07:00 nicomo hi Amit
07:08 chris gah, the rebuild_zebra emails will never stop
07:08 can i just reply and see man cron, and if you dont understand that, dont try and run your own linux server
07:37 Amit hi kf nahuel
07:37 nahuel hi
07:38 kf hi nahuel and Amit
07:54 mason heh, koha is not your sys-admin  :)
07:55 why not? , and when will this bug be fixed !
07:55 Amit hi mason
08:00 hdl_laptop mason: just do it ;)
08:01 mason: it "merely" requires not to launh rebuild_zebra over and over again while the previous rebuild_zebra has not finished ;)
08:02 chris lockfile will do that
08:02 thats not the problem they are having
08:02 the problem people are having is understanding what cron is
08:03 ie, running rebuild_zebra at all
08:03 mason haaay, i have to ask some-one just to make sure...
08:03 is the koha-zebraqueue-ctl.sh / zebraqueue_daemon.pl script *not* the prefered way to do zebra updates?
08:04 if so - is it because of memory-leaking?
08:05 chris yep
08:05 mason what are biblibrians using ? a 1 minute cron of 'rebuild_zebra.pl -z -a -b'
08:05 or the 'zebraqueue_daemon.pl' daemon?
08:05 chris the memory leak is due to our modules not being safe
08:06 same problem hurts running under mod_perl
08:06 (ie they dont clean up after themselves)
08:06 mason aaah, subtle / complex :/
08:06 chris which is fine when you run them as cgi, or one hit like rebuild_zebra.pl
08:06 but if it runs forever like mod_perl or the daemon, they leak
08:07 im unhappy with the cron solution
08:07 mason gotcha, i recall this being discussed a few months ago
08:07 chris but it wont be fixed 3.0.x
08:07 mason i guess the other goofy solution is a cron to restart zebraqueue_daemon.pl every 10 mins / 60 mins etc...
08:07 chris yeah
08:08 better solution is to rewrite the daemon and also fix our modules, so we destroy objects properly
08:08 mason ive had the zebraqueue_daemon.pl daemons on my boxes and havent noticed any ballooning processes...
08:08 chris but thats harder
08:09 it takes a while
08:09 mason yeah, ill take a quick tmp fix, until then
08:09 chris but if a library circulates or catalogues a lot
08:09 they can grow fastish
08:10 the main problem is, it hasnt been kept up to date
08:10 ie when people made changes to rebuild_zebra, they didnt make changes to the zebraqueue-daemon
08:10 so its doing slightly different things
08:10 maybe harmlessly, maybe not
08:12 mason ok, thanks for that info
08:13 these circ selenium scripts should provoke some leakage...
08:44 chris mason: http://koha.pastebin.com/m7c124f9b
08:46 and
08:46 http://koha.pastebin.com/m41ad7e76
08:46 proof of concept
09:37 mason ta chris, i'll use that as a start...
09:39 chris it works and will only ever have one rebuild_zebra running at a time
09:39 maybe put a sleep in there
09:39 as it stands it will constantly check the zebraqueue table, then run rebuild_zebra if there is anything to be done
09:40 for use in production, id probably add a heartbeat to it
09:40 so that somethin can monitor it
09:41 veki is it possible to do interlibrary loans in Koha according to ISO ILL protocol?
09:43 bbl
09:44 chris heh
09:52 paul_p good morning everyone !
10:06 kf good morning paul
