It told me I couldn't edit the help. 06:50 mtompset I felt quite sad. :( -- Of course, there are a couple ways to give permissions, and I was wondering what the suggested way of doing it is. 06:50 mtompset clearly giving writing permissions to everyone is just wrong. 06:51 mtompset I was thinking of changing the group for the help files, and giving write permissions to the group. 06:53 mtompset I was thinking perhaps of changing the ownership of the help files.

Please try again! And remember, usernames and passwords are case sensitive." message 09:16 gerundio any ideas anyone? 09:25 drojf good day #koha 09:26 Herwig i had the same problem had to make a kohaadmin user before it workek sec i copy the text for you 09:31 Herwig gerundio here is my info (i am on ubuntu so maybe its not 100 percent the same but its a start) http://users.telenet.be/webwijzer/koha/kohapass.pdf the red remarks is what i did 09:39 mtompset So, Herwig... you did a tarball install? 09:39 mtompset Because you wouldn't have to do that if you were using packages. 09:40 mtompset gerundio: So your staff client works, but your OPAC doesn't? 09:41 mtompset (for logging in) 09:42 mtompset Because Herwig, I would recommend installing using packages. The latest and greatest Ubuntu instructions (with links to the Debian one which is considered canonical) is found at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_ubuntu_-_packages 10:14 Herwig ok my next installment i will do (sorry was away someone had a problem) 10:41 mtompset not a problem. I was just away too, Herwig. :) 10:41 gerundio Herwig, sorry I went away for a while 10:41 gerundio I just saw your answer to my problem 1 hour ago regarding LDAP 10:42 gerundio the URL you sent me deals with kohaadmin user 10:42 gerundio I don't have problems with that :) 10:55 gerundio kf, are your still around? 11:02 kf yes, but not sure I can help 11:02 kf I have never worked with ldap or other authentication systems 11:05 drojf hi kf :) 11:06 mtompset Greetings, drojf. 11:07 drojf hey mtompset 11:07 wahanui mtompset is disliking the silent warnings flooding his error logs. 11:07 mtompset That is very true in the last couple of days. 11:07 drojf heh 11:08 mtompset Some are easy to fix... other's ... will require thinking about the logic to make sure the patch is right. 11:08 gerundio ok kf, thanks anyway 11:09 gerundio I haven't found anyone here who's worked with LDAP auth 11:11 drojf gerundio: maybe try the mailinglist? 11:11 kf gerundio: there are people, probably only not here right nwo 11:11 kf the mailing list is a good idea 11:13 gerundio I've googled a lot and found some topics from the mailing lists 11:13 gerundio but not really helpful :| 11:14 kf you should mail the list yourself :) 11:31 drojf dear raspberry pi reseller, please confirm my order that i placed 11 hours ago. i'm not a man of patience. 11:32 gerundio I just read something disturbing in bywatersolutions facebook notes regarding LDAP auth: https://www.facebook.com/notes/bywater-solutions/how-ldap-connections-work-in-koha-34/10150321097398209 11:32 gerundio For auth-by-bind connections (include Microsoft Active Directory), you’ll need this information: Your patrons will need to be loaded from CSV using the Bulk Patron Import tool in Koha. Userid will need to be populated with the LDAP user login you wish them to use, but password can remain blank (or a default password can be added) 11:34 drojf what exactly is the disturbing part? 11:34 * drojf has no idea of LDAP 11:34 gerundio this means that I'll have to import the user records 1st in order do use LDAP with bind 11:34 gerundio for authentication 11:35 drojf i see 11:36 gerundio this doesn't make much sense 11:36 drojf one thing: that fb post is 13 months old. koha evolves all the time, it is not guaranteed that this information is still up-to-date. 11:37 gerundio well, I was able to login sucessfully using the "quick testing of the LDAP connection on the command line" 11:37 gerundio which created the borrower record in the DB 11:38 gerundio logging in the OPAC form works only after that record is created 11:38 gerundio if I try to login for the 1st time via OPAC the record is not created and I just get the login error message 11:38 gerundio got to go now, luch time 11:39 gerundio be back later to see if I can make something out of it 11:39 gerundio thanks anyway drojf 11:39 drojf does that sound like what you want? "For some ldap setups there is a different sequence for authentication that koha doesn't account for. The steps are: 1) Bind with a service account 2) Search for user entered 3) Bind as user if found" 11:40 drojf no i think its something different. sorry 12:09 drojf nickometer user110 12:09 wahanui 'user110' is 56% lame, drojf 12:09 drojf sorry, had to try it ;) 12:14 mtompset nickometer drojf 12:14 wahanui 'drojf' is 0% lame, mtompset 12:14 mtompset nickometer mtompset 12:14 wahanui 'mtompset' is 0% lame, mtompset 12:14 mtompset nickometer kf 12:14 wahanui 'kf' is 0% lame, mtompset 12:14 drojf nickometer Guest1966 12:14 wahanui 'Guest1966' is 34% lame, drojf 12:14 mtompset nickometer lame 12:14 wahanui 'lame' is 62% lame, mtompset 12:14 * mtompset laughs. 12:14 drojf lol 12:15 mtompset sorry, wahanui, but lame is 100% lame. 12:15 mtompset lame? 12:16 mtompset how did you know about the nickometer command, drojf?

At the very least elections must be less annoying. 13:06 mtompset I think it probably compares against l33t spelling? 13:08 paul_p oleonard = I don't think so. campaigns are still very boring here.

I am tempted to take down that patch to remove confusion 14:04 libsysguy I don't really have the setup to test it anymore 14:05 mtompset Why not finish the patch? ;) 14:05 mtompset Ah. 14:05 libsysguy I read your mind mtompset 14:05 libsysguy :p 14:05 mtompset Yes, yes you did. 14:06 mtompset This is the sort of thing I'd like to get set up when I get back to Canada... so many fun Koha related things to play with, but fiscal realities suck. :( 14:06 libsysguy indeed they do 14:07 gerundio I have the setup and can assist you guys 14:07 gerundio my problem know is that the DB record isn't being created upon the 1st login atempt in OPAC 14:08 gerundio if I use the "/path/to/files/opac/opac-user.pl userid=your_test_ID password=test_user_password > junk.txt" method to test the login 14:08 gerundio the record gets created 14:08 gerundio any idea why this might be happening? 14:09 libsysguy so you are saying with current master code its not working? 14:10 gerundio I patched the "/path/to/files/lib/C4/Auth_with_ldap.pm" perl module 14:10 gerundio so I could do that 3 step bind 14:11 libsysguy bind search bind? 14:11 gerundio on my terminal I can log in fine, on OPAC not really 14:11 gerundio yes, bind search bind 14:11 gerundio I don't see any errors in the logs 14:11 gerundio but maybe because they're not being thrown there 14:11 libsysguy hmm well the replicate function shouldn't be touched with any code to modify koha to do the 3 step bind 14:12 gerundio how can I increase the debug level to see what goes wrong with OPAC login? 14:12 gerundio I didn't touch it 14:12 libsysguy you can throw your own with "print STDERR 'some error';" 14:13 gerundio got to tell you, I'm not very handy with perl 14:13 libsysguy heh 14:13 gerundio but this last few days patching this file already got me into it :) 14:14 libsysguy so basically ignore the debug level in the Auth_with_ldap.pm file 14:14 libsysguy you won't get far 14:14 libsysguy i feel like that poor file has been ostracized by everyone 14:15 libsysguy im trying to think about the easiest way to get you what you need 14:17 libsysguy If you don't care about local changes I would just change the code in the else statement 14:17 libsysguy if you do you are going to have to modify my patch a bit 14:18 gerundio so, if I understood your patch correctly you added a 3rd auth method - a 2nd ldap bind method - right? 14:19 libsysguy correct 14:20 libsysguy it added that 3 step bind method 14:21 gerundio so you also added a new entry in the koha-conf.xml file, correct? 14:21 drojfx +1 for editing libsysguy's patch and giving back the changes to the community. will make your updates much easier and make you "that LDAP guy" for testing too ;) 14:21 gerundio "bind_with_service" 14:22 libsysguy correct 14:23 libsysguy and yes you can have the title of "that LDAP guy"... 14:23 gerundio lolol 14:23 gerundio not sure I can handle it 14:23 gerundio I'm just a middle man 14:23 libsysguy please…take it 14:23 libsysguy p 14:23 gerundio my knowledge of LDAP and Koha are very limited 14:24 gerundio I'll be happy to contribute the patch 14:24 libsysguy practice makes perfect hehe 14:24 gerundio :) 14:24 libsysguy if you want to test mine and see if it works I'd welcome it 14:24 oleonard "bind_with_service?" Sounds like something out of a S&M/LDAP crossover bestseller 14:25 libsysguy heh oleonard 14:25 libsysguy and now I can never think about ldap binds again 14:25 gerundio I was about to ask why "bind_with_service", but seems oleonard already shed some light on the subject :p 14:25 libsysguy without thinking about S&M lol 14:25 gerundio but why bind_with_service? 14:26 libsysguy well I wanted it to be bind with service account 14:26 libsysguy the first step in th3 3 step bind 14:26 gerundio ok 14:26 libsysguy but in hindsight 3StepBind might have been a better choice 14:26 libsysguy what can I say, I was young and experimenting 14:26 gerundio to revoke oleonard's argument we can call it "auth_by_bind_search_bind" :D 14:27 gerundio unless he can find some sort on S&M connection there too 14:27 libsysguy oleonard can find S&M in anything 14:27 libsysguy he is an active member of the community :p 14:28 libsysguy oops 14:28 libsysguy s/the/this/ 14:28 gerundio btw, from what I could figure out, this 3 step bind method 14:28 jcamins gerundio: sounds like an LDAP/Tolkien crossover. 14:28 gerundio use LDAP's DN (distinguishedName) for the bind 14:28 gerundio so we could call it auth_by_dn_bind 14:28 gerundio better? 14:29 libsysguy better 14:29 libsysguy if we did what the last comment suggested we could define whatever attrib we wanted 14:30 gerundio let me ask the LDAP guru around here :) 14:33 libsysguy here or there? 14:34 gerundio my LDAP guru :D 14:34 gerundio done and back 14:34 gerundio we just need to fix that auth_by_bind method there 14:34 gerundio we don't need to add auth_by_dn_bind... since the bind is always done via DN 14:35 gerundio the problem there is that whoever wrote that code assumed that DN = username 14:35 gerundio when in reality that doesn't occur 14:35 gerundio DN can be anything really, being LDAP a tree, the DN is simply the key to each tree node 14:36 gerundio which for some people can be the username, but for most people I'm guessing it's not 14:36 gerundio was my argument clear enough? 14:37 libsysguy yeah when I wrote that patch it was definitely for out ldap setup which was shotty at best 14:37 libsysguy so I would welcome you fixing it :) 14:40 rambutan [off] @seen cherry2000 14:40 rambutan [off]@seen cherry2000 14:41 libsysguy [off] rambutan speaks? 14:41 oleonard [off] rambutan, you lost your sex-bot? 14:41 rambutan just testing to see if regular commands work with "off" 14:41 drojfx [off] rambutan: you can probably do it in a /msg to the bot 14:43 rambutan you know, on this page: http://koha-community.org/faqs/zebra-indexing-wont-work-fix-it-aka-search-stuff-up-help/ 14:43 rambutan this command: sudo koha-rebuild-zebra -v –full `/usr/sbin/koha-list` 14:43 jcamins Hm. that should be two dashes, not an em dash. 14:44 rambutan may be causing people problems. I had my tech assistant working on setting up a backup server, and he wasn't getting the command right 14:44 * oleonard also hates it when Wordpress replaces regular double quotes with "smart quotes" in code snippets 14:44 rambutan I looked at it, and immediately knew, although it didn't appear so, that there was a double dash in front of "full", but even if you cut and paste from the web page 14:45 liw you could replace `...` with $(...) 14:45 * jcamins doesn't know how to edit that page. 14:45 rambutan into a text editor you may not get it--kate mangles it into something 14:45 jcamins liw: Wordpress is mangling the double dash, too. 14:45 rambutan and the "back tics" are not obvious either. I thing there was a chat discussion w/ wizzy way back in February about this. 14:46 rambutan anyway, I think it would be helpfult to add those comments to that page 14:46 liw jcamins, bad wordpress, bad, bad, bad :) 14:46 * liw is biased 14:46 libsysguy oleonard I have a quick question about addbiblio.tt 14:46 jcamins liw: run away, libsysguy. Run far away, and never return to addbiblio.tt. 14:46 jcamins Sorry, that was for libsysguy. 14:47 libsysguy heh 14:47 libsysguy I just want to sort the fields 14:47 gerundio libsysguy, I'll submit a revision to your patch 14:47 libsysguy sweet, thanks gerundio 14:47 * libsysguy washes hands of it :p 14:47 jcamins libsysguy: sort the fields? 14:47 gerundio how can I get a user account in the bug tracker? 14:48 libsysguy yeah so right now you can sort the subfields with the arrows 14:48 jcamins liw: I don't suppose you were involved with lxc at all? 14:48 libsysguy but if you have multiple say 600 fields 14:48 jcamins gerundio: just create a new account. 14:48 gerundio got it 14:48 libsysguy I might like to sort those too 14:48 jcamins libsysguy: good luck. 14:48 gerundio just saw it in the homepage 14:49 jcamins That is much needed, of course. 14:50 libsysguy b-b-but jcamins I wanted to use http://jqueryui.com/sortable/#connect-lists-through-tabs 14:50 libsysguy :p 14:51 jcamins libsysguy: I think using jqueryui would be a great idea. You'll need to start over from scratch, though. 14:51 jcamins The existing javascript is much too brittle. 14:51 oleonard libsysguy: If your question to me is, "Do you mind if I jump into a pit of snakes with not even Karen Allen to help me" of course the answer is yes. 14:52 libsysguy great... 14:52 libsysguy well my deadline is 3.12 14:52 * libsysguy cracks knuckles 14:53 jcamins You could start with chris_n's work. 14:53 gerundio libsysguy, quick question 14:53 libsysguy sure gerundio 14:53 libsysguy jcamins is that on github? 14:53 gerundio the "principal_name" setting in the koha-conf.xml should be changed 14:54 libsysguy that was there before my time 14:54 oleonard What is chris_n's work jcamins? 14:54 jcamins libsysguy: oleonard: https://github.com/cnighswonger/koha-wip/tree/marc_editor 14:54 gerundio it should be replaced with a new setting where we would define the search filter 14:54 libsysguy gerundio if you change that you could have a whole bunch of pissed off libraries 14:55 libsysguy okay but remember you have to preserve existing functionality 14:55 libsysguy so you'd have to write something to make the old stuff owrk 14:55 libsysguy work* 14:55 gerundio ok, thus my question :D 14:55 libsysguy or leave it 14:55 libsysguy ah 14:56 libsysguy so there is a nice catch tothis 14:56 libsysguy if you update the field in koha-conf.xml 14:56 gerundio even if the old stuff is not coded correctly? 14:56 gerundio this was developed under a wrong assumption 14:56 gerundio how can we correct that now? 14:57 libsysguy I would start by making the assumption that it is working 14:57 libsysguy and you would like to further generalize it 14:57 libsysguy rather than its not working and we should fix it 14:57 jcamins ^^ this is a good plan. Anything not backwards compatible will not be accepted. 14:57 libsysguy I know of several libraries that are using the LDAP code successfully 14:57 libsysguy unmodified 14:58 gerundio legacy code's a bitch :D 14:58 libsysguy heh indeed but we don't want to end up like ruby on rails 14:58 gerundio I bet they are, their DN must be something like uid@library.domain 14:59 jcamins libsysguy: I guess we know who is going to be QAing this code. :P 14:59 libsysguy heh yes the harshest QAA here 15:00 libsysguy so gerundio yes typically the DN is the same as the sAMAccountname 15:04 gerundio ok, so legacy code it is 15:04 gerundio I'll do it by adding 2 more settings to the koha-conf.xml file 15:04 gerundio "auth_by_dn_bind" and "filter" 15:05 jcamins paul_p: just FYI, caching and Plack don't work together. 15:05 paul_p jcamins really ? memcaching you mean ? 15:05 libsysguy gerundio are you moving principal_name to auth_by_dn_bind 15:05 jcamins Koha::Cache. 15:05 jcamins You had me change it to use environment variables. 15:06 gerundio libsysguy, no... I'm adding auth_by_dn_bind and filter 15:06 libsysguy okay just making sure 15:06 gerundio auth_by_bind and principal_name will still be there 15:06 paul_p yikes. What do you mean by "don't work" ? nasty error, or just no caching ? 15:06 jcamins paul_p: no caching at all. 15:06 jcamins At least, that's what it seems like to me. 15:06 gerundio so basically people will be using a combination of those 2 15:07 paul_p jcamins jcamins = that may explain why my tests show no measurable perf improvements... I concluded it was "because memcache is not about speed, it's about charge" 15:07 paul_p once again, it's 5PM here, and I haven't started to push a patch :(((( 15:07 jcamins paul_p: well, that's true, too. 15:08 paul_p same as yesterday, same as monday :( 15:08 * paul_p head to push patches... 15:09 jcamins paul_p: to summarize, though, using environment variables precludes persistent environments without a great deal of creativity. 15:09 jcamins So far as I can tell. 15:10 paul_p jcamins (not sure I've understood) 15:10 jcamins paul_p: as far as I can tell, since the environment variables weren't set when Plack was started, caching is disabled, permanently. 15:11 paul_p the plack.psgi can include them, isn't it ? 15:12 jcamins I am not sure. 15:12 jcamins Figuring that out is on my to-do list. 15:13 paul_p jcamins http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7844 could help ! 15:13 huginn 04Bug 7844: enhancement, P5 - low, ---, dpavlin, Needs Signoff , plack scripts for developers 15:14 jcamins Interesting.

I can't seem to access it... 23:24 eythian which koha demo? 23:24 santy_ but everything goes at the low level 23:24 YoungPublicLibrarian the Bywater Demo for Staff Interface 23:25 santy_ Is there another way to sync two Koha branches of different servers? 23:26 santy_ thanks jcamins, I'll let you know how it went 23:27 jcamins santy_: database replication. 23:27 eythian sync or merge? 23:27 YoungPublicLibrarian Hmm...all the other demos seem to be up and running... 23:27 santy_ but does db replication work on just a branch? 23:28 santy_ or is that global 23:28 santy_ like the whole-table replication mysql supports? 23:28 santy_ sync 23:30 santy_ the central Koha db will hold records from many branches, I would need to sync at the per branch level 23:30 jcamins That's not the way Koha was designed. 23:31 jcamins Use one Koha installation for all branches, if it's centralized, or use multiple Koha installations if it isn't. 23:32 jcamins Net::OpenSSH works, thank goodness. 23:47 santy_ ok, let say there are 3 gvt libraries. One of them, library A, has no ILS yet and would like to use Centralized Koha as their library mgmt system. Every record of library A would get the A-BRANCH name. Library B already has it's own Koha system running and would like to share their B-BRANCH records for them to be searchable in the centralized Koha, too. Their records would get the label B-BRANCH in the central Koha system. Library C has WINISIS, and they 23:47 santy_ would also like to share their records for them to be searchable in the central Koha system. Their records would get the label C-BRANCH in the central Koha. Library A would add and edit their records directly through central Kohas interface... no problem, Library B would sync its records somehow incrementally each time they are modified, added or deleted by some sort of daemon/webservice/syncmethod. Library C, would send their ISIS db everytime it gets 23:47 santy_ changed and a daemon would sync their records accordingly. Branches would have to be treated independently with one Koha database instance. Are you suggesting to create different Koha databases...? one per library/branch? Would central zebra still search among all Koha mysql instances? 23:50 pastebot "YoungPublicLibrarian" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "Fines and Fees" (6 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/233 23:50 YoungPublicLibrarian Anyone wanna give me a hand with that report. Just have some questions on it. 23:53 mtj santy_, just use one koha and one db, anything more is just fail 23:58 santy_ thanks mtj. Koha has so much functionality, I'd just like to be sure there isn't already a special Koha API function for branch synchronization before diving into my development.
