12:37 thd    slef, hdl: Which file is used to create the SQL tables on installation?
12:39 thd    s/tables/tables for Koha 3.0/
12:42 slef   thd: that's hdl's field, but I think it's ones under misc/sql-datas at present
12:44 thd    slef: I have been looking for where a new column has been added but I have failed to find the creation column in the source.
12:45 zsh    slef: at least now, its generating pdfs, but they only have the name of the author at the top and nothing else
12:46 owen   kados around?
12:47 thd    s/creation column/column creation/
12:49 zsh    slef: its working now
12:49 zsh    slef, masonj: Thanks for all the help!
12:50 masonj np :)
12:53 thd    slef: the file seems to be /misc/koha.mysql and the new column is not there
12:57 hdl    thd: it in installer
12:57 hdl    thd: it is in installer
12:57 hdl    kohatructure.sql
12:58 hdl    this create database strcuture.
12:58 hdl    this create database structure.
13:01 thd    hdl: kados asked me to add a column to the MARC 21 data file for default value but the file you identified has no such column
13:01 thd    and the UNIMARC data files have no such column
13:02 kados  hey owen
13:02 kados  hi all
13:02 hdl    hi
13:02 kados  thd: the file is kohastructure.sql, I sent you the link yesterday
13:02 hdl    thd: did you manage to use kohastructure.sql ?
13:03 hdl    (import.)
13:03 hdl    into mysql ?
13:03 hdl    Is there no default field in marc_subfield_structure ?
13:04 thd    hdl: no there is not
13:05 thd    kados: updating the data file was trivial as I said but I do not find that the column is being created
13:05 hdl    there should.
13:06 thd    kados: did you want me to add the column to kohastructure.sql?
13:08 kados  thd: it shoudl be there ...
13:08 thd    kados hdl: it is in head but not in 3.0
13:08 kados  thd: rel_3_0 is deprecated, use head please
13:09 thd    kados: OK
13:15 thd    hdl: I find there is no data column for defaultvalue in HEAD in /misc/sql-datas/fr/mandatory/framework_DEFAULT.sql
13:23 kados  thd: look at the english one
13:23 kados  thd: http://cvs.savannah.nongnu.org/viewvc/koha/installer/kohastructure.sql?root=koha&view=log
13:24 kados  http://cvs.savannah.nongnu.org/viewvc/koha/misc/sql-datas/en/mandatory/03_marc21_framework_DEFAULT.sql?root=koha&view=log
13:27 thd    kados hdl: should CREATE TABLE `marc_subfield_structure` have a default value for the defaultvalue column as (... `defaultvalue` text NOT NULL default '', ...) ?
13:27 kados  hdl could answer that better than I
13:28 thd    kados: I changed the English one locally last night but I started questioning whether I should commit when I did not see something similar in the French one
13:29 kados  hdl: does the french one not have defaultvalue?
13:29 thd    kados: and I had remembered to use HEAD but I became lost in my checkout directories just now
13:29 kados  maybe paul/hdl haven't committed the latest framework for french
13:30 kados  thd: thanks for working on this !
13:30 thd    kados: like I said this took only 2 regexes
13:35 kyle_  hey all
13:35 kyle_  Kados: you around?
13:35 thd    hello kyle_
13:36 thd    kyle: try lowercase kados
13:37 thd    kyle_: try lowercase kados
13:38 kados  hey kyle_
13:38 kados  kyle_: sup?
13:42 kados  kyle_: ?
13:47 kyle_  hey kados, I was wondering if it would be possible to put that vmware image of koha I made somewhere on savannah for users to download.
13:47 kados  right
13:47 kados  good question
13:47 kados  I'll check into it
13:47 kyle_  We just don't have the bandwidth to spare here, and bittorrent is a bit shaky.
13:47 kados  *nod*
13:47 kados  I'd like to add a more prominent link from the koha.org download page too
13:47 kados  to the vmware images
13:47 kyle_  I left my bittorrent client off and someone needed it this weekend, and couldn't download it.
13:48 kyle_  are there more vmware images?
13:48 kados  yea, there's another one
13:49 kados  floating out there somewhere
13:49 kyle_  cool. Who is in charge of creating the official releases that are downloaded from savannah?
13:50 kados  the RM
13:50 kados  OK, I can add it to here:
13:50 kados  http://download.savannah.nongnu.org/releases/koha/
13:50 kados  so long as savannah don't have a size limit
13:50 kados  how big is the file?
13:51 kyle_  407.6 MB
13:51 kados  and it's a vmware of 2.2.9?
13:52 kyle_  yes
13:52 kados  cool
13:52 kyle_  fresh install, ready to tweak
13:52 kados  ok, and where's the bittorent?
13:52 hdl    sorry... back
13:52 kados  I'll download it and attempt to upload to savannah
13:53 kyle_  You could even take that image, tweak it up, and release it as a more friendly way for techs to demo it to the high ups.
13:53 kados  I use parallels :-)
13:53 kyle_  sounds good.
13:53 kyle_  You could always have both?
13:53 kados  yea, but it's a time thing, ya know?
13:53 kados  so much to do already :-)
13:54 kados  y'know
13:54 kyle_  I know. Just a suggestion ; ) Maybe paul or someone else will do it.
13:54 kados  kyle_: you can probably upload it yourself:
13:54 kados  http://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/DownloadArea
13:54 kados  give that shot
13:54 kyle_  That sounds good.
13:54 kados  you've got cvs write, so shouldn't be a prob
13:55 kados  bittorrent.com isn't working for me
13:55 kados  anyway, I need to get some coffee
13:55 kados  bbiab
13:55 kyle_  the image I put on bittorrent.com? That one I've never been able to download.
13:55 kyle_  Later.
13:58 slef   kados: which modules is only used in the integrated Z39.50 client?  Net::Z3950 or Net::Z3950::ZOOM?
13:59 slef   Are vmware images distributable via GNU services?
14:02 hdl    thd : certainly not "NOT NULL" (default value can be null)
14:02 kados  slef: Net::Z3950 is no longer used
14:02 kados  slef: Net::Z3950::ZOOM is the only module needed
14:02 hdl    CREATE TABLE `marc_subfield_structure` ( ... `defaultvalue` text, ...)
14:02 hdl    à
14:02 hdl    CREATE TABLE `marc_subfield_structure` ( ... `defaultvalue` text NOT NULL default '', ...)
14:02 hdl    ou
14:02 hdl    CREATE TABLE `marc_subfield_structure` ( ... `defaultvalue` text default NULL, ...)
14:04 kados  slef: good question actually, I'm not sure
14:04 kados  kyle_: we should make sure it's OK to post vmware from gnu serices
14:04 kados  services even
14:05 hdl    thd `defaultvalue` text NULL
14:05 thd    hdl: why do the French sql-datas not have a value for defaultvalue?
14:06 hdl    you donot have always default values for instance for title, you cannot have default values.
14:07 thd    hdl: I mean why do the INSERT statements not include any value even NULL for the UNIMARC SQL data?
14:08 thd    s/value/value for defaultvalue/
14:09 hdl    because french data are really outdated...
14:09 hdl    We wanted to correct some things before committing and now everybody is on holiday
14:09 thd    hdl: do you use a file which you have not committed for your customers?
14:12 hdl    we only migrate from 2.2 to 3.0 at the moment.
14:12 thd    hdl: kados had error messages on installation and when editing the bibliographic framework because a value had not been defined as even NULL for data in the defaultvalue column
14:12 hdl    Err. Yes.
14:14 hdl    I was working on that when I had to reinstall mysql (damn innodb) and didnot export my kohastructure.
14:14 hdl    but updating database with updater should have done the job.
14:14 hdl    line 999 in updatedatabase
14:26 owen   What is this doing in z3950/searchresult.tmpl? var GB_ROOT_DIR = "http://mydomain.com/greybox/"
14:30 hdl    good question owen
14:31 hdl    rel30 ?
14:31 owen   rel_2_2
14:35 owen   Looks like it's only in npl
14:35 hdl    kados : with zoom do you use wild characters for research ?
14:36 hdl    if yes, how
14:36 hdl    wild characters such as _ * or ?
14:36 hdl    maybe you can anwer owen
14:36 hdl    answer even
14:43 owen   hdl, I /should/ know the answer to that, but I don't.
14:45 hdl    kados ?
14:45 dewey  rumour has it kados is just a bit tied up
14:46 hdl    dewey: botsnack
14:46 dewey  :)
14:48 kados  hdl: what's up?
14:48 kados  hdl: good question
14:48 kados  hdl: check the docs in bib1.att
14:48 hdl    when I asked on zebra
14:48 hdl    I was said to use att 5
14:49 hdl    But it is regex
14:49 hdl    and i don't think it is really user friendly
14:49 kados  hdl: check the english record.abs
14:49 hdl    some of our user were not at ease with the mouse.
14:49 kados  hdl: it has instructions for how to deal with that
14:50 kados  wait, not record.abs
14:50 kados  sec
14:50 kados  ccl.properties I think
14:50 kados  right
14:50 kados  ccl.properties
14:50 dewey  i think ccl.properties is about 1000 lines of config and documentation
14:51 kados  right-Truncation 5=1
14:51 kados  rt right-Truncation
14:51 kados  so you can add rt to a query and it will right-trucate
14:52 hdl    OK.
14:52 hdl    So we have to parse user entry and say : * is on the right, or on the left.... add rt or lt
14:52 kados  yep, makes sense to me
14:53 hdl    if I want to have T*n to match twain and tolkien
14:53 hdl    then it is regex.
14:53 kados  right
14:53 kados  you should also be able to set the char for regex
14:53 hdl    regex is really MUCH time consuming....
14:54 hdl    Much more than lt or rt
14:54 hdl    we should create a parsing function for zebra input
14:55 hdl    pb : how does it work with wrdl (wordlists) ?
14:55 kados  what's pb again?
14:56 hdl    the problem is
14:56 hdl    I have
14:56 hdl    I want to get
14:56 hdl    the house and the garden
14:57 hdl    for instance.
14:57 kados  ahh, just found what I was looking for
14:57 kados  # Truncation characters (it seems to take multiple arguments)
14:57 kados  @truncation ? *
14:57 kados  it's in ccl.properties
14:57 hdl    and i entry the h* and the garden
14:57 kados  around line 980 or so
14:58 kados  # Tokens for CCL operators (it seems you can assign multiple tokens per operator which is nice)
14:58 kados  @and and +
14:58 kados  @or or |
14:59 kados  so you could also remove 'and' as an operator if you wished, but we'd probably have to adjust he search functions
14:59 hdl    Good.
14:59 hdl    But truncation seems not to work at the moment.
14:59 kados  no?
15:01 kados  http://search.athenscounty.lib.oh.us/search?q=ccl=africa
15:01 kados  http://search.athenscounty.lib.oh.us/search?q=ccl=africa*
15:01 kados  second one picks up african too
15:01 kados  ccl= means you do a direct query of zebra, without the field weighting and relevance added
15:03 hdl    Ok.
15:04 hdl    but if you type ccl=kw:africa*
15:04 hdl    then it fails
15:05 kados  ZOOM error 10014 "CCL parsing error" (addinfo: "Right truncation not supported")
15:05 kados  that's because kw doesn't have a definition for handling right truncation
15:06 kados  Any 1=1016
15:06 kados  kw Any
15:06 kados  from ccl.properties
15:06 kados  if we add support for truncation it will work
15:07 kados  so if we made:
15:07 kados  Any 1=1016 5=1
15:07 kados  it should work
15:07 kados  but I don't want to do that because it will change my api design for dev_week
15:07 hdl    Strange :
15:08 hdl    ccl=kw,wrdl:"afr* South" returns One Book
15:09 kados  that is strange
15:09 kados  because wordl is 4=6
15:09 kados  structure, which shouldn't use *
15:13 hdl    there is also word.chr that maps * with space.
15:13 hdl    Wo which is taken into account
15:14 hdl    s/Wo/So/
15:14 hdl    ?
15:19 kados  good question
15:19 kados  we should remove that mapping I think
15:19 kados  just to make it clear that * is a reserved word
15:19 kados  if you change word.chr you have to re-index
16:00 slef   my brain has now melted
16:00 slef   I think that was obvious from koha.lists.katipo already
16:00 slef   It's been a bad day, please don't take my picture.

17:47 kados  slef: http://search.cpan.org/src/VIY/HTML-Template-Pro-0.65/FAQ
17:47 kados  slef: I didn't switch to HTML::Template::Pro ... I believe that decision was made on the French side
17:47 kados  slef: and I'm not entirely clear on the motivation there
17:48 kados  hdl: do you know?
18:04 owen   "I don't know if you 've noticed this great feature embedded in HTML::Template::Pro.
18:04 owen   HTML::Template::Pro is written from HTML::Template AND HTML::Template::Expr ( http://search.cpan.org/~samtregar/HTML-Template-Expr-0.07/Expr.pm ).
18:04 owen   So all the features from HTML::TEMPLATE::Expr are enabled for us.
18:04 owen   Briefly, this module allows expressions in the template syntax.
18:04 owen   Expressions includes comparisons, math operations, string operations and others... " -- Antoine Farnault, 11/17/2006
18:14 kados  yea, that's neat, we need to be careful not to get too much logic in the template though
18:14 kados  but useful for sure
18:15 owen   I don't even know if any of that functionality is but to use in any of the new templates
18:16 jaron  kados: I'm trying to get my script to insert records directly into koha using bulkmarcimport.pl. Any ideas on how to do this without messing with typing in a password each time?
18:16 kados  jaron: the kohaadmin password?
18:16 kados  is that the password you mean?
18:17 kados  and is this a perl script, I can't recall
18:17 jaron  well the script is run as a specific user and I was just trying to use a backticks system call to run bulkmarcimport.pl
18:17 kados  right
18:17 kados  well you could use C4::Context
18:17 jaron  not perl but I could call a perl script instead if that'd be better.
18:17 kados  for the database connection
18:18 kados  then so long as KOHA_CONF was defined you wouldn't need to use the user/pass
18:18 jaron  and KOHA_CONF points to /etc/koha.conf?
18:18 kados  yep
18:18 kados  so you'd go:
18:18 owen   Hi Apple
18:18 owen   kyle: are you there?
18:18 kados  $ export KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha.conf
18:18 jaron  ok let me give that a try
18:19 jaron  thanks, kados
18:19 kados  $ perl -I /path/to/koha /path/to/myscrip.pl
18:19 kados  hi jablko
18:19 jaron  I see what you mean now.
18:22 jaron  and /path/to/koha would be something like /usr/local/koha and that's it?
18:24 kados  it's wherever your modules dir is that has C4 in it
18:24 kados  so probably more like
18:24 kados  /usr/local/koha/intranet/modules if you are running a default installation
18:25 jaron  yeah, that's where they are. cool.
18:42 [K]    *** join #koha@FreeNode: Presently42 n=Presentl@bas2-montreal02-1096701373.dsl.bell.ca
18:45 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> I'm having some trouble setting up the koha-httpd.conf file. The server running koha is connocted to a router. I also have a domain-name associated with the server. However, when I go to this address, I get the router setup page and not koha. It seems like the router isn't routing the data to the server. Is help available some where? I'm using Debian unstable. Thanks.
18:46 kados  hi Presently42
18:47 kados  what kind of router do you have?
18:47 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> Tis a siemens slipstream something or other.
18:48 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> SpeedStream 6520 Series
18:50 kados  hmmm
18:50 kados  sounds like you might need to do some network troubleshooting
18:52 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> I see. How shall I begin?
18:52 kados  can you poing the domain name associated with your server?
18:52 kados  ping I mean
18:53 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> Interesting. Apparently I can't.
18:53 kados  I'd say that's the first thing to fix :-)
18:54 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> Good idea! But, how might I go about such a feat?
18:54 kados  hehe
18:54 kados  sounds like you need a network admin :-)
18:55 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> Pfui! :) I will learn and manage.
18:55 kados  :-)
18:56 kados  Presently42: what library do you work at?
18:56 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> Me own. This library is my collection.
18:56 kados  ahh, cool
18:56 kados  have you seen librarything? might be easier than running your own
18:57 kados  ILSes are pretty complex :-)
18:57 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> Librarything? Can't say as I have.
18:57 kados  http://www.librarything.com/
18:57 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> This I know!
18:57 kados  it's pretty cool, especially for personal collections
18:58 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> I have volunteered at a library and I know how complexe they are. But, I like complexity. ;)
18:58 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> I will look.
18:59 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> "Enter 200 books for free, as many as you like for $10 (year) or $25 (life)." I have far more than 200.
18:59 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> That's one of the reasons that I went with a full ILS.
18:59 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> But, I do thank you for the suggestion.
19:01 owen   $25 for life seems pretty cheap to me, especially when I consider the time it would take me to set up Koha on my own :)
19:02 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> Aye, but why pay if I can do it for free? And, I did have every thing working. I used those lovely howtos on the wiki.
19:03 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> In fact, this all started when I changed the way the server connects to the internet. In lieu of having it connect directly, I made it call dhcp and get on internal ip fron the router. THough this make it easior to find it's ip (if it changes, I can't ssh in to it and I don't have a monitor or key-board attached) if it should change.
19:04 kados  sounds like you need to set up NAT in your router to do IP translation
19:04 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> , it means that I broke the system.
19:04 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> Aha
19:04 kados  :-)
19:05 [K]    <Presently42@FreeNode> Let me see if I can figure that out.
19:06 jaron  kados: even with exporting the environment variables I keep getting a "read_config_file(/etc/koha.conf) returned undef at /usr/local/koha/intranet/modules/C4/Context.pm line 229." error and then failed access for the user running the script
19:06 kados  sounds like maybe /etc/koha.conf isn't there?
19:06 jaron  it's there
19:07 kados  what permissions does it have?
19:07 kados  ls -la /etc/koha.conf
19:07 jaron  www-data
19:07 kados  and the permissions?
19:07 jaron  read by user and group
19:08 kados  and are you in the group?
19:09 jaron  probably not. I'll change that and see.
19:10 kados  or if the box is secured you could just chmod 644 /etc/koha.conf
19:13 jaron  ok, adding user to group did nothing, but making it readable by everyone worked.
19:13 thd    I had to do that for Koha to run the first time
19:14 thd    kados: what changes did you make to the 1.3 CVS version of http://cvs.savannah.nongnu.org/viewvc/koha/misc/sql-datas/en/mandatory/03_marc21_framework_DEFAULT.sql?root=koha&view=log
19:14 jaron  ok
19:15 thd    kados: the diff seems to be having trouble and that file is based on an out of date version of the framework
19:15 kados  hmmm
19:16 thd    kados: that file is missing several corrections which I had made in August and September
19:16 kados  the change was just to validate the POD to fix the make utility
19:16 kados  thd: I'd say use yours and I can re-apply the validation to the POD
19:16 kados  it only took about 2-3 minutes
19:17 thd    kados: I see the note but what did that file have to do with POD as it is an SQL file
19:17 kados  don't remember :-)
19:17 kados  maybe it was done be accident
19:17 kados  s/be/by/
19:18 thd    I suspect you saved it with a new date but has no actual differences to the previous CVS version
19:24 thd    kados: thanks to my internal versioning header to keep various forms of the framework in sync I caught the fact that it was based on internal version 0.1.5 from August while I had last updated to internal version 0.2.1 in September

21:12 masonj hiya joshua
21:21 chris  morning
21:23 kados  hey chris
21:44 hdl    kados :
21:45 hdl    H:T:Pro was chosen to fix some utf8 encoding problems.
21:45 hdl    This is the Main reason.
21:45 hdl    Logic is a bonus.
21:45 hdl    But to be used carefully.
21:45 chris  still awake hdl? :)
21:46 hdl    for a little while.
21:46 hdl    Passing by
21:47 chris  :)
21:47 hdl    used carfuly becaus for instance, if you use <TMPL_IF EXPR="this and that"> both this AND that have to be defined (passed to the template)
21:47 hdl    nite all
21:47 chris  night hdl

22:06 ryan   thd: around ?
22:06 thd    yes ryan
22:06 ryan   are you well versed in lc call numbers ?
22:06 thd    yes
22:07 ryan   quick q, then :)
22:09 ryan   the class number must be an integer, right ?
22:10 ryan   BF449 G36   and  BF449. G36  are improperly formatted versions of  BF449 .G36
22:10 ryan   correct ?
22:11 thd    not necessarily
22:15 ryan   ok, so you can have decimal in class number...
22:16 thd    ryan: yes but I found 050 00 $aBF449$b.G36 1999
22:17 thd    ryan: In 245 10 $aApollo root cause analysis : $ba new way of thinking / $cDean L. Gano.
22:17 ryan   i am having a sorting problem
22:18 thd    ryan: so in this case the decimal is preceding the cutter number for Gano
22:18 ryan   the regexp i'm using is having a tough time with the decimal in the wrong place.
22:20 thd    ryan: you might also have a number where there is a decimal in the classification part in 050 $a including with letters
22:20 ryan   it doesn't handle white space well
22:20 ryan   right
22:20 thd    ryan: is it the white space or the decimal which is causing the problem?
22:21 thd    ryan: are you using the LC number sorting code which tumer wrote?
22:22 ryan   no
22:22 ryan   maybe i'll have a look at that instead.
22:22 thd    ryan: I would look at that, he invested much time in padding everything so that sorting worked
22:23 thd    ryan: normalisation and padding is essential for sorting LCC numbers
22:23 ryan   cool, thx for the help, thd
22:24 thd    ryan: given the nature of his collection, I suspect that his sorting routine works well
22:25 ryan   well, hopefully his catalogers are sloppy with formatting
22:26 thd    ryan: I think he is using many records directly from LC with the call number as assigned by LC
22:27 ryan   yeah, i seem to have any combination of whitespace or decimals acting as delimiters
22:27 ryan   easy to correct by eye :)
01:34 jablko how do i create a new holding using bibliographic information from amazon?
01:38 chris  umm, apart from cut and paste? :)
01:39 chris  can you get a marc record from amazon?
01:50 kados  i think they started doing that recently actually
01:50 chris  in that case, you can use that, load it into the reservior and add it from there
01:50 kados  in any case, you could certainly convert the xml from web services into marc pretty easily
02:09 jablko kados: chris: thanks
02:09 jablko i read somewhere amazon integration was a feature of koha 3?
02:13 jablko what the librarians i'm supporting want is, when a new book arrives
02:13 jablko scan the isbn and most of the koha fields are populated by data from amazon or congress library...
02:14 chris  you can do that now
02:14 chris  with the library of  congress
02:14 chris  or any library that offers a Z3950 server
02:14 jablko ah, thanks chris
02:14 chris  you just set up your servers you want to search in the koha administration section, go to cataloging
02:15 chris  enter your isbn in the appropriate marc tag 020 off the top of my head
02:15 chris  and the hit z3950 search
02:15 chris  and it will attempt to find all th marc records it can that match that
02:15 chris  (works with title too)
02:16 chris  then you can pick the one you want, and ur marc fields will then be prefilled with that info
02:16 jablko awesome, that's what i want!
02:16 jablko not seeing the options yet
02:16 jablko guess doesn't come with a z3950 server configured
02:17 jablko i'm working on a patch to support configuring the intranet / opac, cgi / html base urls
02:17 chris  cool
02:17 jablko sent a message to koha-devel
02:18 jablko who is the right person to provide feedback if the patch is acceptable?
02:18 jablko if i'm doing it right...
02:18 chris  if you do it against a cvs checkout as well, then it will be able to be used for 3.0 too
02:18 jablko so far it's working for us here at the university
02:18 chris  if its for 3.0 .. then kados is the release manager and im QA manager so either of us
02:18 jablko i thought koha was developed with git?
02:19 jablko great!
02:19 chris  it will be eventually :)
02:19 jablko ah
02:19 chris  still using cvs at savannah
02:19 jablko i was reading the developer wiki
02:19 jablko k
02:19 chris  rel_2_2 is the 2.2.x branch in cvs
02:19 chris  HEAD = 3.0
02:20 jablko is head installable?
02:20 chris  mostly :)
02:20 jablko (i understand it will be unstable)
02:20 jablko k
02:20 chris  it takes some effort but we are working on it, we should have an unstable release out soon
02:21 jablko you or kados have any feedback on my approach to configuring base urls?
02:21 chris  lemme go look at the email
02:21 jablko i'm almost done fixing it for 2.2
02:22 jablko if you think it's good, i'll checkout cvs head
02:22 jablko http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.education.libraries.koha.devel/1
02:23 chris  looks good to me
02:23 jablko http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.koha/7969
02:23 kados  chris: looks like we got some good patches submitted by devin
02:23 kados  and jack bates too
02:23 chris  thats who we are talking too :)
02:24 kados  ahh, cool
02:24 kados  hi jablko
02:24 jablko hi kados
02:24 kados  jablko: very excited about those patches
02:24 jablko thanks
02:24 chris  i need to get devin to patch against not 2.2.8 tho
02:24 kados  yea, or else give him commit access
02:24 chris  ive had to edit patches before applying them
02:24 kados  ahh
02:24 chris  just patching against cvs, guarantees its the latest version
02:25 kados  *nod*
02:25 kados  man, I've really had a long day, my eyes are actually sore :(
02:25 chris  applying patches is easy, i dont mind doing that
02:25 kados  I should rest them a bit
02:25 chris  as long as i dont have to edit them :)
02:25 kados  jablko: very excited about your participation!
02:26 kados  tata for now
02:26 chris  yep that all looks good, as long as the variables are passed through to the templates should work just fine
02:27 jablko thanks kados
02:28 jablko chris: the cvs module is "koha"?
02:28 jablko i assume
02:28 chris  thats the one
02:31 chris  sfu is in BC ?
02:32 chris  Koha has a long history in BC
02:32 chris  the second library to use it after the one who it was developed for, was in BC Canada
02:32 chris  and afaik they are still using it
02:32 jablko where is that?
02:32 dewey  it has been said that that is the only case though
02:33 jablko which library?
02:33 chris  coastal mountain school district
02:33 chris  a bunch of school libraries
02:33 jablko awesome
02:34 jablko the bc plsb recently went with evergreen i think
02:34 chris  Steve Tonnessen from there, did a bunch of work on Koha
02:34 chris  yep, i think they are in progress of getting it up and going
02:34 jablko we tried it but was quite difficult to install
02:37 chris  *nod*
02:38 chris  if you can get ur patch going against head ... i think kados has a tarball that makes installing it easier (ill ask him tomorrow)
02:38 chris  that would be fantastic, and ill apply it and commit it
02:38 chris  then when 3.0 is out and you upgrade, it will all be waitng for ya :)
02:42 chris  and if you ever want an nz koha developer to come give a talk at SFU .. im always keen for another excuse to visit canada :-)
02:42 jablko wow
02:43 jablko awesome!
02:43 jablko thanks : )
02:43 jablko how is the tarball built?
02:43 jablko is it something i could do from my cvs working copy?
02:47 chris  that im not sure, i think its something kados put together with some instructions too
02:48 jablko ok, thanks
02:48 chris  he'll probably read back :)
02:48 jablko : )
03:16 chris  he'll probably read back :)
03:16 chris  doh
03:24 jablko chris: ping
03:25 jablko according to the wiki:
03:25 jablko http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=servershelp
03:25 jablko koha should come with the loc z3950 server configured
03:25 jablko but with 2.2.9 i guess this is not the case
03:25 jablko unfortunately the wiki doesn't describe how to set it up
03:25 jablko i found the loc info:
03:26 jablko http://www.loc.gov/z3950/lcserver.html
03:26 jablko but i'm not sure about all the koha add z3950 options
03:26 chris  ok, if you go to system admin/koha admin
03:27 chris  right
03:27 jablko e.g. syntax: marc21 or unimarc
03:27 chris  you want marc21 for LOC
03:27 chris  unimarc is mostly used in europe
03:30 jablko ah
03:30 jablko i think i found the values in:
03:30 jablko scripts/updater/updatedatabase
03:30 chris  ah ha
03:30 jablko but they're not in koha.mysql
03:31 jablko so they're not installed with 2.2.9
03:31 chris  yep updatedatabase should be run as part of the install
03:31 jablko shoot
03:32 chris  maybe it didnt get run right
03:32 chris  hmm ill hve to check that out
03:32 chris  http://www.kohadocs.org/usersguide/ch01s02.html#d0e1047
03:32 chris  might or might not be helpful :)
03:34 jablko thanks chris
03:34 jablko trying to run updatedatabase manually now
03:34 chris  make sure you back up ur db first :)
03:34 jablko thanks
03:46 jablko chris: i guess the problem is updatedatabase:1582
03:46 jablko unless ( $existingtables{'z3950servers'} ) {
03:46 jablko z3950servers is in koha.mysql
03:47 jablko so the loc row doesn't get added
03:47 chris  ah ha, yeah that would do it
05:40 jablko chris: ping
05:40 jablko making progress on the loc / z3950 front
05:40 jablko now i'm getting an error about ZOOM.pm
05:40 jablko where is this file supposed to come from?
05:42 masonj hiya, try a 'cpan Net::Z3950::ZOOM' , that might do it
05:51 jablko masonj: thanks!
05:52 masonj always a pleasure...
07:32 hdl    hi
