hi i've tried unsuccesfully to use something link postfix, nullmailer, mailutils etc. to allow koha to send automated emails. I just don't know how to make it work. does anyone know of a good guide to set it up? the document files doesn't help me much |
00:20 |
|
trea |
postfix? |
00:20 |
|
wahanui |
postfix is found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix (but you probably can skip the SASL stuff) or at http://www.postfix.org/documentation.html |
00:21 |
|
trea |
koha just needs a standard smtp mailer. nothing sophisticated beyond standard smtp administration is required. |
00:22 |
|
mib_9kf7xj |
i tried following the steps on both those sites.. but I've not ever managed to get emails to work. I know it sounds stupid, but i've done everything else succesfullly, lan networking, koha set up etc. just the emails doenst |

mib_9kf7xj: are you using packages, if so did you run koha-enable-email instancename |
00:52 |

or maybe it's koha-email-enable |

hi all. When I set the delay time for advance notice of item due, ie pre-due notice.. do i use lets say 3 days or -3 days? |
09:27 |
|
|
gerundio joined #koha |
09:27 |
|
kf |
positive values |
09:27 |
|
kf |
due date + 3 days |
09:27 |
|
kf |
um sorry |
09:28 |
|
kf |
3 days before due date |
09:28 |
|
kf |
now it makes more sense |
09:28 |
|
mib_ozrkj4 |
oh thanks, i wasn't sure about this |
09:28 |
|
mib_ozrkj4 |
so i just put a positive number in for predue notices right? |
09:29 |
|
mib_ozrkj4 |
i see what you mean, put in 3, which means "notice will be sent 3 days before due date" |
09:32 |
|
kf |
hm |
09:33 |
|
kf |
where are you putting those numbers? |
09:33 |
|
kf |
it's a pull down in my installation with positive values |
09:36 |
|
mib_ozrkj4 |
in the overdue notice/status triggers. is this where you set pre-due notices..or another place? |
09:36 |
|
mib_ozrkj4 |
is this purely for overdue notices? |
09:41 |
|
kf |
no that are overdue notices |
09:41 |
|
kf |
predue are set somewhere else |
09:41 |
|
mib_ozrkj4 |
do you know where please? |
09:41 |
|
kf |
first you need to activate your enhanced messaging in the system preferences |
09:41 |
|
kf |
manual? |
09:41 |
|
wahanui |
i guess manual is at http://www.koha-community.org/documentation |
09:42 |
|
kf |
and then take a look at patron category configuration in administration |
09:42 |
|
kf |
and look into individual patron accounts |
09:42 |
|
kf |
and search the manual for predue :) |
09:46 |
|
mib_ozrkj4 |
oh thanks, the thing is i updated to 3.8.6 today from 3.8.4 and messaging options wasn't available under patron category |
09:46 |
|
mib_ozrkj4 |
thanks.. i didn't see this in the manual, late at night now i need sleep |

hey libsysguy, did you mention something about a mechanized testing suite? |
12:01 |
|
libsysguy |
yeah, did you read my morning company email ;) |
12:01 |
|
magnuse |
nope :-) |
12:01 |
|
magnuse |
think it was mentioned at the last meeting ? |
12:02 |
|
* magnuse |
is curious to see it :-) |
12:02 |
|
libsysguy |
yes it was |
12:02 |
|
libsysguy |
actually after doing a bit of research i found there is a FOSS project doing exactly what I was trying to do |
12:02 |
|
libsysguy |
Selenium |
12:02 |
|
wahanui |
Selenium is, like, more things like "perform this action, ensure that this is the result" |
12:03 |
|
libsysguy |
and it has a generator for Perl |
12:03 |
|
magnuse |
ah yes, i think someone already did a little bit of work on that and koha? |
12:03 |
|
libsysguy |
if wahanui knows about it probably so |
12:03 |
|
libsysguy |
I was going t us WWW::Mechanize initially with HTTP::Recorder |
12:04 |
|
libsysguy |
but selenium makes life a bit easier than re-inventing the wheel |
12:05 |
|
magnuse |
hehe |
12:05 |
|
magnuse |
there is a selenium/ folder: http://git.koha-community.org/[…]=selenium;hb=HEAD |
12:06 |
|
libsysguy |
ahh yup |
12:06 |
|
libsysguy |
those are some selenium scripts |
12:06 |
|
libsysguy |
I wonder why it was abandoned |
12:07 |
|
magnuse |
no idea |
12:07 |
|
* libsysguy |
is now nervous |
12:08 |
|
libsysguy |
anyway, thats the first step I'd like to take toward automated testing |
12:08 |
|
magnuse |
cool |
12:08 |
|
magnuse |
so it's an ongoing project? |
12:08 |
|
libsysguy |
yeah I am planning on working on it from now until the end of december full time |
12:08 |
|
libsysguy |
at least |
12:08 |
|
magnuse |
i got the impression from the meeting log that it was just waiting to be revealed to the world :-) |
12:09 |
|
magnuse |
oh very cool |
12:09 |
|
* magnuse |
wonders if jcamins_away has an opinon on selenium vs test::www::mechanize |
12:09 |
|
libsysguy |
heh |
12:10 |
|
libsysguy |
jcamins_away: has an opinion about everything :p |
12:10 |
|
magnuse |
:-) |
12:10 |
|
libsysguy |
jcamins_away: once told me that he found the color of my socks appalling |
12:10 |
|
libsysguy |
^^ only kidding |
12:10 |
|
magnuse |
hehe |
12:11 |
|
kf |
libsysguy: I ran into some problems with selenium - it might not work as well as your approach |
12:12 |
|
libsysguy |
i think an important part of getting more robust testing is forcing devels to submit tests with their code |
12:12 |
|
libsysguy |
kf, what kind of problems? |
12:12 |
|
kf |
I was using the browser plugin |
12:12 |
|
kf |
and had problems recording some things |
12:12 |
|
kf |
also with the base urls |
12:13 |
|
kf |
it seems recording was fine, but replaying it after a week or so, or in another installation... |
12:13 |
|
kf |
I gave up on it |
12:13 |
|
libsysguy |
ahh I gotcha |
12:13 |
|
libsysguy |
it records on ID's so that may have been the problem you were seeing but WWW::Mechinize would suffer the same fate |
12:14 |
|
kf |
I think francharb tried out selenium too |
12:14 |
|
* magnuse |
has written test::www::mechanize teste for the digital signs and didn't find it horrible :-) |
12:14 |
|
kf |
what's the problem with http:recorder? |
12:15 |
|
kf |
magnuse: yeah, I did one with rangi at kohacon |
12:15 |
|
kf |
seemed not too hard and being able to see more about what is going on |
12:15 |
|
libsysguy |
it does the exact same thing as selenium |
12:15 |
|
magnuse |
kf: but you didn't submit it? |
12:15 |
|
kf |
nah, it was only for playing :) |
12:15 |
|
kf |
to learn how to use it |
12:16 |
|
libsysguy |
it seems like whoever submitted the selenium stuff didn't update the baseurl or host |
12:16 |
|
magnuse |
ah |
12:16 |
|
libsysguy |
HDL... |
12:16 |
|
libsysguy |
:p |
12:21 |
|
magnuse |
how would i run the existing tests in selenium/ ? just as regular perl scripts? or through something like prove? |
12:23 |
|
libsysguy |
i think you can run them as perl scripts |
12:23 |
|
magnuse |
okelydokely |
12:23 |
|
libsysguy |
though you will probably have to change the host |
12:23 |
|
magnuse |
yeah, looks like it |
12:23 |
|
magnuse |
i'll have to investigate some more later, i guess |
12:26 |
|
libsysguy |
well don't worry I've got all day dedicated to it |
12:26 |
|
libsysguy |
I can post the results somewhere if you guys want |
12:30 |
|
libsysguy |
ha I got it to work with the old test |
12:32 |
|
libsysguy |
but I think these tests were written for an old version |
12:32 |
|
magnuse |
yeah, probably |
12:32 |
|
libsysguy |
so with test you did have to run them with prove |
12:33 |
|
libsysguy |
but I think for the WWW version you can just run the script |
12:33 |
|
magnuse |
looks like they were added in 2009 - 3 years ago now |
12:33 |
|
libsysguy |
yeah I think oleonard would agree…too old for the current UI |
12:34 |
|
* magnuse |
likes prove :-) |
12:34 |
|
libsysguy |
it is handy for sure |
12:34 |
|
libsysguy |
they need subfunctions "prove by contrapositive" |
12:37 |
|
francharb |
kf, I tried selenium, yep! but the firefox plugin doesn't work with firefox last versions .... I didn't have time to retest rangi httprecorder script but I guess it's a better option for now... |
12:40 |
|
jcamins_away |
magnuse: libsysguy: I prefer Test::WWW::Mechanize where it is sufficient. |
12:40 |
|
jcamins_away |
Selenium requires a web browser. |
12:40 |
|
|
jwagner joined #koha |
12:41 |
|
magnuse |
jcamins_away: requires a web browser - for creating the tests, or for running them too? |
12:41 |
|
libsysguy |
running them |
12:41 |
|
libsysguy |
so it can also run the javascript |
12:42 |
|
kf |
libsysguy: as I found selenium not well working for me, I kinda like http::recorder more at the moment |
12:42 |
|
jcamins_away |
magnuse: running them. |
12:44 |
|
libsysguy |
:'( |
12:46 |
|
magnuse |
ah, being able to run (and test) javascript is cool, though |
12:46 |
|
libsysguy |
yeah that is why I like it |
12:47 |
|
libsysguy |
we can do both |
12:47 |
|
libsysguy |
but its really nice to be able to verify the page looks the way its supposed to |
12:49 |
|
kf |
hm guess the javascript is a plus again :) |
12:50 |
|
libsysguy |
I think so, considering we are relying on it more heavily |
12:50 |
|
magnuse |
i suspect we will not be too choosy - if "someone" makes lots of selenium tests that do a good job they will hardly be turned away because they are written for the wrong framework? |
12:51 |
|
libsysguy |
well my goal is to make it stupidly easy for libraries to write their own tests |
12:51 |
|
magnuse |
yay :-) |
12:51 |
|
libsysguy |
and I think selenium does that |
12:52 |
|
libsysguy |
it has a FF plugin |
12:52 |
|
kf |
libsysguy: it's is not sutpidly easy |
12:52 |
|
kf |
even with the plugin :( |
12:52 |
|
kf |
I had problems when the page took too long to load and stuff like that |
12:52 |
|
libsysguy |
well maybe not now…I want to make it that way :p |
12:52 |
|
kf |
but that was a few versions ago |
12:53 |
|
kf |
and maybe it was just me being too stupid :) |
12:53 |
|
libsysguy |
whatever kf you're a smarty-pants |
12:54 |
|
kf |
lol |
12:54 |
|

I can just pretend the software has improved a lot since last time I used it - whatever happens :) |

Is the system preferences Local Use tab supposed to be reserved for prefs which shouldn't really be changed? |

15:18 |
|
jcamins |
(and local sysprefs) |
15:18 |
|
tcohen |
would the RM want them on all languages? |
15:18 |
|
tcohen |
or just en for sandbox testing? |
15:18 |

tcohen: your tests should pass under all languages. |

They do not have to be translated, however. |

tcohen |
jcamins, do all db_dependent pass on all languages right now? |
15:19 |
|
jcamins |
tcohen: all but the branch-related ones, I think. |
15:20 |
|
jcamins |
(missing sample data) |
15:20 |
|
tcohen |
so it is possible that Holidays.t fails fr non-en languages right now |
15:20 |
|
tcohen |
(MPL branch is used) |
15:21 |
|
jcamins |
Yeah, MPL is the branch that is missing from the non-en sample data. |

15:30 |
|
jcamins |
Right now, C4::VirtualShelves is not really Plack-safe, since any time the database connection times out, it fails to detect the new connection. |
15:31 |
|
jcamins |
However, I seem to be the first person to have noticed this. |
15:31 |
|
jcamins |
Does that mean that under Plack + MySQL database connections *never* time out? |

19:47 |

19:48 |

19:48 |

jcamins |
It requires a compilation step. |
19:49 |

yeah, but it is really amazing |
19:49 |

we switched to it on all our projects |
19:49 |

It can be built using less, but doesn't have to be. |
19:56 |
|

ha ok |
19:57 |
|
* jcamins |
is not the final word on this- if oleonard said "we should use sass," I would be convinced. |
19:57 |
|
* oleonard |
isn't convinced that sass or less would make a big difference for Koha |
19:58 |
|
* maximep |
is |
19:58 |
|
maximep |
because my coworker just convinced me |
19:59 |
|
maximep |
you can have config files in foundation (in sass) and change all the fonts, colors |
19:59 |
|
maximep |
etc, all in 1 config file |
19:59 |
|
maximep |
I really think sass is the future |

20:00 |
|
jcamins |
maximep: can't you do that in CSS too? |
20:00 |
|
jcamins |
Isn't that the entire point of a stylesheet? |
20:00 |
|
oleonard |
I could see that being a useful feature if we wanted to build a custom CSS configuration tool in the staff client, allowing users to generate their own theme |
20:00 |
|
maximep |
yes, but you do it for every html tag |
20:00 |
|
maximep |
sass has variables |
20:00 |
|
oleonard |
...but that's a big step from saying "let's use it" |
20:01 |
|
maximep |
and sass requires ruby :/ |
20:01 |
|

20:03 |
|
maximep |
well it requires ruby for developers |
20:03 |
|
maximep |
sass generates good old css |
20:03 |
|
jcamins |
maximep: right. No Ruby dependencies. |
20:05 |
|
oleonard |
I think sass and less are much more useful when you're frequently building sites from scratch. I don't see them as being so useful with the kind of incremental changes we usually deal with. |
20:06 |
|
jcamins |
Bootstrap doesn't require Ruby, does it? |
20:07 |
|
oleonard |
No |
20:07 |
|
jcamins |
Good. |
20:07 |
|
maximep |
less requires node.js... way worst. But I guess bootstraps doesnt *require* less :p |

i thought all cpan modules where distributed under the same terms Perl is |
21:20 |

eythian |
if so, that's great. This one has no license information at all. |
21:21 |

* eythian |
looks to see if there's a standard rule for this |
21:25 |
|
eythian |
http://www.perlfoundation.org/[…]ensing_guidelines <-- here's the rules (even though it says guidelines) for licensing CPAN modules. This module violates the "must" rules by providing no licensing information. |

Hi. If I run: sudo koha-foreach --enabled --email /usr/share/koha/bin/maintenance/borrowers-force-messaging-defaults - then this should enable the default messaging options for all patrons, correct? what is the default? |
21:38 |
|
eythian |
Guest5645: it should, yes |
21:38 |
|
eythian |
the default is whatever you set in the patron category settings section of administration |
21:38 |
|
Guest5645 |
so what is the default? because it doesn't seem to have changed any thing in the messaging options, nothing is ticked. |
21:39 |

Hi. had to go offline for a sec. i checked my default messaging options under home>administration>patron categories and its set to include item due and advance notice. |
21:45 |
|
Jurgens |
when i ran the borrowers-force-messaging-defaults still no boxes are ticked. |
21:46 |
|
eythian |
I haven't used that script, so I can't tell you for sure, but I would expect that to work. |
21:46 |
|
eythian |
does koha-list --enabled --email do what you'd expect? |
21:46 |
|
Jurgens |
I am able to have an email sent out when an item is checked in and out... but no other notices are being sent.. even when i run the process_message_queue script. |
21:47 |
|
Jurgens |
and the overdues and advanced message script |
21:48 |
|
Jurgens |
koha-list --enabled --email says grep: /etc/apace2/sites-available/library: Permission denied then on the next line prints library which is the instance name |
21:49 |
|
eythian |
ok, that's an OK response. |
21:49 |
|
eythian |
hmm |
21:49 |
|
Jurgens |
so i just ran sudo koha-list --enabled --email and it prints the instance name. I have in the past told koha to enable sending emails. |
21:50 |
|
Jurgens |
My question really is why am I automatically able to send check-in and check-out emails for manually adjusted for patrons, but the overdue messages doesn't work - i thought that should always be able to be sent when you've enabled emails. |
21:50 |
|
eythian |
you could try running the command by hand. Along the lines of: PERL5LIB=/usr/share/koha KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/sites/library/koha-conf.xml /usr/share/koha/bin/maintenance/borrowers-force-messaging-defaults |
21:51 |
|
eythian |
oh, prefix that with sudo -u koha-library env |
21:51 |
|
eythian |
overdue notices should work, they are only calculated daily however. |
21:52 |
|
eythian |
oh |
21:52 |
|
eythian |
also, you should look at the docs for force-borrower-messaging-defaults |
21:52 |
|
eythian |
as you need to pass it '--doit' to actually have it apply the changes. |
21:52 |
|
eythian |
use '--help' for info |

good night #koha |
22:06 |
|
Jurgens |
when I try to pass the arguement --doit the terminal just spews up stuff saying it doens't understand it |
22:08 |
|
eythian |
what exactly does it say? |
22:08 |
|
eythian |
because this is in the code: |
22:08 |
|
eythian |
my $result = GetOptions( |
22:08 |
|
eythian |
'doit' => \$doit, |
22:08 |
|
eythian |
so it almost certainly understands it |
22:09 |
|
|
Ccorrales joined #koha |
22:14 |

so the standard line to my knowledge is: sudo koha-foreach --enabled --email /usr/share/koha/bin/maintenance/borrowers-force-messaging-defaults |
22:15 |
|
Jurgens |
what is the best way to alter this to get it to force messaging defaults. |
22:16 |
|
Jurgens |
To be honest, this is of little concern to me at this point, i just don't seem to be able to get any overdue messages sent at all. |
22:16 |
|
eythian |
put '--doit' at the end should work |
22:16 |
|
Jurgens |
I would rather have overdues sent than advanced notices and hold notices etc... |
22:16 |
|
Jurgens |
i did try --doit at the end.. did nothing. |
22:16 |
|
eythian |
when you say nothing, what do you mean? |
22:17 |
|
eythian |
<Jurgens> when I try to pass the arguement --doit the terminal just spews up stuff saying it doens't understand it |
22:17 |
|
Jurgens |
oh wait.. it did work now |
22:17 |
|
Jurgens |
yay!... |

excellent |
22:17 |
|
Jurgens |
hi 5. |
22:18 |
|
eythian |
so as for the overdues, does it create them and not send them, or not create them at all? |
22:18 |
|
eythian |
you can tell my looking in the message_queue table |
22:18 |
|
eythian |
*by |
22:24 |
|
Jurgens |
ok.. so just checked the table - and confirmed in koha under the specific patron notices section that there are hold available for pick up notices. |
22:24 |
|
Jurgens |
but no overdues. |
22:24 |
|
Jurgens |
the status is pending |
22:25 |
|
melia |
the status of the hold available is pending? or you see overdue notices with status pending? |
22:25 |
|
Jurgens |
The status of the hold avialable message is pending.. there aren't any overdue notices that were generated,pending or sent at all. only hold messages. |
22:25 |
|
melia |
have you set the triggers for overdue notices in Tools? |
22:26 |
|
eythian |
pending means that it hasn't been sent yet. Sending happens whenever the process_messages cron job runs. |
22:26 |
|
melia |
also, do you have the cron jobs set up correctly? |
22:26 |
|
eythian |
typically every 15 minutes or so |
22:26 |
|
melia |
you need the advance notice one, the overdue notice one, and process_message_queue all turned on for this to work |
22:26 |
|
eythian |
in a package setup, these are all pre-configured for you. |
22:27 |
|
Jurgens |
yes... packages setup |
22:27 |
|
eythian |
but you will have to configure your triggers in Tools, as melia says. |
22:28 |
|
melia |
(for the overdue notices, that is) |
22:29 |
|
Jurgens |
yes triggers...3 days past due |
22:29 |

melia |
maybe something in here will help you: http://bywatersolutions.com/20[…]shooting-notices/ |
22:31 |
|
melia |
that's about all of the ideas I have, anyway :) |
22:32 |
|
Jurgens |
if i manually run the over_due.pl script.. if i say like sudo koha-foreach --enabbled --email /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/overdue_notices.pl i get the following output |
22:33 |
|
Jurgens |
use of uninitialized value in pattern matc (m//) at /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/overdue_notices.pl line 670 |
22:33 |
|
Jurgens |
this is printed several times |
22:33 |
|
melia |
did anyone already ask what version of Koha you are running? I remember some bugs a while back with overdue notices (like 8607) |
22:34 |
|
Jurgens |
3.8.6 |
22:34 |
|
melia |
well I don't think that bug's your problem then |
22:37 |
|
eythian |
I'm not sure, it tends to work for me :) |
22:37 |
|
Jurgens |
i think i found the problem.. it in the message body i have <item>"<<biblio.title>>.......but no closing </item> |
22:37 |
|
eythian |
I think I have seen that error before, hasn't caused problems that I know of. |
22:37 |
|
Jurgens |
because in line 670 of the script this is what it points to. |
22:37 |
|
eythian |
hmm, OK. That shouldn't prevent the sending though. |
22:37 |
|
melia |
I have seen that error, too, with no problems |
22:37 |
|
eythian |
just make them look funny |
22:38 |
|
melia |
are you seeing no overdue notice for a particular patron? or for all patrons? |
22:38 |
|
melia |
if particular patron, does he/she have a valid email address? |
22:38 |
|
melia |
because if not, he would go into the print overdue that gets sent to the library, so you wouldn't see any email on his notices tab |
22:39 |
|
Jurgens |
no patrons, a few don't have email addressess. but most have valid ones. now i corrected the overdue notice i see errors in line 659 and 670... |
22:40 |
|
melia |
is the code of the notice unique? (i.e., you don't have more than one notice with code ODUE, do you?) |
22:41 |
|
Jurgens |
nope... should the fines be run before the overdue script? manually i mean.. because I am not including fine values in the notice... but line 659 in the overdue script is about processing fines. |
22:41 |
|
melia |
don't think fines will have any effect on whether or not notices are sent out |
22:43 |
|
eythian |
yeah, afaik it doesn't |
22:44 |
|
melia |
oh wait a minute - are you just running overdue_notices.pl manually and then checking the patron's notices tab to see if there's a notice there? if so, you won't see it until you run process_message_queue, I think |
22:44 |
|
melia |
overdue_notices.pl just puts the message in the queue. it doesn't get emailed anywhere until process_message_queue.pl runs. |
22:45 |
|
eythian |
if you're seeing messages marked as "pending", you're looking in the right place. |
22:45 |
|
Jurgens |
but what about the error messages i get when manually running the overdue script? |
22:45 |
|
eythian |
so the cron file runs: |
22:45 |
|
eythian |
koha-foreach --enabled --email /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/overdue_notices.pl -t |
22:45 |
|
eythian |
koha-foreach --enabled /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/fines.pl |
22:45 |
|
eythian |
do you have '-t'? (not sure off the top of my head what it does) |
22:46 |
|
melia |
it means the notice goes out only when the item hits the trigger |
22:46 |
|
Jurgens |
no.. i accidentally forgot to add it.. when adding it ..no error messages... |
22:46 |
|
Jurgens |
that makes sense..thank you.. |
22:46 |
|
Jurgens |
next step..process the queue.. brb |
22:49 |
|
Jurgens |
ok seems that this is all working fantastically now. |
22:50 |
|
Jurgens |
i see sent messages.. and it appears to be sent to mailq succesfully |
22:50 |
|
melia |
great! |
22:50 |
|
eythian |
sweet :) |
22:51 |
|
Jurgens |
now i will check to make sure that all the right members received emails and didn't miss any.. thank you so much for your help. |
22:51 |
|
Jurgens |
it seems obvious now.. but when I tried it with the manuals .. i was just missing something. thank you very much |
22:52 |
|
eythian |
no worries :) |
22:55 |
|
Jurgens |
another quick question.. I was working offline.. I can delete the messages before its sent using postfix no problem.. is there away to flush the messages sent to members? |
22:55 |
|
Jurgens |
so it doens't show in the notices section of each patron. |
22:57 |
|
melia |
I don't know of any way to clean out the notices tab, sorry |
22:57 |
|
Jurgens |
I guess I can trucate the messages table in mysql... |
23:01 |
|
eythian |
Jurgens: yeah, truncate the table is what I'd do |
23:01 |
|
eythian |
I'm not sure if there's a script that'll do that, but it's possible |
23:01 |
|
eythian |
wait, there is |
23:01 |
|
eythian |
koha-foreach --enabled --noemail /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/cleanup_database.pl --mail |
23:01 |
|
eythian |
it does that if you don't have mail enabled so the table doesn't get fuller and fuller |
23:05 |
|
Jurgens |
oh yeah thats right.. thank you again. |
23:05 |
|
Jurgens |
ok.. seems that I am set now. Cheers. |

Auckland to be specific. |
23:07 |

eythian |
cool, is this a new Auckland Koha library? |
23:08 |
|
Jurgens |
Yeah I'm in the process of setting up a library for my Mom's Guild - they've got quite a few thousand books and magazines and they were on the old card system. But it was getting to the point were it was a nightmare to manage and sort and keep track off. So i suggested this. |
23:09 |
|
Jurgens |
My problem is that I am a Chemical Materials Engineer - not software! So I had a steep learning curve - it seems to have gone well though. Things work now, and I just had the automated messages to learn. |
23:09 |

eythian |
http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]a_Users_Worldwide <-- don't forget to add the details to this |
23:09 |

No doubt I will have a lot of learning still ahead, but I am catching up. |
23:10 |
|
Jurgens |
Yes. Thanks for that. |
23:10 |
|
eythian |
yeah, it's a fairly complex application, but once it's up and running, it tends to just keep going |
23:10 |
|
Jurgens |
My biggest hurdle will be to train the next head librarian! |
23:11 |
|
eythian |
haha :) |
23:13 |
|
Jurgens |
Its the Auckland Patchworkers & Quilters Guild library - so mostly people focused on the artistic side! But I've noticed now that I've shown its possible they are keen to look at a lot more things like setting up blogs etc. So lots of excitement. |
23:15 |
|
eythian |
awesome, a nice pretty public OPAC gets people quite keen on that sort of thing too |
23:16 |
|
Jurgens |
yes, the next part of the implimentation - but probably a target of next year - is to get the OPAC hosted possibly using their website IT guys. |
23:16 |
|
Jurgens |
I know it can be done by myself - as long as I have a domain for it - but something to look at over the summer. |
23:18 |
|
Jurgens |
At the moment we are just using it on a closed network - the reason being they meet monthly so they don't have a permanent library. But once we have the OPAC available I'm guessing that at least people can have access to their accounts from home and search for items etc. |
