01:38 talljoy_away yo
01:41 Agent_Dani oy
01:41 eythian yoyo
01:41 Agent_Dani Yeah, that's me. ;)
01:52 clrh left #koha
01:56 talljoy_away lol
02:02 * Agent_Dani is trying to convince herself that she's doing The Right Thing.
02:04 eythian ITS GOING TO ALL GO HORRIBLY WRONG
02:04 eythian does that help?
02:05 Agent_Dani Ah, there's the lettle satyr on the other shoulder!
02:17 talljoy_away Agent_Dani: fake it until you make it
02:18 Agent_Dani talljoy_away: hehe
02:18 Agent_Dani The thing in question is attending uni while working full-time.
02:18 eythian I did that for a while
02:19 eythian I don't really recommend it unless you're really good at time management
02:19 eythian (I'm not)
02:20 Agent_Dani That's my weakness but I am working on it.
02:20 Agent_Dani Right now I'm doing only one class per semester so it isn't costing me tuition, but I'll probably consider changing that in the future so it doesn't take 10 years to complete my BS.
02:21 eythian Yeah, you could probably get away with 1/4th-1/2 of a regular course maybe. When I was doing it, it was postgrad which was a mixed blessing.
02:21 * Agent_Dani nods
02:22 Agent_Dani Not helping is that my employer is quite inflexible about this.
02:23 Agent_Dani I.e. I couldn't get any flexibility in my 07:00-15:00 hours even with a 19:30-20:45 class.
02:23 * Agent_Dani notes here that she is employed by the uni in question.
02:24 eythian ah, that's surprising then.
02:24 eythian I thought a uni would be good with, y'know, uni.
02:24 Agent_Dani Not so much this place.
02:25 Agent_Dani At least specific managers, and I will consider going over my managers head if that becomes necessary, e.g. when I need to take Calculus which I cannot do outside of my usual work schedule.
02:27 Agent_Dani Anyhow, that's my hour of free time for today. Goodnight!
02:29 eythian bye

03:25 druthb o/
03:26 eythian I'm starting to develop a problem with o'Reilly ebooks. I keep buying them every time I encounter something I need to know about. It's a fiendish scheme they've got going on.
03:27 druthb it is a clever scheme, eythian.
03:27 eythian The android market makes it a little too easy.
03:32 druthb It's the modern version of putting the cookies right next to the checkout at the grocery...
03:36 eythian it is very much

05:13 Judit joined #koha
05:13 Judit hi
05:13 wahanui que tal, Judit
05:13 Judit is there an easy way to change on the /cgi-bin/koha/opac-user.pl the "If you don't have a password yet, stop by the circulation desk the next time you're in the library. We'll happily set one up for you.
05:13 Judit " text
05:13 Judit there is no syspref is there?
05:16 eythian I don't think so
05:16 eythian there ought to be, and it wouldn't be hard to do.
05:17 eythian I think the standard is to rewrite it with Javascript, which isn't a great solution.
05:17 Judit not great?
05:18 eythian it works mostly. Unless the person doesn't have JS turned on. But it's just not a very nice solution. A syspref or similar would be nicer.
05:18 eythian Well, actually, ideally you'd make it understand languages.
05:18 Judit so it is doable
05:18 Judit just not nice
05:18 eythian yep
05:19 eythian it'll work pretty much fine with javascript.
05:19 Judit how much work approx
05:19 Judit :)
05:19 eythian 10 minutes
05:19 Judit :D
05:19 Judit do make a syspref
05:19 Judit ?
05:19 eythian no, to do it with javascript
05:19 Judit and to do the syspref?
05:20 eythian I don't know. In a simple way, an hour or two, but I'd like to run it by other people, as it wouldn't work with multiple languages very well.
05:21 eythian And it may require building some way of translating editable messages, which is pretty messy.
05:21 eythian or, would need to be implemented fromt he ground up
05:21 eythian and that's a significant amount of work.
05:21 Judit thanks
05:21 Judit have you seen this: http://www.stuff.co.nz/dominio[…]t-like-Wellington
05:22 Judit made me think of you :D
05:22 eythian heh. Yeah, I hear the winds didn't even get to 100km/h, so really just light breezes.
05:22 Judit light breeze :D
05:22 Judit no that is notnormal

05:58 fredericd cait: Are you invistigating a solution for bug 6750?
05:58 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6750 critical, P5, ---, frederic, NEW , Guarantor search broken on translated templates
05:58 indradg joined #koha
05:58 cait fredericd: not yet
05:59 Irma1 left #koha
05:59 cait i thought fixing the translation processing bug would perhap fix it - but I see the file for the search itself is not in the list
06:00 cait fredericd: also the test is complaining about some things I don't know how to fix
06:00 fredericd It won't work in this case, even it's a related bug
06:00 cait fredericd: the first few results that have no patch are some of those
06:00 fredericd the issue comes from a complex JS
06:02 cait can you fix it?
06:02 fredericd Could you do a synthesis of the work in progress on the templates bug? what have been done, what have to be done
06:02 fredericd for 6750, I don't know, I take a look
06:02 cait fredericd: i can try to do so tomororw
06:03 cait planning to sign-off on owen's patches
06:03 cait and perhaps apply all of them at one and see what's still missing
06:03 fredericd Ok. If I can't fix 6750, I will leave a comment on BZ
06:03 cait ok
06:03 cait tomorrow is gbsd
06:04 cait hope a lot of things will get signed off
06:05 eythian oh, is it. Damn, rangi and I were thinking of finding a pub with free wifi and knocking off a bunch of them, but I don't know if he'll be in tomorrow.
06:05 alex_away is now known as alex_a
06:06 alex_a bonjour #koha

06:20 alex_a and all
06:20 eythian hiya
06:20 eythian wahanui: why can't it be both‽
06:20 wahanui eythian: huh?
06:21 hdl joined #koha
06:26 hdl1 left #koha
06:28 cait or means both can be true
06:28 * cait spends to much time with boolean algebra lately
06:29 cait although I really doubt that you are a good influence on wahanui
06:31 eythian the best influence I think you mean!
06:31 lastnode hi, i dunno if some of you remember me, but I'm an English teacher from Colombo, Sri Lanka who is trying to pitch Koha to his school administration
06:31 lastnode ive shown the librarian and she seems imperssed
06:32 lastnode id like to outline a technical setup i have in mind and get some feedback from you guys
06:32 lastnode is there a mailing list i can use for that?
06:32 cait eythian: I still remember the germ thing!
06:33 eythian lastnode: the regular koha list
06:33 cait mailinglists?
06:33 cait mailing lists?
06:33 wahanui mailing lists are at http://koha-community.org/supp[…]ha-mailing-lists/
06:33 lastnode thanks eythian
06:33 lastnode and wahanui
06:33 wahanui rumour has it i am a repository of important and useful and accurate information
06:33 cait wahanui has the link for you :)
06:33 wahanui cait: i'm not following you...
06:33 cait it's ok wahanui
06:33 eythian cait: the germ this is the Truth! Why are you suppressing it?!
06:33 cait lastnode: wahanui is our bot :)
06:33 lastnode the main list - http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha ?
06:33 lastnode oh my bad

06:34 cait and cookies
06:34 cait wahanui botsnack cookie
06:34 wahanui :)
06:34 cait eythian: hmpf!
06:34 eythian wahanui: the main list is at http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha
06:34 wahanui OK, eythian.
06:35 eythian wahanui: germs is <reply>Germs originated in Germany, before rapidly spreading throughout the rest of the world.
06:35 wahanui ...but germs is <reply>...
06:35 lastnode thanks,ill drop an email after work today
06:35 eythian no wahanui, germs is <reply>Germs originated in Germany, before rapidly spreading throughout the rest of the world.
06:35 wahanui okay, eythian.
06:35 cait grrr
06:35 eythian :D
06:35 lastnode im considering running koha in a vm since backups and stuff are a lot easier
06:36 eythian lastnode: vms are fine, just be ensure that they have enough performance to run mysql and zebra
06:36 lastnode also, i think i aksed this yesterday, but what is the most non-technical howto doc koha has? ive been through thirdy party doc links etc. and sent the librarian a few
06:36 cait we do that too :)
06:36 lastnode but im looking for a general overview of koha froma non-tech librarian's POV
06:36 cait lastnode: for installing koha? or using it?
06:36 eythian here we tend to run koha and zebra in a vm, but with a dedicated database server.
06:36 lastnode using it cait
06:36 cait documentation?
06:36 wahanui i guess documentation is at http://koha-community.org/documentation/
06:36 cait there is the english user manual
06:36 lastnode yeah ive linked to the main categories from there
06:37 cait ah ok
06:37 lastnode and ive also linked to some of the video tutorials
06:37 cait there is also a guide from brooke that might be helpful
06:37 lastnode but one link is broken
06:37 cait beginners guide?
06:37 eythian wahanui: moth apples is <reply>Moth apples are smaller than crab apples, sweeter too. Don't be tempted to eat them, as they are highly explosive.
06:37 wahanui OK, eythian.
06:37 cait lastnode: oh, you should report that to liz or nengard
06:38 lastnode ok, how do i do that? http://opensource.califa.org/koha_training is broken
06:38 cait wahanui: newbie guide is at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Newbie_guide
06:38 wahanui OK, cait.
06:38 lastnode and i was told http://www.pakban.net/koha/tut/newbie.html is out of date
06:38 matts_away is now known as matts
06:38 lastnode oh
06:38 lastnode that one
06:38 * lastnode looks
06:39 eythian lastnode: it seems out of date, but it's hard to say as it has no version numbers referenced.
06:39 eythian but it might be OK as a starter.
06:39 cait Brooke updated the wiki page for 3.2 I think so it should still be quite ok
06:39 cait the pakban link might be the older version
06:39 lastnode mediawiki looks broken to me in FF5
06:39 lastnode but the guide looks good
06:39 lastnode ill check it out, thanks guys
06:40 cait ah yes, ourmediawiki does that
06:40 cait when a page has no category, so I was told
06:40 cait but don't ask me how to add one...
06:40 lastnode my biggest concern is that koha might be overkill for what we wanna do. it's a small school, with 3k books atm
06:40 lastnode but it will grow, so i think koha is the way to go, due to it being FOSS and havign a strng userbase/community
06:41 eythian well, you don't have to use all the bits :)
06:41 lastnode that's true
06:41 cait it has a lot of features, but we think it's quite intuitive to use
06:41 lastnode it's just that even with fast add the adding record page
06:41 lastnode can be quite intimidating
06:41 lastnode for a new user
06:41 cait I get not a lot of questions about how to use features
06:41 cait I am supporting smaller libraries mostly
06:42 lastnode im apprehensive of setting ti up
06:42 lastnode because of the data. IANA sysadmin
06:42 lastnode and i dont want to lose the data haha
06:42 reiveune joined #koha
06:42 lastnode so that's why im considering vms
06:42 lastnode so i can just do a daily clone of each vm
06:42 lastnode and rest easy
06:43 reiveune hello
06:43 lastnode in any case, i guess i should detail all that and send to the koha list
06:43 lastnode thanks again!
06:43 lastnode brb
06:44 cait ok, have to go to - brb :)

07:12 lastnode eythian: and replacing teh db is simply a matter of replacing the file, or willthere be sql involved
07:13 lastnode oh it will backup a sql dump?
07:13 eythian it backs up the config and the SQL. You can then run koha-restore with those files on a fresh install to put it back.
07:13 lastnode sweet!

08:54 glernil hello
08:54 wahanui bonjour, glernil
08:55 glernil I just want to ask something about the koha debian package
08:55 kmkale left #koha
08:56 glernil i have 3.2.9 installed on my machine and i'm planning to upgrade to 3.4
08:57 magnuse i have not tried that, but it should be fine
08:58 magnuse there is a script you need to run, but the packages will remind you when you upgrade
08:58 glernil will the upgrade affect all the instances in my machine? by the way i used koha-common package and have two koha instances
08:58 magnuse yep, all the instances should be taken care of
08:58 magnuse but of course, make sure you do a backup of the database first!
08:59 glernil using the built in script in the package?
08:59 magnuse either that or just mysqldump
09:00 magnuse koha-dump should be a good choice
09:00 glernil actually i did an upgrade of a test installation in a virtual machine but an error occured
09:01 Oak joined #koha

09:01 Oak :)
09:01 glernil then i tried to use the script to upgrade to 3.4
09:01 kf hi Oak
09:01 Oak @later tell Brooke http://www.sebastianmarshall.c[…]n-dollar-question

09:03 glernil nope. i just ignored it. then it went fine.
09:04 glernil but i'm not sure if it is working properly as it should be.
09:05 magnuse hm, i would make sure it does...
09:05 magnuse maybe do the test upgrade again and make a note of the error? or test the test you have done thoroughly?
09:06 glernil ok. got to try again.
09:07 glernil another thing.. is it possible to create separate crontab settings for koha-instance1 and koha-instance2?
09:08 magnuse glernil: i'm not sure about that, eythian would know...

09:28 Brooke noise = bettah then dead in that case.
09:28 magnuse nope, it will be lots of tweets

09:34 Brooke Can I put my character's profile on a web page?
09:34 Brooke Sure. You can generate a Character Badge image which you can put on any other site you like, and it'll be updated to show your character's progression through adventures.
09:34 magnuse but it shouldn't be tied to me...

09:36 magnuse don't think so...

09:38 kf and it links back
09:39 kf Barrc: there is a document about new sys prefs on the wiki
09:39 kf system preferences?
09:40 Brooke anyone know if the new manual is going to add a search sometime soon? that page went up to 3.2
09:40 kf wahanui: system preferences is http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]ystem_Preferences
09:40 wahanui OK, kf.
09:41 Brooke kf: I'm still betting that if you ask the creator, they'll be cool with it given other responses.
09:41 Barrc Thanks - I have been reading that, I thought that the new sys pref in, lets say, the admin.pref file would save it to the database, and it does. It just does't insert it correctly!
09:42 Barrc However, a SQL insert directly works fine
09:42 kf hm you should also add it to the sys pref sql file
09:42 kf for new installs and to updatedatabase

11:19 slef pondering KohaCon12 in June: opinions?  It would be easier to find venue and accommodation in Edinburgh because the big festivals won't be on.
11:19 kf trying to blame you for a new awesome feature
11:20 kf slef: no objections from me
11:20 kf but june 2012 or 13?
11:20 slef 2012
11:20 kf ok
11:20 kf no objections then, the sooner I get to see you all again the better :)
11:20 jcamins_away slef: makes sense to me.
11:21 kf and edinburgh is cool - I have been there once when visiting friends in scotland :)
11:21 slef June would also be more daylight and better weather if there's a daytrip... or if you just want to walk up the volcano
11:21 rangi june is good
11:22 * jcamins_away has never been to Edinburgh in the autumn, but there's certainly a lot more sunlight in June than in, for example, March.
11:22 slef rangi escapes the winter
11:22 Brooke if you are fine cutting the prep time you've got back that far, should be fine
11:22 rangi yup
11:22 kf :)
11:22 slef jcamins_away: Sep is probably similar daylight to March.
11:22 Brooke mathematically, that'd bear out
11:22 jcamins_away slef: yeah, that's what I figured.
11:23 slef Brooke: bizarrely, it might actually move us the right side of a booking horizon and lengthen the prep time.
11:23 Brooke cross quarters should all have roughly the same daylight
11:24 slef (as in: might be able to reserve June now, but not Sep until next May... that sort of thing)
11:24 * Brooke nods.
11:24 rangi yep, thats often how it works
11:24 rangi getting a venue is 80% of the organising, the rest it just details :)

11:25 slef ok, I've updated the proposals table. I'll dump this back on mle now :)
11:25 Brooke I don't think any good would come out of bullying you to have it at a time that's inconvenient to you
11:25 Brooke it'd be like me saying I'm coming over tomorrow and I don't care if you're ready to house me
11:25 kf june... that's near and still too far away
11:25 slef I like Sep. Less frying my skin than summer :)
11:25 slef But it's not slefcon.
11:25 * Brooke thinks of fried salmon skin...
11:26 rangi least you have ozone :)
11:26 Brooke I have enough hot air to fix that rangi ;)
11:26 rangi hot air is the problem :)
11:27 jcamins_away Looks like Edinburgh's going to be hosting KohaCon12- no other proposals from Europe!
11:27 rangi barring a ton of votes for reno, looks that way
11:27 Brooke nope, but Reno's on the board. I'm supporting Edinburgh though
11:28 kf oh
11:28 kf today is deadline
11:28 kf hope europe gets a ton of votes
11:28 Brooke phone yer friends :P
11:29 kf nah, cheating would not be nice
11:29 Brooke voting isn't cheating. If they show up, it counts :D
11:29 slef hrm, what does the deadline mean? Should I have not updated the date?
11:29 Brooke now if you pay them to vote for you, and they've no intent to go, that'd be cheating.
11:29 Oak :)
11:30 slef my mistake... I thought the meeting was the deadline and didn't look.
11:30 Brooke that deadline to me is put in a bid or you don't get to be on the ballot

12:55 oleonard I think the answer to this question is "not since Koha 1.x," but here goes:
12:55 oleonard Is there a way to set up a branch so that it doesn't show up as an option in OPAC searches, login forms, etc?
12:55 oleonard I got a question about setting up a "Cataloging/In-processing" branch
12:57 kf I talked to sekjal about this
12:57 kf I don't think it's possible currently
12:58 kf using jquery you could kill it from some places I think.. and you could suppress the titles with opac suppression perhaps
12:58 kf hmm
13:00 kf another question: we see a problem with allowonshelfholds in 3.4.4 - one book checked out, one book on shelf, no on self holds allowed, but still you can place a hold in opac
13:00 kf I think this was different in other versions

14:43 jcamins_away Unfortunately, I can't come up with how to find the answer.

14:44 wizzyrea i had to look it up in the logs lol

15:25 libsysguy so can anybody comment on Koha and Solr?  I'm really interested in trying it out.
15:25 wizzyrea would anyone object if I changed the default sorting on the saved reports page from numeric by author to numeric by id?
15:25 wizzyrea you just missed hdl
15:25 libsysguy dang it
15:25 wizzyrea it's driving me NUTS
15:25 libsysguy the sorting?
15:25 wizzyrea yes
15:25 libsysguy i have no objections
15:25 libsysguy but I don't really use reports all that much
15:26 libsysguy would it be possible to variable-ize it in a drop down
15:26 wizzyrea all columns are sortable
15:26 wizzyrea it just makes me crazy to have to click on ID every time
15:26 libsysguy gotcha...so just changing the default
15:26 wizzyrea right
15:27 libsysguy wouldn't hurt my feelings so much...but like i said...im not a power user there
15:27 * wizzyrea will think about it
15:27 wizzyrea (someone probably explicitly chose the numeric by author explicitly)
15:28 wizzyrea do you think I could use the word explicitly any more?
15:28 * wizzyrea sighs
15:28 wizzyrea I blame the snot.
15:28 libsysguy eww snot?
15:28 libsysguy gross wizzyrea
15:28 oleonard Let it never be said that wizzyrea is not explicit.
15:28 wizzyrea summer cold. :(
15:28 * wizzyrea giggles
15:28 oleonard wizzyrea: That's a back-to-school cold.
15:29 wizzyrea oleonard: ah, is that what that is?
15:29 wizzyrea I take it you have experience
15:29 oleonard Back to school is one big germ orgy. It's horrible to behold.
15:29 wizzyrea "germ orgy"
15:29 libsysguy yeah I will contest to that
15:30 wizzyrea that's a fabulous mental image.
15:30 libsysguy i guess that is slightly different when you get to college
15:30 * libsysguy shall not say any more about that
15:30 wizzyrea O.o
15:30 libsysguy hehe
15:30 wizzyrea I won't even ask what kind of germs you are passing around.
15:31 libsysguy not me...what do you think i go to texas tech or something

16:05 sekjal anyone here have an opinion on the value of Rebarcoding Tool for Koha?
16:05 wizzyrea explain
16:05 wizzyrea what does it do exactly
16:05 sekjal a tool for making the rebarcoding of items as easy as possible
16:06 wizzyrea so say, scan a barcode, scan the new barcode, done
16:06 wizzyrea sort of thing
16:06 sekjal imagine a collection of 20,000 items, needing to go from 6-digit barcodes to 14-digit (so they could join the state system, say)
16:06 sekjal wizzyrea:  exactly that workflow, yes
16:06 wizzyrea I love it.
16:07 wizzyrea it has relatively limited usefulness for day to day
16:07 wizzyrea but when you need it
16:07 wizzyrea boy
16:07 wizzyrea it'd be handy
16:07 sekjal and ideally it would be something that could eventually be made mobile and linked to a smartphone's barcode scanner app
16:08 LBA left #koha
16:08 wizzyrea or at least the page it's on would be extremely mobile friendly
16:09 sekjal it doesn't strike me as a terribly hard thing to write
16:10 sekjal permissions control and security would be the trickiest part, I reckon
16:10 wizzyrea well no

18:10 cait the mail you replied to - hard to tell from the description ther eif that's really the problem with it

19:14 talljoy when running the bukmarcimport for authority records, what is best field to use for matching authority records?  010 (library of congress control number)
19:14 aarkerio hi! somebody knows if Koha support National Library of Medicine (NLM) Classification Scheme  ?
19:15 indradg rangi, the systems have been deployed at 170 town libs... we are in the middle of an OS refresh, and I'm trying to convince an upgrade to 3.4 from 3.2.6
19:17 indradg rangi, i didn't submit any "paper" for the KohaCon CfP, will be sharing the inputs during BoFs I'm sure.
19:18 cait aarkerio: you can catalog the field in marc21 - but I am not sure if it shows up in detail screens. It shows in isbd afaik
19:18 cait aarkerio: having authorities for it should be possible by creating a new framework and linking it to the field
19:18 indradg this project has taught us a lot... the real stumbling blocks in a 100% FS deployment
19:19 rangi *nod*
19:19 rangi 170 is no small number
19:22 rangi indradg: we got told that 'deploying koha to 25 libraries in nz would be too big for koha'
19:22 rangi so id love to point them at something saying look, heres 170
19:22 rangi stop talking rubbish :)

19:28 aarkerio this is still a validate page?
19:28 aarkerio http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd060.html
19:35 talljoy aarkerio: It is still valid if the LOC has it in the files.  I have not seen it in use in the libraries I
19:35 talljoy I've seen.  You may try email the list to see if anyone else is using it.
19:36 talljoy http://www.oclc.org/bibformats/en/0xx/  OCLC also show that as a field in the marc record.

19:46 rangi not me
19:46 talljoy perl ~/kohaclone/misc/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl -a -file GODDALL.279 -match='010,a' -v results in:
19:46 cait I think we use the other scripts, for staged marc import
19:46 cait so no
19:47 rangi I do that from the stage marc records

19:59 Brooke oh that's interesting. They are available from the details screen...
19:59 wizzyrea *nod* I was noting that
19:59 rangi yep
20:00 aarkerio this is the item: http://mononeurona.org/img/img[…]aarkerio_2271.png
20:00 rangi which means its most like an indexing thing
20:00 rangi make sure you are running zebra
20:00 aarkerio Koha version:3.04.02.000
20:00 wizzyrea well it brought back results
20:00 rangi yes
20:00 rangi so does nozebra
20:00 rangi but not items
20:01 wizzyrea but right, if zebra isn't running it wouldn't catch it if he added items after the initial index
20:01 rangi or if using nozebra then it never will
20:01 wizzyrea aarkerio: are you running in nozebra?
20:01 wizzyrea aside, I thought we took away that option
20:02 wizzyrea for new installs.
20:02 Brooke (It's nearly dead.)
20:02 rangi we did, but if u upgraded
20:02 rangi or went in sysprefs
20:03 rangi but my guess is either the cronjob isn't running or nozebra mode
20:03 aarkerio No I running Zebra, I have one item and is listed in search
20:03 rangi oh oh

20:04 cait hi hguewmLibrarian
20:05 hguewmLibrarian So i'm trying to hunt down records that have NULL for item type; because they're avoiding the overdue trigger. Is there an easy way to do this?
20:05 hguewmLibrarian hey cait!
20:05 cait :)
20:05 cait I would try a custom report
20:05 rangi aarkerio: do you have xslt switched on?
20:06 wizzyrea http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]ry#Null_Item_Type
20:06 wizzyrea try that report hguewmLibrarian
20:06 cait :)
20:06 hguewmLibrarian okie dokie!
20:06 wizzyrea you know how to add a report from sql right?
20:07 aarkerio rangi, thanks for your help, wher can I if check XSLT is off?
20:07 rangi in systempreferences in opac tab
20:07 hguewmLibrarian yup, most definitely Wizzy
20:07 wizzyrea awesomesauce
20:07 rangi if changing that fixes it, I think its a index problem
20:08 rangi so try a full reindex
20:08 aarkerio DisplayOPACiconsXSLT = Show
20:10 rangi ok my stop
20:10 rangi bbiab
20:10 hguewmLibrarian so.. I add it, run it and get blank table. I'm betting it's whitespace error....
20:11 wizzyrea XSLTResultsDisplay is what you're looking for aarkerio
20:11 cait have yo changed the items.homebranch bit?
20:11 wizzyrea if it's on "using XSLT stylesheets" change it to "normal"
20:11 cait hguewmLibrarian:  AND items.homebranch='LIBRARY'?
20:12 hguewmLibrarian ? nope... can it be ANY?
20:12 wizzyrea OPACXSLT i mean
20:12 aarkerio Works!!  this thing is great!
20:12 wizzyrea no, just get rid of that bit
20:12 aarkerio thanks guys!
20:12 wizzyrea yw aarkerio
20:12 wizzyrea but seriously, reindex :P
20:12 cait hguewmLibrarian: what wizzyrea said - delete it if you don't want to run it for a specific library
20:13 hguewmLibrarian yup yup! geniuses!
20:13 hguewmLibrarian it works now

20:14 wizzyrea no foggy mountains in kansas, silly.
20:14 hguewmLibrarian no... this grasshopper has many many more lessons before guru status
20:14 cait retreat in a field of sunflowers?
20:14 wizzyrea see, cait knows. :)

20:15 hguewmLibrarian ah... true kansas ninja can run/hide in cornfield w/o getting a scratch!

20:15 hguewmLibrarian how about.. without detection!
20:15 pelletiermaxime Has someone ever changed the value of an existing branches.branchcode ? Trying to look at what it would break
20:15 cait I have.. but it's not nice
20:16 cait you might be better off creating a new branch and changing the items to use that, but means creating new rules and everything too
20:16 wizzyrea this is as close to foggy mountains as you'll get in kansas: http://www.prairiepathways.com[…]_and_fence_bw.jpg
20:17 cait nice pic!

20:17 pelletiermaxime sure wish there was a simple int pk in that table :/
20:17 hguewmLibrarian OK followup Question: Is there a simple way change the item types of these records to BK (Book)?
20:18 wizzyrea yep
20:18 wizzyrea you can use the batch edit
20:18 hguewmLibrarian enlighten me oh wise one
20:18 hguewmLibrarian what is this batch edit thou dost speak
20:18 cait pelletiermaxime: why do you need to change it?
20:18 wizzyrea more -> tools -> batch idem modification
20:18 cait pelletiermaxime: an int pk would make sql queries harder
20:18 wizzyrea idem? sheesh
20:19 wizzyrea item*
20:19 pelletiermaxime cait: because the client is asking to change it :/
20:19 cait that's why we don't let our customers select their branchcodes
20:19 cait we use their ISIL
20:19 hguewmLibrarian okie -> what now?
20:20 wizzyrea so now
20:20 wizzyrea you can modify your report to pull only barcodes
20:20 cait hguewmLibrarian: I think you might want to get a barcode list with the report first
20:20 wizzyrea and save them to a file, one on each line
20:20 wizzyrea or paste them into the box, one on each line
20:20 wizzyrea then click continue
20:20 cait pelletiermaxime: is the library already in production?
20:20 hguewmLibrarian *sifting*
20:20 pelletiermaxime cait: yes
20:21 slef yo pelletiermaxime catch you later :)
20:21 * slef goes to dinner
20:21 cait in theory, you need to change at least: branches, items, issuingrules, perhaps issues/reserves, ...
20:21 slef slef?
20:21 wahanui you are a proponent of all things cooperative
20:21 slef heh
20:21 cait the only time I did it was for a library not having checked out anything yet
20:22 cait we got a space before the branchcode accidently, which caused lots of problems
20:22 wizzyrea report like this hguewmLibrarian:   SELECT  items.barcode
20:22 wizzyrea FROM items
20:22 wizzyrea WHERE items.itype IS NULL
20:22 pelletiermaxime cait: ok, thanks for the help. I'm going to try as hard as I can to tell them it's not a good idea :P
20:22 wizzyrea oops, sorry
20:22 cait pelletiermaxime: possible is everything, but I think it's probably easy to miss something here
20:22 wizzyrea make that SELECT  items.barcode FROM items WHERE items.itype IS NULL
20:22 wizzyrea should spit them all out for you
20:23 rangi pelletiermaxime: the places likely to be missed, that arent foreign keyed would be accountlines and statistics
20:23 rangi its doable, but like people have said, could be messy
20:23 * hguewmLibrarian modified the first one to show the barcodes... but yeah gonna use the second solution
20:24 wizzyrea I think if you save the output of the report as tab, you can use that as your barcode file
20:24 wizzyrea (but I've never tried it)
20:24 rangi so aarkerio is from mexico, where is mr brunk from i wonder?
20:25 cait or download open in excel and copy/paste
20:25 wizzyrea ^^
20:25 hguewmLibrarian senor brunk aprendi espanol en las calles de un pequeno ciudad nombrado chicago
20:25 rangi s/excel/[libreoffice|gnumeric]/
20:25 cait ah sorry
20:25 rangi :)
20:26 hguewmLibrarian does that help rangi?
20:27 * wizzyrea thinks of excel like fridge - the originally corporate name for the now generic construct of "spreadsheet program"
20:27 hguewmLibrarian mi ortografia y gramatica, pues no merece buenas marcas
20:27 magnus_afk is now known as magnus_away
20:27 rangi hguewmLibrarian: nope, cos im from nz and speak maori and english, no espanol :)
20:27 Brooke He's from Chitown
20:27 rangi but i got the chicago bit
20:28 Brooke get us da sausage!
20:28 wizzyrea and the pizza.
20:28 hguewmLibrarian i learned spanish on the streets
20:28 * wizzyrea demands pizza.
20:28 Brooke dude
20:28 wizzyrea i tease.
20:28 Brooke you go to Champaign for Pizza.
20:28 hguewmLibrarian even after a bachelors in spanish, they couldn't fix my grammar
20:28 wizzyrea whatevs.
20:28 Brooke I will learn you pizza!
20:29 wizzyrea i'm not uh, perhaps as much of a pizza connisseur as you.
20:29 hguewmLibrarian pizza the hutt!
20:29 hguewmLibrarian maybe a cat named pizza
20:29 wizzyrea i like cheese, does that count?
20:29 wizzyrea ^.^
20:29 cait hm
20:29 aarkerio when I am capturing  ISBN is better 84-7903-706-7 or 8479037067  ?
20:29 cait need some help: Several letters where generated if a borrower had overdues with different due_date triggering the same level
20:29 wizzyrea no dashes is better
20:29 rangi the later
20:29 wahanui hmmm... the later is better
20:29 rangi latter even
20:30 aarkerio cool!
20:30 cait how could 2 iems with different due dates trigger the same notice level?
20:30 wizzyrea different dates but in the same range?
20:30 * hguewmLibrarian bows to koha ninja gurus
20:30 cait oh
20:30 wizzyrea for notice?
20:30 hguewmLibrarian works like magic!
20:30 rangi cait: that was part of the bug
20:30 cait not using triggered perhaps?
20:31 wizzyrea what's the number again?
20:31 cait there is no range actually
20:31 rangi it used to just use the latest one
20:31 cait but 6292
20:31 cait which is wat is confusing me
20:31 cait rangi: I know - I complained about that often enough :)
20:31 Brooke bug 6292
20:31 talljoy_away is now known as talljoy
20:31 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6292 critical, PATCH-Sent, ---, chris, ASSIGNED , Overdue notices have a bug when multiple overdues exist
20:31 rangi :)
20:31 rangi so much that i fixed it
20:31 cait I am trying to figure out how to test the lates fix from sophie
20:31 rangi the squeaky wheel and all that
20:32 cait you call a squeaky wheel?
20:32 cait and I thought one of your libraries complained about it too... :)
20:32 rangi its a saying
20:32 rangi 'a squeaky wheel gets the grease'
20:32 rangi yep plant and food complained
20:33 cait plant_and_food++
20:33 cait ok, back to my problem
20:33 cait I don't understand the case sophie is trying to fix
20:33 wizzyrea ok wait, is her latest patch saying that a member won't get 2 notices if they have 2 overdue items that are not on the same date? I thought that was desired behavior, one notice for each overdue item
20:33 cait because items with different due dates can't be in the same range
20:33 cait because we have a one day range with notice triggers
20:34 rangi yeah,
20:34 rangi im puzzled too
20:34 cait hehe
20:34 rangi sorry, i shoulda read it more
20:34 wizzyrea i'm so confused.
20:34 hguewmLibrarian sweet! i answered my own question!
20:34 hguewmLibrarian i forgot to account for a graceperiod
20:35 wizzyrea what's the rank below "ninja guru"
20:35 hguewmLibrarian much thanks again
20:35 hguewmLibrarian toadstool?
20:35 Brooke figgerinityerself++
20:35 wizzyrea uh
20:35 wizzyrea lol
20:35 talljoy i step out for a few minutes and koha goes to town.  :)
20:35 Brooke shhhhh
20:35 wizzyrea the party always starts when rangi gets here
20:35 rangi oh thats right
20:35 Brooke u guise, she's back.
20:35 wizzyrea and brooke
20:35 rangi i was gonna look up somethign for talljoy
20:35 aarkerio BTW, why when I am capturing a title must end with  "/"
20:35 talljoy yes, please.
20:36 wizzyrea that's ISBD punctuation
20:36 talljoy bulkmarcimport for authorities and matching!
20:36 rangi talljoy: master branch?
20:36 talljoy yes
20:36 talljoy always.  ;-)
20:36 * hguewmLibrarian poofs
20:36 rangi looking now
20:36 hguewmLibrarian left #koha
20:37 cait aarkerio: there is not really a reasonable reason for it. it's in the standard...
20:37 sekjal that latest patch on 6292 looks wrong
20:37 Brooke the answer is always cataloguers were potty trained at gunpoint.
20:38 rangi thanks sekjal
20:38 aarkerio I see when I import from Lib Congress auotmatically set "/" after title in MARC
20:38 sekjal it's adding a new value in the select in one part, but then removing that value in the fetchrow
20:38 sekjal err, no
20:38 sekjal my bad
20:39 sekjal but I still don't understand what it's supposed to accomplish
20:39 cait rangi: left a commenton the bug
20:39 sekjal perhaps it only works without the -t flag?
20:39 rangi thanks people
20:40 cait sekjal: I think that might be it - but without -t - are there levels?
20:40 sekjal cait:  not sure, we always run with -t
20:40 cait I thought you give it only a min max and it will output everything in there
20:41 cait yep, we do that too
20:42 rangi talljoy have you tried -match=010a
20:42 rangi without the '' or ,
20:42 talljoy yes
20:43 cait sekjal: I am really looking to see that fix go in, it's really hard to explain the current behaviour to the libraries
20:43 talljoy .Use of uninitialized value $recorddata in pattern match (m//) at /home/load07/kohaclone/misc/mig​ration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl line 392, <GEN15> line 1.
20:43 talljoy unable to search the database for duplicates : No query entered at /home/load07/kohaclone/misc/mig​ration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl line 217, <GEN15> line 1.
20:43 cait sekjal: and if someone could make the notice triggers follow the calendar.. it would be even better :)
20:44 sekjal cait:  as libsysguy was saying on list, the whole system needs an overhaul
20:44 cait I agree
20:44 cait but overhauls take time
20:44 sekjal very true
20:44 rangi hmmm
20:45 sekjal it's one of the things I'd like to define Koha 4.0
20:45 cait uhoh rangi is hmming
20:45 cait new accounts will be a good first step
20:45 cait because fines are also involved in that
20:45 rangi i have to go read some perl doc
20:47 libsysguy oh hey my name came up
20:47 libsysguy yeah I started the wiki for that but it is in some desperate need of formatting
20:48 Brooke did someone say wiki jiggering?
20:48 wizzyrea uhoh rangi?
20:48 wahanui somebody said uhoh rangi was hmming
20:48 wizzyrea LOL
20:49 rangi right the pod is wrong
20:50 rangi you have to pass it an index
20:50 rangi matchindex,fieldtomatch
20:51 talljoy i couldn't figure out what it was asking me for there.
20:51 Brooke left #koha
20:51 talljoy what is it considering a 'matchindex'?
20:51 rangi so whats the index on 010 i wonder
20:51 rangi lemme look
20:51 sekjal shouldn't bulkmarcimport just use matching rules?
20:51 rangi it should
20:51 sekjal that would be much more robust
20:51 rangi it doesnt
20:51 sekjal well..... it should!
20:51 rangi which is why i use stage marc import
20:51 * sekjal pouts
20:52 sekjal sorry, long day
20:52 cait talljoy: the name of the zebraindex
20:52 wizzyrea he's so cute when he does that.
20:52 cait hehe
20:52 cait never seen him oding it before, but yes
20:52 cait sekjal: I know how you feel
20:52 wizzyrea stick your lip out like that and a little birdie will come along and poo on it!
20:52 rangi LC-card-number
20:53 rangi looks like it
20:53 rangi try
20:53 wizzyrea did you laugh? tell me you laughed.
20:53 rangi LC-card-number,010
20:54 * sekjal is trying to do a serials migration when there is no reliable mapping from old biblio ID to new
20:54 sekjal laughter is a ways off
20:54 cait libsysguy: I am interested in talking about the notification rfc - I have lots of complaints about the way thinks are currently
20:54 wizzyrea :(
20:54 talljoy ok...let me fire that up.
20:55 talljoy rangi: it likes that much better.  it is chugging along through the file now.
20:55 talljoy thanks!
20:56 hilongo joined #koha
20:56 sekjal okay, gtg.  probably back later
20:56 hilongo Hello #koha :)
20:56 sekjal left #koha
20:57 rangi hiya hilongo
20:58 hilongo how's the channel doing  ;)
20:58 hilongo I have a small question ...
20:58 larryb left #koha
20:59 rangi larry didnt want to hear it
21:00 wizzyrea lulz
21:00 wizzyrea east coast quittin' time
21:00 hilongo Is there a way to autofill a MARC field upon saving the record?  Explain: We would like to autogenerate the 001 field's value with the biblionumber
21:00 wizzyrea @quote get 123
21:00 huginn wizzyrea: Quote #123: "rangi: #thingsihavelearnt if there is a mad scheme a library somewhere will be doing it ... except madder" (added by wizzyrea at 09:20 PM, March 30, 2011)
21:00 * wizzyrea nods
21:01 rangi you could write a plugin, like we have for leader and 007 etc
21:01 hguewmLibrarian joined #koha
21:01 hguewmLibrarian left #koha
21:02 hilongo yeah .. I thought that ... but when you create a biblio... there is no biblionumber to assign yet...
21:02 libsysguy cait we are too
21:02 rangi true good point
21:02 rangi youd have to hack at the save code then
21:02 libsysguy I just don't know how to meet about it...first timer on big project development
21:02 hilongo so it should be activated upon saving the record
21:02 libsysguy with a distributed group
21:03 rangi libsysguy: call a meeting time on the mailing list, say 2pm such and such on irc to talk about blah
21:03 cait we could have an irc meeting
21:03 cait but perhaps cleaning up the wiki page would be a good start too
21:03 cait going to take a look at it now
21:04 rangi hilongo: you'd need to do it with a systemprefernce, so you could upstream it, otherwise youd have to keep remaking the change
21:04 libsysguy eek cait don't make fun
21:04 cait libsysguy: do you see the way fines are calculated as part of the notification system?
21:04 libsysguy i see the fines script
21:04 cait make fun about ?
21:04 libsysguy the wiki rfc page
21:05 wizzyrea I think he's afraid that you'll make fun of him for some self-perceived weakness in his wiki skills
21:05 libsysguy ^^
21:05 indradg left #koha
21:05 * wizzyrea pats libsysguy
21:05 wizzyrea cait is gentle and sweet.
21:05 * libsysguy sobs quietly
21:05 cait oh
21:05 cait no never
21:05 cait not as long as we are using mediawiki
21:06 wizzyrea see :)
21:06 cait I will never get the syntax of that
21:06 cait have to look up everything
21:06 libsysguy haha
21:06 * cait sends libsysguy a cookie
21:06 wizzyrea she also has cookies.
21:07 * libsysguy loves cookies
21:07 cait virtual cookies, practically no calories ;)
21:08 Agent_Dani Mmm, cookies
21:08 libsysguy most excellent
21:08 * cait puts a bowl of cookies in the middle of #koha
21:08 * libsysguy is dating a Swede who makes him not eat sweets
21:08 libsysguy cait: http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]Notifications_RFC
21:08 cait oh
21:09 libsysguy got it formatted...kind of
21:09 cait libsysguy: I am in there already
21:09 cait had to look up how to do bullet lists...
21:09 cait again
21:09 libsysguy oh haha i already cleaned it up
21:09 cait oh
21:09 libsysguy or was that you
21:09 cait now you took my evening fun away
21:09 libsysguy aww im sorry
21:09 libsysguy fwiw i had to look it up too
21:09 libsysguy im just a pretty quick typist
21:09 cait I got distracted :)
21:09 wizzyrea * for unordered list
21:09 wizzyrea # for numbered
21:09 wizzyrea :P
21:10 libsysguy hehe
21:10 libsysguy ** for more indentions
21:10 cait yep, but it's space * in dokuwiki
21:10 wizzyrea ^^
21:10 cait or even space space
21:10 wizzyrea mhm
21:10 * Agent_Dani gives cait a shiny thing to distract.
21:10 wizzyrea i did a bit of wording cleanup on
21:10 wizzyrea version control using git?
21:10 wahanui well, version control using git is at http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]Control_Using_Git
21:10 libsysguy reminds me of that programming language you write in white space
21:10 cait oh shiny!
21:10 wizzyrea it's functionally the same
21:11 cait brainf**?
21:11 wizzyrea it was just bugging m
21:11 wizzyrea me
21:11 wizzyrea the headings made no sense
21:11 aarkerio hi! If I have a Bibtex file, How can I import it in Koha?
21:11 cait hm you can#t currently
21:11 cait you have to convert it to marc
21:12 aarkerio I have this book:
21:12 aarkerio http://books.google.com/books/[…]l?id=uvvmAAAACAAJ
21:13 aarkerio and I see google gives the option to "Export Citation" in three formats: Bibtex, Endnote, and RefMaN
21:13 aarkerio what is the best option?
21:14 cait I think I would try getting it from a z39.50 server
21:14 cait searching by title or isbn
21:16 aarkerio no, is not in Congress Library
21:17 cait libsysguy: i added one point to your rfc
21:19 yhager joined #koha
21:20 yhager I rebooted my machine and now zebrasrv is not running, and I forgot the command line. Can anyone point me to where to find it?
21:20 cait /etc/init.d/koha-zebra... something start
21:21 yhager cait: no such ini file here
21:21 cait hm
21:22 cait i think you have to put it there during installation
21:22 yhager cait: can you just tell me how to run it for now, I'll build the startup script later?
21:23 cait can someone else perhaps? not sure how to do it
21:23 cait getting late here - good night all :)
21:23 yhager cait: run: ps auwx|grep zebra
21:23 hilongo left #koha
21:24 wizzyrea yhager it should be in the install.debian file
21:24 wizzyrea in your koha directory
21:24 wizzyrea how to do that
21:25 yhager wizzyrea: found it, thanks
21:25 wizzyrea yw :)
21:25 yhager I should really add a startup script though. (I am using the Archlinux package I built myself..)

21:28 wahanui cait is probably kf or a programmer or really sweet or a source of great chocolate or the purveyor of an infinite supply of virtual cookies or not sure we need the page(s)... but that might just be me
21:28 wizzyrea kf?
21:28 wahanui rumour has it kf is cait or really, really sweet. or <reply>she gives me memory loss

21:30 talljoy lol
21:30 wizzyrea go cait go!
21:30 rangi yeah, i have about 70% success with it
21:30 talljoy i need to try it.
21:30 cait left #koha
21:30 talljoy i have a comfy test environment to run it in.
21:30 wizzyrea "comfy"
21:30 talljoy i promise not to blow up client's production system with it.
21:30 talljoy comfy for data.
21:30 rangi misc/link_bibs_to_authorities.pl
21:31 talljoy do i need to worry about reindexing before running that?
21:31 rangi yes
21:31 talljoy best options for bibs?  -a -r -x -v?
21:31 talljoy no x?
21:31 rangi no x for -a
21:31 libsysguy wizzyrea how do you do a "next time x comes on the irc send them this"
21:31 talljoy awesome.  thx
21:31 rangi you have reindexed your biblios too eh?
21:32 talljoy i will
21:32 rangi you want both indexes up to date
21:32 wizzyrea @later tell whoever what you want to tell them
21:32 huginn wizzyrea: The operation succeeded.
