| 11:11 | Lea | does anyone know where the "item count" data comes from? I've imported 2 records with bulkimport and using -d each time. However, the item count for both items is 5? This doesn't increment if i bulk import again, and there is no "5" values in my MARC records. Any ideas? |
| 11:35 | yea, bulkimport seems to be importing 5 records per MARC record, 4 are fairly corrupt, however dumpmarc seems to think there is only 2 records.... | |
| 11:35 | * 5 entries in Koha.items; | |
| 11:40 | kados | Lea: items are copies |
| 11:41 | Lea: so your records must have copy data attached | |
| 11:41 | Lea: to count how many records check the count of 'biblios' | |
| 12:27 | Lea | thanks kados. It's very odd. I'll have to deconstruct some work I've done on MARC mappings to see where this is coming from. Thanks. |
| 12:35 | ok, it seems that if there is a barcode, bulkmarcimport will treat this as an item and import it as such. that would be right yes? | |
| 12:37 | kados | Lea: yep |
| 12:38 | Lea: in MARC, one 'record' can have multiple 'copies' and Koha treats 'record' as a biblio and a 'copy' as an item | |
| 12:38 | Lea: in this respect, so do all library systems that I know of | |
| 12:38 | this is so you can have one record for harry potter, even if you have 10 copies of the book | |
| 12:38 | Lea | ok, this is odd. If I now add a "price" tag (952 _9) to the same record, it seems to make an entry in items when it finds the barcode, then another entry when it finds the price. |
| 12:38 | kados | (no need to have 10 records) |
| 12:39 | is it in the same 952 as the barcode, or a new one? | |
| 12:39 | Lea | so for 2 records, I now have 4 items |
| 12:39 | same | |
| 12:39 | kados | I've never seen that before |
| 12:39 | so something's up with your configuration ;-) | |
| 12:39 | Lea | um..... really? where would I even start to look? |
| 12:40 | kados | hehe |
| 12:40 | good question | |
| 12:40 | Lea | there is nothing much beyond a standard install here.... |
| 12:40 | kados | did you adjust the MARC framework? |
| 12:40 | Lea | no, i specifically changed the MARC data rather than alter the framework. Last time i did that I ended up in a sticky situation |
| 12:41 | kados | can you reproduce the problem you're having here: http://koha.liblime.com/ |
| 12:41 | if so maybe I can see where the problem is | |
| 12:41 | Lea | is there a way i can find out? |
| 12:42 | btoumi | oui d'accord mais quand tu fais ta recherche il pointe sur des mandriva2007 |
| 12:44 | kados | Lea: ahh, you're running bulkmarcimport |
| 12:44 | Lea | yes |
| 12:44 | kados | can you email me the records? |
| 12:44 | jmfkados.org |
|
| 12:44 | Lea | sure |
| 12:45 | kados | or jmfliblime.com actually would be easier |
| 12:48 | Lea | sent |
| 12:49 | kados | ok |
| 12:49 | here's the prob: | |
| 12:49 | 952 _g14304 | |
| 12:49 | 952 _99.99 | |
| 12:49 | in the mapped one | |
| 12:49 | you have one 952 for the barcode | |
| 12:49 | and one for the price | |
| 12:50 | for them to be one item instead of two they need to be in the same 952 | |
| 12:50 | ie, subfields within the 952 field | |
| 12:50 | rather than separate 952 fields | |
| 12:50 | am I making sense? | |
| 12:50 | Lea | ah right |
| 12:50 | totally | |
| 12:50 | that's really annoying! :) | |
| 12:50 | I'll have to rewrite my mapping code :( | |
| 12:50 | kados | yea, MARC is a pain |
| 12:50 | hehe | |
| 12:51 | good luck | |
| 12:51 | Lea | once I've completed this, I should have a generic python tool to easily migrate data. If it's of any use..... |
| 12:51 | lol kados. Thanks mate ;) | |
| 12:51 | kados | ahh, a python person :-) |
| 12:52 | have any experience with plone? | |
| 12:52 | Lea | i don't. TBH I don't even know what it is LOL! It's one of those things I' haven't got round to looking at yet. |
| 12:52 | kados | (why not just use MARC::Record ... it's realy easy to map things with it) |
| 12:52 | Lea | we wont go there no?! :) |
| 12:52 | kados | heh |
| 12:53 | so instead you're writing a MARC parser from scratch? ;-) | |
| 12:53 | Lea | there is a wonderful MARC toolkit for python called pymarc. It makes life VERY simple |
| 12:53 | no | |
| 12:53 | kados | ahh, I didn't know about that |
| 12:53 | cool | |
| 12:53 | Lea | title = record['245']['a'] |
| 12:53 | ;) | |
| 12:53 | kados | I'll have to take a look |
| 12:53 | Lea | I'm writing a mapper class so you can do this: |
| 12:54 | a = MARCMapper("test.mrc","test.mrc.mapped") | |
| 12:54 | a.cloneTag("999","a","952","g") | |
| 12:54 | a.removeTag(["600"]) | |
| 12:54 | a.setHoldingBranch("DOLG") | |
| 12:54 | a.doMappingAndSave() | |
| 12:54 | that will do all that for you | |
| 12:55 | i need to change it to handle multiple subfields of the same tag though ;) | |
| 12:58 | kados | right |
| 13:28 | Lea | kados: thanks for your help. I have 2 records in items now :) |
| 13:32 | and a whole load of bugfixes for my mapper class | |
| 13:34 | kados | Lea: congrats :-) |
| 13:35 | Anarka | heys :) |
| 13:37 | i'm about to implement koha on a small school library, there is some problems(i think) they only use windows | |
| 13:38 | so i'm thinking... the mysql server should be the heaviest process, so that could be installed in a windows server and maybe setup a "smaler" box with debian... is that a stupid idea ? | |
| 13:38 | a PII, PIII at least for debian | |
| 13:39 | Lea | if it's a small school library, why not install the lot on your P3? |
| 13:39 | or am i missing something here.... | |
| 13:40 | kados | Anarka: how many items in yor collection? |
| 13:40 | Anarka | could be but... i tried setting mysql, and koha on a pII350 with almost 400 mb ram and it want fast... |
| 13:40 | kados | Anarka: if it's under 20K or so the PII can handle it no problems at all |
| 13:40 | Anarka | hummm |
| 13:40 | maybe i messed something here then | |
| 13:41 | kados | maybe need to tune mysql a bit |
| 13:41 | my.cnf is the file to do that | |
| 13:41 | Anarka | i installed the debian package... didnt really change anything |
| 13:41 | but from you comments installing on separate machines isnt a good idea ? | |
| 13:42 | it's under 20k... | |
| 13:42 | Lea | keep it all on your p3 |
| 13:43 | but maybe invest a little cash in putting in more ram | |
| 13:43 | Anarka | over 512 ? |
| 13:43 | Lea | well, the more the better |
| 13:43 | Anarka | yeah from the wiki the ideal was to keep the db almost in mem |
| 13:44 | Lea | Anarka: there you go. If it's a P3, i'm sure you can easily find cheap ram on ebay for it |
| 13:45 | Anarka | Lea i think we can even steal from some boxes that are stored |
| 13:45 | but thats good :) | |
| 13:45 | Lea | do that then. Seriously, you don't want to be messing with splitting this up over different servers |
| 13:46 | Anarka | eheh good i asked then because i was considering that |
| 13:47 | and from what i've seen on some posts all the perl modules needed are available in etch | |
| 13:47 | oficially or from indexdata | |
| 13:48 | another thing... mysql on 4.1 right ? and apache ? can it be 2.2 ? | |
| 13:50 | paul | yes, mySQL 4.1 |
| 13:50 | and apache, 2.0 or 2.2 are fine | |
| 13:51 | hello Anarka | |
| 13:51 | Anarka | mandriva 2007 still has mysql 4.1 ? |
| 13:51 | heys paul :) | |
| 13:51 | paul | default is mySQL 5, but 4.1 is provided as well (& by mandriva) |
| 13:52 | Anarka | i have to pull 4.1 from stable/sarge in debian |
| 14:00 | Lea | Anarka, if you want a hand installing on ubuntu server, instead of debian, I can do that... |
| 14:00 | although not today :) | |
| 14:01 | Anarka | it should be identical :) |
| 14:01 | nah im not going to do that today | |
| 14:01 | Lea | if you believe that..... ;) |
| 14:01 | Anarka | it's not ? |
| 14:01 | Lea | i doubt it |
| 14:01 | Anarka | why ? ubuntu is one of debian's sons |
| 14:02 | Lea | well, it might be, but i doubt it is exactly the same |
| 14:02 | Anarka | most of it should be identical |
| 14:02 | in ubuntu are you able to install all perl modules via apt-get/aptitude ? | |
| 14:03 | Lea | well, here's my first tip: install webmin. It will save you from a world of pain |
| 14:03 | Anarka | because of mysql ? |
| 14:04 | Lea | install the perl modules through that and it will be much easier as it will resolve dependancies, download,install and test your modules in one click |
| 14:04 | ...maybe 2 ;) | |
| 14:04 | Anarka | webmin does that ? |
| 14:04 | Lea | yeah |
| 14:04 | Anarka | interesting |
| 14:04 | Lea | i g2g, really late |
| 14:05 | see ya! (thanks kados) | |
| 14:05 | Anarka | okis :) tnx for the tips |

| 05:12 | js | hello |
| 07:10 | Anarka | hummm i noticed z3950 search on CVS fully works on windows |
| 07:12 | do i need to use koha from CVS for it or could i just replace those files in 2.2.6 ? | |
| 07:23 | or is a release really close and maybe waiting for it would be better ? | |
| 10:04 | hdl | a release should be out in a few weeks. |
| 10:10 | Lea | hi |
| 10:31 | hdl | hi Lea |
