12:03 kados morning hdl
12:03 (or maybe afternoon for you :-))
12:07 hdl morning kados... Yes afternoon
12:32 kados hdl: so I am trying out the installer with the changes
12:32 no more errors!
12:32 except one:
12:32 marc21_simple_bib_frameworks.sql
12:32 ERROR 1136 (21S01) at line 129: Column count doesn't match value count at row 1
12:32 I think it's because of defaultvalue
12:32 marc21_simple_bib_frameworks.sql doesn't have that yet
12:33 I'll try to add it soon
12:33 hdl hehe
12:33 OK.
12:33 Good.
12:33 (I had a hard time debugging... since it was some mods I was not aware of)
12:34 kados *nod*
12:35 hdl: do you and paul have any instructions for how to enable mod_perl?
12:36 hdl yes... See practical mod_perl.
12:36 toins... can you detail ?
12:36 http://modperlbook.org/html/ch03_01.html
12:37 kados well, that's to turn on mod_perl for apache
12:37 but that doesn't actually activate it for koha IIRC
12:37 need a startup script that points to the modules in Koha, right?
12:37 and pre-compiles them?
12:38 hdl + there is some recommandations about the way to configure it.
12:38 yes startup.pl
12:38 dewey startup.pl is not included
12:38 kados and that link is not for apache2
12:38 hdl I can send it to you
12:38 kados it's for apache 1.x I think
12:38 ahh, great, that would be great
12:40 hdl I think taht apache::Registry could lead to bugs.
12:45 kados i thought that san-op discovered and fixed those?
12:45 or were those other bugs?
12:46 hdl I cannot precisely remember.
12:46 toins and paul worked on that.
12:46 I asked toins to tell you.
12:47 toins hi kados
12:47 kados hiya toins
12:47 toins == our resident mod_perl expert :-)
12:47 toins hehe
12:49 kados: here is one of my apache vhost for mod_perl : http://pastebin.ca/621809
12:51 here is my startup.pl file (head.pl here) http://pastebin.ca/621814
12:52 the <Directory> bloc is not mandatory....
12:52 kados ok
12:52 anything else required?
12:52 toins nope
12:53 just be sure apache-mod_perl is installed and enabled...
12:53 kados I thought SetEnv was for non-mod_perl
12:53 toins yes : SetEnv PERL5LIB /home/toins/dev/head must be commented !
12:54 kados hmmm
12:54 not sure I follow
12:54       PerlRequire /home/toins/dev/conf/mod_perl/head.pl
12:54 what is in head.pl?
12:55 ahh, I understand
12:55 that's startup
12:55 toins yep !
12:55 here is the minimum required : http://pastebin.ca/621819
12:55 kados I thought mod_perl required PerlSetEnv
12:55 otherwise, I don't think apache is using mod_perl with for Koha modules
12:56 http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.[…]tml#C_PerlSetEnv_
12:57 toins kados: i think mod_perl don't require PerlSetEnv if startup.pl containts 'use lib....'
12:57 kados ahh, could be
12:57 hmmm, I used to have a larger startup.pl
12:59 toins: thanks
12:59 toins your welcome !
15:57 thd kados: is there a developer's meeting this week
15:57 ?
15:58 kados thd: I didn't schedule one for this week, but I want to do one for next week
15:58 thd OK
17:49 aindilis I'm writing some scripts for Koha and I just want to check that they haven't been done before.
17:50 They are to make it easy to load books from a csv data file.
17:50 So for instance if you have the ISBN, it queries it using ZOOM and then writes to a file and uses bulkimport.pl to load.
17:50 bulkmarcimport.pl
17:51 kados hi aindilis
17:51 aindilis I'm now trying to get it to create items for each biblio but so far am failing.
17:51 hi kados
17:51 kados that sounds like a great tool
17:51 you should be able to use bulkimport.pl to create items too
17:51 just make sure you construct the MARC records with item-level fields that are mapped in your frameworks
17:52 aindilis okay, thanks, that's what I needed to know
17:52 which fields are necessary, just barcode?
17:52 kados homebranch
17:52 I'd recommend also
17:52 itemcallnumber
17:52 dewey somebody said itemcallnumber was supposed to be 852 $k $h $i $m combined
17:52 kados hehe
17:52 no dewey
17:52 jaron aindilis: I do basically the same thing with a ruby script I've written
17:53 aindilis jaron: may I have a copy of that script
17:53 ?
17:53 jaron http://zcc.rubyforge.org/zcc.html
17:53 aindilis thanks
17:53 jaron the only thing I don't do it automatically use bulkmarcimport
17:54 but I'm thinking of adding it to the next release as an option
17:54 aindilis cool
17:54 also, btw I can roll debian packages, does Koha need any?
17:55 jaron aindilis: uh, yeah! I think someone else was looking into that too.
17:55 kados: who was looking at debian packaging? slef?
17:55 kados yea, slef began that process I think
17:55 aindilis: that'd be great!
17:55 jaron aindilis: and I know he was looking for help.
17:56 kados yea, we could really use some installer help
17:56 aindilis: I'd like to roll out a developers' release for the next version (3.0)
17:56 later this month
17:56 one of the sticking points is actually the installer
17:56 aindilis well, I think it required a bunch of perl modules?
17:56 so just make depends on those
17:57 does anyone need apt-rpm or is that a separate issue?
17:57 kados that'd be nice, but most of us work in a debian environment
17:57 aindilis nice
17:57 kados aindilis: you want to give the 3.0 stuff a shot, see where it's at currently?
17:58 aindilis sure
17:58 kados http://kados.org/stuff/koha_30[…]rerelease_0.4.tgz
17:58 aindilis great, I'll give that a shot. it will take me longer than usual as I have to re-setup my packaging environment.
17:59 kados MJ's looking for feedback on his make build system too
17:59 which won't be included in that package
17:59 but it's in CVS
17:59 (mention of it isn't included that is)
19:16 hdl kados: next week. both paul and I will be away for vacation.
19:24 kados hdl: right ... when do you both get back?
19:25 hdl paul is back on the 29th.
19:25 I will be the week after
19:26 kados ok
19:26 will paul be OK with a meeting on the 30th?
19:26 koha developers meeting?
20:05 hdl kados :I think  so.
20:06 is there any problem with installer again?
20:38 kados hdl: are you having a prob with the installer?
20:38 hdl No. I was asking if YOU had problems with it ?
20:38 kados ahh, don't think so
20:38 just need to modify the marc21 framework file
20:39 hdl Great.

11:58 kados mornin jaron
11:58 jaron good morning
11:58 kados how's your MARC editor coming along?
11:59 jaron well, I'm in the middle of rewriting it. For being Ruby it wasn't as object oriented as I would have liked it.
11:59 so it'll be much improved soon
11:59 and have better objects for more than just this single script
