Time Nick Message 01:16 chris_n2 @wunder 28334 01:18 * chris_n2 looks around for munin 04:24 Amit heya pianohacker 04:25 pianohacker Hi Amit 06:45 kmkale Good afternoon 07:02 magnus good morning! ;-) 08:01 pianohacker good night 08:19 Amit heya kmkale 08:30 kmkale HI amit 09:00 cait hi #koha 09:08 jransom hi all 09:09 jransom do we have Koha meetings in early June? 09:31 magnus jransom: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/General_Meeting,_June_2_2010 09:34 jransom Thank you :) 09:34 jransom I couldn't find it onthe koha-community calendar 09:39 magnus looks like there is no handover meeting scheduled: http://stats.workbuffer.org/irclog/koha/2010-05-04#i_433675 09:41 * magnus ponders better ways to name the meetings, so http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Category:IRC_Meetings could make more sense 09:42 magnus jransom: yep, looks like it needs to be added to the calendar 09:44 jransom yeah no community meeting planned 10:34 chris theres the general meeting 10:35 chris no really anything to talk about in the handover meeting that cant be handled in the general meeting 10:36 jransom i was talking with magnus along the same lines 10:36 jransom did you see how many we updated today? 10:40 magnus just curious: what are you updating? ;-) 10:41 jransom we are reregistering our borrwers - updating the borrowers database and issuing new cards 10:42 jransom and its insanely busy - like 5 fulltime staff reregistering all day, queues of people, 10:42 jransom and they all want to chat and look at the new site 10:42 jransom so its useful and fun and important but killing us staffing wise. 10:43 chris 503 today 10:43 jransom since are a 15 FTE orgs over 3 sites, hence why 3 on desk and 5 registering at 1 branch alone is nt sustainable 10:43 jransom cool :) 10:43 jransom heaps more than yesterday 10:44 jransom i'm still editing data from yesterday -havnt started on todays but I am hoping after the growling they all got this morning that it will be heaps better quality 10:44 chris :) 10:44 magnus that traffic probably wont last for ever, though? ;-) 10:45 jransom no 10:45 jransom but we havnt really started advertising yet either 10:45 jransom we hope to get 20,000 dne over next 3 months 10:55 magnus that's a lot of people 10:56 chris close to 30k in the db at the mo 10:56 chris was closer to 40 before we did a clean out in the upgrade 10:57 chris so i reckon will be somewhere round 35ish after the reregistrations 10:57 chris thats my guesstimate 10:58 magnus and koha is holding up under the pressure, of course? 10:58 chris its mostly typing, it doesnt really touch koha much at all 11:02 magnus which is good of course - a bad design might have meant lots of stress on the system from that level of activity... 11:03 chris well thats pretty low activity really :) 11:04 chris did 1514 issues and 1607 returns at the same time 11:11 gmcharlt @quote random 11:11 chris no munin 11:12 gmcharlt yep, trying to figure out what happened to it 11:13 gmcharlt @quote random 11:13 munin gmcharlt: Quote #49: "wizzyrea: KOHAKONG: Stomping all other ILS's" (added by a user that is no longer registered at 11:20 AM, December 22, 2009) 11:15 gmcharlt chris: in case you haven't seen already, check your IRC logs; somebody was asking last Friday or so about working on fastcgi 11:15 jransom all went well until half the town lost power 11:16 jransom hi galen :) 11:16 chris gmcharlt: ah yep, ive kinda moved on to plack now 11:16 gmcharlt enh request: supply spot power generator with each Koha database 11:16 gmcharlt hi jransom 11:16 gmcharlt congratulations on your go-live, btw 11:17 chris oh i meant to ask, did the reporter guy do an article btw? 11:18 jransom not yet but he will 11:18 jransom but ... 11:19 chris ah thats right, its only published once a week now eh? 11:19 jransom the dominion post may be doing an article for the weekend magazine insert about HLT and how we are doing things differently, and compare it to wgtn and tauranga and the other high profile libraries who have been told to save money / raise money. 11:19 chris ohhh nice 11:19 jransom so that will have to be played very carefully to not get wgtn feeling cornered 11:20 chris i had to be politic talking to him, cos the chronicle is an apn paper :) 11:20 chris didnt tell him i work on stuff :) 11:20 jransom fair enough 11:21 chris you're in pittsburgh gmcharlt ? whereabouts are you staying? 11:21 gmcharlt in the Oakland area, AKA the U of Pitt district 11:21 chris yep, i know the area 11:22 chris its near cmu too 11:22 gmcharlt yup 11:23 chris if you get a chance the art museum is really really cool 11:24 chris i liked the natural history one too, but i like museums in general :) 11:24 gmcharlt :) 11:25 gmcharlt I've been there several times; I like the cathedral of learning 11:26 chris west view is way out of your way, but thats where laurel is from, and they have a great diner there, islays 11:26 chris isaly even 11:29 chris http://www.pittsburghcitypaper.ws/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid:19667 11:29 chris its like a step back in time 11:31 chris http://photos.bigballofwax.co.nz/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=2535 <-- isalys full of nzers :) 11:31 gmcharlt diners++ 11:33 gmcharlt anyway, off to work 11:34 chris good luck, hope it all goes well 11:59 jransom rights me - good night all 12:06 * jdavidb says, "harrrumph!" and flops into his chair. 12:09 * jwagner doesn't have the energy to harrumph.... 12:13 owen Hi #koha 12:14 owen Did everyone get lots of work done with no 'muricans around yesterday? 12:14 jwagner morning, owen 12:53 francharb hello all 12:54 francharb is there anyone who already used the HOLD_PRINT notice? 12:54 francharb I can't find where to use it... 12:56 francharb if by any chance you find out, just let me know, thanks! 12:56 francharb :) 12:56 jwagner francharb, see But 3482 -- you need a HOLD_PRINT notice file & a cron job 12:56 jwagner Bug 3482 even 12:56 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3482 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, gmcharlt, NEW, Print overdue and hold notices for patrons without email addresses 12:57 francharb great! thanks jwagner!! 12:58 francharb i check this out! 12:59 jwagner Note that there was a later bug from the work BibLibre did expanding the print notices; I think a patch has been pushed for that so if you're up to date you should be OK. 13:00 francharb ok thanks 13:04 chris_n g'morning 13:04 owen Hi chris_n 13:48 reva Hi We are the Antigua and Barbuda Bureau of Standards. We tested the staff client demos of Koha (Express and the one profiled for public libraries) at the liblime site. We run Windows XP workstations on a Peer Group Lan Ethernet enabled topology. What is the latest version of stable and free version of Koha for Windows? 13:49 reva Is the z 39.50 search and import function working with this version on the Windows install? 13:52 reva Anyone able to respond to my above query on Koha Library Management System? 13:53 magnus reva: i'm trying to find something recent on koha and windows... 13:53 sekjal reva: are you looking to install Koha on a Windows server, or just access it from Windows machines? 13:54 reva just on work station console, but making it our "server". 13:54 reva Thanks for answering:). 13:55 magnus of course: koha is 100% web based, so you could run it on a linux server (or a virtual linux server on a windows host) and access everything you need through a browser (preferably Firefox for the staff functions) on any client 13:56 reva I am not familiar with linux install and configure and of course, virtualization will be very new to us here. We have Windows xp workstation, and they are Ethernet connected. 13:57 owen I wonder if anyone is using Koha in production with a VM setup? 13:57 magnus i think this is a very detailed, techy status of Koha on windows: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/StrawberryPerl 13:58 magnus owen: i run mine on slicehost - that's vm, but i don't own the hardware 13:58 jdavidb owen: Aside from cloud virtualization, we're not. Got a bunch of test servers in VMs, but no production. 13:58 reva So thinking of dedicating one of the workstation consoles as a server and installing Koha, MySQL, and Apache on it as the documents and instruction pages on the web site says. 13:58 owen reva: Setting up Koha on Windows via a virtual machine is not too difficult 13:58 jcamins owen: We are. 13:58 jcamins It's not pretty. 13:59 owen jcamins: :( 13:59 jcamins We are going to be outsourcing our catalog very soon. 13:59 owen jcamins: Too slow? What's not pretty about it? 14:00 jcamins The major problem is that our host machine (a Mac) doesn't like VirtualBox, so every day or so, it crashes hard. 14:00 reva I will check out the link, Magnus. Ok how would I go about setting it up? I have someone who may be able to help me. 14:00 wizzyrea well I probably wouldn't do a production install in a VM 14:00 jcamins The other problem is that we ran out of space, several times, but that could happen if you only had a 5gig drive on a physical server, too. 14:00 wizzyrea uh, yea 14:00 wizzyrea that would do it 14:01 magnus reva: i think you should get in touch with chris - but he's in nz - he'll probably be here in 4-5 hours 14:01 owen wizzyrea: I just wondered if there is any size collection that would be small enough to recommend it as a possibility 14:01 reva Ok first off, the ABBS (that is our Bureau of Standards here) can only go in for Open Source. Isn't VMbox proprietary? 14:01 jdavidb we've got some VMWare virtualization going on, and our big problem is that at near-peak loads, all the VMs on a box are a leetle bit sensitive to what's going on with the busiest one. (when the ArchivalWare devs do something, it slows our box, and vice versa.) 14:02 jcamins If you limited yourself to one virtual machine, I don't see why it wouldn't work (we have an internal VM, which is copied to the external VM every few weeks), provided you can avoid the whole "host machine crashing hard" issue. 14:02 jcamins And plan ahead for space requirements. 14:02 jcamins VirtualBox is open source, I think. 14:02 reva Ok, Magnus. i will try again in a few hours to see if Chris is logged on. 14:03 owen reva: http://www.virtualbox.org/ 14:03 magnus reva: i *think* he's the one who knows the most about koha on windows 14:03 owen No, chris isn't the one to ask about Koha on Windows 14:03 reva Another thing, at this point I am not even clear about which is the latest version of Open Source Koha. Is it 3.2 or 3.0.6? 14:04 magnus owen: oops? 14:04 magnus reva: 3.0.6 is the latest *stable* release 14:04 owen chris_n I think is the one who was working with Strawberry Perl 14:05 reva Owen, the Koha community newsletter had an article on 3.2 alpha release on May 4th. But their download site says the latest community supported version is 3.0.6. So we are confused. 14:05 owen reva: the "alpha" means it is not stable yet 14:06 reva Thanks Magnus for that 3.0.6 clarification. 14:06 owen 3.0.6 is the latest *stable* version 14:06 magnus oops - my eyes slipped on the revision history in the wiki: http://wiki.koha-community.org/w/index.php?title=StrawberryPerl&action=history sorry, reva: chris_n is the guy you want 14:06 reva Oh, I did not know that that was what alpha meant. 14:07 magnus but then, HLT have just gone live on alpha... http://koha-community.org/horowhenua-library-trust-new-koha-launched-3-2-alpha2/ 14:08 reva Ok, I will contact chris_n, Magnus. When is he likely to be around in the chatroom? 14:08 magnus i would go for the 3.2 alpha 2 version, but that's just me... 14:08 magnus reva: he was here about an hour ago, probably just busy with something else 14:09 reva Lots of good leads in those links you have provided, Magnus. I never receive any responses from either Koha community contact page (filled out form twice) or their win32 forum. 14:10 owen reva: "Koha community contact page?" 14:10 owen Where do you mean? 14:11 reva Do you know whether it has Windows release? And is the Z39.50 search and import working (in either 3.0.6 or the alpha 3.2)? 14:13 owen reva: Were you submitting this form? http://koha.org/contact-info 14:13 magnus or this one? http://koha-community.org/get-involved/ 14:13 reva I meant the Koha.org contact page, not the koha-community.org page. But I registered at the Koha-community.org about a week ago so I can ask questions. But the server is yet to send me a link to click on! 14:13 owen I can't imagine the owners of koha.org answer support requests via their contact form 14:14 owen (nor should they, since there is a mailing list and an IRC channel) 14:14 reva Yeah, magnus., that is the link (http://koha.org/contact-info) I filled out form and submitted two times but no one has responded. 14:15 magnus i too tried to register at http://koha-community.org/ today, but i have not gotten the confirmation email (and it's not in spam either) 14:16 owen wizzyrea: Have you ever gotten a submission from the "for library users" form? 14:17 reva Wizzyrea, I am not sure where I would find "for library users" form. I have filled out a few forms by now, so I am a little confused:). 14:17 owen reva: My question was directed at wizzyrea 14:19 reva I check the spam, no it is not there either for me. The funny thing is when I tried to re-register, it would not allow me the same name as that was already reserved for another user. So something wrong that it knows there is a registration under that name, but did not send any confirmation link to the email address. 14:21 reva sorry, Maguns, mistook it for me, getting cross-eyed looking at the chat screen name tags:) 14:22 wizzyrea 1. there is no request help form on k-c.org 14:23 wizzyrea I think reva is talking about koha.org. 14:23 wizzyrea and no one answers requests from koha.org anymore 14:23 wizzyrea that I know of 14:23 owen I wonder if anyone ever answered support questions submitted to koha.org? 14:23 wizzyrea no clue 14:25 wizzyrea magnus: sometimes the k-c.org emails get tagged as spam 14:25 wizzyrea :( 14:25 wizzyrea and sometimes rejected altogether 14:26 reva Not only that, someone out there administering the listserv for koha for win32 needs to check their server. There are only archives (though there are posts from May 2010), but no place to post anything. I emailed the general address given and have not heard yet.So I wait for chris_n to get some clarifications? 14:27 magnus wizzyrea: i'm using Gmail, and it's not in the spam folder (unless it's cleverly disguised with a subject like "OFFICIAL WINNING NOTIFICATION!!!" or something like that ;-) 14:27 reva I searched my spam box using koha as the keyword. Maybe suggest some other keyword? 14:27 libtek Good morning. 14:28 owen reva: Did you sign up for the mailing list here? http://lists.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/koha-win32 14:28 reva maguns, that was funny. my gmail spam box did not have anything but winning lottery numbers either:). 14:29 magnus hehe - the spam-folder is truly a treasure trove... 14:29 * owen wonders how to get a record's biblionumber into the XSL view 14:29 reva owen, that is the one I signed up for. But there is no response to the all member query I emailed. Nor can I find it in the archive as unanswered. I am not sure I know the protocol for list servs; I am more of a forum person. 14:30 libtek I'm about to report what appears to be a bug. I have 3.00.06, and the holds over tab in the Holds Awaiting Pickup section of circulation appears to be broken. The tab is there, but when I click on it, the page displays an error in the status bar, and the page never displays. 14:31 owen It doesn't look like anyone is answering questions on the koha-win32 mailing list. 14:32 reva At our Bureau we do not circulate material. We are mainly interested for now in the Cataloging module and the OPAC. Ours is a small library and mostly we fetch standards for industry patrons for "a small fee". 14:32 wizzyrea magnus what username did you try to register with? You can msg me if you want 14:32 libtek IE8 shows the error. Firefox 3.6.3 doesn't even acknowledge a problem. It does not do anything. 14:33 reva So open source means you are left out in the open, casting about for answers? 14:33 libtek Does anyone else see this issue? 14:33 reva I used reva 14:33 owen reva: There are no promises of support. But many people generously give it 14:33 magnus wizzyrea: magnusenger 14:33 owen libtek: What's the error? 14:34 reva FF has its own issued now, with crashes even when only a couple of tabs are open. I think there is some incompatibility with Java 6.20 14:35 libtek owen: I'd paste the error details, but the paste.workbuffer.org is down. Just a sec... 14:35 reva sorry, i answered what was meant for someone else, yet again. 14:37 chris_n heya reva 14:37 reva Ok thanks everyone; I will definitely follow the links and see where I get. If anyone knows that 3.2. is available for windows install, please let me know; i will stay logged on. 14:37 chris_n are you looking for the status of koha on win32 + strawberry? 14:37 libtek owen: Exception thrown and not caught / ui.tabs.js / Code: 0 / URI:http//10.100.30.53:8080/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/lib/jquery/plugins/ui.tabs.js 14:38 reva Hi chris_n. I am looking for help and was told you are the man. 14:38 libtek Line 324 Char: 21 14:38 wizzyrea 3.2 is not yet ported to win32 14:38 chris_n reva: using the latest strawberry release, you should be able to install koha, however 14:38 chris_n it is very unstable atm 14:38 reva Yes; but you will have to start with what strawberry is. 14:38 libtek I didn't see this in the bugs, so I am going to report it. 14:38 chris_n there are additional coding changes that will have to be worked through 14:39 reva Ok, that means I will have to go with 3.0.6, correct? 14:39 chris_n reva: the same issue will exist for all versions 3.x.x 14:39 * chris_n actually has koha running on an xp machine at home 14:39 chris_n but as I say, some things remain very broken atm 14:40 mason reva: if you *really* gotta use windows, go with a virtualbox, or vmplayer setup 14:40 chris_n reva: mason is right for now 14:40 reva chris_n, so I will have to go with 2.x.x version that is stable for windows install? 14:40 chris_n reva: if you want a native install, yes 14:40 chris_n but I highly recommend against it 14:41 chris_n as 2.x is *very* old 14:41 reva so what virtualization software is free? 14:41 owen reva: And as you can see from the koha_win32 mailing list, you won't be able to get help with it through the normal channels 14:41 chris_n iirc there are some virtualbox images of koha which are ready to go out of the box 14:41 chris_n reva: yes 14:42 mason start with the vmplayer one, of kyle's... 14:43 * chris_n plans on getting back to work on koha win32 fixes sometime 14:44 reva chris_n so that means I install the vmplayer first, before I install Koha? 14:44 mason http://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/2009-May/018652.html 14:44 chris_n reva: I'm not 100% sure, but I think so 14:44 mason http://kylehall.info/index.php/projects/koha/koha-virtual-appliance/ 14:44 owen libtek: I think I see where the bug is in the template 14:45 reva chris_n Ok, I will read up on the vmplayer site. Could you kind of describe to me what it does? 14:45 mason reva: spend your time learning to setup koha3-stable on ubuntu, *not* windows ;) 14:46 libtek http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/post_bug.cgi 14:46 libtek http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4843 14:46 munin 04Bug 4843: critical, P5, ---, kyle.m.hall, NEW, Hold Over tab broken 14:47 mason unless you are an expert with windows-VMs, or setting up a native windows LAMP setup, you will have much problems 14:47 reva chris_n Ok, I will read up on the vmplayer site. Could you kind of describe to me what it does? and we are going to "dedicate" one console to act as server. So can I have dual OS (the XP and the Ubuntu on it) and go like that? 14:47 mason and only chris_n here has a windows-koha install, to help you 14:48 chris_n reva: I do not use vmplayer and so am unfamiliar with the details of it 14:48 chris_n you should be able to run the images mason pointed you to with it, however 14:49 chris_n and that on win32 14:49 mason http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VMware_Player 14:49 reva mason I see you are the one advising against the VM set up. But is ubuntu easy to install and configure for a commerical off the shelf install expert like me:) 14:49 owen libtek: I could send you a revised version of the template to test. I don't have a 3.0.x install 14:50 mason trust me, you'll have windows specific problems, that know one here has any experience to help you with ;) 14:52 reva chris_n; I will follow the links provided by mason. 14:53 libtek owen: sure, if you can guide me on how to apply it. I've never done anything like this before. 14:54 owen libtek: I went ahead and attached the full revised template (not a patch) to the bug report 14:54 CGI039 Are the patron categories modifiable? 14:54 owen If you want to test, save that file in place of your existing copy of waitingreserves.tmpl (keep a backup of course) 14:54 wizzyrea CGI039: yep. 14:54 mason reva: http://git.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=koha.git;a=blob;f=INSTALL.ubuntu 14:55 mason ubuntu install guide 14:55 reva mason, chris_n if I install vmplayer do I need to have ubuntu as my os necessarily? 14:55 owen CGI039: The "super-categories" are not modifiable, but the sub-categories are 14:55 mason reva: no - vmplayer clients for both 14:56 CGI039 Please give an example of the "super categories" 14:56 reva mason, thanks, that is one few new configurations to learn. I am new to open source and vmplayer, etc. but I am getting a little confidence now. 14:56 libtek owen: I'm not sure how to get the file onto the ubuntu server yet. I've only done an install from CD and downloaded installs per install instructions. 14:57 owen CGI039: Have you been to the "patron types and categories" page in Administration? 14:57 CGI039 Not yet..but I've screen screenshots..So far, I've seen "Adult" "Child" 14:58 CGI039 Are these the supercategories..The reason i ask is because our library doesn't have many categories... 14:58 CGI039 Just student, staff, faculty and guest.. 14:59 reva Thanks chris_n, mason, owen and magnus for all the help and links provided. I have my work cut out for me for this week. Bye for now. 14:59 CGI039 Excuse me I've seen screen shots.. 14:59 owen CGI039: You'll be able to configure your categories just fine I think 14:59 magnus bye reva, and welcome back 15:00 mason bug 4239 15:00 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4239 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, gmcharlt, NEW, Allow holds on multiple items of selected titles 15:01 reva Thanks chris_n from super sunny Antigua, one of the Leeward islands in the Lesser Antilles, in short in the Caribbean:). 15:02 chris_n reva: sounds like a nice place to be :) 15:05 * owen signs up for the Koha-installation strike team helicopter-bound for Antigua 15:06 CGI039 thanx 15:07 * chris_n can be persuaded to join as well if they serve some of their excellent coffee 15:08 * jwagner will go too, if the trip can be on cruise ship instead of helicopter :-) 15:08 owen Aw, man... 15:08 owen Next you'll be telling me you won't parachute in! 15:09 * jwagner LIKES cruise ships :-) 15:10 wizzyrea it's not a strike team if there are no parachutes 15:11 wizzyrea so you can be part of the "leisurely arriving koha helper people" that come on the cruise ship, and arrive very relaxed. 15:11 owen wizzyrea: If you want to join our strike team you can choose which A-Team member you want to play 15:11 jcamins What about submarines? Submarines don't have parachutes, and they can be part of a strike team. 15:12 * jwagner sees my role as more of a support one -- logistics via cruise ship will work. 15:13 wizzyrea ooh! 15:14 chris_n jwagner can be part of the JFO 15:15 * wizzyrea can't even remember who all of the A Team members are, but is motivated by getting to hum the theme song. 15:16 owen Here you go: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_The_A-Team_characters 15:20 wizzyrea owen: take a look at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/JQuery_Library any other tips you'd like to add (i'm about to add a few of my mods in there) 15:23 jdavidb hi, cait! :) 15:23 owen wizzyrea: Will do. 15:24 * jwagner gets ready for another meeting but would prefer to get ready for a cruise :-( 15:28 cait hi jdavidb :) 15:31 libtek owen: how do I get the patch? I'm out of my element on this one. 15:31 owen libtek: Do you know where Koha is intalled on your machine? 15:31 libtek owen: or replacement file, I should say. 15:32 libtek yes 15:32 owen And can you find the existing waitingreserves.tmpl file in your installation? 15:35 libtek yes. And I just made a backup copy of it. 15:35 owen Here's the revised template from the bug report: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=2190 15:36 libtek okay. This just opens an odd looking webpage 15:37 libtek do I save the source to a file? 15:37 owen Actually I don't think that will work, if your browser opened it by default. 15:38 owen Go to the bug page: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4843 15:38 munin 04Bug 4843: major, P5, ---, kyle.m.hall, NEW, Hold Over tab broken 15:38 owen Look for the attachment link ("Revised version of the 3.0.5 release template") 15:38 libtek Already there. Found that link. It did the same thing. I'm looking at it from my Windows machine, if that makes any difference. 15:39 owen Right click and "save link as..." waitingreserves.tmpl 15:39 libtek Okay. 15:39 owen ...but you should do it from the machine you have Koha on so you can save it in place of the existing one 15:40 libtek I have no idea how to do that. I am just saving it to a flash drive at this point and I was going to copy it over. 15:40 owen That'll work I think 15:41 libtek My command line knowledge in ubuntu server is limited. 15:43 wizzyrea ok I've added most of my more useful jquery mods to http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/JQuery_Library 15:44 wizzyrea I should note that in many cases there's probably a better way to do it 15:45 owen wizzyrea: It might be nice to add a version number to each one in case a later upgrade fixes whatever the jquery is needed for 15:45 wizzyrea good point 15:45 owen For instance, I think the cataloging search one is fixed now 15:45 wizzyrea it is, I fixed it :P 15:45 wizzyrea ^.^ 15:46 wizzyrea but it's not in our system yet hiss 15:46 wizzyrea I will add version 15:48 wizzyrea there 15:48 owen jeeze, took you long enough ;) 15:52 libtek owen: you fixed it. :) You are a genius. 15:53 owen Not a genius libtek, but I have seen how jquery tabs break often enough 15:53 owen I'm glad that worked 15:54 owen I'll submit that as a real patch 15:55 libtek owen: it's more than I could do at this point. I appreciate the fix. Thank you. 16:43 brendan quick question - when items are aged to Lost using long_overdue.pl --> is there any notice that is sent? 16:44 jdavidb I don't think so, brendan. that would be handled through a notice trigger set up for the same number of days. 16:44 brendan yeah that's what I was doing - just wasn't sure 16:44 brendan thanks jdavidb and good morning 16:45 jdavidb :) you're welcome, and good afternoon. 16:45 brendan not yet ;) 16:54 nengard the dontmerge preference says "Don't automatically update attached biblios when changing an authority record. If this is off, please ask your administrator to enable the merge_authorities.pl cronjob". -- it shouldn't say OFF what should it say?

Here's some real news. http://www.finextra.com/news/fullstory.aspx?newsitemid=21431 18:56 wizzyrea ok, I can see now why you like mm, I think. That is a good reason... .0025cm *is* a silly way to write it 18:56 wizzyrea (though no less silly than .02in) 18:57 owen Expressing a decimal fraction of an inch is double-silly. 18:57 jdavidb In Texas, rain is measured in the following increments, "just a sprinkle", "little bit", "a good soak", and "gully-washer." 18:57 owen jdavidb: You left out "toad-strangler" 18:57 * wizzyrea really did lol 18:57 jdavidb heh. 18:58 jdavidb The phase above "gully-washer" is when the animals start lining up two by two. 18:58 cait :) 19:00 wizzyrea oh I like this headline: "Kim Kardashian 'brutally teased'" 19:01 wizzyrea I guess it is in the life and style section 19:01 wizzyrea so I suppose I couldn't expect it to be serious news 19:01 chris unless its in world, or national, its all pretty much not serious 19:04 jwagner collum, stupid pet/criminal tricks don't count :-) 19:05 chris ok time to make the kids breakfast bbiab 19:05 tomascohen @wunder Cordoba, Argentina 19:06 munin tomascohen: The current temperature in Cordoba Aerodrome, Argentina is 16.0�C (3:00 PM ART on June 01, 2010). Conditions: Clear. Humidity: 40%. Dew Point: 6.0�C. Pressure: 30.16 in 1021 hPa (Falling). 19:06 jwagner If I can interrupt with a serious question, though -- a site has a very long 520 field and has been using HTML markup tags in the MARC to make it display nicely under the OPAC title notes tab. (Sigh) The 520 in XSLT shows in the main summary area, though, and pays no attention to the markup tags, except to display them prominently. How do people deal with lengthy note fields other than having them display as one very large runon paragraph? 19:07 owen jwagner: I don't think anyone has come up with a solution yet 19:07 jwagner I tried splitting some of the content into a second 520 field, and the XSLT helpfully tacked it onto the end of the first one. 19:08 jwagner So right now the only solution is "don't use XSLT" which has its own drawbacks :-( 19:19 zico hi 19:20 zico suddenly i am facing problem regarding "Hold Issue" buttons 19:20 zico till last night... it was working 19:20 zico but... Suddenly... though there are some holdings...but... my "Hold Queue" is not showing anything 19:21 zico can anyone bring some advice? 19:22 cait is your cron job running? 19:22 * jdavidb waves 19:25 chris well, you could turn off the html scrubbing for the xslt, then you are open to xss attacks though 19:25 chris (kids are eating porridge ..well kahu is, atarau is kinda smearing it around, so i have about 10 mins to read email before work) 19:27 jwagner chris, thanks but I don't want to make it vulnerable. I've told them to turn off XSLT if they don't mind losing the other features.... 19:30 chris the real fix is to allow certain tags through, <p> <br /> etc .. and escape everything else, ie have a whitelist 19:33 wizzyrea nengard: I added the jquery bits you were asking for to the wiki 19:33 nengard wizzyrea you rock!! 19:34 owen chris: HTML scrubbing? Why would there be HTML in the 520 field? 19:34 zico cait: yes, my cron job is running 19:36 owen Sounds more like there are line feeds in the 520 field that need to be converted to HTML for output 19:36 owen Or jwagner do you want them to be able to add HTML tags? 19:43 jwagner owen, no they're actually adding HTML into the 520, like <P> and <li> etc. to format the output. It works nicely in the Title Notes tab, but looks horrible in the main XSLT-controlled display. 19:43 jwagner "then don't do that" doesn't seem to be a workable solution for them :-( 19:44 jwagner I frankly don't want to encourage adding HTML into MARC, but there should be some way for XSLT to break up lengthy entries. 19:44 owen I wonder if there are MARC-legal formatting rules: line breaks allowed? 19:45 jwagner Not that I've ever seen. I've run into people trying to do this before, in Unicorn. No good solution there either. 19:45 jwagner Maybe it would help if the XSLT didn't put all the 520s on one line. Then breaking the entry into multiple 520s would achieve some screen separation. 19:48 owen XSLT puts multiple 505s on separate lines but not multiple 520s? 19:48 owen jwagner: You're going to become the oracle of complicated MARC records at this rate. 19:49 * owen advises, Seek jwagner for the complicated MARC example you seek 19:49 * jwagner gracefully but definitively refuses the mantle of oracle 19:50 jwagner Actually, I don't know what it does with 505s, haven't looked. I did try creating a separate 520 and it just appended it. 19:51 jwagner Also, this is an older system, I don't know what current XSLT might be doing....Need to research more when I have a few brain cells (and minutes) to spare. I was hoping someone had a quick answer though :-( 19:51 owen Your last troublesome example showed the multiple 505s: http://hartford.waldo.kohalibrary.com/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=302822 19:51 owen Do you have an example online of the 520 problem? 19:51 wizzyrea I wonder if what you really need there is something like http://perishablepress.com/press/2010/06/01/wrapping-content/ 19:51 wizzyrea so whitelist <pre> and add a style for it and put that in your record. 19:52 collum Just went over to cataloging and tried to add line breaks to a 520 field through connexion. We couldn't. 19:53 wizzyrea or maybe i'm high. 19:53 jwagner owen, see http://cmbsc.kohalibrary.com/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=21620 19:54 jwagner compare the top-of-page display with the Title Notes tab 19:57 wizzyrea if you suppress it, it's gone in both places? 19:57 jwagner wizzyrea, suppress? Switching to non-XSLT takes it off the top part. 19:58 owen Hmmm.... Really the XSLT view shouldn't even put the 520 there, since we have the title notes tab. Either that or the notes tab should be suppressed 19:59 jwagner Sorry, but I have to hit the road (in between thunderstorms). Maybe we can pick up the discussion tomorrow? Thanks 20:03 owen @later tell jwagner In HEAD multiple 520s are output on separate lines 20:03 munin owen: The operation succeeded. 20:07 cait good night all 20:13 owen good night all from me too 20:15 libtek nengard: are you avaialble? 20:15 libtek available? 20:15 nengard yes 20:15 libtek I'm looking at one of the bugs your name is attached to. #2367 20:16 wizzyrea bug 2367 20:16 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=2367 major, PATCH-Sent, ---, gmcharlt, NEW, Holds Awaiting Pickup not limiting by library 20:16 libtek I'm confused about the version. Is this version even available? I thought the latest was 3.0.6 20:17 wizzyrea this is for the next version, 3.2 20:17 wizzyrea the latest stable release is 3.0.6 20:18 libtek Okay, so the bugs that list later than 3.0 are for upcoming versions, and these are issues being addressed before release? 20:18 libtek before stable release then? 20:23 jcamins_mib So far as anyone knows, no one has branched off my git repository, right? 20:23 jcamins_mib (errr... that is, github.com/jcamins/koha ) 20:25 wizzyrea yes, that's the idea 20:26 wizzyrea not afaik, but I'm not really the one to ask jcamins_mib 20:28 jcamins_mib I'll ask again once or twice, to make sure that I don't break anyone else's repository (worse than I already have!). 20:29 jcamins_mib It occurred to me I ought to check, before I rewrite the git history. 20:33 richard hi 20:35 libtek Is there a way to point koha to an SMTP relay rather than rely on a mail service on the same machine? I haven't set up any service on this machine, and am not sure what it would involve. I can't find any instructions on setting up the mail service for koha. 20:44 wizzyrea http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/ubuntu-help/149371-how-install-sendmail-ubuntu-9-04-a.html may help 20:44 chris back 20:44 wizzyrea at the risk of starting a "which MTA is better" war. 20:45 chris libtek: no, but you can set up exim4 or postfix or whatever to be a smarthost (ie just relay all mail) 20:50 chris if you dont want to run a full mailserver yourself, i would just do that, (ie set your MTA up to just send all mail up to a relay) 20:56 libtek Thanks for the info guys.
