| 13:47 | kados | hiya jaron |
| 13:47 | jaron | hello |
| 13:48 | kados | what's new? |
| 13:49 | jaron | ah, not much and with you? |
| 13:49 | i haven't had much of a chance to work on anything really | |
| 13:49 | kados | yea, I know the feeling |
| 13:49 | heading to Kansas :-) | |
| 13:49 | jaron | Kansas? |
| 13:50 | what takes you there? | |
| 13:50 | kados | doing a presentation for a library consortia |
| 13:50 | jaron | cool |
| 13:50 | how often are you travelling these days? | |
| 13:50 | kados | I go in spurts |
| 13:51 | it's been an awful lot lately | |
| 13:51 | 2-3 flights per week for a month, then two weeks off, repeat | |
| 13:51 | but there doesn't seem to be any way to avoid it, libraries really want to see you in person | |
| 13:52 | jaron | yeah, can't completely understand it but I guess that's the way folks are |
| 17:42 | martinmorris | evening - I've been asking about a problem I'm having generating barcodes and wondered if anybody could help |
| 17:43 | (hello btw) | |
| 17:43 | jaron | hiya |
| 17:44 | I can't help much with barcodes though | |
| 17:44 | I first used preprinted barcodes | |
| 17:45 | then used my script to automatically insert the next barcode number into the record | |
| 17:46 | martinmorris | fair enough |
| 17:46 | jaron | are you looking for how to initially create barcodes or how to print barcodes? |
| 17:46 | martinmorris | it would be lovely to get it working so if anybody out there can help that would be good |
| 17:47 | i've got barcodes, i just want to print them using koha | |
| 17:47 | jaron | yeah, that's the part I never got working to my satisfaction |
| 17:47 | I wanted custom information on my barcodes | |
| 17:48 | I use glabels for printing barcodes | |
| 17:48 | martinmorris | i'd be perfectly happy with the bog standard ones |
| 17:48 | glabels? | |
| 17:48 | for gnome, OK | |
| 17:48 | jaron | export to csv file and then print to custom template using glabels |
| 17:48 | yeah, but using it on kde ;) | |
| 17:49 | martinmorris | OK :) |
| 17:49 | is koha's barcoding generally hard to get working then? | |
| 17:49 | jaron | well, I gotta run. you've sent emails to the list? |
| 17:50 | martinmorris | not yet, that's probably the next stage |
| 17:50 | jaron | yeah, I'd try that--and if I remember there's some stuff about perl modules and all in the archives |
| 17:51 | hope that doesn't send you one a wild goose chase :) | |
| 17:51 | later | |
| 18:20 | martinmorris | if anybody notices this, I get an error: Can't locate PDF/API2/PDF/Utils.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/koha/i |
| 18:20 | ntranet/modules /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.8 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8 | |

| 18:20 | rer: http://katalogo.martinmorris.o[…]codes/barcodes.pl | |
| 18:54 | CGI650 | hello? |
| 18:55 | ??? | |
| 18:55 | anyone here? | |
| 19:12 | pidgee | hello all... |
| 19:12 | martinmorris | hello pidgee |
| 19:12 | pidgee | I've a strange return when querying the DB... |
| 19:13 | I'm asking for item with barcode 505 | |
| 19:14 | it returns the notice 495 | |
| 19:14 | but there is no barcode 505 | |
| 19:14 | in fact there is no more barcode 505 | |
| 19:14 | this book was not correctly encoded and deleted | |
| 19:15 | i try to understand what's wrong in DB viewing it with mysql... | |
| 19:15 | is there any drawing of the relations between DB tables ? | |
| 19:31 | is there any development document explaining the linking between the tables ? | |
| 20:09 | thd | pidgee: is your question specifically about barcodes? |
| 20:14 | pidgee | i've seen the problem at barcode level... |
| 20:15 | I'm "building" some SQL commands to generate some listings (lists of the books, borrowers, ...) | |
| 20:15 | that will help us to have at some times an overview of the library | |
| 20:32 | thd | pidgee: you need to communicate with kados about the current koha barcode module, I think there is problem with individual releases and the barcode module. kados wrote the module to work from a CVS update of a particular release. Some how I think individual releases do not all have the files in the correct location for the barcode module. |
| 20:36 | pidgee: kados maybe online in half an hour or so for you to ask him or you could try the koha mailing list. | |
| 20:58 | pidgee | I think I've found an other problem... |
| 20:59 | Some data seems to be duplicated in tables marc_subfield_table and biblio | |
| 20:59 | Is it right ? | |
| 21:02 | For one book, the marc data are stored correctly in table marc_subfield_table... but nothing is stored in biblio except the timestamp... | |
| 21:02 | Is it normal ? | |
| 21:06 | masonj | pidgee: nope, that is a bit odd |
| 21:08 | depending on your kohadb/marcdb mappings, your biblio.bibitem, items records should be getting updated with your marc data | |
| 21:38 | pidgee | kados: hello are you online ? |
| 21:41 | kados | hi pidgee |
| 21:42 | pidgee: what's up? | |
| 21:43 | pidgee | I'm using koha 2.2.5 |
| 21:43 | I've a problem with the linking between the the barcode and the notice for one book... | |
| 21:43 | kados | I'd recommend upgrading to 2.2.9 |
| 21:44 | pidgee | there is nomore a barcode 505... but the search return a notice... |
| 21:45 | how is build the sql query when searching for the barcode ? | |
| 21:51 | martinmorris | while you're there kados - i've just sent a post to the list about a problem with barcodes I'm having |
| 21:51 | kados | *nod* |
| 21:52 | martinmorris | can you see it or shall i describe it again? |
| 21:52 | kados | well, it's difficult because that's not exactly a maintained module |
| 21:52 | martinmorris | right OK |
| 21:52 | kados | someone wrote it, it never worked, and then they just up and left :-) |
| 21:52 | but the good news is, we just created a pretty nice new one | |
| 21:53 | martinmorris | in koha 3.0? |
| 21:53 | kados | yep |
| 21:54 | martinmorris | i can wait until then :) |
| 21:54 | kados | can or can't? |
| 21:54 | martinmorris | can |
| 21:54 | kados | cool |
| 22:05 | thd | chris: are you there? |
| 22:13 | kados: when I switch branches in git using the checkout command how is it possible to have different changes for multiple branches if there is only one master stored on the file system where switching branches with a checkout command does not use a different directory on the file system from the master directory? | |
| 22:32 | pidgee | "marc_subfield_table.bibid" should be linked to wich fields ? |
| 23:06 | thd | pidgee: you are looking at something confusing because multiple keys are used redundantly |
| 23:35 | chris: are you awake? | |
| 23:36 | chris: I have a question about git usage | |
| 00:09 | masonj | thd: chris is having a little jet-lag nap |
| 00:10 | kados | naps++ |
| 00:10 | thd | masonj: I should have one too |
| 00:10 | masonj: git kept me up past my bedtime | |
| 00:13 | masonj | yeah, she takes a little while to get your head around |
| 00:13 | thd | masonj: do you have some experience with gitweb? |
| 00:14 | masonj | a little |
| 00:14 | as a user, i havent set one up | |
| 00:16 | thd | masonj: I am trying to set one up as a user to better understand what I am doing. I have used a local copy of viewcvs and a rsync copy of the Koha CVS to see what I am doing in CVS. |
| 00:16 | masonj | right |
| 00:17 | thd | masonj: unfortunately, gitweb is giving me a 403 permission denied error which I do not know how to solve |
| 00:18 | masonj | yeah, ive found gitweb a good buddy to have when trying to work out what git is doing behind the scenes |
| 00:18 | gitweb uses apache? | |
| 00:19 | thd | masonj: mine does |
| 00:19 | masonj: I image that any web server would do | |
| 00:19 | masonj | so tailing apaches error.log gives you some clues? |
| 00:20 | and apaches access.log too | |
| 00:20 | thd | masonj: if clues were the same as solutions then I would be fine |
| 00:20 | masonj | perhaps apache does have perms to read yr gitweb files |
| 00:21 | thd | masonj: one of the first thing that I did was ensure that would not be true |
| 00:22 | masonj: I even made them world readable | |
| 00:23 | masonj | hmm, execute perms too? |
| 00:24 | thd | masonj: everything but write permissions but I even granted those for a test |
| 00:24 | masonj | :( |
| 00:25 | hmmm, get chris when hes about , he has a happily running gitweb that you can compare yours too | |
| 00:26 | thd | masonj: yes, he must have the magic joo joo dust |
