hello owen. |
| 12:35 |
|
paul |
i've the answer to your question |
| 12:35 |
|
paul |
What's this new 'warndeparture' thing in circulation? |
| 12:36 |
|
owen |
Thanks, I couldn't tell if it was doing anything |
| 12:36 |
|
paul |
if the systempref is set, a message can appear on circulation desk if the user card will expire in less than {systempref} days |
| 12:36 |
|
paul |
s/can/will/ |
| 12:36 |
|
owen |
Ah, so I was missing the system pref |
| 12:37 |
|
paul |
update/updatedatabase is your friend |
| 12:38 |
|
owen |
I thought kados had done that |
| 13:03 |
|
paul |
owen has rebooted... |
| 13:03 |
|
owen |
And all is well again |
| 13:04 |

|
paul |

| 13:05 |
|
paul |
very early in the morning I bet |
| 13:05 |
|
chris |
apparently we had winds of 147kmph at our house in new zealand yesterday |
| 13:05 |
|
paul |
147kmph !!!! |
| 13:05 |
|
paul |
wow !!!! |
| 13:05 |
|
chris |

| 13:06 |
|
chris |

| 13:06 |
|
chris |
and i think innodb is just fine |
| 13:06 |
|
paul |
commited too in fact ;-) |
| 13:06 |
|
chris |
we get transactions, and foreign keys |
| 13:07 |
|
paul |
right. and it's mysql 4+, and nobody uses mySQL 3 nowadays. |
| 13:07 |
|
chris |
yep |
| 13:21 |
|
_hdl_ |
happy new year chris and owen |
| 13:21 |
|
owen |
Thanks hdl |
| 14:00 |
|
owen |
_hdl_, the new overdues script doesn't seem to be working for me |
| 14:01 |
|
_hdl_ |
What does it say ? |
| 14:01 |
|
owen |
It's not displaying any borrower categories, itemtypes, or branches |
| 14:01 |
|
owen |
I have the latest version of overdue.pl and the template |
| 14:01 |
|
paul |
own & hdl : could you check if bureau.paulpoulain.com works or not ? |
| 14:02 |
|
owen |
It comes up for me Paul |
| 14:02 |
|
_hdl_ |
works for me. |
| 14:02 |
|
paul |
thus bureau.paulpoulain.com/cvslog should work too |
| 14:02 |
|
paul |
(_hdl_, did you change something on bind parameters or was am isliwa problem strange ?) |
| 14:04 |
|
_hdl_ |
no, I didnot change antything |
| 14:05 |
|
paul |
so it was just DNS changes that were long to transmit (or am isliwa specific problem) |
| 16:24 |
|
owen |
Did you read my exchange with paul this morning about the new 'warndeparture' preference |
| 16:24 |
|
owen |
? |
| 16:27 |
|
owen |
Sorry, that was directed to kados |
| 16:27 |
|
owen |
(if he's still around) |
| 16:32 |
|
kados |
I didn't |
| 16:32 |
|
kados |
I'll check the log |
| 16:34 |
|
kados |
owen: I did run updatedatabase |
| 16:34 |
|
kados |
owen: did it not update that syspref? |
| 16:35 |
|
owen |
The new pref didn't show up in the list. I added it manually just now, but it doesn't seem to be working |
| 16:36 |
|
kados |
I've just emailed you the output from updatedatabase yesterday |
| 16:38 |
|
owen |
Strange |
| 16:45 |
|
kados |
so this line: |
| 16:45 |
|
kados |
Adding row to systempreferences: explanation => Delay before expiry where a |
| 16:45 |
|
kados |
+notice is sent when issuing variable => NotifyBorrowerDeparture value => 0 |
| 16:45 |
|
kados |
+type => Integer |
| 16:45 |
|
kados |
would seem to indicate it was added |
| 18:19 |
|
owen |
So, for those of you following along at home, it was all a symlink problem. Everything working now as expected. |
| 18:19 |
|
owen |
The new NotifyBorrowerDeparture pref will be very useful to NPL |
| 18:37 |
|
kados |
hey rach |
| 18:37 |
|
rach |
how's it going in the frozen north? |
| 18:37 |
|
kados |
well ... it's not too cold today ... but generally dreary weather |
| 18:39 |
|
rach |
it's actually a bit sunny today |
| 18:39 |
|
rach |
christmas is a lot less tropical here than you might imagine :-) |
| 18:40 |
|
rach |
which is good for me anyway |
| 18:43 |
|
kados |
:-) |
| 18:43 |
|
kados |
so ... I thought in the north island it never got cold ... I must be mistaken |
| 18:43 |
|
kados |
a friend of mine who lives in NZ just told me it even freezes up north in Auckland |
| 18:45 |
|
rach |
hmm well freezes in auckland is a bit unusual |
| 18:45 |
|
rach |
but you certainly get frosts |
| 18:46 |
|
rach |
here in wellington we have a fairly temperate climate, doesn't get much below 10 C and not much above 25 C other than a few days of the year |
| 18:48 |
|
rach |
so is a balmy 18 or so - umm which I can't work out what that would be for you :-) |
| 18:50 |
|
rach |
ah 64.4 |
| 18:51 |
|
rach |
oh but is warmer than that - 22, = 72 ish |
| 18:52 |
|
kados |
huh ... so wellington's more temperate than auckland eh? |
| 18:52 |
|
kados |
weird ... it's farther south right? |
| 18:52 |
|
rach |
yeah |
| 18:53 |
|
rach |
we do get the odd flurry of snow on the hills (mountains :-) around us from time to time |
| 18:53 |
|
rach |
so in winter we'd get a week maybe of below 10 |
| 18:53 |
|
rach |
and in summer we might get a week of above 25 |
| 18:53 |
|
kados |
wow ... only a week? |
| 18:53 |
|
kados |
that I can deal with |
| 18:53 |
|
kados |
:-) |
| 18:54 |
|
kados |
seems like half the year here is under 10 :-) |
| 18:54 |
|
rach |
we tend to get lots of wind, which can take the overall feel of the place down a bit :-) |
| 18:55 |

| 18:55 |
|
rach |
that was taken in July (ie mid winter) |
| 18:55 |
|
rach |
at the beack I grew up at |
| 18:56 |
|
rach |
which is on the wellington coast |
| 18:56 |
|
rach |
and these were july the year before - http://katipo.co.nz/gallery/snow |
| 18:57 |
|
rach |
in the hills about an hour away in the opposite direction |
| 18:57 |
|
rach |
the snow is much more unusual (hence all the photos :-) |
| 18:58 |
|
rach |
people who like it hot find wellington a bit cold - my sister had been in australia for a few years, and her husband is from Darwin, he was wearing his polyprop underwear for most of his visit last christmas |
| 19:01 |
|
rach |
now they are in san diego |
| 19:27 |
|
kados |
yea, san diego's got perfect weather |

irc |
anyone around for a quick question? |
| 09:32 |
|
paul_away |
hello irc/gavin |
| 09:32 |
|
irc |
hi |
| 09:33 |
|
irc |
do you by any chance know what grants kohaadmin should have in the mysql db? |
| 09:34 |
|
paul |
not sure to understand your question |
| 09:34 |
|
irc |
I've not looked at Koha in a while and have just installed again |
| 09:35 |
|
irc |
It's installed but I'm getting errors from the blunk import... |
| 09:35 |
|
irc |
DBD::mysql::db do failed: Access denied for user: 'kohaadmin localhost' to database 'Koha' at /usr/share/koha/intranet//modules/C4/Biblio.pm line 333 |
| 09:35 |
|
irc |
and it seems that the kohaadmin user doesn't have any permissions to that database |
| 09:35 |
|
irc |
or does it just need to be owner? |
| 09:37 |
|
paul |
which mysql version do you use ? I know there are some problems in installer with some versions |
| 09:37 |
|
paul |
anyway, just "grant all to kohaadmin" and that's all ;-) |
| 09:37 |
|
irc |
4.0.24-10sarge1 |
| 09:38 |
|
irc |
ah, i guess that'll do it. |
| 09:39 |
|
irc |
[ off to check the ex act syntax ] |
| 09:40 |
|
paul |
|hdl| : skype me when you're back from lunch |
| 09:44 |
|
irc |
thanks very much Paul. that's sorted |
| 09:45 |
|
paul |
you're welcom |
| 09:45 |
|
paul |
e |
| 09:45 |
|
irc |
Is there a more restricted set of privileges I could use? |
| 09:45 |
|
irc |
or is that worth the bother? |
| 09:46 |
|
paul |
it's not worth the bother I think. |
| 09:46 |
|
paul |
if you have restricted the grant to your koha db |
| 09:47 |
|
paul |
(grant all on all db is a bad idea for sure !) |
| 09:49 |
|
irc |
fair enough |
| 09:50 |
|
irc |
I've been out of the loop for a while on koha but my new employer is looking for a library system |
| 09:50 |
|
irc |
I did a little failed work on it about 9 months ago to try and use mysql's fulltxet search |
| 09:50 |
|
irc |
did the external nidexing thing work out ? |
| 09:51 |
|
paul |
??? |
| 09:52 |
|
irc |
Trying to think of the name of it but at the time (last Summer), somebody was working on using an external database for searching |
| 09:53 |
|
irc |
which was really quick and looked cool. it had support for marc too, I think |
| 09:53 |
|
paul |
ah, ok. you"re speaking of zebra |
| 09:53 |
|
irc |
indeed! |
| 09:53 |
|
paul |
we were waiting for a Perl toolkit. |
| 09:53 |
|
irc |
so no progress as yet? |
| 09:53 |
|
paul |
it has been released 2 weeks ago. |
| 09:53 |
|
irc |
i see, that will be interesting to see |
| 09:54 |
|
irc |
although our library is probably not big enough to be using that kind of thing |
| 09:54 |
|
irc |
or needing it |
| 09:54 |
|
paul |
Joshua, the Release Manager for Koha 3.0 is expecting a lot of coding in the next 3 months ! |
| 09:55 |
|
irc |
heh! cool, I'll keep an eye then. |
| 09:55 |
|
irc |
thanks for the help, I'm going to run and get some lunch. |
