00:36 librarygeekadam good evening to everyone
00:36 I have a quick question if anyone can be of assistance
00:37 I just installed Koha 3.06.02 on a single Ubuntu laptop following the instructions on the community page
00:37 i am editing "Item Types"
00:37 I am not given the option to add Renewals
00:38 How many times a patron can renew an item
00:38 any ideas?
00:42 perhaps another question...can i revert my Koha back to the web install parts?

09:08 ?
09:08 rangi yup
09:08 marcelr pref is not used?
09:08 rangi the usecache syspref is used in another bug

09:11 rangi thats it
09:11 marcelr ok
09:11 rangi the env stuff was added recently, after that patch was written
09:11 im not sure i like it
09:12 marcelr no it adds another approach to prefs
09:12 rangi yeah
09:13 7249 allows this
09:13 http://opac.koha.workbuffer.or[…]/svc/report?id=15
09:13 and this
09:13 http://opac.koha.workbuffer.or[…]/svc/report?id=13
09:14 which in turn allows you to do
09:14 http://academy17.catalyst.net.[…]s/Koha/start.html
09:14 with jquery
09:14 (its what we had the highschool students doing)
09:15 marcelr ok
09:15 rangi </blather>
09:17 also, 7248, (when its fixed) allows bug 7387
09:17 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7387 enhancement, PATCH-Sent (DO NOT USE), ---, chris, Needs Signoff , Add Template::Toolkit plugin to allow caching of includes
09:19 magnuse is there some other development that clashes with this?
09:21 rangi hmm dont think so
09:22 magnuse ah, i misunderstood something earlier then - never mind
09:23 rangi marcelr: ill get chrisdothall to take a look at the bug tomorrow
09:23 marcelr good
09:27 rangi magnuse: http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]e_Debian_packages   <-- good write up
09:28 magnuse thanks, rangi - there's probably room for improvement, but it's a start
09:28 rangi yup
09:28 magnuse and hopefully lots of people will need something like that ;-)

13:50 jwagner joined #koha
13:50 marcelr seems so
13:51 kf_lunch when I checked it was set to sign off
13:51 I mean needs sign-off
13:51 marcelr it was till i changed it to assigne
13:51 kf_lunch ah
13:52 hm
13:52 perhaps it gives us bugs leaving the needs sign-off status now instead of those entering it?
13:52 marcelr should status change be done there still

14:26 mbalmer hi, I have a printing question:  as anybody used an EPSON T M-T88 receipt printer, connected serially to a Linux machine?

14:39 oleonard mbalmer: I've only ever used the T-1000 and I could never get it to talk to Linux. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:T-1000_002.png
14:39 mbalmer ok, I see.
14:39 oleonard ;)
14:41 chris_n 3.6.3 by noon est
14:41 so why is it that after completing a transfer the item status field still shows in transit?
14:42 hdl is updated when checked in
14:44 chris_n ie. http://oi39.tinypic.com/2mma4y8.jpg
14:45 hdl: so after completing the transfer it is also necessary to check in at the branch?
14:45 hdl yep
14:46 oleonard chris_n: What did you mean by "completing the transfer?"
14:46 hdl but you'd better ask paul_p_
14:46 this is what I experienced.
14:46 chris_n circ > transfer
14:46 when I attempt to check in, koha tells me its not checked out
14:47 perhaps some background will help
14:47 oleonard chris_n: check-in won't tell you that a transfer has been made, not if the book has arrived at its destination
14:47 chris_n one of our librarians check some books out while logged in under the wrong granch
14:47 branch eve
14:47 even
14:47 she later checked them in under the right branch
14:48 now each of those items shows an "in transfer" status, but they are listed in the correct location (see screenshot above)
14:48 feature or bug?
14:48 :)
14:49 oleonard Bug. Checking them in should have removed the transfer status
14:49 * chris_n wonders if this bug is in master
14:49 chris_n we're still running 3.2.x
14:50 I'll file a bug report in a few moments
14:50 I suppose I'll have to hack up some SQL to fix things in the db
14:51 tnx hdl, oleonard
14:52 hdl chris_n: no problem
14:52 mbalmer I found a CUPS driver for the ™-T88IV, but only for a different Linux distro
14:52 no we use a windows 7 PC ;)
14:55 oleonard chris_n: I can't reproduce that in master. Checked out at Branch A, checked in a Branch B.
14:59 patric joined #koha
15:03 maximep joined #koha
15:06 wizzyrea oh yea
15:06 that's a known thing - 2x checkins on transits = bad
15:06 there's a bug for it....
15:07 bug 6226
15:07 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6226 normal, P5 - low, ---, koha.sekjal, NEW , Returning a misrouted item twice causes transit to correct receiving library to disappear
15:07 * chris_n looks
15:07 wizzyrea I'd welcome a patch for that
15:07 NEKLS has a testing protocol for that one.
15:07 :P
15:08 easy to sign of on from here.
15:08 s/of/off/
15:09 chris_n wizzyrea: is that the same as what I'm seeing?
15:10 ie
15:10 wizzyrea either way, receiving a transit twice often causes weirdness
15:10 chris_n check item out at branch a
15:10 return at branch b
15:10 wizzyrea I suspect it's a variant of this
15:10 chris_n and end up with things looking as they do in my screenshot above?
15:10 wizzyrea yep
15:10 chris_n k
15:10 I'll add my notes to that bug them
15:11 along with the screamshot
15:11 oopps
15:11 screenshot
15:11 wizzyrea it either ends up with a stuck transit, or a transit that disappears and orphans the item at the wrong branch
15:11 oleonard I tried that: check item out a branch a, return at branch b... Couldn't reproduce in master.
15:11 wizzyrea hehe screamshot
15:12 is that on master chris_n?
15:12 i admit I haven't tried to reproduce that on master recently
15:12 but we see the "double checkin does weird stuff" thing even now on 3.6.0
15:13 (for transits)
15:13 chris_n no, 3.2.x
15:13 wizzyrea ah then yea
15:13 that bug and it's variants would be in full force. :P
15:13 * chris_n feels like doing a screamshot sometimes ;-)
15:14 wizzyrea sometimes checking out and checking in the item clears the transit - sometimes.
15:14 chris_n I'll try that
15:14 wizzyrea this bug is the reason that nekls wants a "check status" that's separate from the check in box.
15:15 rangi and I talked about that - the catalog would work fine for that if you could just scan a barcode and bring back exactly the item you were looking for.
15:15 we talked about a tickbox for "exact search"
15:15 in the staff client catalog
15:15 oh, and good morning.
15:16 chris_n interesting
15:16 wizzyrea right now our librarians often want to quickly check an item, but scanning in the barcode to search doesn't bring back the item they're looking for
15:16 so they use the checkin
15:16 chris_n I just checked the item out at branch b and then in at branch a and the status corrected itself
15:16 wizzyrea WOO!
15:17 nice :)
15:17 chris_n what a lot of work to do
15:17 wizzyrea yea
15:17 chris_n probably a dozen or more items are wrong :P
15:17 wizzyrea oh yuck.
15:17 chris_n bug_fixing++
15:17 I'll add this case to the bug
15:17 right after releasing 3.6.3, though ;-)
15:17 wizzyrea hehe
15:18 chris_n chrome application short cuts are very slick and extremely useful for anyone interested
15:18 they allow you to run multiple independent log-ins to koha under the same user account
15:19 wizzyrea *nod* did you happen to get kiosk mode working with silent printing?
15:19 chris_n w/o the chocolate chip cookies getting mixed up with the sugar cookies
15:19 wizzyrea mmm cookies.
15:19 chris_n wizzyrea: hmm.... not yet
15:19 wizzyrea ah is no biggie
15:19 that's something I should probably look at
15:20 the firefox update thing is really irritating
15:20 chris_n koha looks very slick inside an application-style window, though
15:20 wizzyrea it nukes our printer settings and header/footer settings for receipts every time it updates
15:20 and it updates like, every month.
15:20 chris_n eekkk
15:20 wizzyrea i'd switch us to chrome in a heartbeat
15:22 if only we could get kiosk silent printing :)
15:25 * magnuse waves
15:28 druthb hi, magnus!
15:28 magnuse howdy druthb
15:29 oleonard Leave it to Internet Explorer to take a perfectly valid page and screw up the rendering
15:29 IE--
15:30 and IE 8 no less.
15:31 * oleonard wants that browser to die completely, no new version, nothing
15:33 magnuse hear, hear
15:33 * chris_n runs a final pass of the test suite before rolling up 3.6.3
15:33 magnuse woohoo!
15:33 chris_n and we're go for lift-off
15:36 magnuse chris_n++
15:37 chris_n: i hope you will be able to include norwegian bokmål in the list of "Complete or near-complete translations" for 3.6.4 :-)
15:38 chris_n that would be great
15:39 3.6.3 rolling up as you read this <---
15:40 hdl congrats chris_n
15:40 magnuse yeah, hooray for chris_n!
15:42 oleonard chris_n++
15:43 chris_n and you may now get it @download.kc.org

15:45 chris_n now to crow about it a bit :)
15:45 jenkins_koha Starting build #32 for job Koha_3.6.x (previous build: FIXED)
15:49 chris_n done deal
15:50 * wizzyrea throws confetti
15:50 chris_n mega bug fixes
15:50 * wizzyrea puts out an array of hot, cold, bubbly, and not bubbly drinks for everyone to enjoy
15:51 maximep haha
15:51 oleonard Aw man, I only drink lukewarm slightly-bubbly drinks
15:52 * wizzyrea gets room temperature, 30 minute old ginger ale for oleonard

15:52 ewwwww
15:54 maximep wizzyrea++ for making me laugh on this very bad morning
15:55 wizzyrea :D
15:57 chris_n 3.4.8 on saturday
15:57 wizzyrea I'm always glad to hadn out laughs.
15:57 squee!
15:57 NateC joined #koha
15:58 chris_n 3.4.8 will have mega bugfixes too
15:58 that will be a hard branch to kill
15:58 * chris_n should use the more gentle "lay to rest"
15:58 wizzyrea I think we're pretty generous in supporting 2 major releases back.
15:59 hdl is wise.
16:00 * magnuse starts building his packages from 3.6.3
16:02 rangi the problem with 3.4.x isnt that it's ill, it's that it is very solid
16:02 if it had problems, end of life would be an easy choice :)
16:04 chris_n exactly
16:04 rangi stats out for 3.6.3, 3 patches from academy students, 2 from jransoms son connor (who is 14 .. our youngest committer yet I think)
16:04 hdl is 3.6 the one ill then ?
16:04 chris_n and barring any serious changes, it will probably stay that wy
16:04 way, even
16:04 rangi 3.6.x is solid too
16:05 http://blog.bigballofwax.co.nz[…]istics-for-3-6-3/
16:06 * magnuse is a little bit worried by bug 7445 and has applied a quick-and-dirty patch for it, but has otherwise not had any complaints about 3.6.x
16:06 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7445 normal, P5 - low, ---, oleonard, NEW , Clicking on a tag gives "Language ... does not exist"
16:07 rangi magnuse: language picker so should be a TT plugin :)
16:07 cached using TT caching too
16:07 oleonard sekjal wants everything in a matrix, rangi wants everything in a TT plugin
16:07 magnuse huh? i don't think this is related to the language picker
16:08 so a matrix of tt plugins = bliss
16:08 rangi nope, it just reminded me
16:08 magnuse ah, ok, i'm less confused then ;-)
16:09 rangi ok, the wind seems to have finally quietened down, going back to sleep
16:10 magnuse ah, thaought it was a tad early for rangi...
16:20 chris_n wizzyrea: updated bug 6226
16:20 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6226 major, P3, ---, koha.sekjal, NEW , Returning a misrouted item twice causes transit to correct receiving library to disappear
16:24 wizzyrea chris_n++ thx
16:24 magnuse gah, first attempt at building packages was tripped up by tests failing on database dependent tests - t/Koha_template_plugin_KohaDates.t and t/Reports.t
16:25 wizzyrea hm what do they need
16:25 magnuse i'm just getting "Can't connect to local MySQL server"
16:25 wizzyrea bleh
16:26 magnuse 'cause you shouldn't need mysql to build the packages
16:26 i think rangi said they could/should be moved to the dir for the db-dependent tests...
16:27 * magnuse rips them out and tries again and wanders off to make dinner
16:27 jenkins_koha Project Koha_3.6.x build #32: SUCCESS in 42 mn: http://jenkins.koha-community.[…]ob/Koha_3.6.x/32/

16:59 for what this time
16:59 ?
16:59 wizzyrea for finding the cause of an especially insidious problem

17:02 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=3069 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , Koha Z39.50 client process discussion
17:04 wizzyrea well and clearing the reservoir has always been a task that support companies do
17:05 trea so, we need a clean reservoir cronjob?
17:05 wizzyrea well yea
17:05 trea in /etc/cron.monthly
17:05 wizzyrea ^^
17:05 this
17:05 gmcharlt!
17:05 trea gmcharlt: o/
17:05 hdl gmcharlt: :D
17:05 gmcharlt seriously, such a cronjob would be handy, with a couple cavets
17:06 first, since it's used both to cache Z39.50 search results *and* import batches
17:06 the cronjob should distinguish
17:06 kf_mtg I agree
17:06 gmcharlt not that one can't delete import batches, but not willy-nilly, since a batch has to be present in order to do a revert
17:06 kf_mtg I don't want it to touch our regular imports, only z3950
17:06 but I think the information is in the database
17:07 druthb In this case, my script did not distinguish, but the partner site had not done any cleans since 2009, so it needed doing Real Real Bad.  I put in a date param, and it cleans everything before then.
17:07 Guillaume left #koha
17:08 wizzyrea also a UI spot to "purge z39.50 batches"
17:08 gmcharlt secondly, I'm curious about use cases for the reservoir itself -- are there any advantages to keeping it (as more than just a very short-lived cache) when one could just requery the Z39.50 server?
17:08 druthb Easy enough to parameterize letting you choose batch, z, or both, and a "keep this many days" param.
17:09 Then it'd be cronnable.
17:09 gmcharlt druthb: maybe add a locked column for import batches?
17:09 wizzyrea I do like the idea of getting away from the idea of a cache for z results though
17:09 druthb "Don't delet this one, no matter what?"
17:09 gmcharlt druthb: exactly
17:09 wizzyrea there must have been a reason for that at some point?
17:10 druthb gmcharlt:  I like the idea, but that'd be a v.next enhance.  I'm in KISS mode right now.
17:10 gmcharlt fair enough
17:10 druthb wizzyrea: persistence...as in, Koha Doesn't Have It.  Gotta store that data *somewhere*, and just like the sessions table, knowing when to drop it is Kinda Hard.
17:10 gmcharlt but in that case, purging import batches shouldn't be a default option, just z
17:11 Guillaume joined #koha
17:11 gmcharlt wizzyrea: and possibly as a limiting mechanism to avoid pushing too hard on slow/creaky/remote Z39.50 servers?
17:11 druthb gmcharlt:  The way I write scripts, the default is don't do *anything*.   I'm paranoid.
17:11 gmcharlt druthb: cool, then I won't be out to get you
17:11 (or will I?)
17:12 wizzyrea hehe
17:12 trea dun dun dunnnnn
17:12 wizzyrea limit how many you keep at all?
17:12 druthb You'll *have* to specify either -b, -z, or both, (as well as --update) or nothing at all will happen.
17:13 kf_mtg bye all
17:13 wizzyrea byeeee
17:13 * oleonard managed to crash IE after not too long a wait
17:13 wizzyrea oh good I was starting to worry

17:15 druthb hm.  gmcharlt's little enchancement will delay the patch a little, as I have other fish to fry.  Should get it out tonight, tho.
17:15 * druthb finds a way to blame gmcharlt for all sorts of things.
17:16 druthb Delayed patches, the housing bust, global warming...it's all gmcharlt's fault.
17:16 * gmcharlt promises to turn off the lights more regularly
17:17 trea :D
17:17 oleonard It's gmcharlt's fault I can't stop thinking about cats

17:29 paul_p_ OK, time to leave for me. Lyon 3 university is live with Koha 3.6, everything is OK, except a problem/glitch with their 3M self-checkout. I hope to be back to RM business tomorrow morning...
17:32 wizzyrea I love cats. I love every kind of cats.
17:43 oleonard Does the entire world of Inernet Explorer-using people just assume the whole web looks like crap?
17:43 wizzyrea that could explain some things.
17:49 gmcharlt oleonard: low expectations can become self-sustaining
17:50 * wizzyrea starts a campaign "the web doesn't have to suck - try a different browser"
17:53 cait joined #koha
17:53 cait hi #koha
17:54 wizzyrea wb cait
17:56 cait :)
17:57 maximep i'm sure people using ie6 and ie7 know that everything looks like crap and it only gets worst
17:57 the entire quebec governement is still using ie6... pure madness
17:58 oleonard The awful things I'm seeing in IE8 convince me that it just doesn't get better
17:59 maximep oh common, ie8 is easy to support
17:59 compared to ie6 and 7
18:00 ie9 is probably also very hard because it's too good
18:00 -_-
18:00 * maximep is glad he isn't doing that job
18:03 cait wizzyrea: I have a queston for you
18:04 or a general question where I hope wizzyrea has an opinion :)
18:04 the itemtype display in result list and detail page are different
18:04 the detail page shows less information than the result list
18:04 is there any reason for that?
18:04 and do we want to keep it like that?
18:05 talking about the small icons
18:20 mbalmer joined #koha
18:32 wizzyrea hmm
18:36 rangi Morning
18:39 wizzyrea cait - screenshot? please?
18:39 cait hey, good morning rangi
18:39 wizzyrea i suspect that I don't have itemtype images defined or on
18:39 cait oh
18:39 you can see at hfjs.bsz-bw.de
18:39 wizzyrea even better :)
18:42 cait there are 2 icons
18:42 on the results list
18:42 wizzyrea cait you mean the "format, literary form display
18:42 cait but only one on the detail
18:42 yep that
18:43 wizzyrea hm
18:43 I don't see it in english... switching to deutsch
18:43 cait hmm
18:43 give me a minute
18:44 so I don't burn my soup
18:44 and when it's simmering I will look for links
18:44 wizzyrea I don't see it in deutsch either
18:44 screencast is broken atm
18:44 cait perhaps I turned it off there... hmmm
18:44 I will find examples
18:45 wizzyrea no I just only see one icon
18:45 so I may not be clear on what you're asking

18:46 wizzyrea hey that keyboard thing you have is pretty wicked.
18:46 aarkerio hi! somebody knows a Webpage about how import journal articles in koha?
18:47 cait wizzyrea: thx :)
18:47 I put a howto on the wiki for the keyboard
18:48 aarkerio I found this:
18:48 http://lists.katipo.co.nz/publ[…]ruary/017032.html
18:50 cait wizzyrea: seems there is a difference between 3.2.2 and 3.6.3
18:50 wizzyrea ah
18:50 cait but
18:50 the second part is missing
18:50 from the detai lpage
18:50 say we have something like
18:50 wizzyrea right
18:50 cait Type:  Continuing Resource; Format:                      print                 ; Type of continuing resource:                      series
18:51 in result list
18:51 but only type: series
18:51 in detail
18:51 wizzyrea yea, I did notice that
18:51 cait and on 3.6.3 I had sometmes 2 items showing in the result list
18:51 but only always one
18:51 on detail
18:51 wizzyrea I wonder if there's some logic there that shows both biblevel and itemlevel itype that isn't working?
18:51 maybe a TT thing?
18:52 but that doesn't make a whole lot of sense - which item would it pull the item level itemtype from
18:52 so no, probably not that.
18:55 cait nope
18:55 it's all from the record
18:55 leader, 007, 008
18:55 it's supposed to show you what it is
18:56 I have a bug report form one of our libraries
18:56 wizzyrea huh. weird.
18:56 cait complainging about a book when there should be a cd
18:56 so I started looking into it
18:56 and I think it sould be in utils
18:56 or somewhere
18:56 and I think we do it differently for opac and staff... but have to confirm that
18:57 rangi TT filter!
18:57 cait xslt
18:57 lol
18:57 once you have your xslt filter done....
18:57 perhaps? ;)

19:13 oleonard "Item 33000000087725 waiting at Athens hasn't been transferred yet from The Plains"
19:13 How exactly...?
19:13 wizzyrea hah
19:15 rangi back
19:15 wizzyrea i don't think I've ever seen the message "hasn't been transferred yet"
19:17 oleonard That's on the holds tab on circulation.pl
19:18 wizzyrea h
19:18 m
19:18 oleonard detail.pl says "Current location: The Plains; Status: Waiting for X at Athens"
19:18 wizzyrea ooo yea
19:18 sounds like a botched transfer.
19:18 i have seen that
19:18 a checkout/in should clear that
19:18 what version?
19:19 oleonard But I don't even know where the item is... I'm assuming actually in transit between The Plains and Athens
19:19 wizzyrea well it had to have arrived in athens to be marked waiting
19:19 oleonard 3.6.1
19:19 ...except they say it's not there.
19:20 (of course they could be wrong)
19:20 wizzyrea I have heard this story before
19:20 all branches should shelf check for it
19:20 :/
19:20 i am trying to remember
19:20 oleonard Maybe Koha needs some kind of "all branches shelf check" management system...
19:21 wizzyrea select * from branchtransfers where itemnumber = x - you should see an un completed transfer
19:21 heh
19:21 we call that the "cattle prod"
19:21 but in the reserves table
19:21 the same reserve will be marked W
19:22 in theory you should never have a w and an uncompleted transfer, unless the item got misrouted along the way
19:22 oleonard 2010-08-10 19:21:32 | PPL        | 2010-08-12 17:49:34 | APL
19:22 wizzyrea whoa...
19:23 there's only the one
19:23 ?
19:23 and it's completed?
19:23 oleonard That's datesent | frombranch | datearrived | tobranch
19:23 wizzyrea oh I wonder, did something happen to the item in between? like, it was moved from one bib to another
19:23 :) I know :)
19:23 oleonard reserves does say W
19:24 wizzyrea is the bibnumber the same on both?
19:24 I guess branchtransfers doesn't tell you
19:24 it only works with items.
19:24 oleonard right
19:24 wizzyrea i saw one a week or so ago
19:24 oleonard but we don't move items from one bib to another
19:24 wizzyrea where there was a really bizarre status sort of like that
19:25 not even in the case of "I accidentally added this duplicate bib"
19:25 "let me move it's items to the right one"
19:25 its*
19:25 (this happens in nexpress all the time)
19:28 * oleonard gets out the cattle prod
19:30 aarkerio what kind of format is this:

20:15 thanks for looking at that oleonard
20:15 oleonard++
20:16 maximep isn't that a javascript error ?
20:18 oleonard Hahaha, I win! The patch I submitted for all the XHTML and display errors actually fixes Bug 7452!
20:18 wizzyrea :D
20:18 :D:D
20:18 maximep o_O
20:19 oleonard The OPAC lists page had <form>s nested inside a <form>
20:19 wizzyrea O.O
20:20 maximep Ô_ô
20:20 oleonard ...but the nested <form>s were not really necessary, since the inputs are only used by JavaScript
20:20 wizzyrea ლ(ಠ_ಠლ)
20:20 maximep well that shows up as squares here :p
20:20 wizzyrea all of it?
20:21 there *are* in fact 2 squares.
20:21 maximep I see 4

20:25 oh sorry sunday is the worst day
20:25 maximep weird. Id be curious to see our stats, but I can't
20:25 wizzyrea i suspect we have the most libraries open on tuesday maybe?
20:26 oleonard Our graph looks the same. Our biggest branch is closed Mondays.
20:28 schuster are you using google analytics?
20:28 wizzyrea no
20:28 schuster What ya using?
20:28 wizzyrea piwik
20:28 schuster ah I was looking at that the other day...
20:29 One more thing... :)
20:30 maximep is piwik.org down ?
20:30 wizzyrea it's very slow anyway
20:33 schuster but you get stats are they helpful?  We have some specific pages and so I was thinking about tracking those to see how much they are actually used.
20:33 wizzyrea yes, I think they are helpful
