| 03:17 | akSeya | hi there again | 
| 03:18 | here is my koha-http.conf that i'm using on gentoo http://dpaste.com/206951/ | |
| 03:19 | apache is working fine, but when I "activate" this file, I get "You don't have permission to access / on this server." | |
| 03:21 | addicionaly, koha-opac-error_log says: client denied by server configuration as may be seen here (http://dpaste.com/206952/) | |
| 03:23 | what am I missing?! :( | |

| 07:37 | chris | hi paul | 
| 07:38 | paul | hi chris | 
| 07:38 | french was heavily beaten by south africa last week end ... | |
| 07:40 | chris | as bad as nz beat ireland? | 
| 07:42 | * paul | now registered & logged in | 
| 07:42 | chris | cool | 
| 07:43 | paul | chris 42 - 17 | 
| 07:43 | larsw | 42-17 sounds like basketball... | 
| 07:43 | paul | larsw, lol, but it's rugby, really | 
| 07:44 | chris | 66-28 | 
| 07:44 | both bad :) | |
| 07:44 | paul | AUS 27 - 17 ENG | 
| 07:44 | 3-0 for southern countries ! | |
| 07:45 | fortunatly, in soccer, france will beat everybody. | |
| 07:45 | chris | hehe | 
| 07:45 | paul | mmm... who is lol ? everybody ? well, you're right | 
| 07:45 | we will probably stay in South Africa just a few more days... | |
| 07:46 | soccer as well as rugby teams. Maybe they could take the same plane to lower the cost... | |
| 07:47 | chris | heh | 
| 07:47 | the all blacks are wearing all white this weekend in support of our soccer team | |
| 07:47 | paul | it was not very successfull... | 
| 07:47 | (but not as bad as for aussies ;-) ) | |
| 07:48 | chris | yes | 
| 07:48 | germany++ | |

| 07:49 | paul | in france, we used to say : "world soccer cup, it's a competition where a lot of ppl play soccer, good or very good, and, at the end, germany wins" | 
| 07:49 | chris | heh | 
| 07:49 | kf | :) | 
| 07:49 | chris | larsw: have the heater on tonight? cold southerly coming in | 
| 07:49 | larsw | chris, aye | 
| 07:50 | paul | rough translation. better one : "soccer, it's 22 men running after a round ball and trying to score a goal, and, at the end, germany wins" | 
| 07:50 | larsw | we won't be cold, I got my benchmark machine up and running and it's burning the cpu all night now :) | 
| 07:50 | chris | :) | 
| 07:50 | kf | not sure we will win, but it was a good start yesterday | 
| 07:51 | Elwell | meh, roll on next years 6 nations :-) | 
| 07:51 | paul | chris : in soccer, germany/france, it's like nz/aus in rugby ! | 
| 07:51 | our best ennemies | |
| 07:52 | * paul | has found the traveling to auckland will cost 1800� and take 30 hours (for each of us) | 
| 07:52 | chris | is that return? | 
| 07:53 | because that seems like a lot | |
| 07:53 | it cost russel and i a lot less than that to get to france (took longer than 30 hours tho :)) | |

| 15:50 | librarian | hello, can someone tell how best to update Koha or can point me in the right direction | 
| 15:51 | I'm going to update koha 3.0.1 to 3.0.6 but I can't be any documentation on how to update ... Am I suppose to install it all over again? | |
| 15:52 | *I can't find any | |
| 15:53 | wizzyrea | you should be able to download the new package, unzip it, then run the installer and ask to "upgrade" | 
| 15:53 | which should preserve your koha-conf and zebra settings and whatnot | |
| 15:54 | caveat: I haven't done it, because I use dev installs and do updates through git | |
| 15:58 | sekjal | librarian: if you've downloaded 3.0.6 in a compressed folder, and you're doing a production installation, you can find upgrade instructions in the INSTALL files included in the download | 
| 15:58 | the instructions consist of: | |
| 15:58 | perl Makefile.PL --prev-install-log /path/to/koha-install-log | |
| 15:58 | make | |
| 15:58 | make test | |
| 15:58 | sudo make upgrade | |
| 15:59 | librarian | thank you so much |

| 16:39 | Owner | hi folks | 
| 16:39 | I am installing koha for an ngo | |
| 16:40 | they have succesfully entered some items | |
| 16:40 | they are running 3.0.6 | |
| 16:40 | Sharon joined #koha | |
| 16:41 | Owner | when they go to create a batch to print labels we cannot get the results for all items added between certain dates | 
| 16:41 | any ideas? | |
| 16:41 | I checked the documentation | |
| 16:42 | by I can't kind the syntax to add all items added between a certain date | |
| 16:45 | wizzyrea | so you clicked add items to batch | 
| 16:45 | librarian | i have the same problem | 
| 16:46 | wizzyrea | and you see "barcode", added on or after and added on or before | 
| 16:46 | and if you put a date in each, it returns nothing? | |
| 16:46 | Owner | yes | 
| 16:47 | if I select barcode | |
| 16:47 | wizzyrea | sadly it works in both systems I have access too, but neither are exactly 2.0.6 | 
| 16:47 | 3.0.6, i mean | |
| 16:47 | to* | |
| 16:47 | wow that was a typo festival | |
| 16:47 | Owner | I went with the latest stable | 
| 16:47 | brendan_o joined #koha | |
| 16:48 | Owner | iI don't know what I should do | 
| 16:48 | as they have already entered items | |
| 16:48 | now we are unable to do a batch | |
| 16:48 | wizzyrea | is the window behind your main window? | 
| 16:48 | librarian | yeah, i started doing it individually by searching by titles | 
| 16:49 | Owner | it is a popup | 
| 16:50 | doing it manually | |
| 16:50 | is unreasonable | |
| 16:50 | is there s workaround? | |
| 16:50 | wizzyrea | sorry, I can't help you with that I'm not running your version. | 
| 16:51 | Owner | what are my options? | 
| 16:52 | librarian | last resort would be to pay for help | 
| 16:52 | Owner | they are an ngo | 
| 16:52 | there is no budget for this | |
| 16:52 | I am just doing this pro bono | |

| 17:08 | Owner | not that I am aware of | 
| 17:09 | I would have to go within the database | |
| 17:09 | librarian | there must be way to spit out all the info from the database using another mysql interface | 
| 17:13 | have you tried phpmyadmin | |
| 17:20 | wizzyrea | you can also get csv output from the guided reports wizard | 
| 17:21 | Owner | there is an issue with that |

| 22:11 | joetho left #koha | |
| 22:12 | bugweiser | Hi. I have a "library," which right now consists of some shelfs with a bunch of books, with no organization whatsoever. I own a barcode scanner, several windows machines and a headless desktop that I plan to use as a server. Is Koha a good place to start for me? | 
| 22:14 | I need to track circulation, and I have books with multiple copies. I'd like to be able to simply use the ISBN label that is already on the books as the circulatory ID for the book. | |
| 22:15 | larsw | bugweiser, it sounds like Koha might do the job for you, yes (I don't know about details, I'm too new to this stuff myself) | 
| 22:16 | bugweiser | Oh, and I don't need differentiation between the different copies. In other words, say I have 5 copies of The Jungle Book. Lets say Bill takes out one copy for a 2 week term, and then a week later Jack takes out another copy, for a 2 week term as well. I don't care which copies they all have (i.e., Bill has copy B and Jack has copy E) | 
| 22:16 | I just need to the inventory system to be able to inform me that there are presently 3 copies on the shelves, 1 copy that Bill has out, due back in a week, and | |
| 22:16 | another that Jack has out, not due back for 2 weeks. Also I'd want to be able to cross reference books to patrons, in other words to be able to pull up Jack's file and see that he presently has 2 books out, The Jungle Book and The Fantasic Mr. Fox and when each is due. Other extras such as email notifications to Jack when his books become overdue with optio | |
| 22:17 | s to copy an administrator or something would be nice but those are the two essential things I need. I don't even NEED to be able to find the | |
| 22:17 | physical location of the book on the shelves, really, although it would also be nice. | |
| 22:17 | larsw: Hi. :) | |
| 22:17 | chris | yeah koha will do all that in more, koha might in fact be overkill for you | 
| 22:17 | s/in/and/ | |
| 22:18 | bugweiser | chris: Okay, simplicity is a plus for me, but not a must. | 
| 22:19 | chris: Do you think you could give me an idea of what the setup process would be like for me? | |
| 22:20 | I.E., 1) Get a server with Debian, 2) Putz around on the command line for approx. X hours installing the server side, 3) scan ISBN barcodes on books... | |
| 22:21 | chris | install debian squeeze, use debian.koha-community.org to install koha | 
| 22:21 | larsw | bugweiser, if you can put Debian squeeze on the box, software installation is pretty easy ("apt-get install koha", plus some manual steps; see http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian) | 
| 22:21 | chris | then spend a bunch of time learning how to be a librarian | 
| 22:21 | thats going to take the longest time :) | |
| 22:22 | bugweiser | haha :) | 
| 22:22 | chris | koha has a lot of features and things like MARC that is pretty scary when first encountered | 
| 22:22 | its designed to run 'real' libraries, so while you can use it for a home one .. there's a lot to get your head around | |
| 22:22 | bugweiser | I have had SOME minimal exposure to the terminology and what not of library systems... | 
| 22:24 | What if I don't utilize all of the bells & whistles on it? | |
| 22:25 | robin | chris: looking at the archives, that patch I sent yesterday didn't appear to make it to the list - any idea why? | 
| 22:25 | chris | yep you can do that, but in order to catalogue an item you are going to have to deal with marc ... id suggest having a look at the manual | 
| 22:25 | robin: ill have a look ... you are subscribed to koha-patches eh? | |
| 22:26 | robin | yep, just have it set to nomail |

|
| 22:26 | larsw | bugweiser, a tip from a newbie: it's possible to import most of the cataloging data from public sources, for most books: the Z24352.3546313 search (can never remember the numbers) is the tool for that, highly recommended | 
| 22:27 | bugweiser | chris: where can i find the manual? |
