00:36 lari_         hi, i get "413 Request Entity Too Large" when attaching a patch to Bugzilla via git-bz. The patch is 1.4MB in size.
00:39 lari          same via web interface even if it says "File size limit: 6000 KB"
00:47 lari          less than 1MB works, so i suppose 1MB is the limit
04:02 amoyano       Hello everyone, I worked on bug https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=21772 and It's been in signed off status for 4 or 5 days now. I remember now that I did not "git format " the patches and send them to koha-patches ... If I already attached those patches to bugzilla.. should I still do it?.. sorry, I'm still new to this. Thanks

04:06 mtj           hi amoyano.. no need to send patches to koha-patches list, i think
04:08 amoyano       Hi mtj, thanks.. I had my doubts because it's still in the wiki
04:08 mtj           https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Set_an_email_alias_for_Koha_patches

04:09 mtj           amoyano: ...and thanks for the patches! :P
04:10 amoyano       That was a big WARNING sign i just missed.. :P thanks

07:45 reiveune      hello
07:45 wahanui       salut, reiveune
08:00 alex_a        bonjour
08:13 ashimema      what stats are you looking at where you want to beat wizzyrea magnuse?
08:13 * ashimema    thought perhaps https://github.com/Koha-Community/Koha/graphs/contributors
08:13 * cait1       waves quickly before being overrun agian
08:13 ashimema      which seems a really random order
08:13 * ashimema    throws hugs back at cait and hope's they catch her before she dissapears again
08:14 ashimema      go hugs, go
08:14 josef_moravec hi cait, ashimena, alex_a
08:14 cait1         :)
08:14 ashimema      morning josef_moravec
08:54 magnuse       ashimema: http://git.koha-community.org/stats/koha-master/authors.html
09:10 ashimema      cool
09:12 ashimema      wow.. i never would have said I'd crept up above you
09:39 andreashm     I love that 'root' is on the author list
09:40 dolf          I need some help diagnosing a problem... Not sure if this is the right place to ask. Here goes: On February 7th 2019 I updated Koha from 18.05 to 18.11 (latest one available in the Debian repos at that stage). Since then, we've been seeing some strange behaviour when adding new records (cataloging). Sometimes after adding a new record, there would already be an item, before we add any items.
09:41 dolf          We have database backups of almost every day at midnight since 2019/01/28. So I used mysqldbcompare to check what changed, and it seems that records in the biblio table are sometimes overwritten by the new record when cataloging (gasp), meaning that we randomly lose books when cataloging. Sound like a bug, but I'm not sure. And I can't find a pattern to reproduce it reliably.
09:59 magnuse       dolf: there is a function to replace a record with a new record, i think
10:01 magnuse       if you are in detail view you can choose Edit -> Replace record via Z39.50/SRU
10:01 dolf          magnuse: Are you referring to a Perl function, or some functionality in the user interface? I downloaded the source code and tried to surmise where updates to the biblio table are taking place, but I'm afraid I can't read Perl (yet).
10:01 magnuse       but that does not look like something you would do by accident...
10:01 dolf          O snap you answered before I asked
10:01 magnuse       hehe
10:02 dolf          I'm not the one doing the cataloging around here, so let me go and check with the people. But this only started happening after the update, and we've been using Koha since about 2013, I think. Maybe earlier. Got about 40k books on the shelf :)
10:10 magnuse       kia ora cait cait2 and vfernandes
10:22 vfernandes    hi #koha
10:33 ashimema      anyone know how the whitelist of prefs going into HEA was derived?
10:33 * ashimema    is wondering why MaxFine is not in there
11:35 oleonard      Hi all
11:35 josef_moravec hi oleonard
11:35 wahanui       hi oleopard
12:22 ashimema      anyone around to talk about overdue charges?
12:22 ashimema      I've got a scenario I want to run past someone
12:23 oleonard      Sorry ashimema I'm only available to commiserate about how bad fines are
12:23 ashimema      If a patron borrowers an item and it goes overdue for a few days.. they get fined... if they then renew the item the fine stops incrementing but remains owed.. correct
12:24 ashimema      if the patron then goes overdue again.. should that result in a new fine or append to the existing 'fixed' fine?
12:27 ashimema      oh hang on.. I'm wrong
12:27 ashimema      there an &&
12:28 ashimema      the warning in here should be unreachable
12:28 ashimema      oh good.. ignore me now
12:28 ashimema      though if you have a clue what MaxFine is meant to do that would be cool too oleonard
12:28 ashimema      the description isn't especially clear (and the code is even less so)
12:29 oleonard      Like I said ashimema... I only complain about fines, nothing more.
12:32 ashimema      lol
13:00 dolf          So here is a weird situation...
13:02 dolf          Search for a term, e.g. "justice" at /cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/search.pl?q=justice then click "Z39.50/SRU Search". In the popup window, click "Search". Choose a book and click Actions -> Import. Instead of going to a page called "Add MARC Record" I get "Editing [title]. (Record number 28412). But record number 28412 already exists, and has a totally different title. If I click save on this page, the old record is overwritten.
13:04 dolf          If I do the same thing starting from the http://192.168.4.2:8091/cgi-bin/koha/cataloguing/addbooks.pl page "Cataloging Search" instead of "Search the catalog" then I get "Add MARC Record". I hope my explanation is clear... This seems wrong. I'm not sure why Koha decides to replace an old record.
13:25 caroline1     hey guys!
13:25 caroline1     my computer died... :(
13:38 talljoy       morning #koha
14:13 alex_a        !seen corilynn
14:13 AnnaBoten     corilynn was last seen in #koha 1 day, 21 hours, 32 minutes, and 25 seconds ago: <corilynn> i only make socks on the knitting machine
14:25 wizzyrea      hi
14:52 ashimema      oleonard still about?
14:53 * ashimema    is still working on fines.. but this time it's a UX/UI question ;)
15:09 oleonard      I am back ashimema
15:13 * oleonard    forgot AnnaBoten was a bot
15:22 oleonard      Who runs AnnaBoten?
15:22 oleonard      AnnaBoten: Who is your master?
15:22 AnnaBoten     Error: "Who" is not a valid command.
15:22 oleonard      AnnaBoten: Whom do you call Maker?
15:22 AnnaBoten     Error: "Whom" is not a valid command.
15:26 ashimema      On the school run now
15:27 ashimema      I was going to get your thoughts on UI changes for bug 22521
15:27 huginn`       Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=22521 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, martin.renvoize, NEW , Convert fines handling to use 'status' instead of two accounttypes
15:27 oleonard      I'll take a look ashimema
15:28 ashimema      I'm looking to break down accounttype ( which currently hold both the 'type' and the 'state' of accountline in a quasi field) into accounttype and status
15:28 ashimema      So.. in this particular bug it'll be removing 'FU' and adding various statuses to overdue fines
15:29 ashimema      Wondering how best to expose that in the UI..
15:29 ashimema      I've not done anything UI wise yet
15:29 ashimema      Just seeking direction really
15:29 ashimema      I could map stuff back in the controller's for now..
15:30 ashimema      But longer term it might be nice to do something else
15:37 wizzyrea      so you're talking about the distinction between a fine that isn't accruing, and one that is?
15:37 wizzyrea      and how to show that?
15:39 wizzyrea      well "account type" has always been a bit confusing
15:39 wizzyrea      what are your statuses?
15:41 * oleonard    waves to wizzyrea
15:42 corilynn      hi, ya'll, I have questions
15:44 oleonard      corilynn: Do we get to see them? :)
15:44 corilynn      sorry, trying to form them. So, my friend bug 18823
15:44 huginn`       Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=18823 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, carnold, Signed Off , Advanced editor - Rancor - add ability to edit records in import batches
15:44 corilynn      got a re-base today?
15:45 corilynn      and there were two bugs mentioned in comment 79
15:45 oleonard      Oh yes alex_a was looking for you earlier
15:45 corilynn      https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=18823#c79
15:45 huginn`       Bug 18823: enhancement, P5 - low, ---, carnold, Signed Off , Advanced editor - Rancor - add ability to edit records in import batches
15:45 corilynn      I've been knee deep in another proj
15:46 corilynn      but those two bugs don't seem to have any thing to do with this?
15:46 corilynn      where did those bugs come from?
15:47 corilynn      is there some line of communication I'm not in?
15:48 ashimema      Sorry, was on school run
15:49 oleonard      corilynn: The comment was made by alex_a who appears to not be around at the moment
15:50 corilynn      kewl, but generally, where did those bugs come from?
15:50 corilynn      is there a line of communication, oleonard, that I'm not privy to?
15:50 oleonard      No
15:50 corilynn      or, rather, am unaware of...
15:50 ashimema      So right now I've kept the three states that already existed for fines.. 'FU' could become either 'F' or 'FFOR'.. do.. I've changed that to 'OVERDUE' as the accounttype and 'UNRETURNED', 'RETURNED' and 'FORGIVEN' as the states
15:51 ashimema      But it could in the future include LOST for example
15:51 wizzyrea      so you could say something like Fine (Unreturned item)
15:52 ashimema      I've also given VOID the same treatment in nother bug.. is now keeps its original accounttype and gets a status of VOID instead.. I didn't like that you lost the type of the credit you were voiding
15:52 wizzyrea      Fine - unreturned is basically just a fine right?
15:52 ashimema      That's kinda what led me down this in the first place
15:53 wizzyrea      so you could just say "Fine"
15:53 wizzyrea      bah let me go back
15:53 wizzyrea      fine - returned is basically just a fine
15:53 wizzyrea      so you don't need to say anything more about it
15:53 ashimema      I got 'unreturned' from a rangi comment somewhere.. 'FU' was originally coined for Fine Unreturned (I always thought it was (fine updating)
15:54 wizzyrea      right, the intent is the same, it's an accruing fine
15:54 * alex_a      just finished a meeting
15:54 alex_a        oleonard, corilynn ?
15:54 corilynn      i'm here alex_a
15:55 wizzyrea      you could also say "Fine (accruing)" but accruing is a terrible word
15:55 wizzyrea      i mean it's a great word its just not a common word

15:56 wizzyrea      why ware we dotting
15:56 alex_a        i don't know
15:56 corilynn      where did the bugs come frome?
15:56 ashimema      agreed
15:57 corilynn      i.e. how did you know to obsolete the patches, alex_a?
15:57 ashimema      it's more how to display.. I like the bracket approach.. or it could be a further field in the tables or anything else (a hover effect.. I don't like that idea myself)..
15:57 kidclamp      that was an "oh i didn't sign in this morning. Any laters?"
15:57 kidclamp      but no...kidclamp is not needed
15:57 corilynn      kidclamp is always needed
15:58 oleonard      kidclamp: That's why you say hello, didn't your momma raise you right?
15:58 alex_a        corilynn, 'cause i got a weird conflict when applying again the patches
15:58 kidclamp      don't blame my momma for my mistakes
15:58 * oleonard    is always fishing for @laters when greeting the room
15:58 corilynn      oooooooh okay
15:58 * kidclamp    clamp clamp clamp
15:58 ashimema      lol
15:58 corilynn      I was just thinking I was out of the loop somehow
15:59 kidclamp      @later tell oleonard keep up the great work, and you are a sharp dresser
15:59 huginn`       kidclamp: The operation succeeded.
15:59 corilynn      thx, alex_a
15:59 corilynn      also, alex_a, are we waiting on the gods that are QA before we move on with the rest of the patches?
16:00 * oleonard    will now stay silent until he forgets he read kidclamp's message
16:00 oleonard      Dang it!
16:00 * ashimema    hasn't been called a god before
16:00 ashimema      lol
16:00 corilynn      I highly doubt that, ashimema
16:01 alex_a        corilynn, we are waiting on the QA team :)
16:01 corilynn      okay, I thought so, just checking
16:01 alex_a        Gods want cash. QA team is free corilynn
16:01 corilynn      my hubs is QA, so I know of the secret handshakes and stuff
16:01 ashimema      aw, shucks
16:01 ashimema      hehe
16:03 alex_a        kidclamp, i rebased bug 19270. Do you think it needs more work or can it be signed off ?

16:03 wizzyrea      corilynn, it's too bad I don't know you better because I have the most inappropriate response to that handshake thing
16:03 corilynn      wizzyrea, I'm cool
16:03 wizzyrea      and I don't know if you'd laugh or hate me
16:03 corilynn      for those that know me, laughing is my most likely response to nearly every situation
16:03 wizzyrea      or at least think i'm uncultured swine, which is actually probably true.

16:15 wizzyrea      why do stupid crunchy cheetos have to taste so good
16:15 wizzyrea      and why do people who live in my house (not me) keep buying them
16:16 wizzyrea      also oreos.
16:16 wizzyrea      these are not things people should keep in my house.

16:20 * ashimema    has the same problem
16:23 wizzyrea      this is a strong case for working from the library
16:24 mifantrax     good afternoon everyone, i would like to change the text displayed on the koha login page, as we use GoogleOpenID and also username and password authentication, are there system preferences for that ?
16:24 mifantrax     this is the page
16:24 mifantrax     https://library.tcmi.edu/
16:25 mifantrax     thank you
16:26 oleonard      mifantrax: There is a system preference, OpacLoginInstructions, for changing the text which appears below the login form
16:27 mifantrax     strange, i thought i tried that and it did not help.
16:27 mifantrax     thank you for your info
16:27 mifantrax     i might have done something wrong
16:28 mifantrax     i will look again,
16:28 * oleonard    was wrong to hope this was a library for Turner Classic Movies
16:28 mifantrax     one more question, is it possible to customize it in fuction of the language chosen my the patron ?
16:29 ashimema      is there a reason we don't use the accounts.inc include for all cases that you know of oleonard?
16:29 oleonard      mifantrax: Unfortunately no. The OpacLoginInstructions preference is global for all languages
16:29 ashimema      neither opac-account.tt and pay.tt seem to use it.
16:29 oleonard      ashimema: I do not know
16:30 ashimema      okies
16:30 ashimema      ta
16:30 wizzyrea      mifantrax, i thought we had some code in that let you TT in there
16:30 wizzyrea      so you could do conditionals
16:30 wizzyrea      I know of libraries that have customised their html blocks
16:30 wizzyrea      in multiple languages
16:31 wizzyrea      https://toiohomai.mykoha.co.nz/
16:31 wizzyrea      this one, for example, in te reo Māori
16:32 mifantrax     ok, thank you very much
16:32 mifantrax     i will look into that
16:32 oleonard      (which reminds me to wonder why the language-picker isn't on the login page)
16:33 oleonard      wizzyrea: Is the te reo Māori version customized?
16:33 wizzyrea      yep
16:33 wizzyrea      er no
16:34 reiveune      bye
16:34 wizzyrea      i'm feeling like that code to do it was at the very least submitted to Koha
16:34 wizzyrea      if not in
16:36 wizzyrea      http://git.catalyst.net.nz/gw?p=koha.git;a=commit;h=7919feea6322ec2c5f9b6b231c30f9fe4a4b77b4 this was the code to do it
16:36 ashimema      is it documented.. I'd not realised you could do that
16:37 wizzyrea      it looks like it never made it upstream :(
16:37 ashimema      :(
16:37 wizzyrea      but it's a real easy fix
16:37 ashimema      boooo
16:38 * ashimema    glares at rangi ;)
16:38 oleonard      How does it work wizzyrea ?
16:38 wizzyrea      you put TT directives in your sysprefs
16:38 wizzyrea      [% IF $lang == "en" %] <do this thing> ... etc
16:39 wizzyrea      and else the other languages until you've got them all translated
16:39 oleonard      So is it the "eval" filter which is missing?
16:39 wizzyrea      yep
16:40 wizzyrea      I think they only did the ones we were using
16:40 wizzyrea      but you could do it to all of them

21:12 ashimema      cait , how goes it
21:16 cait          we are done
21:16 cait          the user group meeting went well :) we had a room with 21 seats and managed to cram 42 people in
21:16 cait          some more tried to get in... i hope we wll have a bigger room next year
21:18 cait          how are things with #koha?
21:26 ashimema      All seems good, busy busy as ever..
21:27 ashimema      I've been hacking away on fines handling.. the logic in here ain't half confusing..
21:27 ashimema      it's made me ask lots of surrounding questions . Like
21:28 ashimema      How was the sysprefs whitelist derived for HEA and are we as QA team responsible for working out if new Prefs should be added to that whitelist as Prefs are added?
21:28 * ashimema    doesn't know why MaxFine isn't in the list
21:29 cait          good question, no idea :)
21:30 ashimema      Well, it's not changed since he's first went in as far as I can tell... So there's lots of more recent Prefs missing from it
