org/2002
12:21 mtj                   TriveniChandriki[m]:  ^^
12:22 mtj                   /usr/bin/perl /kohadevbox/koha/misc/background_jobs_worker.pl --queue default
12:22 mtj                   /usr/bin/perl /kohadevbox/koha/misc/background_jobs_worker.pl --queue long_tasks
12:23 mtj                   hmm, you should have 2 worker jobs, per instance
12:27 TriveniChandriki[m]   export KOHA_CONF=/home/mapsystems/koha-devnew/etc/koha-conf.xml
12:27 TriveniChandriki[m]   export PERL5LIB=/home/mapsystems/kohaclonenew:/home/mapsystems/kohaclonenew/lib
12:27 TriveniChandriki[m]   perl /home/mapsystems/kohaclonenew/misc/background_jobs_worker.pl --queue long_tasks
12:29 TriveniChandriki[m]   perl /home/mapsystems/kohaclonenew/misc/background_jobs_worker.pl --queue default
12:29 TriveniChandriki[m]   this one working
12:29 TriveniChandriki[m]   thanku so much everyone
12:39 TriveniChandriki[m]   <mtj> "Triveni Chandriki:  ^^" <- Great help sir. Thanku so much sir
12:41 mtj                   TriveniChandriki[m]: congrats 🐱
12:43 TriveniChandriki[m]   mtj: Big thanku to u and everyone.
12:43 TriveniChandriki[m]   Last one month i am trying to fix this issue .
13:08 magnuse__             oleonard around?
13:08 oleonard              Yes
13:08 magnuse__             oleonard: i was looking at bug 15640
13:08 huginn                04Bug https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15640 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, aleisha, CLOSED FIXED, Accessibility - ensure there are no titles on hover over the links (circ home page)
13:08 magnuse__             do you still think title attributes on links/buttons are a bad idea?
13:09 magnuse__             we have some rfps where that sort of thing is asked for quite specifically
13:10 oleonard              In that particular bug the original problem was some links had titles an some didn't. The solution was to remove the title attributes because they didn't contribute important additional information
13:11 magnuse               yeah, and i totally get that it only works for mice, not for touch etc
13:11 oleonard              Contrast that with a situation where the interface element is an icon, for instance, with no associated text.
13:12 oleonard              The title attribute can also be picked up by screen readers, so it has use beyond the mouse-hover case.
13:12 magnuse               ah, true
13:13 magnuse               so... are you saying it's more a question of we should do it everywhere or have some good guidelines on where to do it, not just sprinkle it around randomly?
13:14 oleonard              In my opinion you should not need a title attribute in most cases because the link/button text should be sufficiently self-explanatory.
13:15 magnuse               *nod*
13:15 oleonard              It is hard to keep all the accessibility advice straight, though!
13:15 magnuse               yeah, i know way too little about that area!
13:17 oleonard              I'd be happy to help with specific examples, but generally I'm just Googling recently-authored recommendations.
13:19 magnuse               no specific examples yet, just wanted to hear your thoughts :-)
14:30 cait1                 oleonard: i think what you said makes sense, if that helps :)
14:31 cait1                 always good to have a speaking button text and not to need a title too
14:56 emlam                 Morning everyone!
14:56 caroline              good morning!
14:59 oleonard              o/
15:11 cait1                 caroline: bug 33179
15:11 huginn                04Bug https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=33179 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , Allow for libraries to automatically suppress a bibliographic record from OPAC if no items are attached
15:11 cait1                 fits your recent question, I think
15:11 cait1                 hi emlam :)
15:11 caroline              kelly received my brainwave it seems XD
15:13 emlam                 hi cait! :)
15:14 thd                   Is this not the time of the developers' meeting scheduled to avoid international women's day?
15:15 thd                   https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Development_IRC_meeting_9_March_2023
15:16 thd                   Maybe no reminder was sent for the unusual non-Wednesday scheduling.
15:17 oleonard              i would appear so
15:17 oleonard              *It* would appear so.
15:17 oleonard              It's on the calendar and everything :D
15:43 cait1                 oh yes
15:43 cait1                 i had it on my calendar for 45 min ago too :(
15:43 cait1                 and I even did my homework for this one
15:44 cait1                 tuxayo: ?
16:44 cait1                 bye all :)
17:38 emlam                 Anyone know if the mail system for the koha wiki ever got fixed?
17:40 emlam                 asking because I've been at the "confirm your email address" stage of account creation for a while :'-)
17:46 oleonard              Sorry emlam I think at one time I had the right permission to help you but I don't seem to anymore
17:46 emlam                 alas
17:46 emlam                 thanks for trying!
17:52 davidnind             emlam: email for the Wiki has been working for a while now - I don't see your account in the queues for me to confirm your account
17:53 davidnind             emlam: I think your account is active (but I don't have enough permissions to confirm that), maybe try a password reset
17:53 emlam                 Hmmm...I've tried password reset, but haven't gotten an email from that either
17:55 emlam                 not even in spam folder
17:55 davidnind             maybe check your spam folder (your account was created on 22 October 2022)
17:56 davidnind             OK, I'll find out who can reset it for
17:56 oleonard              davidnind: Does it show what the account's email address is? Could that be the mistake?
17:56 davidnind             Just have to go out now, but will look at later this morning
17:56 emlam                 thank you!
17:56 emlam                 oleonard++ davidnind++
17:58 davidnind             emlam: userid is Emlam and email is emily.lamancusa AT montgomerycountymd.gov
18:02 emlam                 still nothing. I wonder if it's getting blocked by an organizational spam filter that's deleting it before it even makes it to my spam folder
18:02 emlam                 thanks for confirming that I'm inputting the right email address  at least!
18:03 ashimema              https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/User:Emlam
18:03 ashimema              It's that you?
18:04 emlam                 Yup!
18:07 ashimema              > Only one password reset email will be sent per valid account every 0 hours
18:07 ashimema              Interesting, that doesn't look right
18:08 ashimema              That's display when I just tried to reset for you
18:10 emlam                 That's what I see when I try to reset my password too. I was assuming that was the default "don't use this feature" value and the message just wasn't coded with that case in mind, but perhaps that was not a good assumption...
18:13 caroline              What do we think of the gif here? (bottom of the page) https://koha-community.org/manual/latest/en/html/cash_management.html#making-a-sale
18:13 ashimema              tcohen, do you know what $wgPasswordReminderResendTime is set to on our mediawiki
18:14 ashimema              Seems clear to me caroline
18:14 caroline              So we should continue to add gifs in the manual?
18:15 caroline              (I wanted to update it, but my gif maker doesn't work on ubuntu 22 anymore... it makes webm files
18:15 oleonard              caroline: As long as their size isn't bogging things down I think it's a good idea
18:16 caroline              I like animated gifs personally, sometimes it's clearer than just a picture
18:17 oleonard              Could we use webm? https://caniuse.com/?search=webm
18:17 caroline              not sure how it would translate since it's a video file and not an image
18:20 oleonard              yeah probably making it too complicated
18:33 * cait                waves
18:35 cait                  I think a lot of people still print, maybe we need to make sure it's accessible in multiple ways (having a good writen description too)
18:37 caroline              cait what would you change in the description in this case?
18:41 cait                  oh sorr,y I didn't look that closely
18:41 cait                  just mean we should not rely only on the picture in general or gif
18:42 caroline              ok, I was just editing this part so I would have changed the description if it wasn't clear
18:43 cait                  checked now - it's super clear :)
18:43 caroline              :)
19:33 thd                   ashimema: $wgPasswordReminderResendTime has not been included in Koha MediaWiki LocalSettings.php
19:34 thd                   ashimema: Consequently it must have some default value.
19:34 thd                   ashimema: Of course it could be added to LocalSettings.php
19:35 ashimema              I don't know whether it's needed
19:36 ashimema              Just felt odd to say 0 hours in the above message
19:38 thd                   If it has a function, it could be added and set to some useful value but maybe the default with no setting is fine.
19:41 caroline              What is the purpose of the "Nobody" permission in lists?
19:43 caroline              https://snipboard.io/7iK4gS.jpg
19:44 caroline              I never understood it
19:49 thd                   When everyone is someone no one is anyone.
19:50 caroline              reminds me of Who's on first
20:07 caroline              follow up on my xml parser problem again... I didn't manage to fix it BUT I did a batchRebuildItemsTable in another context and it fixed the invalid characters and now everything works!
20:08 caroline              the rebuild did cause a gazillion background jobs to be created though which was not cool...
20:14 fridolin              hello
20:15 caroline              no yellow today? Are you feeling ok?
20:37 fridolin              yeyyy
20:38 fridolin              caroline: I dont feel blue no worries :D
20:39 fridolin              I was hoping for a bot to reply
20:39 caroline              oh yeah, I think they are on vacation
20:40 fridolin              good for server load ;)
