hi, is there any hardware requirement for a decent koha installation with about 250 simultaneous users? |

| 08:47 |

| 08:47 |

evening chris :) |
| 08:47 |
|
chris |
jt: simultaneous librarian users, or people using the opac |
| 08:48 |
|
magnus |
chris: sorry about that, but i guess i have been a librarian about as long as you have worked on koha... ;-) |
| 08:48 |
|
jt |
chris: the current nopaste is a koha server without users using it, but somehow it bring the server to crawl |
| 08:49 |
|
jt |
what is the use of opac-reserver.pl by the way? |
| 08:50 |
|
kf |
it normally appears when you make a reserve in the opac |
| 08:50 |
|
kf |
or at least it did when I worked on that some time ago |
| 08:50 |
|
kf |
reserve = hold |
| 08:50 |
|
chris |
jt: theres no way they should be running that long |
| 08:51 |
|
chris |
55:34.02 opac-reserve.pl |
| 08:51 |
|
jt |
is this a bug or server hacked? |
| 08:51 |
|
chris |
not a bug |
| 08:51 |
|
chris |
but unlikely its been hacked |
| 08:52 |
|
kf |
I had problems with that when my perl code was not right - had to kill the processes |
| 08:52 |
|
chris |
well if you put an infinite loop in it yeah, but if you havent edited opac-reserve.pl its unlikely to be that |
| 08:52 |
|
chris |
more likely mysql is jammed |
| 08:52 |
|
jt |
the usual approvch to resolve is to restart the server orweb server |
| 08:53 |
|
jt |
but I don't think it will be the cure on the long run |
| 08:53 |
|
chris |
yeah, thats not so much resolving as postponing :) |

I am looking at label-item-search.pl and on my installation if there is more then 1 page of results it lists the first 20 and then the rows for the rest and no data. If I try to go to the next page it lists the first 20 and that is it. |

ok that makes more sense. |

yes, lots of links on the old koha.org website dont work anymore :( |

now... about label-item-search.pl |

any idea why it would be doing that? |

I can't login and resetting the password always tells me my email address does not exist |

it isn't the pdf process that is hanging up... it is the search to add them to the batch |

first does that look ok? ie is the german all there? |

is there an item? |

yr bibdata is bad? |
| 09:14 |
|
kf |
chris: sorry! It's all working now, I gave her the permissons for German |
| 09:15 |
|
DaGentooB |
no... for some reason the for loop keeps going through results after the first 20 even though the results for that page have been reduced to 20 at a time |
| 09:15 |
|
DaGentooB |
wonder what would happen if I just set the for loop to 20.... let me try it |
| 09:17 |
|
DaGentooB |
ok that did work.... it now only displays 20 per page.... |
| 09:18 |
|
DaGentooB |
but it still won't advance to the next page |
| 09:18 |
|
wasabi |
the form isnt sending a page=2 arg to the script? |
| 09:19 |
|
DaGentooB |
well at the top it lists "Results 61 through 80 of 213" |
| 09:19 |

so at least that part is going through |

jt: the koha community is welcoming anyone that want to send a patch ! Of course, your first patches will be examined very carefully & you'll probably have to send them more than once because there will be some changes to do to respect the coding guidelines.

German bibliographic format |

MAB2 to be more correct |
| 09:54 |

it's still widely used around here |
| 09:54 |
|
chris |
yeah, step backwards to go from MAB to MARC |
| 09:55 |

the problem you have to solve is import - map the new format to marc and all others so you can get data from everywhere |

Thanks chris_n, I'm still a little confused about how Bugzilla decides when to send me a message |
| 13:59 |

I don't understand your idea about a list of lists |
| 13:59 |
|
chris_n |
maybe its a bug... :-Z |
| 13:59 |
|
profmathe |
hi all |
| 14:00 |
|
chris_n |
I 'm thinking of some sort of drop-down which would have a scroll bar on one side |
| 14:01 |
|
chris_n |
allowing all lists to be available but only 10 or so viewable in the dropdown at once... make sense? |
| 14:01 |
|
* chris_n |
recalls seeing such a creature once, but can't remember where |
| 14:01 |
|
owen |
And then a link or control to load the next set of lists? |
| 14:02 |
|
chris_n |
probably so, to avoid the use of js |
| 14:02 |
|

chris_n |
owen: but since we can't use ajax stuff in opac, it might not be doable in a nice and clean way |
| 14:04 |
|
jcamins |
kf: unfortunately I use both metric and Imperial measurements. :( |
| 14:04 |
|
owen |
Can't use ajax stuff in the opac? |
| 14:04 |
|
jcamins |
chris_n: why can't we use ajax in the OPAC? |
| 14:04 |
|
chris_n |
I thought we wanted to avoid things that had the potential to cause accessibility problems? |
| 14:05 |
|
owen |
Sure, but it shouldn't keep us from adding features which are useful |
| 14:05 |
|
owen |
We just need to back them up with accessible fallbacks |
| 14:08 |
|
owen |
The trouble is the accessible fallbacks aren't as fun to develop |
| 14:09 |
|
owen |
What about keeping the 10 item limit in the popup, but offer a link to "show all" ? |
| 14:09 |
|
owen |
Or am I underestimating the number of lists some patrons might have? |
| 14:10 |
|
owen |
For the "show all" view we could use a list of items with radio buttons instead of a <select> |

second one i hope will be easy: in a fresh install, what would call nullmailer once a minute and how do i configure it? i don't see any MTA options in the admin console |

i've killed my forwards in nullmailer so my mail admin doesn't shoot me but i'd actually like it to work |

it's reading history in the opac and in the header in the staff client |
| 15:50 |

wizzyrea |
but the tab says "circulation history" |
| 15:52 |
|
kf |
we use Ausleihhistorie in German, that would be checkout history |
| 15:53 |
|
wizzyrea |
I can go with that, I just want them to all be the same |
| 15:54 |
|
wizzyrea |
reading history is more patron friendly |
| 15:54 |

circulation history is a little librarianish |

checkout history probably would make sense to both |

< has had this burning question for a while |
| 15:55 |
|
owen |
The real question is when should you submit the patch |
| 15:56 |
|
owen |
Because you can commit as many times as you want and then squash all the commits together for one patch |
| 15:56 |
|
owen |
The key is to limit your changes to one very specific feature or bug fix |
| 15:56 |
|
owen |
But within that scope you can commit many times |
| 15:57 |
|
wizzyrea |
oh oh |
| 15:57 |
|
wizzyrea |
I need to know how to do that |
| 15:57 |
|

squashing |
| 15:57 |
|
wizzyrea |
owen you'll be pleased to know that I'm using your workflow :P |
| 15:57 |
|
owen |
git rebase -i origin |
| 15:58 |
|
wizzyrea |
ah ok that's what that does |
| 15:58 |
|
owen |
That will show you a list of your commits |
| 15:58 |
|
owen |
Keep the first one as "pick" and the rest as "s" (for squash) |
| 15:58 |
|
owen |
You'll be given the opportunity to edit the commit message for the resulting squashed commit |
| 15:58 |

wizzyrea, the earlier discussion on Bug 3262 was mixed, and leaned toward having a syspref control which appeared. |

I don't really have an opinion about the code vs. full name question though |

Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=3262 enhancement, P5, ---, gmcharlt, NEW, OPAC needs syspref to show homebranch instead of current location on detail page |
| 16:25 |
|
jwagner |
I think it could be reframed so that the syspref(s) controlled whether the separate columns appeared so you could have both if you wanted. |
| 16:25 |
|
owen |
I'd rather show both than have a syspref at all |
| 16:25 |
|
wizzyrea |
^^ and he was the main detractor |
| 16:25 |
|
wizzyrea |
in that discussion |
| 16:25 |
|
jwagner |
code vs full name I think should be a syspref, though -- a lot of sites won't recognize their codes |
| 16:26 |
|

I'm fine with having both show by default so long as the template is set up properly so you could hide one or the other with jquery |
| 16:26 |
|
wizzyrea |
cool beans. I think it's a better solution than a single column |
| 16:26 |
|
wizzyrea |
and, I would need help with the syspref part for the short vs. long codes |
| 16:26 |
|
jwagner |
And are you talking the same solution for both staff and OPAC view? |
| 16:27 |
|
wizzyrea |
no, I think the OPAC only needs to show one column |
| 16:27 |
|
wizzyrea |
because patrons don't need to know where it is |
| 16:27 |
|
wizzyrea |
that one probably should be a syspref |
| 16:27 |
|
wizzyrea |
but I think it should default to home branch |
| 16:27 |
|
wizzyrea |
owen I think disagrees with that, at least according to the bug |
| 16:27 |
|
jwagner |
wizzyrea, I was looking at this one last week & had some ideas on it, but I wanted to talk to our developers. We could continue that discussion on the codes/description part |
| 16:28 |
|
jwagner |
When I looked at the code, the same part of Search.pm controls & feeds item data to both staff & OPAC search, so doing different settings would get a little involved. |
| 16:28 |
|
kf |
I vote for description - we use isil as branch code, it's really ugly :) |

Our patrons want to know where the book *is*, not where it should be. |
| 16:29 |
|
owen |
So if you're going to show only one column in the OPAC and we disagree about which one it is, then it should be a syspref |
| 16:30 |
|
wizzyrea |
so yea that should be a pref |
| 16:30 |
|
wizzyrea |
so in your library, a book can be shelved in any library? |
| 16:30 |
|
wizzyrea |
libraries |
| 16:30 |
|
jwagner |
And that's where it got complicated -- you'd have to separate out the code in Search.pm depending on whether the search was for staff or OPAC. |
| 16:31 |
|
jwagner |
(always assuming I'm reading that section of code right) |
| 16:31 |
|
owen |
wizzyrea: Theoretically |
| 16:32 |
|
owen |
wizzyrea: It's complicated by the fact that automatic transfers don't work properly (i.e. checking in something at the wrong branch and having it be transferred automatically) |
| 16:32 |
|
wizzyrea |
it shouldn't matter to the search what you show on the detail page |
| 16:33 |
|
jwagner |
During that part of Search.pm is where it's building the item data, though -- filling in the fields for location, itype, etc. |
| 16:33 |
|
wizzyrea |
gotya |
| 16:33 |
|
jwagner |
So to change what gets filled in for branch, you need to specify there |
| 16:34 |
|
wizzyrea |
our most immediate problem re: locations would be solved by the dual columns |

re: shortcode |

| 16:35 |

how do you tell the code which to grab? |

I couldn't find where those template variables were defined |
| 16:41 |
|
wizzyrea |
to compare how they are being generated |
| 16:42 |
|
jwagner |
which variable(s)? |
| 16:42 |
|
wizzyrea |
homebranch vs holdingbranch |
| 16:42 |
|
wizzyrea |
is there a good tool to help with that kind of thing? |
| 16:42 |
|
* wizzyrea |
pulls out all of the nub questions |
| 16:43 |
|
jwagner |
from Search.pm, # set item's branch name, use HomeOrHoldingBranch syspref first, fall back to the other one -- whatever is defined in the syspref is going to get set as the homebranch for search results/display |
| 16:43 |
|
jwagner |
If I'm reading it correctly |
| 16:45 |
|
jwagner |
Which brings up another question I was troubleshooting last night. The old syspref description for HomeOrHoldingBranch implies it's only used with Independent Branches: |
| 16:45 |
|
jwagner |
Used by Circulation to determine which branch of an item to check with independent branches on, and by search to determine which branch to choose for availability |
| 16:45 |
|
wizzyrea |
mm no |
| 16:45 |
|
wizzyrea |
it has applications for multibranch non independent too |
| 16:45 |
|
wizzyrea |
we are non-indy |
| 16:45 |
|
jwagner |
But it affects transfers when Independent Branches isn't on, and is affecting branch display in searching as above |
| 16:46 |
|
jwagner |
Syspref description probably needs to be amplified/clarified, then. |
| 16:46 |
|
wizzyrea |
well that's probably wrong behavior :/ |
| 16:46 |
|
wizzyrea |
as it reads, it should only affect using the circ/fines rules |
| 16:46 |
|
wizzyrea |
if it does more than that either needs to be documented, or the purpose of the syspref changed. |
| 16:47 |
|
wizzyrea |
*it either |
| 16:47 |
|
wizzyrea |
but yea, it's apparently a big mess |
| 16:47 |
|
jwagner |
I think I'll open a bugzilla on that problem |

wizzyrea |
the 3.2 text is as follows: Use the checkout and fines rules of |

I saw that too. Am much puzzled. |
| 16:51 |

in regards to where the template variables are generated... |
| 16:52 |

oh zen: can you tell me how you do bulk import? have you done it with authority files? or only bib records? |

Would other libraries find it useful if Koha optionally checked that each item had a unique location/call#/copy#? |
| 18:29 |
|
ebegin |
jcamins, it's my understanding that call# doesn't have to be unique... but i may be wrong, i'm not a librarian :) |
| 18:29 |
|
wizzyrea |
yea, we don't have unique call numbers |
| 18:31 |
|
jcamins |
ebegin: you are completely correct. However, I would like to know when I'm assigning a duplicate call number. |
| 18:31 |
|
jcamins |
I was thinking of something that added a message after you created an item "this call number is a duplicate." |
| 18:31 |
|
wizzyrea |
something like that would almost certainly have to be optional |
| 18:31 |
|
jcamins |
Controlled by a syspref, obviously. |
| 18:34 |
|
jcamins |
It's not a feature so urgent that I'm going to do anything about it right now, I was just wondering if anyone else would find it useful. |
| 18:36 |
|
ebegin |
jcamins, meanwhile, you could create an SQL report stating your duplicate call numbers... |

# for pointing out that Koha already provided a solution to my problem |
| 19:10 |
|
wizzyrea |
is there some trick to modifying the template includes? I made a change and it's not being reflected and It's quite flummoxing to me |
| 19:10 |
|
owen |
Are you sure you're modifying the right template? You haven't switched languages by mistake have you? |
| 19:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
well I will double check that |
| 19:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
but I don't think so |
| 19:11 |
|
owen |
It wouldn't happen unless you'd installed translations for testing |
| 19:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
no, it's not the language |
| 19:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
it's in members-menu.inc |
| 19:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
I can't change the text from "Circulation history" to Checkout History |
| 19:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
or |
| 19:11 |
|
wizzyrea |
rather |

it's changed, but it's not reflected |

Are you sure there's not also a patrons-menu.inc? |

| 19:13 |
|
wizzyrea |
patron-search-box, patron-search, patron-toolbar |
| 19:13 |
|
wizzyrea |
but members-menu.inc is what's being included in the tmpl I'm looking at (readingrec.tmpl) |
| 19:13 |
|
ebegin |
wizzyrea, make sure you are modifying the right version. Installed dir vs source dir (depending of your install type) |
| 19:14 |
|
wizzyrea |
maybe circ-menu? |
| 19:14 |
|
wizzyrea |
ebegin: also a good idea, i'm pretty sure I'm working in the live dir |
| 19:14 |
|
wizzyrea |
it's a dev install |
| 19:14 |
|
wizzyrea |
since changes I made to other templates have been reflected |
| 19:14 |
|
owen |
Yeah, circ-menu.inc |
| 19:14 |
|
ebegin |
ok, so it's the live dir then ;) |
| 19:15 |

let me look at circ-menu |

witout formatting it's hard to tell which items were in the notice |

and with formatting the table gets too big |
| 19:27 |
|
wizzyrea |
tis true |
| 19:27 |

So both tabs show basically the same info? |
| 19:27 |

I don't have a preference really, I'm just wondering why ^^ |

I rather like the messaging view |

weird |
| 19:28 |
|
wizzyrea |
I mean (dangit) the notices view |
| 19:28 |

it would be better if there was just another column in link in the messaging view to show the content |
| 19:28 |
|
cait |
ah, now you are confusing me :) |
| 19:28 |
|
wizzyrea |
I like the verbosity of the notices view |
| 19:29 |
|
wizzyrea |
it's not like you're going to use that to know what they had checked out, that's what checkout history is for |
| 19:29 |
|
wizzyrea |
but you would use it to see what notice they got when they claim to have returned an item |
| 19:29 |
|
wizzyrea |
and got a notice anyway |

(we have seen that happen when a person returns an item after library hours, then gets the overdue message because their item is in the book drop when the overdues are generated. Boy are they irate.) |
| 19:31 |
|
wizzyrea |
idk, I'd like to get rid of one of them because they are redundant |
| 19:31 |
|
wizzyrea |
but I'm not sure which |
| 19:31 |
|
owen |
We don't even charge fines and patrons are still irate about it. |
| 19:31 |
|
wizzyrea |
and if they serve separate purposes |
| 19:31 |
|
wizzyrea |
yea, not many of our libraries charge fines either |

"members/notices.pl and members/messaging.pl are doing the same thing" |
| 19:49 |
|
cait |
wizzy: meant bug report, sorry, getting late |

The commit was reverted, "Should remove members/notices.pl instead" |

weird |
| 19:49 |

...but obviously no one went back and actually removed notices.pl |

hdl's comment "should remove members/notices.pl instead" refers to the more verbose version right? |

dk what's better, seeing the text of the notice or only being able to say that it was sent |

Isn't more information usually better? |

so does your Check Out tab say "circulate" |

i'm progressing through installing perl module prerequisites for 3.2beta on archlinux but with perl5.12. |

it seems Time::localtime is builtin core |

though i've installed Date:ICal the koha_perl_deps.pl -m still shows it as missing. Also that HTTP::OAI has a dependency on XML::SAX::Base that conflict with the earlier installed Sax parser. I've just comment out the HTTP::OAI from the makefile. |

Unix::Syslog is used by zebraqueue_daemon.pl Maybe that should be a perl required module? |
| 21:48 |
|
chris |
no, because that script is deprecated |

no more wiki.koha.org ak.a. http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?[…]ncodingscratchpad (INSTALL.ubuntu and INSTALL.fedora7 refer to this for an install) |

chris |
are you installing from git? |
| 22:17 |
|
wajasu |
i grabbed the beta |
| 22:18 |
|
chris |
right |
| 22:18 |
|
chris |
if you have time, you could clone the repo, and send a patch fixing those links |
| 22:19 |
|
chris |
if not, then report a bug (cos it will scroll out of my scroll buffer here, and never get fixed otherwise) |

i'm also installing into an lxc-container, so my distribution is minimal. then I can run a script to build koha lxc-containers and run/test installs |
| 22:19 |
|
chris |
cool |
| 22:19 |

ok. i'll write bug. maybe a patch when I have time. |

no LC_???? thing needs locale set to UTF-8 now? |
| 22:20 |
|
wajasu |
as its not mentioned in INSTALL.debian |
| 22:32 |
|
wajasu |
ok. i set my LC_???? environ vars correctly now for my lxc-container. just need to config mysql apache, then run the webinstaller. |

OK, I looked up an item in the catalog and then looked at the source code for that page, and saw it was using Koha. |
| 22:40 |

but chris, was there something more obvious to you that indicated they were using koha? |

i think chris has a daily automated 'koha' google-search running. |
| 22:47 |
|
rhcl |
Yea, frankly I don't peruse the world's library catalogs doing searches to see which ones run Koha. |
| 22:47 |
|
wasabi |
and it often returns surprising results, like this one :) |
| 22:48 |
|
wasabi |
yep, but google does |
| 22:49 |

Yea, but that's like doing the easy sudoku's--the hard sudoku's are like doing the work yourself, and looking at the code, and are much more rewarding. |

(if you get an error it's not installed. If it just sits there its OK and you can ctrl-C out) |
