| 04:02 | CGI131 | hello? |
| 04:02 | dewey | well, hello is anyone here |
| 04:03 | pupung | hi CGI131 |
| 04:03 | CGI131 | hello pupung, how are you? |
| 04:04 | K'm a Koha newbie who has just installed Koha 2.2.5 and I haven't finished setting it up, but I have some questions. Can you please help me? | |
| 04:06 | pupung | ill try my best |
| 04:06 | btw, dont you want to install 2.3.0? | |
| 04:08 | CGI131 | Thanks. Here are my questions. |
| 04:08 | I ran into a bug. I haven't finished going through all the configuration in the online manual, so that might be the cause, but I think it's something else. | |
| 04:09 | I was on the advanced search NPL skin webpage for users and I changed the language from English to French. | |
| 04:09 | pupung | what linux distro are you using |
| 04:09 | CGI131 | But I think I didn't load French during the installation. |
| 04:09 | pupung | uhh oh |
| 04:09 | CGI131 | So it says "internal server error" whenever I try to access the catalog page, so basically the user interface doesn't work. |
| 04:09 | pupung | wait.. let's wait for the french users here, sorry havent experienced that since i dont use french.. |
| 04:10 | internal server error.. did you consult the error logs? | |
| 04:10 | like of apache's? | |
| 04:10 | CGI131 | I guess it set something in the database that it reads to start up, and then it tries to access a nonexistent file, and the server can't serve it. |
| 04:10 | Just guessing. | |
| 04:10 | pupung | i usually experience error 500 when mysql is not working |
| 04:11 | CGI131 | So, do you know of any tables in the mysql database that have the value "English" or "French"? (en or fr)? |
| 04:11 | pupung | is mysql loaded in your memory |
| 04:11 | CGI131 | This is not giving a number, it just says 500. |
| 04:11 | I could reinstall it. Uninstall and reinstall, and put in both english and french. | |
| 04:11 | pupung | did you do that? |
| 04:11 | like clear all things,, drop the db | |
| 04:12 | delete the koha folder and restart? | |
| 04:12 | CGI131 | well, I looked at the logs in (wait... let me find the path) |
| 04:13 | whoops sorry it just says "internal server error" | |
| 04:13 | the path is /usr/local/koha/logs | |
| 04:13 | pupung | uhuh |
| 04:13 | how bout /var/log/apache | |
| 04:13 | CGI131 | Thank you, I'll check that, one second ... |
| 04:16 | well, i looked but it doesn't give any names of files, or anythiing that looks descriptive that would point to the problem | |
| 04:16 | the apache error log, that is | |
| 04:17 | pupung | hmm how bout mysql |
| 04:17 | did you check the logs of your mysql? | |
| 04:18 | CGI131 | No, I'm sorry, do you know where they are? |
| 04:19 | Mysql is loaded, I think - It's running, you can see it with "ps aux" in the process table. | |
| 04:19 | pupung | i think it's in /var/log/mysql |
| 04:19 | ahh ok | |
| 04:19 | CGI131 | Thanks, let me check. |
| 04:21 | There is a /var/log/mysqld.llg but it jsut seems to have messages in it like "mysqld ended", "mysqld started", and some stuff "you should upgrade your hardware" | |
| 04:21 | The last thing it says is "ready for connections" | |
| 04:21 | So I don't think that's it. | |
| 04:22 | The koha logs have lots of information. Maybe I'll try to connect to the koha webpage again, and then see what are the last messages in the logs. | |
| 04:23 | Huh, well, it's back now, so who knows what that was. | |
| 04:23 | pupung | yeah |
| 04:23 | but did you try to reinstall koha? | |
| 04:23 | CGI131 | I mean the page is showing the search engine page, without the "internal server error" - let me try searching once. |
| 04:23 | I didn't reinstall. It just righted itself somehow. | |
| 04:24 | Maybe having to do with my closing the staff client page? | |
| 04:24 | I have no idead. | |
| 04:25 | I would like to update to the most recent stable version - I think it's 2.2.9 | |
| 04:25 | Do you know which version(s) of Fedora Core or Debian it will work with? | |
| 04:25 | I'm afraid of upgrading to the latest Fedora Core and then finding it doesn't work and I have to downgrade, because I'm not sure how to downgrade. | |
| 04:26 | pupung | ofcourse any version of koha will work on debian |
| 04:26 | dunno with FC | |
| 04:26 | CGI131 | Also, I heard Koha doesn't work with MySQL 5 (or I read it). |
| 04:26 | Will Koha work with any version of Debian? | |
| 04:26 | pupung | yeah |
| 04:26 | koha is developed on debian | |
| 04:27 | CGI131 | Yes, but do you know, sometimes if you have the latest version of something, then applications don't work on it. |
| 04:27 | pupung | just stay with mysql 4.0 |
| 04:27 | or 4.1 | |
| 04:27 | there are backports.. | |
| 04:27 | ex. dotdeb | |
| 04:28 | dotdeb.org | |
| 04:30 | CGI131 | Do you know, something else is strange. I can't find the page I was looking at before, that had options like "make purchase requests", "book shelf", "recently read history". |
| 04:30 | I don't see it? Do you where it is? | |
| 04:31 | Maybe because I was logged in as KohaAdmin on one window, it took a cookie setting or something, and made it look like I was logged in? | |
| 04:32 | Oh, yeah, that's what it was. | |
| 04:33 | pupung | you mean you're at the opac? |
| 04:33 | CGI131 | But it's still working, yeah. |
| 04:34 | Well, I'll be careful not to do that. Maybe I'll look at the source of the html. | |
| 04:34 | I have a feeling that if I run into more trouble, I'll have to upgrade, because I doubt they're maintaining the old versions of Koha. | |
| 04:35 | Thank you very much, Pupung. | |
| 04:35 | What are backports? | |
| 04:36 | pupung | ohh its the a compatible version of an old package for a new version of a distribution |
| 04:37 | it's like installing mysql 4.0 at an ubuntu feisty which bundles 5.0 | |
| 04:37 | CGI131 | It may have had something to do with the file /cgi-bin/koha/changelanguage.pl |
| 04:37 | That's what's at that part of the form in the HTML source. | |
| 04:38 | Do you mean it's a mirror to download MySQL 4.0? | |
| 04:38 | Or it points to them? | |
| 04:38 | pupung | mysql 4.0 requires files that are no longer available in newer linux distro |
| 04:39 | you need backports to install it | |
| 04:39 | CGI131 | Does dotdeb have those files, or tell where to get them? |
| 04:41 | It's not just for Debian, it has resources for Ubuntu, too? | |
| 04:41 | pupung | yes dotdeb has them |
| 04:41 | ohh for ubuntu, just point your apt to older versions like warty or hoary | |
| 04:41 | they should be compatible | |
| 04:43 | CGI131 | May I please ask you which versions you are running of Koha, Linux, MySQL, Apache, and Perl? |
| 04:43 | pupung | Koha 2.2.9 (planning to upgrade to 2.3.0) |
| 04:43 | Ubuntu Feisty | |
| 04:43 | Mysql 4.1 | |
| 04:43 | Apache 2.0 | |
| 04:44 | Perl 5.8 | |
| 04:44 | well ill be installing a new linux distro called freespire | |
| 04:45 | CGI131 | Thank you. What's FreeSpire? Is it a flavor of Linux like Ubuntu or Debian? |
| 04:45 | How stable is the Koha 2.2.9 that you're running? | |
| 04:47 | Oh, I see the FreeSpire website, it says Freespire 2.0 begins with Ubuntu (Version 7.04) as its baseline. | |
| 04:49 | pupung | yeah |
| 04:49 | hehehe | |
| 04:49 | it's a cute desktop | |
| 04:49 | well i have to have a desktop on top of a server | |
| 04:49 | it's pretty frustrating | |
| 04:49 | we lack funds to purchase a dedicated server | |
| 04:50 | good thing about freespire is that it bundles propriety drivers.. | |
| 04:55 | CGI131 | Thank you very much for all your help. Do you know anyone who is using a recent version of Koha on a Fedora Core system? |
| 04:56 | pupung | errmm |
| 04:56 | sorry i have no idea who uses such | |
| 04:57 | CGI131 | Have a good night, Pupung. Thank you. |
| 04:57 | pupung | sure |
| 04:57 | you too | |
| 04:57 | anyway it's 1pm here |
