I think he's in Portugal. 20:09 jcamins But somehow that has to get called. 20:09 jcamins Oh, I just found it it in C4::Search::Engine in the solr stuff. 20:10 * jcamins will PODify his new implementation of Koha::Search::Engine. 20:10 jcamins It will be glorious. 20:10 cait yay! 20:11 jcamins Does anyone have any objection to me submitting lots of bugs? 20:11 cait jcamins: I am sure it will be :) 20:11 jcamins No? 20:11 wahanui i heard No was failing unit tests 20:11 jcamins Good. 20:11 cait nope go ahead 20:11 cait you have a bug wrangler's permission ;) 20:12 jcamins :) 20:12 wizzyrea it was preference worthy to make searching of extended patron attributes togglable?! 20:12 * wizzyrea boggles 20:13 jcamins wizzyrea: absolutely. 20:13 jcamins wizzyrea: without a syspref... 20:13 jcamins uhhh... 20:13 * wizzyrea waits with bated breath 20:13 jcamins cait: help me out here? 20:13 jcamins wahanui: why? 20:13 wahanui bugger all, i dunno, jcamins 20:13 * wizzyrea taps her toe 20:14 jcamins wizzyrea: there's your answer. 20:14 cait huh? 20:14 wizzyrea hehe 20:14 cait searching for attributes? 20:14 cait I think it's a nice touch 20:14 wizzyrea I'm not sure why you would ever want it off, but it is helpful that it tells you what to do if the pref is off and you've selected "searchable" in an attribute 20:15 wizzyrea I agree, searching attributes is great 20:15 wizzyrea but I want to know why we have a knob to turn it off. ;) 20:15 cait perhaps 20:15 wizzyrea it's mostly rhetorical :) 20:15 cait if you have things in there that might pollute your search results 20:15 nengard cause everytime someone adds something without an off seitch someone asks for an off switch :) 20:15 cait like... other names? 20:16 cait or what nengard said :) 20:16 nengard heh 20:16 wizzyrea still... that? 20:16 wizzyrea i'll be boggling about it for a while. 20:17 wizzyrea (but it's fine that it's togglable, I just don't understand the necessity of it) 20:17 wizzyrea (besides "someone said they wanted an off switch) 20:17 wizzyrea (users don't always know best) 20:18 wizzyrea (but the software is always for the users - so there's that) 20:19 sekjal the off-switch is on the preference itself; no global level is required 20:21 wizzyrea i've read that several times now, and i still don't grasp what you're getting at 20:21 wizzyrea sorry >.< 20:22 sekjal since each extended patron preference can be either made searchable or not, if the library doesn't want to search on any extended attributes, they can just make them all not searchable 20:23 sekjal ... or maybe I'm misunderstanding 20:23 wizzyrea oh, right 20:23 wizzyrea nope, i get that :) 20:23 wizzyrea I understand if you went through and added a bunch of attributes, made them all searchable, then you wanted to turn them off 20:23 wizzyrea that would be the way 20:24 wizzyrea better than going through a whole list 20:24 wizzyrea it's really not an issue worth discussing, it's in, it works fine 20:24 wizzyrea I just don't understand (and it's not important that I do) why it's even necessary. 20:25 sekjal it's not 20:25 sekjal I didn't even know such a preference was in there now 20:25 wizzyrea ha! 20:25 wizzyrea I was looking at 7001 and one of the things was to make a patron with a borrower attribute, that's why I was poking at that 20:26 wizzyrea "seriously? I have to turn that on?" 20:26 * jcamins submit gratuitous bugs in an effort to move along the solr integration task. 20:26 wizzyrea keke 20:27 jcamins Does anyone disagree with my assertion that if you change indexing engines, it would be acceptable to require you to restart your web browser? 20:27 oleonard Why? 20:27 jcamins Not browser. 20:27 jcamins Server. 20:27 wizzyrea ^^ 20:27 jcamins I mean, Apache. 20:27 jcamins 'Cause that's the way it works with BibLibre's code now, and I don't want to try and find a workaround. 20:28 jcamins At least, if you're running with mod_perl. 20:28 wizzyrea that's what, a 3-5 second downtime? 20:28 jcamins Right now it works fine 'cause we use CGI. 20:28 jcamins Quarter second? 20:28 wizzyrea depends on how busy the server is I guess 20:28 wizzyrea but 20:28 jcamins graceful will do it. 20:28 wizzyrea it's not something you do all the time 20:29 jcamins Right. 20:29 wizzyrea I don't see a problem with it really, lots of things make you restart apache. 20:29 jcamins Also, if you're switching back and forth between solr and Zebra while your server is busy, you deserve it to be a mess. 20:29 jcamins Excellent. 20:38 gmcharlt jcamins: and if one were *really* worried about it, one could always use two web servers and a load balancer 20:39 jcamins gmcharlt: true. 20:39 jcamins And, my point that anyone who changes indexing engines on a production server during a busy period is probably an idiot remains unchallenged. ;) 20:40 gmcharlt some people say "idiot", some people say "one who likes to live dangerously" ;) 20:40 jcamins gmcharlt: would _you_ do that? 20:41 gmcharlt jcamins: I try to lead as boring an existence at work as I can manage 20:41 jcamins gmcharlt: very wise. 20:41 cait good night all 20:49 maximep we seem to have a badly formed MARC record in our db that prevent rebuild_zebra from finishing it's job 20:49 maximep what would be the best way to find that record 20:51 wizzyrea hmm 20:53 maximep log from rebuild_zebra 20:53 maximep 13:12:39-09/01 zebraidx(14745) 20d7d7fc8c7f0000 [log] Records: 34000 i/u/d 34000/0/0 20:53 maximep 13:12:41-09/01 zebraidx(14745) 20d7d7fc8c7f0000 [log] MARC: Bad directory 20:53 maximep 13:12:41-09/01 zebraidx(14745) 20d7d7fc8c7f0000 [warn] MARC: Bad offsets in data. Skipping rest 20:53 maximep I know it'S after 34000 -_- 20:53 maximep found http://lists.indexdata.dk/pipermail/zebralist/2009-March/002132.html 20:53 maximep but really have to idea of how to test the marc of everything to find the bad one :/ 20:55 wizzyrea hmm does it do the indexing in biblionumber order? 20:55 jcamins wizzyrea: it does. 20:55 wizzyrea maybe look for biblionumber 34000? 20:55 jcamins But it probably won't be that biblionumber. 20:55 wizzyrea hm 20:55 jcamins It's going to be after the 34000*th* record. 20:55 wizzyrea somewhere around there though? 20:56 wizzyrea what's the increment of the count? 20:56 wizzyrea 1000? 20:56 wizzyrea 100? 20:56 * wizzyrea honestly doesn't know 20:56 * wizzyrea wouldn't mind knowing 20:57 jcamins 100 by default, I think. 20:57 maximep would touchallbiblios give an error ? 20:57 maximep 1000 20:57 jcamins maximep: I think it would, yes. 20:57 Mkman a question. where can i get zebra? 20:58 paul_p maximep, an option is to add a LIMIT 33800,34900 to the rebuild_zebra.pl SELECT marcxml FROM biblioitems 20:58 jcamins Mkman: install it using apt-get. 20:58 jcamins Mkman: if you follow the instructions in INSTALL.debian, that'll take you through the entire process. 20:58 Mkman jcamins: i am on Gentoo Linux not a debian based system 20:59 jcamins Mkman: oh. In that case your first development project will be figuring out how to install Koha. ;) 20:59 jcamins Zebra can be found at http://www.indexdata.com/zebra 20:59 Mkman eheh no problem 20:59 wizzyrea zebra is <reply> can be found at http://www.indexdata.com/zebra 20:59 wizzyrea famous last words. 20:59 jcamins Argle blargle! 21:00 maximep ok thanks, will try a touchallbiblios and if not will try the LIMIT option 21:00 jcamins I hate circular dependencies! 21:00 jcamins Logically, C4::Context really ought to offer a C4::Context->search_engine just like C4::Context->dbh. 21:01 jcamins But, mightn't Koha::Search::Engine require C4::Context? You bet! 21:01 * jcamins grumbles. 21:05 jcamins A lot. 21:07 * jcamins has successfully scared everyone away. 21:08 Mkman lol 21:13 oleonard Bye all 21:14 wizzyrea bhe 21:14 wizzyrea bye 21:14 wizzyrea even. 21:14 jcamins Bye. 21:14 jcamins Grr. This is very puzzling. 21:21 jcamins Never mind. 21:21 jcamins Figured it out. 21:32 jcamins Still running into circular dependency issues. 21:32 jcamins Why does C4::Search depend on C4::Biblio? 21:32 jcamins GetMarcFromKohaField and GetBiblioData, apparently. 21:34 jcamins No, GetMarcFromKohaField and GetFrameworkCode. 21:39 jcamins Not sure I see why that first one should be in C4::Biblio, as an aside. 21:47 sekjal jcamins: probably because it is related to MARC mappings... but yes, it isn't entirely appropriate there 21:50 jcamins sekjal: I wrote a lovely Koha::Search::AddToIndexQueue method. 21:50 jcamins Unfortunately, using it is proving harder than anticipated. 22:25 maximep wow, all that to find out that just passing -x to rebuild_zebra fixes the problem. Probably the only notice we have with > 99999 chars :/ 22:25 maximep what a ridiculous day 22:25 jcamins maximep: sorry, I should've asked about that first! 22:25 jcamins maximep: if it makes you feel any better, the last three days have been like this for me. 22:25 maximep yeah, forgot about -x 22:25 maximep saw u mention it several time before in this channel 22:26 maximep well, spend most of the day tracking half a day of lost data from last month 22:26 maximep and looking at how to restore it 22:26 maximep not fun :/ 22:26 jcamins Ugh. 22:28 Mkman good night 22:35 maximep is -x really slower ? Do you know why it isn't the default ? 22:36 blahdeblah Hi. I'm trying to install Koha according to the instructions at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_3.6_on_Debian_Squeeze. I run a dedicated database server on another system, and it's not mentioned in the instructions what permissions are necessary on the database server to allow koha-create to do its work successfully. Can anyone point me to the appropriate info? 22:37 maximep wouldnt it just ask for the right permissions if it doesn't have them ? 22:38 wizzyrea ping eythian 22:38 wizzyrea see blahdeblah's question? Can the packages do that yet? 22:39 jcamins eythian: you should use the request-db and populate-db options. 22:39 jcamins Wait. 22:39 jcamins blahdeblah: that was for you. 22:39 jcamins request-db will print a message telling you exactly what you need to set, and populate-db will fill it in. 22:39 jcamins See man koha-create 22:41 sekjal maximep: not sure why -x isn't standard... perhaps because ISO-2709 came first? 22:41 sekjal or perhaps so -a doesn't require some kind of hop-step 22:41 sekjal since it's not compatible with -x 22:41 maximep it isn't ? 22:42 maximep so i have to rebuild -b and -a in 2 commands ? 22:42 sekjal maximep: yes 22:42 sekjal -b -x and -a separately 22:42 sekjal or -b -a, but no -x 22:42 maximep ok, thx 23:01 blahdeblah jcamins: Thanks - checking them out now 23:01 blahdeblah I assume i still need to create /etc/koha/koha-sites.conf as per the wiki? 23:02 blahdeblah I was a bit concerned that DEFAULTSQL references a non-existent file. Is this an issue? There's nothing describing DEFAULTSQL in the wiki. 23:03 jcamins blahdeblah: yes, you should. 23:03 jcamins blahdeblah: you don't need DEFAULTSQL. 23:03 jcamins That's for if you want it to load a prepopulated database. 23:03 blahdeblah so just DOMAIN and INTRA* 23:03 blahdeblah ? 23:04 jcamins I think there's a way to specify database server, too... 23:04 jcamins DBSERVER? 23:04 jcamins man kohacreate 23:04 jcamins man koha-create, rather 23:09 blahdeblah According to the wiki page, db server is specified in /etc/mysql/koha-common.cnf 23:09 blahdeblah That's where i put it, and it seems to work 23:09 jcamins Ah, right. 23:09 jcamins Sorry. 23:09 * jcamins set it up once ages ago, and promptly forgot how. ;) 23:10 blahdeblah Now i get the error "User test-koha already exists." when i run "koha-create --request-db test", presumably because i've already run it before. "koha-remove test" does not fix this. 23:10 jcamins Ah. 23:10 jcamins I fixed that bug, but I guess it was after the version that you're using was released. 23:10 jcamins What version are you on? 23:10 blahdeblah latest 23:10 blahdeblah just downloaded this morning 23:11 jcamins Ah. 23:11 jcamins Guess my fix hasn't made it in yet. 23:11 blahdeblah Unless, of course, it hasn't made it into the Debian repo. 23:11 jcamins Right, that's probably what it is. 23:11 blahdeblah Is there a way i can manually remove the user? 23:12 jcamins Suggestion: wget -O ~/koha-remov "http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=blob_plain;f=debian/scripts/koha-remove;h=b9e5c2ab5f4b8c15100b3ae0a6626fb31a3e9465;hb=HEAD" 23:12 jcamins Uh, spell koha-remove right. 23:12 jcamins Then, sudo ~/koha-remove test 23:12 jcamins chmod +x ~/koha-remove 23:12 jcamins Then run it. 23:12 jcamins Sorry. 23:12 jcamins Long day. 23:14 blahdeblah No joy 23:15 blahdeblah http://pastebin.com/kkureh14 23:16 jcamins Hrm. 23:16 jcamins deluser test-koha 23:17 jcamins I could've sworn I fixed that bug, but I guess not. 23:17 blahdeblah I moved the mysql stuff to the end of the script and it worked enough to get me a little further 23:18 blahdeblah The problem is that the instructions on using a separate db server (in the wiki and the README) don't make it clear what's different in that instance. When i'm done here i'll update the wiki. 23:19 jcamins Good idea. I don't recall how I did it. 23:26 libsysguy does anybody know how to view the table cascades in schemaspy? 23:26 * jcamins does not. 23:27 jcamins libsysguy: aren't you on vacation? 23:27 jcamins libsysguy: happy birthday. 23:27 libsysguy haha hey thanks jcamins 23:27 libsysguy I wish i was on vacation 23:27 * libsysguy has had a rough monday 23:28 libsysguy i think if i delete from biblio it should get biblioitems and items 23:28 libsysguy maybe not items 23:28 libsysguy ... 23:28 * jcamins has no idea. 23:28 jcamins What are you doing? 23:28 libsysguy i have a list of biblionumbers that i need to delete 23:29 libsysguy we are re-importing our ebooks with better records and since you can't update a bib we just delete them and reimport 23:30 jcamins Ah. 23:30 jcamins That makes sense. 23:30 libsysguy actaully I was just really angry from all the stuff I had to do today and I was considering deleting the catalog one record at a time :p 23:30 jcamins lol 23:31 jcamins ModZebrations? 23:31 jcamins WTF? 23:31 libsysguy 0_0 23:31 jcamins That is the name of a method. 23:32 libsysguy sounds like some one was...zebranated 23:32 libsysguy where is lame pun coon when you need him 23:35 jcamins I have absolutely no idea what it could be intended for. 23:35 jcamins I shall back away slowly. 23:38 libsysguy jcamins http://www.quickmeme.com/Lame-Pun-Coon/ 23:40 jcamins libsysguy: I was talking about the ModZebrations method. 23:40 libsysguy haha I seriously thought you were afraid of the racoon :p 23:40 libsysguy but yes that method 23:41 libsysguy run away 23:42 jcamins Yes! Another absurd amount of code written by yours truly. 23:43 libsysguy you know, I have really grown to appreciate open source software after working with ILLiad and windows all day today 23:43 libsysguy if I don't like it, I change it 23:43 libsysguy that is truely magical 23:44 jcamins :) 23:47 * jcamins attaches a massive patch making a very small change to bug 7430. 23:47 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7430 normal, P5 - low, ---, jcamins, NEW , ModZebra should not be in C4::Biblio
