11:20 kados thd: yep
11:22 thd kados: The record in your example may be using 610 rather than 650 for Linux as a corporate name.
11:25 kados: have you included all 6XX $a, $v $x, $z, $y or whatever may be needed in any possible case as see also indexes in the biblio framework?
11:27 kados:  Also, have you unhidden them so that they would appear in the MARC view?
11:32 kados: the above presumes that you have 650 $a as the MARC subfield linked to biblio.subjects and need to expand the indexes searched for the biblio framework.
11:34 kados: are you still awake? :)
11:39 kados: Another possibility is that your example record, as is otherwise evident has been, poorly catalogued.
11:39 kados thd: still here
11:39 thd: shouldn't it show up in the MARC editor?
11:39 thd: for that example record?
11:40 thd: I couldn't find any more 6XX fields that had 'Linux'
11:40 thd kados: Any arbitrary 6XX may have been used to catalogue "Linux" as a subject by the inexperienced or unprofessional cataloguer who had catalogued that record.
11:42 kados: It will only show up in the MARC editor if a tab has been assigned for the relevant subfields and then they will appear under the assigned tab according to the biblio framework.
11:43 kados right ... so I'll check the SQL then
11:44 thd kados: The relevant field may not even be in the biblio framework while paul\x{015b} fix for subdivided subjects searches 600-699 sequentially.
11:46 kados: A 69X or 6X9 field may have been used properly for a locally defined thesaurus to supply additional subject terms not found in a standard thesaurus.
11:48 Kados: Where a standard thesaurus would be one such as Sears or LCSH which had been found insufficient.
11:49 kados: Is your quoted error message from that record?
11:52 kados here's the stuff in the 600s:
11:52 |     707177 | 12699 | 630 |       16 | 07            | a            |             1 | Linux                                    |          NULL |
11:52 |     707178 | 12699 | 630 |       16 | 07            | 2            |             2 | Sears                                    |          NULL |
11:53 |     707179 | 12699 | 650 |       17 | 07            | a            |             1 | Computer operating systems               |          NULL |
11:53 |     707180 | 12699 | 650 |       17 | 07            | 2            |             2 | Sears                                    |          NULL |
11:53 |     707181 | 12699 | 650 |       17 | 07            | x            |             3 | sistema de operacion de computadoras     |          NULL |
11:54 thd kados: 630 is uniform title used as a subject.
11:56 kados thd: so it's a case of poor cataloging then ... and I need to account for it with seealso ... seems like there are going to be quite a lot of cases similar to this
11:56 thd kados: you need to add the appropriate see also index links to 650 $a or whatever else you may have used instead for linking to biblio.subjects .
11:57 kados: Also any subfields you want to appear in the MARC view have to be unhidden and have to be set to a tab for the editor to be edited.
11:58 kados thd: thanks for your help
11:58 thd: I can't wait until we start using Zebra :-)
11:59 thd: btw: have you tried out perl-zoom yet?
11:59 thd kados: This case may be poor cataloguing.  The use of the Spanish translation as a subdivision instead of a repeated field suggests poor cataloguing.
12:00 kados: I have not had time but I have closely examined the documentation and noticed some problems the first of which I have posted to the koha-zoom list but it has not appeared yet.
12:01 kados: The Subject of my first post is incomplete CQL support.
12:02 kados: I know you are keen to use CQL for good reason,
12:04 kados: Is Mike planning to add scan() support for CQL any time soon?
12:04 kados thd: shouldn't be necessary
12:05 thd kados: there is also a library problem for sortby() support for CQL.
12:06 kados thd: I asked Mike about that
12:06 thd: here was his response:
12:06 "you can do:"
12:06        $ss = $conn->scan('@attr 1=1003 a');
12:06        ($term, $occ) = $ss->term(0);
12:06        $rs = $conn->search(new ZOOM::Query::CQL(qq[dc.author="$term"]);
12:07 thd kados: scan() is not required but could be the basis of a very significant set of features that would help to put Koha far ahead of other ILS systems.
12:07 kados: that is PQL not CQL
12:07 kados thd: fortunately we can use scan() :-)
12:08 thd: why does it matter? it's all going to be done behind the scenes
12:08 thd: (and notice the $rs line _is_ CQL ...
12:08 thd kados: So mixing the query syntax will not be a problem?
12:11 kados: Is mixing the use of PQL and CQL the way around for sortby() as well?
12:14 kados thd: mixing query syntax won't be a problem
12:14 thd: don't think that applies to sortby()
12:14 (meaning I think you can use CQL for that)
12:14 thd: but really, any question you have would be useful to ask on koha-zebra
12:14 as I'm sure others will have the same question
12:15 and Mike can do a much better job answering
12:15 thd The other issues that I noticed were still no documentation for the extended services that are at least now supported.
12:15 kados: I posted a couple of hours ago but my first post has not appeared yet.
12:16 kados: Also still no documentation for asyncronous connections.
12:16 kados thd: good point
12:16 thd: I hope you posted that as well :-)
12:17 thd: (yea, turns out that savannah is pretty slow for mailing list purposes eh?)
12:29 thd kados: Even if the case that you found for 630 is poor cataloguing, you should still have biblio frameworks that support any 6XX that may already be properly used in some record, both for the present set of records and any future ones.
12:30 kados thd: well I'm certainly not going to put _every_ possible 6XX field in seelaso
12:31 thd: that kind of subject support will have to wait until 3.0
12:32 thd: there is documentation for the extended services
12:32 thd kados: It should be built into the default frameworks which should work for Koha 3.0 as well.  Then the work would not be redundant.
12:32 kados: where???
12:32 kados thd: check the ZOOM::Package section
12:33 thd kados: It only gives the options without showing how to use them concreatly
12:34 kados thd: I thought it was fairly obvious :-)
12:34 thd kados: really? :)
12:34 kados thd: did you see my announcement post?
12:35 thd: it has a bit of code that _should_ work
12:35 and that will illustrate how to use the methods, etc.
12:35 thd kados: The PERL-ZOOM POD declares them not yet documented anywhere.
12:36 kados thd: http://search.cpan.org/~mirk/N[…]ZOOM%3A%3APackage
12:36 thd: scroll down to the ZOOM::Package section
12:36 thd kados: I think we are not referring to the same extended services.
12:37 kados "This class represents an Extended Services Package"
12:39 thd kados: even this link does not work "Package options are listed at http://indexdata.com/yaz/doc/zoom.ext.html ".
12:42 kados: Perhaps some extended services that I am thinking of are listed in the Z39.50 documentation but are not part of Zoom.
12:43 kados: The issue would be moot for Perl-Zoom if what I am thinking of is not in Zoom.
12:47 kados: I do not remember the names of the particular services off hand but they seemed to be intended for managing result sets in some undocumented fashion.
12:48 kados: The had to do with storing queries and result sets for later retrieval as a convenience and resource management issue.
12:50 kados: If what I am thinking about is not in Zoom Index Data may have added something similar for YAZ Proxy.
13:00 kados thd: yea, that's yaz proxy i think
13:29 osmoze aie
13:30 paul, juste une question : j ai un livre, a lafrancaise en pret.

14:03 paul, c est ca de devenir vieux geek ;)
14:03 good bye all
14:03 paul bye
18:07 rflach Can anyone tell me what a "This account is currently not available" error when attempting to run z3950-daemon-shell.sh means?
18:07 woops I mean -launch.sh
18:08 -shell.sh & runs ok but has other problems.
18:11 specifically after my $rs=$conn->search($query);pe(); the $numresults=$rs->size() was generating a can't run size on an undefined value error.  I added a my $numresults="0";if(defined($rs)){ prior to the above and that fixed a lot of problems.
18:13 but both before and after I have the following problem: after search results first show up, the next refresh tries to call /cgi-bin/koha/z3950/0 instead of search.pl which causes a server error.  I added some javascript to stop the refreshes if search results exists (with a button to continue searching if desired), but I'm not sure that's an adequate solution.  Any thoughts?
03:55 root hi a newbie here
