03:05 * eythian notes that prove t/Output_JSONStream.t relies on the order of a hash and will fail ~50% of the time.
03:06 eythian mind you, I'm looking at an old version, maybe it's better now
03:09 eythian ah yep, fixed in newer versions
03:10 dcook \o/
03:10 dcook Now if only I could figure out how to get this compiler to look in lib64 instead of lib...
03:11 dcook eythian: were you thinking of using chef or puppet?
03:19 eythian puppet yeah
03:21 dcook How'd you choose puppet?
03:21 eythian that's what we use internally here
03:21 dcook Thought that might be it
03:22 dcook I thought I heard Chef worked better with Amazon, so I've started looking at Chef..
03:22 eythian yeah, I've heard that too. I've used puppet on amazon, it worked fine.
03:23 dcook I like the look of Chef so far but might have to try switching to Puppet if I can't resolve this issue
03:23 dcook Although the issue I think is with the options for gcc rather than Chef itself
03:23 dcook Damned nokogiri
03:24 wizzyrea is chef a rails app?
03:24 wizzyrea I know I could just go look that up.
03:24 dcook hehe
03:24 dcook I'm not sure
03:24 dcook I don't think so
03:24 eythian puppet is a ruby app, though IIRC not rails
03:24 dcook I used the install script they provide which used an rpm... and it looks like it's even embedded ruby within chef
03:24 dcook Quite the self-contained little thing
03:25 dcook Well, at least it looks self-contained so far
03:25 dcook Didn't poke around the rpm at all
03:25 wizzyrea ah right ruby without rails
03:25 dcook hehe
03:25 wizzyrea the chef is off the tracks, look out.
03:25 dcook Hmm, apparently it's Ruby and Erlang
03:26 wizzyrea I don't think I've ever had a reasonable experience with a ruby app.
03:26 dcook Mostly Ruby though I think
03:26 dcook wizzyrea: Yeah, can't say I've really been keen on Ruby, but figured I'd use it just because Chef/Puppet use it
03:27 wizzyrea well that's a reasonable thing. lots of people use puppet and chef, it must work alright
03:27 dcook I was digging Python the other day, although the whole whitespace thing still annoys me
03:27 wizzyrea I've never tried to install it.
03:27 dcook Chef/Puppet?
03:27 wizzyrea yeah
03:27 dcook The Chef installer is pretty slick
03:27 wizzyrea we have people for that :P
03:27 dcook :p
03:27 * dcook wishes he had people for things
03:27 wizzyrea YOU ARE THE PEOPLE
03:27 dcook Although it's fun being a jack of all trades I suppose
03:27 dcook lol
03:27 dcook Yep
03:33 dcook Nope... no idea why this isn't working.
03:34 dcook I'm probably not understanding the gcc options, but it looks like it should be looking in both lib64 and lib
03:34 dcook But fails because it can't find them in lib because lib doesn't exist...
03:34 dcook Ran into this problem with Zebra ages ago, but we cheated for that one
03:34 eythian is /etc/ld.so.conf right?
03:35 dcook I just saw that in my Google results :)
03:35 dcook I'm guessing not
03:35 dcook Hmm
03:37 dcook I think it looks all right
03:37 dcook In hindsight, that's what you mentioned in the past when I had those Zebra problems, eythian
03:37 eythian it might be the build script is not taking it into proper consideration
03:37 dcook That was my guess, but not sure how to figure that out yet
03:38 eythian neither, that's around where my useful knowledge tends to end
03:38 eythian I ought to learn autotools
03:38 pastebot "dcook" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "Errors..." (8 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/308
03:39 pastebot "dcook" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "Gcc" (16 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/309
03:39 dcook It's a massive set of options
03:39 wizzyrea is this a new server?
03:39 eythian it's lookig in /opt, that not what I would expect, unless it's got everything in the package
03:39 dcook eythian: yeah, it should have everything in the package
03:39 eythian why don't you install the distro version?
03:40 dcook eythian: that's probably my next step, but it should work on its own :/
03:40 dcook wizzyrea: Nope. It's been around a while.
03:40 eythian it should be the first step
03:40 eythian because that way things tend to work
03:41 dcook Possibly
03:41 dcook The package version of nokogiri has its own libxml2 and libxslt in it too though
03:41 dcook I wonder where..
03:42 wizzyrea are you trying to gem install nokigiri? you might try it with a --use-system-libraries=true
03:42 dcook I mean, I wonder how "gem install" works
03:42 dcook wizzyrea: Yeah, I imagine that'll work
03:42 dcook As it won't have to compile them
03:42 dcook But it's... disturbing... that it's not working
03:43 wizzyrea could also be a ruby version mismatch
03:43 wizzyrea i've had lots of arguments with ruby.
03:43 dcook ruby version mismatch?
03:43 wizzyrea they were not always civil.
03:43 dcook I've only heard of that happening if you have multiple versions of ruby on your OS
03:43 wizzyrea if you have 2.1, go back to 2.0, if you are using 2.0, go up to 2.1
03:43 dcook (not that I've heard lots)
03:44 wizzyrea if you're doing things manually, ruby can (and does) get upset.
03:44 dcook It's all automatic at the moment :/
03:44 dcook Which is why I'd be reluctant to switch versions
03:45 wizzyrea yeah fair enough
03:45 wizzyrea what OS? CentOS?
03:45 dcook OpenSuse :/
03:45 dcook Hmm, looks like there is a distro package for nokogiri
03:45 dcook Older version... possibly a less problematic version
03:46 dcook Not sure if it'll be high enough for Chef
03:46 dcook Well, the knife ec2 package
03:46 dcook Chef installed well enough
03:49 dcook Hmm, think I'm getting closer after analyzing those options..
03:49 dcook While it's looking in lib64, it's trying to find those exact files in lib...
03:50 dcook And I have no idea what it's trying to do to them
04:23 dcook All right. Don't have time to waste on this. system libraries it is
04:29 dcook wizzyrea: --use-system-libraries did the trick
04:30 dcook I'm thinking there must be an issue with their build script...
04:32 dcook Mmm, I think I might've figured it out..
04:37 dcook I think it's some zlib... although which package..
04:37 dcook Already have zlib-devel...
04:37 dcook and zlib-devel-32bit
04:38 dcook Ah, maybe I'm wrong..
04:55 ddecka joined #koha
05:00 dcook eythian: Quoted from the nokogiri help forum: "The lib as part of the libxml2 and libxslt paths appears to be hard-coded in ext/nokogiri/extconf.rb in the nokogiri distribution"
05:01 dcook Looks like CONFIG_SITE is used to prefer lib64 in most cases, but in nokogiri itself it's just hardcoded for lib
05:01 dcook So it'll never work
05:08 liw dcook, http://obnam.org/faq/private-key-for-backup/ -- obnam needs to decrypt things in the repository even just for  backups
05:09 ddecka should I ask my query?
05:09 dcook liw: I figured that might be the case. I just wasn't sure if obnam stored the private key or if it just asked for it.
05:09 dcook liw: Awesome that you're online though! I've been keen to chat about obnam :)
05:09 dcook ddecka: Sure! Help might vary depending on the question, but it's worth a shot
05:10 ddecka how can I connect or point directly to the server and start cataloguing?
05:20 dcook As per another user's suggestion, disabled CONFIG_SITE, and nokogiri built correctly...
05:21 dcook Yay multi-arch...

08:55 mtj paxed, i read you ran out of memory when auth linking, some days ago..
08:55 mtj ..i was curious how much RAM your system had?
09:02 Joubu joined #koha
09:21 paxed magnuse: but we do want. only admin should be able to add any auths, some other people should be able to add PERSO_NAMEs, but nothing else.
09:22 paxed mtj: 8 Gb - this is just my laptop
09:23 paxed (because PERSO_NAMEs can be highly local, but eg. TOPIC_TERMs come from our national library)
10:03 magnuse paxed: ok, i don't think you can enforce that, then
10:17 ashimema hmm..
10:21 magnuse hm? :-)
10:54 paxed hmph. looks like it's imposible to rename the "Default" auth type via GUI.

12:48 TUBS Hello
12:48 wahanui bidet, TUBS
12:48 F0undation Hello, Koha newbe here with a Q: I've got a bunch of MARC records in Dutch, and a bunch in French, with keywords in respective languages. If I search for 18th century books with query "18e eeuw" I also want the records with "18ieme siecle" returned. Anyone have any good pointers towards Koha installs for multilingual libraries?
12:48 drojf hi TUBS
12:48 TUBS I have a error message form a koha cronjob
12:52 TUBS "/etc/cron.daily/koha-common: <instance>: env: /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjo​bs/automatic_renewals.pl: No Permission"
12:53 TUBS so i changed the scripts permissions to "executible"
12:54 TUBS now the scripr runs but gives error messages

13:06 TUBS there are some more of that kin
13:07 cait F0undation: that's a difficult one - we have lots of multi-langual libraries, but automatic translation/look up is a difficult problem
13:08 drojf joined #koha
13:08 cait F0undation: normally i'd say that you should normalize the records to have the normlized publication year (numeric) in all of them - then the date range search would work nicely
13:08 cait TUBS: is that 3.18.0?
13:09 drojf library wifi :(
13:09 cait TUBS: bug 13377 i think
13:09 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=13377 major, P4, ---, robin, Pushed to Stable , automatic_renewals.pl not marked executable
13:09 cait you need to change the file permissions a bit - the bug report has a description
13:11 drojf TUBS: and you need to add the first line ( http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]34083&action=diff )
13:11 drojf #!/usr/bin/perl
13:11 cait ah right
13:12 cait drojf: team work :)
13:12 drojf yay :)
13:16 F0undation @cait, thanks! Well, it's not only for keywords that are about the time, but also general subject terms. We have them in multiple languages. Was thinking of whether I could do a pass through Google Translate, duplicating the keywords in several languages, before doing the actual query - but then I'd have to hack it into the search interface :p
13:16 huginn F0undation: I suck
13:17 oleonard Ignore huginn, F0undation, he's a bot who doesn't like it when you use the @
13:22 ashimema is it just me.. or should the commented sessionlog lines in Auth.pm really be bound to $debug
13:25 ashimema in fact.. that snippet should also be tenant aware :(
13:25 ashimema to poitn the logs to a useful place.
13:28 TUBS huginn, drojf, @cait: thx very much. that did the trick
13:28 huginn TUBS: I'll give you the answer as soon as RDA is ready
13:28 TUBS RDA?
13:28 wahanui well, RDA is my cataloguing standards are bad, and you should feel bad
13:29 drojf TUBS: ignore huginn, it's a bot. and reacts to @ in a weird way :)
13:29 drojf wahanui is a bot too ;)

14:21 jcamins Joubu: Bernardo might be a better choice right now. ;)
14:22 kivilahtio its is a bit hard in many vies to find the serial number whe there is no info on which enumeration is needed

14:43 oleonard AJAX circ has pretty much upped the specs required for a machine running Koha for checkouts
14:49 JoshB joined #koha
15:19 tipoly_ joined #koha
15:20 ashimema oleonard.. really?
15:20 ashimema I didn't realise ajax for circ was that intensive..
15:21 oleonard I find that Firefox and Chrome both freeze up when trying to process the circ page datatable
15:21 ashimema wow..
15:21 oleonard The browser is unresponsive for a moment while the table loads.
15:21 mtompset AJAX is eeeeeevil. Can me make Koha HTML2.0 compliant. ;)
15:21 mtompset ^me^we^
15:22 oleonard I'm not a fan of this implementation of AJAX circ, but AJAX is not inherently evil.
15:23 ashimema have you noticed a certain size of circ history that affects it?
15:23 oleonard circ history, or number of current checkouts?
15:23 ashimema your right.. it should only be current checkouts that should affect it.
15:25 oleonard Well maybe it's more of a server specs issue... My slow VM slowing down the AJAX processing?
15:26 ashimema hmmm.. shouldn't be..
15:26 ashimema the ajax calls certainly shouldn't lock the rest of the browser.. that was kinda the point of making thme ajax
15:27 ashimema so it's feeling like the datatables part is the factor that's kicking you.. after the actual ajax calls
15:27 oleonard I'll have to do more testing to recognize the pattern
15:34 ashimema I can't replicate any slow down.. but I'm on a farily well equiped machine here :(..
15:34 ashimema I tried with a user with 87 current checkouts..

18:40 cait do i count?
18:41 ashimema you do indeed..
18:41 ashimema I'm having issues with our multi-tenant server..
18:41 cait oh
18:41 * cait turns into rubber duck mode
18:41 ashimema FastMmap is getting shared between instances..
18:41 ashimema and of course the tmp file gets givine one instance's permissions so locks all other instances out
18:42 ashimema resulting in really nasty errors..
18:42 ashimema ever seen that?
18:42 cait yeah
18:42 ashimema Open of share file /tmp/sharefile-koha-koha failed: Permission denied at /usr/lib/perl5/Cache/FastMmap.pm line 640.
18:42 cait uninstall the package
18:42 cait is the only solution i have
18:42 cait as long as the fastmmap thing is instaled, i kept running into this
18:42 cait i had it happen on a normal installation without caching or anything configured - it just assumes if the package is around you want to do something with it i think
18:43 cait uninstalling the fastmmap thing fixed it for me... but i admit it#s probably not the best solution
18:43 ashimema that wants to remove kha-common though :(

18:43 cait maybe you should leave a new comment there
18:44 cait i think it's misbehaving... and also a new bug
18:44 ashimema this is in 3.18 :(
18:46 cait yeah, they improved it a ibt, but it was not a fix
18:46 cait i have kept running into it
18:46 cait i think they only fixed the test
18:46 ashimema crap..
18:46 rangi yeah id file a bug for it, there needs to be a line in koha-conf
18:46 ashimema this has destroyed a live server
18:46 rangi which specifies where you should be caching
18:46 rangi they shouldnt be all trying to use /tmp
18:46 ashimema indeed..
18:47 ashimema any hints on how to get this working in a hurry :(
18:47 rangi yep
18:47 ashimema I can't uninstall fastmmap as it goes and nukes koha-common.
18:47 ashimema this didn't happen in my test upgrade this morning :(
18:47 * ashimema is feeling positive with rangi's yep response
18:47 cait i am sorry, i didn't see it was so serious :(
18:48 rangi http://search.cpan.org/~robm/C[…]stMmap.pm#METHODS
18:48 cait i would have pushed for a proper fix more then
18:48 rangi find where its creating the new object, it will be in Koha::Cache
18:49 rangi sub _initialize_fastmmap {
18:49 rangi in Koha/Cache/pm
18:49 rangi .pm even
18:49 rangi 'share_file'  => "/tmp/sharefile-koha-$self->{'namespace'}"
18:49 ashimema found it..
18:49 rangi make sure $self->{'namespace'}
18:49 rangi is different for each instance
18:50 rangi $self->{'namespace'} ||= $ENV{MEMCACHED_NAMESPACE} || 'koha';
18:50 rangi setting some ENV variables should fix this
18:50 rangi in your apache config
18:50 rangi and when you run any scripts
18:50 rangi that make sense?
18:51 ashimema I believe so
18:51 ashimema thanks rangi
18:51 cait rangi++
18:51 rangi no worries hope it helps
18:51 cait being awesome :)
18:51 ashimema I'm intrugued why $self->{'namespace'} is beign set the same for all instances on the server..
18:51 ashimema but that's another questions.
18:52 * cait crosses fingers for ashimema
18:52 rangi cos of that line
18:52 rangi $self->{'namespace'} ||= $ENV{MEMCACHED_NAMESPACE} || 'koha';
18:52 rangi its defaulting to koha
18:52 cait ah
18:53 cait shouldn't there be a way to turn of caching if you don't want to?
18:53 cait it seems that will kick in always?
18:53 rangi yep
18:55 rangi you can pass in a namespace when you call Koha::Cache->new
18:55 rangi eg
18:55 ashimema So... I can confirm that setting:
18:55 ashimema SetEnv MEMCACHED_NAMESPACE="instance_name"
18:56 ashimema for each instance indeed does the trick.
18:56 ashimema that's a nasty bug..
18:56 rangi its not even a bug
18:56 rangi its just that it should be configured out of the box
18:56 cait hm
18:56 rangi i mean, its not a bug in caching
18:56 cait but what if you don't want to use memcache?
18:56 ashimema I'd certainly not drawn the conclusion that mmap needed a memcached namespace ot be set ;)
18:57 ashimema indeed..
18:57 cait i mean you say no at installation time and it sitll tries to?
18:57 ashimema it's not a bug in caching.
18:57 rangi yep
18:57 ashimema thanks rangi.. you've saved me allot of headaches.
18:57 rangi its a bug in how we call KOha::Cache->new
18:57 rangi i mean its there in the docs, but who reads those :)
18:57 cait so what i'd do is just make sure a Memchaced thing is set... even if we don't use memcache?
18:58 cait or will that make other bad stuff happen?
18:58 cait like... turning it on?
18:58 * cait is confused but worreid to run into this soon
18:58 rangi the real fix
18:58 wahanui the real fix is to learn python and fix git-bz :-)
18:59 rangi is to call Koha::Cache->new({cache_type => $cache_type, namespace => $namespace});
18:59 rangi the env is there only as a fallback
18:59 ashimema I don't like that an environment variable clearly named MEMCACHED is used for a non memchaced thing..
18:59 rangi i dont like its an env variable at all
19:00 rangi the real fix is to actually pass in the namespace
19:00 ashimema I'e rather it just called CACHE_NAMESPACE making it generic if that's the case.. and set by default to somthing sensible on a per instance basis.
19:00 rangi Koha::Cache expects you to
19:00 rangi it just falls back to that
19:00 ashimema hmm.. so the bug is further up in the code..
19:00 rangi yep
19:00 ashimema where we should be passing in a namespace.
19:00 rangi in the places that call it
19:00 rangi exactly
19:01 ashimema k..
19:01 ashimema so..
19:01 rangi cos env variables suck, when you are doing plack etc
19:01 rangi and cronjobs
19:01 wahanui cronjobs are essential
19:01 ashimema should I bother submitting a fix to the installer to set an env variable by default or not.. that is the question.
19:01 ashimema haha.. agreed..
19:01 cait so... someone volunteering to do a real fix? it suddenly sounds quite complicated
19:01 rangi no its really not complicated at all
19:01 cait :(
19:01 rangi just find the places that call Koha::Cache->new
19:02 rangi and fix them to pass a namespace
19:02 ashimema just means tracking down all the calling routines and correcting the way they call it ;)
19:02 rangi theres very few
19:02 rangi one or 2
19:02 wahanui 3
19:02 ashimema 3 ;)
19:03 ptfs-david_ joined #koha
19:04 ashimema once in Koha::Cache itself.. but in this case it looks like it's meant to be shared..
19:04 mtompset wahanui: You said learn python?! Who taught you such a foul utterance? :P
19:04 wahanui wish i knew, mtompset
19:04 ashimema get_instance routine creates a singleton_cache?
19:04 ashimema no idea why.
19:04 ashimema right...
19:04 ashimema dinner
19:04 rangi id ask jcamins or eythian about that
19:04 ashimema brb
19:04 rangi but for now, the env variable will save you until thats fixed
19:05 jcamins For the record, I expressed my distaste for environmental variables from the start.
19:05 rangi *nod* i remember
19:05 jcamins But my distaste for doing nothing was greater than my distaste for environmental variables.
19:05 rangi as did i
19:05 rangi yup
19:05 rangi when its configured it works well
19:06 ashimema thanks guys
19:09 rangi ashimema: one of yours?
19:10 mtompset python?
19:10 wahanui i guess python is a bit ropey with its utf8 handling, but it can be made to work
19:11 oleonard jcamins: Really? My distaste for doing nothing is at an all-time low!
19:12 rangi heh
19:12 rangi thanks for the followup oleonard
19:12 rangi on the z3950 thing
19:12 * cait is just confused
19:13 oleonard Sure, I hope it was diplomatic. I wanted him to get his patch in too.
19:13 rangi *nod*
19:13 rangi i think so
19:14 jcamins oleonard: that was when I was young and naive.

19:37 cait ... will you people stop complaining? :)
19:37 cait ok.. I like rain, cold not so much
19:37 * jcamins prefers cold to rain.
19:38 jcamins At least if it's just cold you can wear a jacket and have some hope of not getting painfully cold.
19:38 jcamins When there are torrential downpours and it's below 10C, you are going to be in danger of hypothermia.
19:39 cait but rain sounds nice
19:39 cait can't say that about cold :)
19:40 ibeardslee wind cold rain .. I can handle two of those at a time, although cold & rain is probably the least prefered combination.
19:41 ibeardslee also where 'not cold' is 18°C+
19:41 mtompset By the way, does anyone know how to upgrade debhelper on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS?

20:17 rangi software defined radio
20:17 larryb sounds like fun
20:17 larryb eythian handles the apt repository, right?
20:18 rangi https://www.kiwicon.org/the-con/training/#e114
20:18 rangi yep
20:19 larryb ah okay. I noticed that the oldstable version is still 3.14, instead of 3.16
20:19 rangi ah yep
20:20 larryb rangi, can you let him know?
20:20 rangi will do
20:20 larryb thank you sir
20:20 drojf1 joined #koha
20:21 larryb I wonder too if we should start changing how the packages are built. I noticed the other day, when installing a package via dpkg on Ubuntu 14.04, that the later versions of dpkg don't like .deb packages where the version number doesn't start with a digit.
20:21 larryb It refused to install it.
20:22 larryb I presume Wheezy will do the same
20:23 rangi it does start with a digit doesnt it?
20:23 larryb I believe it starts with 'koha-common'
20:23 mtompset Why are you using dpkg to install on Ubuntu 14.04?
20:23 rangi koha-common_3.18.00_all.deb
20:23 larryb because I was installing a custom package with some additional patches in it
20:24 mtompset Ah.
20:24 rangi ah well thats up to you when you make the package
20:24 rangi ./debian/build-git-snapshot -v 3.14.11 -r /tmp
20:24 rangi you give it the version number you want
20:24 larryb yeah, and I fixed it on our packages, but there are also situations where you might want to download the .deb file from the repository and install via dpkg.
20:25 rangi they look fine in the repo to me
20:25 larryb it's rare, but there have been occasions where I needed to do that
20:25 larryb okay, well maybe it's not an issue then
20:26 * rangi wgets it to test
20:26 wizzyrea I don't recall having that problem when I've done it on 14.04
20:26 wizzyrea not from the repository anyway
20:26 larryb hmm, maybe it was just a problem with the ones I built
20:27 wizzyrea nor, come to think of it, from a custom package that started with koha-common
20:27 rangi works on debian sid
20:27 larryb cool
20:27 rangi i think if you forget the -v when you build or did -v somewords
20:27 rangi it would complain
20:27 rangi rejigging the apt repository is on his list too
20:27 larryb no, I did include the -v when I built it, but the version I gave was something like 'bywater-v3.16.04...'
20:28 rangi ah yeah, it wont like that
20:28 larryb didn't like that so I set -v to '3.16.04-6.bywater' and that worked fine
20:28 rangi i do -v 3.16.04~bywater
20:30 rangi http://www.ducea.com/2006/06/1[…]ming-explanation/
20:30 rangi if you want to name them the ubuntu way :)

21:12 mtompset I'm going to install apache, mysql, and strawberry perl (or some other windowsy perl)....
21:12 mtompset Well, we keep saying it isn't possible... perhaps it is now... maybe in the next to impossible chance it is, it would be nice to know. :)
21:13 rangi its still a horribly bad idea
21:13 drojf forgetpasword: you could try 'apt-cache policy koha-common' to see if you installed packages
21:13 * cait agrees
21:14 drojf for starters
21:14 mtompset Yes, it is... but one has to dream of the freedom to do really stupid things. :)
21:14 drojf stupid nonfree things

21:15 jcamins lol
21:18 mtompset And if it works, and I make a live-dvd of it, I'll be sure to call it "Drojf's Dream Koha Live-DVD"
21:18 drojf lol
21:18 drojf i'll volunteer as the "Drojf's Dream Koha Live-DVD"-manager
21:19 cait be careful what you get yourself into

21:21 wizzyrea please don't.
21:21 wizzyrea I'm asking you with my brain.
21:22 wizzyrea that basically creates a mess that nobody wants to deal with.
21:22 wizzyrea and we have values to uphold.
