16:39 waylon Okay.. need to make a script doing: for each file *.pl and *.pm, on the second line (first line being shebang), insert 'use lib' line.
16:41 waylon or i could find a global file editing tool. :)
16:49 waylon or, one can use find + xargs....
16:49 waylon http://www.healyourchurchwebsite.com/archives/000080.php
16:49 waylon Time to boot up my linux box.
17:44 waylon ah...
17:44 waylon find -name "*.pl" | xargs perl -pi -e "s/(bin\/perl)/bin\/perl\nuse lib \'\/home\/www\/wayrob.freehostia.com\/modules\'\;\n/gi";
17:44 waylon it was all over in a second.
17:45 waylon All modules have the 'use strict' line?
18:03 waylon modules done. now, on to editing the templates, to fit a scriptalias'less enviroment.
20:19 tnb    paul: what is the url for SAN-OP's catalog?  (hi, BTW :)
20:58 waylon Okay. uploading template files now.... seems to be going well. will know if this one virtual host system will work, soon.
21:49 waylon well.... uploaded mainpage.pl and that works.
02:00 waylon Well.. i did it.
02:00 waylon having used a free website host... Apache, mysql and perl, running on linux.... but that doesn't really matter.
02:01 waylon having no superuser access, just a normal user.
02:01 waylon no scriptalias.
02:01 waylon no virtual hosts.. so only one address.
02:01 waylon no PERL5LIB set, so i had to edit the .pl's and the .pm's using find and xarg..
02:02 waylon no shell access, so all mysql was imported via phpmysql.
02:02 waylon despite all these limitations.. koha is working!
02:11 waylon chris.. check your private messages on irc.
02:12 waylon and now that ive set up a free host, im going out for dinner... shutting down my computer. ah.. cool.

02:52 chris  excellent
02:52 kados  loads of really solid leads
02:52 chris  thats cool
02:52 chris  you going to the non-meeting thing tomorrow?
02:52 kados  in fact, so much activity we were losing leads
02:52 kados  yea, definitely
02:52 chris  ahh, you need more ppl on the stand eh?
02:52 kados  yea, and a bigger booth
02:52 chris  right
02:53 kados  I'm curious about the non meeting :-)
02:53 kados  so yea, I'm gonna show up, see how it goes
02:53 chris  yeah, it'd be interesting
02:53 kados  I forgot how much I love seattle
02:53 chris  its a nice place
02:54 kados  and I saw the bodies exhibit
02:54 kados  have you seen that advertised?
02:55 chris  hmm dont think so
02:55 kados  well, I'm not going to try to explain it cuz it's just weird ... let me find a linke
02:56 kados  http://www.bodiestheexhibition.com/
02:56 chris  ohh cool
02:56 chris  thatd be really interesting
02:56 kados  yea, it was ... kinda crepy though
02:56 kados  makes you think
02:58 kados  they have this incredible process for exhibiting the vascular system
02:58 kados  where they fill the veins and arteries with a polymer that's acid resistant
02:58 chris  ohh
02:58 kados  and then pour acid in
02:59 kados  all you're left with is the polymer
02:59 kados  it's amazing
02:59 chris  very tricky
02:59 kados  anyway ... I'm sure it'll make it to NZ eventually
02:59 kados  or will be somewhere you visit :-)
02:59 chris  yep, bound to, ill keep an eye out
03:00 kados  we got our first koha with class application today
03:00 chris  sweet, that didnt take long :)
03:00 kados  MARA University of Technology
03:00 kados  Scool of Information Management
03:00 kados  so that's myanmar I think
03:01 kados  .my ?
03:01 chris  malaysia
03:01 kados  ahh
03:01 kados  right
03:01 kados  hehe
03:01 kados  that's in your woods :-0
03:02 chris  yep, closish :)
03:02 kados  pretty cool anyway
03:02 chris  apart from you guys, and ID .. any other open source outfits?
03:02 kados  nope
03:02 chris  just the traditional vendors? what left of them anyway :)
03:02 kados  yea
03:03 kados  they are huge
03:03 chris  yep
03:03 kados  I spent friday afternoon talking to the guys setting up the huge booths
03:03 kados  most of them were contractors that designed the booths and set them up as a full time job
03:03 kados  as contractors
03:03 chris  right
03:04 kados  they get between 150 and 200K to build one
03:04 chris  thats why they have to charge so much for the software
03:04 kados  plus 15K per show to set them up abd break them down
03:04 kados  yea
03:06 chris  and the fulltime salary of conference booth people :)
03:06 kados  yea
03:07 chris  one of the main comments we always get
03:07 chris  is how refreshing it is to be able to talk to people who actually work on the software
03:07 kados  yea, normally they are so insulated
03:07 kados  we had a developer from serials solutions stop by and essentially say the same thing
03:08 kados  apparantly this is the first time in like 2 years he's even spoken to users
03:08 chris  right
03:08 chris  normally there is about 3 of 4 layers
03:08 chris  and i find ppl manning booths actually know very little about their products
03:09 chris  they basically read what is on their brochures to you :)
03:10 kados  :-)
03:12 chris  heh
