| 04:26 | dgl-library | I have a question about the OPAC |
| 04:27 | what do I need to enable to get it up and running? when I go to 192.168.2.4:8080 I get the staff client, but at 192.168.2.4 I just see a message that says "It works! | |
| 04:27 | This is the default web page for this server. | |
| 04:27 | The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet." | |
| 04:29 | I guess this is one of those RTFM moments... | |

| 07:51 | drojf | good day #koha |
| 08:04 | cait | hi drojf :) |
| 09:39 | mveron joined #koha | |
| 09:50 | dgl-library | hello everybody -- I have a question about copy numbers (i.e. multiple copies of one title) |
| 09:51 | adnc joined #koha | |
| 09:52 | dgl-library | If anyone knows... is there a way to get Koha to assign copy numbers automatically? I didn't realize that wasn't happening automatically, so the copy numbers are all blank right now. |
| 09:52 | cait | dgl-library: sorry, there is no way to do it automatically |
| 09:52 | dgl-library | cait: oh. wish I were a programmer--I'd contribute a fix to that. thanks for the info. |
| 09:53 | cait | dgl-library: perhaps you will one day |
| 09:53 | dgl-library | so when I choose Add Multiple I have to go back and re-edit each item? |
| 09:53 | cait | hm |
| 09:53 | have you tried to put a 1 into the first? | |
| 09:53 | some values are updated when you use the add multiple function | |
| 09:53 | like the barcodes | |
| 09:55 | dgl-library | we're gonna try that right now--as an experiment |
| 09:57 | btw, any idea how to add the copy number to a label? the instructions say "You may include any Koha field or MARC subfield" but I'm not sure where the codes for those Koha fields are listed. | |
| 09:59 | there seem to be codenames for each field. | |
| 10:03 | cait | dgl-library: I thin it's referring to the field in the database |
| 10:03 | koha database schema | |
| 10:03 | koha database schema? | |
| 10:03 | schema? | |
| 10:03 | wahanui | schema is tracked in git. or found at http://schema.koha-community.org |
| 10:03 | cait | ah here |
| 10:03 | dgl-library | ah--thanks (and to the bot) |
| 10:03 | cait | look for table items |
| 10:05 | dgl-library | bingo! "copynumber" |
| 10:05 | thanks cait. where on the planet are you, btw? we're in India. | |
| 10:05 | cait | Germany :) |
| 10:05 | dgl-library | dankeschoen (?) |
| 10:10 | cait | gern geschehen (you are welcome) |
| 10:15 | dgl-library | results of the experiment: Add Multiple correctly adds consecutive barcode numbers, |
| 10:15 | but it adds the same copy number to each copy. I would call that a bug. | |
| 10:15 | cait | hm or a missing feature |
| 10:16 | it's not clever enough | |
| 10:16 | dgl-library | ha ha |
| 10:16 | mveron | Hi cait |
| 10:19 | mattsz joined #koha | |
| 10:19 | dgl-library | cait: it seems that Add and Duplicate the consecutive copy number is added automatically, but the barcode must be scanned in |
| 10:20 | mveron | Hi #koha |
| 10:20 | dgl-library | hi mveron |
| 10:21 | mveron | hi dgl-library |
| 10:21 | cait | dgl-library: perhaps file a bug report |
| 10:21 | ? | |
| 10:22 | if it's documented someone might provide apatch | |
| 10:22 | and hi mveron :) | |
| 10:22 | dgl-library | right, I should do that. |
| 10:23 | cait | mveron: down to 7000 |
| 10:23 | mveron | cait: I have some spare time for the translation |
| 10:23 | And yes, great wit the 7000 | |
| 10:23 | cait | it's tirening |
| 10:24 | mveron | It is. It is rainy weather now here in Basel, after two sunny hours. Office weather... |
| 10:24 | cait | hm still sunny here... perhaps I should go out fast :) |
| 10:25 | mveron | http://meteo.search.ch/prognosis |
| 10:27 | cait | oh |
| 10:27 | that does look like rain later | |
| 10:29 | mveron | So go out now. We were on a nice market at St.Louis |
| 10:29 | cait | I will |
| 10:29 | :) | |
| 10:31 | mveron | Enjoy |

| 11:37 | mveron | cait: What do do with wrong spellings in English? - E.g. The transfer sliip is printed... (intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/help/tools/letter.tt:154) |
| 11:37 | cait | mveron: you can't do anything about it in pootle - would need a patch |
| 11:38 | jcamins | Translate it correctly into German, and submit a patch correcting the spelling. |
| 11:38 | cait | I think there is a general bug reort for them somewhere |
| 11:41 | mveron | Found. It is Bug 7368 |

| 11:58 | mveron | Hi chris_n |
| 12:02 | cait | hi chris_n |
| 13:55 | mveron | by #koha |
| 14:23 | adnc joined #koha | |
| 15:35 | mib_pcob0g joined #koha | |
| 15:35 | mib_pcob0g | anyone available? |
| 15:39 | i setup the koha z39.50 server by uncommenting the relevant areas, i also change the id's from publicserver to testserver, when i use another koha to do a search with ISBN/ISSN it doesnt give any results however if i use the title it will return results | |
| 15:41 | how do i setup the z39.50 to respond to isbn searches | |
| 15:43 | jcamins | mib_pcob0g: unfortunately, if it's not working out of the box, fixing it is going to be non-trivial. |
| 15:44 | It means that the publicserver Zebra configuration is not using the correct attribute for ISBN/ISSN. | |
| 15:44 | I'm doing home repair projects today, so I can't offer much help at the moment. | |
| 15:45 | mib_pcob0g | where do i find that configuration |
| 15:45 | jcamins | UNIMARC or MARC21? |
| 15:45 | mib_pcob0g | marc21 |
| 15:45 | jcamins | Good. |
| 15:46 | etc/zebradb/marc_defs/marc21/biblios/record.abs. | |
| 15:46 | The problem is, you have to figure out which attribute the ISBN and ISSN *should* be indexed as. | |
| 15:47 | mib_pcob0g | hmm ok, i'm going to try figure |
| 15:48 | jcamins | Attributes are configured in etc/zebradb/biblios/bib1.att. |
| 16:40 | mib_pcob0g | i cant seem to figure the correct areas for record.abs (att 7 ISBN, att 8 ISSN these from bib1.att) i do see where it references those attributes or numbers it has (# Items Indexes melm 952$0 withdrawn:n,withdrawn:w) and other similar stuffs but none seem to reference title or so |
| 16:45 | jcamins | mib_pcob0g: look around melm 245 for the title bits. |
| 16:45 | ISBN should be 020 | |
| 16:45 | ISSN 022 (I think) | |
| 16:46 | The problem is probably attribute numbers, so it may take a bit of fiddling. | |
| 16:46 | mib_pcob0g | hmm ok thx, that in the section that says koha specific... |
| 16:47 | melm 020$a ISBN:w,Identifier-standard:w i see this line at 54 | |
| 16:52 | jcamins: would you know what that :w stands for? | |
| 16:53 | jcamins | mib_pcob0g: it's a word index. |
| 16:53 | i.e. keyword. | |
| 17:04 | mib_pcob0g | i noted this for 1 title reference (melm 245$a Title-cover:w,Title-cover:p,Title-cover:s,Title:w,Title:p,Title:s) was wondering if Title-cover:w is koha field and the other are other possible fieldnames |
| 17:05 | melm 245$a Title-cover: w,Title-cover: p,Title-cover: s,Title:w,Title p,Title: s | |
| 17:06 | jcamins | mib_pcob0g: those are various indexes. |
| 17:06 | They are associated with bib1 attributes. | |
| 17:11 | mib_pcob0g | i see where it is said that its better to run zebradeamon from cli rather than as a deamon but when i remove the deamon and restart, clients dont get search results |
| 17:11 | jcamins | You shouldn't use zebra*queue* daemon. |
| 17:11 | The zebra daemon is required. | |
| 17:16 | mib_nybd4n joined #koha | |
| 17:17 | mib_nybd4n | good day...real quick question |
| 17:17 | when following the instructions for Koha on Ubuntu, can i not add user Koha and instead use my username? | |
| 17:18 | jcamins | mib_nybd4n: yes you can. |
| 17:18 | mib_nybd4n | i can simply just swap it out correct? |
| 17:21 | jcamins | Yes. Everywhere that it says "do something as user koha," do it as your user. |
| 17:22 | In production, though, it's generally a good idea to use a separate user. | |
| 17:24 | librarygeekadam joined #koha | |
| 17:25 | mib_nybd4n | i see... |
| 17:25 | can you upload pdfs to koha so users can see them and download them? | |
| 17:25 | jcamins | mib_nybd4n: no. |
| 17:26 | mib_nybd4n | ok thank you for your help |

| 17:45 | Oak | \o |
| 17:46 | what's up cait ? | |
| 17:46 | dinner? | |
| 17:46 | wahanui | hmmm... dinner is a good idea. |
| 17:48 | Oak | oh well |
| 18:32 | librarygeekadam joined #koha | |
| 18:32 | librarygeekadam | i am installing Koha on Ubuntu with a Lamp server |
| 18:32 | i am working with the zebra database and am getting the following messages | |
| 18:33 | i type "/usr/share/koha/bin/koha-zebra-ctl.sh /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon" | |
| 18:33 | I get this "File exists" | |
| 18:33 | good right...but then on the next command I get this | |
| 18:34 | "etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon: file does not exist" | |
| 18:34 | i just told me it existed so why is it now saying it does not exist? | |
| 18:34 | i appreciate any help anyone can offer | |
| 18:36 | jcamins | librarygeekadam: what are you trying to do? |
| 18:37 | librarygeekadam | just install koha on a lamp server on ubuntu |
| 18:37 | jcamins | Where did you get that command from? |
| 18:37 | librarygeekadam | the directions tell me to "Setup Zebra Server to Automatically..." |
| 18:37 | from the koha-community wiki | |
| 18:37 | jcamins | Okay, you missed a very important part of that. |
| 18:38 | librarygeekadam | ok |
| 18:38 | which part | |
| 18:38 | wahanui | which part is probably not right for you |
| 18:38 | jcamins | At the very beginning, you need "sudo ln -s" |
| 18:38 | (followed by a space, followed by the two file names) | |
| 18:38 | librarygeekadam | for the first command? |
| 18:38 | i am using sudo su | |
| 18:38 | jcamins | In that case, you don't need sudo. |
| 18:38 | Just ln -s | |
| 18:38 | librarygeekadam | let me check... |
| 18:39 | jcamins | I am only responding to what you say... I'm not looking at the instructions. |
| 18:39 | librarygeekadam | i entered it correcty because I coppied and past |
| 18:40 | the first command "ln -s /usr/share/koha/bin/koha-zebra-ctl.sh /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon" | |
| 18:40 | works fine | |
| 18:40 | jcamins | Okay. |
| 18:40 | librarygeekadam | it tells me the file exists |
| 18:40 | the second command "update-rc.d koha-zebra-daemon defaults" | |
| 18:40 | tells me that the file does not exist | |
| 18:40 | and its the same file that it told me existed in the previous command | |
| 18:40 | jcamins | I'm not sure, sorry. |
| 18:40 | librarygeekadam | thats ok |
| 18:41 | just trying to figure out if its a problem or not | |
| 18:41 | jcamins | It may mean that you have to manually start the Zebra server when you restart the server. |
| 18:41 | librarygeekadam | i have ignored this problem before on install and the install went fine |
| 18:41 | jcamins | It also might not. |
| 18:41 | I didn't do that command, and Zebra starts up for me automatically. | |
| 18:41 | librarygeekadam | just trying to figure out all the details |
| 18:41 | ok | |
| 18:41 | i'll continue on and chalk it up to a bug or something | |
| 18:41 | lol | |
| 18:41 | thanks for your time | |
| 18:43 | jcamins | Good luck. |

| 22:58 | jurgens | Hi, I've recently installed the Koha Live DVD from Vimal Kumar V based on Ubuntu 10..04 LTS and it works great. Will there be another Live CD/DVD based on the next upcoming LTS [Ubuntu 12.04] ? |
| 22:59 | jcamins | jurgens: that's up to Vimal Kumar. |
| 22:59 | jurgens | Else, would it be possible to just upgrade the current 10.04 to 12.04 and be confident that koha will still work? |
| 22:59 | I'm relatively new to this, so I apologize for what seems a silly question | |
| 23:00 | jcamins | With the live cd, I have no idea. |
| 23:01 | In general, yes, you can upgrade the operating system. | |
| 23:07 | jurgens | Thanks, thought so. If it doesn't work I can always reinstall and reload the backups! |
| 23:07 | I like the idea of releasing koha along with an LTS version. | |
| 23:09 | jcamins | The community doesn't have the manpower to offer long term support. |
