10:14 qiqo   i will then have a 12 digit barcode with alot of zeros and the last digits are my assigned number
10:13 qiqo   i had to modify this $sum = $sum + ( 3 * substr($code, $i, 1) );  to $sum = $sum + ( 1 * substr($code, $i, 1) );
10:05 hdl    I am glad for you.
10:05 hdl    yes.
09:48 qiqo   hdl are you there?
09:47 qiqo   i have fixed my barcode problem
09:47 qiqo   hi everyone
09:20 paul   ok, you won ;-)
09:20 kados  snap :-)
09:20 paul   ccode = JF with comma
09:20 kados  nevermind ... trailing comma
09:18 kados  can anyone tell me what is wrong with it? (driving me nuts)
09:18 kados  where biblionumber = 2
09:18 kados  ccode           = JF,
09:18 kados  place           = NULL,
09:18 kados  size            = NULL,
09:18 kados  notes           = NULL,

09:17 dewey  kados: sorry...
09:17 kados  dewey           = NULL,
09:17 kados  classification  = 'J Byars',

09:17 kados  url             = NULL,
09:17 kados  itemtype        = 'CIRC',
09:17 kados  Update biblioitems set
09:17 kados  for some reason, this query is wrong:
09:06 kados  did it work?
09:00 hdl    kados: done ok.
08:50 kados  hdl: revert to 1.36.2.19, and it will fix the prob I bet
08:50 kados  anyway ... simple to revert this one file
08:50 kados  (to that branch)
08:50 kados  other times it's in cvs, but I didn't commit it :-)
08:50 kados  but it's not in cvs :-)
08:49 paul   yes, alas
08:49 kados  and I _swear_ I committed it ...
08:49 kados  nothing shows up on mailing list
08:49 kados  I"ve had problems with savannah cvs that look like this too
08:49 kados  yea ...
08:49 paul   I bet something went wrong, because the commit of 21:07 was for head, not for 2.2 (afaics)
08:47 kados  http://cvs.savannah.nongnu.org/viewcvs/koha/C4/Auth.pm?root=koha&only_with_tag=rel_2_2&r2=1.36.2.20&r1=1.36.2.19
08:45 kados  but enough to break getpatroninformation
08:45 kados  not too much was changed
08:45 kados  http://cvs.savannah.nongnu.org/viewcvs/koha/C4/Auth.pm?root=koha&only_with_tag=rel_2_2&r2=1.36.2.20&r1=1.36.2.19
08:45 kados  hi hdl :-)
08:44 hdl    hi kados
08:44 kados  hmmm, wait
08:44 kados  hdl: revert to version 1.36.2.19
08:43 kados  hi btw :-)
08:43 kados  and make sure he didn't commit any other HEAD stuff to rel_2_2
08:43 paul   (hello kados)
08:43 kados  and post to the koha-devel list
08:43 kados  we'd better rever those changes quick
08:42 kados  looks like tumer did
08:42 kados   yikes
08:40 hdl    Due to lack of a function getpatroninformation
08:40 paul   what kind of problem ?
08:40 hdl    I have a problem with Auth.pm
08:40 hdl    have someone recently committed on rel_2_2 ?
08:17 hdl    back
06:59 qiqo   then i updated the database
06:59 qiqo   then i copied the barcode module and pasted it to my koha directory
06:58 qiqo   what i did was, i downloaded koha via cvs
06:58 qiqo   ei, my barcode generator i working now
05:09 hdl    I will try and mail it to you If I can reach it
05:08 hdl    I hacked this code once for one of our customer. But can't get the code.
05:08 qiqo   hehe
05:08 hdl    Sorry. Still, it is a closer "guess" than the first number you had.
05:07 qiqo   *hehe
05:07 qiqo   now, instead of 84, i get 31 gege
05:07 qiqo   i think it didnt solve the problem with barcodes
05:06 qiqo   hdl
04:40 qiqo   ermm so ill be using 2.2.6RC now?
04:40 hdl    [09:18:32] <hdl> maybe comment -extn line
04:40 qiqo   let me try that
04:40 qiqo   okie
04:40 qiqo   ahhhh
04:39 hdl    [09:1
04:39 hdl    [09:16:32] <hdl> and change line 167 $codeC to $code
04:39 hdl    [09:15:39] <hdl>
04:39 hdl    [09:15:39] <hdl> comment out : lin 163 my $codeC = &checksum($code);
04:39 qiqo   yey
04:39 hdl    [09:14:18] alaurin [~alaurin@213.56.55.251] a rejoint #koha
04:39 hdl    [09:14:14] <hdl> It is hidden in barcodeGenerator.pl
04:39 hdl    [09:13:56] <hdl> I found the source of your problem, I think.
04:39 qiqo   so i missed your messages
04:39 qiqo   sorry we had a brownout here
04:39 hdl    yes
04:38 qiqo   hdl you there?
02:18 toins  salut hdl
02:18 hdl    hi toins
02:18 hdl    maybe comment -extn line
02:18 toins  hi #koha
02:17 hdl    qiqo : tell me what happens.
02:17 hdl    o dewey, pls shut up.
02:16 dewey  hdl: that doesn't look right
02:16 hdl    and change line 167 $codeC to $code
02:15 hdl    comment out : lin 163 my $codeC = &checksum($code);
02:14 hdl    It is hidden in barcodeGenerator.pl
02:13 hdl    I found the source of your problem, I think.
02:13 qiqo   im good, but my koha is not hehe
02:13 hdl    good what 'bout you ?
02:13 qiqo   how are you?
02:12 qiqo   hi hdl
02:12 qiqo   yes
02:12 btoumi hi all
02:11 hdl    qiqo : are you there ?
01:04 qiqo   so we still have older koha released at sourceforge?
00:44 qiqo   actually i was searching on the archives and i couldnt find any solution
00:44 rach   ok - you could try a mail to the koha-devel list as well for someone who might actually know about different barcode formats :-)
00:42 qiqo   ei youre a big help really, i think i have to experiment with the scripts
00:41 qiqo   hmm..
00:41 qiqo   ahh ok
00:35 rach   erm that I'm not sure about - sorry I'm not much help, it's after 5.30pm here in NZ, so there aren't many people about
00:33 qiqo   so how will i choose
00:33 rach   the barcodes will be conforming to a standard I think - so you'll need to choose the one that is most what you want
00:33 rach   I would think so
00:32 qiqo   from the formats?
00:32 qiqo   so i have to choose
00:30 rach   I don't know how many barcode formats there are to choose from
00:30 rach   so it may be that your numbers will all need to be in the format 840000000xx (where x = your digitis)
00:30 rach   the barcodes will be in a particular format - which I think you choose
00:29 qiqo   ok ill try to put 0000000000000000
00:29 rach   ie - do you think it might be that there aren't enough digits in your barcodes?
00:28 rach   or if you put in one that is qi000000017
00:28 rach   yep - but what happens if you put in a barcode that is 00000000001 - ie you put all the 0's in yourself?
00:27 qiqo   e.g . i have a book which has the barcode number 1, then when i print the barcodes on pdf it will be 840000000017
00:27 rach   does it still add some more to the front?
00:26 rach   so you put in one with the same number of digits as the barcode maker is wanting?
00:26 qiqo   yes.. and the last digits are different from the ones in the database
00:26 rach   what happens if you put in a number like 00000000017
00:26 qiqo   ermm if im not mistaken it was kados who urged me to try 2.2.6RC2
00:26 rach   ie has an 84 appended to the front
00:26 rach   so that's the barcode that you say up there - it's a different number
00:25 rach   did you get that advice off the list?
00:24 qiqo   so they advised me to go for 2.2.6RC2
00:24 qiqo   they said that 2.2.5 has a bad reputation when it comes to barcodes
00:23 qiqo   ive already used 2.2.5
00:23 qiqo   what i mean is the book which pertains to that barcode has a different barcode number
00:23 qiqo   the problem is when i printed the barcodes on paper and test the circulation module.,, the barcode is not recognized
00:15 rach   but why specifically 84  - and how you would change it I don't know -
00:14 rach   sorry I don't know why it's appending 84 to the begining - I have a thought that with other libraries we deal with they put something like that in for a check sum or similar
00:14 qiqo   hi rach
00:13 rach   hi
00:08 qiqo   how is this happening?
00:08 qiqo   for example i gave 0001 to a book at the cataloguing module, then when i print the codes it is translated into 84000000017
00:07 qiqo   i really dont understand,. i manually assigned barcode numbers but when i print the barcode sheets on pdf, the codes are changed
00:07 qiqo   can somebody enlighten me about the provision of barcode numbers?
18:49 thd    rise kados , you have forgotten you are sleepy
18:47 thd    kados: awake ?
13:11 kados  :-)
13:11 owen   I'm sure the internets have something for me to do
13:11 owen   No problem
13:11 kados  sorry owen ... this next bit may take a while
13:11 kados  mysql tuning actually works :-)
13:10 kados  wow, faster than I expected
13:10 kados  yea, the migration just reached the next stage :-)
13:10 owen   Stylesheets are gone from the OPAC
13:10 kados  ahh
13:10 kados  dunno, what's happening?
13:09 owen   Whoa, what just happened?
13:05 kados  true
13:05 owen   HTML::Template forces us to do some ugly things sometimes
13:04 kados  but I probably won't have a chance to do that before we go live :(
13:04 kados  eventually it'd be good to store them in the same loop
13:04 kados  if (amazon) { description } else if (marcnotes) { description}
13:03 kados  you can do it but it's ugly :-)
13:02 kados  so now we're down to two
13:02 kados  koha table notes shouldn't be used
13:01 owen   Koha table notes, MARC notes, and Amazon
13:01 kados  :-)
13:01 owen   We've got three different possibilities for descriptions data
13:01 owen   I'm not sure how we can hide the 'descriptions' tab when there are no descriptions
12:55 kados  yea ... I was still working on it yesterday
12:55 owen   I saw that "circulating" was appearing now where it wasn't yesterday
12:49 kados  I'm re-running the migration script so check on that tomorrow sometime
12:49 kados  though I'm pretty sure they won't show up right now
12:49 kados  they are exposed to the template
12:49 kados  instead of 'itemtype' they are now 'ccode'
12:49 kados  yea, they will still show up ...
12:48 owen   I think our old item type icons were helpful. How do those fit into things now?
12:48 kados  i think we'd need to do a lot of testing before we moved on that...but it will appear for sure this year at least
12:48 kados  yep
12:48 owen   That's not something that I'd rush into dev_week, certainly. I'm just trying to take stock of where we are.
12:47 kados  which is less than idea obviously
12:47 kados  right now the only way to do it is to have two separate records
12:47 kados  I think SAN has something like that working
12:47 kados  yea, I need to check HEAD for that
12:46 owen   Branches /sometimes/ have differing opinions on how stuff should be classified. Cataloging might put something in EASY and a branch wants it in JF. The more problematic situation is when you've got one branch putting a title in reference and another wants to circulate it.
12:45 kados  ie, there's no system of checks and balances in place to enforce them
12:45 kados  yea, though the relationships aren't dependent ...
12:45 owen   So what this gets us primarily is issuing rules for groups of item types
12:44 kados  or would it have a bearing on circ rules too?
12:44 kados  how is it useful to the branch to classify things differently ... strictly a collection code thing (ie, where it's shelved?)
12:44 kados  it's biblioitems.ccode
12:44 kados  yea, I was mistaken
12:44 kados  I haven't looked at the item-level reserves yet, which may also bear weight on the issue
12:43 owen   Oh, I thought you said it was items.ccode
12:43 kados  but I suppose we could make it items.ccode
12:43 kados  and biblioitems.ccode
12:43 kados  it's not items.itemtype ... it's biblioitems.itemtype
12:43 kados  no ...
12:42 kados  interesting
12:41 owen   I'm not sure this is related, but say we have a book which one branch wants to classify as "EASY" and one wants to classify as "JF" Is that doable now?
12:39 kados  but anyway, it works :-)
12:39 kados  or maybe not ... I'm not sure
12:39 kados  collection codes should be used for circulation rules
12:39 kados  really, the names are backwards I think
12:38 owen   Yeah
12:38 kados  make sense?
12:36 kados  items.itemtype has the new itemtypes which are based on the list you posted to the wiki
12:36 kados  and they are stored in items.ccode (or will be next time I run the migration script)
12:35 kados  there is an authorized value set up for the old itemtypes
12:35 kados  it's pretty simple really
12:35 kados  sure
12:35 owen   Hey, do you have time to talk about the new collection/itemtype stuff? I see some new info is appearing on opac-detail
12:34 kados  owen: am now
12:25 owen   kados: you around?
