00:00 jcamins !
00:00 The page actually loaded!
00:03 How does @EXPORT work?
00:09 aogle joined #koha
00:10 jcamins Where do warns go?
00:10 chris_n warns go to your apache log
00:10 jcamins Never mind.
00:10 Found it.
00:10 * jcamins has been using packages recently, and forgot that koha-dev had its own logs.
00:36 jcamins Hm.
00:36 The thumbnail is not yet working.
00:37 melia rangi?
00:37 wahanui I LIKE ALMONDS! HAVE SOME NUTS!
00:37 melia hehe. I actually meant is rangi here?
00:38 talljoy melia?
00:38 wahanui I LIKE BEER AND I LOVE ANSWERING RFP
00:38 talljoy lol
00:38 melia haha! mine says beer?!
00:38 bag mtj?
00:38 wahanui DeM KraZy NutZ!!
00:48 rangi melia: here now
00:48 jcamins I keep on getting a "premature end of script headers" error. Anyone have any advice on troubleshooting?
00:48 rangi read the error log?
00:49 what it means is, the script died, before it printed out the headers
00:49 melia rangi: I was going to ask you about git am -iu3 to make sure I'm doing it right. so first I do wget (copy patch from bug). then git am -iu3 attachment blah blah. right?
00:49 rangi the other trick you can do is
00:49 jcamins: my $cgi = CGI->new();
00:49 print $cgi->header;
00:49 right near the top of your script
00:49 jcamins Oh, I see.
00:49 That makes sense.
00:49 This doesn't print headers.
00:50 rangi melia: you can do git bz apply
00:50 if it fails it will leave the patch in /tmp
00:50 and tell you
00:50 then you can do
00:50 git am --abort
00:50 and git am -iu3 /where/the/patch/is (cut and paste)
00:50 or, you can wget it
00:50 whatever works best for you
00:51 melia what if I forgot the git am --abort in between? do I need to start over?
00:51 rangi it will probably yell at you
00:52 melia hehe. ok I'll start over. :)
00:52 rangi :)
00:52 melia thanks
00:52 rangi no worries
00:54 jcamins How do I prevent my web browser from caching?
00:54 Cache-Control, I think.
00:55 Or not.
00:59 Why does it only work half the time?
01:00 Oh.
01:00 I bet int() rounds.
01:01 No, it doesn't.
01:01 Why does it seem like it does?
01:10 Never mind.
01:24 melia left #koha
02:29 * jcamins is the jQuery MASTER!
02:38 bag heh
02:44 jcamins template variables?
03:11 @quote search template
03:11 huginn` jcamins: No matching quotes were found.
03:11 jcamins @quote search vars
03:11 huginn` jcamins: 1 found: #135: "rangi: $tempate->{VARS}->{'LoginBranchname'} -..."
03:12 jcamins @quote get 135
03:12 huginn` jcamins: Quote #135: "rangi: $tempate->{VARS}->{'LoginBranchname'} - without the typo" (added by cait at 07:30 PM, May 20, 2011)

04:10 jcamins Isn't there a way to retrieve the title and author without parsing the entire record?
04:10 wizzyrea biblio.title?
04:10 jcamins wizzyrea: yeah, but in Perl?
04:10 wizzyrea: preferably without accessing the DB directly.
04:11 wizzyrea oh, dunno I'd have to poke at it.
04:11 jcamins Got it. GetBiblio.

06:09 indradg wahanui, forget me
06:09 wahanui indradg: I forgot me
06:11 cait lol
06:11 hi indradg :)
06:12 indradg hiya cait
06:12 cait can someone help me with some perl? :)
06:12 I am trying to figure something out in the serials module
06:12 onesubscription => (scalar(@$subscriptiondescs)==1),
06:29 fredericd cait: strange statement
06:29 cait morning fredericd :)
06:29 I was looking at a bug nicole filed and it's quite interesting
06:30 bug 7338
06:30 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7338 normal, P5 - low, ---, colin.campbell, NEW , link to serial detail wrong
06:30 cait it turned out to be a scoping problem
06:30 fredericd good morning
06:30 cait and I discovered there is a view to that page we don't ever use
06:30 if you have more than one subscription to the record
06:30 and the url parameter is the biblionumber
06:31 it will show all subscriptions and the issues on the page - and then it makes sense to show the subscription number before the issue
06:33 ok, that probably does not make much sense?
06:35 I think I got it... but needs more testing
06:37 fredericd why at all is the subscription number displayed on each line of the issues table?
06:39 cait fredericd: because of the view for a record with more than 1 subscription
06:39 I have updated the bug with a screenshot
06:39 it should not show on a page with only 1 subscription - that's the scoping problem
06:39 the template variable was wrong: year.onescubscription instead of onesubscription
06:46 AmitG heya fredericd
06:46 wahanui i guess fredericd is translation manager for 3.8
06:54 fredericd cait: rather than sending a variable to TT, you could check the array length directly in TT
06:55 indradg fredericd, did you get my email regarding the person wanting to do tibetan translation/
06:55 cait fredericd: my main problem is, I am trying to see how this was supposed to work
06:55 fredericd indradg: no
06:55 could you resend it?
06:55 cait fredericd: it seems weird that we are never using that view of the page
06:56 fredericd where is this view in the template?
06:56 indradg fredericd, i sent it to f.demians@tamil.fr
06:57 that be the correct address?
06:59 fredericd yes
07:03 Judit joined #koha
07:05 cait fredericd: create 2 subscriptions with for one record
07:05 fredericd: then call the serials-collection page with the bilbionumber, instead of the subscription id
07:06 I added comments to the bug
07:08 fredericd can you get a title with two subscriptions on the Serial Collection page?
07:09 Judit left #koha
07:10 fredericd cait: have you seen you can send a request like 'serials-collection.pl?subscr​iptionid=9&subscriptionid=45' and get a result
07:11 cait hm not yet
07:11 yes, that works too
07:11 fredericd but I can't see any place where this page is called this way
07:11 cait there was a lot of afford made to make it flexible like that
07:11 exactly
07:11 and it would be useful I think
07:12 it's quite a mystery
07:13 fredericd So I do think it would be useful
07:13 It may be added on serials search result page
07:18 cait hm yes
07:18 I think the "show any subscriptions" link should show up on the page
07:18 when there is more than one subscription
07:21 indradg joined #koha
07:23 fredericd or it should alway be displayed. This way you can get the other subscriptions that you can't reach otherwise
07:25 cait yes
07:25 i wonder where this got lost
07:27 fredericd yes, too bad. It seems it was possible to call this page with a biblionumber as parameter rather than subscriptionid
07:27 cait does this line correctly check for the existence of the parameter in the url?
07:27 subscr=>$query->param('subscriptionid'), ?
07:27 it's one of the template variables
07:29 fredericd it's ok.
07:29 cait hm
07:29 weird
07:30 [% IF ( subscr ) %]
07:30 [% UNLESS ( onesubscription ) %]
07:30 <tr ><td colspan="7">  <a href="serials-collection.pl?biblionumber=[% biblionumber %]">See any subscription attached to this biblio</a></td>
07:30 </tr>[% END %]
07:30 [% END %]
07:30 if the parameter is there and it's more than one subscription... show the link?
07:30 but it's not working
07:31 alex_a bonjour #koha
07:31 fredericd for me onesubcription must be removed. It adds confusion
07:33 cait it's in a lot of places
07:33 I think onesubscription is supposed to check if it's 1 or more
07:34 and the other is for checking how you called the template - if you have restricted it to show only specific subscriptions
07:36 show the link, if there is more than 1 subscription and I have not explicitly told the view to only show
07:36 but I don't see why it doesn't wrk like that
07:36 fredericd take a look at my patch, and see how it works with a biblio having several subscriptions
07:38 cait will try to do tonight - have to run
07:38 or will be late at work
07:39 fredericd me too... have a nice ride
07:39 cait thx :)
07:39 you too

10:08 francharb rangi, wizzyrea, kf : sorry for my "way to long" answer on the bugzilla 5347. i just realised how to do a two lines answer right now...
10:08 :)
10:11 kf I still disagree ;)
10:14 francharb kf, that it should be done with another development,
10:14 ?
10:14 or that the item tag is already used to display biblio and item info?
10:15 kf francharb: the <item> in claims CAN NOT displayi tem information :)
10:15 that's the difference
10:16 it can only display title level information at the moment
10:16 and you get a list of books - but not of item information
10:16 francharb haaaaa
10:16 kf so people will get confused why you can't for example display a callnumber in there
10:16 francharb sure
10:16 kf and for the ODUE that would work
10:16 francharb i get it now
10:17 could you had that on the ticket?
10:17 i thougt it was working the same way
10:17 well it should actually
10:18 it's the item tag
10:18 anyway, kf, do you think it's appriopriate to change this behavior within this development?
10:19 kf sorry will be back shortly
10:25 francharb kf, i did a new comment.. ;)
10:29 jenkins_koha Yippie, build fixed!

10:40 mib_odamqk joined #koha
10:43 mib_odamqk I work in a school library in Berlin, Germany. I have been 'assigned' to look into your software but have little technical experience. I have some general questions about this software. 1. In the demo version I am only able to search English-Language book databases. Is it also possible to search German language book databases?
10:43 2. Can more than one library administrator catalogue books at the same time?
10:46 magnuse mib_odamqk: re number 1: are you thinking of "copy cataloguing", where you search and fetch records from for example library of congress?
10:47 if so: yes, you can set it up to search any openly available Z39.50 database
10:47 (and SRU too soon, hopefully)
10:47 re 2: yes, you can have as many people cataloguing as you wish
10:48 kf is our german koha expert, but she might not be available at the moment
10:49 here is some documentation on how to "Add a Z39.50 Target": http://manual.koha-community.o[…]n.html#z3950admin
10:50 paul_p mib_odamqk, Berlin in Germany ? You should speak german with kf ;-)
10:54 mib_odamqk Yes copy cataloging
10:54 in the demo version the z39.50 databases that were coming up were all english
10:54 kf sorry, not here now
10:55 but I will be back in 1 hour
10:55 bin in einer stunde wieder da
10:55 francharb kf, are you available this afternoon to talk about your last comment? i dont know  how to do it... Joubu needs more specifications
10:55 mib_odamqk Gut, wir konnen das machen
10:55 I am available until about 14:00 GMT+1
10:55 kf vielleicht etwas mehr als eine stunde, aber fast immer hier
10:56 francharb: I think reanming it to leave the door open for later would be enough for now
10:56 magnuse mib_odamqk: the demo you tried is probably just created by americans, with other americans in mind ;-)
10:56 kf francharb: the other thing is a nice to have :)
10:56 mib_odamqk Ich bin english mutterspracher aber meine deutsche assistantin komment gleich zurück
10:57 that makes sense with the demo version
10:57 kf_afk will be back later
10:57 francharb kf_afk, "reanming"? renaming?
10:57 :)
10:57 magnuse mib_odamqk: i have a demo here with norwegian z39.50 targets: http://demo.bibkat.no:8080/ (login: test1/test1)
10:57 francharb see y
10:57 a
10:57 kf_afk, talk to you later!
10:58 magnuse mib_odamqk: and as long as you know the z39.50 "address" of the catalogues you want to search, it's easy to add them
11:01 mib_odamqk perfect.
11:04 This is really helpful information and helps me get a better idea of the possibilities of the software. Thank you!
11:07 magnuse no problem! don't be afraid to ask more, if there is more we can help you with ;-)
11:08 mib_odamqk For now that is it. Shall I leave the window open incase I have more questions?
11:13 magnuse that's up to you! ;-) if you are using mibbit i think you might get logged off if you are inactive for a while, but then it's just to log back on later
11:16 mib_odamqk Ok then I will close it and come back when I have more questions. Thanks!
11:16 magnuse see you later!
11:19 gaetan_B i've stumbled on the problem described in bug 6374, it seems to be a bit forgotten as no one as commented since may
11:19 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6374 normal, P5 - low, ---, chris, NEW , Use "size" as names/hash keys leads to an unexpected results when using Template::Toolkit (name of a virtual method there)

13:04 kf back
13:05 francharb_afk: still around? :)
13:12 francharb_afk kf
13:12 yep
13:12 francharb i answered you back on bugzilla
13:12 ;)
13:14 kf I saw it :)
13:14 I am still sticking to my first suggestion :)
13:14 and I have examples for item data and vendors
13:14 nengard joined #koha
13:14 kf I know of libraries who make the vendors stick the barcode labels, inventory numbers and callnumbers to the books
13:15 francharb ok kf
13:15 kf we don't have a library with Koha doing that, but i know about others. so this is all not for now
13:15 francharb so it makes more sense now
13:16 kf perhaps we can wait and get some more opinions :)
13:16 the late order management is a very nice addition and works nicely too
13:16 francharb kf, how do you see the acqclaim notice with biblio and item level info + aqorders info?
13:16 kf I don't thinke we have to change the feature - the only question is if we rename the tag or not
13:17 francharb: that's a good question
13:17 and you are right
13:17 I am not sure how to solve that, have to think about it
13:17 francharb ok, so for the moment, lets go for the renaming of the tag maybe
13:18 do you mean renaming the tag for the acqclaim notice only?
13:20 kf I was thinking about a general term
13:20 but we could use something like <order> perhaps

13:53 libranto joined #koha
13:53 libranto hi everyone
13:54 is there any todo list for koha development
13:54 i need some features
13:54 magnuse libranto: we use bugzilla for that sort of thing: http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/
13:55 libranto ok
13:55 i will create ana account
13:55 and then?
13:56 magnuse search first to see if others have suggested what you want to suggest
13:56 if you don't find anything, enter a new bug
13:56 libranto bug? (:
13:56 i need course rezerve list module
13:56 magnuse that's a description of something that's not working, or a description of an enhancement
13:57 libranto ok
13:57 paul_p libranto, we call that a bug because it's bugzilla. But it can be used for enhancement too
13:57 magnuse and course reserves is definitely something others have been interested in
13:57 libranto ok
13:57 i m newbee (:
13:58 magnuse hm, there's a blogpost or wiki page somewhere you should read, then - i'm trying to remember where... ;-)
13:58 this is a good starting point: http://koha-community.org/about/enhancing-koha/
13:59 libranto i mean i dont know how long takes suggestions to inplement
13:59 magnuse hehe, that's a good question
13:59 if someone likes the idea it could take hours
14:00 if noone catches on to it, it could happen... never
14:00 to be sure something is implemented you probably have to pay someone to do it
14:00 libranto liblime made that module but i m not interested in Liblime
14:00 magnuse if you can't do it yourself
14:00 libranto good (:

14:57 magnuse hehe, i was just going to sugget you might have an easier time of it with s/hanlde/handle/ ;-)
14:58 woohoo - success!
14:58 chris_n yup, getting a hanlde on things is often tuff
14:58 much easier to get a handle on them
14:59 jcamins: the sad reality is that that code has worked for 4 years, and I will probably never revisit it unless sufficiently motivated to do so :-)
14:59 jcamins magnuse: look at the handle_dir routine in tools/picture-upload.pl, and consider whether handle is really easier than hanlde. :P
14:59 chris_n: understandable. You didn't see me rushing to fix it.
14:59 And won't.
14:59 chris_n it was done in my nonage

15:01 jcamins chris_n: my reason for creating Koha::Images was entirely selfish: it made it easier to write the code I needed.

15:02 jcamins Ah.
15:02 chris_n jcamins: that's what I'd like to know :-)
15:03 jcamins chris_n: I mean, how does the second array influence the first?
15:03 Or, how should it?
15:04 chris_n the list to be sorted is made up of the keys of a hash; the list to define the order those keys should be in is the second list
15:04 jcamins I see.
15:04 chris_n the order is non-standard
15:04 ie not ascending/dec/etc
15:04 jcamins It seems to me there's a clever Perl way to do it.
15:05 magnuse that wouldn't be the schwarzian transform, would it?
15:06 chris_n magnuse: it didn't look so, but I may be missing something

15:44 danmc is the mpm-itk bit in apache still required for koha or are there other ways?
15:45 jcamins danmc: if you don't care about security, you could use a different MPM.
15:45 danmc: but don't.
15:46 danmc so itk really is the way to go then?
15:46 * jcamins channels rangi.
15:46 jcamins Oh yes.
15:46 danmc: the alternative is to lose all the security benefits that having a different user provides.
15:47 danmc: why would you want to use a different MPM?
15:47 danmc mostly because itk isn't shipped directly with apache and it has to be patched into the sources (or install from a build that had it patched into its sources)
15:48 jcamins danmc: ah. This is for the Arch port? I'd strongly recommend requiring itk.
15:49 paul_p maximep, display in checkout =
15:49 it means that, when you're on circulation pages, this ext attribute will also be displayed on the left
15:50 it's useless if it's a password, or a statistical category for example. But it can be usefull if it's a login, or contain the cursus the patron is doing at the school
15:50 maximep paul_p: ah, that makes sense, thanks.

16:00 danmc jcamins:  sorry, phone.  not Arch port, but the NetBSD package and our apache package doesn't currently have itk.
16:01 jcamins danmc: whoops. I knew it was some sort of port.
16:05 danmc: anyway, yes, itk should really remain a requirement.
16:06 danmc: I suppose you could make it depend on a default MPM and put in the warning "not to be used in production."

16:46 nengard is there a permission that stops staff from seeing the 'set library' option?
16:47 francharb_afk nengard, i dont think so
16:47 jcamins nengard: SingleBranchMode.
16:47 nengard hmmm
16:48 jcamins nengard: so, no.
16:48 nengard but there is a preference :)
16:48 jcamins nengard: you could hide it with jQuery.
16:48 wizzyrea ^^ I was going to suggest that
16:48 jcamins nengard: there is a preference, but it doesn't really work with holds.
16:48 I think. Check with sekjal on the exact problem.
16:48 nengard i didn't ask about holds
16:49 i asked about the 'set library' link
16:49 the one in the top right
16:49 wizzyrea he means using singlebranchmode mucks holds
16:49 turning it on has multiple effects
16:49 1. hides what you are referring to
16:49 jcamins nengard: right. If you turn on SingleBranchMode, holds are broken.
16:49 wizzyrea 2. does something to holds
16:49 nengard OH!!!!!
16:49 wizzyrea etc.
16:49 nengard is there a bug for that?
16:49 I assume so
16:49 jcamins nengard: somewhere...

16:51 nengard right
16:51 Oak me go now
16:51 nengard i'm not seeing a bug about SingleBranchMode and holds
16:51 jcamins wizzyrea: yes, that is the point, I thought.
16:51 nengard: hm. It might be broken.
16:51 *fixed
16:51 * jcamins sighs.
16:51 wizzyrea can we close that bug as "invalid"
16:51 jcamins
16:51 4941
16:51 francharb_afk am i dreaming? there was a permission before that allow librarian to set or not their library?
16:52 right?
16:52 wizzyrea singlebranchmode, I thought
16:52 francharb_afk s/there was/there were
16:52 nengard it's a dup of bug 7156
16:52 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7156 major, P5 - low, ---, paul.poulain, NEW , singleBranchMode description wrong
16:52 francharb_afk wizzyrea, but it's a syspref, not a patron permission...
16:52 wizzyrea no, I don't think there was
16:53 francharb_afk hummm
16:53 thanks
16:53 wizzyrea I'm going to double check tho
16:53 jcamins wizzyrea: arguably it should be split into two sysprefs, and made so that it doesn't impact anything else.
16:53 wizzyrea well ian has a point - we oughta just count brances
16:53 and there's a bug for that too
16:54 http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]=singlebranchmode
16:54 bug 7314
16:54 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7314 minor, P4, ---, ian.walls, NEW , Remove singleBranchMode system preference in favour of counting configured branches
16:54 jcamins wizzyrea: except, really, there should be an option to not let people change which branch they're looking at.
16:54 wizzyrea ^^ is the right path, I think
16:54 jcamins Which is what nengard asked for initially.
16:55 wizzyrea right, SBM apparently does that
16:55 nengard so what we need is to close some of those and open a new one that says SingleBranchMode should be two prefs
16:55 one for staff and one for opac
16:55 becuase right now it does both but says it only does opac
16:55 right??
16:55 wizzyrea or just change the pref descriptions
16:55 jcamins nengard: well, that's what bug 4941 is about. Also, "SingleBranchMode" should be renamed, becuse it's a confusing name.
16:55 wizzyrea single branch is a single branch in both opac and intranet
16:55 jcamins *because
16:55 * wizzyrea doesn't find it confusing
16:55 jcamins And SingleBranchMode should *only* affect display, not holds too.
16:55 nengard bug 7156 says the description is wrong
16:56 but i agree with jcamins that we should have two prefs
16:56 wizzyrea now I can get behind that
16:56 WHY
16:56 nengard cause one to control both staff and opac is silly
16:56 jcamins wizzyrea: centralized cataloging.
16:56 wizzyrea mmmmmm there are other ways around that
16:56 that don't involve single branch mode.
16:57 jcamins wizzyrea: the workaround is jcamins_lib1, jcamins_lib2, jcamins_lib3, jcamins_lib4, if you're insistent on using single branch mode.
16:57 wizzyrea: yes, the best option is to not use single branch mode at all.
16:57 But some libraries insist.
16:58 reiveune bye
16:58 wizzyrea then i assert that SBM should ONLY do the OPAC
16:58 reiveune left #koha
16:58 wizzyrea like the description says
16:58 jcamins wizzyrea: that makes sense to me.
16:58 wizzyrea because any quote 123 that a library can come up with for the staff sied
16:58 I think we can deal with using the tools we've already got
16:58 jcamins wizzyrea: and then just use jQuery to hide the selection thing on the staff client if necessary.
16:59 wizzyrea: but I think SingleBranchMode is a confusing name, since it makes it sound like you're disabling multiple branches, when really you should just be changing the OPAC.
16:59 wizzyrea it is if we decide that SBM is really OPAC-SBM
16:59 if SBM does nothing to the intranet
17:00 kf jcamins: I think it was made for libraries with only 1 branch - so should work everywhere
17:00 wizzyrea it makes sense to specify
17:00 rangi what kf said
17:00 kf :)
17:01 wizzyrea which actually brings me back to my original point, that libraries with multiple branches shouldn't be using single branch mode ever.
17:01 rangi what wizzyrea said
17:01 wizzyrea because that is not what it's for.
17:01 rangi ziggactly
17:01 its for when you are a single branch
17:02 wizzyrea it sounds like you have a quote 123 on your hands

18:21 jcamins chris_n: around?
18:22 chris_n yup
18:24 jcamins chris_n: I need your opinion on something: the cover images will need to be retrieved on both the intranet and OPAC. How should that be handled? An opac-image.pl script and a catalogue/image.pl script?
18:25 All the code that actually does the work was moved out of the .pl script and into a .pm, but there's still a little duplication.
18:25 * chris_n wonders if the image retrieval could be a function in a pm rather than a stand-alone
18:26 jcamins chris_n: the problem is that it has to be served by Apache, which means that there has to be a .pl to actually output the image data.
18:27 chris_n I suppose you'll have to do two scripts then
18:28 jcamins Unless, I suppose, I export both a RetrieveImage function and a ServeImage function, the latter of which produces the output with headers.
18:28 (so that all the script does is have the single call "print ServeImage($query)";
18:31 I really don't like having anything to do with the UI in the pm, though.
18:34 chris_n: thanks. Just checking you didn't have any better ideas.
18:35 chris_n its friday and I've run out of good ideas for the week ;-)
18:36 but what you said sounds fine to me
18:36 jcamins You get a quota of good ideas per *week*?
18:36 * chris_n is also tired of debugging a script which takes 5 min to execute each run
18:36 * jcamins is jealous. :P
18:36 chris_n heh

18:36 jcamins chris_n: oh, I hate debugging scripts like that.

19:03 libsysguy anybody using SSL with Koha
19:04 rangi yup
19:04 libsysguy apache keeps dying on me when i enable the ssl engine with the path to the key/crt
19:04 and I can't figure out what im doing wrong (first ssl config)
19:04 rangi hmm that wont be a koha specific thing
19:05 nothing in the error log?
19:05 libsysguy i figured i screwed up somewhere :p
19:05 I didn't see anything
19:05 i was tailing it
19:05 rangi did you do a stop, then a start?
19:05 libsysguy just a restart
19:05 wizzyrea tailing the main log or the log for the virtualhost?
19:05 rangi try a stop then start
19:05 it might be asking for a pass phrase
19:05 libsysguy main log
19:06 rangi thats it
19:06 wizzyrea woohoo
19:06 rangi yeah
19:06 so thats cool security wise
19:06 libsysguy rangi++
19:06 rangi kinda suck
19:06 jcamins Does it ask for a passphrase every time it starts?
19:06 rangi practicality wise
19:06 yes
19:06 jcamins That seems less than ideal.
19:06 rangi if you chose to put a passphrase on the key
19:06 libsysguy indeed
19:07 rangi well you can use ssl for lots of things
19:07 wizzyrea curiosity - does a restart break it every time then?
19:07 rangi yes, so you will want to strip the passphrase
19:07 wizzyrea or once it's authd it's cool
19:07 rangi if you want to use it with apache
19:07 wizzyrea ew.
19:07 libsysguy gotcha
19:07 and yes ew
19:07 wizzyrea the things you learn here.
19:08 libsysguy secondly...I guess I should configure the virtualhost to use 443 instead of just dumping SSL in the normal opac config
19:09 if i just put the config in the opac side of things i get a 400 error
19:09 rangi yes
19:09 libsysguy cool
19:09 rangi i have 2 opac virtualhosts
19:09 one on port 80
19:10 that just redirects to the 443 one
19:10 libsysguy i suppose I should listen on 443 as well
19:10 oh look at that its already enabled
19:11 those guys working on apache :p
19:11 rangi https://support.vazio.com/inde[…]e&kbarticleid=122
19:11 libsysguy awww yeahhh rangi ++
19:11 rangi make sure you get the permissions on the file write, so its not readable by all
19:11 or even group
19:12 just root
19:12 right
19:12 libsysguy i think the group permissions are just set on ssl_group
19:12 rangi since now without a passphrase anyone can use it if they get hold of it
19:12 libsysguy or something of the like
19:12 right
19:13 rangi i give you this link http://instantboss.org/
19:13 rangi teehee http://www.malcolmgladwellbookgenerator.com/

19:17 Rural When setting the IP range of a library, can one set oddball ranges, like a /20?
19:17 nengard oh no
19:17 did i have a typo?
19:17 i'm trying to do 300 things at once and can't type fast enough
19:17 rangi yep, in your name :)
19:17 wizzyrea go slow, homie.
19:18 nengard can't go slow
19:18 too much to get done

19:18 wizzyrea bummer
19:18 nengard couldn't get good flights
19:19 jcamins wizzyrea: 245$h is medium.
19:19 wizzyrea: also, watch this:

19:19 huginn` jcamins: Medium
19:19 jcamins ^^ isn't that cool?
19:19 wizzyrea hrmph

19:19 can you string them together

19:20 huginn` wizzyrea: unknown tag bpnh
19:20 wizzyrea see
19:20 that's what I needed :P
19:20 @marc b
19:20 huginn` wizzyrea: unknown tag b
19:20 wizzyrea oh
19:20 @marc 245 bpnh
19:20 huginn` wizzyrea: unknown field/subfield combination (245/bpnh)
19:20 jcamins wizzyrea: if you put the subfields in that order, your catalogers are liable to bite your head off.
19:21 wizzyrea eh, i'm tasty. let em bite.
19:21 jcamins Just FYI. ;)
19:22 Rural So... No way to specify non-aligned sub-net ranges (ie. a /20)?
19:22 jcamins Rural: not to my knowledge.
19:23 Rural: making the IP range support the standard /n notation would be pretty nifty, though.
19:23 And shouldn't be too hard.
19:23 *hinthint*
19:23 ;)
19:25 libsysguy rangi how did you do your redirect...did you actually do a redirect or just a rewite rule?
19:25 Rural jcamins: Thanks. And I agree. It would be nifty.
19:26 rangi redirect
19:26 libsysguy ok cool, except the login page?
19:26 rangi no, whole site is ssl
19:27 hit http://library.plantandfood.co.nz
19:27 libsysguy ahh well played sir...
19:28 jcamins Rural: you should try it. It would be a good way to get your feet wet on the code, if you haven't contributed anything yet. :)
19:28 rangi: what have you done to me?!? I've been channelling you all day!
19:29 rangi heh
19:37 Rural jcamins: I've got about 20 minutes of experience running Koha. Jumping into the code would be premature. But after I've got some more experience... I'll put it on my list.
19:37 wizzyrea ah yea, making koha better is on everyone's list
19:37 jcamins Rural: nonsense. Fresh eyes are always welcome. :D
19:38 Rural On a different topic: There must be catalogs of common books that one can import into Koha. Probably a plethora to choose from. Any pointers/suggestions?
19:39 jcamins irspy?
19:39 irspy is http://irspy.indexdata.com.
19:39 irspy?
19:39 wahanui irspy is, like, http://irspy.indexdata.com
19:39 jcamins There we go.
19:39 wahanui: forget irspy
19:39 wahanui jcamins: I forgot irspy
19:39 jcamins irspy is a good source for identifying Z39.50 targets. See http://irspy.indexdata.com.
19:39 irspy?
19:39 wahanui somebody said irspy was a good source for identifying Z39.50 targets. See http://irspy.indexdata.com.
19:39 jcamins Even better.
19:39 Rural: irspy has a list of Z39.50 targets you can use.
19:40 Rural Thanks.
19:41 Or can Koha tie into an online catalog? That would be much better.
19:41 wizzyrea koha is an online catalog :P
19:42 Rural Nice.
19:42 wizzyrea what are you trying to do exactly?
19:42 the first question?
19:42 wahanui somebody said the first question was "What are you trying to do?"
19:42 wizzyrea keke
19:43 Rural Just trying to save our librarians from having to enter all of a book's information.
19:43 wizzyrea oh
19:43 Rural I see that I can import Marc records.
19:43 jcamins Rural: that's what copy cataloging is all about. You'd use Z39.50 if you don't have a subscription to OCLC.
19:43 wizzyrea ^^
19:43 Rural Ok.
19:44 wizzyrea so there's a button
19:44 in cataloging
19:44 z39.50 search
19:44 * wizzyrea just goes to the manual... one minute
19:44 wizzyrea manual?
19:44 wahanui manual is, like, at http://www.koha-community.org/documentation
19:45 wizzyrea http://manual.koha-community.o[…]ng.html#addbibrec
19:45 Rural Gotcha.
19:45 wizzyrea most times people do this by ISBN
19:45 Rural Ya. I'm digging through the manual and reading a newbie guide. It's a lot to take in.
19:46 But I'm not complaining.
19:46 wizzyrea koha does lots of stuff :)
19:46 but, that 2nd link up there is pretty much exctly what you're wanting to do
19:46 or at least, as I understand it
19:58 Rural Ya. This is making sense. I don't think I've been successful at adding a Z39.50 search target. But I get the picture.
19:58 Thanks.
19:58 rangi Rural: you arent behind a firewall eh?
19:58 sometimes you need to open some outbound ports
19:58 jcamins Rural: if you installed the sample Z39.50 servers, the LC one should Just Work.
19:58 rangi (as well as get the right config)
20:01 trea any suggestions on how to deal with a zebraqueue that doesn't seem to be updating via the cronjob?
20:01 Rural I don't think it's a firewall issue. (Networks are my thing.)
20:01 wizzyrea oh did you install the sample z servers?
20:01 jcamins trea: How do you know it's not updating?
20:02 Rural Just have to find one that I don't need a name or password to access.
20:02 trea select * from zebraqueue has a ton of old stuff in it
20:02 rangi where done is 0 ?
20:02 jcamins trea: and if you run it manually with -v, does it say anything?
20:02 Rural: none of the servers listed on irspy should require username/password, so far as I know.
20:02 rangi cos select * will show you done stuff too, unless you use the where
20:04 jwagner trea, this query will show you titles of bibs that are waiting for indexing: select zebraqueue.id, zebraqueue.biblio_auth_number, zebraqueue.operation, zebraqueue.server, zebraqueue.done, zebraqueue.time, biblio.title from zebraqueue join biblio on (zebraqueue.biblio_auth_number = biblio.biblionumber) where done = '0' and zebraqueue.server = 'biblioserver'
20:04 trea ah, my bad. in this case using where done = 0 only shows a few items, that are well within the cron's interval
20:05 Rural Hmmm... I don't see any sample Z39.50 servers.
20:05 trea thanks for the help everyone
20:06 Rural Suppose I should find the sample ones to install.
20:08 jcamins Rural: I'd imagine it would be just as fast to just enter LC by hand.
20:11 Rural Ah! Library of Congress. Gotcha.

20:34 schuster joined #koha
20:36 schuster Confused looking at the download koha link - 3.6.1 was released November 29th, 2011, and it is saying 3.4.7 was released Dec 7th.  I assume that is really 3.6.? the most recently done?
20:37 jcamins schuster: no, that's correct. There are multiple stable versions.
20:37 3.6.1 is the most up-to-date stable version, but 3.4.7 was released after 3.6.1.
20:39 schuster OK so if I wanted the most stable up to date I should go for the 3.6.1?  We're going to build a community server for possible production next summer and have to give information to a third party.
20:39 jcamins schuster: that's correct.
20:39 schuster Thanks as always you are a wealth of information!
20:39 jcamins schuster: but by next summer, there will be new versions.
20:39 By the end of this month, there will be 3.6.2.
20:40 And by June there should be a 3.8.2 or so.
20:40 schuster ok thanks
20:40 Yes, but I have to get them moving now or it will be 6 months before they do anything again!
20:40 jcamins schuster: of course.
20:41 Just make sure they don't think that providing you 3.6.1 is good enough for next summer. ;)
20:41 rhcl_lunch schuster: what do you mean by community server?
20:41 jcamins rhcl: a server that uses Koha and not a proprietary fork.
20:50 rhcl well, that sounds like koha to me, w/o adjectives
20:51 jcamins rhcl: agreed.

21:24 trea is 942$n the standard field for opac suppression?
21:25 jcamins trea: usually.
21:25 For MARC21.
21:26 trea okay, that being said - when the opacsuppression syspref is enabled, and you edit marc records to specify the 942$n to suppress said record, should this take effect immediately? or does it go into the zebraqueue and becomes suppressed after the next run of the zebra cron.
21:26 jcamins The latter.
21:26 trea okay, that would explain it then. jcamins++

22:04 schuster sorry my test system is belly up...  New project for the weekend
22:04 jcamins It'd be a shame if you had nothing to do. :P
22:04 That'd be boring.
22:04 And would deny me your company while I'm working on Koha this weekend.
22:05 schuster look at the date added they are not sequential that way are they?
22:05 I was looking at the demo online and that is how those are sorted.
22:06 jcamins Oh, and because I'm adding them one after the other, it's random?
22:06 That could be.
22:06 It's just a minor annoyance.
22:08 schuster On the regular display at one time those were "sorted" by the item type.  I am not sure now we would have to look at the template for holdings - table sort
22:08 wizzyrea the regular display is sorted by homebranch -> acquisition date
22:08 dsc
22:08 I believe.
22:09 well... I take that back
22:09 jcamins Hm.
22:09 wizzyrea currently
22:09 it's doing it by holdingbranch
22:09 which is dumb.
22:09 unless that patch I did got in...
22:10 schuster jcamins - I'm leaving you in better hands...  wizzyrea knows more than I and has done more patches!

22:11 wizzyrea tht will need quite a lot of testing
22:11 jcamins Ohhh. I see. I bet this is a side effect of sekjal's patch for improving the efficiency.
22:11 wizzyrea no, actually
22:12 side effect of one of owens patches to fix the links for the home branch in the opac
22:12 jcamins Huh.
22:12 wizzyrea and yes, I did in fact touch items.pm
22:12 and was terrified the whole time.
22:12 * jcamins sends wizzyrea a cookie.
22:13 reconsiders, sends a bar of dark chocolate.
22:13 wizzyrea hehe ty
22:13 jcamins Like dementors, the only treatment for items.pm is chocolate.
22:13 wizzyrea (in all truth, I didn't find it *that* obtuse.)
22:13 (I mean, it was a little obtuse)
22:13 (but not search.pm obtuse)
22:14 jcamins Actually, Items.pm isn't as bad as a lot of the other code. But it's still scary.
22:17 Incidentally, didn't Holding branch show up on the OPAC in the past?
22:17 * jcamins checks whether he jQuery-d it away.
22:18 wizzyrea yes - that was the problem, it was putting the holding branch's url on the home branch name
22:18 or the other way around I can't remember
22:18 but something like that, you wouldn't necessarily get the website of the library you clicked on
22:18 jcamins No, I mean, I don't see Holding branch *at all*.
22:18 wizzyrea i think that's because it only shows holding branch.
22:18 jcamins Ah.
22:18 Okay.
22:18 wizzyrea and doesn't show home branch
22:18 jcamins So that's not new.
22:19 wizzyrea right
22:19 nothing changed there
22:19 * jcamins had never thought about it one way or the other before.
22:20 wizzyrea personally, and I know for my libraries, it'd be nice to see the homebranch instead of the holding branch there
22:20 * jcamins would find that more useful, too.
22:21 wizzyrea you know I didn't ever actually pursue that
22:21 or if I did It was at a time when I was much dumber
22:23 * jcamins decides to call it a day.
22:24 jcamins I'll sign off on your patch, if you'd like. :)
22:24 Make it a syspref, defaulting to the current behavior.
22:24 Good night, #koha.
22:24 wizzyrea or just show both :P
22:24 jcamins_away Or that.
22:24 wizzyrea which was what we did in the staff client
22:24 i will think about that
22:25 * wizzyrea has never made a syspref
22:25 wizzyrea that's like admitting defeat around here.
22:25 ;)
22:34 schuster :) you learn and then I'll pester you later about how you did it.
