hi owen |

|
owen |
Hi hdl. I haven't seen paul in a while, is he on vacation? |
12:39 |
|
hdl |
Nope, he has been in New Caledonia for 2 weeks and a half now (near NewZealand) |
12:40 |
|
hdl |
and it has poor internet connectivity. |
12:40 |
|
owen |
Doing what? |
12:41 |
|
hdl |
A big Library was migrated. |
12:41 |
|
hdl |
(In fact the main public Library there) |
12:41 |
|
hdl |
So he was installing and training persons. |
12:42 |
|
owen |
Wow. I hope it's also an enjoyable trip for him |
12:42 |
|
hdl |
not that much. |
12:42 |
|
hdl |
Weather is horrible.... |
12:43 |
|
hdl |
Raining.... and raining again. |
12:43 |
|
owen |
That's too bad. It looks like it's a nice place when the weather's good |
12:54 |
|
hdl |
I know. |
12:56 |
|
hdl |
hi js |
12:58 |

hi hdl ans #koha :) |
13:04 |
|
owen |
kados around? |
13:09 |
|
owen |
He must be PLAying |
13:17 |
|
hdl |
owen : do you know what is happening with plone contest? |
13:18 |
|
owen |
No idea. |
14:04 |

hdl |
hi thd-away |

fbcit |
hi #koha |

|
owen |
Hi fbcit |
15:49 |
|
slef |
hi all - does anyone else get a list of versions in their error messages when DebugLevel is 2? |
15:49 |
|
slef |
Also, I'm pondering adding backtraces to the error messages |
15:50 |
|
slef |
assuming no-one's added that to HEAD while I've not been tracking that closely |
15:54 |
|
fbcit |
slef: gotta run, but backtraces++ |
16:28 |
|
slef |
Are the new lists running yet? |
16:53 |
|
hdl |
slef not officially. |
16:55 |
|
slef |
hdl: so my emails to koha-devel just vanished or what? ;-) |
16:55 |
|
hdl |
no. |
16:55 |
|
hdl |
It will be delivered. |
16:56 |
|
slef |
easily confused, aren't I? |
16:56 |
|
hdl |
But since information is not official, I thought it would be better not to use two systems sending emails to the lists. |
17:16 |
|
hdl |
slef : email received. |
17:36 |
|
slef |
hdl: can you resend it out to official? |
17:37 |
|
hdl |
yes. |
17:37 |
|
slef |
thanks |
17:37 |
|
hdl |
But all the persons will receive it twice. |
17:37 |
|
slef |
oo lummee |
17:37 |
|
slef |
or "cripes" |
17:37 |
|
slef |
never mind then |
18:11 |
|
fbcit |
kados: point me to the discussion of various backup/standby solutions for koha |
18:17 |
|
atz |
fbcit: see anything for mysql backup |
18:18 |
|
atz |
live replication is cool, but mysqldump cron job is probably most common |
18:19 |
|
fbcit |
atz: tnx |
18:20 |
|
atz |
to me, the Cadillac is probably tivoli running on a tape library |
18:20 |
|
atz |
but that would be overkill for even a midsize institution |
18:47 |
|
fbcit |
atz: I have a DDS drive in that server, but have bad experiences w/tape backup |
18:48 |
|
atz |
bad carts? bad drives? |
18:50 |
|
fbcit |
bad drives && bad tapes |
18:50 |
|
fbcit |
need restore? bad tape-- |
18:51 |
|
fbcit |
having said that, I may setup a mysqldump and tarball it to the DDS |
18:51 |
|
atz |
that would be normal... or push the gzipped tarball over to a storage server |
18:52 |
|
fbcit |
surely all of the tapes in a 10 day rotation can't be bad |
18:52 |
|
fbcit |
actually I could do both |
18:52 |
|
fbcit |
I currently rsync backups off of several *nix boxes here to a central rsync server |
18:52 |
|
atz |
makes sense |
18:53 |
|
fbcit |
I use it to run a warm standby of our web radio broadcaster |
18:55 |
|
atz |
Got Reels? : ) |
18:55 |
|
fbcit |
hehe |

gmcharlt: hi |
19:07 |
|
fbcit |
any thoughts on just how large a image file we should allow for patron images? |
19:08 |
|
fbcit |
maybe 1MB or < ? |
19:08 |
|
fbcit |
my test images are roughly 20K |
19:08 |
|
owen |
Are we using any other criteria? dimensions? |
19:08 |
|
atz |
definitely less than a meg! |
19:09 |
|
fbcit |
owen: not currently |
19:09 |
|
owen |
and we're not doing any re-sizing on the server, right? |
19:09 |
|
fbcit |
right |
19:10 |
|
fbcit |
we probably should be doing a limit on dimensions as well |
19:10 |
|
owen |
I'd say llimit to less than 100k, at the very least. Maybe 60. |
19:10 |
|
atz |
we're only talking about maybe 120x200 pixels of space |
19:10 |
|
atz |
in terms of layout |
19:11 |
|
fbcit |
the file size limit is more a protective measure |
19:11 |
|
atz |
right, i'm just saying as a practical matter, we don't have layout space to display "more" image data |
19:12 |
|
owen |
Quickly creating an image of that size in Photoshop, adding 100% noise, it comes to 80K |
19:12 |
|
fbcit |
so maybe 100K for starters? |
19:12 |
|
owen |
I think that's safe |
19:13 |
|
owen |
Don't forget your goggles |
19:15 |
|
atz |
Thee gogglez, they do nothing! |
19:15 |
|
owen |
:D |
19:17 |
|
fbcit |
I do think we need to limit based on dimensions, but don't have the brain power to think about it now |
19:17 |
|
fbcit |
atz: heh |
19:32 |
|
fbcit |
how's this: |
19:32 |
|
fbcit |
warn "$filename is TOO BIG!!! I refuse to beleagur my database with that much data. Try reducing the pixel dimensions and I\'ll reconsider."; |
19:37 |
|
fbcit |
the deed is done |
19:40 |
|
fbcit |
owen: I'm seeing a couple of js errors in opac-main.pl |
19:40 |
|
owen |
What? |
19:40 |
|
fbcit |
firebug seems not to like: YAHOO.util.Event.onContentReady("changelanguage", function () { |
19:41 |
|
fbcit |
it claims "YAHOO is not defined" |
19:41 |
|
owen |
That implies that the YUI js libraries are not loading properly |
19:42 |
|
fbcit |
ahh, so something on my install? |
19:44 |
|
owen |
Sounds like it. |
19:44 |
|
atz |
you can be set to load local copies, or from yahoo directly |
19:44 |
|
owen |
Check the yuipath system pref |
19:44 |
|
fbcit |
I'm using the current default which I think is local |
19:45 |
|
atz |
for many international users, yahoo performance is poorer than local |
19:46 |
|
fbcit |
/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/lib/yui |
19:48 |
|
fbcit |
owen: is the git copy of the yui library up to date? |
19:48 |
|
fbcit |
or do I need to get it from Yahoo directly? |
19:48 |
|
owen |
...which of course isn't quite right for the OPAC :| |
19:48 |
|
fbcit |
opps |
19:49 |
|
fbcit |
:-( |
19:49 |
|
owen |
I guess it works, though. |
19:49 |
|
atz |
fbcit: git is current |
19:49 |
|
owen |
I wonder what the problem is... |
19:49 |
|
fbcit |
my mistake |
19:49 |
|
fbcit |
hold on |
19:49 |
|
owen |
No, not your mistake |
19:49 |
|
owen |
We only have one pref for both intranet and OPAC |
19:50 |
|
fbcit |
so I notice now I looked |
19:50 |
|
atz |
this kind of thing is annoying... but currently necessary, since the opac and intranet *could* logically be on different servers |
19:50 |
|
atz |
and we haven't set aside a convention for using a "common" area |
19:50 |
|
atz |
(besides C4) |
19:52 |
|
fbcit |
owen: then is your install using separate yui for opac and staff |
19:52 |
|
fbcit |
? |
19:53 |
|
owen |
No, I've just haven't run the YUI lib locally in a while, so I hadn't seen the error. I'm checking it out |
20:00 |
|
owen |
fbcit: There were a couple of YUI files missing from git. I'll submit a patch for it today |
20:01 |
|
fbcit |
tnx owen :) |
20:05 |
|
atz |
cool... it looks like there were a couple revisions in the past month or so |
20:06 |
|
atz |
owen: are we using "Uploader" ? |
20:07 |
|
owen |
It wasn't a revision, it was a file I'd linked to in the OPAC without remembering to add to the local files in the intranet |
20:07 |
|
owen |
Although yeah, there have been updates. We're actually using an older version now, it's been so long since I started using the YUI stuff |
20:08 |
|
atz |
it's funny, i think of yahoo code as static... like "Yahoo's still doing development?" |
20:10 |
|
owen |
atz, theres an include in the staff client that does some AJAXy upload stuff, used by stage-mark-import.pl, but I've never seen it in action |
20:11 |
|
owen |
We're not using YUI's version anywhere |
20:11 |
|
atz |
theirs invokes flash |
20:11 |
|
atz |
so it would be a one-off |
00:02 |
|
atz |
tags and baker + taylor patches are sent! |
00:02 |
|
atz |
wooot! |

rebasing up to speed was an ordeal though |
