I'm unable to save a record because there is some stupid field "Transcribing agency" which I don't want to fill in but in the same way I'm unable to save the record... I need to set this field not required.. 17:33 oleonard ...as a hedge against continued rejection I imagine 17:32 oleonard It is very thorough 17:32 tcohen holy, is it that complicated? 17:30 * oleonard makes it to step 109 of recalls test plan 17:26 tcohen he 17:26 tcohen it is not important but worth mentioning 17:24 tcohen can it set 'https' on the channel subject instead? 17:23 gmcharlt yup 17:23 tcohen who handles huginn? is it gmcharlt ? 15:09 reiveune bye 14:42 ashimema lots covered there 14:42 ashimema well done everyone 14:42 tcohen talljoy++ # TERM3 14:42 ashimema nothing like stepping in at the last minute :P 14:41 tcohen ashimema++ 14:41 huginn Log: http://meetings.koha-community.org/2020/development_irc_meeting_15_july_2020.2020-07-15-14.07.log.html 14:41 huginn Minutes (text): http://meetings.koha-community.org/2020/development_irc_meeting_15_july_2020.2020-07-15-14.07.txt 14:41 huginn Minutes: http://meetings.koha-community.org/2020/development_irc_meeting_15_july_2020.2020-07-15-14.07.html 14:41 huginn Meeting ended Wed Jul 15 14:41:40 2020 UTC.

Other sample data is really only for testing, like patrons, libraries, etc. 13:44 auvajs oleonard: well yes I checked all the buttons, lol 13:43 oleonard auvajs it sounds like you installed the sample data 13:43 ashimema cait, cait1, cait2.. any of you around? 13:42 auvajs it's a fresh new install! 13:42 auvajs hello.. so I successfully installed koha :) now my first question.. it appears there are several libraries preinstalled. I want to delete them and have only "my" library. I managed to delete some of those that were set by the system but I can't delete some of them - "This library cannot be deleted. Patrons or items are still using it (9 patrons)." .. this is strange since I have no patrons or units at all - 13:16 lmstrand I was just after a simple timestamp with milliseconds 13:15 lmstrand True that :D 13:14 kohaputti lmstrand, what you just said above is not how you are supposed to implement the proxy because it doesn't authenticate individual requests then, and also this is a bit off-topic for #koha 13:10 lmstrand and beyond. 13:08 lmstrand If I spam the sip server with the same message over and over again the processing time grows into over half a second. 13:07 lmstrand the first message to the sip server to process, the one that logs in a sipdevice takes 150ms to process on my pc. 13:05 lmstrand I'm inside a while loop, the one and only connection to the sipserver stays open for as long as the sipserver allows it to stay open. 13:03 lmstrand And the sip server requires a new login from the sip device 13:03 lmstrand It can't be closed, otherwise the session gets closed with the sip server. 13:03 kohaputti you need to close the connection after being done with your business 13:03 kohaputti and that is your issue, isn't it? 13:02 lmstrand But the one that passes messages from my proxy server to the sip server stays open, unless the sip server closes it. 13:01 lmstrand I'm closing the socket connection that the proxy server uses with the api endpoint after the message has been returned from the sip server. 13:00 kohaputti lmstrand, did study socket programming yet? Maybe you are not closing the connection and the amount of available sip server gets to 0 and then it times out and only after that your proxy continues to work 13:00 lmstrand I could just skip the sip server processing altogether and return a dummy value and see if the processing time stays stable. 12:59 lmstrand the problem is either in the api endpoint or in my proxy server 12:59 kohaputti I have not come across such issue with koha's sip2 server, maybe the issue is withing your proxy program? 12:59 lmstrand My script is separate from koha plugins 12:58 lmstrand I don't think I can use that in my case. 12:57 lmstrand it takes too long to handle multiple concurrent inputs and the time it takes to handle the requests just grows and grows. 12:57 kohaputti profiling is useful for optimizing your code but are you after that or something else 12:56 kohaputti lmstrand, why? 12:55 tcohen https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Profiling_with_Devel::NYTProf 12:55 lmstrand I want to see how long my proxy server handles incoming SIP calls for. 12:55 lmstrand yes 12:54 tcohen are you trying to profile some Koha script/code? 12:54 lmstrand I want to see how much time has passed after stuff is finished. 12:53 lmstrand to console 12:50 tcohen "printed"? 12:48 lmstrand Would any of you happen to know an easy way to get a time stamp printed in a me-friendly form like 12:36:07::xxx with milliseconds? 12:40 auvajs tcohen: well I run some other software/websites on the server, not only Koha 12:40 tcohen sudo cpanm -i Locale::Language@2.07 12:40 tcohen you can try 12:40 auvajs in this phase it's still possible for me to delete the VM instance and start all over, it will only take couple minutes 12:39 tcohen the wiki you pasted, it has a supported OS list 12:39 tcohen anyway, Koha is tested in Ubuntu as well 12:39 tcohen it is just that us devs test all the time on Debian 12:38 tcohen fair enough, I like it as well 12:38 auvajs well been using Ubuntu since more than 10 years and been totally used to it :) 12:37 tcohen if I was you, I would actually pick Debian 9 12:37 auvajs or if you think that starting all over with Ubuntu 20.04 would be easier I may give it a try as well 12:35 auvajs tcohen: it shows some errors but I'll try to follow the instructions they suggest there 12:33 tcohen he 12:33 tcohen sorry Locale::Language 12:33 tcohen $ sudo cpanm -i Language::Locale 12:32 tcohen $ sudo apt install cpanminus 12:32 tcohen ok 12:32 auvajs libintl-perl allready installed 12:32 tcohen and this is a packaging bug probably 12:31 tcohen try installing libintl-perl 12:31 auvajs I'm using Google Cloud Platform and I think thay didn't have 20.04 for the zone/region I needed 12:30 tcohen wait 12:30 tcohen $ sudo apt install cpanminus 12:30 tcohen so I suggest you do 12:30 tcohen I don't find it packaged for 19.10 12:29 tcohen the latter, if you cannot pick an LTS 12:29 tcohen - That you manually install the library 12:29 tcohen - That you install on an LTS release (20.04) 12:28 tcohen I suggest 12:27 auvajs https://termbin.com/ibmi 12:27 tcohen apt show koha-common 12:26 auvajs cohen* sorry for the typo 12:26 tcohen right 12:26 auvajs tcohgen: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian 12:26 tcohen apt show koha-common 12:26 tcohen so 12:26 tcohen you most probably installed using a Debian repository 12:25 tcohen what instructions have you been following? 12:25 auvajs what's the command for koha version please? :) 12:24 tcohen go on 12:24 auvajs Ubuntu 19.10 12:24 tcohen if this is a packages install, it should be installed automatically, hence I repeat: what Ubuntu and Koha versions? 12:23 tcohen mtj will be interested in the Ubuntu version, and the Koha version 12:23 oleonard Only Locale::Language is required to continue 12:23 auvajs tcohen: https://i.postimg.cc/0yqfc1rK/screen01.jpg 12:22 tcohen ^^ those shouldn't block an install 12:22 tcohen https://snipboard.io/sqDlij.jpg 12:22 tcohen Ubuntu? What version? Is it supported? etc 12:21 tcohen is this a packages install? 12:21 tcohen that one shouldn't prevent the install process, specifically 12:21 tcohen tell us more 12:21 auvajs tcohen: well most importantly I can't continue the installation process 12:20 tcohen Ah, it doesn't say it on the UI! 12:20 tcohen auvajs don't worry about those that say they are used for testing purposes 12:20 auvajs could somebody help me please? 12:18 auvajs Hello. I'm new to koha, trying to install it on Ubuntu server. I followed the instructions and installed the software, but when I log in to the Web installer, it shows several Perl modules missing. This is strange since for example the first one is HTTPD::Bench::ApacheBench but I installed it meanwhile 12:15 oleonard Hi tcohen 12:13 tcohen morning 11:42 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=25992 critical, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, Needs Signoff , SIP2 server doesn't start - Undefined subroutine set_logger 11:42 kohaputti I submitted the fix now for SIP2 server crash: Bug 25992 – would be nice if someone could sign-off and qa it asap so people can move forward testing other sip2 patches that are waiting QA/sign-off 11:40 kohaputti git-bz cannot handle bug reports with utf-8 chars in title :D 11:25 wahanui hi oleopard 11:25 kidclamp hi oleonard 11:23 oleonard Hi all 10:42 kohaputti khall_, I'm puzzled how you have been submitting patches for SIP2 server and not come across this, or did you hack your way through? 10:30 ashimema hehe 10:27 cait1 ah shoudl read all the things, you could too 10:27 cait1 ashimema: maybe tcohen could - i think he pushed something already... so barrier might be lower :) 10:20 kohaputti ok, updated koha now on multiple machines from a version before the refactoring and all have the same issue 10:11 kohaputti nope, it fails even on installed debian package 10:08 kohaputti I think I have had this code working on ubuntu 20.04 machine 10:06 kohaputti The C4::SIP::Logger module doesn't export get_logger and set_logger 10:06 huginn Bug 15253: enhancement, P5 - low, ---, kyle, Pushed to master , Add Koha::Logger based logging for SIP2 10:06 kohaputti turns out the issue with sip2 server was within koha / the refactoring of SIP2 logging: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15253#c102 09:13 * ashimema is tempted to jump in and fix the automicupdate that's hanging around 09:13 ashimema he's vaguely around now and then.. if there's something urgent tochen and I still have push rights on master and permission from Joubu to push anything important ;) 09:10 kohaputti ok, thanks for the info 09:09 ashimema Joubu is on his holidays 09:09 ashimema no worries 09:09 ashimema well.. it's an 18.11 I use and then run updatedatabase ;) 09:09 kohaputti has Joubu been around, btw? 09:08 kohaputti (I'm guessing your local test dataset is for master) 09:08 ashimema perhaps 09:08 kohaputti but maybe there has been some new db changes in master. 09:08 ashimema think I'll give up 09:08 ashimema hmm 09:07 kohaputti ah well, this patch set doesn't look to have any db specific changes so maybe it shouldn't matter here 09:04 * ashimema is not using misc3dev for this.. testing using a local test dataset 09:04 kohaputti ashimema, but the patches in the bug are totally different? 09:03 kohaputti ashimema, I remember the patchset that preceded this required specific version of misc_tools... Anyway, easiest way to debug is probably check why it doesn't load or just wait for joubu to rebase to current master 09:03 ashimema I'll try applying the bug instead.. though I bet there will be conflicts 09:02 ashimema yeah.. I checked out the branch and reset everything 08:52 nlegrand Bonjour #koha ! 08:50 ashimema brb.. meeting 08:50 kohaputti (with koha specific paths) 08:49 kohaputti figured out my problem with koha-testing-docker, the kohadev-koha user doesn't have PERL5LIB set 08:43 kohaputti ashimema, also maybe those testers used the patches that lari had signed off and added followups for... 08:42 kohaputti I mean https://gitlab.com/joubu/Koha/commits/bug_15522 08:42 kohaputti ashimema, so you checked out the new branch and did reset_all? 08:41 ashimema there's feedback coming in on the bottom of the bug.. so they must be running it somehow :( 08:40 ashimema or maybe there's another branch now.. I'll dig down the comments 08:40 kohaputti last update 5 months ago? 08:40 ashimema I thought Joubu had maintained his branch 08:40 kohaputti maybe the patches just don't work anymore 08:40 ashimema I just wanted to take a quick look at it. 08:39 ashimema lol.. I hadn't even looked at the status ;) 08:39 kohaputti we should mark the patches in the bug report obsolete if that is the case 08:39 kohaputti ashimema, the status "Signed off" is wrong? I think it was added when lari tested the patches attached to the bug report, but those are not the ones that we want to use 08:35 ashimema forever 08:35 ashimema I've just checked out the branch.. but all I see in the circ rules page is 'Loading, please wait...' 08:34 huginn Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=15522 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, jonathan.druart, Signed Off , New interface for revamped circulation rules 08:34 ashimema how does one test bug 15522 ? 08:30 kohaputti Undefined subroutine &C4::SIP::SIPServer::set_logger called at /kohadevbox/koha/C4/SIP/SIPServer.pm line 106. 08:29 kohaputti anybody gotten SIP server work in koha-testing-docker?
