03:01 eythian is it possible to make Koha not create a reserve for all the users on a routing list when a serial comes in?

11:50 Oak Hello druthb :) how are you?
11:50 shobe joined #koha
11:51 druthb very, very happy it is friday.
11:51 Oak ah
11:51 yes :)
11:51 shobe hi all,
11:52 got an error on  "sudo -u koha misc/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -z -b -a"
11:52 Oak syed!
11:52 shobe plz guide at which step this table is suppose to be created: stmarc_subfield_structure
11:52 yes
11:53 Oak ah nothing, just recognized the problem... :)
11:54 jcamins_away shobe: during installation. The web installer creates the database, I believe.
11:55 shobe DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Table 'kohadb.marc_subfield_structure' doesn't exist at C4/Context.pm line 852.
11:55 DBD::mysql::st fetchrow failed: fetch() without execute() at C4/Context.pm line 853.
11:55 jcamins_away shobe: did you remember to set your environment variables?
11:57 shobe yes... in        etc/bash.bashrc
11:57 jcamins_away shobe: did you go through the web installer?
11:57 shobe export KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/koha-conf.xml   export PERL5LIB=/usr/share/koha/lib
11:57 not now... i'm still in installation level
11:58 jcamins_away shobe: then why are you running rebuild_zebra?
11:59 shobe i'm following the installation steps from INSTALL.Ubuntu
11:59 did i skip this step?
12:00 jcamins_away shobe: I would reread them, because rebuild_zebra comes after you finish installing.
12:01 shobe you mean... my installation already finished
12:01 ?
12:01 jcamins_away No, I mean you didn't run the installer.
12:01 There's two parts. A script you run from the command line, and a web installer.
12:01 You missed the second part.
12:01 shobe Ok...
12:02 so how come i install that
12:02 jcamins_away INSTALL.debian may be more up-to-date.
12:02 shobe plz guide me... about web installer
12:03 kf you ahve to access intranet from your webbrowser
12:03 normally something like localhost:8080
12:03 shobe Not Found  The requested URL / was not found on this server. Apache/2.2.14 (Ubuntu) Server at localhost Port 8080
12:03 matts_away is now known as matts
12:04 shobe page not found
12:05 kf: any sugg. please
12:05 jcamins_away: any sugg. please
12:05 kf I am nto good with apache problems
12:07 jcamins_away shobe: you also skipped the step where you edit /etc/apache2/ports.conf.
12:07 http://git.koha-community.org/[…]3043908fc;hb=HEAD
12:07 Go through INSTALL.debian, and make sure you followed all the steps (that was a link to INSTALL.debian I just copied in)
12:07 That's my guess.
12:07 But I don't generally work with Apache.
12:08 (one of my coworkers does)
12:08 shobe thank jcamins_away , i got it
12:08 jcamins_away shobe: was I right?
12:09 shobe let me go-through my mistakes... then back to you
12:09 jcamins_away Okay.
12:10 shobe might be you are right :) ..... I'm new on Debian+Apache+Perl
12:10 that's why facing many problems... but i'm trying to find the solutions
12:10 thanks for your support

15:58 sekjal left #koha
15:58 jcamins_away library_systems_guy: what's up?
15:59 SJeffery Is there a description of what exactly frameworks influence within koha vs item types?
15:59 cait joined #koha
15:59 jcamins_away SJeffery: frameworks control the MARC tags that are available. Item types are for items, and control circulation.
15:59 Oak heya cait !
16:00 library_systems_guy jcamins_away I wanted to add the shelving location to the opac-results page
16:00 and I can do it in normal mode
16:00 but I can't figure out the variable name to use in the style sheet
16:00 SJeffery jcamins, so if frameworks control what marc tags are available, do they also control what is visible in any way (ex: importing a map as a book type framework that might have more fields than the framework displays by default)?
16:01 jcamins_away SJeffery: what fields are visible in the cataloging editor, yes. But the default framework is the most complete.
16:01 library_systems_guy: the XSLT just uses xslt. No variables.
16:01 library_systems_guy I know i am wording it wrong
16:01 ...umm
16:02 there is a loop that selects items:homebranch
16:02 and I was hoping to select items:location
16:02 but nothing comes back :'(
16:02 jcamins_away library_systems_guy: ah.
16:03 You mean, where is it stored in the XSLT.
16:03 library_systems_guy i suppose so?
16:03 jcamins_away I'm looking.
16:04 library_systems_guy thanks jcamins_away
16:04 cait hi Oak :)
16:04 Oak :)
16:04 jcamins_away library_systems_guy: it's not available.
16:05 library_systems_guy aww
16:05 poo
16:05 jcamins_away You'd have to add it to C4/XSLT.pm.
16:05 library_systems_guy so where did you look to see if it was stored in xslt
16:05 ahh
16:05 ok
16:05 that is the module i was looking for :)
16:05 jcamins_away C4/XSLT.pm has a buildItemsNamespace method.
16:06 library_systems_guy gotcha
16:06 ok ill play around with it
16:06 jcamins_away++
16:06 oleonard Thanks jcamins_away. library_systems_guy, you got the better help :)
16:11 xercode left #koha
16:12 SJeffery jcamins: to be clear, if we were to import marc records (oclc or whatever) of all types (books, maps, videos, etc) as a default framework, that should not affect the display in the opac?
16:13 cait no, I think there is only one place where it has an effect currently
16:13 keyword-to-marc-mapping for subtitles
16:13 but I think it only works for normal view result list in intranet (might be wrong about that)
16:14 oleonard keyword to mark mapping for subtitles works in many places, but not everywhere
16:14 jcamins_away SJeffery: that is correct.
16:14 oleonard: unless you're using XSLT.
16:14 oleonard: and SJeffery is.
16:14 SJeffery: you are, right? You should be, since you have so many analytics.
16:15 SJeffery um, I don't know? I hope so?
16:16 Phew, yes, I am using xslt
16:16 Though unfortunately, that means all analytics are displaying with a book icon *sigh*
16:17 jcamins_away SJeffery: that means you have your leader wrong.
16:17 nengard joined #koha
16:17 jcamins_away SJeffery: http://donum.numismatics.org/c[…]pl?biblionumber=5
16:17 (that's what it should say, "Type: Article")
16:18 (but it will only say that if your leader is correct)
16:18 SJeffery Yup, it must have happened during conversion. Another batch change coming up:D
16:18 nengard left #koha
16:23 jcamins_away oleonard: did you figure out the colspan thing.
16:24 oleonard I think so, although hdl and I submitted competing patches.
16:24 wizzyrea I think yours was better, oleonard, since it actually addressed the real problem

16:43 SJeffery I would take ALA over SLA, but unfortunately need to go to SLA for work
16:43 Brooke ALA and SLA are both sluts, I'd go for a nice clean gal like LIANZA
16:44 * jcamins_away was told to go to ALA.
16:44 * oleonard can hear the sound of cracking whips in the background
16:44 SJeffery I was hoping some of you guys would show up at SLA, but only Nicole did (and I never did get to say hello)
16:45 Brooke pro tip: charge less if you want more people to show ;P
16:45 jcamins_away SJeffery: I would've, except I was in Budapest.
16:45 Brooke how was that, anyway?
16:45 jcamins_away Brooke: SLA or Budapest?
16:45 Brooke two rivers still doing their thang?
16:46 SJeffery Brooke: We wish it were so. It is the conference locations that charge an arm and a leg (plus the naming rights to your firstborn) to do anything.
16:48 Oak oh dear Brooke I welcome thee. how is you?
16:48 Brooke hehehe
16:48 you're a hoot oak
16:48 I'm grand thanks, and yourself?
16:48 staying cool in that ridonkulous heat?
16:48 Oak :)
16:49 i'm good thank you kindly
16:49 Brooke :D
16:49 Oak yup

16:50 Brooke ooooohh ho ho
16:50 you best get to conference then
16:50 Oak hehe
16:51 * jcamins_away had forgotten about putting in the header "Abandon hope, all ye who enter" on the Koha wiki page on Zebra indexing.
16:51 * Brooke has Trampled Under Foot playing in her head now...
16:52 Oak :]
16:53 jcamins_away Okay, time to find someone to have lunch with.
16:53 Oak need a wing man?
16:54 jcamins_away Oak: you're at ALA, aren't you?
16:54 * jcamins_away isn't.
16:54 Oak nope
16:54 Brooke hmmm tempting to sample that into a really mopey flute riff just to see if folks are listening...
16:56 SJeffery jcamins, is it 007/a that sets something as an article analytic?
16:57 jcamins_away SJeffery: no, it's in leader. 000.
16:57 Lemme check.
16:57 LDR/07.
16:58 Oh, you meant 07=a.
16:58 Right.
16:58 Yes.
16:58 Carry on.
16:58 ;)
16:58 Okay, now I'm really leaving.
16:58 Bye!
16:58 Oak take care jcamins_away
16:58 SJeffery Thanks!

18:52 oleonard qr codes: lame or useful?
18:54 druthb oleonard: yes.
18:54 oleonard My impression of them is slightly tainted by being old enough to remember CueCats
18:55 (an idea before their time I guess)
18:56 cait I don't have a phone that can read qr codes - so I find them pretty useless
18:56 there was some discussion about qr codes on the german mailing lists
18:56 * druthb has a modified CueCat reader, which she uses in trainings, and other things.
18:56 cait sime ideas were quite nice
18:56 druthb: I have one too!
18:56 oleonard That's the other barrier to my considering them useful: I live in an area too poor for smart phones to be common
18:56 druthb for light-duty, they're kinda nice.
18:56 cait one library puts qr codes with the addresses of databases on the shelfs of the matching subject
18:57 oleonard cait: That's best idea I've heard so far
18:57 I have a CueCat reader that I'm looking for a good home for
18:58 cait let me dig out the blog post
18:58 someone did a summary
18:59 http://log.netbib.de/archives/[…]arischen-einsatz/
18:59 links to mobile catalog as qr codes
19:00 library_guy joined #koha
19:00 cait qr codes on book signs, advertising the ebook collection (link to the ebook of the book I think)
19:00 library_guy seen jcamins_away
19:00 wahanui jcamins_away was last seen on #koha 2 hours, 2 minutes and 4 seconds ago, saying: Bye! [Fri Jun 24 16:58:27 2011]
19:01 library_guy so I added an items location to the opac-search page but I know that not everybody is going to want that so I am guessing it would be a system pref?
19:01 cait and a lot of other ideas
19:07 NateC joined #koha
19:16 aogle joined #koha
19:28 cait library_guy: yeah; I think it should
19:29 having a possibility to get rid of the call number would be nice too
19:29 I have alibrary asking for it
19:30 bug 5145 :)
19:30 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5145 enhancement, P5, ---, oleonard, NEW , Call number in XSLT availability information
19:30 cait so I am biased
19:31 library_guy well I am already in there and added what I need...I just don't know the coding standard for adding a preference :'(
19:31 nengard joined #koha
19:31 cait oh
19:31 it's not so hard
19:31 it's a little writing work
19:31 library_guy now that I think about it i think what you want a pref for is right next to what i added
19:31 oleonard http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]ystem_Preferences
19:31 library_guy thanks oleonard
19:32 cait ah
19:32 forgot we had that page :)
19:32 oleonard++
19:32 library_guy im glad we do :)
19:32 oleonard++
19:32 ok so ill see if i can get that pref in with mine cait
19:32 oleonard ++ to all the people who made that page

20:10 library_guy cool :)
20:11 cait don't worry to much about it
20:11 library_guy its the least i can do, I mean im already adding my pref so i might as well knock out that one too :)
20:12 cait :)
