is there any instruction for upgrading Koha 3.8 to 3.8.5 on Debian 6+ please |
| 13:04 |
|
mtompset |
Which kind of install did you do again, koyauni? |
| 13:04 |
|
mtompset |
packages, right? |
| 13:04 |
|
mtompset |
sudo apt-get install koha-common? |
| 13:05 |
|
mtompset |
3.8.5 packages haven't been released yet. |
| 13:07 |
|
mtompset |
My guess is the upgrade is pretty simple: sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade, go to the administrative interface, click through the upgrade process (if any) there, and then do a full reindex. If there are problems, check out bug 6566. |

There is no upgrade process in Admin page |
| 13:37 |
|
mtompset |
not admin page. the staff client. |
| 13:38 |
|
mtompset |
if you log in to the staff client and there is an web installer page, then you need to do the full reindex, and if you have problems look at the bug I mentioned. |

how would i check out 3.8.5 in git? |
| 17:10 |
|
mtj |
the same way you would get out 3.8.4 in git |
| 17:10 |
|
mtj |
git reset --hard TAG |
| 17:10 |
|
drojf |
i guess so… and how is that? :D i only ever checked out origin/master |
| 17:10 |
|
drojf |
cool, thanks |
| 17:11 |
|
mtj |
so... |
| 17:11 |
|
mtj |
$ git fetch --tag |
| 17:12 |
|
mtj |
$ git tag |
| 17:12 |
|
mtj |
git reset --hard v3.08.05 |
| 17:15 |
|
mtj |
before the git reset, i usually make a 3.8.5 branch, then change to it, then reset TAG |
| 17:15 |
|
drojf |
that's what i did now, thanks :) |
| 17:15 |
|
drojf |
mtj++ |
| 17:16 |
|
mtj |
then chery-pick patches from your master branch, of whatever you wanna do |
| 17:18 |
|
mtj |
the trick is… a TAG is just another name for a specific commit, in git |
| 17:18 |
|
mtj |
for me, understanding that made tags easy |
| 17:19 |
|
drojf |
yeah that makes sense |

|
jcamins_away |
ExtraordinaryBen: if you used packages, the packages should handle that for you. If you used a tarball, I still recommend that you use your user's crontab. |
| 19:36 |
|
jcamins_away |
ExtraordinaryBen: I wouldn't be able to help you with /etc/cron.d. |
| 19:36 |
|
jcamins_away |
I've been using Linux since my FreeBSD system died 6 years ago, and I have never had a use for /etc/cron.d. |
| 19:42 |
|
huginn |
ExtraordinaryBen: I'll give you the answer just as soon as RDA is ready |
| 19:46 |
|
jcamins_away |
ExtraordinaryBen: once per minute is too frequently. |
| 19:46 |
|
jcamins_away |
And you need to set KOHA_CONF and PERL5LIB in the crontab. |
| 19:46 |
|
mtj |
ExtraordinaryBen, just use the packages... |
| 19:46 |
|
jcamins_away |
There is an example.crontab somewhere. |
| 19:47 |
|
jcamins_away |
And, yes, packages are superior in every way. |
| 19:48 |
|
mtj |
having a problem configuring cron?, use the packages |
| 19:55 |
|
jcamins_away |
ExtraordinaryBen: easiest is probably just install the packages, create an instance, and then change the koha-conf.xml file for that instance to point to your current database.5D |
| 20:03 |
|
jcamins_away |
ExtraordinaryBen: oh, you're on PowerPC? |
| 20:03 |
|
jcamins_away |
You should have mentioned that... I just knew you were using Ubuntu or Debian per our recommendation. :P |
| 20:04 |

They're not, but you need a different line in the source.list file. |

^^ if you look for the apt line there, that'll tell you what to put in. |
| 20:06 |
|

We only have an amd64 system for building packages, so other architectures aren't built automatically, despite the fact that nothing is compiled. |

| 20:41 |

| 20:51 |

jcamins_away |
ExtraordinaryBen: there is a reason my nick is *_away* |
| 20:52 |
|
jcamins_away |
If you want guaranteed help on a Sunday, you may pay me. |
| 20:52 |
|
jcamins_away |
Otherwise, I will try and help amongst and in between those other things I am doing. |
| 20:59 |
|
jcamins_away |
ExtraordinaryBen: open up /etc/koha/sites/whatever/koha-conf.xml and change it so that the database name, user, and password (at the end) match your old config. |
| 20:59 |
|
jcamins_away |
No need to go through the whole web installer. |
| 21:03 |
|
jcamins_away |
ExtraordinaryBen: three things. |
| 21:04 |
|
jcamins_away |
1) disable the cron jobs you set up manually |
| 21:04 |
|
jcamins_away |
2) open the staff client to go through the upgrade database process. |
| 21:04 |
|
jcamins_away |
3) reindex by running `koha-rebuild-zebra --full instancename` |
| 21:04 |
|
jcamins_away |
Oh, one bonus thing: |
| 21:05 |
|
jcamins_away |
Disable the old site file. |
| 21:06 |
|
jcamins_away |
After doing a complete rebuild, the indexing will be done automatically. |
| 21:09 |
|
jcamins_away |
ExtraordinaryBen: it has to be run as root. It's suid. `sudo koha-rebuild-zebra --full instance` |
| 21:15 |
|
jcamins_away |
ExtraordinaryBen: what do you mean you dont' have an instancename setup? |
| 21:15 |
|
jcamins_away |
You must have set up an instance. |
| 21:16 |
|
jcamins_away |
It's whatever you called the instance. |
| 21:16 |
|
jcamins_away |
(koha-create whatever) |
| 21:17 |
|
jcamins_away |
No, that's not how it works. |
| 21:17 |
|
jcamins_away |
You must have run koha-create? |
| 21:18 |
|
jcamins_away |
If you didn't run koha-create, you're still using the tarball install. |
| 21:18 |
|
jcamins_away |
koha-create is only for packages. |
| 21:18 |
|
jcamins_away |
So all that did was update some files. |
| 21:18 |
|
jcamins_away |
packages? |
| 21:18 |
|
wahanui |
packages is at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian |
| 21:19 |
|
jcamins_away |
At some point you must have diverged from those directions. Could you tell me where? |
| 21:22 |
|
jcamins_away |
Ah. |
| 21:22 |
|
jcamins_away |
Yes, that would be a problem. |
| 21:23 |
|
jcamins_away |
(I mean, not a "oh no, your system is screwed up forever" problem, just a "well, that's a nuisance" problem) |
| 21:27 |
|
jcamins_away |
`sudo a2dissite oldfile` |
| 21:28 |
|
jcamins_away |
Now you're going to open up /etc/koha/sites/library/koha-conf.xml and modify the database, username, and password at the end. |
| 21:28 |
|
jcamins_away |
(alternatively, you can load the data into the koha_library database) |
| 21:29 |
|
jcamins_away |
(I prefer the second option; for some unknown reason, everyone else always takes the first) |
| 21:36 |
|
jcamins_away |
You never need to set the Zebra user and password. |
| 21:36 |
|
jcamins_away |
You can always just leave it as the default. |
| 21:39 |

oh right... anyone like the idea of user accounts able to be assigned to multiple branches, and they only able to search inside those branches? Or is that another feature that mandumah needs to keep to itself? |
| 21:42 |

| 21:44 |

jcamins_away |

| 21:51 |

Waylon |
jcamins_away, the concept is, for mandumah at least, we have so far, five seperate 'libraries', that users can search, depending on what they've paid for(mandumah.com is a subscription only digital library archive, 296k articles in pdf format, of 2019 journals/conference papers) so, instead of a user having one branch, they are given multiple branches, and are only able to search within those branches (even when no branch is selected |
| 21:51 |
|
Waylon |
in searches, the branch limits are enforced. good amount of coding i did for that.) Would this have any merit being released, as a syspref option (multiple branches/exclusive searches to those branches, so maybe two sysprefs) |
| 21:51 |
|
Waylon |
? |
| 21:53 |
|
jcamins_away |
Waylon: I'd say you should definitely submit it, and see what other people think. |
| 21:53 |
|
* jcamins_away |
is having trouble visualizing exactly how it would work. |
| 21:53 |
|
Waylon |
its been working fine. |
| 21:53 |
|
Waylon |
on koha 3.0 |
| 21:54 |
|
Waylon |
it basically does alot of branch: limiting. |
| 21:54 |
|
Waylon |
it relies on items for each branch, being used. |
| 21:55 |
|
Waylon |
since its pdf based, we don't have any physical items. but we create them in order to introduce the branch limits. |
| 21:55 |
|
* Waylon |
thought of that one. |
| 22:00 |
|
Waylon |
jcamins_away, okay, a for instance, say that there was two libraries, massey palmerston north, massey Auckland, and they had no automatic interloan system. So, normally, the libraries only want people to be able to search over one library, the one they are with. Except some people are able to search over both of them, such as staff. Provided they have both branches set in their account, their default "unlimited" search will search b |
| 22:00 |
|
Waylon |
oth libraries. |
| 22:01 |
|
Waylon |
you follow now? |
| 22:07 |
|
jcamins_away |
Waylon: got it. That might well be of interest. |
| 22:08 |
|
Waylon |
right. ill write it up in such a way as to be manageable. |
| 22:09 |
|
Waylon |
and syspref is the good idea here? |
| 22:10 |
|
jcamins_away |
Waylon: I think maybe what you want to do is use independantbranches (yes, spelled incorrectly). |
| 22:10 |
|
Waylon |
as in, you don't want every install to support multiple branches, and don't want every install, limiting searches to the branches selected. |
| 22:10 |
|
jcamins_away |
Then you just have to worry about making it so patrons can be multi-homed. |
| 22:10 |
|
jcamins_away |
Oh, yes, definitely a syspref for the first one. |
| 22:11 |
|
Waylon |
yeah.. thinking a BorrowerAttribute? |
| 22:11 |
|
jcamins_away |
That would make sense to me. |
| 22:11 |
|
Waylon |
multiple 'branchcode' attributes on one user account. |

Waylon |

| 22:57 |
|
mtompset |
progress, but got some feedback which means I'll need to change the approach a little. |
| 23:02 |
|
Waylon |
how do i create a new syspref? |
| 23:02 |
|
mtompset |

| 23:03 |
|
eythian |
it's been in the wiki forever. |

Greetings, eythian. How goes the packaging? |
| 23:03 |
|
eythian |
that's the page I was looking for |
| 23:03 |

I'm still getting set up at my new location, but it's going to be a today job. |

eythian: welcome home |
| 23:05 |
|
eythian |
cheers :) |
| 23:05 |
|
mtompset |
home is a strange word, jcamins_away. |
| 23:06 |
|
mtompset |
Having stayed in multiple countries and places, I think I like the "home is where the heart is" definition best. |
| 23:07 |
|
jcamins_away |
mtompset: also, the word for home often has an extra case. |
| 23:08 |
|
jcamins_away |
(locative or the like) |

Waylon: some travel is good. Too much, and you'll start feeling nomadic. ;) |
| 23:08 |
|
Waylon |
now living by myself, so now looking forward to any koha events coming up in wellington. |
| 23:09 |
|
Waylon |
ah.... well.. one first of all has to be able to afford 'too much' travel. |
| 23:09 |
|
eythian |
Waylon: there's been a number of smaller koha events here. |
| 23:09 |
|
Waylon |
oooo? whats happening? |
| 23:10 |
|
eythian |
just user group meetings and the like |
| 23:10 |
|
Waylon |
ah? these are regular events? |
| 23:11 |
|
eythian |
not yet. There's been a general one, and I think a special libraries one. |
| 23:11 |
|
eythian |
Waylon: right now the rest of the koha team is in palmy |
| 23:11 |
|
Waylon |
Wha?! |
| 23:11 |
|
Waylon |

| 23:11 |

they're manning a booth I think, you should go say hi. |
| 23:12 |
|
Waylon |
Holy... |
| 23:12 |
|
eythian |
rangi (Chris), kathryn (Kathryn), and anitsirk (Kristina) |
| 23:13 |
|
Waylon |
question is, whats the best time to catch them? |
| 23:13 |
|
eythian |
I guess there'll be someone around the whole time, but I don't really know. |
| 23:14 |
|
Waylon |
i mean, conferences usually have talks etc.... and lunch breaks and .. yeah. |
| 23:14 |
|
eythian |
I'm surprised rangi isn't online right now to slake his IRC addiction :) |
| 23:14 |
|
eythian |
I think there'll be someone there the whole time, but they'll probably try to catch the interesting talks. |
| 23:15 |
|
eythian |
Waylon: if you PM me a cell number, I can send it to Chris to get in touch with you if you like. |
| 23:15 |
|
Waylon |
haha. don't have a cellphone # |
| 23:15 |
|
Waylon |
don't have a phone number until the 26th, when xnet installs my naked adsl. |
| 23:15 |
|
eythian |
ah right |
| 23:16 |
|
eythian |
in that case, you could email him. He'll probably check it some time. |

Lunch among the Exhibitors -- means that the exhibitors will be absent, or that everyone will be there? |
| 23:26 |
|
eythian |
I have no idea. |
| 23:26 |
|
eythian |
I haven't seen these people for 3.5 months, I'm not the best person to ask :) |
| 23:26 |
|
eythian |
I suspect that it means that everyone will be there though |
| 23:27 |
|
* Waylon |
has never actually met a koha developer, personally. |
| 23:27 |
|
eythian |
I've met a bunch. |
| 23:27 |
|
Waylon |
haven't i bugged them enough already, on IRC? |
| 23:27 |
|
Waylon |
hmm. |
| 23:27 |
|
|
cait left #koha |
| 23:27 |
|
eythian |
but, I've been to three kohacons. |
| 23:28 |
|
Waylon |
got money, will travel eh? |
| 23:28 |
|
eythian |
got a company willing to sponsor it, anyway :) |
| 23:28 |
|
eythian |
although the first one I went to was in wellington, so a short trip. |
| 23:29 |
|
Waylon |
haha. yup. What do you/your company get out of it? |
| 23:30 |
|
eythian |
marketing, developer networking, things like that. |
| 23:31 |
|
Waylon |
hmm... would that be as vaulable to a all digital library such as mandumah? |
| 23:31 |
|
eythian |
I have no idea |
| 23:32 |
|
eythian |
although talking to people about things in person is often beneficial |
| 23:32 |
|
Waylon |
we basically only use a subset of what koha is capable of... but that subset, koha does amazingly. |
| 23:32 |
|
Waylon |
suppose i could go... hmm... got an hour to get there.. |
| 23:33 |
|
ibeardslee |
I'd suggest that if you are using it as an all digital library, getting to a kohacon to talk to people and tell them about your experiences would be a very good thing. |
| 23:33 |
|
eythian |
that's true |
| 23:33 |
|
Waylon |
in hottest part of the day, walking. |
| 23:33 |
|
eythian |
that is often an area that people have questions about |
| 23:33 |
|
eythian |
Waylon: get a bike |
| 23:33 |
|
Waylon |
haha. yeah. something im definately getting once this porting project is done. |
| 23:35 |
|
Waylon |
my maximum allowed injection of funds without benefit deduction (I still can't work 40 hour weeks, i find it really difficult to concerntrate sometimes .. that and i have Aspergers syndrome) in one go. ($5k nzd) |
| 23:36 |
|
eythian |
ah right |
| 23:36 |
|
eythian |
get a cheap bike! ;) |
| 23:38 |
|
Waylon |
yeah. im broke atm. |
| 23:38 |
|
eythian |
steal a bike! ;) |
| 23:38 |
|
Waylon |
suppose i could take a bus, but only got 55 mins now... and im hoping that chris isn't going to one of those 1pm meetings. |
| 23:40 |
|
Waylon |
google earth on android :) |
| 23:43 |
|
Waylon |
... is too slow |
| 23:45 |
|
eythian |
maps is a lot better for that sort of thing |
| 23:45 |
|
eythian |
earth is very slow because it's pulling lots of images |
| 23:45 |
|
eythian |
also hard on your data |
| 23:46 |
|
eythian |
(well, depends what "that sort of thing" is really) |
