08:40 CGI562 hello house
08:41 has anyone seen charmlt today?
08:41 please, i need to speak to someone about koha
08:42 I want to know exactly how to load marc record on koha because when i tried what charmlt told me it was giving me broken link
08:42 please someone help me
08:43 i need to fix this as soon as possible
08:43 i mean today
08:46 kf you mean gmcharlt?
08:47 we need more information to help you
08:47 CGI562 ya
08:47 thanks
08:47 kf which marcflavor is your system?
08:47 you need valid marc21 records for koha
08:47 CGI562 ok
08:47 what
08:47 kf or unimarc
08:48 depending on your installation
08:48 did you try staged marc import or bulkmarcimport?
08:48 what error message do you get?
08:48 which version of koha are u using?
08:48 for gmcharlt - its a bit early in us
08:49 CGI562 Koha 3.0.2 stable version for ubuntu
08:49 sorry, I was just trying to put my url(tag 856) to link my local books
08:50 but I always receive broken link
08:50 like http://localhost/e-books/vbook.pdf
08:51 kf?
08:53 hello kf?
08:54 kf ok, so yo already loaded records but have problems with linking?
08:54 can you give me an example of your links?
08:55 we have working links in our opac, i can compare to yours

09:19 CGI562 kf, I have a pdf file in this directory e-books in document root (/var/www) since I am using ubuntu and I wish to link my record with a pdf file inside this. this is the url http://localhost/e-books/vbook.pdf
09:23 kf hm
09:23 not sure this will work
09:23 or it will only work on your server
09:24 if you cant access the link in your browser
09:24 you cant access it from koha
09:24 I think you should use your domain name or ip in the url

10:36 martinmorris good morning all, can anybody help me with a minor niggle in my koha installation?  i'm set to single branch mode, but the staff login screen still offers 'My Library' and 'Biblioteko Butler' (the actual name of our library) in a drop-down box?  Can I get rid of that?

11:52 kf martinmorris: you cant get rid of it by configuration - I think the singleBranch syspref does not change that
11:52 but it should be no problem
11:53 its only staff login and both options have the same effect
11:53 martinmorris oh it's no problem at all, I just wish it wasn't there :)
11:53 thanks kf
11:53 kf I think you could add something to the template to take singleBranchmode into account
11:55 martinmorris i might have a poke around but i was merely curious
11:57 kf someone else alpha-testing ? we have problems with search, for example can only search for kw when adding kw: to the search term
11:57 problem occurs with normal indexing and with icu

12:14 nengard hiya
12:19 kf hi nengard
12:19 Ropuch nengard: I came across your article in which you're saying that the librarians who never switched ILS  are affraid of changes
12:19 Hi kf [;
12:19 kf hi Ropuch - sorry :)
12:19 Ropuch nengard: but I can't find it
12:19 kf: you should'nt be ;-)
12:20 CGI562 kf
12:20 kf yes?
12:20 CGI562 u didn't solve my problem
12:20 nengard Ropuch - um .... what article?
12:21 I don't think I ever said that in an article ...
12:21 CGI562 i didn't get u right
12:21 I still can not link up my record to my pdf book
12:21 kf I dont think localhost links will work
12:22 have you a link that works in your browser?
12:22 can you post an example 856-field?
12:22 Amit left #koha
12:23 nengard Ropuch, all of my presentations and publications are listed here: http://www.web2learning.net/pu[…]ons-presentations

12:26 It goes to this link but reports fatal erro 404 broken link
12:26 kf is your opac accessible?
12:27 CGI562 yes
12:27 do you see anything wrong with opac
12:28 kf can you give me a link to this record?
12:28 CGI562 kf?
12:28 kf a link to your opac?
12:29 http://mathematicalscience.edu[…]books/Digital.pdf is not working in my browser
12:29 so it cant work in koha I think
12:29 CGI562 sorry, it is an intranet site, you may not access it
12:30 kf is the link shown in your opac?
12:30 CGI562 yes
12:31 kf we use less fields than you do
12:31 we only have u for the url
12:31 and display text (x? not sure about that one)
12:31 I dont think koha can actually do something with the other values
12:33 CGI562 is gmcharlt there now?
12:35 gmcharlt hi CGI562
12:35 kf ok, need to get back to patron import anyway bbl
12:40 CGI562 gmcharlt, the other time u instructed me to set my 856 tag $u to something like this  http://mathematicalscience.edu.ng/e-books but I always receives broken link eroor 404? pls, what can I do?
12:40 Ropuch nengard: thanks!

12:43 shamas hey
12:43 i want to know about marc 21
12:43 from where i can get help
12:43 and how to install marc for windows
12:44 gmcharlt CGI562: I assume that link works when you test it in your web browser directly?
12:45 shamas: http://www.loc.gov/marc has a lot of information about MARC21
12:45 if you're completely new to MARC, read the tutorials linked from that website first
12:46 shamas ok thnx
12:46 magnus CGI562: when I try to look at http://mathematicalscience.edu.ng/ i am told the server can not be found. are your sure that is the correct address?
12:49 gmcharlt kf: re searching, is your test OPAC accessible from outside?
12:50 kf gmcharlt: I think no, but I can perhaps change that
12:51 gmcharlt: let me check with my colleagues
12:51 gmcharlt kf: alternatively, email me your Zebra configuration files
12:51 though I suspect it may more likely be due to some recent changes to C4/Search.pm
12:52 magnus is now known as magnus_away
12:54 CGI562 gmcharlt, it didn't work, maybe there is something wrong or there is another way of going about it?
12:55 gmcharlt I think the first thing to determine is whether http://mathematicalscience.edu.ng/  is in fact the correct URL - it may not work (yet) at all, regardless of whether you're following a link from your Koha catalog or putting in the URL directly
12:56 greenmang0 left #koha
12:56 gmcharlt and it may be up to whoever is setting up your server and network to add mathematicalscience.edu.ng to DNS
12:57 if you can put up a screenshot of what you see when you try to follow such a link, we may be able to help you better
12:57 CGI562 gmcharlt, it is an intranet site so it cannot be viewed online
12:58 kf gmcharlt: i fear its Search.pm. we patched from 3.0.61
12:58 gmcharlt hmm - I read again and see that you're getting a 404 error, so DNS problems are not an issue (at least from within your intranet)
12:59 kf gmcharlt: collegues are still at lunch - zebra configuration files - records.abs etc?
12:59 gmcharlt so it may simply be that some work is needed to configure the webserver to serve things like http://mathematicalscience.edu[…]books/Digital.pdf
12:59 kf: right
13:00 kf gmcharlt: ok, colleague must be back every minute now, I will tell him and thank you!
13:01 collum joined #koha
13:02 gmcharlt kf: are you working from a dev-mode install for your alpha testing?  if so, try creating a new branch and git revert the following commit:  eb6b10f8c91 and see if that fixes the immediate problem; if not, try reverting earlier commits to C4/Search.pmm
13:02 I'll be testing that myself as well
13:04 kf gmcharlt: sorry, no dev install, we test-patched our standard install (a clone from production server)
13:04 gmcharlt: can you reproduce problems in search?
13:04 with search - sorry
13:05 chris_n` is now known as chris_n
13:05 gmcharlt actually, a little more info might help - OPAC or staff, advanced search or the search box?
13:05 kf everywhere :(
13:06 gmcharlt ah, no searches work at all without manually appending kw: ?
13:06 kf gmcharlt: mom, I will check and give you more information
13:07 gmcharlt: some things still work - I think it was barcode (retesting now), but free text search seems to be broken everywhere
13:07 Ropuch I'm gonna test 3.2 this weekend as sson as I get my new laptop - should I get it from HEAD or test the one from alpfa tarball?
13:08 gmcharlt Ropuch: up to you, but my recommendation is to do it as a dev-mode from a git clone rather than the tarball
13:08 Ropuch gmcharlt: fine by me :)
13:08 gmcharlt to checkout the 3.2-alpha version itself, do a git checkout v3.02.00-alpha from the git clone
13:08 kf gmcharlt: opac (simple search): only isbn 3* and call number r* give me results
13:09 chris_n g'morning
13:09 kf gmcharlt: can you point me to the patch that needs to be reverted on git?
13:10 gmcharlt kf: I'm not having any problems doing an OPAC simple search on title, keyword, subject, etc. in my 3.2 install
13:10 shamas left #koha
13:11 Ropuch gmcharlt: I just  want to avoid sending wrong-version patches
13:11 gmcharlt Ropuch: ah, if you're planning to patch, then work from HEAD
13:11 Ropuch gmcharlt: I hope I'll be able to ;>
13:11 gmcharlt cool
13:11 kf gmcharlt: oh :( so we need to find out what our problem is. only isbn, issn, call number seem to work, title, keyword, author etc. not
13:12 gmcharlt kf: so rather than jump to conclusions, Zebra config + info from the OPAC apache log should help track this down
13:12 chris_n gmcharlt: searches appear to work fine here running over the alpha
13:12 kf my collegue told me that there were no errors in the logs
13:12 chris_n but I don't think I'm running zebra with an icu(?) config
13:13 gmcharlt and if you can send me a copy of your C4 and opac CGI directory, I can compare it against alpha just to make sure that there wasn't some problem when you applied the patches
13:13 kf we patched from 3.0.61 - which we will need to do later too. perhaps this is part of our problem
13:13 gmcharlt yeah, right now the ICU config is definitely on the list of things to test
13:13 chris_n gmcharlt: is that a better configuration for zebra?
13:14 kf gmcharlt: its not icu atm - he told me he reconfigured it to be standard search
13:14 gmcharlt speaking of ICU and diacritics, I'd love it if you or someone else could point me to a good sample of German MARC21 records
13:14 kf: so it affects both ICU and standard config? hmmm
13:14 kf atm it seems so, perhaps we missed some stupid little thing
13:14 gmcharlt chris_n: yes, ICU to handle character normalization is better
13:15 kf gmcharlt: lets discuss that - there are some things to consider about German MARC21 records
13:15 gmcharlt speaking of which, chris_n, is there much in the way of Greek and Hebrew in the Foundations catalog?
13:15 chris_n I know jdavidb was having issue with searching on  a system with zebra in ICU
13:15 kf gmcharlt: bt I can sure send you examples
13:15 chris_n gmcharlt: very little atm
13:15 kf icu is not working with some search sys prefs
13:15 gmcharlt kf: thanks
13:15 chris_n gmcharlt: more spanish
13:15 kf I told him that and he turned some of them off - told me it works better now
13:17 owen joined #koha
13:20 jdavidb joined #koha
13:20 chris_n kf, gmcharlt: cait was helping jdavidb the other day with zebra ICU search problems
13:21 * jdavidb looks around for owen, and hides.
13:21 chris_n jdavidb: did you get your zebra ICU/search issue resolved?
13:21 owen It's okay jdavidb I'm not really awake yet
13:22 jdavidb chris_n:  ran a reindex last night, with one little change to the icu chain; gonna test here momentarily.
13:22 * chris_n holds his breath ;-)
13:22 kf i am cait ;)
13:23 chris_n lol kf :-)
13:23 kf no joke
13:23 jdavidb Seems to be working; I'm not getting as many results as I was on the production server, which has fuzzy on, but what I'm getting looks *REAL* good.
13:23 jwagner kf, that split personality is really going to get you in trouble....
13:23 jdavidb And diacritics appear to be working like I want.
13:23 chris_n kf: I believe you; its just funny
13:24 kf jwagner yesss... dont know which to choose yet
13:24 chris_n jdavidb: any chance you can switch to the latest head and try it?
13:24 jdavidb Not on that server.  The customer's health and nerves are fragile enough already.
13:24 chris_n hehe
13:24 kf jdavidb: fuzzy was on here and seemed working, turned in off now to investigate our problem after patching
13:24 nengard okay  - my job this AM - add the patron card documentation to the manual using the tutorial chris_n gave me yesterday !!
13:25 * chris_n runs and hides ;-)
13:25 gmcharlt why is everybody hiding from everybody else in this channel today?
13:25 nengard hehe
13:26 jwagner gmcharlt, because the Finger of Doom is pointing at them???
13:26 jdavidb chris_n, I'm gonna be spinning up a couple of instances with new HEAD here in the next day or two; I'm thinking of doing (at least) one with ICU indexing; it's so darn good with diacritics, I'm thinking of making that our stock installation mode.
13:26 chris_n nengard: did my response to you email explain?
13:26 nengard no doom - at least not for chris_n - he already walked me through everything :)
13:26 chris_n -yes!! waiting to see if they tried to make the font smaller
13:26 chris_n nice
13:27 jdavidb owen:  When you wake up, I hear you're having deranged hold-prio issues.  I hope I can help; I've had occasion to work with that.
13:28 nengard bug question for gmcharlt - or anyone - do we still want someone other than the person who patched the bug to closeit?
13:28 clost it?
13:28 i have many bugs i reported and patched and i could close - but i haven't cause i'm the one who wrote the patch :)
13:28 gmcharlt nengard: more that the original reporter should close it
13:28 nengard okay - well that's me :)
13:29 I'll clean up my bugs after i do the documentation update
13:29 gmcharlt sure, it would be great if somebody else tested and closed self-reported, self-patched bugs, but I think the original reporter closing them is more reasonable to expect
13:29 nengard chris_n - i do need something from you :) you said the label and patron card help files didn't make it into your patch - so if you have those, can you submit them so i can use them and improve upon them?
13:30 well - everyone who has HEAD installed - if you could go through the budgets sections and make sure I caught all of the language changes before i close that bug it would be great - if not, i'll close it and open a new one if anyone finds something i missed
13:30 CGI562 gmchart, I 've test this on my laptop that has no koha just to see if apache can open the link and it works. I think what happen is that webserver is redirecting request to koha document root. Do you know the koha document root?
13:31 gmcharlt that is purely dependent the mode you used when you installed Koha - you have the check the Apache config
13:32 chris_n nengard: I'll get those off shortly
13:33 nengard thanks!!
13:34 owen jdavidb: Here's the kind of thing I'm finding: http://koha.pastebin.com/mf0501
13:34 http://zivotdesign.com/example[…]ority-problem.png
13:37 jdavidb Two problems to cope with, owen--cause, and cure.  cure is easy; I wrote a script to clean up the mess, and reorder the holds in the order they were placed, which I'd be happy to share; it's copied a fair bit from some bits of C4::Reserves.
13:38 owen jdavidb: We used to have a similar script, but it was for 2.x and never got updated. Is your script general-purpose enough that it can be committed?
13:38 Something for /misc perhaps?
13:38 gmcharlt +1
13:39 jdavidb As to cause, I found a problem on the rendering of that table with a duplicated TMPL_VAR; those things are picked off in an array by the pl script, so one array was twice as long as it should be, with each entry twice.
13:40 owen And here I thought it was gremlins.
13:40 jdavidb I don't know if the problem was in our development, or running HEAD; we've hacked there a bit.  But that sort of problem creates the symptom you're seeing.
13:40 owen:  I'd think the script would be useful enough for misc/maintenance.  *shrug*
13:41 gmcharlt if you can send me the relevant commit from your hackery, that may be enough to figure out if it applies to HEAD
13:41 jdavidb: please submit the script, then
13:41 CGI562 left #koha
13:42 jdavidb I'd have to *find* it.  part of the recent hackery has a new column in reserves, and I don't know if that's part of HEAD or not.  I could also check HEAD and see if the error is still in there; it was plain as the nose on my face, when I saw it.
13:46 owen:  the script is at http://koha.pastebin.com/d5b72ce8c for your immediate problem-solving pleasure.
13:47 owen I wish I knew how to duplicate the error so I could test it
13:49 nengard owen - chris_n says you were working on graphics for the label/patron card makers to show how to figure out the measurements
13:49 any chance you're still doing this?
13:50 chris_n owen: this was the graphic to show measurements like margins, pitch, height, width, etc
13:50 jdavidb gmcharlt, owen:  The error that was causing this kind of holds-priority problem for us is *not* present in HEAD.  a duplication of the hidden-input borrowernumber/biblionumber pairing was causing it, for us.
13:51 jwagner jdavidb, but is it present in .061?  owen's running near enough to our version level.
13:52 jdavidb two shakes.

14:25 hilongo hello there!  :)
14:27 Quick question ... I have installed koha 3.0.5 downloading and installing... but I'm having some problems getting it to run properly and thought that maybe I should try to get koha from git... but my koha is already in production ... so I don't know how to procede to replace one with the other :-/
14:30 gmcharlt hilongo: the crude-but-simplest way would be to do a new dev-mode install from Git, then just point it to your production mysql database and Zebra database
14:31 and update your Apache config to point to the new install, of course
14:39 owen nengard: Have you done documentation of rotating collections yet?
14:41 nengard nope
14:41 all this new stuff came at once :)
14:42 owen I'm working on some pretty heavy template revisions for it, you might want to wait
14:42 hilongo gmcharlt: OK ... so, the steps would be: 1) git clone (somewere)  2) git pull  3) git fetch --tags  4) git reset --hard (what would I put here?) 5) point this new kohaclone to my mysql and zebra databases (how do I do this? editting the new koha-conf.xml or something else too?)  6) point Apache (via koha-httpd.conf) to the new location)  7) Dance the victory dance .. ...
14:42 nengard owen - thanks!! and awesome!! it did look like it needed your touch :)
14:44 gmcharlt 1) git clone git://git.koha.org/pub/scm/koha.git 2) git checkout -b active origin/3.0.x (or replace origin/3.0.x with the tag of the specific version you want to run)
14:44 no need to be doing git fetch, git reset --hard for an initial install
14:45 5) perl Makefile.PL (when asked, put in your existing mysql DB credentials and set path to existing production Zebra config)
14:45 make; make install
14:45 compare the koha-conf.xml generated by the dev mode install to the already in place and update it
14:45 bounce apache
14:46 dance the victory dance
14:46 missing some details, but hopefully you get the idea
14:49 * jwagner envisions gmcharlt dancing a victory dance
14:50 wizzyrea i bet it's glorious
14:51 owen I bet it involves some poppin' and lockin'
14:52 hilongo coming soon at Youtube maybe?  :)
14:52 jwagner I seem to remember some discussion of creating a haka for Koha -- maybe when chris gets better?
14:52 gmcharlt naw, I dance like a robot whose battery has run down
14:53 wizzyrea Hmm, reminds me of the sound kids toys make when the batteries still have enough juice to go, but it's all warbly and weird
14:53 owen will know what I mean
14:53 that isn't to say gmcharlt is warbly and weird, but that's how I imagine his run down robot dance
14:54 gmcharlt I meant when the battery is completely run down ;)
14:54 wizzyrea Ohh... I think they call that performance art.
14:55 jwagner wizzyrea, something like Tom Paxton's The Marvellous Toy?  "It went ZIP when it moved and POP when it stopped and WHIRRRR when it stood still"
14:55 wizzyrea jwagner hehe yes, exactly
14:55 sorry I will try to stay on target ;)
14:57 so. Bugs. Anything you would like me to poke at, an area as yet untouched?
14:57 or touched only briefly
14:57 collum Owen: opac-detail has an id element defined twice. (<body> and <div>)
14:57 * chris_n has gone through a case of bug spray already and its not even 1000 yet :-P
14:57 collum If this id is referenced in css or js which one wins?  Or is it browser specific?
14:58 gmcharlt wizzyrea: sysprefs and acq
14:58 owen collum: I don't know, it's invalid.
14:58 * collum doesn't have access to koha right now so I hope this is the right page.
14:58 wizzyrea okies
14:59 owen collum: I confirm the problem. The <div> should probably be the one to be renamed.
14:59 collum owen: OK.  I can play with it tonight.  Unless you just want to do it real quick.
15:00 owen I'll leave it for you. The <div> in question just needs a unique id that more or less describes its role/position. Doesn't need to be brilliant.
15:00 collum yep
15:03 owen Thanks collum

15:41 ok, going to talk practical koha use (for real this time) with our nexpress librarians. back in a bit

15:51 owen: done (re OPAC)
15:51 I've also removed jmf@liblime.com as default assignee for all components still left with him except website (for which I've added myself as CC)
15:52 jdavidb Colin has been doing a *lot* of SIP work lately, gmcharlt; might talk to him about taking that.
15:54 gmcharlt @later tell Colin would you be wiling to be the default assignee for the SIP2 bug component?
15:54 munin gmcharlt: The operation succeeded.
15:55 owen Hmmm... No way to delete a rotating collection?
15:55 editCollections.pl seems to cover the process, but the template lacks an interface. I wonder if it's buggy.
15:56 gmcharlt owen: no doubt there are rough edges with it, yes
15:56 * owen grumbles
15:56 gmcharlt and I'm fully prepared to push it out of 3.2 and into 3.4 if need be
16:02 owen gmcharlt: right off the bat I see that transfers of rotating collection items aren't getting handled properly by the returns template

16:13 owen <div class="dialog alert"> is the correct (standard) style, not <div class="dialog error">
16:14 gmcharlt owen: hmm, check the last 20 commits or so - I think I may have pushed an unrelated patch that violates that
16:15 owen I may have already caught it gmcharlt, I do remember another one
16:16 But my primary concern about that screenshot is the conflict between the two transfer messages
16:17 gmcharlt yep, that does it
16:17 it's going to be moved to future

16:49 wizzyrea timeout on local hold, anybody proposed that?
16:49 (3.4, for sure)
16:50 gmcharlt not to my knowledge
16:50 wizzyrea sweet, I'll um.... file a bug I guess. Is there a category for 3.4 yet?
16:50 owen wizzyrea, can you elaborate?
16:51 wizzyrea yessir... so lets say you have a bestseller, and you give it a itype of Local hold, restricting it to branch only patrons
16:51 that item will probably not be popular anymore in 6 months
16:51 gmcharlt wizzyrea: I add rel_3_4 to bz
16:51 wizzyrea so no reason to have that itype on it anymore
16:51 * owen supposes he can stop rushing to fix rotating collection templates
16:52 wizzyrea but, 6 months down the road you have to manually remove that itype
16:52 it would be nice, if at catalog time, you could set an expiration date
16:52 owen Sounds like date-based itemtypes
16:52 wizzyrea to automatically change the itype to a non restricted one
16:52 does that exist?
16:53 gmcharlt wizzyrea: ah, interesting - akin to Evergreen's notion of "age protection"
16:53 owen Just trying to understand the goal better
16:53 * owen could use some age protection himself
16:53 wizzyrea I'm not familiar with that
16:53 gmcharlt though age protection is an item attribute in EG, not an attribute of (EG's equivalent of) the item type
16:53 wizzyrea but it sounds like it's related
16:53 :)(
16:54 I actually think that item attributes are sorely underused in koha, I bet that would be a huge job to revamp :(
16:54 make holdability dependent on item specific attributes instead of itypes
16:55 the local hold thing, now that I'm thinking about it, was a bit of a shoehorn
16:56 brb have to move my car, the realtors next door are getting mad (wow, this meeting is putting me in a foul temper)
16:56 ty for the tag gmcharlt, I'll condense my thoughts and add a bug/enhancement for 3.4 for local hold time-limits
16:57 rhcl I've just purchased kohacon.com and kohacon.org
16:58 these will be for community use (I'll gladly transfer ownership) if the community wants them
17:01 * chris_n hates it when he accidentally triple clicks and closes more windows then he intended... bah...
17:02 owen That's great rhcl. You'll have to try to connect with chris when he's back online
17:04 rhcl yep
17:16 wizzyrea rhcl: chris is quite ill, was in the hospital. You might try emailing him
17:16 if you want response quicker
17:21 rhcl Oh, it can wait I'm sure.
17:24 jwagner chris is made of sterner stuff than I am.  I don't think I'd be tweeting while doctors were attacking me with scalpels and forceps....
17:24 whimpering, maybe, but not tweeting!
17:27 rhcl what's the escape sequence to "hid" posts here from being logged?

17:27 owen That's how I remember it

17:30 I figured you'd *help* jwagner.
17:31 jwagner Nah, I don't bother with faces.  I just mutter curses....
17:31 gmcharlt rhcl: remember that while [off] will prevent logbot_backup from recording it, it doesn't prevent anybody who's on channel for logging and posting the conversation </standard disclaimer about IRC logging>
17:32 rhcl sure, understand that... this is a pretty minor thing
17:32 jwagner The problem with making faces is that my face works independently of my thoughts.  When I think I'm grimacing in anguish, Jeetika thinks I'm in a good mood....
17:35 jdavidb you just have a very happy face, jwagner.
17:36 (unlike mine.  When I'm happy, it looks pretty neutral.  When I actually smile, it's time to run and hide in fear.)

19:01 Peach Hi all
19:03 Peach left #koha
19:05 rhcl whizzyrea: "YES" what?
19:05 BK coupon?
19:09 CGI646 joined #koha
19:10 CGI646 hello
19:10 joetho bk coupon yes. She talks about health food but dreams about BK coupons.
19:11 CGI646 can someone answer a koha question for me?
19:13 jdavidb Ask away, 646; if someone can answer, they'll chime in.
19:14 CGI646 cool - thanks.  i am just looking at the koha demo and is there a way to print out barcodes for the patrons or books?
19:15 i looked in reports
19:15 * jwagner says "Paging chris_n"
19:16 jdavidb The demo on the koha.org site is a fair bit out-of-date; I think there has been some recent work in that area, particularly on patrons.  What is already present, for items, is in the Tools menu, as "Label Creator."
19:16 CGI646 ah...just found it thanks!
19:16 * chris_n drags himself out of a pit of bugs and grasps the keyboard
19:16 wizzyrea you probably want to look at the demos on koha-community.org
19:16 jdavidb wizzyrea++
19:17 wizzyrea and there's a slightly better method for connecting to the IRC channel there as well :)
19:17 one where you get to pick your nick
19:17 chris_n jwagner: here.... just
19:17 jdavidb The demos at koha-community.org are fresher, at the moment.
19:17 wizzyrea they are actually up to head as of yesterday
19:17 CGI646 ok - i am looking for a program for a small charter school and found this through a google search.  i have looked at library express - is koha a pretty good program?
19:17 wizzyrea we think so
19:17 jdavidb awesome, wizzyrea!  you rock!
19:18 wizzyrea jdavidb had you not seen that?
19:18 I've been busy >.>
19:18 jdavidb I saw it the night you stood it up, but I've not been back there since; been kinda busy with stuff here.
19:18 wizzyrea and gmcharlt too, he's written most of the content
19:18 PH helped with the CSS a little
19:19 jdavidb :-O  Someone other than owen knows css around these parts?  Who knew!?  :P
19:19 wizzyrea lol
19:19 owen I've just got the best marketing team
19:19 jdavidb heheh
19:20 CGI646 thanks for your help and feedback - i'll check out the demo at koha-community.org
19:20 thanks again
19:20 jdavidb 646, you could do a *lot* worse for your library than koha.
19:21 wizzyrea some argue that you couldn't do better :)
19:22 jdavidb for some libraries, I'd agree, wizzyrea.  I don't think that (today) you could get Queens Borough to say so, or Library of Congress, but someday, someday...
19:22 jwagner chris_n, I was just seeing if you wanted to describe your label & patron card creator for CGI646
19:22 CGI646 the school doesn't have any kind of program now and they only want to enter in their data once
19:23 schuster Koha would be a good starting point as a school...  and the price is right generally
19:23 Depends on if they have a Debian server that can be setup and someone to help do updates.
19:23 wizzyrea a good nerd always helps
19:24 jdavidb Koha's pretty darn good for K-12 work (I hope schuster agrees with that; I'd consider him authoritative on that.)
19:24 wizzyrea in fact,
19:24 I would consider a good nerd a requirement for running koha
19:24 :P
19:24 or at least someone who's willing to geek out with us while we help get you going
19:25 CGI646 i would be that nerd
19:25 wizzyrea excellent :)
19:25 CGI646 maybe :)
19:25 wizzyrea http://koha-community.org/download-koha/ lists the requirements
19:25 jdavidb you've already demonstrated one important skill--you're here, askin' questions.
19:26 CGI646 very tru
19:27 joetho it lists the requirements for being a nerd?
19:27 jdavidb What youo see right now is a pretty normal population here, for this time of day.  During US working hours, are usually several folks around who can help with things.
19:27 CGI646 pardon my ignorance - do the requirements listed mean it won't run on a windows environment?
19:28 jdavidb It has been done on Windows, but it's not a popular setup.
19:28 rhcl You wouldn't really want to try. :)
19:28 CGI646 ok
19:30 ok - let me poke around some more in the demo during the last few minutes of my lunch break.  thanks again for the advice/feedback etc.
19:30 jdavidb You bet.  best of luck.
19:32 CGI646 thanks

19:33 francharb left #koha
19:35 wizzyrea lol grumpy-old-coot
19:35 ...can it run on windows. I'm not sure I really want to go there
19:36 running anything on windows kind of gives me the heebie jeebies
19:36 jdavidb wizzyrea, I don't think either one of us is quite masochistic enough for that.
19:36 wizzyrea and it is, truly, masochism
19:36 "Please microsoft... hit me again... oh the pain... again!"
19:36 rhcl all the (best) help would be for Linux, to try on Windows would require some knowledge and ability to wing some of it
19:37 jdavidb One o' these days, when I'm up for some pain and suffering, I'll try to spin Koha up using IIS.  Behind a firewall, natch.  Merely looking at the IIS package opens you up to all sorts of leaky security.
19:38 wizzyrea I looked at it sideways once, and a russian hacker pwnt my brain
19:38 rhcl IIS with Win98 on a PII ?
19:38 * jdavidb throws a Koosh at rhcl.
19:38 rhcl What the *heck* is a Koosh? That don't even google right
19:39 jdavidb http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koosh
19:39 rhcl Oh, it's a ball thingie
19:39 brendan left #koha
19:39 wizzyrea very popular in the mid 90's
19:39 a squooshy, crazy looking ball
19:39 rhcl I got some good swag day before yesterday.
19:40 * jwagner screams in anguish
19:40 rhcl well, off to clean off my workbench...
19:40 jdavidb wizzyrea: You still running Easy Peasy on your Eee?
19:40 rhcl is now known as rhcl_away
19:41 jdavidb you okay, jwagner?
19:41 jwagner WHY are subscription periodicity values hardcoded in the template and the pm file?  It's impossible to do a report to list a serial title and its frequency!!!
19:41 wizzyrea actually, I was running UNR on it
19:41 ubuntu netbook remix
19:41 * jdavidb nods.
19:42 wizzyrea is good.
19:42 jdavidb I switched to EEEBuntu a while back, and it smokes along pretty well.
19:42 * jdavidb hasn't tried running Koha on that.  Yet.

19:53 I think of munin as an it
19:53 wizzyrea it
19:53 it doesn't
19:53 Jo morning all
19:53 wizzyrea >.<
19:53 brendan morning Jo
19:54 Jo I think Munin is a guy
19:54 wizzyrea hey jo. any word from chris? I sure hope he's feeling better
19:54 Jo no word.
19:54 wizzyrea poor fella
19:55 Jo I had tonisls out when I was 27. It was all terrific until the morphine wore off then I was in unbelievable pain for about 3 days ... so not expoecting to hear from him :(
19:55 * jwagner sends chris lots of ice cream, popsicles, and other cool and soothing stuff
19:55 Jo Mason: you up and about yet?
19:56 wizzyrea chloraseptic spray
19:56 man I had mono in college, and that was terrible, i can only imagine what it must be like to have your tonsils out
19:56 Jo liquid painkillers (childrens paracetemol is ghastly in large amounts )
19:57 wizzyrea chloraseptic spray *then* take your pills
19:57 Jo a dm on twitter gets to his phone - if he has it switched on of course
19:57 wizzyrea spray -> pill pop

19:57 lol
19:57 * jdavidb chills a bottle of whiskey.
19:58 Jo asking a kid to swallow straight whiskey was a bit dodgy i alwasy thought
19:58 wizzyrea haha yea
19:58 Jo so, talk to me about the bug squashing party next week.
19:59 schuster makes them sleep well though not the bug squashing, but the wisky
19:59 Jo probably  both :)
19:59 i have a bunch of bugs found in our test koha 3.x.
20:00 cm joined #koha
20:00 Jo i was thinking i should load them into bugzilla but now unsurte.
20:00 shhould i wait until after i have tested them on the latest release
20:00 wizzyrea yea, probably
20:00 what kind of bugs
20:00 Jo probably what?
20:00 advanced search,
20:01 wizzyrea wait until you've tested on the latest release
20:01 Jo patrons accounts
20:01 no blockers just little annoyances which will trash the goodwill towards going live in about 3 mins flat
20:01 ok - sonext question.
20:02 will there be a latest release test database that we could access for the bug squashing day
20:02 i doubt that chris will have been able to get ours updated by then
20:02 wizzyrea um, the bywater demo on koha-community.org is up to date to db revision 111
20:02 if that heps
20:02 helps
20:02 Jo cool.
20:02 wizzyrea which is... yesterday
20:02 Jo i would like to particpate and will roster one of senior staff on as well (good intro to koha community)
20:03 wizzyrea yea, finding bugs is almost as important as squashing them :)
20:03 Jo we won't be able to fix anything but are quite at finding, testing and reporting back
20:03 john is now known as john_brice

20:08 wizzyrea owen: what do you think of this interface http://screencast.com/t/YjA4YzRhMzI
20:09 does it look odd to you?
20:09 like it needs some padding or something
20:09 owen Yes
20:10 * wizzyrea realizes she should close her tabs before sending screenshots
20:10 wizzyrea but is terribly lazy
20:10 owen It's okay, it gives us all a chance to snoop ;)
20:11 wizzyrea: How did you reach that page?
20:11 wizzyrea good question
20:12 joetho one facebook tab. Not bad.,
20:12 wizzyrea let be backtrack
20:12 ;)
20:12 I created an order
20:12 I hit "Close this basket"
20:12 Clicked "Yes"
20:13 and that did it
20:13 incidentally, if you hit back, and do those steps from a completed basket, it creates a new basket
20:13 identical*
20:13 * owen gets so confused by acquisitions
20:14 wizzyrea me too
20:14 I suppose it makes sense if you use it every day
20:14 it's very hard to test :/
20:15 owen I'd love to see the workflow diagrammed
20:15 tomas joined #koha
20:15 wizzyrea yes, that would be super helpful
20:15 sekjal agreed.

20:15 braedon|work anyone know what version of Graphics::Magick 3.2a needs? the perl makefile has it as an undisplayable character when it complains about it
20:16 (for me)
20:17 wizzyrea hrm http://screencast.com/t/ODIyYTZlYjEt
20:17 can anybody else replicate? I'll file the bug if so
20:17 Jo I can draw up our acquisitions workflow if you like
20:17 wizzyrea ooh, and if you cancel the download the basket disappears
20:18 braedon|work is it just me that gets XML Parsing Errors when viewing those links?
20:18 wizzyrea or disappears regardless of whether you print or not
20:18 Jo we use koha entirely for acq
20:18 wizzyrea the screencast ones?
20:18 braedon|work ya
20:18 wizzyrea I've never had an issue with them
20:18 sekjal Jo: that'd be great!
20:18 wizzyrea http://content.screencast.com/[…]b93e/00000128.png
20:18 owen Jo: It might be helpful but you probably don't have all the features we're looking at. New stuff in 3.2
20:18 braedon|work that one works
20:18 Jo ok - onto it now (nothing like putting off other stuff that has to be done)
20:18 wizzyrea yea, it's just the png without the wrapper
20:19 oh hell, and the PDF isn't actually downloaded/generated
20:19 booo
20:19 sigh off to bugzilla I go

21:38 Jo so I have done a visio diagram of how we use acquisitions here at HLT as a starting point. Can someone advise what would be the best way to share it?
21:38 richard i think visio lets you export as jpeg
21:38 Jo Can save it as png, jpeg etc or a visio drawing
21:39 (waves at Richard)
21:41 chris_n Jo: maybe in both visio and jpeg?
21:42 Jo ok.
21:42 now how do I share them? I can load them into Kete from where they can be downloaded
21:43 but they kinda belong somewhere more Koha community space than HLT
21:43 I'll load them into Kete and someone clever can take them from there and put them anywhere useful
21:43 brendan Hey Jo
21:44 I'd say send it to Nicole and maybe she can add it to the manual
21:44 err.. nengard that is
21:46 Jo oh Brendan ... I suspect we operate at a very basic level compared to other big organisations.
21:46 maybe way way to simple :)
21:46 brendan jo - I think it all helps
21:47 Jo but I will alert her to it and she can take it from there :)
21:47 brendan if you're doing that way I'm sure their are loads of others that are doing the same way
