So far there were only like 6-10 in both w files 21:04 cait do you want that? 21:04 cait ah, I am using a regex to find and fix - still reviewing each one, but it speeds up 21:03 caroline I followed your lead and started with w :) 21:03 cait just running the make command to see if I now finally fixed all warns there 21:02 cait i tihnk the c will be even better, a needs a follow-up 21:02 cait :) 20:49 caroline cait++ 17:13 oleonard Bye lukeg 16:06 oleonard Hi lukeg 16:03 wahanui bonjour, lukeg 16:03 lukeg hi 15:02 reiveune bye 14:13 huginn` Bug 30076: enhancement, P5 - low, ---, kyle, RESOLVED FIXED, Add ability to check patron messaging preferences from a notice 14:13 AndrewFH it was https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=30076 . thankful to find I did not make it up 14:04 AndrewFH Hello! I kinda remember seeing a bug recently to make it possible to check a patron's messaging preferences via Template Toolkit in notices. I haven't been able to find it again, though. Sound familiar to anyone? 13:58 cait davewood: we usually run the web installer here too, not that many that it gets tedious really 13:41 davewood that might work but it doesnt seem like a good idea somehow. im happy for now and will send the info I gather as a reply to my own request on the devel koha mailinglist 13:35 cait mybe if you create an sql file that has all those first steps done and populate your db with that instead of running the installer? 13:35 cait but it needs a category type before you can run that... 13:34 cait there is a script for adding superlibrarians 13:34 davewood alright ... koha instance up and running. 13:31 davewood can the stuff the web installer does be run from commandline isntead of my browser? 13:29 domm davewood: I'm also often confused by the fact that you need the DB-credentials when running an update/install, even though it's the web interface. But it makes sort-of-sense, because the update script uses the DB credentials to connect to the DB and install the schema 13:28 cait sounds very likely 13:28 davewood koha-passwd? 13:28 cait is it green? connection to db alright? (second page or so) 13:27 cait but I am not sure what it's called right now 13:27 cait there is also some koha-... command that prints them for you 13:26 davewood I didnt think of using the database credentials. they work! thanks cait. 13:25 cait then you don't need to look in the file 13:25 cait there is a package command to get these 13:25 davewood it doesnt say which credentials to use, i tried what I thought made sense 13:24 cait you are using the mysql credentials from the koha-conf.xml? 13:24 davewood Please log in with the username and password given to you by your systems administrator and located in your koha-conf.xml configuration file. 13:24 davewood i hoped so 13:24 cait the tables are created aftr the login has happened, so that it's still empty would be right 13:24 davewood nope 13:24 cait into the web installer? 13:24 cait you can't get in? 13:20 davewood i advanced a few steps and now im stuck at http://koha-demo-intra.myDNSname.org:8182/cgi-bin/koha/installer/install.pl ... the credentials in /etc/koha/sites/koha-demo/koha-conf.xml dont work (Error: Invalid username or password). the remote DB still has no tables. 12:20 oleonard :| 12:02 cait i just had the same bugzilla support question by phone .) 12:02 cait lol 11:58 domm[m] oleonard: thanks, got it! 11:58 oleonard Under Preferences -> General Preferences -> After changing a bug... 11:57 oleonard-away domm[m]: Yes, it's an option in Preferences 11:56 domm[m] I find that mighty confusing.. 11:56 domm[m] Is there a way to get bugzilla to not jump to another ticket after an edit/update? 11:32 davewood if you dont use --defaultsql you probably have to run the web installer 11:32 davewood and the fact that `koha-create --populate-db` cant possibly work without passing --defaultsql but its unlclear what the value should be. 11:20 davewood that I think I can automate but the database table creation seems to be invoked by the web installer only 11:17 mtj yeah, the current workflow expects a sysadmin to manually create a db/user on the remote database 11:14 davewood mtj: i think im stuck at the fact that there is no easy+clean way to automate a koha installation + instance creation with remote database. looks like I have to use the web installer. right now im doing some try&error stuff to figure out how it can be done. 10:59 ashimema marcelr++ 10:59 mtj davewood: so where do you think you are stuck? 10:47 davewood s/koha-create.sql/koha-create/ 10:46 davewood mtj: pretty sure kohastructure.sql doesnt work because koha-create.sql does a search and replace for the string '__KOHASITE__' and that doesnt exist in kohastructure.sql 10:30 oleonard Hi #koha 10:09 ashimema morning 09:54 mtj manually adding db and user to remote, after request-db step 09:53 mtj that should work... 09:53 mtj sudo koha-create --use lib1 09:53 mtj sudo koha-create --request-db lib1 09:50 mtj hmm, i wonder why the populate step is needed then? 09:49 mtj superlibrarian user gets created at webinstall stage 09:48 mtj i think the web-install expects an empty db, with a correct db user/passwd 09:46 cait I am wondering how you get the superlibrarian etc. if you do it that wy, missing the onboarding 09:46 mtj yes, i think so 09:46 cait mtj: could you also run the web installer? 09:44 mtj ^ you will need to manually add the db stuff to the remote database, before running that 09:43 mtj koha-create --populate-db --defaultsql ./xxx/kohastructure.sql lib1 09:39 mtj davewood: so try using /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/installer/data/mysql/kohastructure.sql 09:38 mtj hmm, it does not use any defaultsql fiel by default 09:34 mtj if you think 09:28 mtj davewood: i think it it will use /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/installer/data/mysql/kohastructure.sql 09:17 davewood on a fresh debian installation. there has got to be a database template for a fresh koha instance. /usr/share/koha/defaults.sql.gz does not exist. 09:11 davewood whats supposed to be passed to `koha-create --defaultsql`? 08:53 davewood wow, i made a mistake myself here, I am not supposed to change the data in the txt file genereated by `koha-create --request-db` but rather take the autogenerated credentials from that file and create mysql database/user with it 08:46 davewood found a bit more info here: https://github.com/Koha-Community/Koha/blob/c5b715a8538cc71bb74eade8464821845f40dc4a/debian/koha-common.README.Debian 08:38 davewood cait: will do, thanks 08:19 cait maybe try asking here a bit later today - crowds change with the timezones 08:18 cait thanks I had missed that 07:58 davewood https://lists.koha-community.org/pipermail/koha-devel/2022-September/047322.html 07:58 davewood to: Koha-devel@lists.koha-community.org subject: koha-create with remote mariadb server 07:57 cait davewood: when did you send the email? https://lists.koha-community.org/pipermail/koha-devel/2022-September/date.html 07:56 fridolin we sometimes use remote DB but we configure that manually 07:55 cait ah, didn't see that one yet 07:55 davewood thats what i started doing yesterday. also wrote an email to koha devel mailinglist. 07:55 cait someone might be running separate db and be able to tell you 07:55 cait maybe worth chatting to soem about this issue first 07:54 davewood it tells me to edit the *-request.txt file and add the DB credentials but after that nothing ever seems to use that file. 07:53 cait you can always adapt the koha-conf.xml - but maybe it's possible to set the koha-site-defaults too (I haven't checked yet) 07:53 davewood the koha-create --request-db/--populate-db didnt work so far. 07:53 cait what speaks against a package install in that setup? 07:53 cait I am not sure if you will not lose all the package commands if you do that 07:52 davewood after peeking into Makefile.PL it looks like --install_mode=standard could be the right thing for us 07:51 davewood fridolin: we are currently working on a ansible/lxc setup where all containers running koha share one mariadb, ES server. 07:48 cait we roll our own packages including some changes, having a mix of one instance and multi-instance servers 07:46 fridolin packages are great 07:46 fridolin our install mean upgrades are done manually 07:45 fridolin cait: your totally correct 07:45 fridolin one Koha per OS 07:45 cait fridolin: sorry if I said something wrong 07:45 fridolin we have an home-made intall script using dev install mode 07:45 cait I have never done non-local - I woudl guess it's possible with all installation methods 07:44 fridolin davewood: yep i work for Biblibre (France) 07:42 davewood bad question ... which koha instance creation method is recommended. koha-create or Makefile.PL ... especially when it comes to non-local DB setup 07:42 cait but should maybe let frido or someone else explain their setup, just wanted to say there are other ways you can install Koha too 07:40 wahanui packages are done 07:40 cait packages 07:40 davewood cait: which installation method is recommended? 07:37 Guest1835 one of my customer is interested to see Demo of Koha Library Management Software 07:36 Guest1835 ok 07:35 Vinod hello 07:34 davewood biblibre is where fridolin works I guess? 07:33 cait (not sure if frido is around, given time difference) 07:33 cait there are other installation methods, that don't use the package commands but the Makefile.pl (standard, dev) 07:32 cait davidnind[m]: I think Biblibre is not using packages 07:29 davewood fridolin: you said you dont use koha-create. Whats your alternative way? 07:21 cait hi marcelr :) 07:19 marcelr hi cait 07:17 cait good morning #koha! 07:04 davewood mtj: I can update the docs once I have all the pieces together 06:53 alex_ Bonjour 06:42 marcelr o/ 06:30 reiveune hello 06:30 mtj the doc needs some example config files hey 06:24 mtj "If you are running MySQL on another server:" 06:23 mtj davewood: no problem... i now see the doco has info for remote install too 06:16 marcelr hi #koha 06:06 davewood mtj: didnt mean to rub you the wrong way, what im saying is that the docs do mention non-local-DB setups and even have some instructions but they are not very clear and can use some improvement. 05:41 davidnind[m] saa: staff interface > patrons > view the details for the account setup for self checkout > More button > Set permissions 05:32 saa Warning The patron used for the self checkout module at the OPAC does not have the self_check => self_checkout_module permission. where to set this permission
