I then have to go back and delete the extra entry, otherwise it shows up on catalogue searches as having 'no items' which is confusing for people using the catalogue. When I add an item it duplicates too. When the network slows this problem happens. How can I stop duplication 11:46 cait do you double click by chance? 11:46 cait i think it might happen because of your network issues 11:47 cait not sure that can be sovled within koha 11:48 Racoo no dont click double 11:48 Racoo when the system is busy it creates dublications 11:48 Racoo both in biblios and holdings 11:49 Racoo it may be beause of zebra 11:49 Racoo indexing 11:49 wahanui hmmm... indexing is done by Zebra. 11:49 Racoo how can we solve it?? 11:50 Racoo it is a big problem 11:54 Racoo when the network is busy, it gives "Internal server error" but the biblio or the holding record is created, but sometimes 1 record sometimes 2 or more than 2 duplications are created. than we have to delete all the duplications, it is a huge lost time :( 11:57 csharp Racoo: sounds like you need a professional to come evaluate your network setup... there are ways to throttle bandwidth via free/open source programs like pfsense 11:58 csharp (but that's beyond the scope of #koha ;-)) 11:59 Racoo cant it be solved programaticaly 11:59 Racoo ? 12:00 csharp Racoo: a web-based program like koha needs a healthy network connection - no way around that 12:01 cait do you hit refresh? 12:02 cait it could be it sends the request again - and then that might cause the duplicate 12:02 cait zebra is unlikely, if the duplicate only existed in the index, you couldn#t delete it 12:02 csharp we see similar behavior in Evergreen when the network is congested and/or insufficient 12:04 Racoo When we hit the refresh button or press f5 it creates duplications, but without refreshing the page by hitting refresh button or press f5 unfortunately it again creates duplications. 12:05 cait Racoo: you mean that if you don't refresh or use the browser back button, there are still duplicates being created? 12:06 Racoo yes 12:06 Racoo this duplications especialy occur when the network is slow. 12:06 cait i am sorry, i think csharp is right then 12:06 cait there is not much you can do without fixing the network 12:07 francharb good morning! 12:07 cait hi francharb :) 12:07 francharb o/ cait 12:18 tcohen @wunder cordoba, argentina 12:18 huginn tcohen: The current temperature in Cordoba, Argentina is 8.0°C (9:00 AM ART on July 02, 2014).

22:42 wahanui bgkriegel is, like, on a signoff spree 22:42 bgkriegel well, as said earlier, need opinions/ideas 22:43 bgkriegel I'm for using xml, at last in frameworks 22:43 bgkriegel other files could be also 22:43 bgkriegel main reason is to ease translations 22:44 tcohen the idea is to use xml for generating the data 22:45 bgkriegel it will be useful if some want to comment on that bug 22:45 tcohen using XML has the advantage that the current translation tools like it 22:45 rangi id like to see it as a first step away from being MARC specific 22:45 rangi id like to move it to cataloguing frameworks 22:45 rangi which might be marc 22:46 rangi might be dc, might be whatever 22:46 tcohen interesting 22:46 wahanui hmmm... interesting is sometimes good and sometimes bad 22:46 rangi xml seems like a good step in that direction 22:46 wizzyrea ^^ 22:47 wizzyrea cataloguing_frameworks++ 22:47 rangi with that, plus elasticsearch .. we are moving away from 1968 :-) 22:47 tcohen rangi: if you have any idea on an XML model that should help going that direction, please step in :-D 22:47 tcohen hi wizzyrea 22:48 wizzyrea most of the metadata formats have dtds I thought... 22:49 tcohen the cataloguing interface needs to be rewritten to support that I guess 22:50 cait hm for the data i think yes, but not sure that's the same 22:50 cait we would have to add to it maybe, but use vor validation? 22:50 bgkriegel and what about rancor? 22:51 cait not sure what i say makes sense it's quite late here 22:51 rangi thats designed heavily for cataloguers (ie people who like MARC) i doubt we'd touch that 22:52 wizzyrea could probably take some cues from projects like greenstone 22:52 rangi just not locking us into only being able to represent marc fields would be the first step 22:54 tcohen rangi et al: do u plan to work on that regarding the ES integration efforts? 22:54 rangi not in this release cycle no 22:55 rangi well elasticsearch already lets us index anything, not just marc so nothing more needed there really 22:55 eythian_ Though a lot of the existing stuff it hooks into expects marc, but that's a solvable problem. 22:55 rangi just whatever we choose to represent our frameworks, it would be nice to not build in assumptions that it will always be MARC 22:55 rangi ie it doesnt have to support others yet, but just not make it harder to :) 22:56 tcohen DSpace uses an XML file to model the input form (cataloguing framework) 22:57 cait the change is also to make it easier translatable - i think maybe not try tomake it do everything now, but make afirst step? 22:57 wahanui okay, cait. 22:57 tcohen anyway, what bgkriegel want's to do for now, is abandoning the SQL files stored in the source tree, and move them to XML for better translation 22:57 rangi yep 22:58 tcohen we currently have one file for each language 22:58 tcohen ok, if anyone has any comment to do on that, approach bgkriegel 22:58 tcohen or comment on the bug (feedback is always welcome) 22:59 tcohen dcook for instance, proposed YAML instead 22:59 tcohen ok, moving on now, agreed?
