23:41 munin New commit(s) kohagit: bug 4908: rename temlate variable to branchname <http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=commitdiff;h=bb032138e72a6428e404d9f3593430b7fd989f45> / Fix for Bug 4908 - OPAC patron details page doesn't show patron's home library <http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=commitdiff;h=d86c4aa8943054be2b94990c9778eacff9ec4259> / Bug 5104: Add control number as search option to acq z39.50 search <http://git.koha
22:30 mib_mike Thanks again, that will solve my problem.
22:29 gmcharlt ensures that the item data is embedded in the bib record so that it can be indexed
22:29 mib_mike Thanks, gmcharlt. What does sync_items_in_marc_bib.pl do?
22:24 gmcharlt sync_items_in_marc_bib.pl, rather
22:24 gmcharlt then run the isync_items_in_marc_bib.pl script
22:24 gmcharlt mib_mike: roughly speaking, insert into items select newbiblionumber, newbiblioitemnumber, other, other, columns from deleteditems where itemnumber = foo;
22:22 mib_mike One at a time! Please!
22:19 mib_mike What would be a good way to do that?
22:19 mib_mike One of the original biblio records has been recreated, and I'd like to add the deleted items to it.
22:18 mib_mike It looks like some one deleted the corresponding item records using koha, as they are in the deleteditems database.
22:17 mib_mike When I say "deleted" I mean via mysql, not koah.
22:17 mib_mike To make it work, I deleted some records with bad marc
22:16 mib_mike I was having problems reindexing my catalog.
22:16 mib_mike Hi guy
21:47 wizzyrea pretty unlikely though
21:47 wizzyrea I keep hoping that they'll turn our downtown into a pedestrian mall
21:47 darling is still better than a lot of places for sure
21:47 darling it's sure different, and nice, is why it's been so annoying when they removed one of the pedestrian malls
21:46 wizzyrea but, I do feel your pain, I really liked being able to walk around so easily and not fear for my life from cars all the time
21:46 darling true
21:45 wizzyrea at least you have a chance to dodge between them
21:45 wizzyrea better than 10 cars though!
21:45 wizzyrea I know!
21:45 robin and very fast
21:45 darling wizzyrea, they're very big buses
21:45 wizzyrea we don't design for people, we design for cars.
21:45 wizzyrea seriously, here, you'd just as soon be hit by one car, then another and another if you tried to walk anywhere
21:44 wizzyrea at least it's only busses
21:43 darling oooo, I feel some gimp fixes coming on...
21:43 richard interestng that they don't show busses on the image
21:42 robin yeah. I still haven't been hit, but I know it's going to happen soon.
21:41 darling i miss the wellington where you could walk down the street w/out getting run over by buses as often
21:40 darling ooo, 2 for 1 mojo coffee
21:36 robin http://advent.wellingtonnz.com/ <-- for anyone still missing Wellington...
20:53 darling it'll do that
20:53 darling yeah
20:53 darling hehe
20:53 wizzyrea :) happy friday darling (that still sounds funny to me)
20:53 darling happy friday morning, kohaland
20:15 hdl yes... working (9PM here.)

19:37 * druthb heads for the bus stop.
19:28 cait ok, changing laptops, will be back in a few minutes
19:28 cait perhaps a field that takes the barcode and cancel the hold would be nice
19:27 ibot :)
19:27 druthb ibot: botsnack cookie
19:27 cait sekjal: you have to take them from the shelf - not sure it's something you want to do automagically
19:26 ibot what's up, richard
19:26 richard hi
19:23 sekjal the Holds Awaiting Pickup screen's 'Over' tab just lists them, and provides a Cancel button, but there doesn't seem to be a way to bulk or automatically cancel them, if there are a lot
19:22 sekjal for holds that have been waiting longer than the ReserveMaxPickUpDelay system preference number of days, what should be done with them?
19:21 sekjal holds question

19:04 cait ah, the heading says it's because the routing switches(?) freeze

18:39 chris @wunder wellington nz
18:20 chris i liked the lord of the rings one too
18:20 chris smart
18:20 * druthb is old enough, of course, to remember both the first season of South Park, and the first season of it's...ermm...predecessor in youthful humor, Beavis & Butt-Head.
18:20 chris yep
18:19 trea it was pretty awesome that blizzard agreed to give them a server and the help to get that one done
18:19 chris the world of warcraft episode though ... that was something approaching art
18:18 chris if you werent into it by the 9th season .. you were never going to be :)
18:17 * druthb remembers now why she never quite managed to get into South Park...
18:16 chris heh
18:14 owen [off] If I'm going to get into cat pee I'd rather it be for this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_Boobage
18:12 trea guess that's the price you pay for antioxidants
18:12 owen Yup. Who knew?
18:12 trea apparently the acai berry smells like a cat box?
18:11 trea i actually have some orange flavored emergen-c in my cupboard at home
18:11 trea oh dear
18:11 owen trea: Someone gave me some of that stuff
18:10 chris http://www.emergenc.com/index.php/products/original/acai-berry
18:10 chris hehe
18:10 owen It's never good when people walk by your office saying 'What smells like a cat box?'
18:10 chris thats a particularly bad smell
18:10 trea wait, what?
18:10 chris hehe
18:10 owen that's what everyone thought when they smelled that drink
18:09 chris still drinking cat pee owen?
18:09 owen Hi chris
18:08 chris morning
17:52 cait hi trea :)
17:48 trea hello cait
17:47 cait hi #koha
17:17 jcamins Time to eat lunch so I can get uptown by 2.
16:45 kf bye all - bbl :)
16:41 nengard k
16:40 wizzyrea (but I haven't testedâ€¦ I've got one of my librarians on the phone >.<)
16:40 wizzyrea then yea it sounds like it's not working for whatever reason
16:39 nengard oh wait - just two of them and then tested between the two
16:39 nengard yes
16:38 wizzyrea and you set that for every library?
16:36 nengard they want no transfers or checkins
16:36 nengard we turned it off for all item types
16:36 nengard or transfer rules
16:35 nengard wizzyrea - by rules you mean circ rules?
16:33 * kf is getting tired obviously
16:33 kf and you are here
16:33 kf see it now :)
16:33 sekjal and we're working on getting some sponsorship right now, actually
16:32 sekjal yes, the RFC was written by me
16:32 sekjal oh, yes, I just responded to that email
16:32 kf hdl: I talked to sekjal about hourly loans, it's his rfc (I think) and afaik it's not sponsored yet
16:30 wizzyrea well it's by itemtype, I'm assuming you were testing with an itemtype that you set rules for?
16:29 nengard brb
16:29 wizzyrea oh I seeâ€¦ looking
16:29 nengard it's all very confusing and i'm pretty sure it doesn't work in any case
16:28 nengard but the description on the page only mentions checkins - not transfers
16:28 nengard no numbers can be entered
16:28 nengard wizzyrea it's just a check box - allow or don't allow
16:27 druthb No, it's not a holiday, nengard; it's just been pretty quiet this morning.
16:27 wizzyrea maybe that's a misconception
16:27 wizzyrea I always thought that branch transfers prevented a sending library from sending too many items
16:27 druthb chocolate chip! :)
16:26 nengard looks like i might have to come back when more people are around ... is it a holiday and I didn't know it?
16:26 nengard (asked by a librarian in the room)
16:25 nengard what kind
16:24 nengard heh
16:23 * druthb doesn't have an answer, but offers cookies instead!
16:22 nengard not the answer i wanted :)
16:21 wizzyrea hmmm
16:21 druthb howdy, class, from Washington, DC!
16:19 nengard this too seems to say it will do that but we're not seeing that happen - so i want to confirm that i understand properly and if i do then i might need to report a bug
16:18 nengard the way i read this tool it limits letting branches checkin items from other branches - but it also mentions transfers and so i'm confused. we want to prevent books from being transferred and we want to prevent people from checking in books at branches other than the one that owns the book
16:18 nengard i have a branch transfers limit question - it's a long one
16:17 wizzyrea hi from Kansas :)
16:17 nengard hi all - i'm in training say hi to the class
15:56 cfouts greetings, kf
15:55 kf hi cfouts
15:51 magnus dinnertime!
15:43 cfouts good morning/afternoon hdl
15:39 wizzyrea stupid spam filter
15:39 druthb hi, hdl.
15:39 wizzyrea â€¦oh I feel dumb
15:39 hdl hi druthb
15:39 hdl hi cfouts
15:38 * druthb waves to cfouts.
15:30 jcamins Of course, the speed had less to do with the Mac-ness and more to do with the fact that the new computer is an order of magnitude more powerful than his old one.
15:30 * magnus thinks hate is too strong a word, but...
15:29 * magnus hates his mac
15:29 sekjal for the convenience factor, I probably should have gone with Mac. Open source is better, but it can take longer to beat into submission
15:29 * jcamins installed Linux under VirtualBox, too. It took a half hour.
15:29 druthb hmmmm.
15:28 * wizzyrea still loves her mac, openness and ideological arguments aside.
15:28 owen Shiny, shiny cookies.
15:28 wizzyrea (we have cookies)
15:28 wizzyrea welcome to the dark side
15:28 wizzyrea heh
15:26 jcamins It was almost eery.
15:25 * jcamins just switched to a Mac, and was amazed at the complete lack of problems he encountered setting it up last night
15:25 owen No fair, Linux drivers trump just about everything
15:24 sekjal wizzyrea: I'll see your git irritation, and raise you "issues with proprietary graphics drivers on Ubuntu"
15:24 munin hdl: The operation succeeded.
15:24 hdl @later tell nengard sorry for delay
15:23 munin hdl: The operation succeeded.
15:23 hdl @later tell nengard list koha-docs finally created...
15:16 * wizzyrea mutters with irritation at git. This worked last week you little wank.
15:14 jcamins Sadly, he'll have to wait until he moves.
15:14 * jcamins desperately wants a baking stone
15:14 wizzyrea :)
15:14 wizzyrea FOODNERDS
15:14 * jcamins got a candy thermometer for the holidays last year.
15:14 wizzyrea yea, it's totally easy
15:13 jcamins Isn't it easy, too?
15:13 * wizzyrea may require a candy thermometer, however.
15:13 jcamins :D
15:13 wizzyrea it was guuuud
15:13 wizzyrea jcamins: we made your fudge last night
15:08 druthb :) come on down. leave problems behind.
15:08 * jwagner plots to sneak down the hall & grab yet another one....
14:59 druthb Chocolate chip. They're from my grocery, but they're pretty decent.
14:58 * trea loves cookies
14:58 trea \o/
14:57 * druthb waves to trea, and offers a cookie.
14:52 sekjal hi, magnus
14:51 magnus hi there sekjal
14:39 druthb hi, jcamins!
14:38 magnus hiya jcamins
14:37 jcamins Good morning, #koha
14:30 kmkale bye all
14:16 * magnus thanks druthb for the anchor, might come in handy
14:16 * druthb hands magnus an anchor, just in case. Wouldn't want him to blow away!
14:03 druthb Hi, kf_a !
14:01 kf_a morning us :)
14:01 * magnus is experiencing wind of "Near gale, 16 m/s" - but there's probably a bit more in the gusts
14:00 Nate morning magnus!
13:59 magnus hiya Nate
13:45 Nate mornin!
13:44 * druthb waves to Nate.
13:43 * druthb gets out her slingshot, loads a cookie, and aims west.
13:43 jwagner owen, these ARE real cookies! but I'm eating them all up :-)
13:43 owen So far it's a pretty awesome diet.
13:42 owen Thanks druthb, but I'm on a diet: I only eat real cookies.
13:42 * druthb waves and offers a cookie to owen.
13:09 jwagner Hi kmkale
13:05 kmkale hi druthb jwagner
13:04 kmkale so far I got ybook reader, lucidor, fbreader and calibre
13:00 * jwagner eats cookies
12:59 * druthb arrives, with cookies.
12:59 kf_a sorry, have to go - next meeting
12:59 kf_a ah, the address looks right in the mail on koha-patches
12:59 marcelr perhaps something with sendmail config on test server
12:58 kf_a hm?
12:57 marcelr kf_a: got an error on your email address??
12:52 kf_a marcelr++
12:52 kf_a marcelr: thx for sign-off!
12:45 kf_a sorry, I don't use reader software
12:32 kmkale Want o put it on a Kiosk with this Touchscreen in the library
12:31 kmkale can anyone recommend me a nice book reader software for Ubuntu? One which has good page flip animation etc?
12:21 kmkale first ibot now ghosttalker nice going #koha
12:20 kmkale :)
12:20 jcamins_a Despite the fact that I've been talking for forty-five minutes or something like that. ;)
12:20 jcamins_a I'm not really here.
12:20 jcamins_a Hi, kmkale.
12:20 kmkale hi jcamins_a
12:20 jonefuroy i would hate to proove you wrong!
12:19 jcamins_a You can do this! :D
12:19 jonefuroy see ya guys! bye!
12:19 jcamins_a Good luck, jonefuroy.
12:18 kmkale no multitouch but still nice
12:18 kmkale hehe just got the Dell SX2210T touchscreen working with Ubuntu 10.10 Awesome!! :)
12:18 jonefuroy but ill dual boot debian and ubuntu... haven't tried debian before so why not!
12:18 jonefuroy iwe tried install ubuntu 2 times now..
12:17 jonefuroy but now i have to go! Thank you guys! I'l be back like crack!
12:17 jcamins_a jonefuroy: if you really want Ubuntu, probably INSTALL.ubuntu works.
12:17 magnus nah, you are being a very determined librarian! :-)
12:16 jonefuroy im just being a baby! ill install dabian and begin from scratch!
12:16 magnus without the satisfaction of having done it the hard way, that is...
12:15 jonefuroy i know... but I wanted to do it myself...!
12:15 magnus it won't import records, but should give you a running koha
12:15 jcamins_a jonefuroy: if you were setting up the computer from scratch, I'd suggest just trying the install.DEBIAN instructions.
12:15 magnus http://mizstik.com/projects/koha-livecd/
12:15 magnus jonefuroy: there IS a cd
12:14 jonefuroy thank you jcamins_a , magnus and eweryone else!
12:14 magnus uninstalling and reinstalling might be worth a try as a last resort
12:14 jonefuroy im dying here! cant any of you just make a cd that does ewerything by it self! (including importing my catalouge) ;)
12:13 jcamins_a I also need to cook some breakfast.
12:13 jcamins_a I don't know what to suggest.
12:13 jcamins_a Hm.
12:13 jonefuroy mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'
12:11 jcamins_a Try connecting now.
12:11 jcamins_a o.O
12:11 jonefuroy start: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.3005" (uid=1000 pid=12217 comm="start) interface="com.ubuntu.Upstart0_6.Job" member="Start" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination="com.ubuntu.Upstart" (uid=0 pid=1 comm="/sbin/init"))
12:11 jonefuroy i did : $ service mysql start
12:11 jonefuroy Rather than invoking init scripts through /etc/init.d, use the service(8) utility, e.g. service mysql start Since the script you are attempting to invoke has been converted to an Upstart job, you may also use the start(8) utility, e.g. start mysql
12:10 jcamins_a What are the errors this time?
12:09 jonefuroy hmmm new errors, but i think it maybe helped
12:07 * jcamins_a is getting his operating systems confused...
12:07 jcamins_a sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
12:07 jcamins_a No, like this:
12:06 jcamins_a I think that's right.
12:06 jcamins_a It will if you restart the computer, but you can avoid that by running: sudo /etc/rc.d/mysql start
12:06 jonefuroy jeeez!
12:06 jcamins_a MySQL doesn't automatically start on Ubuntu.
12:05 jcamins_a There we go.
12:05 jcamins_a Ah-ha!
12:05 jonefuroy no but check this mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
12:04 jcamins_a And you tried just hitting enter when it asks you for the password?
12:04 jonefuroy mysqladmin -u root -p create koha
12:04 jcamins_a The instructions from the how-to are kind of odd, so I'm not sure where this could have gone wrong.
12:03 jcamins_a Hm.
12:03 jonefuroy should i remove mysql and do a fresh install?
12:02 jonefuroy nope
12:02 jcamins_a And you don't recall setting the password earlier?
12:02 jcamins_a Okay.
12:01 jonefuroy ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
12:00 jonefuroy Update root MySQL password (if dselect didn't do it for you already)
12:00 jcamins_a (without the -p)
12:00 jcamins_a jonefuroy: try running: `mysql -uroot`
12:00 magnus jonefuroy: what did you do to get the error?
11:59 magnus jonefuroy: not stupid, but learning, which is good! ;-)
11:59 kf ok, going to lunch - see you all later!
11:59 kf ah
11:59 jonefuroy I started from scratch... newest koha following http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=blob;f=INSTALL.ubuntu.lucid;h=0ee096ed244a0b25f7b6be893723c3a5a2602bad;hb=HEAD
11:59 kf http://everydaytechy.blogspot.com/2010/05/install-koha-30000-on-ubuntu-910.html
11:58 kf but now I can install koha in under an hour :)
11:58 kf hope you can solve your problems and it was hard for me too the first time (knowing nothing about linux)
11:58 jcamins_a I'm trying to find the howto you used, so I can hopefully offer you non-speculative advice.
11:58 jonefuroy see ya kf ! thanks
11:58 jonefuroy kf but i feel so stupid
11:58 kf it's lunch time here - and I have a meeting later :(
11:58 magnus what did you do to get the error?
11:57 jcamins_a This keyboard is going to take some getting used to...
11:57 magnus you can do it, jonefuroy!
11:57 jonefuroy if i did... how can i reset it... i dont think i did... im not shure
11:57 kf jonefuroy: it's really not that hard and people will try and help you - don't give up!
11:57 jcamins_a Did you set a password for MySQL/
11:57 jonefuroy i'm sooo close to giving up :')
11:57 kf are you at the web installer step?
11:56 kf :)
11:56 jonefuroy ok! Im stuck again... Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost
11:56 kf and hi jared
11:56 jcamins_a Right.
11:56 kf and ask here if you get stuck :)
11:56 jcamins_a I mean, the instructions that come with Koha.
11:55 jcamins_a Very. I'd suggest following the instructions.
11:54 jonefuroy i know... strange to put that in howto...
11:41 jcamins_a Gstreamer is used for audio on Linux.
11:41 jcamins_a I haven't learned how to scroll back on my new computer yet, but I can definitely say that gstreamer is *not* needed by Koha.
11:38 jonefuroy hmrf ...
11:37 kf me neither
11:24 magnus never heard of it...
11:20 jonefuroy and gstreamer aswell was maybe a bit odd?
11:18 magnus yeah, shouldn't be any reason to install java!
11:17 jonefuroy ill try again with the newest version!
11:16 jonefuroy i had to take a phonecall
11:16 jonefuroy sorry guys!
11:13 kf jonefuroy: you can download it and look at the install files like magnus suggested - ubuntu is pretty easy to install. I think the howot is perhaps not ideal - I never needed java like it suggests
11:11 kf jonefuroy: and 3.2.1 has a lot more nice features :)
10:57 magnus i would stick with the INSTALL.*-files: http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=tree
10:53 kf I think the tests failing should not happen in a newer version - although it's probably not as bad as you think
10:52 jonefuroy but is it because its old i get the errors?
10:52 jonefuroy i used this: http://everydaytechy.blogspot.com/2010/05/install-koha-30000-on-ubuntu-910.html
10:52 jonefuroy testing ... and maybe learning how to install so i can use it in production later...
10:51 kf the installation manuals are updated in the newer releases too
10:51 kf which howto are you using?
10:51 kf is this for production or testing?
10:51 jonefuroy i try to do ewerything the howto says...just as it says it
10:50 kf that's old
10:50 jonefuroy koha-3.00.00
10:49 ibot yes, kf?
10:49 kf ibot?
10:49 ibot which version are you upgraing from ?
10:49 kf jonefuroy: which version?
10:48 jonefuroy and a lot more... :(
10:48 jonefuroy make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 255
10:48 jonefuroy Failed 2/19 test programs. 2/38 subtests failed
10:48 magnus what does it say?
10:47 jonefuroy when i run : sudo make test it seems like iwe done something really wrong...
10:45 jonefuroy :)
10:45 * jonefuroy = the Fury Koha Newbie NR1
10:44 kf junefuroy, sorry
10:44 kf hi magnus and jonefury
10:44 magnus good plan! ;-)
10:44 magnus too many new things at once? ;-)
10:44 jonefuroy iwe been trying to understand what im doing and not just c&p ewerything... ;)
10:43 jonefuroy new computer, new network and new try, but still having problems...
10:43 jonefuroy hi magnus
10:42 magnus hiya braedon|l and jonefuroy
10:42 jonefuroy hello folks!

10:29 kmkale @weather Mumbai
10:22 praba ya.. and books we have around 3 million
10:12 magnus btw: that sounds like an impressive amount of borrowers! ;-)
10:12 magnus i'm afraid i'm out of ideas...
10:11 praba yea.. let me give a try on that.. is there any other ideas that i can try ???
10:10 magnus importing csv into the db is as you say another option
10:10 magnus you could create a script that turns your file into SQL-commands and then run tht against the database
10:09 praba There is no command line solutions.. thought to try csv to sql import but high risk involves in it so keep thinking
10:08 magnus hm, i don't think there is a command line script for importing patrons...
10:08 praba i want to reduce the time
10:08 praba ya exactly..
10:08 magnus hm, so you can upload, but the processing is taking too much time?
10:08 praba already 2 lakhs patron is there in DB..
10:07 praba file is not big but it is taking too much time to import thats the problem
10:06 magnus and they are still too big?
10:05 praba ya.. I have splitted the files and each contains 10K to 25K
10:04 praba <magnus>: FYI i have already turned off borowers log.. and using "ignore if patron exists"
10:04 magnus praba: one alternative is to divide the huge file into smaller ones
10:03 praba magnus : the given doc says the standard import.. but in my case. i have half a million patron that has to be imported into koha.. now it is taking too much time to import in GUI mode. any other alternate to this ??
09:48 magnus praba: http://koha-community.org/documentation/3-2-manual/?ch=x5928
09:35 praba i have large number of borrowers that has to be imported in to koha
09:34 praba hiii ... any solution for borrower quick import?
09:29 marcelr morning all, joining #koha I am looking for someone to signoff three small patches
09:17 kmkale fredericd: i checked it. the patch is applied and cleanly
09:16 kmkale fredericd: yes
09:15 fredericd kmkale: The JavaScript code is in the template. Do you conduct your test using 'en' templates?
09:00 kf kmkale: sorry, never seen that and have a meeting now :(
08:59 munin 04Bug 4955: critical, P5, ---, henridamien, NEW, adding to basket with no item throws error
08:59 kmkale fredericd: perhaps the patch should also check for itemtype as suggested here.. http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4955 ??
08:52 kmkale can anyone help me with why I get "Can't use string ("") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at /home/kk/kohaclone/cataloguing/addbiblio.pl line 683" when I create a new ACQ framework by from any framework such as default or fast add and try catalouging with it?
08:47 kmkale fredericd: whereas in my default framework I have 952$v, g & p as mandatory
08:46 kf ah :)
08:45 kmkale kf: will comply ;)
08:45 kmkale fredericd: I applied the patch and it allowed me to save by just selecting the item type
08:45 kf wilco?
08:45 kmkale s/wico/wilco
08:45 kmkale kf: wico
08:41 kf it's not good :( you could update the bug with your findings - perhaps it will push it back into people's minds too and someone will fix it.
08:40 kf yeah
08:40 kmkale and *lots* of messages in the error log
08:40 kmkale exactly
08:40 kmkale kf: yes
08:35 kf if you do it should save without error - if you forget you will get an evil looking perl or xml error
08:35 kf kmkale: have you selected an item type for your item?
08:34 kf kmkale: let me check
08:32 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=4955 critical, P5, ---, henridamien, NEW, adding to basket with no item throws error
08:32 kmkale i think i have ran into bug 4955 here :(
08:25 kf good morning #koha
08:14 kmkale anyway modifying default
08:13 kmkale humph. I tried to create a new ACQ framework this time by copying the Fast Add Framework. No go. Still I get "Can't use string ("") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at /home/kk/kohaclone/cataloguing/addbiblio.pl line 683" when I try catalouging with it.
08:12 fredericd great. Just modify barcode subfield
08:09 kmkale ok may be I can
08:09 kmkale as I cant see a way of making default frameworks 952 fields mandatory
08:09 kmkale deleting and retrying to create acq framework
08:08 kmkale yes I created by copying from default framework
08:08 fredericd Is your ACQ populated with subfields. Have you created them by copying default framework subfields?
08:07 fredericd kmkale: Sorry I'm wrong. It works with a new created ACQ framework. No bug there. I forgot to populated my new ACQ framrwork with subfields
08:06 kmkale btw if i try a new catalaouging with the newly created ACQ framework I get a *Can't use string ("") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at /home/kk/kohaclone/cataloguing/addbiblio.pl line 683.* error
08:05 kmkale ok. will try making a few 952 fields in the default framework as mandatory
08:05 fredericd You can try with default framework
08:04 fredericd kmkale: I have also that... It may be another bug. I take a look. But the patch doesn't deal with that
08:00 kmkale still I get "No ACQ framework in Acquisitions :(
08:00 kmkale then I made a few fields in 952 as mandatory for the ACQ framework
08:00 hdl kmkale: it will use that one for Acquisitions :D
07:59 kmkale I went to Home â€º Administration â€º MARC Frameworks and created a new framework with code ACQ
07:59 hdl kmkale: create a framework named ACQ
07:59 fredericd Ignore it. It's not related to the bug handled by the patch
07:58 kmkale how do I get rid of the "No ACQ framework.." box?
07:58 fredericd kmkale: Modify an item field of your default framework
07:58 fredericd hdl: hello
07:58 kmkale fredericd: but I dont see any * marks, so how will I know if its supposed to stop if these are not filled in?
07:57 hdl hi fredericd
07:57 hdl hi all
07:55 fredericd Default framework is ok in this case
07:55 fredericd kmkale: It's not a problem. The bug is independant of the use framework
07:54 kmkale fredericd: ?
07:42 kmkale fredericd: I have created a new MARC framework with code ACQ. Still when I try to add to basket in acquisition it says No ACQ framework. What am I doing wrong?
07:38 kmkale ok. I have marked 952 $ e, g & v as mandatory for the acq framework
07:35 fredericd After applying the patch, you will get an error message
07:35 fredericd kmkale: ok. That's it. You will see that you can save the order. That's the problem
07:35 kmkale is that ok?
07:35 kmkale then apply the patch and retest
07:34 kmkale fredericd: creating a acq framework now. WIll mark a few 952 fields such as price etc as mandatory and test
07:34 fredericd The patch add some JavaScript which prevent saving the order with mandatory item fields empty
07:34 fredericd kmkale: You can see * BUT you can also save the order with * item fiels empties
07:24 cait ok, have to get ready for work - will be back later!
07:24 cait subfields of 952 / 995 depending on your MARC flavor
07:23 cait and you can create a new framework called ACQ and mark things mandatory for testing
07:23 cait ah, first you can check if you have marked a subifled in your default framework as mandatory - only those should show up as mandatory in acq
07:23 kmkale 1 min on call
07:23 kmkale no
07:22 cait kmkale: do you have an ACQ framework created?
07:22 kmkale fredericd: I created a new branch of origin/master and trying acq before applying the patch. I cant see any fields with a * while adding item to order :(
07:15 praba cait : I have chosen ignore if it exist
07:14 cait I noticed it was slower when I chose overwrite instead of ingore at the bottom of the page - not sure it will help much.
07:13 praba cait: i'm matching cardnumber with existing borrowers.. how to stop matching with existing borrowers?
07:05 praba fredericd: thanks fredericd.
07:04 praba fredericd: No i didn't do that.. i ll do that now
06:59 fredericd praba: Have you disabled BorrowersLog syspref?
06:58 cait if you can try again a bit later - people here change during the day - lots of timezones involved
06:58 fredericd praba: Do you speak Perl?
06:58 praba yea. Looking for help..
06:57 cait and use a script or search/replace things to make it to sql - but perhaps someone else can help you much better with this question
06:56 cait you would have to look at the table structure carefully
06:56 praba or how can i change .csv files to sql to put in DB directly..
06:55 cait praba: afaik ther eis no script you can use from the command line
06:55 praba cait :: is there any terminal way to import borrowers?
06:54 cait perhaps you should try loading them via mysql - but be careful with your codes and numbers.
06:54 praba yea.. moreover mydb already having 3 million books
06:54 cait that's a lot to load from the browser
06:54 cait praba: wow
06:54 praba cait: half million borrowers
06:53 fredericd A bug could be filled for that
06:53 fredericd borrowers loading in generally slow. Since it's just a matter of populating one table (more if attributes), I don't understand why
06:52 praba cait:Total borrowers is around 5 lacs.. already i have loaded 3 lacs to mysql db in GUI mode.. still i have 2 lacs data in different csv files .. each contains 8K to 25K in terms of number
06:52 cait praba: what is a lacs?
06:52 praba Totals borrowers is around 5 laacs.. already i have loaded 3 lacs to mysql db in GUI mode.. still i have 2 lacs data in different csv files .. each contains 8K to 25K in terms of number
06:51 cait fredericd: ok :)
06:51 fredericd cait: yes. I count on that to make the acquaintance of translators
06:50 cait are you matching them with existing borrowers? (this makes things slower in my experience)
06:50 cait praba: how many borrowers are you trying to load?
06:50 cait fredericd: ok - drop you a short mail after we registered?
06:49 praba cait:: you could also create sql statements to fill the table?? how to do this cait ??
06:49 munin cait: The operation succeeded.
06:49 cait @later tell owen I updated and rebased 5422_state on my repository - could you perhaps test again?
06:49 fredericd cait: Right/permissions will have to be reaffected
06:49 munin cait: Error: "ater" is not a valid command.
06:49 cait @ater tell owen I updated and rebased 5422_state on my repository - could you perhaps test again?
06:48 praba i have spited files with 8K to 10K borrowers in size.. but the whole process ll take almost 6 days it seems to complete 5 lacs.. right now i'm having members around 3 lacs in mysql db so its too slow to import
06:47 cait fredericd: pootle question: you wrote we have to register again on the new site - what about the rights/permissions?
06:46 cait fredericd: good to see this getting fixed!
06:46 cait I have only imported up to 1000 borrowers - that was reasonably fast on our server
06:45 praba ya.. Thats wat i'm doing it.. But still it takes lat of time to import
06:45 munin 04Bug 5446: normal, PATCH-Sent, ---, henridamien, NEW, Item creation in Acquisition module doesn't control mandatory fields
06:45 cait praba: you could also create sql statements to fill the table - but this has it's on risks and the borrower upload tool is much safer. I would try to split your file into smaller files if loading from the browser takes too long.
06:45 fredericd and bug description here: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5446
06:45 kmkale wilco

06:44 fredericd The patch is here:
06:44 kmkale sure
06:44 fredericd It's very basic
06:44 kmkale yes if I can understand it ;)
06:44 cait you could split up your borrower file
06:44 fredericd kmkale: Would you be available to test a patch and sign-off?
06:44 praba its taking too much of time .. is there any other alternative ?

03:28 chris_n ibot: ibot?
02:29 robin no problem :)
02:29 wasabi and robin, for the tmux tip ;)
02:29 wasabi aaah, thanks ibot
02:28 ibot rumour has it tmux is like screen
02:28 wasabi tmux?
02:28 wasabi tmux is like screen
02:28 ibot wish i knew, wasabi
02:28 wasabi ibot: tmux?
02:27 wasabi tmux?
02:25 wasabi screen and putty even, lol
02:25 wasabi ive used some gonzo home-grown setups in the past
02:25 robin I've never used it, but I know people who quite like it.
02:25 robin also have a look into tmux, it's like screen
02:25 robin oh
02:25 robin it really is
02:25 robin let me know what you end up with
02:25 wasabi term/screen setup is a black art, for sure!
02:24 wasabi i hope to experiment with a better setup over xmas
02:24 robin no worries
02:24 wasabi anyhoo, i now have more options, thnx to you
02:23 wasabi not everything i do is in a screen session
02:23 wasabi yep, ive avioded that method so far
02:22 robin Also, screen has some copy/paste ability itself
02:22 robin not something I have to do a lot, fortunately.
02:22 robin yeah, that's a bit annoying.
02:22 wasabi on multi-screen text
02:21 wasabi but using my screens scrollback, i cant 'cut' properly
02:21 wasabi yes, i do alreadyâ€¦ ish
02:20 robin wasabi: use screen's scrollback
02:19 wasabi â€¦ switch my term perhaps
02:19 wasabi might has to do some more experimenting...
02:18 wasabi bugger, the screen bottom-menu has borken my term's scrollback
01:32 robin definitely a benefit :)
01:31 wasabi s/session/window/
01:30 wasabi yes, i no longer have to rely on a terminal.app to do my screen session switching
01:25 robin it's quite useful
01:25 robin hehe
01:24 wasabi lol
01:24 wasabi i wanted that for my screen , for about 5 years! :/
01:21 robin sweet as
01:21 wasabi bamm!, thanx :)

01:20 wasabi any chance you could flick me your .screen.conf file?
01:19 robin wasabi: yup
01:19 wasabi robin: about?
00:13 wasabi wow, those race-suits are blingy
