| 00:15 | Genji | ah.. so doing 'not jn=55,435,34,234' is the wrong way? each journal number has to have its on jn=? |

| 03:14 | CGI169 | hey guys |
| 03:14 | pianohacker joined #koha | |
| 03:14 | pianohacker | Good evening |
| 03:14 | CGI169 | where are yall from |
| 03:14 | lol im like near russia right now | |
| 03:15 | and im outside | |
| 03:15 | its freezing | |
| 03:15 | thank goodness i found a chatroom | |
| 03:15 | i cant access anything | |
| 03:15 | it's all blocked | |
| 03:16 | genji-laptop | chris: Liblime acquired the koha division of Katipo..... yet you are not in liblime.... who have they actually got that was in katipo? |
| 03:16 | chris | no one |
| 03:16 | we all left | |
| 03:16 | as have most of their staff | |
| 03:16 | genji-laptop | chris: ...... acquisition fail then huh? |
| 03:16 | CGI169 | what is this room about |
| 03:17 | chris | genji-laptop: yeah fundamentally difference philosophies on what FLOSS is about |
| 03:17 | different even | |
| 03:17 | pianohacker | CGI169: http://www.koha.org/, open source library management software |
| 03:17 | CGI169: If you have to ask, it'll probably bore you ;) | |
| 03:17 | CGI169 | oh ok |
| 03:17 | no it wont | |
| 03:18 | genji-laptop | CGI169: Welcome to #koha. Its a support channel for Koha.... the Open-source intergrated library system. issues, returns, renewals, patron details, overdue accounts, acquisitions.... Its all here. |
| 03:18 | CGI169 | oh i see lol |
| 03:18 | im in the military | |
| 03:18 | and i was just looking for something to do | |
| 03:18 | genji-laptop | the russian military? |
| 03:19 | CGI169 | no |
| 03:19 | im just located near russia | |
| 03:19 | genji-laptop | ah.. okay. |
| 03:19 | CGI169 | US |
| 03:19 | * genji-laptop | ummms.... "Im not sure your supposed to be giving away your position, soldier." |
| 03:19 | CGI169 | its ok |
| 03:20 | it's a known location | |
| 03:20 | genji-laptop | uhhuh...... do you have a bbc news article referencing your div's deployment? |
| 03:20 | CGI169 | yes |
| 03:21 | genji-laptop | ah okay then. |
| 03:21 | CGI169 | im jus wondering if obama has made any decision regarding the increase in troops |
| 03:22 | * chris | has no idea, im in NZ so dont follow the US military that much |
| 03:22 | * CGI169 | didnt know lol |
| 03:22 | CGI169 | i used to go on mirc back in the day |
| 03:23 | @ dalnet | |
| 03:23 | munin | CGI169: Error: "dalnet" is not a valid command. |
| 03:23 | CGI169 | ? |
| 03:23 | genji-laptop | munin = bot |
| 03:23 | munin | genji-laptop: Error: "=" is not a valid command. |
| 03:23 | CGI169 | lol |
| 03:24 | alright | |
| 03:24 | genji-laptop | CGI169: also be aware that this channel is being logged. don't say anything that you don't want made permanantly available. |
| 03:24 | CGI169 | i know |
| 03:24 | i havent said anything important | |
| 03:25 | Amit joined #koha | |
| 03:25 | Amit | heya brendan, chris |
| 03:25 | CGI169 | hi amit |
| 03:25 | Amit | hi CGI169 |
| 03:25 | CGI169 | where are u from |
| 03:26 | Amit | I am from India u? |
| 03:29 | genji-laptop | chris: so... if they failed... why don't they admit it, and sell it all back to katipo, or to a Koha foundation .... which the community is already setting up? |
| 03:29 | CGI169 left #koha | |
| 03:30 | chris | im not sure they think they failed |
| 03:30 | genji-laptop | So, they succeeded.. but not in the way the community hoped, eh? |
| 03:31 | chris | well i dont think they succeeded |
| 03:31 | im just saying i cant speak for what they think | |
| 03:31 | genji-laptop | ahh. |
| 03:31 | chris | they certainly have succeeded in backing themselves into a corner |
| 03:32 | genji-laptop | LEF = vendor lock in? |
| 03:32 | err.. LEK. | |
| 03:33 | chris | well considering you can only get it from one vendor, then yep |
| 03:33 | genji-laptop | which is contary to the concept of koha..... funnily enough, they say 'no vendor lock in' on their ... 'our' website. |
| 03:34 | chris | *nod* |
| 03:34 | pianohacker | Your _data_ might theoretically not be locked in |
| 03:34 | But with normal koha, you could move to a version hosted by yourself or a different vendor, and expect the same features to be available | |
| 03:34 | LEK means, in effect, feature lock-in | |
| 03:34 | chris | yep |
| 03:34 | and database changes | |
| 03:35 | genji-laptop | you 'could' get someone else to look at your problems. Most likely liblime because no one else would have the knowledge to fix things, right? |
| 03:35 | chris | no one else has access to the code |
| 03:35 | pianohacker | Well, we can offer general advice, based on guesses on what has changed |
| 03:35 | genji-laptop | ... isn't that against the GPL? |
| 03:35 | chris | you can only get liblime to do it, its run as SaaS, they dont actually have access |
| 03:35 | no | |
| 03:35 | not against the letter of GPLv2 | |
| 03:35 | genji-laptop | ah... System as a service...... |
| 03:35 | chris | since they haven't distributed it |
| 03:36 | genji-laptop | all hosted on their machines.. |
| 03:36 | chris | definitely against the spirit of it |
| 03:36 | pianohacker | it's against the Affero GPL, but I think that was regarded by most as a step too far in the other direction |
| 03:36 | chris | *nod* |
| 03:36 | pianohacker | (and would be impossible to do retroactively) |
| 03:36 | genji-laptop | And if liblimes upstream internet provider goes down... how many lib's lose access to their intranet? |
| 03:36 | chris | thats the problem with cloud services |
| 03:37 | pianohacker | yup |
| 03:37 | but of course that never happens™ | |
| 03:37 | genji-laptop | Ballpark figure, for postarity... how many? |
| 03:37 | pianohacker | ... libraries hosted on lek? |
| 03:37 | * genji-laptop | nods. |
| 03:38 | chris | no idea |
| 03:38 | pianohacker | Dunno. From press release volume, at least ten groups/libraries (including the ASCC consortium here in colorado, which has a fair amount of libraries) |
| 03:42 | genji-laptop | anyway, got to go now. working on getting a cisco ip phone logged into asterisk. Thanks for the help and conversation, all. |
| 03:45 | pianohacker | genji-laptop: glad to talk, have a good evening and good luck with the phone |

| 09:30 | Ropuch | Guten Morgen, kf [; |
| 09:31 | kf | hi Ropuch :) |
| 09:35 | Genji | kf: Developer of Koha for a Saudi Arabian medical journal private library. |
| 09:38 | so, nitty gritty coding level. | |
| 09:39 | worse than usual. its koha 3.0 code. not 3.04 or anything like that. | |
| 09:41 | hdl_laptop | Genji: are you sticking to 3.0 because you worked much on this release ? |
| 09:44 | Genji | The saudi arabian library did work, making it truely Arabic compliant. (volume grammer etc, skip words like 'to' .. the arabic equivilent, ) and they are afraid of loosing their mods. That and they want features right now. They can't really afford time or $ on bringing their code up to current stable. |

| 11:45 | magnusenger | hm, i'm having some zebra weirdness... i have a file with 400k marc records, and bulkmarcimport'ed 1000 records from it into a virtual machine on my desktop with the -n switch, then did rebuild_zebra. A search for "oslo" gave 350 hits. |
| 11:45 | Then I imported 10.000 records and did rebuild_zebra: http://blogg.enger.priv.no/wp-[…]rebuild_zebra.png - then a search for "oslo" only gave 85 hits, but the number is increasing steadily | |
| 11:46 | Looks like rebuild_zebra didn't actually do much the last time, and now zebraqueue_demon is slowly indexing the records? | |
| 11:47 | from what rebuild_zebra says in the screen dump i thought running it was a success, exept for one record - could that one record have messed it all up? | |
| 11:57 | hdl_laptop | yes |
| 11:58 | if there is a failure on one record, indexing doesnot go further | |
| 11:59 | magnusenger | A ha, so when it says "Records: 10000 i/u/d 9999/1/0" that means failure? |
| 12:00 | To my uneducated eye it looks like the error message could have been a bit less discreet... ;-) | |
| 12:01 | hdl_laptop | no. |
| 12:02 | here it says : 9999 inserted | |
| 12:02 | 1 updated | |
| 12:02 | 0 deleted | |
| 12:03 | Amit_G left #koha | |
| 12:04 | magnusenger | hm, not sure i quite understand that, then... |
| 12:04 | Shouldn't the 9999 inserted records be searchable? | |
| 12:05 | hdl_laptop | yes they should |
| 12:07 | magnusenger | ah, but they are not. Indexing 1K records gives more hits for "oslo" than indexing 10K records... |
| 12:08 | nengard joined #koha | |
| 12:10 | magnusenger | ...initially, but the number is increasing slowly each time i do the search |

| 14:24 | So great to have her around... nengard... ;) | |
| 14:24 | owen | Hi nengard, I've got a question about the Koha Facebook page |
| 14:25 | I just got a tweet from the kohails account pointing to this page: http://www.facebook.com/note.p[…]32171335&comments | |
| 14:25 | (yeah I know it's in another language) | |
| 14:25 | But the thing is...there's no URL or anything | |
| 14:26 | It's confusing even for posts in English! | |
| 14:26 | nengard | hmmm - hang on |
| 14:26 | owen - are you referring to the most recent tweet : http://twitter.com/kohails | |
| 14:27 | if so it's an update to the wiki - I pull the wiki RSS feed in and that's the link it generates - is there a better feed to pull in? I found it confusing at first too - but this way you're taking to the page that lists what has changed | |
| 14:27 | owen | Sorry, I'm getting my social media updates mixed up |
| 14:28 | I guess it was a Facebook notification, because the link I followed took me to the Facebook page above | |
| 14:29 | The "Koha Integrated Library System's Notes" page on Facebook. | |
| 14:30 | Oh wait, now I see it | |
| 14:30 | There's a "View Original Post" link. That's what I wasn't seeing. | |
| 14:30 | Never mind! | |
| 14:39 | nengard | :) |
| 14:40 | no prob - and you're right - the same content is sent to Facebook & to Twitter | |
| 14:40 | I use the Yahoo! Pipe to feed them all | |

| 14:44 | Melanie joined #koha | |
| 14:45 | Melanie | Hi. Does anyone use Amazon.com for the book jackets/reviews? Our reviews don't seem show up. |
| 14:45 | hdl_laptop | which version are you using ? |
| 14:45 | Melanie | 3.01.00.032 |
| 14:47 | Colin | are you seeing none at all or just very rare ones? |
| 14:48 | owen | Melanie: I think Amazon content is broken for all LibLime customers who haven't been migrated to LEK |
| 14:49 | We're on the same version (last updated sometime in June) | |
| 14:50 | jdavidb | "it's a *feature*!" :P |
| 14:53 | nengard | LOL |
| 14:53 | jdavidb is a trouble maker - but he's a funny trouble maker :) hehe | |
| 14:54 | anyway - Melanie - I believe biblibre fixed that issue with Amazon Reviews with a patch that is available in the most recent version of Koha | |
| 14:54 | and will obviously be in 3.2 | |
| 14:56 | bebbi joined #koha | |
| 14:57 | hdl_laptop | 3.0.4_fixed and 3.0.5 already integrates those things |
| 14:57 | paul_p | Melanie: 3.0.5 will be released soon, don't try to get it now ;-) |
| 14:58 | owen | Melanie is a LibLime hosted customer, so it's not up to her ;) |
| 14:58 | paul_p | Melanie: LL customers with official Koha are still with 3.0.2 (dunno the reason, except to try to convince ppl to move to LEK) |
| 15:02 | gmcharlt_ left #koha | |
| 15:02 | gmcharlt joined #koha | |
| 15:03 | owen | In LibLime's defense (gasp!), their goal is to get all their customers on the same version. I just disagree about which version that should be. |
| 15:04 | I sympathize with their desire to keep things simple by keeping their customers on the same version. I imagine other support companies face the same challenge. | |
| 15:05 | Colin | I think every vendor's tried and all have failed |
| 15:05 | davi left #koha | |
| 15:05 | jwagner | Certainly one of the issues I have is that apart from the actual codebase various customers want individual screen changes ranging from the very simple to the very complex. |
| 15:06 | owen | jwagner: And you don't just say no? :) |
| 15:06 | paul_p | jwagner: in this case we say: "OK, but you won't be in standard koha, and that will cost €X to maintain" ( X being BIG ;-) ) |
| 15:07 | jwagner | We try to accomodate where possible. (But I have been known to say NO! to a few things.) I need to go back and see if any of them can be handled through jquery, but there will still be some local template changes to merge with whatever the baseline code is. |
| 15:07 | paul_p | it's better than just say "no", and our customers understand quickly the caveat |
| 15:07 | Colin | So many customers seem to interpret a no as yes and its my top priority |
| 15:08 | jwagner | Amazing how customers have selective hearing problems like that :-) |
| 15:08 | paul_p | Colin: lol... |
| 15:08 | * jdavidb | isn't saying *nuffin* about certain customers from New Jersey... |
| 15:08 | paul_p | sometime, we also say : "ohhh... it could be a good idea, but, well, it's too frenchy, and the community will never accept that" |
| 15:09 | ( a trick you can't use ;-) ) | |
| 15:09 | jwagner | A lot of the fiddly patches I've sent out for display changes are stuff that customers have asked for. If more than one asks for the same thing, I figure it's worth doing as a patch. |
| 15:09 | paul_p | (you could try "it's too US, the frenchies won't like that", but i'm not sure it will work...) |
| 15:09 | jwagner | paul_p, but we could say "it's too Yank!" :-) |

| 15:11 | Aber da warst du nicht online hier im Chat ... | |
| 15:11 | paul_p | hey, fun, I can still understand a few german ;-) |

| 15:12 | kf | bebbi: um was geht es? hatte gerade noch ein kurzes Meeting |
| 15:13 | owen | paul_p: It was almost as long ago that I studied French |
| 15:14 | Melanie | thanks for the info. |
| 15:15 | nengard | sorry we weren't of more help :( |
| 15:15 | paul_p | Melanie: Hélas, i'm afraid we will have to write that more and more ( LEK is not Koha ) :'(((( |
| 15:15 | bebbi | Also: ich habe XP und will koha installieren. Die letzte windows Version ist schon etwas �lter, weil es wohl Portierungsprobleme gibt. Wir hatten hier im Chat dann soweit �berelgt, das dei einzige sinnvolle M�glichkeit h�chstens sein k�nnte eine virtuele maschine zu installieren und das Image von koha als Laufwerk da einzubinden *sowas noch nie gemacht hab* (Einen Server habe ich nicht zur Verf�gung). Aber die Mitdiskutanten war |
| 15:15 | en der Meinung, ich solle dich noch mal fragen ... ich will die aktuelle Version halt vor allem auch deswegen, weil es da ja die deutsche Benutzeroberfl�che gibt ... | |
| 15:16 | Melanie | yea..... |
| 15:17 | kf | bebbi: soweit ich weiss war die letzte lauffähige version unter windows 2.2.0 |
| 15:17 | 2.2.9 | |
| 15:18 | bebbi | Paul_p: Seven years and a half ago i had my last english lesson at school and i was'nt good ... To iinterpret a text is even in German nothink for me ... :-( |

| 15:21 | bebbi | Paul_p: i don't know so much words ... and - I think so - the problem ist, that you doesn't learn to talk in reality outside the school ... |
| 15:21 | jdavidb | bebbi, I can understand you very well. :) |
| 15:22 | (And I don't have any other languages, besides English.) | |
| 15:22 | jwagner | jdavidb, that's not true. You speak Texan! |
| 15:22 | kf | :) |
| 15:22 | jdavidb | harrrumph! |
| 15:23 | Nate | and a good morning to everyone! |
| 15:24 | jwagner | heh, heh |
| 15:24 | paul_p | mine was quite good, thanks Nate ;-) |
| 15:24 | kf | good morning Nate |
| 15:24 | bebbi: sometimes I think everybody here knows at least a little German | |
| 15:25 | jwagner | I had about a year's worth of German in college, but I've forgotten most of it. Ich spreche nur ein bischen Deutsch... |
| 15:25 | kf | jwagner: which is a perfect German sentence :) |
| 15:26 | jwagner | I think I'm missing some diacritics, and I'm not sure about the spelling, but it gets the meaning across.... |
| 15:28 | I learned just enough German to travel in Germany without being totally lost if I needed directions or help. | |

| 15:38 | Jdavidb: I had to (It's the right past to must, or?) leard alidle bit of latin and old-greek and old-hebrew - but it's "f�r die Tonne" we say in Germany (means: you can't do anythink with it) | |

| 15:47 | magnusenger | hm, i've been seeing a bit of this lately: "DBD::mysql::db do failed: The total number of locks exceeds the lock table size at /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl line 116." Anyone got an idea what i'm doing or not doing wrong? |
| 15:48 | hdl_laptop | magnusenger: are you trying to bulkimport while having rebuild_zebra crojob active ? |
| 15:48 | paul_p | magnusenger: it's a truncate biblio on a large DB |
| 15:48 | ? | |
| 15:49 | magnusenger | hdl_laptop: yup, not a good idea? |
| 15:49 | paul_p | not a good idea, definetly ;-) |
| 15:49 | magnusenger | paul_p: yes, about 400k records |
| 15:49 | hdl_laptop | you might end up screwing your server |
| 15:49 | because you start rebuild_zebra over and over again. | |
| 15:50 | paul_p | the foreign key constraint on biblio/biblioitems/items make truncate biblio fail on large DB. I had to do "DELETE FROM items WHERE biblionumber > 300 000" |
| 15:50 | the > 200 000, then 100 000, then biblioitems, then biblio | |
| 15:50 | hdl_laptop | rebuild_zebra cronjob should test whether a previous job is running or not |
| 15:50 | paul_p | a little bit slower, but works |
| 15:51 | (another possibility I didn't try would be to do : SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECK=0, then truncate biblio,biblioitems,items, then SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECK=1 | |
| 15:51 | hdl_laptop | but at the moment doesnot do that. |
| 15:51 | magnusenger | hdl_laptop: actually, i don't have rebuild_zebra running from cron, but i have the two daemons, which may be the same thing? |
| 15:51 | paul_p | ( magnusenger you've 2 solutions for 1 problem ...) |
| 15:52 | magnusenger | paul_p: a "luxury problem" as we say in Norwegian... |
| 15:52 | hdl_laptop | magnusenger: mmm koha-zebraqueue-ctl.sh is really slow to index. |
| 15:52 | magnusenger | hdl_laptop: well, seems to do the job quite well for my customer with 13K records... |
| 15:53 | hdl_laptop | 12000 biblios is not the same as 400000 |
| 15:53 | magnusenger | hdl_laptop: am i right in thinking that koha-zebraqueue-ctl.sh could interfere with bulkmarcimport.pl in the same way as rebuild_zebra.pl? |
| 15:54 | hdl_laptop: true that! ;-) | |
| 15:55 | so: i'll try deleting from biblio,biblioitems,items "by hand", stopping cronjobs and queue-daemons and then try to import/index again. Thanks for these tips! | |

| 18:07 | jdavidb | :) |
| 18:09 | Genji | And with liblime, no instant new features. you'll have to wait until they add it. Why are you using liblime? |
| 18:09 | wizzyrea | Gengi: we got in before it sucked. |
| 18:10 | Genji | Ah, and now your stuck with it, can't go back? |
| 18:10 | wizzyrea | Gengi: we're not particularly happy about the current state of affairs. |
| 18:10 | Gengi: we are discussing our options at this point. | |
| 18:12 | Genji | What features does liblime do that koha does not? |
| 18:14 | sekjal | Genji: Liblime Enterprise Koha, their customers-only fork, has a new Acquisitions interface, support for MARC format for Holdings Data, and course reserves, apparently |
| 18:14 | wizzyrea | http://www.liblime.com/product[…]lek-release-notes |
| 18:14 | sekjal | I assume it's got a few other unique features, as well |
| 18:15 | wizzyrea | http://www.liblime.com/product[…]lution-comparison |
| 18:15 | do note that the comparison is for 3.0.0, not 3.0.4-5 | |
| 18:15 | and certainly isn't comparable to current head. | |
| 18:16 | sekjal | wizzyrea: I thought it was 3.0.2 they were running as "community" |
| 18:16 | at any rate, it's getting more out of date by the day | |
| 18:16 | wizzyrea | it may be, but that's not what they're comparing |
| 18:16 | but I will double check | |
| 18:17 | * Genji | laughs.. "They say "no vendor lock in" on the table under Enterprise edition." |
| 18:17 | wizzyrea | sorry, sekjal, you're right, they claim they are running 3.0.2 |

| 18:25 | wizzyrea | hey brendan |
| 18:26 | nengard | kind of funny huh Genji |
| 18:29 | Genji | Funny... no. false advertising, yes. |
| 18:30 | nengard | was being sarcastic - i'm with you on this |
| 18:31 | sekjal | hey, brendan |
| 18:37 | Genji | Im thinking, what does liblime think of all this chatter against liblime? do they even care? |
| 18:38 | wizzyrea | my theory is that they think they have the superior product, and much like Automattic did with Wordpress, they want their version to become the canonical version, releasing it free while using their proprietary version as their hosted version (like wordpress.com) |
| 18:39 | and yea, I think they do probably care. | |

| 18:44 | chris | yep, id say it to their face too |
| 18:44 | they have made life much harder than it needs to be for hundreds of people | |
| 18:44 | Genji | But you are right.... if they were a person, (in new zealand, companies become an entity, a legal person.. so lets play with it.) I'd call them egotistical, prideful, greedy ($299 for Koha Express, and then they want us to support it.), and self-serving. |
| 18:44 | chris | i think greedy dicks is actually quite mild |
| 18:44 | jdavidb | chris++ |
| 18:45 | Genji | Thats $299 USD btw.... |
| 18:45 | And then they want to charge for Koha Community Edition. | |
| 18:45 | sekjal | technical question: I'm running a second installation of Koha (a dev install for testing, vs. my pre-existing production installation). Apparently, for the second instance of Zebra, I need different ports |

| 20:05 | bebbi | How long is your sec? :-) *kindly ask* |
| 20:06 | schuster | gozilla8nj - not sure - but you should be able to load it again and it won't do much depending on your match points usually it won't load items if they are already in the system. |
| 20:08 | Godzilla8NJ | schuster - thx. i'm importing almost 30k records (project gutenberg) and i'd hate to overload system by duplicating work if it's still running. any way to check? |
| 20:09 | Genji | Godzilla8NJ: Try 'top' |
| 20:10 | Godzilla8NJ | genji, pretty much a koha virgin here...using koha for a library school project...not sure what you mean by 'top'? |

| 20:12 | sekjal | godzilla8nj: do you have command line access to your Koha installation? |
| 20:12 | Genji | Ahh. good question, sekjal. |
| 20:12 | Godzilla8NJ | i do. |
| 20:13 | sekjal | ah, good. in that case, it might be easier for you to use bulkmarcimport.pl to do the initial data load |
| 20:13 | jdavidb left #koha | |
| 20:14 | sekjal | its a commandline tool usually found in misc/migration_tools |
| 20:14 | Godzilla8NJ | fair enough, so: roll back my server, wget the pj marc zip, and bulk import it? |
| 20:15 | (pj = pg) | |
| 20:17 | sekjal | I'd recommend that over the GUI import method. Are the MARC records in the PG zip separate files, or in batches? |
| 20:17 | bulkmarcimport.pl loads the contents of a single file at a time | |
| 20:20 | Godzilla8NJ | it's a single batch file. i think that's the way to go. last question, i did this all before (imported pg records using bulk tool at cmd line) but when i added records i suddenly found myself staring at the following msg when i tried a search: Can't call method "as_usmarc" on an undefined value at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Search.pm line 2133. Which I think has to do with indexing but am not sure. |
| 20:22 | sekjal | Godzilla8NJ: did you get this error only when you added more records, or after the initial bulk load? |
| 20:23 | Godzilla8NJ | i tried a gui import of several records, it failed, and i started seeing that. |
| 20:23 | sekjal | are you running Zebra, or without? |
| 20:24 | ropuch left #koha | |
| 20:24 | Godzilla8NJ | with. |
| 20:25 | sekjal | and you did the initial indexing after loading by running rebuild_zebra.pl -b? |
| 20:25 | Ropuch joined #koha | |
| 20:26 | Godzilla8NJ | did but after the crash it threw some errors. i felt lost, cold and alone so i just did a rebuild. |
| 20:27 | sekjal | did you have rebuild_zebra.pl running as a cron job every X minutes? |
| 20:27 | Godzilla8NJ | i did not, was just running it manually |
| 20:27 | sekjal | ok |
| 20:28 | odd... its not apparent to me what caused search to stop working after you GUI-loaded those additional records... something about the MARC? | |
| 20:28 | file permissions, perhaps? I'm speculating wildly | |
| 20:29 | were you always running rebuild_zebra.pl as your Koha user, or did you run it as another user at some point? | |
| 20:31 | Godzilla8NJ | as another user |
| 20:32 | sekjal | that might be it; running it as a different user changes the ownerships of the files, and has tripped me up before |

| 21:38 | gengi++ /for funniness | |
| 21:38 | Genji | .... |
| 21:38 | its GenJi.... Genji.. | |
| 21:38 | * wizzyrea | faceepalms |
| 21:38 | wizzyrea | sorry sorry |
| 21:38 | Genji | Gengi in Icelandish means 'original meaning' |
| 21:39 | wizzyrea | Genji++ /for ... awesomeness? |
| 21:40 | Genji | Genji is japanese, meaning commoner. Its from the Tale of Genji, a first novel in history, written by Lady Murasaki Shikibu. About a son of a courtisan, and the emperor, which of course being an illegitamate child, he can't really be a prince. Yet, hes very much part of court life... so you get a fair understanding of what it was like, back then. |
| 21:42 | Huge book... I only read one volume of a two volume set... which I returned to the Kyoto Sanggyo University Office Library.. and then they shut up shop, so I can't ever read the same translation again.... unless I remember who translated it. Very fustrating. | |
| 21:42 | wizzyrea | yikes, sounds frustrating |
| 21:44 | brendan | @wunder 93117 |
| 21:44 | munin | brendan: The current temperature in Northwest Goleta, Goleta, California is 16.3�C (1:38 PM PST on December 01, 2009). Conditions: Clear. Humidity: 71%. Dew Point: 11.0�C. Pressure: 29.89 in 1012.1 hPa (Falling). |
| 21:44 | Genji | Translation was beautiful. Poems as original as possible to the original, while keeping all its cultural references in footnotes, instead of translating the poems as meaning, depriving it of cultural context. |
| 21:46 | chris | hi GeorgeSue |
| 21:47 | wizzyrea | oh that does sound nice. The japanese language definitely lends itself to poetry. Do you speak japanese? |
| 21:47 | Genji | Only a tiny bit. |
| 21:48 | Not enough to be convincing as to get a japanese person to mistake that I know japanese, and then talk over my head. | |
| 21:48 | wizzyrea | hehe! |
| 21:48 | Genji | Wo betide someone who says 'moshi moshi' or 'Wei!' on the telephone in NZ. |
| 21:48 | * paul_p | heads to bed. Have a good day, morning, night, whatsoever #koha |
| 21:48 | brendan | night paul_p |
| 21:49 | chris | wei ni hao |
| 21:49 | ni hao ma | |
| 21:49 | Genji | wu leao. |
| 21:49 | * chris | has forgotten far more mandarin than he ever knew |
| 21:49 | * Genji | nodnods. |
| 21:50 | Genji | Did nightschool Chinese class a long time ago. |
| 21:50 | Japanese too. | |
| 21:50 | schuster | see ya - won't be up at the meeting in the morning sorry can't wait to read about it when I get to work! Just can't wait for it to be released really! |
| 21:50 | schuster left #koha | |
| 21:50 | chris | mine is just from a couple of visits to china, have a little bit of cantonese from visits to hong kong |
| 21:50 | my sister did her masters at shanghai university | |
| 21:51 | Genji | OMG... you visited china. Cool. Ive never set foot out of the country. |
| 21:51 | chris | Japan too |
| 21:52 | i made a deal with myself in my first year of uni, once i graduated i would travel overseas at least once every year | |
| 21:52 | i graduated with my 2nd degree in 97 and have managed to keep the deal :) | |
| 21:53 | Genji | My coding isn't that good, to be of note, nor my diplomacy. So neither have I landed a well paying job nor become an ambassador for Koha. |
| 21:53 | So, travel is not likely. | |
| 21:54 | chris | my first travel for koha, was to ohio |
| 21:54 | Genji | What doing? |
| 21:54 | chris | which i paid for from mileage points |
| 21:54 | meeting with owen, stephen and joshua from ACPL | |
| 21:55 | Genji | Cool. |
| 21:55 | chris | and presenting at the ohio library conference, and the thinklinunx conference in toledo |
| 21:55 | * chris | doesnt very often get paid to travel for koha |
| 21:55 | chris | i think 3 times |
| 21:56 | sekjal | sent in my first grant application for funding to go to KohaCon. working on a couple more |
| 21:57 | chris | w00t |
| 21:57 | ok, i gotta go do meetings and stuff | |
| 21:57 | sekjal | cheers, chris |
| 21:57 | I've got to get moving, myself. groceries, train, kitchen | |

| 22:06 | Genji | find (rk=( kw,wrdl="school")) and yr,st-numeric=2008 gives me 'error: extra token' in a find (with lang ccl2rpn set).... whats wrong with it? |
| 22:06 | It looks right... | |
| 22:10 | nevermind... oops. querytype.. not lang. | |
| 22:13 | ahh... interesting... pubdate query doesn't work if st-numeric is specified... | |
| 22:25 | and its a known problem in #koha.... was it fixed? | |
| 22:31 | whats the proper way to do match if pubdate > year? | |

| 23:20 | Ian | ...would like the SQL for datelastborrowed <* or NULL.....getting screwy results from my efforts (eg changing the ccode's of the results) |
| 23:23 | forgot to say please :-(... | |
| 23:27 | * chris_n2 | sets up extra coffee for the meeting later/tomorrow |
| 23:31 | chris_n2 | Ian: try SELECT * FROM items WHERE datelastborrowed < '2009-12-01' OR NULL; |
| 23:34 | Ian | thanks Chris...that's what i had but the OR seemed to trump the ccode criteria i had set. tried bracketing, still no |
| 23:35 | i will go nibble on toast... | |
| 23:40 | chris_n2 | Ian: 'SELECT * FROM items WHERE (datelastborrowed < '2009-12-01' OR NULL) AND ccode <> NULL\G' returns an empty set for me which is correct since all ccode's are NULL in my development db |
| 23:46 | rhcl is now known as rhcl_away | |
| 23:50 | Genji | melm 260$c pubdate:y,pubdate:s,pubdate:n,pubdate:w,copydate,copydate:s .... this line correct? or is there a reason in this line, that my searching for a range or > <es fails? |
