00:00 eythian It reduces typos, bundles a bunch of information together in one place, and allows it to be updated centrally.
00:00 lastnode gotcha. so is there any way i can generaet authorities from teh records i already have in the db
00:00 or do i have to do it manually?
00:01 eythian I don't know, tbh. I wouldn't be surprised to find there's a way to do it.
00:01 rangi id check they  dont have them first
00:01 if you have the syspref it will be creating them for you when you save
00:01 lastnode what is the syspref?
00:01 rangi cant remember
00:01 go look for one around authorities ;)
00:01 eythian BiblioAddsAuthorities
00:01 wahanui well, BiblioAddsAuthorities is a syspref, under Authorities
00:02 lastnode it is set to Dont allow by default?
00:02 eythian no wahanui, BiblioAddsAuthorities is a syspref that lets authorities be created automagically when you add a record.
00:02 wahanui okay, eythian.
00:02 lastnode bc i didnt change that syspref.
00:02 eythian Have a look to see what it's set to now, and you'll know.
00:03 lastnode it's set to dont allow
00:03 :(
00:03 eythian (I think it's off by default, but I never trust anyone who says "I didn't touch that!" :)
00:03 lastnode haha
00:03 ok so now that i have 100+ records with no authorities added
00:03 will turning this on and editing all of them, add authorities?
00:03 rangi youve done an authority search eh
00:03 and tested that they dont exist?
00:04 lastnode yes rangi
00:04 im searching for author names
00:06 so eythian BiblioAddsAuthorities ive set it to allow
00:06 will editing the records i have auto add records now?that seems to be what this option does, but just watn to make sure
00:06 eythian I don't know for sure, but it seems plausible.
00:06 rangi dunno if it does on edit
00:06 melia left #koha
00:06 rangi try it and see
00:07 lastnode k done
00:07 * lastnode waits for the zebra_rebuild
00:09 eythian http://www.downforeveryoneorju[…]oha-community.org :<
00:09 rangi hmm it was up this morning i was pushing to it
00:10 the mirror is up to date
00:10 eythian so, you broke it then?
00:10 rangi naw i think its a vm thats pants
00:11 http://repo.or.cz/w/koha.git
00:11 all up to date
00:11 jcamins I think it's probably time for ByWater to upgrade that server. It's been down an awful lot lately.
00:12 rangi seems to lock up hard
00:12 like i can ssh to it hard
00:12 can=cant
00:12 i wonder if something is dossing it
00:13 or making it go OOM some other way
00:13 jcamins Could be.
00:14 Shari's home, with tomato sauce, so it's time for pizza!
00:14 Good night, #koha
00:14 rangi cya jcamins_away
00:14 eythian cya
00:14 I wonder if it's possible to point a URL to gitorius. That would also give us the features it has, too.
00:15 rangi its easy enough to set up a cron to mirror on gitorious
00:15 i did it for months
00:15 https://gitorious.org/koha
00:17 i could start that going again
00:18 https://gitorious.org/koha/mai[…]ne/commits/master stopped in about june
00:18 lastnode yes, friends, that administrative setting did it
00:19 is tehre anyway to automate the edit of 100 records so authorities are added?
00:20 rangi probably, but would involve some coding
00:20 lastnode also, apart from personal name, are there other authorities i should be worried about?
00:21 rangi subjects
00:21 and genres
00:21 lastnode ok
00:21 let's hope those are imported now as well
00:22 * lastnode edits harry potter and the philosopher's stone and waits for zebra to do its thing
00:22 lastnode rangi: if you dont mind, could you refresh my memory (i asked this question before). to restore a koha-dumped sql/tar file, do i need to koha-create first?
00:22 rangi dunno
00:23 lastnode say i have exported teh 'foobar' koha install from one server. to createit on the other
00:23 do i need to koha-create foobar then koha-restore foobar.sql.gz foobar.tar.gz
00:23 rangi dunno
00:24 lastnode hrm, ok
00:24 i recall you knowing the procedure, maybe im mistaken. my bad :)
00:24 rangi i suspect not
00:24 i think you only need to create if you are just restoring the db
00:24 eythian lastnode: no
00:24 rangi from a mysqldump
00:24 eythian koha-restore I think will do the create for you
00:25 lastnode ok
00:25 thank you
00:26 i have to move koha from my vps to a school server bc school decided they dont want to pay for a vps
00:27 thus koha will only be accesible on LAN, but nvm, baby steps :)
00:27 eythian :)
00:28 lastnode how often does zebra-rebuild run by default? (cron)
00:28 eythian 15 minutes
00:28 lastnode gotcha
00:30 eythian: next to personal name, what does the RLIN field do?
00:31 eythian I think it's the field that holds a reference to the actual authority record, or something along those lines.
00:32 trea-away left #koha
00:37 lastnode hmm editing records dont seem to be adding authorities now, posibly due to RLINvalue conflict, though im not being given an error. ive rebuilt zebra but the authorities of teh recrods i edited still dont show
00:37 * lastnode waits for the cron to run anyway
00:37 lastnode i used koha-rebuild-zebra
00:38 eythian if you run it with -v it tells you more about what's happening.
00:39 lastnode eythian: think i need the full path? koha-rebuild-zebra -v gave me nothing
00:39 eythian what about with --full
00:39 it'll only do something if there's something to do
00:46 lastnode eythian: so the authorities (personal name) are added for some records when i edit, and for others no. even though all of the ones im editing have Personal Name
00:46 any idea why?
00:46 robert jordan got added twice, for one biblio item
00:51 ok it looks like koha-rebuild wasnt just rebuilding for me
00:51 the cron did it
00:59 thanks eythian rangi

09:56 huginn kf: The operation succeeded.
09:57 rangi it hasnt been updated for a while too
09:58 kf it has double entries
09:59 rangi: is it possible to configure the standard result list for bugzilla?
09:59 I keep adding patch status to all and every search, perhaps we could make it a defualt?
10:00 could replace priority
10:00 rangi not that i know of there isnt
10:00 i removed the double entries, its still a year out of date
10:01 kf ok
10:04 alex_a joined #koha
10:05 kf @later tell wizzyrea: rangi repaired it but an update would be cool :)
10:05 huginn kf: The operation succeeded.

10:06 @later tell wizzyrea rangi repaird it but an update would be cool :)
10:06 huginn kf: The operation succeeded.

10:06 @later tell wizzyrea kf can't spell tonight
10:06 huginn rangi: The operation succeeded.
10:07 kf there was a :
10:08 was not sure if he will like that or look for a wizzyrea:

10:08 huginn rangi: The operation succeeded.
10:08 kf @later tell wizzyrea and rangi can't read :P
10:08 huginn kf: The operation succeeded.

12:19 oleonard Yeah, I thought I fixed that
12:20 Bug 6640
12:20 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6640 normal, PATCH-Sent, ---, oleonard, ASSIGNED , Template errors in defining default variable values causes information not to be displayed

12:27 oleonard nengard: I thought the point of Bug 5874 was that you were *supposed* to have reports permission to access the overdues report.
12:27 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5874 enhancement, PATCH-Sent, ---, paul.poulain, RESOLVED DUPLICATE, Overdue report : Limit by date & add a new permission to restrict who can run the report
12:28 nengard oleonard 6493 is it!
12:29 oleonard, i don't think so on bug 5874 - i thought cic reports were on the circ page so that they were accessible to those with circ permissions without giving them report permissions
12:29 oleonard 6493 describes the symptoms of the problem, but 6640 deals with the root cause
12:29 nengard i have a few libraries who see it as a big bug
12:30 oleonard nengard: I'm just pointing out that someone filed 5874 because they thought it should work that way. So technically the bug is resolved, because it does what it set out to do.
12:30 nengard got it
12:31 now - did i report a bug to say that i thought it was a bug? i thought I did - but I'm so damn fuzzy and my search skills seem to be lacking right now

14:07 what does it mean?
14:08 oleonard laters?
14:08 wizzyrea oh, never mind. The crucial first @later didn't come through!
14:08 oleonard Oh, @laters
14:08 wizzyrea ^^ that
14:09 druthb Puzzler re: Diacritics and labels--if you export in PDF, diacritics get mangled.  Anyone seen this?  There aren't any bugs in BZ about labels specifically.
14:09 oleonard laters are like the IRC equivalent of getting snail mail. So exciting.
14:09 druthb: I think it's a known bug
14:10 wizzyrea druthb: that is well known to NEKLS owners of pokémon
14:10 they just know to do those labels manually
14:10 oleonard I've heard chris_n rant before about the impossibility of getting PDFs to play nice with diacritics
14:10 wizzyrea ^^
14:10 druthb Bug 2629 points at problems with searching diacritics, but there doesn't seem to be one about printing labels.
14:10 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=2629 major, PATCH-Sent, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , Diacritics not being ignored when searching
14:11 wizzyrea I think that there may not be an official bug for it, but I know chris_n is aware of the issue
14:11 and like I said, our libraries just know to make that label manually
14:11 ping chris_n
14:12 druthb hm...just as a placeholder, I think I'll open a bug to it, so I can link to it from our tracker; we've got a couple of places reporting this one.
14:13 wizzyrea yes, definitely, I will confirm that bug.
14:13 who wants to go with me testing on 553
14:13 bug 5533
14:13 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5533 critical, PATCH-Sent, ---, srdjan, ASSIGNED , marking item lost diff in two places
14:14 druthb wizzyrea++ ;  I confirmed what my new ticket was seeing by testing it on your site.  ^.^
14:14 wizzyrea woohoo!
14:16 druthb Bug 6899 added
14:16 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6899 normal, P5, ---, cnighswonger, NEW , Diacritics do not export to PDF correctly
14:20 oleonard chris_n will probably mark that "wontfix because it is unpossible"
14:21 druthb If the bug is in PDF::Reuse, that's one thing.  There's one line in C4::Creators::PDF that talks about utf8, and it's conditional; I tried making it unconditional, but that didn't change anything.
14:24 my_searching_skills--
14:24 Bug 6899 is a duplicate of Bug 2246.
14:24 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6899 normal, P5, ---, cnighswonger, RESOLVED DUPLICATE, Diacritics do not export to PDF correctly
14:24 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=2246 critical, PATCH-Sent, ---, cnighswonger, NEW , Label printing doesn't work with Unicode characters
14:25 wizzyrea oh snap that's old
14:25 kf hehe
14:25 yep
14:25 and not really solvable with pdf it seems
14:25 * kf waves
14:26 wizzyrea is this a library that does a lot of stuff with diacritics?
14:26 sekjal joined #koha
14:26 kf wizzyrea: I notices some entries on the history page were doubled up, left you a later, chris corrected, noticed it's over a year old... and chris started teasing me about my typos
14:26 wizzyrea is it actually really utterly burdensome to do the labels manually?
14:26 our libraries don't really feel that it is
14:26 at least, I haven't heard complaints
14:26 druthb For a site with very, very large foreign-language collections--such as the one I'm wrangling right now--it'd be really a problem.
14:26 kf depends on the library I guess
14:27 I thin it was discussed to do a html version
14:27 * oleonard was wondering yesterday whether it was possible to automate the creation of ODF files
14:27 kf as a way to make all things print correctly
14:27 sekjal hi, all
14:27 kf instead of using pdf
14:27 wizzyrea hi sekjal
14:27 kf sekjal will now perhap
14:27 know
14:27 wizzyrea :D
14:27 sekjal oh, dear
14:27 know what?
14:27 oleonard The answer
14:27 wahanui the answer is always go back to sleep
14:27 kf label printing with diacritics
14:27 oleonard Nice one wahanui
14:27 wizzyrea ^^
14:27 kf and plans to resolve the unicode/pdf problem :)
14:28 sekjal ah, for that we need HTML label format.  then the browser/OS can handle the Print to PDF part
14:28 wizzyrea well there is a facility for getting the data out in CSV, they could do a mail merge
14:28 sekjal since the open tools for PDF creation are... limited
14:28 wizzyrea it's not quite a perfect workflow
14:28 but it would work
14:29 sekjal chris_n has a branch-in-progress for HTML label export, but it's not quite operational yet
14:29 last estimate he had, I believe, was another 40-50 hrs work
14:29 wizzyrea urf
14:30 kf urf
14:34 sekjal if I knew a bit more about OO Perl, I may be able to throw some effort at it, but at this point, it'd probably take me twice as long as chris_n to do anything helpful
14:36 * oleonard wonders what chris_n is up to these days

14:56 sekjal hi slef

14:57 sekjal are there any special considerations I have to put into place to allow holds on 'On Order' materials?
14:57 using current master
14:57 wizzyrea oo
14:57 we have maybe some docs on that sekjal
14:57 sec
14:57 sekjal thx
14:57 oleonard ...something I should know.
14:58 wizzyrea http://www.nexpresslibrary.org[…]g-on-order-items/
14:58 now, that's not going to be current master
14:59 but, could probably be adapted.
14:59 it's the way we're using it now
14:59 iirc
15:00 sekjal ok
15:00 will read
15:00 also working on a more robust patch for 6673.... too much multitasking!
15:00 wizzyrea :)
15:01 oleonard wizzyrea: What's the authorized value for "Ordered?" With us it's -1. I think it has to be negative to allow holds.
15:01 * wizzyrea will look
15:01 oleonard sekjal: Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help with 6673
15:02 wizzyrea ours is -1 as well
15:03 sekjal oleonard:  have you read my updates from last night?
15:04 oleonard Yes. I never test using the KohaAdmin account though.
15:05 wizzyrea I'm amazed that my catalogers haven't noticed this.
15:05 sekjal hmmmm
15:05 you'll get the error message in two cases
15:05 (okay, maybe more)
15:05 wizzyrea but their workflow is on existing added items, nothing in the repository
15:05 sekjal if the new batch cannot be created, or if any of the items cannot be added to it
15:06 the new batch cannot be created if the branchcode is improperly set
15:06 the items cannot be added if the import had duplicate barcodes
15:06 or if the import was reverted

15:14 sekjal okay, updated my patch on 6673 to remove all weird usage of LoginBranchname
15:16 oleonard So what Koha consortia "charging their librarians multi-thousand dollar extraction
15:16 fees just to get their own data out!" ?
15:16 wizzyrea !!!
15:16 where did you see this?
15:17 oleonard bug 6891
15:17 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6891 enhancement, P5, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , LDIF interoperability - a proposal
15:19 wizzyrea well migrations from proprietary systems do cost money to complete?
15:19 i mean someones gotta wrangle that data into shape
15:19 and presumably they are paid to do it
15:20 NEKLS absorbs a lot of that cost for our members, but it does cost us to do, no matter the ILS
15:20 sekjal yeah, I'm going to have to call for a "cite source" on that remark
15:20 wizzyrea but
15:21 a couple thousand bucks simply to extract the data?
15:21 that seems a bit much.
15:21 my guess is he misunderstands what they're paying for.
15:21 (and it's possible the customer doesn't know either due to bad communication from the consortia)
15:22 sekjal maybe
15:22 wizzyrea I can certainly see how it would *appear* to a member library that the only work done with the library was when we come in and extract the data
15:22 sekjal probably not worth getting in a lather over
15:22 wizzyrea what they don't see is all the hours spent analyzing and refining the data to fit into a consortial system.
15:23 yea, I don't think so either.
15:23 a common format would certainly help with the hours spent analyzing and massaging, though.
15:23 gmcharlt format*s*
15:24 wizzyrea formats ;)
15:24 gmcharlt but that's just my preference for a set of small formats that each do their thing well rather than a huge unitary one
15:25 wizzyrea a common way of denoting fines and statistics would be most welcome.
15:31 nengard i'm having bug searching trouble today - my librarain skills are broken on drugs apparently - can anyone tell me if there is a bug report for the fact that you can't place holds on items that are on order? i know you used to, but now it seems to be controled by allowing on shelf holds and i wanted to update the bug report
15:32 * oleonard was not aware that it was broken
15:33 * wizzyrea either
15:35 nengard if you have allowonshelfholds off you can't place a hold on an ordered item
15:35 apparently ?
15:35 * chris_n realizes he was the topic of conversation this morning :-)
15:35 wizzyrea that seems logical to me
15:35 the ordered item is 'on the shelf'
15:36 the solution would be to check out the item to cataloging
15:36 then people could place holds on it
15:36 oleonard chris_n: I thought that's what you materialized. We said your name too darn many times.
15:36 wizzyrea not a bug, imo
15:36 chris_n hehe
15:36 reiveune bye*
15:36 reiveune left #koha
15:36 wizzyrea hello and goodbye
15:36 gmcharlt just with much happier results as compared to saying "hastur" three times
15:37 chris_n HTML labels is very doable
15:37 * wizzyrea doesn't try it
15:37 chris_n I got into it and then suddenly ran out of time
15:37 wizzyrea I love hearing things are doable
15:38 gmcharlt wizzyrea: would be a reasonable enhancement, though - think of renaming the AllowOnShelfHolds syspref to AllowHoldsOnAvailableItems
15:38 * chris_n loves hearing he has more time :-)
15:39 sekjal gmcharlt:  "available" is not clearly defined in Koha, unfortunately
15:39 wizzyrea ^^
15:39 sekjal and I think it would be to contextualized:  available for loan, available for use, available for holds, etc
15:39 gmcharlt sekjal: but the concept behind the renaming stands
15:39 wizzyrea you're both right :)
15:40 well... an on order item technically is only available for reserves.
15:41 * wizzyrea sits down and shuts up.
15:43 sekjal AllowOnOrderHolds?
15:43 wizzyrea ^^
15:43 sekjal but "on order" is controlled by the data, not by any explicit coding
15:44 that is, by current convention, notforloan == -1

15:44 sekjal and a library may or may not actually have that authorized value in their system
15:50 gmcharlt sekjal: which arguably ought to be buttoned up a bit so that code can count on knowing if an item is on order or not

17:39 wizzyrea cait, can you gurn off the analytics view in the OPAC?
17:39 it's frightening and confusing for my users >.>
17:39 mostly because it  404's
17:39 s/gurn/turn
17:39 cait hehe not yet
17:39 it's on my list
17:39 for tonight
17:39 wizzyrea lol ok
17:39 cait I wanted to talk to oleonard about it
17:39 is he still here?
17:39 I was thinking syspref vs. classes / ids in the xslt file
17:40 so you can turn off and on fields with css
17:40 * oleonard is here
17:40 wizzyrea i'm a fan of killing it with css
17:40 cait adding it to the summary spans
17:40 wizzyrea oh now they want to know what exactly it is supposed to do
17:40 * wizzyrea honestly has no idea
17:40 cait hehe
17:40 if oyu have analytics in your catalog it will bring up a result list for that
17:41 showing you the essays
17:41 should not bring up 404 actually
17:41 only an empty list of you have none
17:41 wizzyrea well, result not found I guess
17:41 cait yep
17:41 wizzyrea now that i look at it myself
17:41 i am pretty sure we do not have analytics in our catalog >.>
17:41 apparently.
17:41 cait so you are volunteering to sign off? :)

17:42 wizzyrea for the hiding
17:42 anyway
17:42 i have no idea how it works
17:42 cait oleonard: do you think this is an ok idea?
17:42 wizzyrea so...
17:42 * wizzyrea claims ignorance
17:42 cait wizzyrea: do you have an example in your catalog I could look at?
17:42 wizzyrea yea sec
17:42 http://catalog.nexpresslibrary[…]blionumber=469048
17:43 cait ok, this is a serial record
17:43 oleonard cait: All fields? So would have an XSLT file that showed everything, and libraries would hide what they didn't want?
17:43 cait ldr says so
17:43 oleonard: I thought it would make sense for some other fields perhaps too
17:43 and would be better than having sysprefs
17:43 wizzyrea and http://catalog.nexpresslibrary[…]blionumber=469047
17:43 cait and you could also make something bold or chang eit easier if there were some individual id's or classes
17:44 but wanted to check with you if it's a bad idea for a reason I am not thinking about right now :)
17:44 * wizzyrea is glad there are brilliant people like cait and jcamins to do stuff with things like analytics
17:44 wizzyrea because I really have no idea.
17:44 cait hehe
17:44 let's say you catalog the essays in the serial
17:44 so people can search for them
17:44 some special libraries do that
17:45 you link them using 773 I think
17:45 to the serial
17:45 but the serial has no idea it has analytics (that's why I can't show the link only if there are analytics)
17:45 the link currently will show up automatically if it is a serial record
17:45 but I want to make it hidable
17:45 * cait is not brillian
17:45 cait t
17:46 brilliant would be a way to make the link only show up if there is something to be found
17:46 at the moment it's show everywhere or show nowhere
17:46 wizzyrea aha
17:46 she's going to tweak the ldr on those 2 records for now
17:46 to hide it
17:46 :P
17:47 but we will poke your patch when we see it

17:55 maximep trying to figure out the create order page... the Actual cost field is never saved in the db ?
17:55 cait maximep: it will when oyu enter it on receive I think
17:55 and it should
17:55 maximep but it is when you receive
17:55 cait yep
17:55 rangi told me it's on the order page too in case you want to skip the receive part - but that's not working now
17:55 maximep shouldn't the two be linked together ?
17:55 cait probably a broken feature
17:56 maximep because the replacement and budgeted cost are the same in the 2 interfaces
17:56 cait I would think so, at the momen the one on order seems not to be functional
17:56 maximep ok
17:56 going to open a bug report then
17:56 and do a patch
17:56 cait yay :)
17:56 maximep because without that, there's no way to modify the price
17:56 after u receive
17:56 cait hm
17:57 ah
17:57 but it works
17:57 after receive
17:57 with a patch
17:57 that I signed off on these days
17:57 ahve you searched bugzilla for actual price?
17:57 there should be at least 2 bug reports about that
17:58 maximep bug 6414
17:58 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6414 major, P5, ---, henridamien, NEW , actual price not recorded when ordering
17:58 maximep but no patch
17:58 let's see if theres another..
17:58 cait ah, I have more
17:58 bug 4831
17:58 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=4831 critical, PATCH-Sent, ---, srdjan, ASSIGNED , Actual Price being ignored after receive

17:58 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6879 critical, P5, ---, henridamien, NEW , Actual price should show correctly on order line and basket summary
17:58 maximep wow lol
17:59 cait the first one has a patch
17:59 the second is a bigger problem - and I probably understand now what you mean and you are right
17:59 if you want to change the actual price after receive you need to modify the order line
17:59 and it shows the wrong value in there - I rreported that in 6879
18:00 maximep ok
18:00 * cait hopes she didn't scare you away :)
18:00 maximep 4831 doesn't seem to be the same problem
18:01 cait no
18:01 it's only connected to the actual price thing
18:01 and has a patch
18:01 so I wanted you to know :)
18:02 maximep that code is so hard to understand :/
18:02 * cait sends chocolate
18:07 maximep it shows ecost in the actual cost of neworder, but I think it should show unitprice
18:07 and be saved as unitprice
18:07 I think that would fix both 6414 and 6879
18:08 cait I would say try it out and let me test :)

18:12 wizzyrea ooo!
18:12 that is NEATO
18:13 so commenters don't have to have an actual blog account to post comments
18:13 ?
18:14 that is NEAT.
18:15 slef no, but I allow public to comment with moderation anyway
18:15 it just avoids them having to type in all three fields
18:15 as wordpress will go eat them from their profile
18:15 wizzyrea i like that

18:21 imo
18:21 slef yeah, it's one good way of doing things... we're a bit more ad-hoc by using git trees to share configs around
18:21 we still don't have many servers that are exactly the same configuration
18:21 maybe it'll be a 10th birthday present for us ;-)
18:21 wizzyrea :D

18:23 sekjal soliciting opinions:  I'm working on bug 6403, and I'm wondering if it's worth having a syspref to control this, or to just do it automatically
18:23 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6403 enhancement, P5, ---, ian.walls, NEW , Record local use stats when checking in
18:25 sekjal right now, all my patch is doing, is if the item isn't issued when it's returned, changing the UpdateStats type from 'return' to 'localuse'
18:25 (and adding a message to the template noting "inhouse use recorded"
18:25 wizzyrea well
18:25 cait it goes into statistics table or will it increment the local use value?
18:26 I think the problem is lots of people are checking in stuff
18:26 wizzyrea ok, we use checkin to process incoming transfers
18:26 cait just to check what's  up with it
18:26 wizzyrea is that a valud localuse?
18:26 cait so it would always count
18:26 wizzyrea valid*
18:26 cait and not only for the statistical user like before
18:26 and for this I think it should perhaps be a sys pref
18:27 I think local use would be if oyu have a thing like a reading room
18:27 wizzyrea sorry to make it harder sekjal :(
18:27 sekjal aside from the message, the only difference with the syspref on is that UpdateStats adds the entry as "localuse" instead of "return"
18:27 cait and want to track what people are bringing in there to read
18:27 sekjal doesn't add a new statistics table entry
18:27 * wizzyrea ponders this
18:27 sekjal just modifies the one that's already occurring
18:27 cait sekjal: so you are not incrementing the value in the item? the localusething?
18:28 I thought there was a value in items for this... but perhaps I am mistaken
18:28 sekjal cait:  I don't believe there is such an item value
18:28 cait and that you would use the statistical patron to incrmeent that by checkout
18:28 sekjal at least, if there is, it's not updating it when a statistical patron is used, either
18:28 wizzyrea yea that's gotta be a syspref.
18:29 as an example, we wouldn't want every item checked in to fill a hold to be a localuse
18:29 sekjal but it should be recorded as 'return'?
18:29 wizzyrea we, specifically, don't do anything with return statistics
18:29 precisely for this reason
18:29 because return stats are bloated by reserves
18:30 cait hm you are probably right
18:30 http://manual.koha-community.o[…]trackinhouse.html
18:30 http://manual.koha-community.o[…]dstatspatron.html
18:30 sekjal so... the robust solution would be to breakdown the UpdateStats type even more intelligently
18:30 cait so you could still use a statistical user for specific stuff
18:30 sekjal so returns are indeed all returns, localuse all localuse, holds are hold, etc. etc
18:31 wizzyrea ^^ yes, sadly this
18:31 cait maximep++
18:31 * wizzyrea knows that's a lot more work.
18:31 cait sekjal: I think you are right
18:31 wizzyrea: the new search for the manual is great
18:31 sekjal okay, well that's outside the scope of today's project.  I'll just put the syspref in there, then, as originally planned
18:31 wizzyrea I do my best

19:09 jcamins_away Well... what if they offered you a lightsaber or scary mask?
19:09 Or black cape!
19:09 * cait was wondering: how das yoda speak in english?
19:09 cait dark the other side is?
19:10 jcamins_away Yup.
19:10 cait shut up yoda and eat your toast...
19:10 jcamins_away :)
19:10 cait sorry, couln#t resist
19:10 oleonard Where'd you see that jcamins_away ?
19:11 jcamins_away oleonard: sith-l? ;)
19:11 Autocat.
19:11 oleonard sith-l is a very well-behaved list. Anyone who leaves their vacation auto-responder turned on gets force-choked.
19:12 cait ok
19:12 something did go wrong here
19:12 runtime error: file /home/katrin/kohaclone/koha-tmpl/intrane​t-tmpl/prog/en/xslt/MARC21slimUtils.xsl line 143 element choose Variable 'UseAuthoritiesForTracings' has not been declared.  at /home/katrin/kohaclone/C4/XSLT.pm line 178 :(
19:13 oleonard: lol
19:13 jcamins_away cait: the variables at the top are now scoped wrong.
19:13 cait are now?
19:13 what have I done?
19:14 jcamins_away Probably deleted an <xsl:if>?
19:14 cait checking...
19:15 jcamins_away Wait... that error doesn't make sense.
19:15 cait no
19:15 jcamins_away Oh, I see.
19:15 cait perhaps it does not like spaces in attributes?
19:15 jcamins_away Two line numbers.
19:16 cait yes?
19:16 jcamins_away Wait a minute.
19:17 * oleonard flees
19:17 cait oh that's nice
19:17 master is broken oto
19:17 to it was not ME
19:18 jcamins_away No it's not.
19:18 Someone rearranged things a bit.
19:19 cait ok
19:19 jcamins_away Add this line in that template: <xsl:variable name="UseAuthoritiesForTracings" select="marc:sysprefs/marc:syspref[@​name='UseAuthoritiesForTracings']"/>
19:19 cait which commit was it?
19:19 jcamins_away I'm not sure.
19:19 cait hm
19:19 jcamins_away One of the problem commits was f087137f, which had a one-line change I didn't notice.
19:20 However, I think there's another, more recent commit, too, where a line was removed, probably.
19:23 cait xslt pm?
19:24 jcamins_away No, it's all scoping in the XSLTs.
19:24 The error is because m880select is getting called in a context where the variables aren't defined.
19:26 cait oh
19:26 where
19:26 jcamins_away I don't know. :(
19:26 And I'm trying to write a paper right now, so I can't really look.

19:49 rangi heh
19:53 cait ah,now oleonard is gone
19:53 which css file do I add a new class to?
19:53 that is used in xslt files for staff and opac?
19:53 rangi both
19:53 I reckon
20:00 wizzyrea this might be a dumb question
20:00 can you bring in a record with items and directly overlay
20:01 rangi when importing?
20:01 overlay the items?
20:01 wizzyrea example, you have a bib with 3 items all checked out, as part of a batch process you want to overlay the items to edit one or several of the barcodes
20:01 what does that do to the current issue/
20:01 if anything
20:01 cait no items overlay
20:01 once a barcode is in
20:01 the items never get touched or changed in any way
20:02 only overlay for records
20:02 you can overlay and add items
20:02 rangi what she said
20:02 cait hehe
20:02 wizzyrea ty
20:02 that's really helpful :)
20:02 cait++

21:09 druthb that's the one.

21:13 jcamins_away libsysguy: does that work? If it does, maybe I should chant "bug 6800"... ;)
21:13 libsysguy i think we have to chant sekjal with the bug number
21:13 perhaps he'll just become irritated and push us lol

21:14 cait rangi: is srdjan in today?
21:14 libsysguy oh no we are like hot potatoes
21:14 cait perhaps he could fix the small problem on the acq bug I was testing this morning...
21:14 wizzyrea trea?
21:14 wahanui i heard trea was the support in the darkness. The watcher of the tickets. He is the fire that keeps errant cats happy, the light that brings code updates, the horn that wakes the devs, the shield that guards the realms of nerds.
21:15 rangi he works for catalyst australia
21:15 libsysguy and sekjal we should have some kind of voting system on koha-community lol

21:16 wahanui somebody said libsysguy was Koha's hottest developer or partying with swedes on his deck

21:16 cait sekjal: voting for?
21:17 libsysguy sekjal true...can we just use open ID
21:17 druthb "all," libsysguy?
21:17 sekjal cait:  voting on anything anyone proposes

21:52 jcamins_away MariaDB is pretty nifty looking.
21:52 rangi it should just drop in
21:53 worth having a try with sometime
21:53 jcamins_away Does it support InnoDB?
21:53 rangi innodb sux
21:53 tere
21:53 there i said it
21:53 ;)
21:54 gmcharlt but regardless, MariaDB does support it
21:54 jcamins_away rangi: but isn't that what we use in Koha?
21:54 rangi yup, in a lot of places we shouldnt
21:54 gmcharlt jcamins_away: chris_n did some poking around with mariadb a while back
21:54 the main thing is that mariadb by default enforces stricter SQL standards compliance than mysql does
21:55 so it would require a bit of patch for Koha to work on it
21:55 jcamins_away rangi: shouldn't we stop using InnoDB in those places, then?
21:55 rangi i think so
21:55 places im thinking about
21:55 gmcharlt on the other hand, stricter SQL checking is a Good Thing
21:55 rangi is the statistics table
21:55 sessions
21:55 cait oleonard++
21:56 rangi and a few others
21:56 jcamins_away We use InnoDB for sessions?
21:56 rangi we used to, we blanket converted everything
21:57 i think a recent patch fixed sessions
21:57 gmcharlt my favorite storage engine for sessions is ... memcached ;)
21:57 * rangi looks
21:57 rangi yup, thts what i use too ;)
21:58 DROP TABLE IF EXISTS sessions;
21:58 CREATE TABLE sessions ( `id` varchar(32) NOT NULL, `a_session` text NOT NULL, UNIQUE KEY id (id)
21:58 ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;
21:58 nope we still use it
21:58 cait I think it was talked about on the mailing list recently
21:58 rangi zebraqueue is another one
21:59 we dont have any foreign keys
21:59 we arent doing transactions
21:59 not winning anything except slow with innodb on that table
21:59 when im not RM
22:00 ill make myself a pest rejigging the database and getting it running on postgres at least as well as mysql
22:00 * jcamins_away didn't realize zebraqueue was InnoDB.
22:00 wizzyrea oh!
22:00 time to go!
22:00 later peps
22:00 rangi take a look at kohastructure.sql jcamins_away
22:00 pretty much everything is
22:01 cya wizzyrea
22:01 jcamins_away rangi: yeah, unless you're me, and decided to change zebraqueue to MyISAM.
22:01 And sessions.
22:01 Seems to work fine.
22:01 rangi yup
22:02 jcamins_away I don't even remember doing that, but my DB's been around the block a few times.
22:03 Some time I should take a look, see if I've been using MyISAM for any other tables.
22:05 rangi :)
22:05 cait wizzyrea: bye :)
22:06 jcamins_away I should also figure out if I have any custom indexes.
22:06 cait rangi: does your rejigging involve getting rid of all thos eunused columns?
22:06 rangi yup
22:06 cait rangi: or more consistent use of datatypes?
22:06 rangi seems like the perfect opportunity
22:06 * cait agrees
22:06 rangi and reserved names
22:06 so we dont have to backtick things
22:07 * cait nods
22:07 * rangi looks forward to breaking everything
22:07 cait hehe
22:07 we will fix things
22:07 after you break them
22:07 only fair
22:07 jcamins_away And by "we," cait means "you." :P
22:08 rangi heh
22:08 cait no
22:08 she doesn't!

22:46 r
22:46 :)
22:48 gmcharlt it's figuring out where to aim the hammer ...
22:48 rangi :)
22:49 jcamins_away rangi: eythian is the person to talk to about the nagios plugins for Koha?
22:49 eythian yep
22:49 jcamins_away eythian: good morning.
22:50 eythian hiya
22:51 jcamins_away eythian: so, any chance I could persuade you to share those plugins?
22:51 eythian of course, one moment
22:52 jcamins_away eythian++
22:53 eythian http://git.catalyst.net.nz/gw?[…]refs/heads/nagios <-- jcamins_away, all the code is in nagios/, and the branch name is nagios.
22:53 jcamins_away Cool!
22:54 Thanks!
22:54 eythian It doesn't understand the packages, as I did it for a client who isn't yet using them, but it's been on my todo for a while to make it hook into them and be a bit smarter.
22:54 jcamins_away There's even a readme! Awesome!
22:54 eythian But that's hopefully enough for you to get going.
22:54 :)
22:54 jcamins_away Yup.
22:54 This leaves only one more technical issue that I haven't figured out.
22:54 :)
22:55 Well, that I haven't cribbed a solution to off of you.
22:55 eythian what's that?
22:55 heh
22:55 * jcamins_away takes lots of credit for cribbing all your solutions.
22:55 eythian I'm OK with that ;)
22:55 jcamins_away When I need to do upgrades for my two small clients on different days.
22:55 eythian beer is a suitable trade :)
22:55 on the same machine?
22:55 jcamins_away Right.
22:56 eythian we don't do that, we schedule a time to do it all at once.
22:56 jcamins_away Using the packages makes it so much easier to manage the server, and upgrades are a snap, but I encountered a situation where I have to do one upgrade one week, and the other the next week
22:57 I went with the "move client B to a spare server temporarily" option.
22:57 eythian yeah, that's probably the easiest way.
22:57 jcamins_away But I'm not sure I'd raise that to the level of "solution." More like "work-around."
22:57 eythian at least a koha-dump/koha-restore should take care of it quickly.
22:58 Yeah, having multiple versions of packages at the same time is very difficult, and not something I'd like to have to support.
22:58 jcamins_away Yeah, and these are tiny installations.
22:59 eythian hmm, I just noticed the nrpe_local.cfg is empty
22:59 I wonder what happened there.
23:00 jcamins_away I'm thinking the way to automate it would be to have a separate chroot jail for the system that gets upgraded first, then once the other is ready, switch it back to the main root.
23:00 * eythian goes and grabs a copy from the server.
23:00 eythian that's an option, although not too different from having another server really.
23:01 jcamins_away Yeah, but with the difference that I could probably script it all, whereas I don't have the ability to script a move between servers.
23:01 eythian ah right
23:01 good point
23:01 jcamins_away (not saying it couldn't be done, just that I couldn't do it)
23:10 But, anyway, you don't have any suggestions for how to do it other than the alternate server/chroot/vm option, correct?
23:14 jenkins_koha Project Koha_master build #420: SUCCESS in 47 mn: http://jenkins.koha-community.[…]/Koha_master/420/
23:14 * robin: Bug 6360 - add some more sounds to some happenings on returns
23:14 * ruth: Bug 6900 - line break between available and reference items
23:14 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6360 minor, PATCH-Sent, ---, robin, ASSIGNED , all messages on checkin should have sounds if soundson
23:14 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6900 minor, PATCH-Sent, ---, ruth, ASSIGNED , In XSLT, OPAC display of availability needs a line break when both loan and not-for-loan items present
23:15 eythian jcamins_away: not really I'm afraid.
23:15 jcamins_away eythian: I didn't really expect you to have an answer, though you have had answers for every other technical difficulty that presented itself... thanks for thinking about it. :)
23:15 eythian++ # for solving problems
23:16 eythian heh :) if I really had to do it, I'd probably chuck a git checkout onto it and run from that for the week
23:17 jcamins_away Hm. I guess that would probably make more sense.
23:19 Just change the paths in koha-conf.xml and the Apache conf file.
23:19 Even easier than a chroot. Cool!
23:27 eythian yeah
23:35 oh, my kohacon flying-home time has changed, so I don't have to be up at godawful in the morning the day after the conference.
23:35 that's good
23:50 juan_sieira joined #koha
23:52 jcamins_away eythian: check to make sure they didn't move the second leg to the next day.
23:53 BobB_ joined #koha
23:55 eythian jcamins_away: no, it ends up I leave about 4 hours later, and arrive here about 2 hours later.
23:55 a net gain really
23:56 jcamins_away Very nice.
23:59 Time for pizza.
23:59 Good night, #koha
