| 00:40 | Technicus | Hello . . . |
| 00:41 | wizzyrea | hi |
| 00:41 | wahanui | que tal, wizzyrea |
| 00:42 | Technicus | Can Koha can be use to maintain an inventory of music cd's? |
| 00:43 | wizzyrea | sure |
| 00:43 | might be overkill, but certainly it could be used | |
| 00:43 | Technicus | How do people access the catalog? |
| 00:43 | wizzyrea | over the internet, it's a web page. |
| 00:44 | Technicus | Would it be useful for a cd retailer who wants customers to be able to view the store inventory? |
| 00:45 | Or is it too much? | |
| 00:45 | wizzyrea | hmm |
| 00:45 | so I'm to understand that currently you keep no electronic inventory? | |
| 00:46 | in your store? | |
| 00:46 | Technicus | It is all book and paper. |
| 00:46 | It is not my store. | |
| 00:46 | wizzyrea | koha is for managing libraries, who don't usually do much "selling" but lots of "lending" |
| 00:47 | "the" store then :) | |
| 00:47 | yes, I think it could be used that way. You run into the usual complications of keeping your inventory up to date | |
| 00:48 | i.e. you sell something, it's up to you to remove it from the catalog | |
| 00:48 | that wouldn't happen automatically | |
| 00:48 | maybe something more like http://www.openbravo.com/product/pos/ | |
| 00:49 | Technicus | Is it possible to configure it so that it could happen automatically? |
| 00:49 | And is it possible to set it up that the store owner can scan the bar code on the cd and reach out to the internet and get disk information? | |
| 00:51 | wizzyrea | I think theoretically the answer to all of your questions is yes, but I also think that koha is not quite the tool you want |
| 00:51 | Technicus | Do you have any alternative suggestions? |
| 00:51 | wizzyrea | http://www.openbravo.com/product/pos/ |
| 00:51 | is a point of sale system | |
| 00:52 | Technicus | O yeah I missed that post . . . |
| 00:52 | wizzyrea | though that doesn't look like it has a public side |
| 00:52 | but I admit I haven't used it | |
| 00:53 | are you wanting to do something like an online shopping cart/ | |
| 00:53 | http://www.ubercart.org/ | |
| 00:53 | is more like that | |
| 00:54 | www.opencart.com too | |
| 00:55 | Technicus | The store owner does not want people to be able to purchase from the site. |
| 00:55 | wizzyrea | ah k |
| 00:55 | just a list of inventory for the site | |
| 00:55 | Technicus | He just wants people to be able to see the inventory, and then maybe give them a special discount code then they come to the store. |
| 00:56 | Yes a list of inventory that can link people to more information about the music. | |
| 01:00 | wizzyrea | i'm thinking about this :) |
| 01:04 | pianohacker | hello again |
| 01:04 | lastnode | is tehre an easy to list the koha instances that aer installed on a machine via koha-common on debian squeeze? |
| 01:07 | wizzyrea | http://www.compiere.org/ idk, I don't think koha is what you really want technicus |
| 01:07 | certainly I think it could work, but koha is for lending, not for selling | |

| 01:23 | boboy | good day! |
| 01:24 | anyone know how to configure cron settings in debian installation using 3.4.4 package? | |
| 01:27 | wizzyrea | yea, there's a crontab.example file |
| 01:27 | oh with the package | |
| 01:27 | sorry, ignore that | |
| 01:28 | boboy, any of this help?http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]e_Debian_packages | |
| 01:28 | boboy | yup.. debian package |
| 01:33 | i updated my installation using the package manager then found out that koha never indexes bibs so i suspected that something happened to my cron settings.. | |
| 01:34 | newly added bibs are not visible in the opac not like before i upgrade | |

| 10:22 | lastnode | hi cait |
| 10:23 | cait | hi lastnode :) |
| 10:23 | lastnode | could i know the proper process |
| 10:23 | for backingup using koha-dump | |
| 10:23 | ? | |
| 10:23 | i did - koha-dump, koha-remove, koha-restore | |
| 10:23 | (on the same system, to test) | |
| 10:25 | and i ran into this bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6416 | |
| 10:25 | huginn | 04Bug 6416: normal, P5, ---, robin, NEW , koha-remove fails when dropping user |
| 10:30 | cait | lastnode: sorry, I have not been working with the packages so far |
| 10:30 | magnuse and eythian are the people you might want to ask about that | |
| 10:31 | leaving a comment on the bug with what you did and what happened can perhaps also be good | |
| 10:31 | lastnode | cool |
| 10:31 | thank you | |
| 10:31 | cait: is tehrea non-package specific backup procedure? | |
| 10:32 | cait | hm |
| 10:32 | lastnode | like before thedeb packages were put together |
| 10:32 | which files do i need to backup | |
| 10:32 | cait | really not an expert in this field - my coworkers deals with backups for me |
| 10:32 | lastnode | ok |
| 10:33 | cait | I think dumping the database regularly is what you want to do at least |
| 10:33 | lastnode | ok |
| 11:13 | cait: http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]on_Debian_Squeeze do you know if this guide is current? | |
| 11:14 | koha-sites.conf is never generated during install | |
| 11:14 | cait | the best guides are the install files packaged with koha |
| 11:14 | ah, this is for the packages | |
| 11:14 | it should be quite accurate i think | |
| 11:15 | rangi | After install, edit /etc/koha/koha-sites.conf with details about your site. You may need to create this file. |
| 11:15 | cait | it seems eythian is updating it often |
| 11:15 | rangi | http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]ueeze#Quick_Start |
| 11:16 | lastnode | yeah rangi |
| 11:16 | is tehre a guideline for filling out those values? | |
| 11:16 | it would be good if it'slinked fromthere | |
| 11:16 | if there is | |
| 11:17 | cait | there is a sample file I think |
| 11:17 | rangi | its right there |
| 11:17 | at that link | |
| 11:17 | lastnode | no, i mean i have no idae |
| 11:17 | yes im there | |
| 11:17 | waht does intraport/prefix/suffix mean | |
| 11:17 | -does | |
| 11:18 | rangi | what port do you want the intranet (staff side) on |
| 11:18 | lastnode | gotcha |
| 11:18 | rangi | prefix and suffix are just that |
| 11:18 | do you want it to be | |
| 11:18 | intra-sitename.whatever | |
| 11:18 | lastnode | oh, right |
| 11:18 | rangi | or sitename-intra.whatever |
| 11:19 | lastnode | i will also need to add the intraport to /etc/apache2/ports.conf, right? |
| 11:19 | rangi | leave the defaultsql out, unless you have some |
| 11:19 | yes | |
| 11:19 | we always just run it port 80 | |
| 11:19 | lastnode | so then how do you differentiate between staff adn OPAC |
| 11:19 | if it's teh same IP | |
| 11:19 | rangi | dns |
| 11:20 | namebased virtualhosts | |
| 11:20 | lastnode | ok, i think ill use 8080 for now, no treally sure how to configure that |
| 11:20 | doesteh mysql password (root) have to be 'root' btw | |
| 11:20 | rangi | no |
| 11:20 | lastnode | those settings are in? |
| 11:20 | rangi | please dont ever set it to be that |
| 11:21 | lastnode | yes, that's what i thought |
| 11:22 | rangi | have you done this bit? |
| 11:22 | less /usr/share/doc/koha-common/README.Debian | |
| 11:24 | what you can do | |
| 11:24 | lastnode | yes |
| 11:24 | rangi | so you can either edit the file there |
| 11:24 | and put in whatever username and password you want | |
| 11:25 | make sure that file is only root readable | |
| 11:26 | or, you can symlink the debian.cnf file in /etc/mysql to be koha-common.cnf file in that same dir | |
| 11:28 | lastnode | done, rangi |
| 11:28 | maybe that was my problem | |
| 11:29 | ive created /etc/koha/koha-sites.conf | |
| 11:29 | but i have to use --configfile== to show koha-create the path | |
| 11:29 | is that theincorrect default path? | |
| 11:31 | rangi | naw, just pass it in anyway i think someone introduced a bug recently that means you always have to tell it the path |
| 11:33 | lastnode | rangi: is tehre a guide to configuring vhosts |
| 11:33 | ? | |
| 11:34 | rangi | it'll do it all for you |
| 11:34 | but yeah im sure there is on the apache website | |
| 11:34 | not really a koha thing | |
| 11:34 | lastnode | rangi: i dont plan on having a domain onmy vps for a while |
| 11:34 | so im not sure how id access the admin without a different port | |
| 11:35 | like what address would i go to | |
| 11:35 | rangi | then do it with a diff port :) |
| 11:35 | lastnode | yeah |
| 11:35 | what i figured, i just wanted to know if i was being dumb | |
| 11:35 | somehow | |
| 11:35 | thanks | |
| 11:36 | rangi | if only you were looking at it, you can do it with /etc/hosts on ur server, and your client |
| 11:39 | lastnode | rangi: just going to ask something i asked before yuou joined today |
| 11:39 | is the correct koha debian backup process | |
| 11:39 | koha-dump | |
| 11:40 | koha-remove and then koha-restore? | |
| 11:40 | (i tried it on teh same isntall adn ran into http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=6416) | |
| 11:40 | huginn | 04Bug 6416: normal, P5, ---, robin, NEW , koha-remove fails when dropping user |
| 11:40 | lastnode | apart from taht though, is that process correct? |
| 11:40 | rangi | nope |
| 11:41 | once youve removed it, you cant restore | |
| 11:41 | youd have to create | |
| 11:41 | then restore | |
| 11:41 | lastnode | right, i tried that too |
| 11:41 | ran into a ton of trouble | |
| 11:42 | (prolyl due to me doing something noob) | |
| 11:42 | but basically oncei have the tar.gz confil adn teh sql.gz db | |
| 11:42 | im good, right | |
| 11:42 | _everything_ is in that? | |
| 11:42 | rangi | you really only need the sql |
| 11:42 | thats the db | |
| 11:42 | everything that matters is in there | |
| 11:42 | lastnode | ok |
| 11:42 | so basically even if i just dump the db using koha-dump | |
| 11:43 | rangi | you could set up another koha anywhere |
| 11:43 | lastnode | then make a new koha install (even a differetnly nameed one?) |
| 11:43 | rangi | yep |
| 11:43 | lastnode | i can still import it using phpmyadmin? |
| 11:43 | ok | |
| 11:43 | rangi | you could load that file in, with koha-restore, or mysql .. or phpmyadmin if you must :_ |
| 11:43 | lastnode | right |
| 11:44 | so if there was an existing koha install running | |
| 11:44 | and i dumped another backup (of another koha db entirely) | |
| 11:44 | it would just run without a hiccup? | |
| 11:44 | rangi | you dumped it? |
| 11:45 | lastnode | sorry, imported |
| 11:45 | rangi | youd have to reindex in zebra |
| 11:45 | but then yes | |
| 11:45 | lastnode | wright |
| 11:45 | so basically, back up the sql file like my life depends on it | |
| 11:45 | and im good to go :) | |
| 11:45 | thanks rangi! | |
| 11:45 | rangi++ | |
| 11:46 | rangi | yes |
| 11:46 | i keep a weeks worth | |
| 11:46 | then a monthly one, for 6 months | |
| 11:46 | weeks worth of daily ones that is | |
| 11:46 | lastnode | i also plan onc loning my vps main disk image |
| 11:46 | cait | rangi++ |
| 11:46 | lastnode | bc im messing around with the os itself |
| 11:46 | ill be hardening the system etc. | |
| 11:49 | ok because of my lack of virtual hosts | |
| 11:49 | and my use of two ports | |
| 11:49 | my /etc/apache2/ports.conf file | |
| 11:50 | has Listen 80 and Listen 8080 | |
| 11:50 | should it also have #Name VirtualHost *:80 | |
| 11:50 | and *:8080 | |
| 11:51 | bc atm im getting This is the default web page for this server, when I try to access OPAC | |
| 11:54 | jcamins_away | lastnode: you need to uncomment NameVirtualHost *:80 |
| 11:55 | lastnode | and add *:8080 too? jcamins_away |
| 11:55 | jcamins_away | If you want to have the staff client on :8080, yes. |
| 11:56 | lastnode | it's giving me an overlap on port 80 |
| 11:56 | jcamins_away | An overlap? |
| 11:56 | lastnode | ok not anymore |
| 11:56 | but OPAC still wont load | |
| 11:56 | staff loads fine on 8080 | |
| 11:57 | jcamins_away | What URL are you using to access the OPAC? |
| 11:57 | lastnode | http://192.168.1.3/ |
| 11:57 | (it's ina VM) | |
| 11:58 | jcamins_away | Ah-ha. There's your problem. |
| 11:58 | When accessing by IP, you can only have one VirtualHost per port. | |
| 11:59 | lastnode | ok |
| 11:59 | but that's what i have | |
| 11:59 | jcamins_away | So you'll have to disable the default site or start using a name. |
| 11:59 | kmkale joined #koha | |
| 11:59 | lastnode | got it jcamins_away |
| 12:00 | jcamins_away | Here's what I do (I do all my Koha work on VMs): I have subdomains configured in /etc/hosts on my *laptop* which point to the VMs. |
| 12:00 | lastnode | jcamins++ |
| 12:00 | jcamins_away: no,illneed to run it as an ip for a while | |
| 12:00 | until it's stable enough for school to set dns from library. | |
| 12:01 | i disabled default | |
| 12:01 | works great now :) | |
| 12:01 | thank yuou very much | |
| 12:01 | jcamins_away | Excellent! :) |
| 12:01 | You're very welcome. | |
| 12:01 | lastnode | timeto buy taht linode i guess |
| 12:02 | jcamins_away | :) |
| 12:03 | lastnode | jcamins_away: where is the public_html directory of teh koha install? |
| 12:03 | that's where id want to have my script send sql dumps to | |
| 12:03 | so i can wget from my other server | |
| 12:04 | jcamins_away | There is none. |
| 12:04 | lastnode | oh hrm |
| 12:04 | jcamins_away | (by default) |
| 12:05 | lastnode | so ill have to scp or something |
| 12:05 | jcamins_away | I'd definitely recommend scp. |
| 12:06 | If you really want to use wget, you could set up a directory Alias in the koha-httpd.conf file. | |
| 12:06 | lastnode | gotcha |
| 12:07 | jcamins_away: im just gonna get a vps. is it cool if i bother you intermittently if i run into any issues? | |
| 12:07 | (setting up koha there) | |
| 12:09 | jcamins_away | I'll only be here on-and-off, but, yeah, just shout if you've got a question. |
| 12:31 | lastnode | jcamins_away: mailname of my system |
| 12:32 | doestn really matter atm right | |
| 12:32 | yeah, i guess i can edit all taht later, oncei get a domain | |
| 12:32 | *subdomain | |
| 12:33 | jcamins_away | Right. |
| 12:33 | Make sure that you are only listening on localhost. | |
| 12:34 | (otherwise you could become a spam relay) | |
| 12:42 | lastnode | ill probably just shut it down for now |
| 12:43 | jcamins_away: is it safe to use DOMAIN="" if i donthaev one? | |
| 12:43 | or shouldi use my hostname | |

| 13:22 | If that connects, you have a problem. | |
| 13:22 | lastnode | jcamins_away: where will the log be of that |
| 13:22 | jcamins_away | lastnode: run that command. |
| 13:22 | (but substitute the actual IP for ${IP_ADDRESS} | |
| 13:22 | lastnode | ohr ight |
| 13:22 | if there is no mailer listening there wont eb a log obviously | |
| 13:23 | yeah i realise it wont connect | |
| 13:23 | jcamins_away | It _shouldn't_ connect. |
| 13:23 | lastnode | i was just wondering if there was a system wide log for all connectiona ttempts |
| 13:23 | jcamins_away | But check. |
| 13:23 | lastnode | yeah, it doesnt |
| 13:23 | jcamins_away | Good! |
| 13:23 | lastnode | is there an easy way to test which ports my box IS listenign on |

| 19:50 | Emery | hello |
| 19:51 | I need help | |
| 19:52 | jcamins_away | Emery: no promises that I can provide it, but go ahead and ask your question. |
| 19:53 | Emery | ok, thanks |
| 19:53 | i have installed koha live cd (and i know almost nothing, some things in terminal code) it is version 3.2 and i want to upgrade it to the current version | |
| 19:54 | jcamins_away | Did you install the live cd onto your hard drive? |
| 19:54 | Emery | yes |
| 19:55 | jcamins_away | Good. :) |
| 19:55 | Emery | i figured i should do that :) |
| 19:55 | jcamins_away | You should be able to just download a more recent version, and install it over 3.2. |
| 19:56 | Emery | that is the problem, i dont know how :) as i said i know nothing, i downloaded it and got the code for upgrading but i always breaks |
| 19:56 | its, | |
| 19:56 | perl Makefile.pl --prev-install-log / .... | |
| 19:57 | but i cant get it to work | |
| 19:57 | jcamins_away | Ah. |
| 19:57 | What's the problem you're running into? | |
| 19:57 | Emery | just a sec, i have to turn it on |
| 19:57 | jcamins_away | I never used the live cd, so I'm not sure how much help I can be. |
| 19:57 | Emery | it is just koha pre installed on ubuntu 10.10 |
| 19:58 | it errors, Makefile.pl no such file or directory | |
| 19:58 | jcamins_away | Emery: oh, in that case you have to find where you unzipped the file. |
| 19:58 | ;) | |
| 19:59 | Emery | but i didnot unzip it, it came pre installed, where is the default location? |
| 19:59 | or is it talking about the one i downloaded, new version | |
| 19:59 | jcamins_away | Emery: you have to download a new version if you want to install it. |
| 20:00 | Emery | yes, do i go to where i unziped the new version ? |
| 20:00 | jcamins_away | Yes. |
| 20:00 | Emery | ok, just hold on a minute |
| 20:01 | im excited now :) | |
| 20:01 | i though noone was here | |
| 20:02 | jcamins_away | I'm only kind of here. |
| 20:02 | And I should caution you that I _never_ ues a "standard" install. | |
| 20:02 | Emery | well, that is better then not here :) |
| 20:03 | jcamins_away | s/ues/use/ |
| 20:03 | Emery | i have found the make file.pl |
| 20:04 | in my new download. | |
| 20:04 | now what do i type in terminal | |
| 20:04 | it says in manual | |
| 20:04 | jcamins_away | Yes. |
| 20:05 | Emery | perl Makefile.PL --prev-install-log /path/to/koha-install-log |
| 20:05 | jcamins_away | You have to replace /path/to/koha-install-log with the actual path. |
| 20:05 | Emery | now, i know i have to change some things, ut what parts? |
| 20:05 | thats it? | |
| 20:05 | jcamins_away | Yup. |
| 20:05 | Emery | and the new path goes to the existing kohas install log |
| 20:05 | jcamins_away | I have no idea where it might be, though. |
| 20:05 | Emery | i will search |
| 20:06 | and the new path goes to the existing kohas install log? | |
| 20:07 | jcamins_away | That is the path that you need to enter. |
| 20:07 | Emery | ok |
| 20:07 | it says Makefile.pl no such file or directory but it is there, i think | |
| 20:08 | yes | |
| 20:08 | it is | |
| 20:08 | jcamins_away | I think perhaps you need to capitalize the PL? |
| 20:08 | Emery | ok |
| 20:08 | i think it is working | |
| 20:09 | dont go anywhere :) | |
| 20:15 | :d | |
| 20:15 | :D | |
| 20:15 | i think i did it :D | |
| 20:15 | jcamins_away | Good! |
| 20:15 | Emery | Thanks for your help |
| 20:15 | just to confirm, | |
| 20:16 | i did make file | |
| 20:16 | now i typed make | |
| 20:16 | it wrote alot of things on the screen, does that mean its working? | |
| 20:17 | jcamins_away | Yes it is. |
| 20:17 | Does, rather. | |
| 20:17 | Emery | i am doing make test - it says error 255 |
| 20:17 | jcamins_away | Does it give you more information than that? |
| 20:17 | Emery | Result: FAIL |
| 20:17 | jcamins_away | Right, but does it tell you what failed? |
| 20:18 | Emery | Failed 2/26 tests |
| 20:18 | jcamins_away | What tests? |
| 20:18 | Koha has *hundreds* of tests. | |
| 20:18 | Emery | just sec |
| 20:18 | im not sure | |
| 20:19 | It says You planned 16 tests but ran 1 | |
| 20:19 | exit status 255 | |
| 20:19 | jcamins_away | Hm. |
| 20:19 | Try running sudo apt-get install libtemplate-perl | |
| 20:19 | Then run make test again. | |
| 20:20 | Emery | it says above ACCESS DENIED FOR USER KOHAADMINLOCALHOST |
| 20:20 | is that bad? | |
| 20:20 | jcamins_away | It means that you have to figure out what your password is. |
| 20:21 | Emery | i will find it |
| 20:21 | jcamins_away | You'll need to rerun the makefile, and make sure you put the correct information in. |
| 20:21 | Emery | ok |
| 20:21 | i have to plug in laptop | |
| 20:21 | i will be back in a couple mins | |
| 20:21 | if i go away i will be back soon | |
| 20:21 | like 2 min | |
| 20:22 | i amm safe | |
| 20:22 | i will re run make file | |
| 20:23 | so i need the password for kohaadmin? | |
| 20:23 | jcamins_away | The database password. |
| 20:23 | Emery | the mysql password? |
| 20:24 | jcamins_away | Yes, the password for accessing MySQL. |
| 20:24 | Emery | ok |
| 20:25 | now, it says | |
| 20:25 | Database Server [localhost] | |
| 20:25 | does that in the [ ] what it was before? | |
| 20:26 | jcamins_away | I'm not sure. |
| 20:26 | I think that's just the default. | |
| 20:26 | Emery | ok |
| 20:27 | now | |
| 20:27 | it says | |
| 20:27 | druthb joined #koha | |
| 20:27 | Emery | enter the password for the user that owns the database |
| 20:27 | kohaadmin owns the database | |
| 20:27 | do i enter kohaadmins password or the mysql password | |
| 20:28 | jcamins_away | You enter the password for kohaadmin to access MySQL. |
| 20:28 | Probably "katikoan" or something like that. | |
| 20:29 | Emery | opps, i went with kohaadmins password |
| 20:29 | we will se if it works | |
| 20:32 | fail | |
| 20:32 | ok | |
| 20:32 | trying mysql password | |
| 20:33 | ok | |
| 20:33 | that failed as well | |
| 20:33 | HELP! :o | |
| 20:34 | jcamins_away | Emery: sorry, I have no idea how to login to your database. |
| 20:34 | Emery | it has default passwords for kohalivecd |
| 20:34 | i will get link to readme for you | |
| 20:35 | if you go here http://sourceforge.net/project[…]/files/release-8/ down at the bottom it has the default passwords | |
| 20:36 | jcamins_away | It doesn't list the password you need. |
| 20:36 | Emery | it doesn't? |
| 20:36 | jcamins_away | Nope. |
| 20:36 | You need the kohaadmin password for mysql. | |
| 20:37 | Emery | hmm, i have to go in 2 min, if you think of anything or if anyone else on here knows, please email me at emery.cairnsgmail.com |
| 20:37 | jcamins_away | You'd be better off sending a message to the mailing list. |
| 20:38 | Emery | uhh.... |
| 20:38 | jcamins_away | mailing lists? |
| 20:38 | wahanui | mailing lists are at http://koha-community.org/supp[…]ha-mailing-lists/ |
| 20:38 | jcamins_away | ^^ there |
| 20:38 | Emery | they said the root password for mysql is kohasqlpwd |
| 20:39 | jcamins_away | You don't want the root password, though. |
| 20:39 | Emery | :( |
| 20:39 | what if i was the user root? | |
| 20:39 | jcamins_away | That would be a terrible idea. |
| 20:40 | Emery | oh |
| 20:40 | jcamins_away | I'm sure the developer of the live cd wouldn't do something so foolish. |
| 20:40 | :) | |
| 20:40 | It's not the user that you use, it's the user that Koha uses. | |
| 20:40 | Emery | ok, well i gotta go :( thanks for all your help |
| 20:40 | bye :) | |
| 20:40 | jcamins_away | Good luck. |
