00:50 dcook Does anyone know if BSort1 is actually connected in any way to anything?
01:05 * dcook takes back his question
01:05 dcook Since Sort 1 and Sort 2 show as empty text fields when there is nothing defined in the BSort1 or BSort2 fields, I never realized that they were actually connected!
01:06 dcook And that drop-downs would be created if BSort1 and BSort2 were actually defined!
01:06 dcook ^_^

06:53 ala_3v0 I have this koha software error message when launching the staff interface from browser:

06:53 ala_3v0 that is part of it
06:53 ala_3v0 can anyone help
06:56 rangi Does the early part say something about can't open koha-conf.xml ?
06:57 rangi Chances are it's file permissions if so

07:27 gaetan_B hello :)
07:29 rangi hi kf mveron and gaetan_B
07:29 mveron hi rangi
07:29 kf please programmers, don't be too clever when constructing sentences in your templates... *sigh* (directed to noone special)
07:30 rangi untranslatable strings?
07:30 kf no
07:30 rangi actually thats a good rule in general, don't try and be too clever
07:30 kf sentences puzzled together with if constructs
07:30 rangi be it in templates or in code
07:31 rangi readable code > clever code
07:32 * kf nods
07:32 hdl joined #koha
07:34 * mveron nods as well
07:36 * mbalmer suppresses a comment about "readable" and "Perl"...
07:37 * kf suppresses a comment about how you can write unreadable bad code in every language...
07:42 * mbalmer points at http://www.ioccc.org/
07:45 * mveron will file a bug to have better translatable text in: koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/tools
07:48 kf mveron++
07:49 mveron And the file name:  koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/​modules/tools/picture-upload.tt

08:05 kf hm you could put it in i18n or templates
08:05 julian_m joined #koha
08:05 mveron kf: Ok switched it to templates
08:06 kf translate.koha... would be more used for a problem with pootle I think :)

10:10 eythian mveron: that's for that signoff on the stars things - it's a hard bug to reproduce sometimes.

10:31 drojf good day #koha
10:32 rangi hi drojf
10:33 drojf hey rangi
10:34 * gaetan_B is again looking for a high res version of the koha logo...
10:39 gaetan_B don't we have a more recent and better version than this one ? : http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]ack-and-white.jpg
10:41 gaetan_B i thought the tagline was more like  'open-source integrated library system'
10:41 rangi we have both
10:42 rangi and thats only one of the logos
10:42 drojf from june 17:
10:42 drojf (11:50:02) mbalmer: I was asking slef about the availability of a vectorized Koha logo.
10:42 drojf (11:50:23) slef: We will have one used on our banners and will publish it as soon as we've paid the designer.
10:42 drojf (11:50:53) slef: I think there may be an earlier one around, used on Calyx's banner, but I need to email Irma to ask.
10:44 gaetan_B rangi: hmmm, where are ther other ones ?
10:44 rangi i dont know
10:44 gaetan_B oh ok :D
10:44 rangi youd have to ask the people who hijacked the domain
10:44 gaetan_B i have to blame myself to some extent though
10:45 rangi because the were tifs on the old koha site
10:45 gaetan_B i did vectorize something a fex month back and i can't seem to find it again
10:45 gaetan_B *few
10:46 rangi ah ha!
10:46 rangi lucky im paranoid and backed that site up
10:46 rangi 5 mins ill put a copy of them all up for you
10:48 gaetan_B :)
10:50 rangi theres even an old freehand file there
10:52 rangi hmm 1500 .. we have a contestant in this
10:52 * rangi watches
10:58 * drojf is waiting for high res colour pictures of martians
11:02 * kf waves
11:02 mtompset joined #koha
11:02 mtompset Greetings, #koha.
11:04 gaetan_B thanks rangi, i'll use one of those to try and do a vectorized version
11:04 kf gaetan_B: perhaps mail slef and ask? he might have one available now :)
11:05 gaetan_B kf: that's a good point
11:05 gaetan_B hmmm kf what's his real name / email address ?
11:06 kf mj
11:06 mtompset irc regulars?
11:06 wahanui hmmm... irc regulars is at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/IRC_Regulars
11:06 kf it seems I forgot his last name
11:06 kf gaetan_B: look for mj on the mailing list :)
11:07 kf mj ray :)
11:08 drojf hi kf :)
11:08 mtompset If you wanted to change the font of h1#libraryname, how would you do it?
11:08 drojf mtompset: jquery maybe?
11:08 kf css?
11:08 wahanui well, css is probably easier
11:08 drojf probably ;)
11:09 mtompset Yes, I figured CSS.
11:09 kf but you know, fonts are not so easy
11:09 mtompset But for the life of me, I am dumbfounded.
11:09 kf you know that the font must be available on the computer viewing it?
11:09 mtompset The font on our webpage has reverted to the default, despite no CSS changes.
11:09 kf I think there are newer tricks around now, but haven't used one of those
11:09 kf which font did you use?
11:10 kf and did it really revert? are you looking at it from the same computer?
11:10 mtompset BlackJarRegular... it's not a normal font that is installed everywhere.
11:10 kf see...
11:10 mtompset Yes, it reverted.
11:10 kf you have it installed? did you install a newer version of your browser or changed the settings?
11:11 mtompset It works for my coworker.
11:11 kf ah
11:11 kf see
11:11 kf local
11:11 mtompset It stopped working for me.
11:11 kf I would say, font or browser settings
11:11 mtompset My co-worker is several hundred miles away.
11:11 mtompset He's never gone to the site before.
11:11 mtompset It stopped working for the users too.
11:14 mtompset Annoyingly, it's like the browser is loading the remote font, and then still decides to use default.
11:14 chinu joined #koha
11:14 mtompset And it's not a browser thing, because I tried under IE and Firefox, and cleared both caches.
11:14 chinu hello
11:14 wahanui what's up, chinu
11:14 kf I think if you want to use a special font, it's probably easier to use a picture instead
11:14 kf safer
11:14 chinu i need answer for a Q
11:15 chinu have u used opac search
11:15 chinu ?
11:15 chinu opac search?
11:15 wahanui i guess opac search is good working for english biblios. i think only problem for mongolian. when i search mongolian than wrong results.
11:16 chinu how it serches?
11:16 kf chinu: what is your problem?
11:16 chinu u know about deatil?
11:16 kf wahanui: forget opac search?
11:16 wahanui kf: I forgot opac search
11:16 kf chinu: sorry, I can't help you if you don't have a more specific quesion
11:17 kf can you describe your problem?
11:18 eythian https://twitter.com/Oatmeal/st[…]32352317603713024 <-- drojf
11:18 chinu while searching which data it matches with query
11:18 chinu ?
11:19 kf eythian: you are mean, now I will have nightmares again
11:19 kf chinu: I am sorry, I don't understand. where are you from?
11:19 drojf eythian: lol excellent
11:21 chinu about opac-search u know?
11:22 drojf chinu: please try to explain a) what you are trying to do b) what is not working for you
11:24 chinu I want learn the perl program who searches for given query
11:24 jwagner joined #koha
11:25 chinu I am from computer science
11:25 eythian chinu: then you start with opac-search.pl and trace through it until you get to Search.pm
11:25 eythian (then you stop because you've started drinking)
11:26 drojf and then you have enough
11:26 drojf heh
11:26 * mtompset laughs.
11:26 chinu ???
11:26 drojf you will understand once you looked at search.pm
11:26 chinu anybody from computer science?
11:27 eythian I have a masters degree in it...
11:28 kf ... and you don't dare to go into Search.pm?
11:28 eythian Nope.
11:28 eythian I just protest that computer science is all about the theory, not the implementation.
11:28 eythian And then go to the pub.
11:29 BobB hdl?
11:29 wahanui hdl is probably saying, who when where, how.
11:29 rangi http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]earch_Rewrite_RFC
11:29 eythian BobB: he's having lunch right now
11:29 BobB hi eythian, are you at Biblibre now?
11:29 eythian Oui.
11:30 BobB ah, bien
11:30 BobB @later tell HDL thanks!  I have let Irma know.
11:30 huginn BobB: The operation succeeded.

11:31 BobB eythian lunch must be good there.
11:31 BobB I like lunch.  :)
11:31 eythian it is good here
11:32 eythian kf: in answer to the question: North Maharashtra University, Jalgaon, India
11:32 kf oh

11:32 chinu how u get that I am from North Maharashtra university, Jalgaon, India?
11:33 eythian masters degree in computer science ;)
11:33 BobB LOL !
11:34 chinu really tell me how?
11:34 chinu eythian?
11:34 wahanui eythian is in NZ. ;) or a good influence
11:34 chinu kf?
11:34 wahanui i heard kf was cait or really, really sweet. or <reply>she gives me memory loss or a holds expert.
11:34 eythian http://youtu.be/hkDD03yeLnU <-- sorta like this
11:34 BobB shut up wahanui
11:35 eythian wahanui: shut up wahanui is <reply>$who is making me cry!
11:35 wahanui OK, eythian.
11:35 BobB shut up wahanui
11:35 wahanui BobB is making me cry!
11:36 hdl wahanui: forget hdl
11:36 wahanui hdl: I forgot hdl
11:36 BobB hi hdl
11:39 * mveron back from lunch
11:39 kf chinu: ip address I assume
11:39 mveron eythian: Thanks for the thanks above, welcome :-)
11:40 eythian kf: yep
11:40 nengard joined #koha
11:43 kf hi nengard
11:43 nengard hello
11:45 mbalmer hi nengard
11:46 mbalmer nengard, say, I am writing an article about Koha, may I use your group picture from edinbrugh as an illustration?  (magazine for swiss librarians)
11:46 nengard Of course you can.
11:50 mbalmer ok, many thanks!
11:54 mtompset Oh that was an overt demonstration of no knowledge on CSI's part.
11:59 mtompset Okay, perhaps cross site font downloads is the problem... let's try ....
12:03 mtompset Okay... so why don't cross-site font downloads work?
12:07 eythian probably something to do with security
12:08 eythian that's usually the reason cross-site <noun/verb> doesn't work
12:22 mtompset Their fonts! How can fonts be a security risk?
12:22 mtompset Do they have some evil pre-display hook?
12:26 oleonard joined #koha
12:27 eythian I think it's to prevent *ahem* <airquotes>stealing</airquotes> of fonts from other sites.
12:27 eythian If you set the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header, you can specify who is allowed to use them

13:04 tcohen hi mtompset
13:04 mtompset I'd look at my bugs list, but if I do that... I won't stop coding.
13:05 mveron joined #koha
13:05 oleonard Hm, so suspending a hold doesn't exclude it from showing up in the holds queue report? That seems like a pretty major failure.
13:08 oleonard Bug 8419
13:08 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8419 normal, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, Needs Signoff , Suspended holds appear on the daily holds queue
13:11 nengard oleonard bug 8412 is updated per your suggestions
13:11 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8412 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, nengard, Needs Signoff , add color icon set
13:12 jcamins nengard: is one of your libraries planning on using that? I don't think I've ever encountered a library willing to put that kind of time into noting the colors of books.
13:13 nengard jcamins nope, but I did read an article in a law library magazine about a library that does that
13:13 nengard and it doesn't really hurt anything to have the option there
13:13 jcamins No, it certainly doesn't.
13:13 nengard it is more likely to be used in a special library - law specifically - I think
13:14 nengard cause it's easy to bulk edit a bunch of items cause you know what color each series is :)
13:14 jcamins I was just amazed that someone was going to go back and retroactively fill all that out.
13:14 nengard I would be amazed if anyone did!
13:14 nengard in any way other than bulk editing
13:14 oleonard jcamins: This from the guy who added an option to allow libraries to scan and upload book covers ;)
13:15 * mtompset grins.
13:15 mtompset jcamins?
13:15 wahanui i guess jcamins is A-Grade developper on Koha willing to rewrite it from top to bottom. Good Luck jcamins
13:15 mtompset That is going to haunt you for a long time, jcamins. :)
13:16 jcamins oleonard: there doesn't tend to be a lot of retrospective photography to do, if you're using that feature.
13:17 kf hm color bulk update feature using lists of scanned barcodes? :)
13:18 oleonard Now, just write an image-recognition bot to load OPAC results, average the color from book cover images, and set the color that way
13:18 kf but that's the cover color, not the spine color...
13:18 jcamins Or you have a digitization grant, I suppose.
13:18 jcamins However, I had forgotten how monotonous the colors of law books are... you have entire shelves that are all red or all green or the like.

13:26 eythian hey SQL people, why would these two queries give a different number of rows: http://paste.koha-community.org/73 and http://paste.koha-community.org/74 -- the only difference is the fields to select.
13:27 * mveron is about to sign-off Bug 5349 with 2 patches, but is stuck with the steps on http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]_bz_configuration

13:28 kf mveron: what is the problem? :)
13:28 mveron git rebase 1stcommitid^ --interactive   What is this id?
13:29 kf ah
13:29 kf if you do git log
13:29 jcamins eythian: I have no idea.
13:29 kf the unreadable part
13:29 eythian jcamins: one gives 56, the other 106 (on the db I'm testing)
13:30 eythian I consider 56 to be the correct answer.
13:31 kf may I ask what it is you are trying to do?
13:31 mveron kf: Ok, I see some IDs...  Reading helps. Reaing unreadable parts helps as well  :-)
13:31 kf mveron: I was trying to find an example for you :)
13:31 kf didn't know how to describe it better
13:32 kf eythian: why all the unions?
13:32 eythian kf: to include the deleteditems and deletedbiblios
13:32 kf hmm
13:38 libsysguy joined #koha
13:39 kf eythian: don't know why different results :(
13:41 eythian hmm, the longer ones appear to include duplicates from somewhere...
13:44 jwagner eythian, I think you're confusing it by trying to include biblionumber inside the union.
13:46 eythian the catch is, the real query has a ton of fields and gives me even more rows
13:48 kf hm
13:48 kf have you tried adding some parentheses?
13:50 NateC joined #koha
13:52 eythian kf: no difference
13:52 kf yeah
13:52 kf I see the same in my database
13:52 kf using a different borrowernumer of course.
13:52 kf hmm.
13:53 kf hm
13:54 kf you could try to compare the results for each union separately
13:54 kf see where the difference comes from

13:55 eythian > select itemnumber from items where itemnumber in (select itemnumber from deleteditems);
13:55 eythian 30 rows in set (0.95 sec)
13:55 eythian that should not be the case.
13:56 kf uhoh
13:56 kf probably if you delete the last max itemnumber it gets reassigned?
13:56 eythian and 7 for the deletedbiblio
13:57 eythian no, the incrementer should always just increment

13:57 jcamins That doesn't sound good at all.

13:58 kf thre goes my dream of undoing deletes in the near future...
14:03 mtompset Good day (24 hour period), #koha. MAybe tomorrow I'll get to work on Koha stuff.
14:04 mtompset That's why I don't really like autoincrementing fields myself, kf.

14:04 kf eythian: share if you find out what's happening? I am curious what's wrong with that sql
14:04 eythian kf: nothing, I think
14:05 eythian I think it's that the data is weird.
14:05 eythian going to do more science on it though
14:05 kf eythian: I have the same here... an dmy data isn't weird :)

14:29 tcohen hi #koha, is the cover image showing feature conditional to the existence of it?
14:30 tcohen i mena, we have a cover uploaded, will it still search for it in google (for example)
14:30 tcohen ?
14:30 oleonard Yes
14:31 oleonard If you have multiple image sources enabled Koha will try to show covers from each of them
14:35 kf1 joined #koha
14:36 tcohen oleonard, is that a bug or a feature?
14:36 tcohen http://ffyh.biblio.unc.edu.ar/[…]ialogo+filosofico
14:37 oleonard I consider it a bug. Bug 7187 I think matches
14:37 kf1 hm
14:37 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7187 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, kmkale, NEW , Prioritize cover image sources such as Amazon, Google and add fail over i.e. if first source fails, go to next
14:38 * jcamins agrees.
14:38 jcamins Definitely bug.
14:38 tcohen oleonard, thanks for pointing it
14:38 * jcamins is looking forward to kmkale's fixing of said bug.
14:38 oleonard jcamins: Do you know if kmkale has code in progress?
14:39 tcohen another question, would it be usefull to provide a daily circulation report on the circulation page?
14:39 jcamins oleonard: I do not.
14:39 tcohen i provided one to my librarians, and they are really missing it
14:39 oleonard tcohen: Someone tried something similar in Bug 6828
14:39 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6828 enhancement, PATCH-Sent (DO NOT USE), ---, barry, Failed QA , Add Admin Dashboard for staff users.
14:39 tcohen so i'd implement it anyway
14:40 tcohen (since we went live with 3.8 stock)
14:40 tcohen i'll look at those bugs
14:41 tcohen thanks
14:46 tcohen how would #koha propose to achieve that priority thing in bug 7187?
14:46 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7187 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, kmkale, NEW , Prioritize cover image sources such as Amazon, Google and add fail over i.e. if first source fails, go to next
14:46 tcohen a | separated list of values?
14:46 jcamins tcohen: that'd be my preference.
14:46 tcohen a new <Service>Weight preference for each cover-provider?
14:46 jcamins I'd prefer the single list.
14:47 tcohen any other vote?
14:47 tcohen (i find it error-prone, but can't think of better solutions)
14:50 tcohen two prefs? one to choose a default and another to set it to traverse the activated services or just use the default?
14:52 jcamins That would work too.
14:55 tcohen is it ok to change the bug to origin/master ?
14:56 jcamins Yes, it should be versioned against master.
14:56 tcohen done
14:57 tcohen time to study that code :-D
15:00 oleonard I wonder if Google's TOS forbids caching book cover images
15:07 tcohen a web proxy is doing it for sure
15:10 tcohen Prohibitions on Content:...
15:10 tcohen Scrape, build databases or otherwise create permanent copies of such content, or keep cached copies longer than permitted by the cache header;
15:11 tcohen (Google TOS)
15:11 oleonard Yeah, I think it's the same for Amazon
15:11 tcohen do we have a place on the wiki to paste links to this relevant info?
15:12 oleonard Without caching you have to run through each of your cover image sources every time... very time-consuming.
15:12 tcohen oleonard, it depends
15:12 tcohen on your infrastructure
15:13 tcohen if you are on a university and have a transparent proxy...
15:13 oleonard I'm talking about out-of-the-box Koha
15:13 tcohen I agree
15:13 oleonard We should design it to be as efficient as we can all by itself
15:14 tcohen cd op
15:14 tcohen hehe, missed the terminal
15:17 gaetan_B do i need specific permissions to upload an image to the wiki ?
15:18 oleonard gaetan_B: I don't think so. Are you having trouble?
15:19 gaetan_B i'm trying to upload a cleaned up and vectorized logo on the wiki
15:19 gaetan_B i probably just can't find the right tool :-/
15:20 oleonard gaetan_B: http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]ki/Special:Upload
15:20 gaetan_B aaah tanks oleonard :)
15:20 gaetan_B s/tanks/thanks
15:21 oleonard gaetan_B: I see that link in the left-hand sidebar down towards the bottom
15:21 gaetan_B yes, somehow all these links had been pushed all the way to the bottom of the page when i clicked "edit"
15:21 gaetan_B now i see them :)
15:24 tcohen OPACAmazonCoverImages pref is not used in opac-detail.pl?
15:25 gaetan_B aah but you can't upload svg files it seems... too bad
15:26 oleonard Weird. Maybe it's a configuration thing which could be changed?
15:27 oleonard "Allow upload of SVG files in the LocalSettings.php file: $wgFileExtensions[] = 'svg';"
15:28 oleonard http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/[…]_upload_of_images

17:24 Callender Has anyone seen a problem in 3.08 where when going into the Guided Report Wizard and creating a New Definition, Step 3 is a blank page? I notice that the "Current Terms" section doesn't display either on the dictionary screen
17:24 jcamins Callender: the guided report wizard doesn't work at all.
17:24 jcamins Don't use it.
17:24 jcamins We should probably remove it.
17:25 Callender ok
17:26 wizzyrea hm i'm not having a problem with that actually

17:27 wizzyrea what exact steps are you following?
17:28 wizzyrea the first question?
17:28 wahanui "What are you trying to do?"  "What is the goal?" or "What problem are you experiencing?"
17:28 wizzyrea the second question?
17:28 wahanui the second question is "What is the exact error message?"
17:28 wizzyrea the third question?
17:28 wahanui the third question is "What version of Koha are you using?" http://koha-community.org/faq/[…]ion-koha-running/
17:28 wizzyrea also, which version of 3.8?
17:29 Callender This one is, 3.08.00.001
17:29 wizzyrea ah, i'm looking at master
17:29 wizzyrea is an upgrade possible?
17:30 jcamins Yeah, using 3.8.0 is probably not such a good idea.
17:30 wizzyrea heh
17:30 wizzyrea that might be understatement ;)
17:30 jcamins wizzyrea: given that I feel doubtful about 3.8.3... yeah, it just might be.
17:30 wizzyrea 3.8.3 is pretty solid though
17:30 Callender Go to reports > Guided report wizard > View Dictionary > and at that point, I don't see the columns that should be there. If I go into create a new definition, getting to step 3.. just a blank screen.
17:31 wizzyrea WFM :)
17:31 Callender lets hold off then for me, I'll upgrade this system
17:31 wizzyrea cool beans :)
17:31 Callender and I'll see if that takes care of it

18:30 tcohen is it ok to require LIB ; import LIB
18:30 tcohen or is it better to use LIB ?
18:31 jcamins use LIB is generally better, I think.
18:31 tcohen i'm revisiting opac-detail.pl
18:31 tcohen and found both used
18:32 jcamins Hehe. I'm not surprised.
18:32 jcamins We prefer use.
18:32 jcamins Usually.
18:32 tcohen i think amazon and syndetics stuff should be loaded the same way bakertaylor stuff is
18:32 jcamins Agreed.
18:32 tcohen which checks for the syspref prior to loading the libs

19:28 nengard Do I need to say that the birthday limit is only checked if that field is mandatory?
19:28 oleonard Yes
19:28 nengard or recommend that the birthday be made required if you want Koha to enforce the age limit
19:29 nengard oops .. yes which?
19:29 oleonard It will only check the birthdate limit if the field is mandatory
19:29 nengard got it
19:29 nengard thanks!
19:29 cait oleonard: I don't like that much :(
19:30 cait but I know it was not you :)
19:30 oleonard cait: How would it handle empty birthdates if the field was not mandatory?
19:30 cait not check
19:31 cait so you coul give the birthdate for not adult patrons
19:31 cait but leave it empty for adult patrons
19:32 oleonard You'd have to create a new preference to define which categories of patrons should require age enforcement
19:32 nengard i'm with cait
19:32 nengard but understand why it was done this way
19:32 nengard and now the manual reflects that :)
19:32 cait oleonard: the problem is that I was told dates of birth are sensitive data - most of our libraries don't store it at all
19:33 nengard so you could just not store it and not use the upper or minimum age limites
19:33 cait yes

19:45 nengard i did report a bunch to calm her down
19:45 nengard mainly the lack of browse was a big deal
19:45 jcamins Ah, yeah, true browse is very problematic.
19:45 nengard the fact that you can't add an authority right from cataloging - you have to go out to authorities to create (unless you want Koha to create it for you based on what you type)
19:45 jcamins I didn't see that bug.
19:45 jcamins It's a duplicate.
19:46 jcamins I already implemented that. :P

19:56 jcamins Good.
19:56 jcamins You should.
19:57 rangi Hehe
19:57 rangi I like the photo of kahu though
19:59 jcamins Take out the Twitter updates a couple of the other sidebars?
19:59 cait I liked the really old one best
20:00 cait but the last one is way better than what you have now :)
20:00 * cait hides
20:00 rangi Hehe
20:00 rangi I'm not fragile, I can change it
20:01 oleonard Can/does Koha log what Koha user performs the transaction when checking something out?
20:01 rangi I'll switch when I get to work
20:01 jcamins oleonard: I think so. Isn't that circ log?
20:01 rangi Hmm I thought so
20:02 ago43 joined #koha
20:04 oleonard I have  IssueLog turned on, but when I check the modification log of a book which is checked out, I get nothing
20:04 jcamins Ummm...
20:04 rangi Hmm not modification log, it should be circ log
20:05 jcamins was there a bug about this recently?
20:05 jcamins I have a vague recollection.
20:05 rangi Changing numbers ... Not sure it was pushed tho
20:05 cait I know it does log it - ony not sure how to access from within koha
20:06 cait I used it to check which checkouts were done using the self check :)
20:06 rangi In the log viewer I think if you just view the circ log?
20:07 rangi The bug is it stores biblionumber not itemnumber
20:07 rangi Iirc
20:08 oleonard ...so it can't show the checkout history because biblionumber doesn't get you anything
20:08 rangi Yep
20:08 rangi But u can find it in the log
20:09 rangi You might want to try the patch
20:09 oleonard Do you know the bug?
20:09 wahanui it has been said that the bug is that if you scan the barcode on the circ page you aren't allowed to renew it that way
20:09 * rangi always looks for a signoff angle
20:10 rangi Not off the top of my head
20:10 jcamins Bug 7241.

20:10 jcamins Found it. :)
20:10 cait ah
20:10 cait you were faster :(

20:14 jcamins Why is that?
20:14 rangi I think he is on vacation too
20:14 cait oleonard: does it have built in airbags?
20:14 jcamins Test coverage was at 100%.
20:14 jcamins Then I fiddled with things.
20:14 cait jcamins: scandalous - go and write more tests!

20:26 ExtraordinaryBen Hello, I'm helping my Library get Koha setup as their new ILS. I've got it up and running, but it doesn't seem to be remembering anything. (Library is always not set, etc.) Any help would be appreciated. ;)
20:26 jcamins ExtraordinaryBen: you should never log in as the database administrative user.
20:26 cait ExtraordinaryBen: you need to create real staff accounts - don't work with the root user
20:27 cait to do that, create a branch, a patron category with category staff and add a new patron - and then give it permissions from more in the toolbar
20:27 ExtraordinaryBen Okay, awesome. many thanks. (Ugh, knew it must have been something simple.)

20:55 jcamins It seems to me that Net::ZOOM should have some unit tests.
20:55 * jcamins goes looking for them.
20:55 jcamins Or ZOOM.
20:55 jcamins Or whatever we use.
20:57 jcamins Well...
20:57 jcamins huh.
20:57 jcamins Was anyone else expecting the ZOOM test suite to pass?
20:58 rangi it fails on the connection to a test server, the test server is dead
20:58 rangi well thats what fialed for me last time
20:58 jcamins It's failing on scan.
20:59 jcamins Huh.
21:08 gmcharlt rangi: would I be correct in making a wild guess that 8181 is not a candidate for backporting to 3.8.x?

21:11 gmcharlt rangi: yeah, that's what I thought
21:15 jcamins Is there any way in Perl to create an object that will automagically create any accessors it is called with, and return the same thing?
21:15 jcamins (no matter what the accessor)
21:16 rangi im sure there is, but my brain is not telling me how
21:17 jcamins Yeah, my brain decided that was too much thinking, so we moved on to plan b.

21:25 jcamins Yeah. There's more needed, but that was the first thing I noticed.
21:33 rangi signed off
21:34 jcamins Okay...
21:35 jcamins Putting multiple packages in one file screws up Test::MockModule.
21:35 * jcamins wasn't expecting that.
21:36 rangi why would we do that?
21:36 rangi running out of filehandles? :)
21:38 jcamins We wouldn't.
21:38 jcamins IndexData would.
21:38 rangi ahhh
21:38 rangi maybe filehandles cost more in denmark
21:39 mgeist Have a good evening all

21:40 jcamins Okay, got around that issue.
21:41 jcamins ... for one brief, shining moment.
21:42 jcamins Wait.
21:42 jcamins I can do better than this.
21:43 jcamins How do you do a switch statement in Perl?
21:44 jcamins The non-deprecated, non-experimental way.
21:44 rangi i dont
21:44 jcamins Okay.
21:44 * jcamins continues writing his ifelse statement.
21:44 rangi but i think its given/when
21:45 rangi which was added in 5.10
21:45 jcamins No, that's experimental. There's another syntax which is allowed.

21:48 * jcamins figures out how to trick ZOOM into thinking it has Zebra.
21:48 rangi :)
21:49 jcamins Okay... this leaves one slight problem. How do I get the kohaclone directory from a test.
21:49 rangi hmm?
21:49 rangi config?
21:49 wahanui well, config is still wrong.
21:51 jcamins But that's presupposing that I have a koha-conf.xml.

22:53 rangi what version of koha, and have you set up your rules? and have the cron job running, and have the fines mode set to calculate and charge?
22:53 martian523 version 3.8.1
22:53 martian523 set up my rules,
22:53 martian523 not sure about cron job
22:54 martian523 btw, i'm not an IT person
22:54 rangi ah, how did you install?
22:54 rangi or how did your it person install, using the debian packages? or from the tarball?
22:54 martian523 yeah
22:54 martian523 debian
22:54 rangi from http://debian.koha-community.org/ ?
22:55 martian523 maybe
22:55 rangi you will need to know for sure, either way, your IT person needs to check the cron job for the fines is running
22:55 martian523 i just found out about the cron job for email notices since i haven't received any automatic email notices
22:55 rangi and you need to check in systempreferences
22:55 rangi to see what finesmode is set to
22:56 martian523 we're still in the testing process
22:56 rangi ah well they wont be charging unless you set them to :)
