| 15:30 | thd | kados: are you about? |
| 04:20 | alex | hey anyone able to give me assistance with CVS? |
| 04:21 | I did a checkout -r rel_2_2 koha which I think is right? | |
| 04:22 | but the files in there are layed out completely different to a 2.2.5 tarball | |
| 04:23 | chris | yep they certainly are |
| 04:24 | there is a script called buildrelease that builds the tarball structure | |
| 04:24 | alex | do I need to do that to install from, or can I work from the CVS layout |
| 04:26 | chris | what are you wanting to do? |
| 04:27 | alex | Just looking at the first part of the install script, it is trying to work out the domainname/hostname |
| 04:27 | trying to package it | |
| 04:27 | chris | hmm, there is a 2.2.6 tarball on savannah |
| 04:27 | alex | so probably during the packing the install script will run |
| 04:27 | really? when did that come out? | |
| 04:27 | chris | or you could make one .. the installer.pl expects the structure |
| 04:28 | alex | is it an rc? |
| 04:28 | ok | |
| 04:28 | chris | not sure, paul is the release manager for 2.2.6 |
| 04:28 | he may have just not done an announcement | |
| 04:29 | alex | it wasn't announced from my browse of the website |
| 04:29 | chris | nope, he would have down a mail to the list, but i see the topic of #koha |
| 04:29 | alex | also the wiki seems somewhat outdated, had trouble finding pointers to savanah CVS |
| 04:30 | yes saw that | |
| 04:30 | not sure how to see the channel topic again, no irc wizz | |
| 04:31 | chris | type /topic |
| 04:32 | ahh that will be why no announcement, musta been a bug in 2.2.6 | |
| 04:33 | alex | thanks, found the topic |
| 04:35 | I'll probably run buildrelease from my checkout and go from there | |
| 04:37 | mjray offered to give me an overview of the install script, so I'll mail (him?) and arrange a time | |
| 04:38 | basically I need to know the extent of system specific stuff the install script does | |
| 04:38 | eg. embedding hostname or other system specific stuff in scripts | |
| 04:41 | chris | right |
| 04:42 | alex | my assumption would be that configuration/customisation that the install script does would be restricted mainly to /etc |
| 04:42 | not affecting random perl files | |
| 04:49 | chris | yep it pretty much is |
| 04:49 | alex | cool |
| 04:49 | chris | it makes a /etc/koha.conf and koha-httpd.conf |
| 04:49 | all the rest is done in the database | |
| 04:50 | alex | does install set up the database? |
| 04:50 | chris | yep |
| 04:50 | it does everything | |
| 04:50 | installer.pl that is | |
| 04:50 | alex | does it generate an SQL for the admin to load? |
| 04:50 | chris | nope |
| 04:50 | installer.pl does it all | |
| 04:51 | makes the db, loads the sql etc | |
| 04:51 | alex | IIRC there was a file i neded to change with an SQL template, used ty installer.pl perhaps? |
| 04:51 | i had to chagnge it to quote return | |
| 04:51 | chris | updatedatabase it uses, and a sql file |
| 04:52 | but mj was reworking it, so i dont know what his plan was | |
| 04:52 | alex | ok |
| 04:53 | I'll have to split that part of the install out of installer.pl | |
| 04:53 | or do my own install routine | |
| 04:53 | chris | i think thats what he was doing |
| 04:53 | so id check with him | |
| 04:54 | alex | ok |
| 06:12 | /quit |
