Time Nick Message
21:43 CJSHayward I'm observing behavior from MariaDB that I don't understand. As root, "mysql -uroot -p" prompts for a password and accepts any password. As an unprivileged user, no password I've tried is accepted. The database koha_library exists, but it's empty of tables.
20:38 cait LeeJ++
20:38 cait bye LeeJ
20:38 LeeJ_documenting cait: and now I'm out! take care all!
20:37 cait reading!
20:37 cait :)
20:37 LeeJ_documenting cait: merge requested!
20:32 LeeJ_documenting will have another 7 sysprefs to merge in about 2 minutes :)
20:32 cait i guess that's the moment then to wish you a nice weekend!
20:32 cait :)
20:32 LeeJ_documenting cait: okay! I'll be heading out momentarily but I'll hop on when I get home :)
20:31 cait LeeJ_documenting: working on the todo list a bit :)
20:26 cait probably could be refined a bit
20:26 cait there is also a workflow now on the wiki with using a local repo
20:25 cait hm ok
20:07 cait but anyway - using mariadb is necessary and will avoid other issus
20:06 cait i tihnk mysql has a problem with the date
20:06 huginn 04Bug 10459: minor, P5 - low, ---, m.de.rooy, RESOLVED FIXED, borrowers should have a timestamp
20:06 cait https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=10459#c55
20:05 cait i ofund some references to that kind of bug
20:05 CJSHayward Let me backtrack and try again. I thought I tried to install mariadb and it was already there, but I'm not getting an 'i' in aptitude search mariadb. I owe it to myself and you to try to nail that down first.
20:04 cait CJSHayward is the one installing on Mint, I think you gave it a try ealrier?
20:04 cait mtompset: still around?
20:04 cait i thought that should have fixed it
20:04 cait hm
20:03 CJSHayward Yes; I started by installing mariadb first
20:03 cait CJSHayward: did you install mariadb instad of mysql now?
20:02 liw koha++
20:02 liw cait++
20:02 CJSHayward I started over on a previously Koha-free VM and got a familiar error: http://paste.koha-community.org/477?tx=on&submit=Format+it%21
20:02 cait but i think it will be eaiser in a bit
20:02 liw LeeJ_documenting++
20:02 cait yeah still struggling there a little too
20:02 LeeJ_documenting cait: once I get the format down I can fly through tasks :)
20:01 cait alright :)
20:01 LeeJ_documenting cait: I think that might be a good idea because I'll probably be done with the sysprefs by tomorrow :)
20:01 cait shoud i start filling up the to do list some more? :)
20:01 cait ok!
20:00 LeeJ_documenting cait: you'll have a much larger merge coming your way in a few minutes :)
19:53 cait https://gitlab.com/koha-community-devs-users/kohadocs
19:52 cait yes
19:46 tcohen kohadocs?
19:44 cait it has all it needs
19:44 cait tcohen: check the notes on the startpage on gitlab
19:28 tcohen only python sphynx?
19:27 tcohen cait: what is needed for kohadocs on kohadevbox?
19:22 LeeJ_documenting mtompset all good!
19:22 mtompset LeeJ_documenting: Sorry, wasn't paying attention. Too busy with other things.
19:14 cait it was after LettersLog :)
19:14 cait yep :)
19:10 LeeJ_documenting yay for working devboxes! haha
19:09 cait ooh, looking like it's back alive
19:06 cait RenewalLog - is that appearing after issuelog or where?
19:06 cait as my kohadevbox is on strike
19:00 cait i tried it last night for the first time - it's nice
19:00 LeeJ_documenting that's cool
19:00 LeeJ_documenting huh
19:00 cait or make epub (very exciting)
18:59 cait and then run make html :)
18:59 cait install sphinx
18:59 LeeJ_documenting I have devbox myself :)
18:59 cait clone the rpeo
18:59 cait it's really quite easy
18:59 cait then you can test as much as you want :)
18:59 cait if you have a devbox or linux i recommend following the steps on the start page of the repo for adding your own repo
18:59 * LeeJ_documenting slinks away to work more
18:58 cait [off] :)
18:58 LeeJ_documenting [off] cait: it's so beautiful :')
18:57 cait [off] http://librarygeekgirl.de/pics/Selection_003.png
18:55 LeeJ_documenting this will probably be the rest of my night after work! haha
18:55 LeeJ_documenting nice :)
18:54 cait looking good
18:54 LeeJ_documenting I believe the last time I had that problem I halted then upped and it worked
18:53 cait hm still trouble with the kohadevbox :(
18:52 LeeJ_documenting okay
18:51 cait will chekc in a moment
18:51 LeeJ_documenting how does it look?
18:51 LeeJ_documenting yay!
18:50 cait merging now :)
18:48 LeeJ_documenting mtompset may suggest otherwise
18:48 LeeJ_documenting might have to run a provision perhaps
18:47 LeeJ_documenting I'd say do the merge since it's already submitted and I'll just include it
18:47 cait the configured ("config.vm.boot_timeout" value) time period.
18:47 cait Vagrant was unable to communicate with the guest machine within
18:47 cait Timed out while waiting for the machine to boot. This means that
18:47 cait my kohadevbox is not ocming up
18:47 cait has someone seen this before?
18:47 cait do you want to add it right away? or have me merge it first?
18:47 cait ok
18:46 LeeJ_documenting cait: just realized I left extra spacing before the section..but I can clean that up on the next request :)
18:42 LeeJ_documenting cait: merge request sent :)
18:41 LeeJ_documenting let me know if you need help testing and I'll do what I can :)
18:40 cait will see if that makes sense/works soon i hope :)
18:39 cait so just trying to do it with a push to your branch and then the web interface for now
18:39 cait it seems you might have to use an extra tool to make it possible to create a merge request from command line
18:39 LeeJ_documenting I love poking around with stuff so I'm curious how that would work :)
18:37 cait i am trying to figure out a workflow using command line... not sure how far i will get
18:37 cait wow! cool
18:37 LeeJ_documenting cait: almost done with the article requests sysprefs :)
18:36 LeeJ_documenting rangi++ for being a force of nature :D
18:36 LeeJ_documenting what HASN'T rangi done?!
18:31 cait rangi++
18:31 cait rangi##
18:31 cait i am just trying to write everything down
18:30 cait rangi came up with most of it, including the giltlab workflow
18:30 cait but you can run stuff by here always of course :)
18:30 LeeJ_documenting close enough! :D
18:30 cait nah not really :)
18:30 LeeJ_documenting cait: okay! I just like to run stuff by you because you're the boss :) haha
18:29 cait LeeJ_documenting: please feel free to change/fix the wiki page too when you want to add something
18:27 cait not sure what else to add right now
18:27 cait so yep, like the idea
18:27 cait like use geneder neutral pronouns, capitalization
18:27 cait i have tried to add some sections to the wiki page
18:27 cait i don't have a complete overview yet (wonder if i will ever)
18:26 cait i am not sure if there is somehtin gin the manual about it
18:26 LeeJ_documenting cait: suggestion..perhaps we should consider creating a "Documentation on how to document" (i.e. a style guide) in the future so everyone can follow the same format. Unless something like that is already made which would make me oblivious :)
18:18 cait not sure if command line gitlab merge is possible... have to research
18:18 cait or at least try to
18:18 cait and also close all the gaps
18:18 cait yep
18:18 talljoy i excited to get more eyes on it. more voices too
18:17 cait talljoy: will try to figure out a command line base dworkflow too for those who prefer that
18:16 cait come and grab some! we are going to run out soon!
18:16 cait this week's menu is updating system preferences
18:16 cait hehe yes, there is a taiga task too and the framamad with ideas about what needs updating
18:16 talljoy offer cookies!
18:16 cait have to lure them in
18:16 cait it's supposed to sound easy :P
18:16 LeeJ_documenting cait: don't forget to mention about that kanban page with the framapad! ;)
18:16 talljoy i'm happy to find something to update and test it out.
18:15 talljoy very nice. your gitlab steps sound so easy. i'm sure i made it way more complicated when i did it. heh
18:12 cait (the instructions) but the manual too
18:12 cait talljoy: i know we are still missing stuff, but hope to grow it
18:10 talljoy ha
18:10 LeeJ talljoy vroom vroom! :D
18:10 talljoy i can test drive!
18:09 cait looking for feedback and 'test drivers'
18:09 cait talljoy: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Editing_the_Koha_Manual i wrote up some instructions here
18:09 eythian mtompset: not related at all, except it was a very convenient way to install one and hook it up to my backup system in a way that I can reproduce.
18:09 talljoy i have done some. i had been trying to get the gitlab thing working
18:08 cait someone mentioned you might be interested in manual writing :)
18:06 talljoy what's up?
18:05 talljoy yup
18:05 cait talljoy: around?
18:05 cait LeeJ: gogogo :)
18:05 mtompset eythian: nextcloud server? Not related to Koha? Or would this be related to kohadevbox issue 200?
18:04 cait LeeJ: I was thiking about writing the name - but both is fine with me!
18:00 eythian A good portion of which was the semi manual process of sorting out letsencrypt. The other was the playbook not supporting stretch until I figured how to fix and upstream that.
17:59 eythian Building from scratch a new nextcloud server with web and db hooked up was about an hour or so.
17:58 * eythian has started appreciating ansible playbooks more and more for deploying complex software.
17:56 mtompset Because Xenial doesn't install an MTA by default either.
17:56 mtompset Need to add in comment about installing MTA and perhaps a wiki page that points to https://wiki.debian.org/GmailAndExim4 and https://myaccount.google.com/apppasswords
17:54 mtompset https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_ubuntu_-_packages
17:54 mtompset Nope... ubuntu packages?
17:54 wahanui packages is at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian
17:54 mtompset packages?
17:53 LeeJ mtompset link?
17:53 mtompset Had to follow the instructions closely to make sure others could succeed.
17:52 mtompset That was my first attempt at it with lynx.
17:50 oleonard Excellent
17:49 mtompset Wow! Onboarding worked nicely in lynx, oleonard!
17:43 LeeJ cait: perhaps on the framapad it might be a good idea for us to mark next to the syspref something like (in progress) while we work on it so that we don't dupe efforts?
17:41 LeeJ_bbs cait: since there aren't many bugs I can really work on currently (can't work on ES bugs until the repo gets fixed) I think I'll take a week or so and hammer out some documentation
17:40 LeeJ_bbs [off] I'm thankful my skillset is like a Swiss Army Knife so I can fill in where I'm needed most :)
17:35 mtompset Doing a test run first.
17:35 mtompset tweaking.
17:35 mtompset cait: not to mention, I'm tweaked the Ubuntu instructions right now so people install mariadb.
17:28 mtompset Sadly, as a programmer, I can assure you my documentation skills are not the calibre that is needed.
17:28 cait i have lots of sysprefs to document heh
17:27 cait mtompset: do you want to hav ea go at manual writing? :)
17:26 mtompset cait: True! :)
17:25 cait we can work on the documentation part :)
17:21 mtompset LeeJ_bbs: syspref everything! ;) I agree... LOTS of system preferences, and frequently they interact and sometimes the interaction isn't always documented well.
17:15 * LeeJ gets intimidated sometimes with the number of sysprefs available
17:15 LeeJ the more you know haha
17:15 LeeJ oooh
17:15 cait for performance reasons
17:15 cait that decides if it's done on checkout or should be scheduled by a cronjob
17:15 cait there is apref
17:13 LeeJ oleonard I think I figured out the totalissues mystery..it appears that /misc/cronjobs/update_totalissues.pl is a manual cronjob..it appears this is what populates that biblioitems.totalissues value :)
17:11 cait :)
17:09 LeeJ :D
17:09 cait *high five*
17:07 * LeeJ high fives cait
17:07 LeeJ we got this!
17:07 cait was not sure when nengard stopped
17:06 cait so we might not be missing as many as i thought initially, that's good too
17:06 cait thx!
17:06 LeeJ well..started to mark :P
17:06 LeeJ cait: I took the liberty of marking "(added)" next to each syspref in the framapad to indicate which prefs in the list are already on master
17:04 cait thx for the support liw!
17:04 cait sounds awesome!
17:03 liw I recomment manual writing to everyone. It's how I got rich and famous. </motivational-speech>
17:03 LeeJ [off] cait: I have to babysit my niece all weekend so I might hop on and hammer out some commits :)
17:01 LeeJ [off] that's so cool seeing changes like that...I love the way it prints out :)
17:01 cait so who else wants to do some manual writing? :)
17:01 LeeJ [off] aww...that didn't work :P haha
17:01 cait [off] level up!
17:00 LeeJ [off] /me 's Koha level increased by 1
17:00 cait [off] the yellow is just the highlighting from my search
17:00 LeeJ [off] cait: oooh
16:58 LeeJ oleonard: so apparently there's a totalissues cron job?
16:58 cait [off] http://librarygeekgirl.de/pics/Selection_002.png < LeeJ
16:57 LeeJ I wonder why totalissues isn't accurate though...
16:54 oleonard That'd work if I could also get a count of the grouped titles and a count of their items
16:52 LeeJ if my thinking is correct, that should group nicely
16:51 LeeJ meant to say "GROUP BY biblio.title"
16:51 LeeJ haha my bad..I got my lines mixed up!
16:50 oleonard That's not the order we need
16:49 LeeJ oleonard your report looks good to me but can I make a suggestion for readability? It might be useful to add "ORDER BY count DESC" to group everything nicely :)
16:47 cait but my screenshot upload thing is broken... have to fix that first
16:47 cait hm wanted to send you a screenshot of your addition in the generated entry
16:47 cait [off] so i found the perfect 'template' ;)
16:46 LeeJ [off] cait: haha well I actually write documentation regularly here at work! I'm responsible for a complex machine here in the library so I have to translate technical documentation to laymens for the librarians to follow the workflow so I'm used to writing technical documentation :)
16:44 cait i could use 20 more manual writers :)
16:43 cait can we clone you? heh
16:43 cait :)
16:41 LeeJ happy to be around and be involved :)
16:40 cait but i hope we can get things moving and we will keep adding to it
16:40 cait I am still learning myself about the manual process
16:40 cait happy to have you around :)
16:39 LeeJ cait: my pleasure! I love to learn :)
16:39 cait thx for test driving :)
16:39 cait didn't do much really
16:39 LeeJ cait++ for being an awesome documentation teacher :)
16:38 cait my favourite person today - LeeJ :D
16:38 * LeeJ waves to cait
16:38 * cait waves
16:36 pastebot "oleonard" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "Authors and titles by collection code" (6 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/476
16:33 LeeJ oleonard I was working on a report against the statistics table that might work if your solution doesn't
16:32 * oleonard got something which seems to work
16:27 LeeJ oleonard I'll try something and see if it works
16:27 LeeJ hmm...
16:23 oleonard Given a report which returns a list of items, is there an efficient way to include a total issue count for each item? Without crushing MySQL?
16:21 oleonard Hm I guess not in our case, at least, since it's empty for all our records
16:17 oleonard Is biblioitems.totalissues considered to be accurate?
15:46 mtompset no lynx necessary, did web install in firefox
15:45 mtompset use firefox on the mintbox.
15:45 mtompset tweak the hosts file as described.
15:45 mtompset no port configuration
15:45 mtompset no mysql server tweak.
15:44 mtompset obviously ignore the mysql-server step.
15:44 mtompset Basically just followed https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_ubuntu_-_packages
15:44 mtompset ubuntu install?
15:44 mtompset ubuntu package instructions?
15:43 wahanui ubuntu instructions are at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Ubuntu
15:43 mtompset ubuntu instructions?
15:43 mtompset Key steps being install and configure the mailer (exim4) and mariadb-server BEFORE installing koha-common.
15:42 LeeJ_lunch nice!
15:42 mtompset I successfully installed Koha on Linux Mint 18.
15:41 mtompset Just when I was going to tell him how he installed it wrong.
15:41 mtompset Oh shucks!
15:32 tcohen ok <.<
15:32 mtompset I'll let you try to tweak it nicer, so you understand and/or improve it. :)
15:32 mtompset can't remember what exactly.
15:32 mtompset there was a ordering issue.
15:31 mtompset because if the install fails, the install as a whole fails.
15:31 mtompset can't.
15:31 mtompset feel free to tweak it cleaner.
15:31 tcohen so you need to move the apt install ansible outside the if
15:31 mtompset feel to tweak it cleaner.
15:31 mtompset Right
15:31 tcohen exactly
15:30 tcohen i assume you are adding that only because stretch contains a new enough ansible
15:30 mtompset I'm not familiar with ansible. The idea was install the default repo version and upgrade it if it is too low.
15:30 tcohen if (available ansible < 2.1) { add special repo } ; install ansible
15:29 tcohen so it should be like
15:29 tcohen you want to make adding the repo conditional to currently available
15:29 tcohen is that it looks like
15:29 tcohen mtompset, what I meant about the if
15:27 mtompset and yes, I don't like the if myself either, but I wanted something that worked.
15:27 mtompset tcohen: I agree it will eventually get fixed, but even once fixed, the patch shouldn't break.
15:25 CJSHayward How do you set MariaDB's permissions so an unprivileged e.g "mysql -uroot -p" will work with the password set with SET PASSWORD?
15:24 tcohen but overall, it looks good to me
15:24 tcohen and the problem with JSON::Validator should be fixed by pushing the OpenAPI bug
15:24 tcohen I don't like the IF [ANSIBLE > 2.1] { something } else { nothing }
15:23 tcohen will try in a couple hours at home
15:23 tcohen I didn't manage to test your PR because of debian's local mirror issues
15:23 tcohen heading to the doctor
15:23 mtompset You still around?
15:22 huginn mtompset: tcohen was last seen in #koha 2 hours, 2 minutes, and 37 seconds ago: <tcohen> morning
15:22 mtompset @seen tcohen
15:10 cait bbl
15:10 cait LeeJ++ thx a lot!
15:09 reiveune bye
15:04 mtompset Meeting done.
15:01 cait once you get it down it should be a quick process
15:01 cait yep all happens automatically
14:56 LeeJ_testing answered my own question :)
14:53 LeeJ_testing so will the merge request close automatically when it's done?
14:52 cait it's still merging, but looking good
14:52 cait it's pretty cool
14:52 cait but if you want to see you can followthe instructions on the gitlab start page for the project
14:52 LeeJ_testing no worries!
14:52 cait it will not show up in the manual immedaitely
14:51 LeeJ_testing yay!!
14:51 cait merging
14:51 cait reads well!
14:51 LeeJ_testing I only added one syspref to make sure I had the procedure right before working on larger ones :)
14:50 LeeJ_testing yayyy!!!
14:50 cait just taking a look at your change now
14:50 cait ready to be merged... good sign!
14:50 cait ok one sec
14:49 LeeJ_testing cait: requested!
14:47 LeeJ_testing cait: I am now :)
14:46 cait before you startt editing
14:45 cait make sure that the branch on top is master
14:45 cait when you are here https://gitlab.com/koha-community-devs-users/kohadocs
14:45 cait hm sorry, let me check something
14:45 LeeJ_testing cait: starting from scratch then :)
14:45 cait looks better now but still says tehre is a merge conflict
14:44 cait @ldjamison changed target branch from manual16.11.x to master less than a minute ago
14:44 cait or not sure...
14:44 cait i think another mistake i am sorry
14:44 cait ok
14:44 cait aaah
14:44 cait seeing it!
14:43 cait ok
14:43 LeeJ_testing cait: okay! Let's try this again! LOL
14:32 cait it should preselect that, so you should not have to change anything
14:32 cait yes master
14:32 LeeJ_testing cait: I think I answered my own question..since it clearly lists in the wiki that 17.05 and back are a different format :)
14:28 LeeJ_testing so just so I'm sure to understand it correctly, my merge should have been to the master branch as the target yes?
14:25 drojf have a nice weekend #koha
14:25 cait should note to leave master on the notes
14:25 LeeJ_testing cait: nevermind! Found it! when you're on the page for the merge request, clicking "Edit" lets you change the target
14:25 cait sorry!
14:24 LeeJ_testing cait: can't seem to find where it allows me to change it in the merge request..I'll just close the request and start over...I copied my change to Notepad anyway :)
14:23 LeeJ_testing sure..I'll poke around
14:23 cait i am not seeing how to do it right now in the gitlab interface
14:23 cait can you try if you can change it from your side?
14:23 LeeJ_testing that would definitely be a problem! haha
14:22 LeeJ_testing whoops!
14:22 LeeJ_testing ooooh
14:22 cait where it shoudl say master
14:22 cait it says manual16.11.x for me
14:22 cait we are putting everything in master now
14:21 LeeJ_testing I believed I did..
14:21 cait hm let me see if we can try again
14:21 cait you want to leave master
14:21 LeeJ_testing cait: I was following the framapad and it says that the syspref was added in 16.11..so that's what I tried to do :(
14:19 cait not changing the right branch
14:19 cait you switched to 16.11 i think
14:19 cait oh
14:19 LeeJ_testing cait: I think I made an oopsie..got an email that my pipeline has failed
14:17 CJSHayward I'm having a MariaDB difficulty. "mysql -uroot -p" as root works with any password. No password is accepted, even after I tried to set one specific password, from the command line. What can I do so "mysql -uroot -p" will work with the set password from the command line?
14:15 LeeJ_testing cait: I'm excited!
14:15 LeeJ_testing drojf: I heard about that before!
14:15 cait will check in a moment!
14:15 LeeJ_testing cait: merge request submittied! Hopefully I did it right!
14:13 oleonard Cha-ching!
14:12 drojf https://stackoverflow.blog/2017/06/15/developers-use-spaces-make-money-use-tabs/
14:12 cait yay :)
14:12 LeeJ_testing cait: okay! I'm about to commit my first change! :)
14:09 oleonard Because after all we're not cave people.
14:09 cait i'd stick with spaces
14:09 cait i don't know
14:09 cait hm good question
14:09 LeeJ_testing cait: does spacing vs. tabs matter?
14:00 CJSHayward Hello; I wanted to give an update. I've replaced my MySQL installation with MariaDB, and have an unaltered database <config> section (besides changing the username and password). It's reporting denied access: but I can log in to the command line server with "mysql -uroot -p" without incident.
13:59 pastebot "CJSHayward" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "Permissioning error after migrating to MariaDB" (6 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/475
13:58 LeeJ I figured..just wanted to check! :)
13:57 cait totally different format
13:57 cait not right now now
13:56 LeeJ cait: am I correct that changes won't carry over from say 16.11 to 17.05's documentation?
13:56 wahanui Look at me! I'm a bot! Beep beep! Boop boop!
13:56 eythian wahanui: be wahanui
13:55 LeeJ cait: mhm! Trying some documentation..had to find prefs that weren't already included! :)
13:54 cait LeeJ: still alive?
13:46 mtompset oooo.... 49 seconds.
13:45 oleonard If wahanui could tell us something about himself would that make him sentient?
13:45 mtompset eythian: You didn't programme the bot to say it isn't a kidnapper? ;)
13:45 mtompset wahanui is?
13:45 wahanui yes, mtompset?
13:45 mtompset wahanui?
13:43 * oleonard remains suspicious
13:43 eythian wahanui is not a kidnapper, oleonard.
13:42 oleonard You sure don't.
13:42 wahanui oleonard, I didn't have anything matching your family
13:42 oleonard wahanui: Forget your family
13:42 cait but ... not sure if that is ethically correct :)
13:42 cait you could make wahanui forget with forget <keyword>
13:41 cait LeeJ: it's trained to do that
13:40 oleonard cait: wahanui said a thing
13:38 cait what happened?
13:37 LeeJ why does that do that every time...I can't help I use that word often lol
13:37 wahanui i think interesting is sometimes good and sometimes bad
13:37 LeeJ interesting!
13:36 cait (noticed yesterday)
13:36 cait but haven't looked inside yet :)
13:36 cait i noticed there actually is a chapter about contributing to it
13:36 cait might be good for the manual later
13:36 cait ah, just multiple screens
13:35 cait it might be, just not sure where we can store it
13:35 LeeJ cait: like this! https://gyazo.com/f4468294356c2c78b8ae5dcec413efc3
13:35 LeeJ cait: if you want, I can screen capture for everything if it would be helpful
13:34 LeeJ aye aye
13:34 * LeeJ salutes
13:34 cait :)
13:34 cait Fork!
13:34 LeeJ cait: https://gyazo.com/286fa7bba9b48aeb49bb22838a3681e1
13:32 LeeJ certainly!
13:32 LeeJ just need to reinstall gyazo :)
13:32 cait you want a fork, but I want to upate the wiki so it's more clear
13:31 cait it did only look like that the first time and then I couldn't get back there
13:31 LeeJ sure..one moment :)
13:31 cait hm can you screenshot?
13:31 LeeJ cait: when I clicked Edit it said "You're not allowed to edit files in this project directly. Please fork this project, make your changes there, and submit a merge request." Is this correct and I should make a fork?
13:30 cait also if you spot mistakes on the wiki page etc
13:29 mtompset cait: Had that last night here.
13:29 cait i can merge your change, just let me know - or if there are any questions
13:29 cait LeeJ: thiking the same :)
13:29 cait eythian: i'd like a good thunderstorm here....
13:28 oleonard Okay so we have a little bit of weather here: http://zivotdesign.com/p/#s/14982244930133
13:28 LeeJ cait: so this looks like it's going to be fun once I get used to the syntax and workflow
13:27 eythian cait: we had it come straight through. We stood at the window watching lightning bolts come down and shake the windows.
13:27 LeeJ mtompset oooooh sounds like an exciting day :)
13:27 mtompset Glad I have torrent download link, LeeJ. Mint 18 had issues,and I had to restart the torrent download... :)
13:27 eythian mtompset: yeah, in NZ I was used to it being 18°. Now I'm feeling chilly if I have my heating set below 22.
13:26 cait eythian: north of germany got a lot of thunderstorms... but none here
13:26 mtompset Climate change! ;)
13:26 mtompset I find it funny. I remember when room temperature was 20, and now it is supposedly 22.
13:25 LeeJ some would consider that even worse haha
13:25 LeeJ eythian: nope! USA haha
13:25 * eythian assumes LeeJ is in Belize.
13:23 * LeeJ will be able to do Farenheit to Celsius conversions in his head someday..
13:23 eythian cait: it's a balmy 20° here. I think it's still recovering after yesterday's massive thunderstorm.
13:22 mtompset Greetings, tcohen
13:22 magnuse have a nice weekend, #koha!
13:22 mtompset [off] LeeJ sweet!
13:20 * LeeJ waves to tcohen
13:20 tcohen morning
13:18 LeeJ [off] must have been all those svchost processes mooching off my connection :P
13:18 LeeJ [off] mtompset: so after I finished re-installing Windows on the work desktop yesterday now I'm at 15ms ping and 9 Mbps download AND upload :)
13:16 * mtompset wishes he had a faster internet connection.
13:16 LeeJ cait: looking through the gitlab now :)
13:16 * mtompset shouts, "Johnny 5 is alive!"
13:16 oleonard In the realm of no weather temperature has no meaning. Your skin crawls with the craving for input
13:16 * LeeJ bows to oleonard as he sits on his curly bracket-shaped throne
13:15 mtompset featureless voids have no temperature. :P
13:15 mtompset -- thinks I need more caffeine.
13:15 LeeJ mtompset but that's the world that oleonard lives in all the time isn't it?
13:14 mtompset 23 is the perfect temperature.
13:14 mtompset That's still too hot for my likely.
13:14 LeeJ it's pleasant here for the first time in a few days..been mostly around 26-32ËšC this week (I converted it to celsius to be metric-friendly :)
13:13 mtompset oleonard: I'm sorry you have been sucked into the realm of pixels, where only CSS rules supreme. ;)
13:12 oleonard When I look at the sky I see a featureless void that is neither light nor dark
13:12 mtompset drojf: Does that mean it is both hot and cold until we actually observe it? ;)
13:12 drojf there is no weather without a weather bot
13:11 cait 32 °C
13:11 cait if the weather tool would still work... i could show you all that it's really too hot to think here...
13:08 cait :)
13:08 LeeJ [off] will make for some great inside jokes in the future though
13:08 cait [off] that comment from me is going to look odd in the logs...
13:07 LeeJ [off] cait: yes usually..or some sort of patronage
13:07 cait hehe
13:07 cait should have used [off]
13:07 cait superpowers?
13:07 cait don't they all have a main 'topic'?
13:07 * cait wonders what kind of deity she is
13:06 mtompset [off] because people think we are IRC Koha dieties with instant answers. :(
13:05 LeeJ [off] you are correct
13:05 oleonard [off] So far what I see is someone asks a question, takes 5-10 minutes to respond to questions, and then leaves
13:04 LeeJ we were talking about 18836
13:04 LeeJ you're not missing much lol
13:04 * LeeJ waves to oleonard
13:03 * oleonard hasn't kept up with the entire conversation
13:03 LeeJ I see that KohaCon's Hackfest went well last night..quite a few sign offs and such :)
13:03 mtompset But oleonard -- He's running Virtual Box. Hardware compatibility isn't an issue.
13:03 oleonard (not relevant if we're talking about a Koha server running Mint of course)
13:02 oleonard Ubuntu's inclusion of non-free stuff solves a lot of hardware compatibility problems, significant if people are talking about, for instance, laptops for development
13:02 mtompset But I have an idea.
13:02 mtompset Probably.
13:01 drojf well, kind of :P
13:01 mtompset (from what he seems to say)
13:01 drojf problem solved
13:01 mtompset It does.
13:01 drojf mint probably has mysql 5.7
13:01 mtompset It's less likely to fail, and only frowned on because a server shouldn't be running a GUI.
13:01 LeeJ amateurs lol
13:01 mtompset I don't get why people aren't using Debian and then choosing a GUI.
13:01 LeeJ mtompset: stuff like that is not hard to find :)
13:00 mtompset LeeJ: You have to try the stupid stuff people do to see why it is stupid.
13:00 LeeJ mtompset: I'm not surprised you considered it a challenge haha
12:59 mtompset BTW, he hadn't mentioned Mint 18 yesterday.
12:59 * mtompset starts up a torrent download of Mint 18.
12:57 cait ruling out it's a but, we can suggest t move onto the mailing list
12:56 LeeJ nor have I
12:56 mtompset I've never tried a Mint install.
12:56 mtompset Mint 18?!
12:55 mtompset Ah, the one I didn't want to get sucked into for free. :)
12:53 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=18836 normal, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , Patron login is erroring out after failing to find table
12:53 cait bug 18836
12:51 cait looking
12:51 mtompset bug number?
12:51 cait if you know what's wrong - maybe comment?
12:51 cait s
12:51 cait there is an open bug about his intallation problem
12:51 mtompset Why do you think I visit the koha on ubuntu packages page each release?
12:50 LeeJ they are unfortunately of the "set it and forget it" mentality
12:50 mtompset And then users try really dumb stuff.
12:50 mtompset They NEVER update.
12:50 mtompset This is why I do not like blogs with instructions.
12:50 LeeJ but of course! :P
12:49 mtompset But they found some google instruction on how to do it, and it doesn't work. :P
12:49 LeeJ O.O
12:49 mtompset no no.. worse, trying to do a 17.05 tarball install on Ubuntu 12.04 ;)
12:49 mtompset no no.. worse, trying to do a 17.05 install on Ubuntu 12.04 ;)
12:49 * LeeJ cringes at the thought of tarball
12:48 mtompset No no... wackying is trying to do a tarball installation under Debian.
12:48 LeeJ mtompset: this was the log from trying to install on Mint http://paste.koha-community.org/474 it's unusual
12:48 magnuse "Normal stupid stuff libraries would do" = marc, sip2, z39.50, iso2709 = wacky
12:47 mtompset and if there's a failure, then you might end up with the db still existing, the user still existing, etc.
12:47 LeeJ mtompset: CSJHayward had been in here and asked about it. Actually I think you would find one of his tests interesting
12:47 mtompset Not creative... Normal stupid stuff libraries would do.
12:46 LeeJ mtompset: perhaps not wacky..just creative :)
12:46 mtompset It leaves all those /var/lock log lib ... koha directories lying around sometimes.
12:46 LeeJ mtompset: I figured if anyone would have tried wacky scenarios it would be you :)
12:46 magnuse got it :-)
12:45 LeeJ magnuse: well there's your answer on the purge command :)
12:45 cait unless it's really totally clear what it oes :)
12:45 mtompset LeeJ: Nope. Not going to try, because -- I know it fails. :)
12:45 LeeJ cait: okay! I'm excited because I've been curious about the documentation generation :)
12:45 cait to add more value
12:45 cait i think the documentation should go a bit beyond the mere description as in the gui
12:45 mtompset I just got your @later.
12:44 cait LeeJ: whatever you want and think is usefulr really
12:44 LeeJ mtompset: speak of the devil :)
12:44 mtompset Greetings, #koha.
12:44 LeeJ cait: I'll test out the documentation shortly..so for the System Preferences it's just the usual format listing the pref and its options right?
12:43 cait heh
12:42 huginn LeeJ: The operation succeeded.
12:42 LeeJ @later tell mtompset here's a challenge for you..install Koha then try to remove it with apt without touching the rest of the system :) something like "sudo apt-get purge koha-common"
12:41 LeeJ I know just the person who would love to test that command to see how well it works lol
12:40 LeeJ that always does that lol
12:40 wahanui interesting is sometimes good and sometimes bad
12:40 LeeJ interesting..
12:39 magnuse something like "sudo apt-get purge koha-common"
12:39 LeeJ it's actually a good question I think
12:39 magnuse use apt-get to uninstall
12:39 * magnuse neither
12:38 magnuse koha-remove removes one instance
12:38 cait i am not sure how clean you can get it
12:38 cait hm just the instance i think
12:38 LeeJ does koha-remove do that? Or just the specific instance?
12:38 LeeJ cait and magnuse...CJSHayward asked about how to purge all traces of a Koha installation
12:37 * magnuse tries to remember how to make sure zebra is up and running on a dev install
12:37 LeeJ cait: I got your message...and yes of course :)
12:37 cait LeeJ: can I interest you in signing up for a manuel editing test drive? :)
12:37 * magnuse waves to cait and LeeJ
12:37 * cait waves to LeeJ
12:37 * LeeJ waves to cait
12:37 LeeJ hmm...well the command "koha-remove" is supposed to remove an instance of Koha. I am not sure if it does or does not remove all traces
12:36 cait sorry, my laptop died while I was afk - if you sent me a message and got no answer please resent
12:35 CJSHayward I'd like to try to wipe all traces of Koha and reinstall from a fresh start besides package repository configuration, and beginning from installing the koha-common package. Does this make sense, and if so, what should I do to purge all traces of the installation?
12:33 LeeJ what in the world...
12:30 CJSHayward Posted an earful of error messages from aptitude trying to configure koha-common: http://paste.koha-community.org/474
12:08 * LeeJ waves
12:05 CJSHayward Thanks so much!
12:05 huginn CJSHayward: I'll give you the answer just as soon as RDA is ready
12:05 CJSHayward @drojf Mint VM (under VirtualBox on OSX)
11:51 drojf CJSHayward: what is your OS?
11:50 CJSHayward I started a fresh install to capture errors; I got http://paste.koha-community.org/473 at practically the beginning of webmin interface setup.
11:43 eythian heh, that's a useless error message, someone needs to improve the diagnostics on that...
11:42 CJSHayward eythian: I've gotten a couple of errors; the one I'm working onnow is at http://paste.koha-community.org/472?tx=on&submit=Format+it%21
11:41 eythian CJSHayward: you'll have to pastebin your issues so people can check :)
11:40 CJSHayward Should I file a bug, or is this an issue people are aware of.
11:40 CJSHayward Not sure if my last message got eaten by a bug. I've run an "aptitude update; aptitude upgrade" after the dot release was announced. I'm running into database issues both trying to upgrade an (incomplete) system I was trying to finish, and a fresh installation from scratch.
11:34 oleonard Hi all
11:15 drojf looks like rangi worked on libtest-dbix-class-perl in the past but it is deleted on alioth
11:14 drojf is the qa team busy and/or too small? i thought we had quite a few people
11:11 magnuse come on, qa-team, fill the PQA queue while he is gone!
11:11 huginn magnuse: Joubu was last seen in #koha 1 day, 13 hours, 41 minutes, and 12 seconds ago: * Joubu is afk for ~10days, take care #koha
11:11 magnuse @seen Joubu
11:08 drojf mysql appears to be running
11:07 drojf and DBI connect('database=koha;host=localhost;port=3306','kohaadmin',...) failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) at /usr/share/perl5/DBIx/Class/Storage/DBI.pm line 1487.
11:07 drojf missing Test/DBIx/Class.pm
11:05 drojf the other, not sure, i just saw that when building 17.05.01 too
11:05 drojf i think one is a missing dep
11:05 ashimema can't help so much there ;)
11:05 ashimema ah.. your packages
11:05 * ashimema is knee deep in code right now
11:04 drojf ashimema: i mean my automated packages
11:04 ashimema if atheia doesn't get to it I'll take a look
11:04 ashimema think Joubu has just gone on hols
11:04 * ashimema will ask atheia to take a look when he gets a moment
11:03 drojf "someone" should check what is with the failing nightly master
10:57 magnuse very cautious :-)
10:56 drojf maybe .02 in production if it works for them
10:56 drojf i have one that needs new stuff, they'll get a 01 to test their workflows now
10:54 drojf unless a library is waiting for new features, i would not rush it. since we had the problems with hourly loans i am cautious. before i considered .1 or .2 ok
10:54 magnuse but yeah, might be better to put it off until after my holiday in july
10:54 magnuse most of my libraries are small and use only the core functionality
10:54 * magnuse has upgraded to .01 for most of the majoer releases
10:52 fridolin whe usually start with release .05 or .06
10:52 fridolin and also because of translation
10:52 fridolin I'd say wait a bit
10:52 fridolin magnuse: gloups, i cant be sure
10:51 drojf that's for the bug reports to decide ;)
10:50 magnuse the big question then: do we consider 17.05.01 stable enough for use in production?
10:49 magnuse drojf++
10:49 fridolin yop super
10:42 drojf package done too
10:42 drojf fridolin++
10:20 magnuse too bad koha.dk isn't used for koha stuff any longer
10:08 fridolin thanks
10:05 magnuse fridolin++
09:44 cait fridolin++
09:15 fridolin yep
09:15 cait maybe jsut leave it out and leave her a later?
09:15 cait to check
09:15 cait i don't have my password
09:14 cait hm liz i think
09:14 fridolin who can create it ?
09:14 fridolin but there is no release > 17.05 category
09:14 cait cool :)
09:13 fridolin im writing release post on WP
09:13 fridolin cait: hie
08:46 cait looking for 'edit the manual' testers/authors - please let me know if you have time to try it

08:14 Tylathos Hey #koha
07:37 drojf ok then my testing is done ;)
07:36 cait one line fix i think
07:36 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=18741 critical, P5 - low, ---, julian.maurice, Pushed to Stable , Web installer does not load default data
07:36 cait bug 18741
07:36 drojf ok
07:36 drojf ah
07:36 cait should be gone in 17.05.01
07:36 drojf i stopped before the onboarding too, no user categories or anything
07:36 cait that's a known bug
07:36 drojf sample data does not get imported for me
07:30 drojf table is there
07:30 drojf oh sorry

07:30 cait i think on irc maybe, but not on the bug report
07:29 drojf ok sec
07:29 drojf did they say what os they are using?
07:29 cait club_enrollments
07:29 cait maybe you could take a quick look if you got the missing one in yours?
07:29 cait missing db tables
07:28 drojf i'll do another instance and try to avoid the onboarding tool
07:28 cait yeah, but this is a first time installation
07:27 drojf but we will have mariadb as default in newer debian and as workaround in ubuntu since 16.04
07:27 cait could you comment that it worked for you?
07:27 drojf that does not mean we should not fix the mysql bugs ;)
07:27 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=18836 normal, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , Patron login is erroring out after failing to find table
07:27 cait bug 18836
07:27 drojf we should ditch mysql as recommendation and change all docs to maria
07:27 cait can't find the bug he filed now of course
07:26 drojf stretch has mariadb
07:26 cait i wonder now if it was a mysql problem maybe
07:26 drojf a bit odd
07:26 cait drojf: somoene had a problem completing the web installer a few days ago
07:26 drojf i said yes to all sample data. but maybe that is irrelevant if you then use the onboarding tool
07:26 paul_p cait nope, it's finished. I'm waiting for the driver that will bring me back to airport (in half an hour)
07:26 cait some sample data, but you didn't install those
07:25 drojf should i?
07:25 cait hm
07:25 drojf no
07:25 cait did you experience any problems witht he web installer?
07:25 drojf not that i expected anything else at this point
07:25 drojf anyway i git a 17.05 on stretch and it seems fine
07:25 drojf a shame i have used it for thje first time now ;)
07:25 cait paul_p: are you still hackfesting?
07:24 drojf should
07:24 cait wb paul_p
07:24 drojf yes is hould
07:24 drojf ok. would have made more sense for the test install
07:24 cait drojf: you shoudl check out the manual :)
07:24 cait but you shoudl still be able to go into the usual installer process
07:24 cait i only tested it early on
07:24 cait drojf: i think there sould be a link to an advanced mode or something like that
07:23 drojf cait: i looked it up yesterday
07:23 drojf hmm. are the default libraries and categories gone completely with the new onboarding tool? or did i miss something?
07:23 cait we didn't see a drop of rain here yesterday...
07:23 cait drojf: math? at this temperatures?
07:22 drojf cait: it's UTC+8, ours +6
07:22 paul_p cait 3:30PM
07:22 drojf hi cait and paul_p
07:20 cait waht time is it?
07:20 paul_p cait good morning to you though
07:20 paul_p hello cait. Not really morning in Manila ;-)

02:02 mtompset No fault of the QA team... just not enough people. :(
02:02 wizzyrea as you do
02:01 mtompset Thanks, but it seems I've hit the horrid QA bottleneck. :(
02:01 wizzyrea mtompset++
02:01 wizzyrea that is good work
02:01 wizzyrea \o/
02:00 mtompset I've got jessie, xenial, and stretch coming up smoothly.

01:57 mtompset instance:user:pass:dbname:host <--- 9409 :)
01:56 wizzyrea (that's a thing I do quite often, create a Koha that uses an external server)

01:56 mtompset Oh and bug 14533

01:53 mtompset I'm attempting to dockerize Koha, and these bugs make it easier to automate nicely.
01:53 wizzyrea :)
01:53 mtompset that's beyond the scope of my issues right now.
01:53 wizzyrea and fixing enable/disable/koha-plack to do the right things with that setup

01:52 wizzyrea oh, yes approval
