06:33 Amit_Gupta        heya cait
06:33 cait              hi Amit_Gupta
07:04 halfie            hi, how do I enable sending emails in Koha? ./koha-email-enable script for an "instancename" which I don't know about.
07:07 cait              halfie: you have installed koha using the packages?
07:08 cait              you have to set up an mta on your system that koha can use
07:08 halfie            cait: I installed Koha from source distribution. I already have postfix working on the system.
07:08 cait              and if you used the packages the instancename will be the name of the koha installation you want to activate mails for
07:08 cait              I am not sure what source distribution menas - did you use the koha-common packages?
07:09 halfie            cait: I used source distribution and did "make install". source distribution implies koha-latest.tar.gz tarball distribution.
07:09 cait              halfie: ah ok
07:09 cait              then you are not using the packages
07:10 cait              there are debian packages and the koha-email-enable script is for those
07:10 cait              have you set up the cronjobs for koha?
07:10 cait              for most mails
07:10 cait              koha writes the mail into a database table message_queue and will send them out when the cronjob process_message_queue (might have a typo here) is run
07:11 cait              for generating overdue mails you need the overdues cronjob
07:11 cait              for date due and reminder mails the advance_notices cronjob
07:11 cait              it's in the documentation I think
07:11 cait              documentation?
07:11 wahanui           documentation is probably at http://koha-community.org/documentation/
07:12 halfie            okay, I followed http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_Ubuntu and currently, I only have a single rebuild_zebra.pl job in cron.
07:13 cait              ah
07:13 cait              what kind of mails were you trying to send?
07:13 cait              having the rebuild_zebra is good
07:13 cait              you only miss a little bit of configuration for the mails
07:14 cait              and you said you already have postfix - so should not be hard :)
07:14 halfie            cait: user (patron) creation mails. I was trying to inform users when their accounts are created.
07:14 cait              hmm
07:14 cait              those are a special case
07:15 cait              because they circumvent the message_queue
07:15 cait              no cronjobs required here
07:15 cait              do you have a notice set up under tools > notices?
07:15 cait              and also
07:15 cait              the message will only be sent out, if you add a password on creation of the user
07:15 cait              I have tested that a while ago - hope it still behaves like that
07:16 halfie            cait: cool, trying it out
07:16 cait              the notice should be in module members and named ACCTDETAILS
07:17 cait              there is a sample notice that comes with Koha - but you have to select them during installation I think
07:22 halfie            cait: I created a user with email and password set but the new user still didn't receive an email. trying to debug ..
07:22 marcelr           hello koha
07:22 cait              halfie: the latest version - 3.6.3? right?
07:23 cait              halfie: I can try and test perhaps when at work
07:23 cait              good morning marcelr
07:23 cait              :)
07:23 marcelr           hi cait :-)
07:23 halfie            cait: yes 3.6.3
07:23 cait              halfie: perhaps it was username and password... I remember it would not send out the mails when editing the patron after its first creation
07:24 cait              halfie: I guess you have activated the system preference?
07:25 halfie            cait: yes, I have set email in system preferences. I also crated a new user with username and password set but didn't receive an email.
07:30 cait              hm sorry
07:30 cait              running out of ideas :(
07:30 cait              AutoEmailOpacUser is the one to look at
07:30 cait              that should be set to send
07:33 halfie            cait:I am checking the logs now. that fiels is already set to send. I am clearing the logs and creating a new user for debugging.
07:33 cait              sounds good :)
07:41 halfie            cait: after restarting postfix email notifcations are working :). thanks for all the help.
07:41 halfie            Can I configure Koha to show local time instead of UTC?

07:48 julian_m          hi cait

12:31 julian_m          marcelr, yes
12:31 marcelr           hi julian: question about 7178
12:32 marcelr           my quantity on neworderempty is always readonly?
12:32 marcelr           seems to be so in current master too
12:32 marcelr           with acqcreateitem=ordering
12:32 kf                marcelr: sorry, was at lunch
12:33 marcelr           we normally use cateloging there
12:33 marcelr           hi kf
12:33 marcelr           see the problem report..
12:34 marcelr           julian_m: understand my problem?
12:34 kf                marcelr: yes,when you have it on order it is
12:34 kf                marcelr: there is an enh request
12:34 kf                but it's not regressing
12:34 kf                only staying the same
12:35 julian_m          marcelr, not sure of what you are talking about, when acqcreateitem='ordering' you create items in neworderempty.pl so quantity is automatically increased when you create new items
12:35 marcelr           so can only order one there now
12:35 kf                marcelr: you can only fill in quantity manually when creating items in cataloging or on receive
12:35 marcelr           though that it also was so with receiving? will check that
12:35 kf                marcelr: it's a request from big libraries to change it - but it's like that now and after the patch, so I think it should not fail qa for not fixing another bug
12:35 kf                marcelr: yes, when creating on receive, it's like that too :)
12:35 kf                on the receive
12:37 marcelr           well ok
12:42 marcelr           julian_m: with your patch, i cannot edit quantity while it is zero; so i cannot save and i am stuck at neworderempty..
12:43 marcelr           the item block is completely empty
12:43 julian_m          marcelr, with acqcreateitem='ordering' ?
12:43 marcelr           yes
12:44 julian_m          marcelr, be sure to refresh entirely the page (.js included), with firefox I had some problems until I press <Ctrl>-F5
12:44 marcelr           try
12:45 marcelr           no change.
12:45 julian_m          marcelr, ok.. :(
12:45 kf                marcelr: you can never order less than 1
12:46 marcelr           it is 0 and readonly
12:46 kf                oh
12:46 kf                sorry
12:46 kf                misunderstood the question then
12:46 kf                you have always to add at least 1 item
12:46 marcelr           cannot do it
12:46 marcelr           no item block to see
12:46 kf                marcelr: did you just start testing? I had it happen to me once while testing, but after F5+ctrl it worked
12:46 kf                that the item form didn't showup
12:46 marcelr           did some refreshes just now
12:46 kf                and after that it worked
12:46 kf                I thought it was because of that, so didn't note as a bug
12:48 julian_m          marcelr, i want to be sure to understand, does the item form show up once, and disappear after clicking on save, or just never shows up?
12:48 marcelr           see 7178 uploaded a screenshot
12:50 * jcamins         looks to see if there's anything to sign off on this morning as he tries to wake up.

12:51 jcamins           marcelr: are you working on bug 7609?

12:51 marcelr           not now
12:51 marcelr           7178 currently
12:51 marcelr           well working..
12:51 marcelr           it does not work
12:52 kf                jcamins: that is a good idea
12:52 julian_m          marcelr, tested just now, freshly rebased on master, I reproduce your problem, but when I hit ctrl-F5, the form appears :-/
12:53 marcelr           julian: added a comment
12:53 marcelr           about template neworderempty
12:53 marcelr           that is the problem
12:53 kf                marcelr++
12:54 kf                successful qa - found what I missed :)
12:54 kf                sure it can be fixed and then it will be awesome
12:54 marcelr           julian: your patch introduces that line
12:56 slef              any suggestions for who's got a nice library logo on their koha?
12:56 jcamins           slef: ACPL?
12:56 kf                ^^
12:56 jcamins           It's very popular in India.
12:56 slef              wahanui: ACPL?
12:56 wahanui           slef: no idea
12:56 julian_m          marcelr, I don't think readonly is your problem, this is the normal behaviour. The problem is that you don't see the form and therefore can't add items
12:56 slef              jcamins: myacpl.org ?
12:56 jcamins           ACPL is Athens County Public library.
12:56 jcamins           slef: right.
12:57 marcelr           julian: it is the combination of 0 + readonly?
12:57 slef              I'd like one that is using prog templates if possible, to give a small library an idea
12:57 kf                julian_m, marcelr: I think that is right
12:57 jcamins           oleonard uses prog.
12:57 jcamins           slef: I think I'm missing something about what you're looking for.
12:57 slef              ACPL bust their logo out of the usual logo position (opacCss maybe)
12:58 kf                slef: I think most libraries use prog, others don't work well, it's all css and js
12:58 slef              I'm looking for a nice logo in the usual logo position (sorry for not qualifying it)
12:58 jcamins           Ah.
12:59 jcamins           Well, this one is... not awful, maybe: http://donum.numismatics.org/
12:59 kf                hfjs.bsz-bw.de ?
13:00 julian_m          marcelr, the quantity is automatically incremented as you add items. This behaviour is not different from master, right? (the difference is that on master quantity start at 1 instead of 0)
13:00 slef              jcamins: it'll do as an example
13:00 slef              kf: nice one
13:01 marcelr           julian_m: but cannot add items too
13:01 marcelr           see jpg
13:03 julian_m          marcelr, yes, that is the problem, did you see any javascript errors (with firebug or other) ?
13:03 marcelr           no but will look
13:05 marcelr           lots of errors there
13:05 marcelr           Waarschuwing: Onbekende eigenschap ‘zoom’.  Declaratie genegeerd.
13:05 marcelr           oops dutch
13:05 marcelr           Unknown property zoom
13:06 marcelr           same for Xposition
13:06 marcelr           all coming from yui/skon
13:06 marcelr           all coming from yui/skin
13:08 julian_m          marcelr, still talking about neworderempty o_ô ? I never seen these messages before... :-/
13:09 marcelr           yes one refresh there generates tens of warnings
13:09 marcelr           from skin and staff-global mostly
13:12 marcelr           julian_m: if i repeat on current master, i also have lots of warnings but they are not all the same (!)
13:12 julian_m          marcelr, ok, it seems that some javascript fails and so the piece of js that should load the item form is not executed. don't know what to do since i do not reproduce
13:12 jcamins           marcelr: do you have any custom javascript in intranetuserjs?
13:12 marcelr           no
13:12 julian_m          marcelr, any special version of yui libraries maybe? :)
13:12 * jcamins         is out of ideas, then.
13:13 marcelr           no special yui too
13:14 marcelr           dutch firefox though??
13:15 marcelr           julian: do you test with english or french firefox?
13:16 marcelr           or another browser?
13:17 julian_m          marcelr, without the patch do you get the same error messages?
13:17 julian_m          marcelr, firefox 10 (french)
13:17 marcelr           not all message are the same
13:18 marcelr           in both cases lots of warnings
13:18 jcamins           marcelr: you've had other instances of javascript problems.
13:18 jcamins           There was that bug in cataloging that I couldn't duplicate.
13:18 jcamins           What version of FF are you using?
13:18 marcelr           was that javascript?
13:18 marcelr           9.0.1
13:19 jcamins           marcelr: oh, no, I guess it wasn't javascript.
13:19 jcamins           Well, browser-related problems.
13:19 marcelr           yeah
13:20 jcamins           What OS are you on?
13:22 marcelr           windows 7
13:22 wahanui           windows 7 is starting to tick me off
13:22 jcamins           lol
13:22 marcelr           yes
13:22 magnus_afk        hehe
13:22 jcamins           I think other people are using Windows 7 too, though, so I have no idea what the problem could be.
13:24 marcelr           submitting nice comment on 7178 :-)

13:26 marcelr           understood that?
13:27 kf                hm?
13:27 marcelr           reading it
13:27 kf                I meant hope my comment on 7557 makes sense :)
13:28 marcelr           kf: would you be changing the note regularly then?
13:28 kf                no, but each library can have a default note
13:29 kf                like: please keep the issue only for 2 days max before giving it to the next person on list
13:29 kf                and if they want, they can add an individual note too (that's already there), like: CD is in the office of ...

13:30 kf                :)
13:32 marcelr           kf: will let it pass qa
13:32 kf                very cool - thank you :)
13:33 kf                marcelr: reading my own comment it does not make much sense.. glad you understood anyway :)
13:34 marcelr           boom

13:36 julian_m          marcelr, at the end of your error messages, i see this "http://libdevelop.rijksmuseum.nl:8009/cgi-bin/koha/services/itemrecorddisplay.pl?frameworkcode=ACQ

13:39 kf                marcelr: in the koha logs?

13:44 * marcelr         thinks that security is a great thing, except when forgetting your keys
13:45 julian_m          just by curiosity marcelr, why selinux was 'blocking' this script?
13:46 marcelr           script in a new folder did not have the right label for a perl script

13:57 kivilahtio        do you have electronic material?
13:58 kivilahtio        how does Koha deal with eBooks for ex.?
13:58 oleonard          kivilahtio: We have MARC records for ebooks and use the 856u field to point to the URL

13:59 kf                nice links :)
14:00 kf                kivilahtio: you will have to ask oleonard how he did that :)
14:02 kivilahtio        how do you control that patrons delete eMaterial after the loan period expires?
14:02 oleonard          kivilahtio: We don't. the DRM is handled by the service we subscribe to.
14:03 kivilahtio        oleonard: ok, that's good to hear
14:03 kivilahtio        oleonard: makes our job much easier
14:03 kivilahtio        oleonard: out of curiosity? how much does this service cost?
14:04 kivilahtio        oleonard: the eBook services for us are ridiculously expensive
14:04 oleonard          I don't know the numbers because I don't handle the money. We're part of a consortium of libraries and we are obligated to spend a certain amount of money each year
14:04 kivilahtio        with no way to control how many eBooks can be concurrently loaned, we will run out of budget in a flash
14:07 magnus_afk        huh, suddenly my dev install gives a 500 error and the logs say "Premature end of script headers". weirdness!
14:10 marcelr           ay
14:12 kf                magnus_afk: ouch!
14:13 magnus_afk        /var/log/apache2/error.log says No such file or directory: exec of '/home/magnus/kohaclone/opac/opac-search.pl' failed

14:14 slef              magnus_afk: mount | grep home ?
14:15 magnus_afk        no output?
14:15 slef              I'm thinking of two possibilities: whatever fs that is on is mounted noexec, or the perl isn't where the first line of opac-search.pl says
14:16 magnus_afk        $ which perl
14:16 magnus_afk        /usr/bin/perl
14:16 slef              possible third problem is that the apache configuration is misdirecting it somehow (handlers, suexec, or something else) but the error seems a bit confusing
14:16 slef              ah I knpw
14:17 slef              can you: sudo -u www-data ls -l /home/magnus/kohaclone/opac/opac-search.pl ?

14:17 slef              that was looking for a fourth possibility: could be missing o+rx on a parent folder, most likely /home/magnus
14:18 slef              well, that's an odd one. Can it run any CGI scripts? Any perl CGI scripts?
14:19 slef              If yes to both, can it run a simple helloworld.pl from /home/magnus/kohaclone/opac/ ?
14:19 slef              I'm curious as to what the problem is :)
14:19 magnus_afk        me too ;-)
14:19 magnus_afk        other pages in the opac work fine
14:20 magnus_afk        opac-search.pl and opac-user.pl give errors

14:20 slef              git diff doesn't suggest anything unusual changed about it?

14:22 marcelr           magnus: save changes and git reset?
14:22 slef              probably someone been editing it from Windows with an unclean tool?
14:22 slef              open it in an editor that handles both DOS and Unix encodings and change it back to Unix
14:22 slef              or use fromdos if you have it installed
14:23 marcelr           dos2unix?
14:23 * magnus_afk      shudders at the thought of unclean windows-tools
14:23 slef              marcelr: I was thinking tofrodos
14:23 marcelr           ?
14:24 slef              I had one site, years ago, where someone kept breaking scripts and refused to fix or change their tools, so I actually made a "perl\015" symlink to perl :-/

15:00 kf                can I get some opinions on bug 7602?

15:01 wizzyrea          oh, slef
15:01 kf                wizzyrea: please *smiles nicely*
15:01 wizzyrea          is there a page you wanted to have be the landing page for kohacon2012
15:01 wizzyrea          I guessed for the website
15:02 wizzyrea          kf: I think I'm with you - if you can't change it, what's the harm in viewing it?
15:03 wizzyrea          but then again
15:03 kf                I am torn
15:03 wizzyrea          we don't use acquisitions
15:03 wizzyrea          and I know people are titchy about money
15:03 kf                so looking for opinions
15:03 kf                it still assumes you have general access to the module
15:04 kf                only not limiting to a special permission one of them is enough
15:04 magnuse           wizzyrea: :-)
15:04 kf                I really not sure what's best, but will make it work like people suggest it shoudl :)

15:07 wizzyrea          there
15:08 * oleonard        notices Bug 7629 needs signoff, how interesting...
15:08 wizzyrea          we have a site that just upgraded their self check machines, and have noticed rather odd behaviour out of them, but they are not *broken*
15:08 kf                wizzyrea: what is the behaviour?
15:08 kf                we updated a library last week :)
15:09 wizzyrea          they connect then time out then reconnect and time out and the SIP services never terminate at the server side.
15:09 wizzyrea          ending up with a zillion hung SIP processes.
15:09 paul_p            wizzyrea without the patch = present a borrower card / wait 10 seconds minimum / message OK / present book 1 / "can't be checked-out" / present book 1 / message "ok, checked out / present book 2 / "can't be checked-out" / present book 2 / message "ok, checked out"  /...
15:09 wizzyrea          ! that's alarming.
15:10 paul_p            with the patch : present borrower card / immediate OK / present book 1 / OK, checked out / present book  / OK checked out
15:10 kf                uh
15:10 kf                weird!
15:10 kf                it seems to work
15:10 kf                we had problems with the sip server (it died sometimes) but now it seems ok
15:10 wizzyrea          kf weren't you talking about something like that a week or so ago?
15:10 kf                yes
15:10 paul_p            yes, very weird. And not specific to this customer, as frederic told me he had the same problem
15:10 kf                rangi recommended changing the settings for min spare
15:10 kf                or whatever this is called, I told uli and he did... and now it's still alive
15:10 wizzyrea          right, and you know what I bet that helped
15:11 kf                we want to change it back sometime, testing if that really was the problem
15:11 kf                but seems stable now
15:11 wizzyrea          because it doesn't reach the limit of sip servers
15:11 paul_p            kf we looked at 3M parameters, and haven't found anything about that. But the library said they'll ask 3M
15:11 kf                paul_p: this library is using a german vendor - but we have another with 3m that is waitin gfor the update
15:11 kf                last library we have to update
15:12 wizzyrea          I think what you're seeing is the timeout problem.
15:13 wizzyrea          that colin was talking about on bug 5586
15:13 huginn            04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5586 normal, P3, ---, colin.campbell, Pushed to Master , SIP line-endings should use proper SPEC-compliant \r
15:13 kf                hm right number?
15:13 wizzyrea          yep
15:13 wizzyrea          info's in the comments
15:14 wizzyrea          we changed it -> colin started having trouble with timeouts
15:14 wizzyrea          traced it back to the \r
15:15 wizzyrea          we just got an update to our 3M machines, and an update to our Koha - with the old ones, it was no problem
15:15 wizzyrea          with the new ones, we see this weird behavior
15:16 wizzyrea          but I think because we have a high min spare and/or because we have a cron that checks for too many SIP processes and restarts the sipserver when it reaches a threshold
15:16 wizzyrea          we don't see the actual *problem*
15:16 wizzyrea          because there is always a sipserver to (re)connect to
15:18 kf                for us it was the sipserver dying - not the self check
15:18 kf                perhaps file a bug report?
15:19 kf                I think documenting would be good
15:19 kf                see if others had similar problems
15:27 wizzyrea          oh, but the symptom of the two things is essentially the same
15:27 wizzyrea          "the self check doesn't work right" because "the sip server is dying"
15:27 kf                ah
15:27 kf                thought you said the self check died
15:27 wizzyrea          it hangs up it's connection with the server, afaict
15:28 wizzyrea          and obsessively tries to reconnect until you run out of spare servers
15:28 wizzyrea          and then it stops working altogether
15:30 kf                :(
15:40 wizzyrea          ooo proper iTiva support
15:41 wizzyrea          oy wow that's gonna be fun to test.

15:46 alaquerre         Hi All, Is there a way to exchange information between Koha and Symphony ( SirsiDynix ). Basically, we have a city where the city Library is with Symphony and the college would like to implement Koha and still have access to the documents of the city and vice versa. Is there some kind of bridge for that ?
15:47 magnuse           wizzyrea, kf: sounds like the safest thing is to restrict access then?
15:47 kf                magnuse: yep, I think order_manage it is then :)
15:47 kf                I have no problem with that
15:47 kf                only didn't want to go the wrong way
15:48 jcamins           alaquerre: you could use Z39.50, possibly, but what is it you're trying to do?
15:49 wizzyrea          the first question?
15:49 wahanui           the first question is probably "What are you trying to do?"
15:50 alaquerre         jcamins - Most important feature is PEB... dont know how to say that in english... "Custom Hold "
15:51 alaquerre         So that the city will be able to ask a document from the college.  Just like site transfert in Koha but with another system.
15:51 jcamins           alaquerre: Inter-Library Loan.
15:51 alaquerre         Exactly!
15:51 jcamins           fulfillment?
15:52 jcamins           Bah. wahanui doesn't know about fulfillment.
15:52 jcamins           FulfILLment might be worth looking at.
15:52 jcamins           It's an open source ILL thing.
15:52 oleonard          FulfILLment is http://fulfillment-ill.org/
15:53 alaquerre         Interresting! I'll have a look
15:53 alaquerre         Thanks!!
15:53 oleonard          FulfILLment is also an open source project designed to link library catalogs no matter which integrated library system his or her library uses
15:53 wahanui           okay, oleonard.
15:56 magnuse           but it's not ready for use yet, i think?
15:59 jcamins           magnuse: I don't know. It's probably the best option for a "local" ILL facility, though.
16:03 alaquerre         The hard part is that we will still need to ask Symphony to somehow use this connector... :-)  I can do it easily on Koha and try it... But not with Symphony.  If at some point I have the same kind of situation with Evergreen it will be possible...  Thanks again for your help.
16:03 wizzyrea          I think symphony is one of the first systems to have a connector built for it
16:03 wizzyrea          by fulfillment
16:03 * wizzyrea        could be wrong about that
16:04 wizzyrea          there are... 6-7 connectors that are being initially developed?
16:06 slef              wizzyrea: can I have a kohacon12 page on k-c.o that I can edit as needed? We'll set something else up later.
16:07 wizzyrea          sure, of course
16:07 slef              thanks!
16:07 slef              Do I have power to just Add Page?
16:07 wizzyrea          give it a try, and if you don't, I will give you that :)

16:58 * oleonard        give IE9 the finger for being a hot mess of usability nightmares

17:19 oleonard          I think it's mostly a French library thing Shane-S
17:20 oleonard          it doesn't work very well with American-style address output
17:20 Shane-S           okay, I will skip those then :P . Trying a batch patron upload, and working on the template
17:21 * oleonard        wonders why Bugzilla doesn't have a theme that's all peach and teal
17:22 Shane-S           does order matter for batch patron upload, ie, if I put "sex" on say column 2, versus 20 would it matter?
17:23 oleonard          I assume so Shane-S. Did you download the starter CSV?
17:23 Shane-S           I did, but I am cutting fields out, hoping it goes by the header "name" not the order
17:23 * oleonard        hasn't played around with it much
17:24 Shane-S           I will find out my answer the hard way then :P
17:27 * oleonard        remembers he was working on some tags stuff yesterday and wonders whether he should strap on the ole power loader...
17:30 jcamins           Shane-S: you cannot remove columns.
17:30 jcamins           Shane-S: the format has to be *exactly* the same.
17:31 Shane-S           hmm..that is a pain to "paste" data into
17:32 Shane-S           have to do it column by column
17:32 jcamins           Shane-S: a script might be your best option.
17:33 Shane-S           nah, I can do it. Just more time then sorting it down to the columns we will actually use
17:34 * paul_p          almost finished deploying the 10 sandboxes (7 done...)
17:34 Shane-S           I might have to look at the import script, maybe I can modify it to be more "smart" and if a non-required column isn't included it NULLS the value for you.
17:34 paul_p            RM newsletter writen, will publish it tomorrow
17:34 jcamins           Shane-S: of course you *can* do it, but a script might be less trouble.
17:34 paul_p            another very busy week !

17:37 Shane-S           I think it is already smart by that line
17:39 jcamins           Shane-S: I was under the impression it didn't work. You could try.

18:34 sekjal            jcamins_away:  cool
18:34 sekjal            I'll keep reading though the code, looking for possible edge cases and such
18:34 jcamins_away      A mixture of LC, SZB-SW, local, other, and what-the-heck-do-you-call-that-oh-my-god-my-eyes.
18:34 jcamins_away      :)
18:35 jcamins_away      It was not any more broken for the last option than the current functionality.
18:39 rangi             awesome III is dead
18:39 rangi             when you are bought by an equity company, thats your death warrant signed
18:40 jcamins_away      rangi: what?!?
18:40 rangi             III just got sold to vulture capitalists
18:40 rangi             http://www.alatechsource.org/blog/2012/03/breaking-news-innovative-interfaces-joins-the-private-equity-club.html
18:43 Shane-S           hmm using the original template...and import_borrowers.pl isn't reading the header file of the .csv, anywhere I can look for more then the feedback?
18:44 sekjal            huzzah the bell tolls for III, but is that going to mean more III to Koha migrations?  those are a bear
18:44 jcamins_away      sekjal: we'll get it down to a science.
18:44 jcamins_away      :)
18:45 sekjal            jcamins_away:  we'll need to do a lot of work on Koha Acquisitions first... the two structures just don't match up
18:46 sekjal            and librarians do all kinds of work arounds in III, so even a canonical mapping needs to be double-checked or completely redone if their workflows are adapted
18:46 sekjal            it's doable
18:46 sekjal            but ugh
18:46 jcamins_away      sekjal++ # that sounded like volunteering to me!
18:47 sekjal            well, my library's consortium *is* looking at looking at a new ILS in the next few years.... maybe
18:47 sekjal            but we're Aleph now
18:58 rangi             they got sold to equity firms too
18:58 rangi             III was the last one left
19:00 rangi             http://blog.bigballofwax.co.nz/2012/03/02/bug-statistics-for-february/
19:02 sekjal            rangi:  glad to see I'm still doing a significant amount of the QA work
19:03 Shane-S           Can I disable change your password for Patrons? Also, it was MS Excel that broke the CSV, OpenOffice healed it :P
19:03 rangi             sekjal: yep, you actually did more in feb than jan
19:05 rangi             37 in jan, 47 in feb .. a good trend :)
19:05 sekjal            rangi:  interesting
19:05 rangi             2 days less in the month too
19:06 rangi             actually total numbers are up too
19:06 rangi             so thats all good
19:06 * jcamins_away    signed off more than twice as many bugs in February as in January.
19:06 sekjal            I wonder how busy March and April will be...
19:07 * jcamins_away    suspects the number of sign-offs from him will be directly proportional to the amount of frustration the contractors cause..
19:10 chris_n           heya rangi
19:11 rangi             Heya chris_n
19:12 rangi             Jcamins: http://www.angelikafilmcenter.com/
19:12 rangi             Near u?
19:13 rangi             Showing an nz film tomorrow
19:13 jcamins_away      Oh, there's the address.
19:14 jcamins_away      Yeah, everthing in Manhattan is nearby, basicall.
19:14 rangi             Cool
19:15 oleonard          Just like everyone in NZ knows everyone else, right?
19:15 jcamins_away      oleonard: lol. Except that Manhattan really is tiny.
19:15 rangi             My wife is at the Hilton somewhere near there too
19:15 jcamins_away      Well, except for the parts at the top of the island, which don't really count.
19:17 oleonard          Shane-S: Did you find it? The preference is called OpacPasswordChange
19:18 Shane-S           Didn't look yet, my ADD kicked in and I wanted to populate my cart and see what I can do :P
19:18 Shane-S           And though I have available item I can place a hold...so I am looking for that setting now
19:20 jcamins_away      Shane-S: if you meant "can't place a hold," the problem might be that you don't have circ rules configured.
19:20 Shane-S           probably
19:21 Shane-S           I remember that somewhere..and wasn't sure what it was for...but now I see that is what you do as a normal patron...put items on hold so they are available for you when you arrive to check them out
19:24 Shane-S           Can I make a branch that can only see its own books and not the main libraries?
19:24 Shane-S           An administrator here loans out books, and she thought it would be great to have her own branch for "Staff" Patrons to reserve and checkout books
19:25 jcamins_away      Shane-S: not easily.
19:26 wizzyrea          ooh, I knew I had done a lot but didn't realize it was *that* many
19:26 Shane-S           so basically they just see all the books, and it just shows that branch having availability?
19:27 Shane-S           I wasn't even thinking of branches till the principal asked if her books could be stored and checked out with it as well
19:28 Shane-S           then I got to thinking, we could do that with DVDs as well, and each room can be a branch and people could search and know who has what DVD and "hold" it
19:28 wizzyrea          well you can do that with itypes or ccodes as well
19:28 cait              perhaps usevlocations?
19:28 wizzyrea          or locations
19:28 wizzyrea          jinx :)
19:28 cait              easier :)
19:28 Shane-S           isn't libraries.branches, locations that same screen?
19:29 wizzyrea          ccode might make sense for the principal's collection.
19:29 wizzyrea          no
19:29 wizzyrea          we are talking about the location that's in the item record, the one defined by authorized values.

19:30 wizzyrea          :)
19:31 jcamins_away      Yippee!
19:31 sekjal            but getting those two knocked off the list would go a long way towards making me feel productive
19:31 wizzyrea          ^.^
19:31 jcamins_away      sekjal++ # for a herculean QA effort
19:32 cait              sekjal++
19:32 jcamins_away      Ooh, I like the idea of having the "Machine generated authority record" be translatable.
19:32 jcamins_away      Even just a syspref would be an improvement.
19:32 sekjal            jcamins++  schuster++
19:36 sekjal            okay, brb, getting coffee
19:43 oleonard          Oh, Bug 7636 looks like fun
19:43 huginn            04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7636 major, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, NEW , error when trying to email cart when opacuserlogin set to don't allow
19:46 nengard           sorry oleonard :)
19:46 nengard           i say just hide the email button if that preference is set to don't allow
19:46 nengard           that's the easiest thing to do
19:46 nengard           i would think
19:47 oleonard          I think you're quite right
19:57 oleonard          The "recent comments" link should be hidden too, right? Since comments cant be added if you're not logged in?
19:58 cait              hm but you can look at the comments form others?
19:58 wizzyrea          this is for sites with opacuserlogin is never allowed though, right
19:59 oleonard          The only way it would work is if opacuserlogin was on for a while, then turned off
19:59 oleonard          ...that seems a fairly unlikely scenario
19:59 cait              but woulnd't you just turn off the comments view then?
20:01 jcamins_away      You could add comments from the staff client, no?
20:01 jcamins_away      Ah.
20:01 jcamins_away      Never mind then.
20:01 oleonard          You can't add comments from the staff client
20:02 oleonard          [% IF ( opacuserlogin && reviewson && OpacShowRecentComments ) %]
20:04 oleonard          This is why we need sub-preferences. Turning off opacuserlogin could disable a bunch of stuff that doesn't make sense with it turned off (comments, tagging, etc)
20:10 oleonard          Bam!
20:12 nengard           oleonard you are right
20:12 nengard           lots of things shouldn't show up  if you can't log in
20:13 nengard           add to that list: add to private list, place holds
20:14 oleonard          Where do you see the option to place holds with opacuserlogin disabled?
20:14 cait              most of them can be switched off separately
20:14 cait              I have done it
20:14 cait              for a project
20:14 cait              it can all be done by using the existing system preferences

20:22 jcamins_away      Shane-S: the two don't have anything to do with each other, no
20:22 ibeardslee        rangi: we threw a couple of retired PCs at them
20:23 Shane-S           okay, as I saw homebranch in there
20:23 oleonard          and 1219 is old and should be WONTFIX
20:23 jcamins_away      Oh, yeah, that's you. :)
20:23 rangi             ibeardslee: *nod* i figured catalyst would had to have done something for it :)
20:24 Shane-S           Okay, I was just going through and saw homebranch but didn't understand the scope
20:24 Shane-S           well down to 8% battery time to go home :P
20:37 sekjal            wizzyrea:  7001 no longer applies... but it looks like it's just a DB update issue
20:37 wizzyrea          yea, that happens every time
20:37 wizzyrea          want me to fix it and resub or...
20:38 jcamins_away      If you use git am -3iu /tmp/${WHATEVER} it might fix itself.
20:38 sekjal            jcamins_away:  it did not
20:38 sekjal            I'll see if I can resolve it myself
20:38 jcamins_away      Ah well.
20:40 sekjal            yup, easy fix
20:45 wizzyrea          woot!
20:46 * wizzyrea        hopes and hopes there hasn't been shifting sand underneath that one
20:47 oleonard          updatedatabase conflicts are usually easy to fix. I don't think anyone should have to resubmit for that kind of conflict
20:48 cait              oleonard++
20:49 rangi             oleonard: heard of jean shin?
20:49 oleonard          No
20:50 rangi             oleonard++ # i agree
20:50 rangi             oleonard: ahh good its not just me then :)
20:50 rangi             my wife is an art conf in nyc and was all excited about her
20:51 oleonard          I'm so out of touch with the art world. My art school self would be sorely disappointed in me.
20:51 oleonard          I don't have much patience for it anymore.
20:52 rangi             it does take a lot of effort to be up to date
20:52 wizzyrea          i don't know how hipsters do it!
20:52 rangi             laurel is now a sole trader, so a registered company essentially, and does her teaching on contract
20:52 rangi             so she can now go to things like this, as tax writeoffs
20:52 wizzyrea          niiice
20:52 oleonard          Looks like some fun stuff: http://www.jeanshin.com/images.htm

20:57 wizzyrea          hee
20:58 sekjal            wizzyrea: was it intentional that the print checkout slip should now show borrowernumber instead of barcode in the "Print Receipt for.." line?
20:58 wizzyrea          it's configurable
20:58 wizzyrea          you can have it do either I think
20:58 sekjal            right
20:58 wizzyrea          but no, not strictly intentional afaik
20:59 sekjal            but just doing a straight upgrade, no customization, that's the only significant difference in how slips render
20:59 sekjal            (checkout receipts, anyway)
20:59 wizzyrea          *nod*
20:59 wizzyrea          should probably change that eh
20:59 wizzyrea          to be how it is now
20:59 wizzyrea          I can do a followup?
20:59 wizzyrea          have to add transitslip anyway
20:59 wizzyrea          via followup
21:00 libsysguy         yo
21:00 wizzyrea          hey
21:00 libsysguy         so I have an ebook that is showing up as checked out
21:00 libsysguy         but its not in the issues table
21:00 wizzyrea          old_issues?
21:00 libsysguy         where else could that info get putted from?
21:00 wizzyrea          (maybe it's indexing?)
21:00 wizzyrea          and where is it showing as checked out
21:00 wizzyrea          on the results or on the detail
21:00 cait              libsysguy: onloan
21:00 libsysguy         the opac
21:00 wahanui           hmmm... the opac is for patrons
21:00 cait              in items
21:01 libsysguy         it can get set in items
21:01 libsysguy         ??
21:01 cait              the duedate is set in items
21:01 cait              items.onloan - it always was :) used to be boolean, now is a date
21:01 cait              and gets indexed by zebra for availability
21:01 wizzyrea          sometimes the indexes get out of whack
21:01 wizzyrea          and you'll see somethign in the results that's checked out, when it's really available
21:02 cait              ^^
21:02 jcamins_away      Or there's data in the onloan from migration.
21:02 schuster          give it the interval for rebuild to catch up.
21:02 wizzyrea          usually updating the record in some small way (i like putting a space in the public note) and saving it triggers another zebraqueue index process
21:02 libsysguy         hmm ok ill give that a shot
21:02 wizzyrea          and then it's all happy again
21:02 jcamins_away      schuster: I don't know if you saw, but sekjal passed the patch for bug 7284. :)
21:03 huginn            04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7284 major, P3, ---, jcamins, Passed QA , Authority matching algorithm improvements
21:03 libsysguy         so onload should be set to a 0-ed out timestamp?
21:03 oleonard          jcamins_away: You need a new hobby now!
21:03 libsysguy         onloan**
21:03 wizzyrea          libsysguy?
21:03 wahanui           libsysguy is Koha's hottest developer or partying with swedes on his deck
21:03 libsysguy         hehe
21:03 sekjal            wizzyrea:  it looks like it's not actually the content of the slip, just the page header, which likely wouldn't show on most receipt printers.
21:04 sekjal            so I think it's a non-issue
21:04 wizzyrea          oh cool.
21:04 jcamins_away      oleonard: as soon as it's pushed, I'll start searching couch cushions for funding for the other authority-related projects I proposed.
21:04 * wizzyrea        waits for the shakedown
21:05 libsysguy         jcamins_away is in the authority mafia
21:05 jcamins_away      "That's a real nice authority record you got there. Real nice. Would be a shame if something happened to it."
21:06 libsysguy         ^^ LOL
21:06 libsysguy         omg is that a headless authority in my bed
21:07 libsysguy         or perhaps that should have read "omg is that an authority header in my bed"
21:07 eythian_bucklame  *leader
21:07 jcamins_away      eythian_bucklame: we spend too much time around MARC. I was thinking that, too.
21:08 eythian_bucklame  far, far too much time
21:08 * jcamins_away    is sure there is a "take me to your leader" joke in here, but can't quite find it.
21:08 oleonard          Oooh, quitting time!
21:09 eythian_bucklame  quitter
21:09 oleonard          Bye #koha. All-day meeting tomorrow, so, uh, weep for me.
21:09 eythian_bucklame  weekend tomorrow!
21:09 eythian_bucklame  fly back home this evening.
21:09 jcamins_away      Meeting with a contractor tomorrow.
21:09 jcamins_away      Possibly all-day.
21:10 cait              hi eythian :)
21:10 eythian_bucklame  hi cait
21:11 libsysguy         ok si its not in issues, old_issues, onloan is set to 0 date...i ran an index after adding something to the public not...still says its checked out
21:11 libsysguy         im not sure what im missing
21:11 eythian_bucklame  make onloan set to null?
21:11 jcamins_away      libsysguy: it shows up as checked out on detail and results, or just results?
21:12 libsysguy         just the results
21:12 jcamins_away      And it displays properly on the staff client
21:12 jcamins_away      *?
21:13 wizzyrea          and on the detail?
21:13 eythian_bucklame  sounds like a zebra reindex needing issue
21:13 libsysguy         if I go to look at the item in the checkout status i see "not checked out"
21:13 wizzyrea          yea, it still sounds like an index issue to me
21:13 libsysguy         hmm
21:13 wizzyrea          eythian probably has it, it should be null
21:13 wizzyrea          items.onloan
21:13 wizzyrea          but
21:13 libsysguy         but I don't wanna do a full index :'(
21:13 wizzyrea          what you should d
21:13 wizzyrea          no
21:13 wizzyrea          just go in
21:13 libsysguy         it take sooo longgg :p
21:13 wizzyrea          edit the record
21:13 wizzyrea          save it
21:13 wizzyrea          wait for the zebraqueue
21:14 wizzyrea          or check it out and back in
21:14 wizzyrea          which would do the same thing
21:14 wizzyrea          more or less.
21:14 jcamins_away      ^^ that's what I'd do.
21:14 libsysguy         fixed
21:14 libsysguy         set to null and indexed
21:14 libsysguy         thanks :)
21:14 jcamins_away      And, with that thought, I think it's time to call it a day.
21:14 jcamins_away      Good night, #koh.
21:14 jcamins_away      #koha
21:15 jcamins_away      Wish me luck with the contractor tomorrow.

21:19 rangi             libsysguy: there is a bug that im not sure what status its in, that allows partial reindexes
21:19 rangi             ie you can give it a range of biblionumbers
21:19 wizzyrea          oh yea
21:19 rangi             you might want to find and test it
21:19 rangi             itw ould be super helpful in situations like this
21:19 rangi             run an update query limit 1000
21:19 rangi             then then just reindex those, rinse and repeat
21:20 rangi             helps do mass changes less disruptively
21:21 wizzyrea          Bug 7246

21:23 sekjal            uhoh.  found a problem with 7001
21:23 wizzyrea          noooo
21:23 sekjal            it's not mod_perl (and thus presumably Plack) compliant
21:23 wizzyrea          gurg.
21:23 sekjal            sub getletter modifies a variable declared outside itself
21:25 sekjal            there's no in-line documentation around it, either, so I'm not entirely sure why it's doing this
21:25 wizzyrea          :/
21:26 bag               huh?  mod_perl standards
21:26 bag               I missed that memo
21:26 bag               but that would be sweet
21:27 sekjal            mod_perl, or any tool other speedup that precompiles entire scripts as subroutines are going to run into a problem with this
21:27 wizzyrea          does it pre-exist 7001?
21:27 sekjal            no
21:27 sekjal            introduced by
21:27 wizzyrea          boo.
21:27 bag               yeah no I'm just saying - that mod_perl would be sweet
21:28 sekjal            I'll write it up in the bug report, and maybe Srdjan can explain what that particular bit of code is doing.  It may be worth the trouble down the line for the immediate gains, if reimplementing it would be hard
21:29 wizzyrea          i've no doubt that he'll fix it post haste if he can. :)
21:30 sekjal            in other news, love the variable name $want_librarian in GetPreparedLetter().
21:30 sekjal            yes, always!
21:30 eythian_bucklame  huh, srdjan should know better: the other big perl project he works on is mod_perl
21:30 wizzyrea          :)
21:31 sekjal            eythian_bucklame:  perhaps he's got more up-to-date information than I.
21:31 sekjal            but from what I know, that set up is problematic
21:31 eythian_bucklame  it's possible, I'm not sure. Could it be something that doesn't change?
21:31 eythian_bucklame  that's the only reason I could think of off the top of my head.
21:36 sekjal            it may be... it looks like it could be a hash of a hash of a hash that stores everything in it's own little cubby
21:37 wizzyrea          "perl cubbies"
21:40 eythian_bucklame  hmm, that's still something that could grow problematically.
21:51 sekjal            notes made.

21:55 rangi             ahh
21:55 rangi             i used to get my game on, but then i took an arrow to the knee
21:55 sekjal            trying to keep the students out of the bars on Thursday night
21:55 cait              lol
21:55 * wizzyrea        giggles at skyrim jokes
21:56 sekjal            night, all
22:00 wizzyrea          ok
22:00 wizzyrea          I have a bit of a stumper. Well, it's a stumper for me
22:25 * jcamins_away    has one too.
22:26 jcamins_away      wth was wrong with "dumb" phones that worked, that we needed to switch to "smart" phones that don't?
22:26 Space_Librarian   that is one of life's big mysteries
22:26 wizzyrea          hah
22:26 wizzyrea          I just realized that I never finished my stumper
22:26 jcamins_away      wizzyrea: what was your stumper?
22:26 wizzyrea          so I'm looking to get a report
22:26 wizzyrea          hahaha
22:26 wizzyrea          oh.
22:27 wizzyrea          right, a report that lists patron name + all of their lost items + what they owe
22:27 wizzyrea          this sounds easy
22:27 wizzyrea          but I keep getting every item that is lost that the patron has checked out
22:27 wizzyrea          so say, this person checked out jane eyre
22:27 wizzyrea          but they didn't lose it, another patron did
22:27 wizzyrea          I get those.

22:30 jcamins_away      Join accountlines to borrowernumber.
22:31 wizzyrea          see I knew I was doing something dumb.
22:33 jcamins_away      Why didn't I think of that...
22:34 jcamins_away      Software error? Remove and replace the battery!
22:34 wizzyrea          ?!
22:34 Space_Librarian   lol.
22:34 wizzyrea          oh, on your smart phone.
22:34 Space_Librarian   Which smartphone is giving you grief?
22:34 jcamins_away      HTC Incredible.
22:34 jcamins_away      Let's see... did that fix it?
22:35 Space_Librarian   HTC's are usually pretty good
22:35 jcamins_away      That's what I've been told.
22:35 wizzyrea          also, even iphones do nonsense like that
22:35 Space_Librarian   Wait - is it running ice cream sandwich or gingerbread?
22:36 jcamins_away      wizzyrea: I'd expect it from an iPhone.
22:36 jcamins_away      Space_Librarian: I don't know, it's running whatever version of Android it updated to.
22:37 wizzyrea          mine runs gingerbread and it's alright
22:37 jcamins_away      That did fix it, BTW.
22:37 Space_Librarian   which may be ice cream sandwich and it is a little buggy
22:37 wizzyrea          but I had to replace the UI, samsung's UI made me feel itchy.
22:37 jcamins_away      That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard of.
22:37 jcamins_away      Pull the battery for a software error.
22:37 * Space_Librarian is still waiting for hers to upgrade to ice cream sandwich
22:37 wizzyrea          dunno, you'd reboot a PC, which is basically what you've got
22:37 wizzyrea          a PC in your pocket.
22:37 jcamins_away      Why don't you just, I don't know, *turn off* when I choose the "turn off" button.
22:38 jcamins_away      wizzyrea: but when I choose "shut down" on my computer, I expect it to do that.
22:38 wizzyrea          but it doesn't always :)
22:38 * wizzyrea        argues
22:38 jcamins_away      lol
22:38 jcamins_away      You have a point there.
22:39 jcamins_away      But we're not talking about a locked up phone.
22:39 jcamins_away      We're talking about a phone that shuts off and then takes fifteen minutes to turn on very happily.
22:39 jcamins_away      Android version 2.3.4.
22:39 jcamins_away      And this problem goes back at least 1.5 years.
22:40 wizzyrea          O.o that's a bit extreme
22:43 jcamins_away      Did the report work with the revised join?
22:43 * wizzyrea        was waiting for it to run
22:43 wizzyrea          let me check
22:50 wizzyrea          no I don't think that worked
22:56 wizzyrea          hm no, gonna have to revisit that tomorrow
23:06 Space_Librarian   dearest wise and venerable denziens of koha. riddle me this: Where do I switch on the holds placed email?
23:07 Space_Librarian   (before I break something again?)
23:11 * Space_Librarian re-fixes the tools area again

23:34 huginn            Space_Librarian: 5
