Time Nick Message 00:09 wajasu fyi: apache-shared-intranet.conf i was looking to see if things are available and noticed: ls: cannot access /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/search.pl: No such file or directory 00:09 wajasu this is tcohen's koha-common.deb 00:10 wajasu but this is another issue maybe. 00:10 wajasu ScriptAlias for /search in intranet. 00:17 jcamins wajasu: I don't know what is going on with that. 00:19 eythian wajasu: sudo koha-enable dog? 00:33 wajasu i remove dthe dog and created cat and did koha-enable. its working. 00:39 wajasu ok. the webinstaller is running. it complained about wanting Template::Plugin::HtmlToText though 00:39 wajasu maybe he left that out of the deps 00:41 eythian it's a relatively new addition 00:43 wajasu ok. i'll just note it in the bug, that he needs to add the dep. 00:44 eythian well, if he's testing something else he doesn't, it's in the core packages. 00:47 wajasu so thats not his responsibility? having it in debian.packages or whatever drives the koha-common deps? 00:47 jcamins wajasu: right. That has nothing to do with him. 00:47 jcamins I think there's already a patch for it, too. 00:48 wajasu ok. ill just note my findings and signoff 00:52 jcamins Is it morning again already and no one told me?!? 00:52 eythian no, it's just afternoon. 00:53 jcamins eythian: then how do you explain oleonard's presence? 00:53 eythian magic. 00:53 oleonard 8:50AM, time to start work! 00:53 jcamins Maybe Ohio has seceded and is now 180 degrees out of phase with the rest of us. 00:55 eythian the rest of you. From my point of view, they seceded long ago. 00:57 * oleonard always ends up doing about half an hour of yak-shaving when working from his seldom-used VM at home 00:57 jcamins oleonard: why on earth are you working at this hour? 00:57 oleonard Got a bee in my bonnet 00:57 oleonard Why on earth are *you* working at this hour? 00:58 jcamins oleonard: uhhh... 00:58 * jcamins checks. 00:58 jcamins Aren't I usually? 00:58 * oleonard wouldn't know :P 00:59 oleonard Actually it seems like you work at all hours 01:00 jcamins Pretty much. 01:01 jcamins Being a business owner has its disadvantages. 01:03 oleonard Yeah, that's how kados got to be #1 in IRC stats 01:04 jcamins Hehe. 01:04 * jcamins is actually going to stop working now. 01:04 jcamins For a bit. 01:09 wajasu io had to add NamedVirtualHost: 8080 and Listen:8080 to ports.conf to get the staff client to work for the .deb so i guess i must fail it. or is he going to gen a new one? 01:09 jcamins_away wajasu: that has nothing to do with what you're testing. 01:09 wajasu good. 01:09 jcamins_away That is just the way packages work. 01:09 eythian wajasu: normally people don't use 8080 for the packages 01:10 jcamins_away If you want a non-standard Apache configuration, you need to configure it yourself. 01:10 eythian if you want to use 8080, you have to know how to tell that to apache 01:10 wajasu so where does the staff cleint default to these days? 01:11 eythian :80 01:11 eythian but on a different virtual host 01:11 wajasu its combined now? 01:11 pastebot "mtj" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "perl -wc" (29 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/211 01:11 wajasu maybe its the warning about the overlap that threw me off. 01:12 mtj does anyone know what thats about? ^^ 01:12 eythian wajasu: you probably misconfigured something then, basically they end up on different hostnames. 01:12 eythian assuming you set up /etc/koha-sites.conf correctly 01:13 wajasu i didn't have koha-sites.conf or the DNS env vars stuff. 01:13 mtj lots of 'Subroutine XXX redefined at C4/XXX.pm line XXX.' warns... 01:13 eythian wajasu: yeah, that'll be why 01:13 eythian I really need to make it ask those questions at install time. 01:17 wajasu so i guess i'll just apply the patch to master and signoff as usual trusting his deb. 01:19 mtj hmm, its seems to be all subs() in Reserves.pm have the weird 'redefined' warning :/ 01:36 wajasu something with that Exporter? 01:39 wajasu maybe the require Exporter; should be outside the BEGIN? like Search.pm has 01:39 wajasu just grabbing at straws. 01:42 tweetbot` [off] twitter: @Ngaideckard: "Some handy #kohails tutorials - http://t.co/ffuLQT3I" 01:44 mtj oooh, nice, weborange just corrected/updated their koha lists -> http://web.archiveorange.com/archive/project/lists.koha-community.org 01:44 mtj Discussion list for the Koha Library system (Recent threads) koha.lists.katipo.co.nz 01:44 oleonard Oh by the way, the owner of the Koha Live CD project on Sourceforge pulled the file 01:44 oleonard http://sourceforge.net/projects/kohalivecd/ 01:44 eythian oh, good 01:44 rgbv hi all 01:45 mtj oleonard, awesome news 01:46 mtj heya rgbv 01:47 rangi wow oleonard is still around! 01:47 oleonard Not still but again 01:47 rangi ahh 01:48 mtompset Greetings, #koha. 01:49 rgbv I want to add a span class to the status in the opac full bib view, looking for the right .tt to modify but I can't see it... 01:49 oleonard Which status rgbv ? 01:49 oleonard Editing the template isn't recommended, unless you're planning to submit a patch 01:50 rgbv usually Available, On loan ... 01:50 oleonard Is your goal to have a different style for each status? 01:51 rgbv I want to use jquery to alter wording to , say On order for items that are on order 01:52 oleonard rgbv, you should be able to do that by setting authorised values in the staff client 01:52 rangi not really oleonard 01:52 oleonard (although adding classes to that section would also be a worthwhile development) 01:52 oleonard No, rangi? 01:52 rangi because it needs to still be available, but say on order 01:52 rangi ie they still want to be able to place holds on it 01:53 oleonard http://search.myacpl.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=269398 01:53 rangi if you use lost or one of those statuses with authorised values to mark it on order 01:53 rangi then it cant have holds 01:53 rangi and you can place a hold on that? 01:53 oleonard Yes 01:54 rangi cos that not for loan field 01:54 rangi used to totally stop that 01:54 * oleonard double-checks how we set it up 01:55 oleonard If the NOT_LOAN authorised value has a negative value (in our this case, -1), it is available for holds 01:55 rgbv ahhh 01:55 rgbv let me test that :) 01:56 rangi cool, that didnt used to happen, it used to be if it was non zero it was blocked for everything, i must have missed that change 01:57 oleonard Yeah that was a pretty important feature for us to have 01:59 rgbv great, that works a charm, you've made my day ;) 01:59 oleonard Happy to have prevented an unnecessary template modification :) 02:00 * oleonard still thinks we could toss in some more spans and classes there for customization anyway 02:00 rangi yep 02:01 jcamins_away But note that -2 is a magic number. 02:02 oleonard ? 02:02 jcamins_away for NOT_LOAN. 02:02 jcamins_away -2 does something magical. 02:03 jcamins_away I don't remember what. 02:03 jcamins_away But I do remember that it will not work as you expect. 02:06 oleonard Hmmm... Allows holds, allows checkout. 02:07 * oleonard leaves again... can't do this late-night thing like the youngsters :P 02:07 rangi -2 doesnt feature in Circulation.pm 02:08 jcamins_away Lovely. The casting company has no idea when or where Shari is supposed to show up, but thinks it'll probably be in the morning. 02:09 rangi helpful 02:09 jcamins_away Especially if it's 6am out in Brooklyn. 02:10 mtompset casting company? Is your wife an aspiring actress? 02:10 jcamins_away mtompset: no, but she's been extra-ing. 02:10 mtompset Ah... cool. 02:11 * jcamins_away would not make a good extra. 02:11 * jcamins_away expects professionalism from everyone he works with. 02:12 jcamins_away Not knowing at 2200 hours if you they want you to leave for work at 0400 hours is something that only happens if you are dealing with *exceedingly* unprofessional individuals. 02:12 jcamins_away s/you they/they/ 02:18 mib_4v1tbr . 02:22 eythian http://i.imgur.com/CMOGT.jpg 02:23 eythian (it's apparently actually an ad for an e-book seller, but this'd be neat with free/pd/etc books) 02:23 rangi yep 02:26 jcamins_away , 02:27 * jcamins_away leaves again, having contributed to the conversation. 02:27 rangi heh 02:41 mtompset Cool link, eythian. 03:43 Brooke_ o/ 03:44 rangi hi Brooke_ 03:44 Brooke_ kia ora 03:47 eythian wow, you're on a jetstream connection. I didn't know they still existed. 03:48 mtompset jetstream connection? 03:48 mtompset Greetings, Brooke_ 03:49 eythian It was a DSL brand by the major ISP here back in the early-mid 2000's. 03:50 eythian Known for its blazing 128k down speeds and uncapped national traffic. 03:50 eythian Though that was a long time ago, I expect it's somewhat better now. 03:51 Brooke_ free interwebs ftw :D 04:33 wajasu just set up apt-cacher-ng on my archlinux. booted my debian vm and configured sources.list with my apt-cacher-ng and passthru. apt-get update, and apt-get install koha-common. its pulling... 04:33 rangi Hehe I saw that email coming 04:35 wajasu done. now to try another vm build but pulling from that apt cache to see if its faster than debian.koha-community.org 05:23 drojf cool, there is a live-cd fanbase 05:29 mtj hmm, the dselect thread is getting a little trolly 05:46 mtompset trolly? 05:48 mtompset mtj: How is the thread trolly? 05:48 mtompset I don't think there is anything terribly trolly. 05:49 mtompset drojf: They mostly seem to be in India. 05:50 mtompset Probably because of poor internet connectivity. 05:50 drojf from the reasoning it's more poor technical skills 05:52 mtompset But you don't gain technical skills unless you try. 05:53 mtompset Because of mtj's trolly comment, I decided against replying with why packages are better than a livecd. 05:54 magnuse kia ora #koha! 05:54 mtompset greetings, magnuse. 05:54 magnuse hiya mtompset 05:54 drojf that's right. but if you have an easy way that seems ok in a short term, you my stay with that for longer than you should instead of learning how it really works. that's one way to do it. 05:54 drojf hei magnuse 05:54 magnuse hi drojf 05:55 mtompset actually, though the maintainer of the named livecd still supports it. He doesn't release as often as Koha. 05:55 mtompset bug fixes slower = bad. :( 05:56 drojf 3.8.2. sounds great until they use fines 05:57 mtompset download livecd 600+MB vs. packages 40+MB ... bad. 05:57 mtompset (yes, the first time they do packages, there will be 400+MB libraries, but still) 05:59 mtompset livecd supprt (limited to issuer/users of livecd) vs. packages (a wider group of people)... less support = bad. 06:08 magnuse o/ 06:08 druthb Hi, magnuse. :) 06:10 druthb Since cait isn't here to tell me to go to bed... guess i don't have to. :P 06:11 magnuse get some sleep druthb :-) 06:11 rangi magnuse: https://i.chzbgr.com/completestore/12/9/28/EtwhtsrWEkil2nQm0Bb3XQ2.jpg 06:11 druthb @later tell cait :P 1 am and I'm still up.... 06:11 huginn druthb: The operation succeeded. 06:12 magnuse rangi: h**l yeah! 06:12 druthb Hi rangi. :) 06:12 magnuse that's a monument to commemorate some viking battle 06:14 magnuse http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sverd_i_fjell 06:15 rangi :) 06:25 drojf [off] i wonder if cait will like the fake flyer i made for that open end workshop… http://abunchofthings.net/koha/workshop_fake_flyer.png 06:26 magnuse hehe that sure looks like a cool ils! 06:27 drojf i thought that would appeal to norwegians! ;) 06:27 mtompset [off] drojf: pretty good, but why is koha and the lettering blurred? 06:28 mtompset [off] drojf: I like the blurring on the moon part to get the logo in. ;) 06:44 mtompset bonjour, laurence et paul_p. :) 06:46 paul_p bonjour mtompset 06:47 laurence bonjour mtompset 06:53 reiveune hello 06:53 wahanui niihau, reiveune 06:53 mtompset Greetings, reiveune. ;) 06:54 reiveune salut mtompset 06:54 mtompset Greetings, sturmtruppen. 06:54 * mtompset high fives reiveune. :) 06:56 sturmtruppen hi everyone 06:57 magnuse kia ora cait! 06:59 cait hi magnuse :) 06:59 cait hi matts :) 06:59 matts hi ! 07:00 druthb Hi cait. 07:00 * druthb hides 07:00 cait hm could have sworn I saw druthb 07:00 julian_m hello 07:01 druthb Hehe 07:01 cait hi julian_m 07:04 drojf [off] hey cait, look what i made ;) http://abunchofthings.net/koha/workshop_fake_flyer.png 07:05 cait at night... it's a bit spooky hehe 07:05 * magnuse finds extracting marc records from a 2.2.x database dump file harder than expected 07:06 drojf magnuse: importing did not work? 07:15 WaqarAzeem hi! someone know why Image is missing from patron page in v3.08. see here: http://i.imgur.com/l5oK6.png 07:15 francharb good morning #koha 07:22 mtompset Greetings, francharb. 07:22 mtompset Hmmm...

The non-technical users could coulse a Google Group to troubleshoot their misconfigured Zebra. 11:11 drojf [off] actually, it may really fix the whole livecd problem. for us. 11:11 mtompset jcamins: You're right he doesn't provide support. :( 11:12 mtompset We only have three paid support companies in India. 11:12 mtompset (on the list) 11:13 mtompset [off] How would that help them? It would seem like the blind leading the blind to me. 11:13 drojf mtompset: i suppose we also have a lot of libraries without money for that in india 11:14 jcamins [off] In Mary Poppins when they closed their eyes and clicked their heels together they fell into a sidewalk painting! 11:15 drojf ok the "workshop and testing" thing is blown… "I know many college libraries in Kerala with above 50000 records successfully running on Koha Live CD." 11:15 drojf i should propose that to my library, we have less records 11:15 mtompset That's my point, drojf. That's NOT supposed to be the case. 11:15 * jcamins has nothing against using livecds that *work* in production. 11:16 jcamins But 100% of my experience with livecds has been negative. 11:16 jcamins (Koha livecds) 11:16 drojf i never tried to use a livecd in production. i could make some for our workshop :) 11:17 drojf instead of doing an installation workshop ;) just hand out the livecd and send everyone home 11:18 jcamins drojf: if you do that, *you* are answering all their questions about Zebra. 11:19 drojf [off] i will, in my google group 11:19 mtompset Now drojf! Actually, if the LiveCD is like the Ubuntu LiveCD and let's you actually install a proper standard installation, that wouldn't be so bad... but this doesn't seem to be the case. 11:20 drojf if the livecd would destroy itself after two months and make you either get a newer one or install koha from deb packages, that wouldn't be so bad 11:21 mtompset Actually, if the livecd installed on your computer as if you installed from packages, that would be good. ;) 11:22 mtompset Do the install, throw the CD away... boot normally into Koha. :) 11:22 cait hi #koha 11:22 drojf it could just display the up to date "install with packages" wiki page 11:22 drojf until you follow that 11:22 mtompset Greetings, cait. 11:22 drojf hi cait :) 11:23 jcamins I wonder if it would be possible to do a install-to-desktop livecd using packages. 11:25 mtompset Hypothetically, it should be. 11:25 jcamins mtompset: reasonably, I mean. 11:28 tweetbot` [off] twitter: @kohails: "#kohails BibLibre contribue le module Drupal Opac en "full project" http://t.co/P84ymXFf" 11:29 mtompset When I return to Canada, buy my dream machine, and *if* I can find financial partners, this would be something I'd like to test. 11:30 jcamins mtompset: you should test it on your netbook. :P 11:30 mtompset Uh, no. :P 11:34 drojf [off] i have kindly crafted this flowchart http://abunchofthings.net/koha/flowchart.png 11:35 jcamins [off] Thank you. That clarifies things for me. 11:36 mtompset drojf++ # love the humour. 11:36 mtompset Did you just notice the +1 in the mailing list? 11:36 drojf mtompset: so you are volunteering to be future livecd manager? 11:36 drojf i noticed 11:37 drojf also i noticed it said nothing about using it in production 11:37 mtompset Are you volunteering to make donations on my behalf to Wycliffe Germany? ;) 11:38 drojf mtompset: as an atheist, no :P 11:39 mtompset I can respect that. 11:39 drojf :) 11:40 mtompset What do you mean it didn't say anything about using it in production...

I can post my de-duplication script to the wiki for anyone to use who already has upgraded and has duplicated fines. 18:12 rangi its not for that 18:12 rangi yes, that patch fixes it for people upgrade to 3.8.x 18:13 rangi from before 18:13 santy does anyone know if koha packages are being supported in any way by Canonical?

18:17 jcamins Right. 18:17 khall wajasu: if you just take my patch and turn it into a stand alone script, that's pretty much it, but I can find my original and post it. 18:17 Morthland Fixed. 18:18 santy During development and bugfixing, everything gets implemented, fixed and tested on Debian/Ubuntu first, and later on other distros, including Centos and Redhat? 18:18 jcamins No. 18:18 jcamins Most developers use Debian or Ubuntu. 18:19 jcamins A couple use other OSes. 18:19 jcamins Any platform-specific bugs are found on Debian or Ubuntu long before they're noticed anywhere else. 18:19 jcamins However, there are very few platform-specific bugs. 18:19 wajasu khall: ok. paste your orignal and i'll write script. 18:20 pastebot "wajasu" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "please review my test plan before i start for 8253" (26 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/214 18:20 khall I think i've found it 18:20 jcamins There are no RPMs available for Koha, and most people give up before they manage to get Koha working on CentOS or Redhat. 18:21 santy So, there is a chance that platform specific bugs that only affect Redhat for example simply won't get fixed over time 18:21 wajasu khall: check my test plan to see if i'm on the right track. 18:21 jcamins Right. 18:21 jcamins Indeed, I would say it is almost a certainty that Redhat-only bugs are not getting fixed by any current Koha developer. 18:22 khall wajasu: that looks like a great test plan 18:22 santy okay 18:23 wajasu ok 18:25 tweetbot` [off] twitter: @ByWaterSolution: "RSS Feed in Plain English http://t.co/osCWZn8b #kohails" 18:34 tweetbot` [off] twitter: @kohails: "#kohails RSS Feed in Plain English http://t.co/DoLACBS4" 18:35 rangi If it's in plain English its hardly rss anymore :) 18:35 koyauni drojf: I can not find this idzebra things 18:36 * oleonard loves everything about RSS except the fact that the best RSS reader comes with built-in spying 18:36 wizzyrea what's the best reader?

It would be possible to make one that installed the packages. The hard part is things that'll configure everything in a meaningful way. 21:45 jcamins eythian: yeah, but the current livecds don't do a good job of that either, and at least a livecd that installed Debian and the Koha packages would be vaguely supportable. 21:47 eythian yeah. Personally, I think energy is better spent making the regular configuration easier. 21:47 * jcamins agrees. 21:47 eythian Maybe I'll spend some time this week improving the debconf stuff. 21:48 eythian my current migration has a catalogue large enough that the import and rebuild takes an hour or two, giving me some downtime. 21:48 jcamins I was more going to suggest that the people who are so staunchly pro-livecd might create one that can be supported by those of us who answer questions. 21:48 jcamins eythian: ooh! What about enabling DOM and ICU in packages? :D 21:49 eythian that's different :) (and actually would be better after debconf so it can ask what you want by default, then you can use something like 'koha-enable-icu' or whatever to toggle it on an instance basis. 21:49 eythian ) 21:49 eythian I don't really know enough about DOM/ICU to do those. 21:49 eythian I should do some experimenting. 21:50 jcamins If you go through Makefile.PL and make, it will generate all the needed configuration files. 21:51 eythian well, I'd need to know how to switch it on a live system. 21:51 jcamins Rerun the installer... 21:51 eythian I'll pretend you didn't say that :) 21:52 jcamins No, actually, for ICU you just change a few lines in one file, if all the configuration files have been installed. 21:52 eythian yeah, that's what I thought. 21:54 jcamins All you change is etc/zebradb/etc/default.idx. 21:54 * cait nods 21:54 eythian yeah, that would be automatable. 21:54 cait not sure why it didn't work for koyauni 21:54 cait maybea missing file 21:54 jcamins cait: missing files. 21:54 eythian that's something else I'd like to implement: something that brings zebra up in debug mode so these problems are easier to see. 21:56 * jcamins thinks there should be a koha-shell command, too. 21:57 eythian that'd be easy enough. 21:57 jcamins Useful for if you want to run link_bibs_to_authorities or the like. 21:57 eythian yeah 21:58 jenkins_koha Starting build #193 for job Koha_3.8.x (previous build: SUCCESS) 21:59 wajasu mtj: ok bug 8253 is done. 21:59 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=8253 blocker, P1 - high, ---, kyle.m.hall, Signed Off , fix fine doubling, when upgrading from 3.6 to 3.8 22:02 mtj thanks wajasu++ 22:03 wajasu mtj: your welcome. 22:04 * wajasu needs a break 22:22 wajasu rangi: FYI in my notes for the 8253, http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=12667 i mention an ADD CONTRAINTS error. for 3.6.x to 3.8.x. just so you are aware. 22:24 rangi yep foreign key error 22:34 * rangi hopes no one answers the troll 22:35 jenkins_koha Project Koha_3.8.x build #193: SUCCESS in 37 min: http://jenkins.koha-community.org/job/Koha_3.8.x/193/ 22:35 jenkins_koha mtj: Bug 7589 - tinymce editor broken in .deb packages - in 'en' templates 22:35 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7589 blocker, P1 - high, ---, robin, Pushed to Stable , tinymce editor broken in .deb packages - in 'en' templates 23:31 * jcamins observes for the record that 380g of green beans are not very filling.
