02:10 CGI048 Hi, can anyone help me about this matter. Pls. I was trying to enter new record on MARC but I can't fill in tag 100 Personal Name
02:11 pianohacker CGI048: You need to turn on the BibliosAddAuthorities system preference, under the Authorities (or Cataloging, can't remember) tab
02:13 CGI048 I'm using the latest version of Koha and my first time to explore it. Anyways, thanks alot I'll try to look for it.
02:13 pianohacker No problem, good luck
02:16 CGI048 Thanks, I got it.

03:04 pianohacker Georgia, huh? How's that?
03:04 brendan haven't seen the sun all week
03:05 pianohacker Heh. Reminds me of my stay in Paris a few years ago

03:25 pianohacker Good morning, Amit
03:25 Amit hi pianohacker
03:26 heya brendan have u configure biblios.net
03:27 brendan yes a while ago
03:27 the key is getting pazpar2 and your koha-conf.xml right
03:27 Amit yes
03:28 i ask one question pazpar2 is configure on koha configuration time
03:28 because my make-koha-install gives an error
03:28 cpan module test fial
03:28 fail
03:28 pazpar2
03:29 pianohacker Good night, #koha
03:29 brendan night
03:29 pianohacker left #koha
03:29 brendan not sure -- which version of koha
03:33 indradg left #koha
03:34 Amit i m using koha via git
03:38 brendan biblios seems to not be supported anymore -- so I haven't looked at it a long time
03:39 Amit i have already configured once biblios.net with koha
03:39 but the problem due to saving records on local machine
03:39 mean to say send target list
03:40 make koha-install-symlinks KOHADIR=/opt/kohanewgit/kohaclone​/koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en KOHACGIDIR=/opt/kohanewgit/kohaclone
03:40 this runs fine
03:41 brendan hmm...  sorry amit -- bed time for me --
03:42 Amit no problem good night
03:42 brendan I guess I would start with the koha-conf.xml and go from there
03:47 Amit ok thanks

09:05 is the accents present in the imported records are encoded in UTF-8, isn't it enough to give -s option to bulkmarcimport to have them preserved ?

09:13 slef Hi all.  Has anyone hit a problem with having too many members with surnames beginning with the same letter?
09:13 |Lupin| slef: nope, sorry
09:13 slef how many members have you got with surnames beginning with the same letter?
09:14 outside has just turned into central Rome... lots of horns blaring!
09:14 |Lupin| slef: small library and so just migrating datas into Koha... we have not more than 1000 users in all...
09:14 slef I'm failing at 33000 members
09:14 |Lupin| wow
09:15 slef yep, big busy library
09:15 chris 33000 with the same name?
09:16 or 33000 in total
09:16 ?
09:16 slef 33000 with a surname starting with the same letter
09:17 DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Error writing file '/tmp/MYATZA2Q' (Errcode: 28)

09:17
09:17 chris where are you having the problem?
09:17 slef just searching for the error, but wondered if anyone had seen this
09:17 chris ahh trying to browse?
09:17 run out of sapce in /tmp ?
09:17 slef yes, but I've traced it back to C4::Members::SearchMember
09:18 maybe - but there's 64Gb free
09:18 chris error 28 is no space left on device
09:18 and /tmp isnt it its own partition?
09:18 slef which does beg the question: what is DBD::mysql trying to write?
09:19 actually, it's a symlink... duh!
09:19 checking further
09:19 |Lupin| slef: if /mp is not on its own partition, apt-get clean may help to get more free space
09:20 slef |Lupin|: relative to 64Gb, that won't be much
09:20 chris yeah and the whole db would probably fit into 64Gb 10 times
09:20 slef well, it looks like tmp is still on / but it's not completely clear
09:20 yeah, even when I had the monster sessions table, the dump was only 4Gb
09:21 what is DBD::mysql trying to write?
09:21 chris just the results of the query for sorting
09:21 its mysql doing
09:21 it
09:21 that will be the error mysql passed back to dbd:
09:21 :mysql
09:21 slef I wonder if there's some quota system going on
09:22 chris hmm that sounds like a possible suspect
09:22 slef it says no quotas
09:23 |Lupin| slef: is your / indeed full ?
09:23 slef: of is 64GB the remaining space ?
09:23 cait_laptop joined #koha
09:23 slef 64GB is the remaining space
09:24 I can try logrotating to free up some space
09:24 chris slef: in my.cnf tmpdir          = /tmp
09:24 you could change taht to somewhere else
09:25 restart mysql and see what happanes
09:25 wow typing fail tonight
09:25 slef will do - waiting for the logrotate... checking email for words of librarian wisdom
09:28 cait_laptop good morning
09:29 slef erm, no, it's not ;-)
09:29 it's not 1030 and I've just seen my third incident
09:35 |Lupin| hi cait_laptop
09:37 Amit left #koha
09:38 paul_p slef: our mail/dns/biblibre.com server has one of his RAID disk dead this morning. Seems it's the day...
09:42 slef paul_p: RAID means non-fatal, I hope
09:43 paul_p yep slef.
09:43 RAID++
09:44 (and munin +++, because we hadn't RAID on this very old server, and munin warned us 4 months ago about some suspicious things done by hda. So we upgraded to RAID, and it's not a big problem to have hda dying)

10:19 Amit: where do you work?  Anyone: is there a way of making munin read user info from the wiki?
10:20 or munin could store it anyway
10:20 Amit Slef: I am working in Nucsoft Osslabs www.osslabs.biz

10:22 slef @whatis slef
10:22 munin slef: "slef" could be MJ Ray, webmaster-developer for TTLLP software.coop
10:23 paul_p wow, in fact, either the RAM or the CPU also has a problem (random core cump in Apache, postfix, ssh...)
10:24 (RAM & CPU changes on the way... then we will probably finish with this 5years old server...)
10:24 slef owowow
10:25 we have one hardware server left I think - all else is virtual rented now
10:25 I'm not much of a hardware guy, so I could be wrong

10:46 cait_laptop hi chris
10:46 I see that @bug 1600 is yours
10:46 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/b[…]w_bug.cgi?id=1600 enhancement, P3, ---, chris@bigballofwax.co.nz, NEW, Alternate address form should offer 2 address fields
10:46 chris well its assigned to me
10:46 cait_laptop I would like to try to add address2 and country so that all addresses offer the same fields
10:46 chris havent done any work on it tho
10:47 cool, feel free to reassign it to you
10:47 cait_laptop |lupin| added the country fields lately and I thought I could try to copy what he did
10:47 not sure if I can really do it... but I will try and see how far I get
10:49 chris cool
10:49 cait_laptop just wanted to ask if you plan to work on it
10:49 davi | issn   | varchar(9)  is wrong.
10:50 It should be at least  varchar(13)
10:50 chris send a patch :)
10:53 The ISSN (International Standard Serial Number) is an internationally standardised number identifying serial publications concisely and distinctively. The ISSN consists of 8 digits, the last of which being a check digit. The letter X can also have this check function.
10:53 seems like 9 is fine
10:53 ISBN needs to be 13
10:54 EAN needs to be at least 13 too
10:56 davi EAN is not in biblioitems
10:57 chris i know, but you can represent an issn as an EAN-13
10:57 i was wondering if that was why you thought it needed 13
10:57 when the standard says 8
10:57 davi yes, it was
10:58 How to represent an ISSN ad EAN-13?
10:58 What is the conversion I have to do?
10:58 chris you'll have to go read the spec, i don't know off the top of my head
10:59 When encoded in an EAN-13 bar code, the ISSN is preceded by the digits 977 and the ISSN check-digit (the last of the 8 digits) is not encoded. A two digit price code, almost always "00", is added to the end, and finally the EAN check digit is added.
10:59 Let's say you have the number 0264-3596 as a serial publication's ISSN. The true ISSN is 0264359 (no 6 because it is the ISSN check digit). The EAN-13 number would then be 9770264359008 for normal issues. The "00" is the normal issue code and the "8" is the EAN-13 check digit). A special issue could receive a 2-digit numbers other than "00".

12:25 chris_n g'morning
12:26 collum joined #koha
12:29 owen joined #koha
12:40 jwagner Question on facets -- what controls the sorting and display order of the sidebar facets in OPAC and staff mode?  Is there any way to tell Koha to always display facets in a particular order (like Authors, Topics, then Series) and to sort the entries under each facet?  I'm looking at code in Koha.pm and Search.pm, but I can't see anything useful.  The OPAC template does have them in an order, but that's not the order they display in.
12:56 anasha left #koha
12:56 gmcharlt jwagner: in a slightly obscure fashion
12:56 it's alphabetical order
12:57 by the link_value code
12:57 in the facet type loop returned by C4::Koha::getFacets()
12:57 which boils down to the following hard-coded order
13:00 jwagner: no, sorry, scratch that
13:00 it seems to actually be topics first
13:00 *libraries* first, rather
13:00 followed by the other facets types
13:01 in order of increasing number of facet terms displayed
13:01 so if 3 topic facets are found in the result set
13:01 and 5 place
13:01 the topic facets will be displayed before the place facets
13:01 in other words, the order changes based on the search results
13:02 jwagner Hmm.  I'm seeing Series always display first, followed by Authors, followed by Places (if any), followed by Topics.  That's been consistent.  One of my sites would like to force them to always display in a specified order.
13:03 gmcharlt right, but that can happen by accident
13:03 jwagner Series comes first even if there are only 2 entries (and no "more" link)
13:03 gmcharlt there will normally be fewer series facets than any other type
13:03 jwagner OK, can I control the display order?  Without screwing up too many things?
13:03 gmcharlt jwagner: shoot - this code is a mess
13:04 jwagner I could have told you that :-)
13:04 gmcharlt compare http://opac1.koha.librarypolic[…]pac-search.pl?q=a vs. http://opac1.koha.librarypolic[…]ac-search.pl?q=bd
13:04 jwagner And they'd REALLY like to have the entries in each facet sorted alpha
13:04 gmcharlt so in fact what I just told you about the ordering is wrong
13:05 jwagner: I'll poke at it a bit later, but I think the best thing to do is write up a couple bugs
13:05 one for ordering of the facet types
13:05 one for controlling the order of the facets within each type
13:05 jwagner OK, will do.  I think it's going to take someone who understands the code better than I do to fix it.  Thanks.
13:06 gmcharlt I can understand desire to sort facets in alpha order
13:06 but riddle your customer this - what happens if the most common facets of a type come later in to alphabet and thus get hidden under the 'show more' link
13:07 it's not explicitly indicated, but the order of facets within a type
13:07 is decreasing frequency
13:07 jwagner So the most frequent author, place, etc. is first in the list for that facet?
13:08 gmcharlt right
13:08 jwagner OK, I'll tell them that; it might affect what they want to do.
13:08 gmcharlt there's a facet count availble in the template
13:08 that you could expose
13:09 although it could be confusing
13:09 since the facets are computed *only* for the displayed records
13:10 not for the entire results list
13:10 brendan left #koha
13:10 gmcharlt so if you go from page to page
13:10 jwagner So the count would only be for the current page?
13:10 gmcharlt in a long search results list
13:10 you'll see the facets changing
13:10 jwagner: right
13:10 which is probably why the count isn't displayed by default
13:11 jwagner That is a problem, then, that's bigger than the sort order.  My assumption would be when I do a search and see facets that clicking a particular facet (like topic) would apply and filter against the -entire- search results, not just the current page.
13:11 nicomo jwagner: absolutely
13:12 owen It applies the filter against the search results, it just doesn't show you an accurate count for the whole result set
13:12 gmcharlt nicomo, jwagner: that's actually the motivation for switching to using Zebra's built-in facet generation
13:12 jwagner Whew.  That's better, was about to panic.
13:12 nicomo yes
13:12 jwagner: see http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/b[…]w_bug.cgi?id=3154
13:12 gmcharlt as owen says, the filtering is against the entire result set
13:12 munin 04Bug 3154: major, P5, ---, henridamien@koha-fr.org, NEW, OPAC Search refining by facets is wrong
13:13 gmcharlt but computing the list of facets is wrong
13:13 * gmcharlt idly wonders if any Real Live Patron (tm) has ever noticed
13:14 js joined #koha
13:14 nicomo gmcharlt: i wondered too, and in amazement too: how can they not see it!
13:14 jwagner Well, a Real Live Admin did notice :-)
13:14 nicomo but in fact it does seem they do not
13:16 jwagner There is a bug report Bug 2614 for sorting the facets in alpha order; judging by the comment, the intent is to sort the contents of each facet (i.e., authors should be in alpha order in the Authors facet).
13:16 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/b[…]w_bug.cgi?id=2614 enhancement, P3, ---, jmf@liblime.com, NEW, Facets in Alpha Order
13:17 library joined #koha
13:17 owen Are they now sorted by frequency according to the count we can't see?
13:17 gmcharlt owen: yes
13:18 owen Wow, what a mess. So sorting in that order would make sense if we could see the count, but we can't see the count because the count is inaccurate
13:19 jwagner So there seem to be three separate issues -- 1. control the order in which the facet categories display (i.e., always Author, Topic, Series or whatever).  2. if wanted, sort the contents of each facet alphabetically (might need to be a site preference).  3. give an accurate count next to each entry that applies to the whole results set, not just the first page.  Is that right?
13:20 gmcharlt right
13:20 brendan joined #koha
13:20 owen 4. A pony.
13:20 jwagner 5. A vacation :-)
13:21 owen You'll need 5 after 1-3, but you'll want to bring 4 with you on 5.
13:21 jwagner Not on a cruise ship....
13:26 library my machine is 192.168.1.6 and I can get OPAC, but I cannot get Koha admin part. How to enter it?
13:26 jwagner OK, a tangentially related question, at least it came up first while looking at facets.  For a multi-library system, with items belonging to several branches, what would cause both the facet for a branch name and the advanced search limit by library to fail?  That is, limiting the facet to a branch and limiting advanced search to a branch both come back and say no results found for branchname?
13:27 gmcharlt possibly bibs and index getting out of sync
13:27 library: depends on how you configured it.  you can try http://192.168.1.6:8080
13:28 jwagner I wondered about that, so I rebuilt the indexes last night -- no help.
13:29 Still can't search either staff or OPAC for any branches but the main one.
13:30 library gmcharlt: I just get : It works when I type that. I have in koha-httpd OPAC and Intranet settings. in INtranet settings is 192.168.1.6:8080 but in OPAC is 192.168.1.6:80
13:31 gmcharlt: If i Put in OPAC part that it is 127.0.0.1:80 it works OK.
13:32 bu I do no thave OPAC part which I do not need anyway
13:35 bbl
13:35 exit
13:35 library left #koha
13:40 jwagner gmcharlt, I think I just figured out my branch search problem.  This is a test system and we took data that a site had migrated itself.  I'm seeing permanent location as the main branch, but current location as the other branches.  The other branches are showing in the facets.  Would that account for it?
13:48 Seems to have.  I edited one of the items to be permanent location of one of the branches, and the facet & advanced search worked fine then.
13:50 gmcharlt jwagner: good catch
13:53 jwagner When we do their proper data load, this shouldn't be an issue.  But it sure was puzzling for a while....
13:54 Colin joined #koha
13:55 owen Good grief holds and transfers are so messed up
13:55 I'm at the point where I don't feel I can tell my staff anything other than, "it's messed up, get used to it."
13:57 jwagner I'll drink to that, owen....
13:57 owen A book was on hold at PPL. Scanned, checked in, hold confirmed. Status of the book wasn't changed to waiting.
13:59 Looking at another hold, the person who is #1 on the list placed their hold a week *after* the person who is #2 on the list
14:03 The timestamp of the #2 hold is later than the timestamp of the #1 hold. I wonder if this indicates someone changed the priority?
14:04 gmcharlt owen: most likely
14:05 owen if that was the case wouldn't #1 and #2 have the same timestamp, because both would have changed at the same time?
14:11 gmcharlt owen: there be one of the dragons, I think
14:14 owen And not the friendly, telepathic, fly-me-to-work kind I suspect.
14:14 gmcharlt not a puff to be found, I'm sure

14:24 Next you'll be telling me that "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" isn't about a girl who can fly and distributes gemstones to worthy children around the world.
14:24 slef owen: no more than candygirl does.

14:49 owen That's why I can't work the circ desk anymore. They only allow old ladies with their hair in a bun going "Shhhh!!!!"

15:54 cait_laptop chris here?
15:55 pianohacker Probably not until later, I think it's about 4:00 AM there
15:55 Anything we can help you with?
15:56 cait_laptop hm I think I just found out what is wrong
15:57 working on my first patch and wanted to ask something about git, but I think I got it. thy pianohacker
15:57 pianohacker Always happy to help by not helping
15:57 cait_laptop :)
16:02 pianohacker: ok, I have a question :)
16:02 I m working at my first patch, adding B_address2 and altcontactcountry to borrowers, so that all addresses offer the same fields
16:03 my database update worked fine, but I found a typo in a label
16:04 can I include this change in the patch I created or must I create a new patch now?
16:05 pianohacker You'll have to make a new patch, but you won't need two of them
16:06 Just make the change, run git commit --amend, then git format-patch ^HEAD again
16:06 cait_laptop ah
16:06 I used git format-patch origin  - will this work two or is it completely wrong?
16:06 two = too
16:07 pianohacker That works too
16:07 All you're saying is, make a patch for all changes since this point
16:07 cait_laptop ah thx, I m really new to git
16:07 I will try, thank you pianohacker
16:07 pianohacker You'll get used to it. It'll still give you trouble, you just won't mind as much
16:07 np

16:26 js__ left #koha
16:26 cait_laptop pianohacker: worked great - thx again!
16:27 owen That doesn't mean things haven't been submitted, it just means things haven't been approved.
16:29 paul_p schuster: or it's in a specific branch (look closely, you'll see a BibLibre, and a labels_recon branch (bottom of home page)

17:19 paul_p pianohacker: git rebase -i could help you merging commits
17:19 bye US & other ppl ! see you on monday !
17:19 pianohacker bye, paul_p
17:19 wizzyre have a good weekend paul_p
17:20 pianohacker wizzyre = wizzyreal?
17:20 slef oops - think I just booked a job right before the koha foundation IRC meeting, so I might still be travelling when it happens.
17:22 time to stress-test mobile internet again
17:22 wizzyre one and the sam
17:22 with missing ending e's
17:24 cait_laptop owen: here?
17:24 owen Yes
17:25 slef: Has the koha foundation IRC meeting been announced?
17:25 nicomo left #koha
17:25 cait_laptop hi, I wrote a patch for bug 1600 and bug 3464 adding new fields to borrowers
17:25 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/b[…]w_bug.cgi?id=1600 enhancement, P3, ---, chris@bigballofwax.co.nz, NEW, Alternate address form should offer 2 address fields
17:25 04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/b[…]w_bug.cgi?id=3464 enhancement, P5, ---, Sebastien.Hinderer@snv.jussieu.fr, RESOLVED FIXED, borrowers table should contain country information for libraries with international patron populations
17:25 slef owen: no idea.  Was I meant to be announcing it?
17:26 nicomo joined #koha
17:26 cait_laptop I noticed that alternate contact has no lines and labels and no separate edit button
17:26 owen slef: I just recalled someone saying "we should announce it" but then that was the last of it
17:26 slef mmmm, can I have the fix for bug 3464 please cait_laptop?  Sounds useful
17:26 cait_laptop is there a reason for that or is it ok to add these things?
17:27 slef owen: TEAM = Toll, Ein Anderes Macht's (excuse misspelling) again
17:27 cait_laptop I will send it soon - its my first patch, I want to test a little more before sending it
17:27 slef ok
17:27 cait_laptop Im glad that I came that far :)
17:28 slef I can test applying it to our repo before you send, if you want... if not, nm
17:28 cait_laptop slef: 3463 is already done, only altcontact... had no country field
17:28 slef owen: which translates as Great! Someone else will do it.
17:29 biab
17:29 cait_laptop Im working on an old laptop, so no public repo, shall I send you the file?

17:30 pianohacker cait_laptop: Most likely, yes
17:30 cait_laptop pianohacker: yes to what?
17:30 schuster Wizzyrea where'd ya go?
17:30 pianohacker Sending him the file :)
17:30 cait_laptop sorry, my family is setting the table around me,
17:31 pianohacker See ya, have a good dinner
17:31 cait_laptop thx
17:32 owen: do you think this changes to display of alternate address on moremember.pl are ok?
17:33 owen cait_laptop: It sounds like what you're seeing is the same as in the latest version
17:34 cait_laptop owen: sorry, I dont understand, is display of alternate addres already fixed?
17:34 owen Sorry, I misunderstood. I thought you were saying that it was a result of your patch.
17:35 I don't have any objection if you want to change that to match the other sections
17:36 cait_laptop owen: thx, will send patch soon. feature freeze is on end of sunday?
17:36 owen Yes
17:37 cait_laptop dinner now :)

18:37 Sorry, my connection's flaking out, meant to use /ping
18:37 gmcharlt pianohacker: sorry for disappearing
18:37 back now
18:37 pianohacker Not a problem, you're on the road, right?
18:37 gmcharlt pianohacker: no, just on phone calls, which is worse ;)
18:38 pianohacker Heh
18:38 gmcharlt as paul_p suggests, rebase -i so that the commits can be brought down into more coherent sets would be nice
18:38 but ultimately the end result I want is a branch that you send me a pull request for
18:38 that is a fast forward from head
18:39 and, if at all possible, that includes *only* the new syspref stuff
18:39 i.e., not too many unrelated bugfixes
18:39 pianohacker gmcharlt: The last part is easy; the new prefs work is isolated
18:40 wizzyrea (it's so fun to watch this stuff come together)
18:41 pianohacker Heh. I was scrambling there for a while, because despite personally writing on the meeting notes that the feature freeze was Sunday, I thought it was today
18:41 wajasu i set up koha 3.0.3 on a box.  I imported someone's marc21 data that they had worked on, via the web import. When i edit and then save, there is an error about not being able to append an authority value.
18:41 hedgesst left #koha
18:42 wajasu do i need to put at least one authority value in something like the MARC21 850 field?
18:43 I'm grasping at straws here, because I'm not at the system.
18:44 hdl_laptop chris around ?

18:46 hdl_laptop wajasu: you can disable creation of authorities when adding biblios

18:46 munin hdl_laptop: I've exhausted my database of quotes
18:47 wizzyrea hdl_laptop: I think it's @later tell
18:47 hdl_laptop munin, purge quotes
18:47 munin hdl_laptop: I'll give you the answer just as soon as RDA is ready
18:47 hdl_laptop @later tell chris I have some more patches on 3.0.x
18:47 munin hdl_laptop: The operation succeeded.
18:47 wizzyrea :D
18:47 hdl_laptop thx wizzyrea ;)
