| 00:02 | nelson joined #koha | |
| 00:03 | nelson | Hey everyone |
| 00:03 | pianohackr|work | Hello |
| 00:03 | nelson | I am looking for a little help with installing koha - I've gotten all the way to logging into the staff back-end for the first time |
| 00:03 | owen joined #koha | |
| 00:03 | nelson | The trouble is, I get a blank webpage |
| 00:04 | Any help would be GREATLY appreciated | |
| 00:04 | pianohackr|work | Hmm. Have you checked the error log? |
| 00:04 | nelson | I have - and it is complaining of not being to query a bunch of DB tables - which makes sense because I haven't gotten to that part in the install |
| 00:04 | Am I supposed to install the DB tables prior to logging in for the first time? The guide I followed says no | |
| 00:05 | pianohackr|work | No, you shouldn't have to |
| 00:05 | What page is in your browser's address bar? | |
| 00:05 | It should have redirected you to the installer | |
| 00:06 | nelson | I point my browser to http://localhost:8080 which redirects me to http://localhost:8080/cgi-bin/[…]taller/install.pl |
| 00:06 | pianohackr|work | That's correct |
| 00:06 | Which kind of install did you do? standard? | |
| 00:06 | nelson | standard |
| 00:07 | pianohackr|work | Could you give me a link to the guide you're following? Also, does anything else show up in the error log besides the missing table complaints? |
| 00:08 | nelson | Sure, one second |
| 00:08 | pianohackr|work | thanks |
| 00:08 | nelson | I am running CentOS 5 so I am following : http://www.dpl.gov.in/centos5-koha3.html |
| 00:09 | (Also note that I elected not to install Yaz/Zebra and made sure all Perl pre-reqs were installed) | |
| 00:10 | owen | Hi pianohackr|work |
| 00:10 | pianohackr|work | Hi, owen |
| 00:10 | How's your weekend going? | |
| 00:10 | owen | So far so good |
| 00:10 | I got a query from someone from vokal, a question about their opac | |
| 00:11 | nelson | These are the only-non DB related errors |
| 00:11 | [Sat Sep 19 19:39:54 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] built-in find_file: can't find file /usr/intranet/templates/prog/en/modules/installer/auth.tmpl [Sat Sep 19 19:39:54 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] with path = [ [Sat Sep 19 19:39:54 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] '/usr/intranet/templates/prog/en/includes' [Sat Sep 19 19:39:54 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] ] [Sat Sep 19 19:39:54 2009] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] [Sat | |
| 00:11 | pianohackr|work | Ahh, there we go |
| 00:11 | Where did you install koha to? | |
| 00:11 | nelson | \etc\koha and \usr\share\koha |
| 00:12 | It looks like I have a bad install of HTML::Template::Pro? | |
| 00:12 | pianohackr|work | Nope, htp is fine |
| 00:12 | Just need to change your koha-conf.xml a bit | |
| 00:12 | nelson | Alrighty :) |
| 00:12 | pianohackr|work | Near the bottom, there's two entries for opachtdocs and intrahtdocs |
| 00:13 | nelson | Yep |
| 00:13 | <opachtdocs>/usr/opac/templates</opachtdocs> <intrahtdocs>/usr/intranet/templates</intrahtdocs> | |
| 00:13 | pianohackr|work | You need to make sure that those point to the directories in /usr/share/koha where the templates for the opac and intranet live |
| 00:13 | nelson | Ahhh Ok |
| 00:13 | I'll give that a try and report back, thank you | |
| 00:14 | pianohackr|work | owen: But they don't use community Koha; how could you possibly help them? It's just out of your hands |
| 00:15 | owen | :) |
| 00:15 | One of their installs is showing no facets on the search results page | |
| 00:15 | I'm not sure if it's a template-mod problem or if there could be something else | |
| 00:16 | Now that I look again I suspect a template mod... If they'd switched on NoZebra by mistake their searching would break wouldn't it? | |
| 00:17 | pianohackr|work | Yup |
| 00:17 | owen | I wish I'd gotten to them before they started changing templates :( |
| 00:18 | pianohackr|work | Blurgh, no kidding. Are they at least using git? |
| 00:18 | owen | Don't know. If they are they're not publicising the fact. |
| 00:19 | It sounds like they're go-getters with their hearts in the right place and they need some guidance | |
| 00:20 | nelson | Alright I'm sorry to say that that did not work :( |
| 00:20 | To get the intranet function to work, I changed the line to <intrahtdocs>/usr/share/koha/intranet/intranet-tmpl</intrahtdocs> | |
| 00:21 | Oh wait | |
| 00:21 | That was mildly stupid of me, I forgot the htdocs in the directory tree :P Now it works | |
| 00:22 | pianohackr|work | Cool |
| 00:22 | nelson | Thank you for your help, pianohackr :) |
| 00:22 | pianohackr|work | owen: I hope so. Getting these apparently much-desired consortia features into open-source Koha from any vendor seems to be like pulling teeth |
| 00:22 | nelson: Not a problem | |
| 00:23 | Let us know if you need anything else | |
| 00:23 | nelson | Will do - have a good night |
| 00:23 | nelson left #koha | |
| 00:31 | owen | Koha needs a league of superheros to pile into an invisible jet and race to any library considering modifying their template |
| 00:32 | pianohackr|work | Not all of us are so willing to abuse jQuery, owen ;) |
| 00:33 | But yeah, it can make maintenance difficult even if you have git and familiarity with Koha's innards | |
| 00:33 | owen | It's not abuse if jQuery is willing ;) |
| 00:33 | pianohackr|work | Gah |
| 00:35 | owen | Anyway, no more Saturday night Koha for me. Back to goofing off. |
| 00:35 | pianohackr|work | Heh |
| 00:35 | owen left #koha | |
| 00:35 | pianohackr|work | I'd better kick off too, bye all |

| 20:53 | Ropuch | Hello all |
| 20:53 | chris | hi Ropuch, chris_n^2 and brendan |
| 20:54 | chris_n^2 | hi Ropuch |
| 20:54 | brendan | afternoon Ropuch chris |
| 20:54 | chris - I went to an excellent Mets game yesterday | |
| 20:54 | chris | cool :) |
| 20:57 | brendan | *sigh* |

| 20:59 | chris | ahh cool |
| 20:59 | brendan | yup -- <excited> |
| 21:46 | Ropuch | Hm, where exactly are marc subfields desc stored? I can see them in marc_subfield_structure.libopac, but after changing some 245's subfields values in table remains the same |
| 21:47 | I've changed them via Adm>MARC Framework | |
| 21:58 | chris_n^2 | chris about? |
| 21:59 | Ropuch: sorry I'm not up to speed on that area of things | |
| 21:59 | Ropuch | chris_n^2: no problem, I'm just curious [; |
| 22:00 | Guess I'll figure that out tommorow | |
| 22:00 | Good night | |
| 22:00 | chris | yep whats up chris_n^2 ? |
| 22:01 | chris_n^2 | I think I found my answer.... I was looking at embedding binary data in xml |
| 22:01 | chris | ahh |
| 22:02 | chris_n^2 | looks possible, but how difficult remains to be seen |
| 22:02 | chris | heh yep |
| 22:09 | chris_n^2 | actually looks to be a bad idea atm due to potential encoding issues |
| 22:09 | * chris_n^2 | throws that idea out |
| 22:28 | brendan | chris -- when is kohacon10 |
| 22:29 | chris | hasnt been decided yet |
