02:06 | Jo | Chris N - are you about |
02:06 | need help with labelmaker | |
02:07 | braedon|work | hey, i'm in line firsT! |
02:07 | Jo | elbows raedon out of the way with my big bum ;) |
02:09 | wizzyre_laptop left #koha | |
02:10 | braedon|work | what is your problem with the labelmaker? |
02:10 | Jo | have a phonecall which i need help with |
02:11 | Mapua library - wanting to generate and print out barcode labels from 3.0.0.2 | |
02:11 | and its not working | |
02:13 | right, well then I shall sit patiently and wait in line - behind Braedon - for Chris-N to come cak | |
02:13 | back (even) | |
02:16 | braedon|work | haha, no no, go ahead of me |
02:16 | i hacked around mine anyway | |
02:16 | it is more of a bug report than an ask for help | |
02:18 | the scaling and positioning of barcodes in the patron card creator(and probably in other labels that use barcodes) is rather broken if the number is too small. So i added a million to each number - thankfully the library is still at a stage where it can do that | |
02:29 | Jo | this is a small volunteer library in mapua (nelson - NZ) lloking for help. |
02:30 | way beyond my skillset unfortunately | |
02:34 | braedon|work | what are the details of the problem? I may possibly be able to be of some assistance (but probably not) |

02:50 | Jo | braedon: they need to generate and print out a sheet of barcode labels to stick on books. |
02:51 | starting from a completely manual system | |
02:51 | they have the system up and running - z39.50 working etc. | |
02:51 | can create records - but need sheets of barcodes to do the next thing (sounds easy :) | |
02:56 | cj joined #koha | |

02:59 | braedon|work | Jo what are they up to? |
02:59 | what have they tried? | |
03:02 | * chris_n | wanders back in |
03:02 | chris_n | Jo: 3.0.0.2... is there any way they could upgrade to something more recent... 3.0.5 maybe? |
03:03 | braedon|work: scaling has been busted for a while for very low numbers | |
03:03 | which is a good reason to go with large numbers :-) | |
03:04 | actually scaling foo is a bit challenging with the way the PDF::Reuse barcode stuff is written | |
03:04 | so it may stay that way for a while longer | |
03:04 | braedon|work | chris_n: i figured you would know, but thought it should bring it up jsut in case |
03:05 | s/it/i/ | |
03:05 | chris_n | there is actually a bug for it and someone did some work, but what works for small numbers will most likely have the opposite effect on large ones |
03:05 | braedon|work | s/jsut/just/ |
03:06 | chris_n | Jo: we just did 7k labels with the label tool and most of them were in early versions of 3.0.x |
03:07 | cj | is there a script/utility to migrate data from koha 2.2.3 to 3.0? |
03:08 | Jo | hi chris_n |
03:08 | chris_n | cj: check the scripts in misc/migration_tools/22_to_30 |
03:08 | hey Jo, what sort of problems are they having? | |
03:09 | Jo | Chris_n : I shall ask. The other option is that they have a teeny tiny budget and could pay someone to generate a file for them to just print off. |
03:09 | cj | where can i find that chris_n? in my local server? |
03:09 | Jo | I don't know exactly.... but I have the lady's email address. |
03:09 | chris_n | cj: and also installer/data/mysql |
03:09 | cj: yes | |
03:10 | Jo | wondering whether it is the same problem Braedon might be having ... bet they tried to start from 1 or something like that |
03:10 | cj | thanks chris.. ill check |
03:10 | chris_n | it may be |
03:10 | the barcodes scale very large it seems when small numbers are used | |
03:10 | chris | http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=22_to_30&s[]=update |
03:10 | Jo | would you be willing for me to put her in direct contact with her? |
03:11 | chris_n | Jo: sure |
03:11 | Jo | ok - thank you :) |
03:11 | gmcharlt | hi chris - is will on #koha? |
03:11 | chris_n | Jo: chris.nighswonger at gmail.com |
03:11 | chris | nope, ill tell him to get on when he gets to his desk tho |
03:12 | gmcharlt | nothing urgent |
03:12 | just wanted to welcome him | |
03:13 | chris_n | braedon|work: the algorithm for scaling the barcodes is based on how wide the bar pattern is |
03:13 | braedon|work | chris_n: well, there is really two issues as far as i can see. first is the positioning of the smaller barcodes, or rather all barcodes - the issue gets increasingly less pronounced as you increase the barcode size. The other is barcodes being stretched to a fixed percentage of the card, which looks rather bad and seems to cause issues with barcode scanners (for me). Wouldn't have a clue about the first from what i read of the code, but the latter sho |
03:13 | uld be able to be solved by calculating an optimum width for reading instead of stretching, and then handling barcodes that have optimum widths greater than the card seperatly | |
03:13 | chris_n | roughly speaking, height is inversely proportional to width |
03:14 | user77 joined #koha | |
03:14 | chris_n | what flavor of barcode are you using? |
03:14 | user77 is now known as rhcl_home | |
03:14 | braedon|work | code39. nothing else seems to work |
03:14 | not that i know what the others are supposed to do... :p | |
03:14 | chris_n | I've never had a problem with code39 reading |
03:15 | braedon|work | it was for numbers like 2 |
03:16 | chris_n | I can understand that, though |
03:16 | om | |
03:17 | braedon|work | om nom nom? |
03:17 | (sorry, too much tf2) | |
03:17 | chris_n | hehe |
03:17 | bug 2409 is the one for that | |

03:17 | chris_n | feel free to submit any hackary you find works better with both small and large numbers |
03:18 | cj | i'm having an error while executing this command "perl update22to30.pl" ---> Can't locate C4/Context.pm in @INC |
03:19 | not really familiar with perl | |
03:19 | braedon|work | have you set the enviromental variables? |
03:20 | something like this: | |
03:20 | export KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/koha-conf.xml | |
03:20 | export PERL5LIB=/usr/share/koha/lib | |
03:20 | particuarly the latter | |
03:20 | check with: | |
03:21 | echo $PERL5LIB | |
03:21 | cj | oks |
03:26 | braedon|work | those variables are required for any Koha command line scripts to run. If you run those export commands(make sure they point to the correct places for your install, and edit if necessary) straight from a terminal, they will only apply for the current session. to "permanently" apply them, you will need to add the lines to something like /etc/environment, or the .profile file for the account that will be running scripts |
03:32 | Amit joined #koha | |
03:32 | Amit | good morning all |
03:32 | chris_n | heya Amit |
03:33 | Amit | heya chris_n |
03:33 | braedon|work | chris_n: I can have a look, but from what i have seen of the koha source code, my perl is really not up to scratch at the moment to do anything like that. The only perl work i have done is a script to mass search z39.50 servers, that i wrote a month or so ago. I can write my own basic scripts, but don't really have the knowledge of the more advanced language features to know enough of what is going on in Koha code to make any changes, if that makes se |

03:34 | i'm more of a python person :) | |
03:34 | rhcl_home | python++ |
03:34 | chris_n | np, it is on the list to do |
03:35 | * chris_n | and snakes do not get along well ;-) |
03:35 | braedon|work | i really should do more work with perl though |
03:36 | "python" actualy refers to monty python, not the snake | |
03:36 | the logo is misleading :P | |
03:37 | rhcl_home | but the book "Programming Python" by O'Reilly did have a snake on the cover |
03:37 | * braedon|work | enjoys reading the python manual for the monty python sketch references |
03:37 | chris | http://go-to-hellman.blogspot.[…]ches-of-koha.html |
03:37 | rhcl_home | kind of a play on words |
03:37 | chris_n | so will Python answer "What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?" |
03:38 | braedon|work | dunno, but there are at least two examples in the manual that write code that effectively reenacts that sketch |
03:38 | rhcl_home | emacs probably has a built-in function template to answer it |
03:39 | braedon|work | from wikipedia(must be true!): "An important goal of the Python developers is making Python fun to use. This is reflected in the origin of the name (based on the television series Monty Python's Flying Circus), in the common practice of using Monty Python references in example code, and in an occasionally playful approach to tutorials and reference materials.[22][23] For example, the metasyntactic variables often used in Python literature are spam an |
03:39 | d eggs, instead of the traditional foo and bar." | |
03:40 | anywho | |
03:40 | chris_n | hmmm.... koha uses php? |

03:45 | chris_n | Drew: I just noticed that as well |
03:45 | braedon|working | actually, i found that too |
03:45 | * chris_n | was under the impression that that had been fixed |
03:45 | * braedon|working | will check |

03:48 | gmcharlt | chris: will there be a DBrev for the 2188 patch series? |
03:48 | braedon|working | and in 3.00.05 |
03:48 | for me | |
03:48 | Drew: what version, and Zebra/NoZebra? | |
03:48 | Drew | where do I look for that |
03:49 | braedon|working | search for zebra in system preferences for Zebra |
03:49 | chris_n | iirc it was a date formatting issue |
03:49 | braedon|working | version... dunno. Anyone? |
03:51 | chris_n: weird that it is working on 3.00.05. I'm sure it wasn't a week or so ago. Unless it was another NoZebra issue?) | |
03:54 | Drew | i opted not to use zebra as we have less than 1000 volume |
03:54 | braedon|working | that may be the issue |
03:54 | i have had nothing but problems with noZebra | |
03:54 | Drew | can i add zebra now? |
03:54 | braedon|working | yip |
03:54 | Drew | how would I do that |
03:55 | braedon|working | just posted a howto to the mailinglist in response to someone else |
03:55 | are you subscribed? | |

04:09 | actually there is more tables not seen here, koha.shelfcontents, Unknown column 'virtualshelfcontents.itemnumber', | |
04:09 | chris_n | later bookshelf is renamed to virtualshelves |

13:51 | jwagner | I can sympathize with the learning business -- I still only know the basics of git myself. But it looked like you might have been trying to work in a new directory off master rather than creating a git branch. |
13:52 | Ask jdavidb how many times I tried editing in master rather than in a branch :-( | |
13:53 | * jdavidb | was about ready to tattoo "use git status!" on the back of jwagner's hand. But enough harrumphing and growling, and she learned. :) |
13:53 | schuster | The system I was doing my editing on is a test system of 3.2 that I pulled and followed the directions so either way if it was a branch or Master didn't matter to me. I then transfered the files to a live server to make the actual git transfer, and pondered about the problems I was creating... |
13:57 | jwagner | See, I'm luckier. I just get to ponder about the problems I'm creating for jdavidb :-) |
13:57 | nengard | hello from under 2 feet of snow!!! |
13:58 | jwagner | But maybe gmcharlt or jdavib can talk you through setting up a branch on your live server, before you try copying your modified files to their proper directories to remake the patch. |
13:58 | jdavidb | Hi, nengard. We had another foot yesterday, on top of the two feet from the weekend. It's drifted up as high as my bedroom windows. |
13:59 | jwagner | Hi, nengard. Is that 2 feet of new snow? |
13:59 | nengard | jwagner - no - 2 feet total |
13:59 | thank god! | |
13:59 | jwagner | We'll send you some of ours, then -- probably 3 feet or more outside right now. |

16:35 | nahuel left #koha | |
16:36 | owen | Contrast that with the way data is pulled for display on opac-user.pl: On opac-user.pl we're pulling biblio information via GetPendingIssues |
16:38 | I don't see how I can use the new GetRecordValue in conjunction with opac-user.pl to display subtitles since opac-user.pl doesn't use GetMarcBiblio | |
16:38 | jwagner is now known as jw-shovels | |
16:38 | * gmcharlt | takes a look |
16:38 | jdavidb joined #koha | |
16:39 | owen | ...which makes me wonder if the job of pulling biblio data should be moved from GetPendingIssues and put in opac-user.pl |
16:41 | gmcharlt | in an abstract sense, yes |
16:41 | the reason for doing it that way in GetPendingIssues is to avoid pulling and parsing the MARC blob | |
16:42 | * owen | gets frustrated by the myriad ways the user will see titles displayed in the OPAC |
16:42 | gmcharlt | but since the GetRecordValue stuff isn't stored in the database or cached |
16:42 | going ahead and using GetMarcBiblio or the like instead is worth it, IMO, for the sake of consistency | |
16:43 | as long as the changes are designed to ensure that a given MARCXML doesn't get parsed more than once during the opac-user.pl run | |
16:44 | since GetPendingIssues does given you the bibnum | |
16:44 | I suggest not changing that function itself | |
16:44 | and just add code to opac-user.pl to bring in the bib and display it | |
16:45 | just be sure to test performance if, say, the user has 100 items checked out | |
16:45 | owen | I may be getting in over my head. How do I test performance? |
16:45 | gmcharlt | well, initially, with a stop watch |
16:46 | if the page takes 5 seconds to render now, but takes 15 seconds after you make your change ... | |

18:39 | Sjeffery | Is there a way to add a default value to cataloging framework fields? I can't seem to find it form the administraiton menu. Is it hardcoded somewhere? |
18:39 | fredericd | chris: I'm looking misc/translator scripts and the whole process of generating .po files. Is the version number appended to .po filename required? Still required with git? |
18:40 | schuster | Sjeffery - some of it is did you have something in particular you wanted to code? |
18:46 | Sjeffery | My thought is to have default values in some fields so that our non-catalogers would have a better idea of what is supposed to go in a field and how it is supposed to be formatted. Maybe there is a better way than default text? For example: The 086 subfield which indicates the source/system will almost always have the exact same value for us. |
18:46 | Everything else in Koha looks good, but that MARC-based input screen will be a nightmare to train our people on (working on getting a migration to Koha approved at our library right now). | |
18:48 | chris | fredericd: no, not required, but i do find it handy sometimes .. but no with git and different branches, not required at all |
18:48 | Sjeffery: you can do it with authorised/authorized values | |
18:49 | * chris | is off to http://baacamp.org/ today, so cant explain properly but someone will be able to tell you how to set that up |
18:49 | goes to finish packing | |
18:49 | Sjeffery | Figures:) |
18:50 | jwagner | Sjeffery, look at Home � Administration � MARC Frameworks � Framework Structure � Tag 086 Subfield Structure � Edit subfields constraints , then click on display more constraints for a particular subfield. You can enter a Default Value, or tie the subfield to an authorized value pick list. |
18:51 | You'd have to create the authorized value list separately. | |
18:52 | Sjeffery | Aha, great. I was in a slightly different menu. |
18:52 | tomascohen left #koha | |
18:53 | Sjeffery | I tihnk what I am going to do is create a framework for brief records with only half a dozen fields, all with example default text filled in. That way, in theory, anyone should be able to figure it out. |
18:55 | jwagner | Sjeffery, that will be a LOT of work -- it's difficult to either create a framework or strip one down. Have to do it one field at a time :-( I did some work in that direction for one of our sites, but didn't complete it (they decided they didn't want it). |
18:58 | Sjeffery | I'm just going to call that job security and not think about it for a while. |
18:58 | jwagner | There's optimism for you! |
18:59 | Sjeffery | Would you happen to know the method to do a dump from Koha used by OCLC to do a batch holdings update? |
19:00 | jwagner | I don't, but various people were talking about that the other day. Don't know if there is any method yet. |
19:02 | gmcharlt | Sjeffery: there's a MARC bibliographic export tool under Tools |
19:04 | Sjeffery | That is probably it. I don't know how OCLC does it, just was curious. |

19:08 | chris_n | owen: just run perl tidy on foo.pl and then commit foo.pl create a patch and off you go |
19:09 | owen | chris_n: There aren't any particular options I need to set for it? Just run it? |
19:09 | chris_n | om |
19:11 | gmcharlt | owen: the file xt/perltidyrc (sp?) has the canonical options |
19:11 | Sjeffery left #koha | |
19:11 | owen | gmcharlt: I have no idea what that means |
19:12 | gmcharlt | owen: ok, lemme try again |
19:12 | :) | |
19:12 | from the koha root | |
19:13 | perltidyc --pro=xt/perltidyrc name_of_file_you_want_to_tidy | |
19:14 | that creates a new file with a .tdy extension, which you can then check and move into place | |
19:14 | alternative, add a -b switch to edit the file in place; that will create a backup with a .bak extension | |
19:17 | owen | gmcharlt: "perltidyc" or "perltidy" ? |
19:17 | gmcharlt | sorry, just perltidy for the command |

19:26 | everything I tried worked perfectly | |
19:26 | chris_n | wizzyrea: tnx :-) |
19:26 | jwagner | I think we need Good Citizen awards, to give to people who make these nice major contributions :-) |
19:26 | wizzyrea | Yes... I agree |
19:26 | chris_n | I have two outstanding issue, which I hope to fix over the weekend or early next week |

19:35 | biglego | Okay I've been playing with the following files trying to get a new tool link to appear |
19:35 | intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/tools/tools-home.tmpl | |
19:35 | intranet-tmpl/prog/en/includes/tools-menu.inc | |
19:35 | I've edited existing stuff I've added my own stuff and no change | |
19:35 | On a hunch I renamed them and the tools page still appears in my web browser. Obviously my tools page is not generated from where I think it should be. Ideas suggestions? | |
19:35 | seneca joined #koha | |
19:36 | wizzyrea | erm, did you duplicate your templates? |
19:36 | bigbrovar joined #koha | |
19:36 | wizzyrea | are you using the right set? |
19:36 | (in the sysprefs) | |
19:36 | seneca | Does anyone know if there is a way to renew all patrons at once? |
19:37 | bigbrovar | Hi guys.. is there a way I can configure the internet aware tools in koha to work on an intranet server behind a network proxy |
19:38 | * wizzyrea | is not aware of any "Batch renew" functionality |
19:38 | wizzyrea | *batch renew *patrons* |
19:38 | internet aware tools such as z39.50? | |
19:39 | owen: the interface looks *really* good. You have been busy, and it shows. | |
19:39 | owen | Thanks wizzyrea! |
19:39 | jdavidb left #koha | |
19:39 | wizzyrea | I think 3.2 is shaping up quite nicely |
19:40 | * owen | has gone down a rabbit-hole of template changes today which seems to be getting deeper |
19:40 | wizzyrea | yikes |
19:41 | bigbrovar | wizzyrea: yeah |
19:42 | seneca | Hmm... then I'll ask my other question: |
19:42 | When I have new accounts made automatically from my LDAP source upon patron login, it creates their account but does not give them Expiration dates | |
19:43 | therefore, the account can't check anything out. Any ideas why this happens? | |
19:43 | Colin left #koha | |
19:43 | biglego | wizzyrea where at in sysprefs? |
19:43 | wizzyrea | biglego: 1s let me find the name of the pref |
19:44 | seneca | I don't think this was the behavior before I recently upgraded, but I can't find any setting for it that might have been changed. |
19:44 | wizzyrea | appearance -> template |
19:44 | by default it's prog | |
19:44 | braedon|work | seneca: you could do a "batch renew" manually with sql |
19:44 | seneca | hmm |
19:44 | do you happen to know the table, column? | |
19:45 | braedon|work | not off the top of my head |
19:45 | * wizzyrea | should clarify, there's no web interface way to batch renew |
19:45 | braedon|work | would guess borrowers table |
19:45 | seneca | I'll go looking - thanks! |
19:46 | chris | ok back for a little bit at work, before the taxi to the airport |
19:47 | bigbrovar | Hi guys.. is there a way to set up the internet aware tools in koha to work on an intranet server behind a network proxy (squid) |
19:47 | biglego | wizzyrea i'm on 3.04 i have theis "template" "Define the preferred staff interface template" in system preferences -> admin, but no appearance |
19:50 | richard joined #koha | |
19:50 | richard | hi |
19:50 | braedon|work | bigbrovar: you would need to configure the proxy to let the services you need through - not much you can do from the tool end (assuming the proxy is any good at what it does). What is the proxy set to let through/block? |
19:52 | slef left #koha | |
19:52 | bigbrovar | braedon|work: well all internet traffic http(s) and ftb have been routed to go through an http_proxy server. so port 80 has been blocked from the firewall |
19:52 | davi left #koha | |
19:53 | bigbrovar | braedon|work: the only way to connect to internet is to setup the proxy in my env or configure the internet app to use the proxy. (if it has such settings) |
19:54 | braedon|work | is the proxy acting as a gateway to the internet? ie, does all traffic on any port have to pass through it z39.50 |
19:54 | oops, ignore the z39.50 | |
19:54 | bigbrovar | braedon|work: exactly |
19:54 | braedon|work | ok |
19:55 | bigbrovar | braedon|work: the proxy is the gate way to the internet |
19:56 | nengard left #koha | |
19:58 | bigbrovar | braedon|work: so any tip? |
19:59 | braedon|work | the servers you are connecting to with z39.50 determine the port you need to use, obviously. I don't see an easy way around it other than asking your sys admin to allow access through the proxy on the ports required, for the conputer you are using |
19:59 | brendan joined #koha | |
20:00 | braedon|work | you could set up a tunnel to a computer you control past the proxy, but that requires the proxy to allow ssh |

20:00 | wizzyrea | yea, a targeted firewall rule just for the ILS server is what you need |

20:13 | chris | in system preferences |
20:14 | biglego | what am i looking for is system preference language? |
20:14 | chris | yeah, in the opac and the staff bits |
20:14 | the other option, is mv the en-NZ dir out of the way :) | |
20:15 | biglego | its got en selected for staff and opac |
20:17 | chris | right, what does your browser have selected as its preference? |
20:17 | (that will override) | |
20:18 | wizzyrea | hey, I win! there was an alternate set of templates you were using :) |
20:18 | not in the way I thought... but oh well | |
20:18 | chris | probably the easiest way for now, is just to mv the en-NZ ones out of the way |
20:20 | biglego | says english, cool i'll move them thought I was going insane point wizzyrea |

20:30 | i checked the install log and en is the choice selected | |
20:30 | chris | and your locale is not en-NZ |
20:30 | ? | |
20:30 | it might be the code that tries to pick your language has a bug | |
20:31 | wizzyrea | oh, 3.0.4, maybe get 3.0.5? |
20:31 | biglego | LANG=en_US.UTF-8 |
20:31 | chris | weird |
20:32 | biglego | once I mv en-NZ to cursed-en-NZ it picked up my addition |

20:35 | biglego | In the tools-home.tmpl and tools-menu.inc I see this before every link example <!-- TMPL_IF NAME="CAN_user_tools_inventory" --> |
20:35 | Do I need to create <!-- TMPL_IF NAME="CAN_user_my_tool" --> somewhere? Hopefully language doesn't come into play | |
20:35 | right now I'm using <!-- TMPL_IF NAME="CAN_user_tools_inventory" --> | |
20:37 | owen | biglego: You're adding a new tool, is that right? |
20:37 | biglego | yeah |
20:37 | gmcharlt | biglego: there's a bit more to it - http://lists.koha.org/pipermai[…]ruary/005541.html - is an example of what's need to create a new permission |
20:38 | owen | the other option being it could share the same permission as another tool if it made sense |

21:30 | chris | yep |
21:36 | wizzyrea | can anybody speak to the kind of load a, say 10-15 minute hold queue generation schedule would incur? |
21:37 | on a collection with 30 libraries and 600k+ items | |
21:37 | (god... 30... really? wow!) | |
21:38 | chris | no idea sorry |
21:41 | magnus left #koha | |
21:53 | seneca left #koha | |
21:53 | schuster | What do you mean by a 10-15 minute hold queue generation? |
21:54 | wizzyrea | i mean regenerating the hold queue every 15 minutes |
21:55 | so when you click on hold queue for your library it's been maximum 14 minutes since it was generated | |
21:56 | schuster | hmmm guess this is a standard cron job that generally only runs once a day? |
21:58 | wizzyrea | or twice a day |
21:58 | at least in our case | |
21:58 | there are some funny things caused by timing/ignoring holds from the pick list | |
21:58 | that I think might be mitigated by running the hold queue more often | |
21:58 | but it would probably not be optimal for performance >.> | |
21:59 | chris | what you could od |
21:59 | do even | |
21:59 | is run the holds queue on a slave db, and make koha use it | |
21:59 | for that report | |
21:59 | but that would involve trickery | |
21:59 | wizzyrea | gl getting that setup in our state of the art cloud environment |
22:00 | (even though that would probably make it easier to do) | |
22:00 | chris | heh yeah |
22:00 | wizzyrea | I can concieve of a method of doing it in EC2, but I don't have the keys to our system (literally) |
22:01 | i like trickery >.> | |
22:04 | schuster | mines set to run ?hourly 52 in the cron job. |
22:05 | wizzyrea | I think we might have started out running it that often... not sure why we stopped |
22:05 | schuster | On my test system it took hardly no time to run so I don't think it would be a huge performace killer. |
22:05 | wizzyrea | yea, you'd be a good test case, you have zillions of items :) |
22:05 | schuster | And if you are clouded performance isn't your issue! |
22:05 | wizzyrea | you would think that... |
22:06 | we have more issues than they like to admit | |
22:06 | schuster | I've messed with my system if you remind me on Tuesday I can restore it and run it again. we have 1.2 million items, but not everyone is doing holds. |
22:07 | wizzyrea | I'm going to have to think more about what I discovered today about the holds |
22:08 | schuster | You have those fancy holds patches as well that I may not have... that may impact this as well. |
22:08 | wizzyrea | most of those are in community, 3.0.5 I thought |
22:08 | certainly we had all of that done by last june | |
22:09 | I was verifying that http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/b[…]w_bug.cgi?id=3595 | |
22:09 | munin | 04Bug 3595: normal, P5, ---, gmcharltgmail.com, NEW, Items seen at checkin should always go to 1st priority hold |
22:09 | wizzyrea | was still a problem |
22:09 | and it is | |
22:09 | schuster | How nice for you... I'm not there... I think I'm 3.01.032? or 36 |
22:09 | wizzyrea | oh we're close to you |
22:09 | do you have the local holds stuff? | |
22:09 | b/c that's what we had done | |
22:09 | schuster | Ah... I'm working on getting a 3.2 instance up and running with a copy of my production database and maybe that will be done tomorrow. |
22:10 | wizzyrea | we are at 37 on our production |
22:11 | but I was playing in 117 | |
22:11 | schuster | I can't remember if I got local holds or not that you are talking about. Seems like I got some but not all? I'd have to go back and look again. I don't think I got everything as localholds is still an issue for us. |
22:11 | wizzyrea | it's still an issue for us too |
22:11 | schuster | well - off to drive in the snow - 30 minutes any bets on how long it will take me to get home tonight? |
22:11 | wizzyrea | some things still don't work very well |
22:11 | but I believe all are reported as community bugs | |
22:11 | schuster | Driving to work this morning - snow not frozen - 45 mpg zone people driving 20... augh... |
22:12 | wizzyrea | yikes |
22:12 | schuster: we haven't gotten the fixes that were promised us to be done in september. | |
22:12 | for local holds | |
22:12 | schuster | tomorrow will be the true test how frozen things are in the morning... you will probably hear a lot from me as I am betting school will be called and then Saturday it is supposed to get up to 50 degrees - wet and mushy... |
22:13 | wizzyrea | mmmm mushy |
22:13 | schuster | yes I have paid for things that I have not gotten yet either... has someone talked to John Yokely from your institution about that? Make sure they are on the development list to be done. |
22:13 | wizzyrea | idk, my boss has a list of concerns that he is sending |
22:14 | i'm sure stuff we've paid for and not gotten is on it | |
22:14 | as well as "for god's sake don't make us do LEK" | |

23:48 | braedon|work | hi there |
23:49 | Genji | question, getRecord retrieves results async'ly... meaning server 1's results could get processed after server 2's results are processed by the ZOOM::event while loop, correct? |
23:53 | so to try and tack the second query results under the first query results could end up with the second query results on top of the first query results? | |
