00:00 Ropuch I can still install 3.05 without a problem following the same routine
00:00 And the stem is updated
00:00 s/stem/system
00:00 chris weird
00:00 Ropuch Isn't it?
00:01 But the problem occur when trying to install on fresh system
00:02 chris its gotta be something to do with the dbd mismatch
00:02 maybe remove mysql-server etc
00:02 install libdbd-mysql-perl first, then the server after?
00:04 Ropuch Doing it right now :)
00:10 Whoa
00:11 I worked
00:12 I've apt-get remove --purge mysql-server-5.1 libhtml-template-perl mysql-client-5.1 mysql-server-core-5.1 libdbd-mysql-perl
00:12 chris interesting
00:13 Ropuch Then apt-get install libdbd-mysql=perl
00:15 And then apt-get install mysql-server
00:15 (I've removed /etc/mysql after purging it, don't kniow if it matters)
00:16 Ok, I should be sleeping for at least an hour
00:16 Good night and see you in the morning, I'll try to reproduce the error at work

01:53 Genji gotta smile at this. When i told my boss about upgrading from 3.0rc1 to 3.0.x head: "i don't think we will get a lot from upgrading. the version we upgrading to is not a major change from what we already have."
01:54 chris heh, only about 500 bugfixes is all
01:54 Genji ya.. i said.. the major changes are hidden, because they are bugfixes. not feature upgrades. we won't 'gain' new features, but fix broken thngs... one of them might be the 700 field resaving problem.
01:59 which is the correct thing to say yes/
01:59 ?

08:10 paulab joined #koha
08:12 paulab Hi!
08:17 I have a question about Koha fines. I set Koha to make patrons to pay a fee each month, by setting an enrollment period of a month. If one month the patron doesn't pay the fee they can't loan any more.
08:18 paul_p joined #koha
08:19 paulab The problem is, I need to set up koha to keep growing the debt if the months go on and the patron still doesn't pay the monthly payment
08:20 Exist a way to doing this, or the only way is to create a script on cron, running monthly to increase patrons debt
08:20 ?

10:25 psychokiller it's a miracle
10:25 i've installed Koha !!!
10:26 Ropuch
10:26 you've written that you don't know if removing /etc/mysql after purging it
10:26 matters or not
10:27 well you have to remove it yes
10:27 remove the mysql server AND TRASH the directory TOO and THEN re install libdbd-mysql-perl and then mysql server
10:27 it worked for me
10:31 Ropuch I know
10:31 :)
10:31 I just want to be sure that installing libdb-mysql-perl before installing mysql-server solves the problem
10:32 Kivutar1 joined #koha
10:32 psychokiller NO
10:32 the problem is the FOLDER
10:33 if you dont trash the folder
10:33 it doesnt work
10:33 i did it by mistake the other way round
10:33 i first installed the server
10:33 then libdb
10:33 without trashing the folder
10:33 no good
10:33 i did it again in the right order didnt happen either
10:33 but when i trashed the folder it works
10:34 so this is in Pel language ?
10:34 oh shit
10:34 what similarities are there between perl and php ?
10:36 Ropuch I'm not a programmer so I can't tell you

10:40 Ropuch Hi chris
10:40 ;>
10:41 chris heya Ropuch :)
10:42 Ropuch I wonder if i should fill an ubuntu bug
10:42 It looks like some packaging/dependency handling problem
10:44 psychokiller the Ubuntu Lobby will be attacking you then
10:44 they are going to kidnap you in the middle of the night
10:44 and demand ransom from the koha community
10:46 Ropuch Maybe you should start to write novels instead of struggling with Koha? ;>
10:46 chris Ropuch: might be worth searching see if anyone else has reported, cos its nothing to do with koha
10:46 it would be breaking all sorts of things
10:48 psychokiller what's the admin page for koha ?
10:48 hmm cant find it
10:49 Ropuch chris: I'm finishing new Koha install one, with libdbd-mysql-perl installed first, not as a part of mysql-server dependency
10:50 http://127.0.1.1:8080
10:50 psychokiller aha
10:50 i forgot the port
10:50 and i got the user interface
10:50 instead of the admin interface
10:51 chris Ropuch: good idea
10:51 psychokiller Ropuch I once tried to file a Joomla Bug
10:51 and I got hate-mails
10:51 they started phoning in Midnight
10:51 saying YOU RE GOING TO DIE
10:51 and then hung up
10:51 Ropuch psychokiller: what can I say: maybe you've done it wrong? ;>
10:52 psychokiller oh im kidding but what im trying to say is that the Ubuntu Guys are going to DENY it
10:52 they deny knowledge
10:52 just like in the X - Files
10:53 chris that has not been my experience
10:53 paul_p everybody say hello to alex_a, the new Biblibrian ;-)
10:53 chris hi alex_a :)
10:54 psychokiller what a Biblibrian ?
10:54 a bisexual librarian that is ?
10:55 magnus hi alex_a

10:59 chris could you login with it?
10:59 if so, then it is definitely in the file, near the bottom
11:00 psychokiller nope

11:00 chris its whatever you typed in when it asked you for it when you were installing
11:00 psychokiller aha !
11:00 kohaadmin and katikoan
11:01 there's a double a there
11:01 ok ok
11:02 Ropuch if you Complete your guide im going to translate it in Greek
11:02 and setup a blog for my thesis
11:02 or something
11:02 Ropuch Go for it
11:03 psychokiller it's not complete YET !
11:03 you have to make changes
11:03 Ropuch chris: it seems that installing libdbd-mysql-perl first doesn't fix it
11:03 psychokiller there's some cd missing and what about the last step ?
11:03 Ropuch What step?
11:04 psychokiller the one you removed libdbd and server
11:04 and then the folder etc
11:04 etc
11:04 and another thing
11:04 http://127.0.1.1:8080/cgi-bin/[…]install.pl?step=1
11:04 after this
11:04 i see a nice white screen
11:05 is that it ?
11:05 no step=2 in the way ?
11:06 chris right, sleep time for me
11:06 magnus good night chris
11:07 psychokiller right ?
11:07 only one step ?
11:07 Ropuch psychokiller: what langiage have you selected?
11:07 psychokiller greek
11:07 i better go for english ?
11:07 Ropuch At least try it
11:07 Maybe it's greek translaton issue
11:09 psychokiller well somebody has to do something with the greek translation
11:09 maybe that someone will be me in the future if you help me

11:10 Marc21
11:10 what should i install
11:10 Unimarc or Marc21 ?
11:11 paul_p left #koha
11:13 Ropuch psychokiller: it's your call
11:14 I'm using Marc21 as it's more popular in Poland
11:14 psychokiller have to check out what they use in Greece
11:17 Ropuch Oh man
11:17 ebegin left #koha
11:17 Ropuch psychokiller: i must apalogize to you
11:17 Actually all this DBD error is my fault
11:18 I/wordpress must have messed up with quotes
11:18 Remeber sudo echo "grant all on koha.* to 'kohaadmin'@'localhost' identified by 'katikoan';" | mysql -uroot -p
11:18 The quotes where escaped and we fixed that
11:18 init-connect=\'SET NAMES utf8\'
11:18 Here's the prblem
11:19 init-connect='SET NAMES utf8'
11:19 And all works just fine
11:19 I don't know where those escapings came from
11:20 You can call me at midnight and whisper death-threats for wasting your time ;/
11:21 But, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right?
11:21 psychokiller no
11:21 who said that ?
11:21 Nitzse ?
11:22 have you added the cd commandds in your guide ?
11:22 is it ok now ?
11:24 Ropuch I'm not sure where there is 'cd' missing?
11:25 I fixed init-connect part, so it shuold be ok
11:25 psychokiller on the Makefile thing
11:25 on perl
11:26 Ropuch tar -zxvf koha-3.00.05.tar.gz && cd koha-3.00.05
11:26 it's there
11:26 But
11:26 Hm
11:27 greenmang0_ joined #koha
11:27 Ropuch I can split it in two
11:27 greenmang0 left #koha
11:29 Ropuch done
11:30 case closed
11:35 psychokiller it is ?
11:35 should i make the blog?
11:36 why libraries keep using MARC and not XML ?
11:36 i think XML can do what MARC can
11:36 but i guess there are millions books already MARCed
11:36 so they'll have to XMLem from the start ?
11:38 Ropuch Yes (millions MARCed books), no ('xmling' from the start)
11:38 MARC is a standard, so any serious ILS can handle MARC records
11:39 psychokiller but lets say Poland before 1989
11:39 they didnt use MARC did they ?
11:39 that was an american system
11:40 they must have something else
11:40 Russia had MARC for its libraries ?
11:40 Ropuch What's your point?
11:40 Before 1989 it was pre-autoamization era of polish libraries
11:41 Our standard was paper catalogue card
11:41 psychokiller well it was pre -automatization pretty much everywhere
11:41 Nouman left #koha
11:41 psychokiller but CCCP should have its own machine catalogue of books
11:41 Ropuch And - as some systems were adopted - we're started on using marc
11:42 psychokiller: I don't know, I'm not an expert on MARC-adoption history in every country
11:43 psychokiller so a MARC record is printed on a book ? or is it only inside a computer ?
11:43 Ropuch Geez
11:43 psychokiller only the DEWEY record is printed in the book ?
11:43 Ropuch What you mean by DWEWY redcord?
11:44 You mean CIP?
11:44 psychokiller DDC
11:44 where you will find it in the shelves
11:44 i know thats printed on the books , just wondering if the MARC record was printed too.
11:44 Ropuch I know what a DDC is, but I'm not sure what you mean by "DDC record" ;>
11:45 psychokiller lol
11:45 the DDC number that is and letters
11:45 thats printed here in greek libraries on the side of the book
11:45 Ropuch Call number
11:45 Or Shelfmark
11:46 And if you have books sorted by DDC/UDC
11:47 They have *Dc symbol on spine
11:47 psychokiller: here's marc record example
11:47 http://photoswest.org/marc.htm
11:47 jwagner joined #koha
11:48 Ropuch I don't think you want to print it on the books
11:48 psychokiller print in on the cover
11:50 ill think ill go with MARC21
11:51 i see some digitalisations projects have used it already
11:51 here in greece

11:55 psychokiller hi collum
11:55 kentucky fried chickens ?
11:56 collum Hi, psyhokiller.
11:57 psychokiller should i go with Zebra or not ?
11:57 is Zebra's installation a pain in the ass ?
11:59 noZebra that is
12:00 collum It's fairly straight forward.  You just have to make sure you have the correct environment variables set and that it is run by your koha user.
12:01 psychokiller i will not set up zebra for the moment
12:02 so the staff interface is http://127.0.1.1:8080/
12:02 ?
12:04 collum Probably, 127.0.0.1:8080, or just http://localhost:8080
12:06 psychokiller ok
12:06 so is Koha the best LIS out there ?
12:07 or are Proprietary ones still in the lead ?

12:25 miguelxercode joined #koha
12:27 schuster owen - quick question about javascript - I see in the opac-reserve.tmpl - a call for click "when specific copy function is clicked do x..."
12:28 $(".selectspecific").click(function() {
12:28 Can I change that to an onload option so it is automatically selected?  what would I call it?  load?  it doesn't follow my standard javascript so wasn't sure what to use.
12:30 juan-xercode joined #koha
12:33 owen schuster: Checking...
12:37 jwagner Good morning, all.  Is anyone doing anything with electronic bookplates?  One of my sites is asking.  So far the possibilities seem to be an 856 link in the title record and/or the 952u link in the item record.
12:40 * owen has never heard of an electronic bookplate
12:42 jwagner owen, see the "Purchased With" link under the call number at http://josiah.brown.edu/record=b3498108~S7 -- it's probably more common in academic/research libraries.
12:42 owen schuster: My first thought is that you'll need to duplicate the contents of $(".selectspecific").click(function() on document load, but you'd have to restrict it to the holds page only
12:45 schuster so this is actually calling an external javascript?  Is that what you are telling me?
12:46 owen I don't have a complete answer on the solution schuster, but you'll have to try to accomplish it via opacuserjs...unless you can edit opac-reserve.tmpl
12:46 schuster I was looking for a quick fix to force users to make copy specific holds rather than first available as that would force local only holds.
12:46 I can edit opac-reserve.tmpl - that's what I'm playing with...  The beauty of self hosting ;)
12:47 owen That's much easier then.
12:47 schuster Document my changes well so that in the next upgrade I can either edit again or see about an enhancement.
12:48 owen Hmmm... except the $(".selectspecific").click(function() uses $(this) to pass a biblionumber...
12:49 Maybe try changing it to $(".selectspecific").each(function()
12:50 schuster That is all pretty criptic because later click - the button to place hold actually passes the biblionumber - there's a couple of click(function() on the page - that's why I was wondering if I could change that from a click to onload. but the terms are different than what I have learned so far.
12:50 learned with javascript that is.
12:54 owen Just changing it to each() doesn't work...
12:54 I'll have to think on it some more later schuster.
12:55 jwagner: That's an interesting example. My library is trying a bookplate fundraiser right now, it would be neat to be able to link to them in the OPAC

12:59 Fallor Hi #koha :)
12:59 juan-xercode left #koha
13:00 greenmang0_ left #koha
13:04 collum jwagner: What a wonderful idea. Public libraries, at least ours, mainly use bookplates for items that are purchased or donated as memorials.
13:04 It would be nice to link from the ILS.
13:06 psychokiller left #koha
13:14 jwagner Sorry, was away for a few minutes.  The main purpose for the bookplate seems to be public stroking of donors :-) but I was just talking to some of our librarians here, picking their brains.  How it's set up may depend on what else they want to get out of it -- reports for a particular donor by year, etc.
13:16 I've tried a test record, and either/or the 856 or the item uri field seem to work fine.
13:16 owen If all they needed was that link then the database of donor information could be kept separately from Koha
13:17 jwagner The item uri field seems to be indexed, but I can't figure out how to limit a search on it.  Any ideas on that?  I tried uri:searchstring but it didn't work.
13:20 jdavidb joined #koha
13:21 chris_n` jwagner: is that information the same as 952$e "Source of Acquisition"?
13:21 chris_n` is now known as chris_n
13:22 jwagner No, the 952 u, Uniform Resource Identifier
13:30 jdavidb left #koha
13:31 jwagner chris_n, I suppose it could also be in the 952e.
13:31 owen left #koha
13:31 chris_n jwagner: we use 952e to note donor sort of info
13:32 jwagner But that doesn't hot-link to another site, like an electronic bookplate, correct?
13:34 owen joined #koha
13:52 magnus hm is there any way to make electronic journals appear in the results when a search is limited to one specific branch?
13:54 jwagner magnus, I'm not sure how Koha might do it.  In Unicorn, I did some involved setup that worked.  First we created a separate branch for eresources and added item records for all of them with that branch.  Then we defined search groups for the OPAC where instead of using the individual branches, the group was defined as branch + elibrary branch.  That way limiting to the search group (transparent to user) searched both automatically.
13:54 I know there's a library group function in Koha, but I've never tried doing anything with it.
13:56 magnus thanks jwagner, i see what you are getting at, and it sounds like a solution that might work. i think there has been some problems with the library group function in koha not actually doing anything, though?
13:57 jwagner No clue on that one.  I'd like to see it work, though -- this was a tremendously useful function in Unicorn and could be for Koha too.  If an eresource is available to all users, you want to make it easy to find.
13:58 I've worked in libraries where an eresource was only available to a particular branch (separate subscriptions).  In that case, the item record belonged to the branch, not the elibrary branch.
13:58 magnus makes sense!

14:55 Ropuch ...and my patience leveled up to whole new dimension
14:56 jwagner moodaepo, I've had two cups of tea, but caffeine doesn't help :-(  It's a Monday morning, what can I say???
14:56 moodaepo Ropuch: It's hard to help someone with some many problems and even though you had a typo it wasn't your job to completely spoon feed : )
14:56 s/some many/ so many/
14:57 Ropuch moodaepo: I know, but I like challenges ;>
14:58 * jwagner thinks up ways to send new challenges in Ropuch's direction
14:58 Ropuch And I was able to seek & destroy my typo
14:59 jwagner: ;-)
15:14 schuster jwagner and magnus - I was able to use the multi-branch opac with a modification to the location to get it to search 2 locations at the same time similar to what Jane did with Unicorn
15:14 001.catalog.pisd.edu - will bring back searches for branch 001 and 901 locations - we have all our streaming and ebooks loaded into 901 location.

15:44 Sharon one of our libraries just reported that our morning holds queue report (or whatever you folks call it) didn't realize yesterday was dst.
15:45 jwagner Sharon, in what sense?  Was the job cronned to run at 2:00 AM or something?
15:45 Sharon cron job runs at 7 am, but this morning it ran at 8
15:45 francharb joined #koha
15:45 Sharon one of our libraries pulled materials at 7:40, only to have the list regenerate at 8
15:46 jwagner Sounds like the server clock didn't change times, then.
15:46 Sharon I'm told by another team member we had to send a reminder last year.
15:46 guess we shoulda done the same this year!  You'd think the server could do that on its own...
15:47 jwagner When Congress changed the dates on DST, most OS sites sent out patches for the various types of servers.  Maybe that didn't get applied to yours?
15:47 Our servers updated themselves OK.
15:47 I'll bet yours will reset itself automatically in a couple of weeks, on the old DST weekend.
15:47 But that's not a good answer.
15:49 collum The time zone package for debian is tzdata.  It probably needs to be updated.
15:50 But that's not a good answer either.
15:51 slef I don't see why the US doesn't fall in line with Europe on the DST change. We've coordinated nearly 30 countries, but the US can't coordinate one?
15:52 collum slef: Not sure why either.  To throw another wrench into the works.  It's a state by state decision.
15:52 Fallor left #koha
15:53 Sharon maybe.
15:53 I'm sending a request - we'll see if it's fixed.
15:53 in one state, it was a county-by-county decision!
15:55 jwagner The state I grew up in didn't observe DST at all.  Only practical difference was that for half the year, the TV programs were an hour later than the other half....
15:55 slef Can someone remind me how to use gitweb?  I'm trying to check if http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gi[…]a6a86d1188df3d9d8 is in current 3.0.x addressing Bug 2547
15:55 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/b[…]w_bug.cgi?id=2547 normal, P3, ---, jmf@liblime.com, NEW, $ sign in boraccount / fines / account tab
15:58 schuster So are we still using wiki.koha.org for now?  I have an enhancement/ I want some input on...
15:59 RFC type stuff.
15:59 jwagner Don't see why not.
16:00 Have you done a bugzilla on it?
16:03 schuster well what do you know...
16:03 bug 3340
16:03 munin 04Bug http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/b[…]w_bug.cgi?id=3340 enhancement, P5, ---, jmf@liblime.com, NEW, Enhancement for borrower loading command line
16:05 schuster Anyone care to comment on this?  I have a programmer who has set it up and we are testing it this week.  For the default values he has created a seperate file so in case you wanted to set default values you could or just leave the file blank
16:05 It also puts the output to a file so you can see the results later for errors etc...  Need to test that more to see what types of errors are thrown.  Currently it is loading files from what I can tell exactly as if I do it through the web interface.

18:00 Ropuch Huh
18:00 jwagner ?
18:02 Ropuch Is it possible to set up two libraries with different setting on one koha install?
18:03 One with simple aquisition, seconf with normal, budget-based
18:04 jwagner Two different instances?  Or running off the same library/MySQL database?
18:04 Ropuch One instance
18:04 jwagner I don't know, then.  Two different instances is possible.
18:05 toins joined #koha
18:05 Ropuch So maybe I'll just set up onother koha
18:05 It would be safer, as it's going to be used by non-librarian ;>

19:50 chris gmcharlt: i was switching on syndetics for hlt, found some bugs (some variables not being passed to the template)
19:51 ill send a patch later today
19:51 gmcharlt cool
19:51 chris http://opac.koha.catalystdemo.[…]iblionumber=63369
19:51 syndetics and librarything
19:55 jwagner chris, see my patch this week for Bug 4314 if you're going to be doing anything with the Syndetics and LibraryThing links.  Would hate to bump heads....

19:56 jwagner Oh, good.  I was having visions of massive merge conflicts....
19:56 On that note, see you all tomorrow!
19:56 chris the problem was SyndeticsEnabled was never being set
19:56 so the template never did anything anyway :)
19:56 jwagner Well, that's not helpful of it :-)

19:57 chris gmcharlt: did you see the mail from larsw ? any objection to him fixing up licensing statements?
19:57 gmcharlt nope
19:58 chris cool
19:58 gmcharlt no objection, that is, although not in one big batch - one per directory, I think
19:58 chris sounds good to me
19:59 larsw one per directory? hmm... ok, I can do that

21:20 gmcharlt and jwagner said as much in channel, and I believe she is hiding ... right there! ;0
21:20 jwagner Eeeep!  You spotted me!!!
21:20 gmcharlt no sooner than you did
21:20 Lee lol
21:21 jwagner The announcement just came out a few minutes ago.
21:21 Lee Well that is a HUGE surprise for me!!!
21:21 jwagner But I guess that answers the question of whether the email made it to the listserv -- I haven't seen it yet.
21:21 Lee ummm yup loud and clear
21:22 so is it effective immediately?
21:22 is Josh staying on as an consultant?
21:22 jwagner Right now I don't know anything beyond what is in the press release.  It didn't go final until I left for the day, so I'm logged in from home.  I'm sure we'll all get briefed tomorrow.
21:23 Lee ah
21:23 jwagner Everyone needs to be aware that this will NOT be a speedy process.  It's going to take time to integrate all the systems and get up to speed.
21:23 And it will also take time to get answers to all the outstanding questions on community issues.
21:24 Lee will PTFS come to KohaCon? and what about the Koha.org and trademark...
21:24 oops
21:24 typing before reading
21:25 I will be patient...I am just stunned
21:25 sorry for the deluge of Qs

21:27 Lee rock paper sissors
21:27 yeah big doings at PTFS
21:28 jwagner Things are going to be interesting over the next few months, that's for sure.
21:29 Lee it can only get better IMHO
21:30 I know the WALDO peeps are major players at LL but there are lots of us self hosted peeps too
21:31 jwagner And we'll have to get up to speed on every one of you.  chris, how are those cloning and time travel scripts coming?
