| 00:50 | mtompset | Greetings, #koha folk. | 
| 01:06 | brylie joined #koha | |
| 01:08 | wajasu | ok. got my kvm script to build debiansqueeze+koha, and now i did a git clone and am wiring up the environment, whilst reusing the PERL5LIB. My staf admin interface works fine. The opac complained about GetDailyQuote is not exported by the C4::Koha module. Maybe its just because I pulled from the master. | 
| 01:10 | * mtompset | shrugs, "I don't know." | 
| 01:17 | wajasu | i'll try an pull a stable release tag. | 
| 01:18 | mtompset | I would try to "grep -l GetDailyQuote `find .`" in your koha install. | 
| 01:18 | And then figure out by looking at the code in the modules listed. | |
| 01:35 | any success, wajasu? | |
| 01:43 | wajasu | running cpan to get two perl modules | 
| 01:43 | mtompset | which two? | 
| 01:44 | wajasu | DateTime::Format:MySQL and DateTime::TimeZone | 
| 01:44 | mtompset | Are you sure there isn't a package for the first one? | 
| 01:44 | I did an install attempt under Ubuntu. | |
| 01:44 | I did an "aptitude search datetime-format-mysql" | |
| 01:45 | and it found it. | |
| 01:45 | perhaps a similar search "aptitude search datetime-timezone" might find the second. | |
| 01:46 | wajasu | oh yeah. i forgot. i was literraly following INSTALL.debian (should have searched). | 
| 01:46 | mtompset | Don't worry about it. I've done that before too. :) | 
| 01:47 | I did mention ubuntu expressly in a bug report I put up recently. | |
| 01:47 | bug 8192 | |
| 01:47 | huginn` | 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=8192 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , Update libraries and Missing library in install_misc/ubuntu.packages | 
| 01:48 | mtompset | the missing library is the first one you mentioned: DateTime::Format::MySQL | 
| 01:51 | wajasu | "GetDailyQuote" is not exported by the C4::Koha module | 
| 01:51 | Can't continue after import errors at /kohaclone/opac/opac-main.pl line 26 | |
| 01:51 | BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /kohaclone/opac/opac-main.pl line 26. | |
| 01:52 | Administrator joined #koha | |
| 01:52 | wajasu | maybe i have the /etc/koha/apache2/apache-shared.conf not mapped correctly for opac | 
| 01:56 | mtompset | No, I don't think so. | 
| 01:57 | wajasu | i need to do Makefile.PL and follow the INSTALL.debian (got to get my KOHA_CONF and defined as well. | 
| 01:57 | mtompset | But this is probably a newer feature. | 
| 01:57 | wajasu | i've just done a git pull. and edited the apache stuff. | 
| 01:57 | the staff interface worked. | |
| 01:57 | mtompset | Ah, so you haven't finished the setup steps... | 
| 01:58 | Probably a good idea to finish them first before trying to debug. :) | |
| 02:00 | wajasu | yes. i will have to do this tomorrow with a fresh generated VM and follow the install steps. :) thx | 
| 02:01 | mtompset | What VM package are you using? | 
| 02:02 | Administrator joined #koha | |
| 02:02 | Administrator joined #koha | |
| 02:02 | mtompset | For my testing purposes, I have a windows box with VirtualBox running. | 
| 02:05 | wajasu | i wrote a shell script that i run that uses libvirt. it grabs the debian netinst iso, and a cdrom install using a debian preseeding file, which also installs koha-common, and configures its all. now I am adding a git dev environment to it for patches. libvirt will be able to generate qcow2, vmdk, lvm, kvm based images. | 
| 02:08 | it only took 5 minutes to run in my /dev/shm /tmp directory. (really just waited while grabbing stuff from repos). its a good way to document what it takes. maybe it can be web hosted later and folks can generate different images. my host machine is archlinux. | |

| 03:42 | bencahill | G'night guys, I'm going to unplug because of the storm here. :) | 
| 03:43 | mtompset | Good night, bencahill. | 
| 03:43 | bencahill | mtompset: Hey, I'm just now trying out Sublime Text (just heard of it), and it's awesome! You should give it a try. :P | 
| 03:44 | * bencahill | feels crazy for somewhat ditching vim so fast, but this is out of this world. | 
| 03:44 | mtompset | What is Sublime Text? | 
| 03:44 | And editor? | |
| 03:44 | bencahill | Yup | 
| 03:45 | mtompset | Why install a non-default editor? | 
| 03:45 | Less installs = good. | |
| 03:45 | bencahill | mtompset: Eh, vim is on-default on this distro (arch) | 
| 03:45 | mtompset: And yes, vi/vim has that awesome advantage, and I'll still use it for a lot of things. | |
| 03:46 | mtompset | really?! what editor is installed by default on arch linux? | 
| 03:46 | bencahill | mtompset: vi | 
| 03:46 | s/on-default/n&/ | |
| 03:47 | mtompset | What's wrong with plain vi? | 
| 03:47 | bencahill | Um, no syntax highlighting, for one. | 
| 03:47 | mtompset | BAH! If you can't see the syntax, you need glasses. :P | 
| 03:48 | bencahill | I'm sure there are a lot of other things I like in vim that vi doesn't have. Not that I'm saying vi by itself isn't awesome. ;) | 
| 03:49 | * bencahill | actually likes pretty colors, even though he does use a tiling wm with no window borders. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, eh? | 
| 03:49 | bencahill | But anyway, g'night...I'm just excited. :) | 
| 03:49 | mtompset | When I was in University, emacs was the rage. | 
| 03:49 | Okay... have a good night, bencahill. :) | |

| 08:59 | mtompset | Hey, you guys are trying. I very much appreciate that. | 
| 09:00 | cait | lol | 
| 09:00 | slef | I am very trying! | 
| 09:00 | cait | I dropped gmcharlt a mail too some days ago | 
| 09:00 | no answer yet | |
| 09:00 | perhaps we should try thd | |
| 09:00 | mtompset | From what I can tell in the IRC logs... I missed him by 3 minutes! | 
| 09:01 | How frustrating. | |
| 09:01 | * gmcharlt | pops in -- not just a matter of unblocking email, going to need to figure out a way to deal with mediawiki's laxity | 
| 09:01 | gmcharlt | as we were in danger of getting k-c.org on spam blocks | 
| 09:01 | slef | can we special case approve mtompset account please? | 
| 09:01 | * mtompset | smiles, "Okay... I can relax now. :)" | 
| 09:02 | cait | hi gmcharlt | 
| 09:02 | yes, perhaps some people could be given permission to activate user accounts? | |
| 09:02 | mtompset | A lot of places have a "Are you human?" box that you need to check. | 
| 09:02 | cait | that could work until we get a real solution again | 
| 09:02 | mtompset | And then some even have a simple "What is 3+4?" box. | 
| 09:03 | slef | bulk deleting unapproveds and switching to lots of ppl allowed to approve. maybe from irv | 
| 09:03 | gmcharlt | mtompset: whcih the bots have defeated | 
| 09:03 | slef | irc | 
| 09:03 | gmcharlt | slef: I agree, it's gonig to have to be manual approval | 
| 09:03 | mtompset: what user account did you register? | |
| 09:03 | slef | I hate "are you human?" because most of them say I am not | 
| 09:04 | cait | lol | 
| 09:04 | mtompset | mtompset  hotmail.com | 
| 09:04 | I did send you an email @gmail. | |
| 09:04 | slef | what am I? chopped liver? | 
| 09:04 | * slef | rants off to his mailbox | 
| 09:05 | gmcharlt | mtompset: yes, I mean, what username did you assign yourself? | 
| 09:05 | nm, found it | |
| 09:06 | cait | gmcharlt++ | 
| 09:06 | mtompset | mtompset | 
| 09:06 | wahanui | rumour has it mtompset is taking off | 
| 09:06 | mtompset | wahanui forget mtompset | 
| 09:06 | wahanui | mtompset: I forgot mtompset | 
| 09:06 | gmcharlt | wahanui: forget mtompset | 
| 09:06 | wahanui | gmcharlt, I didn't have anything matching mtompset | 
| 09:06 | * mtompset | laughs, "Great minds think alike." | 
| 09:15 | mtompset | What if there was an email address to which a blank message with "Register Me" as a subject line would generate the confirmation email after the user registered? Bots don't send empty emails, and they don't know the subject line, though they'd likely get the email address. |

| 09:27 | mtompset | Hmm... no password is set... did it ask? | 
| 09:28 | I must have done something wrong. | |
| 09:28 | It said the username is the same as my Real Name. | |
| 09:28 | but I don't think it asked for a password. | |

| 09:45 | drojf | heh | 
| 09:47 | rangi | she | 
| 09:47 | 's brave :) | |
| 09:47 | cait | yep she is :) | 
| 09:48 | slef | hmmm you're not going to like the main answer in my talk then | 
| 09:48 | ohhh this is going to go really badly | |
| 09:48 | all those comments against monoliths | |
| 09:48 | eeeeek I've misread the mood of the room | |
| 09:48 | cait | slef: ??? | 
| 09:49 | slef | cait: my talk has a Big Idea in the middle of it | 
| 09:49 | I think people will hate it now. | |
| 09:49 | cait | you suggest that all libaries start using ebsco? | 
| 09:49 | slef | Oh well. I will walk off a cliff in front of you all. | 
| 09:49 | No, worse. | |
| 09:49 | cait | uhoh | 
| 09:49 | we all go into worldcat? | |
| 09:49 | slef | that is closer | 
| 09:50 | cait | better pack a parachute ;) | 
| 09:50 | drojf | lol | 
| 09:51 | medmondson | make sure that the camera batteries are full before your talk slef ;) | 
| 09:51 | slef | I think I will spend lunch time reading arguments against worldcat | 
| 09:51 | drojf | i vote for exlibris aleph for everybody. our university library approves :/ | 
| 09:51 | slef | to see if I will fall foul of the same complaints. | 
| 09:51 | medmondson: I have 90mins to recharge them before me. | |
| 09:52 | rangi: may I steal your TMs? | |
| 09:52 | rangi | go for it :) | 
| 09:52 | slef | I have also put "Former koha.org webmaster" in my biog | 
| 09:54 | rangi | heh | 
| 09:55 | slef | I think that is accurate, isn't it? | 
| 09:56 | rangi | it's entirely accurate | 
| 09:59 | medmondson | some folk werea asking about visiting edinburgh hacklab. Tonight is coffee and code night from about 7.30. I have sent an email to the list, to alert them to our presence, but will be suprised if we get a reply. for those that want the info: http://edinburghhacklab.com/events/ |

| 10:19 | rangi | medmondson: http://edinburghliterarypubtour.co.uk/ <-- this looks cheesy but fun | 
| 10:25 | hmm Joubu is trying to win the wine signing off patches! | |
| 10:25 | slef | is that starting early? | 
| 10:26 | rangi | yep :) | 
| 10:29 | paul_p | rangi = FYI = usually, from wed to friday, clrh team -joubu, julian_m and matts work for the community | 
| 10:29 | medmondson | rangi: Some are quite fun apparently. | 
| 10:29 | rangi: it reminds me.. I was going to recommend... | |
| 10:29 | http://www.realmarykingsclose.com/ | |
| 10:30 | Joubu | rangi: The patch was already signed-off, I updated the status. I cheated :) | 
| 10:31 | slef | medmondson: I think S went there yesterday. Pretty good but tour was overbooked (22) and even fully-booked (20) is a bit more than some rooms hold (maybe 15). Still interesting though. | 
| 10:32 | aguri joined #koha | |
| 10:33 | rangi | i was thinking to maybe do a highlands tour tomorrow http://www.highlandexperience.[…]s.asp?txtTour=171 |

| 10:34 | asaurat joined #koha | |
| 10:34 | rangi | 41 pound, which is alright for me, but maybe too much for some? | 
| 10:35 | cait | I think would be ok for me, the nessi hunter tour is not included i think, but I would like to do it again | 
| 10:36 | mbalmer joined #koha | |

| 10:37 | maybe only works in my accent | |
| 10:37 | rangi | heh | 
| 10:38 | slef | that will be more on my talk I think, once I make my suggestion | 
| 10:39 | will you applaud or boo when I say "LibLime was right"? | |
| 10:39 | cait | it depends on how you explain that | 
| 10:39 | I think | |
| 10:40 | slef | anyone find marcelr's library on LibraryThing? | 
| 10:41 | paul_p | not really clear what is included in http://www.highlandexperience.[…]s.asp?txtTour=171, or I couldn't find where it's described... | 
| 10:41 | cait | paul_p: read the left column down | 
| 10:45 | paul_p | cait = OK, we take the bus. But will there be a guide ? which language ? audio-guide in french ? lunch included for the price ? where the bus start in EDI ? | 
| 10:45 | cait | hm i think we came by the bus stop this morning | 
| 10:46 | i haven't taken the tour before, I think they advertised tours in different languages, so there might be french | |
| 10:46 | medmondson | west highland line is truly wonderful. (go over the famous 'Harry Potter' viaduct) http://www.scotlandsforme.com/[…]raction.php?id=79 |

| 10:54 | can you try a search in french now? | |
| 10:54 | or any french speaker | |
| 10:56 | paul_p | rangi = much better, except the "Maintenant" ( in the Entre le: field) must be removed or you get no results | 
| 10:56 | drojf | rangi: the highlands tour sounds nice, but does it say somewhere how long it actually takes? | 
| 10:57 | Oak | thank you nengard ! | 
| 10:57 | paul_p | it's at the wrong place = in english it's "between ______ AND Now" while in french it's "between Maintenant and _______" | 
| 10:57 | drojf = on the right "start 8AM, back around 7PM" | |
| 10:57 | drojf | ah, i'm just blind, thanks | 
| 10:58 | we would be able to see nessy… | |
| 10:58 | rangi | 8am to 7.30pm drojf | 
| 10:58 | (there are a few different ones tho, shorter and longer) | |
| 10:58 | paul_p: ahh ill take that out | |
| 10:58 | cait | varying in prices too | 
| 10:58 | eythian | rangi: the literary pub tour started at 7.30 didn't it? | 
| 10:59 | rangi | i think so | 
| 10:59 | mbalmer | literary pub tour? | 
| 11:00 | eythian | I think it's a pub crawl with a pretence of culture. Exactly my sort of thing! | 
| 11:00 | matts | ^^ | 
| 11:00 | mbalmer | tonight? | 
| 11:00 | wahanui | tonight is probably 23rd :) | 
| 11:00 | eythian | Not sure. | 
| 11:01 | cait | forget nonight | 
| 11:01 | forget tonight | |
| 11:01 | wahanui | cait: I forgot tonight | 
| 11:01 | drojf | hm if tour starts at 8am i would not get any breakfast | 
| 11:01 | rangi | i have the brochure for the pub tour by me | 
| 11:01 | mbalmer | so pub stroll tomorrow night? | 
| 11:01 | cait | drojf: grab something on the way? ask for a lunchpack? ;) | 
| 11:01 | eythian | http://www.edinburghliterarypu[…]k/pub_details.php <-- every night | 
| 11:01 | medmondson | pubs on Friday night will be very busy | 
| 11:01 | mbalmer | I see | 
| 11:02 | drojf | cait: they can pack the cooked breakfast :D | 
| 11:02 | mtompset | Wow, that was a serioud read to catch up. | 
| 11:02 | serious... | |
| 11:02 | cait | i am sure they can... | 
| 11:02 | rangi | paul_p: is the default removed now? | 
| 11:03 | paul_p | rangi = yes, it work fine now ! | 
| 11:08 | eythian | > Did you know that Edinburgh has more pubs per square mile than any other city in Europe? | 
| 11:08 | excellent! | |
| 11:10 | drojf | <3 edinburgh | 
| 11:14 | clrh | rangi: today the layer provides ability to plug whatever you want - the purpose now is not really solr but adapting/refactoring zebra part - I hope I'll take time to explain during hackfest :) | 
| 11:14 | cait | clrh: :) | 
| 11:15 | rangi | w00t | 
| 11:15 | clrh++ | |
| 11:15 | mtompset | refactoring? | 
| 11:15 | wahanui | refactoring is not rewriting it is abstracting. | 
| 11:15 | cait | clrh++ :) | 
| 11:15 | clrh | stefano++ too happy to see his work | 
| 11:15 | rangi | clrh: that sounds really great | 
| 11:15 | yes | |

| 11:50 | wahanui | i guess mtompset is not. | 
| 11:50 | jcamins | wahanui? | 
| 11:50 | wahanui | yes, jcamins? | 
| 11:51 | jcamins | Huh. "Wahanui" used to have a response like "wahanui is little yet. He needs to learn more. :)" | 
| 11:51 | mtompset | How is it that you got such a colourful descriptor, jcamins? | 
| 11:51 | jcamins | mtompset: it used to be a lot more colorful. | 
| 11:52 | mtompset | jcamins? | 
| 11:52 | wahanui | jcamins is an outstanding cook, well-traveled and brilliant, trying to think of a solution, or the wizard that forges queries in the deep fires of zebra or an authorities expert | 
| 11:52 | * jcamins | looks for an example. | 
| 11:53 | mtompset | who would want to forge queries in the deep fires of zebra? | 
| 11:53 | pastebot | "jcamins" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "What wahanui used to know about me" (1 line) at http://paste.koha-community.org/435 | 
| 11:53 | jcamins | mtompset: I can't say I'd like to, but I don't really have much of a choice. | 
| 11:54 | ;) | |
| 11:54 | mtompset | okay, that makes sense. | 
| 11:54 | On a positive note... I got wiki access today! | |
| 11:55 | jcamins | I think cait did the "jcamins is an outstanding cook," then various people added the other bits, and I revised it to use commas instead of ". or" a few months ago. | 
| 11:55 | Yay! | |
| 11:56 | mtompset | I've already added a slew of discussion notes to the koha on ubuntu page. | 
| 11:56 | I figured since I've never edited a page, I'll let someone else do that. | |
| 11:56 | jcamins | No, you should go ahead and edit the pages. :) | 
| 11:56 | It's very easy. | |
| 11:57 | mtompset | I'm worried about busting ir. | 
| 11:57 | it | |
| 11:57 | jcamins | You won't. | 
| 11:57 | And, if you accidentally screw things up, the change can be reverted. | |
| 11:57 | medmondson | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Be_bold | 
| 11:57 | jcamins | Exactly. | 
| 11:59 | mtompset | I can't seem to get that link to work, medmondson. | 
| 12:00 | Is there a back up somewhere? | |
| 12:01 | jcamins | mtompset: I will summarize: "Be bold and edit those wiki pages!: | 
| 12:01 | *" | |
| 12:01 | medmondson | hmm I wonder what is wrong with that URL | 
| 12:01 | jcamins | It worked for me. | 
| 12:01 | mtompset | I get timeout errors. | 
| 12:02 | medmondson | well its a common wiki principle | 
| 12:02 | be bold, revert is easy | |
| 12:02 | the wikipedia URL is a bit too wikipedia specific anyhow | |

| 13:15 | jwagner | slef or cait, can you link my presentation? | 
| 13:15 | cait | do you have a link to the slides? | 
| 13:16 | jwagner | slef asked me to put it online last week, so it's at http://www.koha.org/library/re[…]DoWhenTheySay.pdf | 
| 13:17 | slef | I'm about to present. Paralysed by fear, as always before I do anything in public | 
| 13:17 | cait | you will do fine | 
| 13:17 | eat some chocolate :P | |
| 13:17 | rangi | you'll be fine | 
| 13:17 | cait | ok, that was mean | 
| 13:17 | dpavlin | slef: don't worry, you are among frineds here :-) | 
| 13:17 | slef | cait: you'll be forcing me chocolate after this! | 
| 13:18 | cait | slef: hm? | 
| 13:18 | eythian | /msg dpavlin you've got the mean songs memorised? | 
| 13:18 | cait | jwagner: it's done, please check it works | 
| 13:18 | slef: perhaps we should get and store all slides somewhere - itwould be nice to have all files in the same place somewhere | |
| 13:18 | jwagner | cait, looks fine, thanks | 
| 13:19 | eythian | cait: ideally you'd upload them to the wiki | 
| 13:19 | it's just not working for some reason | |
| 13:19 | (for me, anyway) | |
| 13:20 | cait | I think brooke reported that in the past but were not able to replicate | 
| 13:20 | jwagner | I noticed the other day that the schedule on the wiki wasn't the same as on k-c.org -- which one is the "final" version? | 
| 13:20 | cait | ah, there should be no schedule on the wiki now | 
| 13:20 | I removed it because both tables got out of sync with changes being made | |
| 13:21 | I am going to give uploading files another try | |
| 13:21 | dpavlin | eythian: I'm not sure I know what wean songs you are refering to? From yesteday? | 
| 13:21 | drojf | cait: seen http://fudgehouse.co.uk/ ? | 
| 13:21 | wahanui | I haven't seen 'http://fudgehouse.co.uk/', drojf |

| 13:22 | Ohhh. | |
| 13:22 | Yeah, that's a good shop. | |
| 13:22 | They used to have little samples out. :) | |
| 13:22 | slef | everyone ask lots | 
| 13:22 | dpavlin | eythian: I though that mumble, mumble, grrr, grrr sounds should be enough :-) | 
| 13:22 | slef | you have 35mins to fill | 
| 13:23 | store place good idea | |
| 13:23 | drojf | slef: you've been an excellent host/ presenter so far, don't worry, all will be fine | 
| 13:23 | slef | drojf: awww you're so kind | 
| 13:23 | cmon, 30mins more | |
| 13:23 | get me out of talking | |
| 13:24 | jwagner | slef, There Is No Escape |

| 13:24 | jwagner | ? | 
| 13:24 | slef | (joke...it is not wired in just now) | 
| 13:24 | drojf | eythian: your latex file would give less errors if there were the graphics too ;) | 
| 13:25 | slef | if ppl ask 30mins of questions, we run out of time for me |

| 13:25 | cait | ok | 
| 13:25 | I can upload pdf files to the wiki | |
| 13:25 | going to try eythian's presentation next | |
| 13:26 | marcelr | pdf works, ppt does not | 
| 13:26 | dpavlin | start singing, now! | 
| 13:26 | eythian | drojf: yeah, but there's really not much point in including the graphics, most of it is company logo stuff |

| 13:27 | drojf | eythian: yeah just saw that. company and koha logo | 
| 13:27 | for the bullets | |
| 13:27 | eythian | yeah | 
| 13:29 | libsysguy joined #koha | |
| 13:29 | * mtompset | cringes at the mention of LaTeX. | 
| 13:31 | * libsysguy | was reading the devel email about scoreboard and wonders how many kittens sekjal and the rest of the QA team have killed | 
| 13:31 | drojf | mtompset: why is that? | 
| 13:31 | cait | ok | 
| 13:31 | uploading files works - please don't check categories! | |
| 13:31 | jcamins | libsysguy: there's a saved search for Failed QA. | 
| 13:31 | cait | I think that might be the problem | 
| 13:32 | don't check categories when uploading files | |
| 13:34 | eythian | mtompset: are you some kind of heathen perhaps? | 
| 13:34 | * sekjal | is actually Dothraki for 'killer of kittens' | 
| 13:36 | libsysguy | touche sekjal | 
| 13:39 | marcelr | libsysguy: you really should hate cats before joining qa team ;) | 
| 13:40 | rangi | hehe | 
| 13:40 | jcamins | Pixel says you're all heathens, and now he's going to hide in a corner. | 
| 13:40 | mtompset | LaTeX is not user friendly. | 
| 13:41 | marcelr | heathens? | 
| 13:41 | mtompset | Powerful. | 
| 13:41 | Useful. | |
| 13:41 | drojf | mtompset: i'm a user, it's friendly to me | 
| 13:41 | jcamins | marcelr: yes, you hate cats. | 
| 13:41 | drojf | way more friendly than a word processor ;) | 
| 13:41 | mtompset | When did you first interact with it? | 
| 13:41 | jcamins | mtompset: *TeX* is user-unfriendly. LaTeX isn't too bad. | 
| 13:41 | * jcamins | doesn't do TeX. | 
| 13:42 | drojf | a few years ago | 
| 13:42 | mtompset | I had bad experiences from the 90's. :P | 
| 13:42 | drojf | i bet word processors were even worse then :P | 
| 13:42 | mtompset | I'm sure GUI front-ends have improved. | 
| 13:43 | Imagine having to deal with it in a text-only hand-code environment. | |
| 13:43 | Unless you know it well, it's ugly. | |
| 13:43 | Though, I'll still use it for generating PDF output. ;) | |
| 13:44 | Back to wiki edit's before I lose them again. | |
| 13:45 | jcamins | Only seven bugs left to report and assign to myself. | 
| 13:46 | mtompset | isn't that a conflict of interest? ;) | 
| 13:47 | jcamins | mtompset: nah, it's a conflict of interest if I try to claim that my testing is sufficient to conclude that the fixes resolve the bugs. | 
| 13:49 | clrh | rfc++ for a start for documenting feature and test cases (before push) cc nengard | 
| 13:50 | rangi | favourite slide so far | 
| 13:50 | eythian | mtompset: I wrote it in vim, also not user friendly. | 
| 13:50 | jcamins | We report bugs/enhancements for things we're working on so that people know what's going on. | 
| 13:50 | clrh: yes, I'll be posting the detailed RFC to the wiki. | |
| 13:50 | talljoy | these sci fi references are over my head rangi | 
| 13:50 | eythian | but both are very fast and efficient, which is what I cared about. | 
| 13:50 | jcamins | Ooh, sci fi references? :) | 
| 13:51 | rangi | thats boba fett, a bounty hunter :) | 
| 13:51 | talljoy | is that a dalek, starwars or startrek | 
| 13:51 | rangi | starwars | 
| 13:51 | jcamins | However, I use bug numbers for tracking. | 
| 13:51 | talljoy | lol...oh. i should have recognized from the boys lego sets. |

| 14:07 | schuster | I've had issues mainly with the indexer sucking up disk space... But I did a test search in Staff and it works, but when I do a test search in Pac I get no items found. any suggestions? | 
| 14:08 | jcamins | faq? | 
| 14:08 | wahanui | rumour has it faq is found at http://koha-community.org/documentation/faq/ | 
| 14:08 | jcamins | ^^ there is a question about that problem. :) | 
| 14:08 | I think it's opachiddenitems. | |
| 14:08 | cait | schuster: which index tool are you using? | 
| 14:09 | mib_0dks74 joined #koha | |
| 14:10 | schuster | zebra. | 
| 14:11 | eythian | or opacsuppresssomething | 
| 14:11 | mtompset | dalek is from Dr. Who, talljoy. | 
| 14:11 | schuster | When I look in the Koha_opac_error_log I see this - opac-search.pl: accept_language(x,y) called with no clientPreferences (x). at /home/koha/kohaclone//C4/Templates.pm line 331 | 
| 14:12 | mtompset | I have a bunch of those flooding my logs too. | 
| 14:12 | schuster | something about language? but I see that double // in front of the C4 which makes me concerned. | 
| 14:12 | jcamins | schuster: you may need to clear your cookies. | 
| 14:12 | schuster | mmm chocolate ones... Ok will try. | 
| 14:13 | mtompset | Though, it's for the staff client. | 
| 14:13 | schuster | Why would you have those errors in koha-opac-error_log from staff client? | 
| 14:13 | mtompset | no, the accept_language(x,y) mess. | 
| 14:14 | its in my koha-error_log | |
| 14:14 | I remember tracing it down. | |
| 14:14 | but I forget what it was. | |
| 14:14 | too mant late nights. | |
| 14:14 | wizzyrea | patch or it didn't happen ;) | 
| 14:14 | mtompset | ^mant^many^ | 
| 14:20 | jcamins | Hm. I think I may add a "C & P Authorities Improvements" meta-bug. | 
| 14:21 | schuster | So I turned on the language piece in I8L or whatever that tab is and now get this error - opac-search.pl: Use of uninitialized value $lang in string eq at /home/koha/kohaclone//C4/Templates.pm line 336. | 
| 14:21 | samuel joined #koha | |
| 14:21 | schuster | But where do I select the language? | 
| 14:21 | samuel | hi everybody | 
| 14:23 | mtompset | What version are you running, Schuster? | 
| 14:23 | wizzyrea | hi samuel | 
| 14:24 | the second question? | |
| 14:24 | wahanui | the second question is "What is the exact error message?" | 
| 14:24 | eythian joined #koha | |
| 14:24 | wizzyrea | the third question? | 
| 14:24 | wahanui | somebody said the third question was "What version of Koha are you using?" http://koha-community.org/faq/[…]ion-koha-running/ | 
| 14:24 | schuster | 3.06.05 | 
| 14:24 | mtompset | the first question? | 
| 14:24 | wahanui | "What are you trying to do?" "What is the goal?" or "What problem are you experiencing?" | 
| 14:24 | mtompset | That's three questions. :P | 
| 14:24 | eythian | they have "or" | 
| 14:25 | * wizzyrea | waves at eythian | 
| 14:25 | grins | |
| 14:25 | schuster | 3.06.04.000 - actually | 
| 14:25 | Even though I downloaded from the website 3.06.05??? | |
| 14:25 | talljoy1 joined #koha | |
| 14:26 | jcamins | schuster: 3.6.5 was up. | 
| 14:26 | Still is. | |
| 14:26 | Odd. | |
| 14:27 | * jcamins | will check what's in there. | 
| 14:27 | wizzyrea | perhaps bug 7874? | 
| 14:27 | huginn` | 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7874 minor, P5 - low, ---, colin.campbell, Pushed to Stable , Templates::get_language generates lots of not defined warnings | 
| 14:28 | jcamins | It's 3.6.5. | 
| 14:32 | wizzyrea | the patch for that is in 3.6.5, but schuster says he has 3.6.4 | 
| 14:32 | or the version is reporting 3.6.4 | |
| 14:33 | schuster | OK step back jcamins wins!!! Evidently in the upgrade it changed the default from Don't Hide to Hide! | 
| 14:33 | OpacSupression... | |
| 14:33 | jcamins | wizzyrea: no, I mean, the file labeled 3.6.5 is, in fact, 3.6.5. | 
| 14:33 | schuster | whew... | 
| 14:33 | wizzyrea | ! that doesn't seem right schuster. | 
| 14:34 | jcamins | So you might want to re-download 3.6.5, and upgrade to that right away. | 
| 14:34 | schuster | On May 25th I downloaded 3.6.5 from the website and what my about is saying I have 3.6.4 | 
| 14:34 | jcamins | schuster: okay, that's weird... | 
| 14:34 | wizzyrea | link wrong maybe? | 
| 14:34 | jcamins | Yeah, I think so. | 
| 14:35 | schuster | OK - well I'm in the middle of my migration to community and have had a few headaches along the way... So I will "redownload" 3.6.5 soon once I can show it is up and running! | 
| 14:35 | wizzyrea | hm looks ok | 
| 14:36 | i wonder if schuster downloaded it in that magic moment in between when the file was uploaded and the link was changed | |
| 14:36 | schuster | I downloaded the 3.06.05.tar.gz version. | 
| 14:36 | wizzyrea | i.e. coincidence of timing | 
| 14:36 | jcamins | wizzyrea: yeah, that would make sense. | 
| 14:36 | schuster | My luck of course... | 
| 14:36 | wizzyrea | do you still have the file? | 
| 14:36 | schuster | Ah let me look | 
| 14:39 | yes I do what do you want to know about it? | |
| 14:39 | wizzyrea | it says 3.06.05? | 
| 14:39 | .tar.gz? | |
| 14:40 | schuster | yep - koha-3.06.05.tar.gz | 
| 14:40 | wizzyrea | ok that's odd | 
| 14:42 | mtompset | Why is that odd? | 
| 14:43 | wizzyrea | because his install reports it's 3.6.4 | 
| 14:43 | mtompset | the unpacked directory and the installed directory aren't the same on a standard installation. | 
| 14:44 | wizzyrea | yes, thanks. I'm making some assumptions that the upgrade itself was completed correctly | 
| 14:44 | jcamins | mtompset: yeah, but if you installed from the 3.6.5 tgz, you should end up with the same version. | 
| 14:44 | wizzyrea | since he said he upgraded it | 
| 14:44 | it could be that the upgrade itself wasn't completed correctly, and that's why there is a discrepancy | |
| 14:45 | SJeffery joined #koha | |
| 14:46 | SJeffery | Can anyone confirm that the 008 date fields are NOT used for a general search, but is used when performing an advanced search by date? | 
| 14:46 | jcamins | SJeffery: that is correct. | 
| 14:47 | C4::Search-- | |
| 14:48 | rangi | jcamins: people are coming back in | 
| 14:48 | jcamins | Not long now. The recorded bit is about ten minutes, and then I'll call in for questions. | 
| 14:49 | rangi | so i think we will be starting in a few | 
| 14:49 | clrh | do you use the term "lis" for library and information science ? I was looking for a name for a twitter list for people related to ils libraries and job related | 
| 14:50 | rangi | yep, that seems to be the common one clrh | 
| 14:50 | clrh | great! | 
| 14:51 | SJeffery | Is there documentation on which MARC fields are searched by each search box/method? | 
| 14:51 | jcamins | SJeffery: there is an out of date table. | 
| 14:51 | Somewhere... | |
| 14:51 | SJeffery | Out of date? *prods nicole* | 
| 14:52 | jcamins | http://manual.koha-community.o[…]xes.html#id605897 | 
| 14:52 | See, what we really need is something that will automatically generate a listing. | |
| 14:52 | samuel joined #koha | |
| 14:52 | jcamins | That would be a prime example of something that the GRS-1 configuration files do not lend themselves to. | 
| 14:52 | DOM, on the other hand, will make that easy. | |
| 14:53 | mtompset | Actually, would the install/upgrade fail if there were missing dependencies? | 
| 14:53 | banana joined #koha | |
| 14:54 | schuster | I would swear it gave me the report that 3.6.5 was complete, but it is working and I need it "semi" stable before I do ANYTHING to it again... It has been a rough 3 days. | 
| 14:55 | mtompset | I'm curious as to the output of ./koha_perl_deps.pl -m | 
| 14:55 | jcamins | mtompset: nope. | 
| 14:55 | eythian | jcamins: you're almost on :) | 
| 14:56 | jcamins | Yay! | 
| 14:56 | mtompset | AS opposed to being off. ;) | 
| 14:57 | jcamins | I should warn you there are about two and a half seconds of silence at the beginning of the presentation. | 
| 14:57 | I couldn't tell if it was recording. | |
| 14:57 | pastebot | "samuel" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "ldap, problems of mapping" (25 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/436 | 
| 14:58 | jcamins | I also apologize if I talked too fast. | 
| 14:59 | eythian | jcamins: slef says thanks for that, it lets him move the video on the screen | 
| 14:59 | also that your slides will probably get changed at all the wrong moments :) | |
| 14:59 | jcamins | eythian: that's okay. | 
| 15:00 | nengard joined #koha | |
| 15:00 | mtompset | Well, I'm off. Sounds like I'll miss some fun. |

| 15:02 | cait | *applause* | 
| 15:02 | eythian | huh, so that's what jcamins looks like... | 
| 15:02 | cait | video is on | 
| 15:03 | * eythian | should pay attention to this | 
| 15:03 | eythian | given I'm always asking about it | 
| 15:03 | drojf | now that i know how to do it i get several presentations about it | 
| 15:03 | :P | |
| 15:04 | * chris_n | cheers jcamins | 
| 15:04 | SJeffery | Is there a live stream of this anywhere? | 
| 15:04 | * cait | cheers too | 
| 15:04 | drojf | SJeffery: don't think so | 
| 15:04 | jcamins | SJeffery: there is not. However, my presentation is easy to see. | 
| 15:04 | drojf | you will be able to download it later i guess | 
| 15:04 | cait | SJeffery: I think the recordings will be available after the conference | 
| 15:04 | jcamins | I'm e-mailing you the links. | 
| 15:04 | rangi | its going well | 
| 15:05 | jcamins | I kept it very short since I'm about the last presentation on the last day. I figure I can answer as many questions as people have, but I didn't want to push it. | 
| 15:06 | SJeffery: I just sent you the links to my presentation, which actually comes in two parts thanks to my impatience with video editing. | |
| 15:07 | I think the MPG should play fine with Windows Media Player. | |
| 15:09 | SJeffery | Works:) | 
| 15:09 | jcamins | Errr, it sounds like some of the middle slides are missing. | 
| 15:09 | Sorry about that. | |
| 15:09 | I think the missing ones were mostly charts of things to think about. | |
| 15:09 | I'll upload those a bit later. | |

| 15:24 | jcamins | talljoy1: I realized after getting through the first part that I wasn't actually sure if I'd managed to record it. |

| 15:38 | mbalmer | biblibre++ for the Drupal module! | 
| 15:38 | clrh | juste "moving" can be not suffisant | 
| 15:39 | suffisant = enougth(sorry) | |
| 15:39 | jcamins | clrh: sufficient is an English word too. :) | 
| 15:39 | clrh: I'm not *just* moving. | |
| 15:39 | clrh | :) | 
| 15:40 | jcamins | In order to move code to Koha::Search, it has to be cleaned up a lot, or it won't work in its new home. | 
| 15:40 | kyleh_ joined #koha | |
| 15:40 | clrh | jcamins: ++ | 
| 15:40 | clean clean ;) | |
| 15:41 | jcamins | I am not entirely rewriting C4::Search, but better to have somewhat icky (but not as icky as what we have now!) code in Koha:: and the ability to introduce solr, than wait until someone has the time to entirely rewrite the Zebra interface. | 
| 15:43 | clrh | ô icky new word for me :) | 
| 15:43 | wizzyrea | so when you need to explain the internet to people, you can use this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?f[…]ded&v=WwyJGzZmBe8 |

| 15:44 | kyleh_ joined #koha | |
| 15:44 | mgeist joined #koha | |
| 15:44 | clrh | but why cleaning it into Koha:: and not C4:: for the moment? | 
| 15:44 | eythian | http://www.amazon.com/Story-Ab[…]ack/dp/0140502416 <-- wizzyrea, also this book | 
| 15:44 | nengard left #koha | |
| 15:45 | wizzyrea | :P | 
| 15:45 | jcamins | clrh: because we want to separate the code. | 
| 15:45 | marcelr | kohacon12 closed | 
| 15:46 | rangi | now we have to figure out what we are doing tonight | 
| 15:46 | jcamins | clrh: we could create a C4::Search::Engine* but that would just make things even messier, and wouldn't reduce circular dependencies. | 
| 15:46 | wizzyrea | pubs! | 
| 15:46 | mbalmer | pubs | 
| 15:46 | more pubs | |
| 15:46 | wizzyrea | maybe some pubs. | 
| 15:47 | clrh | yes but if you write into Koha:: you/we will maybe have to rewrite it | 
| 15:48 | jcamins | clrh: if I write into C4, it'll still have to be rewritten. | 
| 15:48 | SJeffery | jcamins: Very nice presentation | 
| 15:48 | jcamins | clrh: my goal is to have things work, improve the quality of the code, and get solr into 3.12, if not 3.10. | 
| 15:48 | SJeffery: thanks. | |
| 15:48 | clrh: I have funding to do some work now. I think it's better to do it right from the start. | |
| 15:49 | If we use C4::Search::Engine, that means we'll have to use C4::Search. | |
| 15:49 | Which means that we will have to load the entire C4:: menagerie every time we want to do a search. | |
| 15:51 | I'd rather clean up some code as part of this project, but if you're planning on doing all the refactoring, I can leave it as it is in C4. ;) | |

| 16:57 | SJeffery | Did anyone ever get around to arrange a Koha users gathering at ALA? | 
| 17:03 | slef | SJeffery: is ALA now? | 
| 17:04 | SJeffery | It starts about the 21st | 
| 17:07 | rangi | Thanks slef | 
| 17:09 | drojf1 joined #koha | |

| 17:12 | rangi: lucky you stuck it to something with your number on ;) | |
| 17:12 | rangi | Yeah! | 
| 17:12 | slef | SJeffery: ah then I've not seen nothing yet | 
| 17:22 | mle | back to teviot soon. anupne there? | 
| 17:23 | slef where are you at? ia anyone about | |

| 17:28 | bag joined #koha | |
| 17:32 | SJeffery | Maybe we could get one of the vendors to organize it? *prods bywater* | 
| 17:50 | slef | mle: soory no... doctors may contain nuts | 
| 17:52 | SJeffery: I think we distracted bywater with kohacon12. Try asking NateC when he says hi or use @later tell NateC whatever | |
| 17:53 | SJeffery: why don't the users organise users meetups? | |
| 17:53 | * slef | is ignorant co-op worker | 
| 17:54 | SJeffery | For the usual reason: lack of time/ability/desire to organize it :) | 
| 17:54 | slef | sooo if there is not enough desire, why would a vendor...? | 
| 17:54 | wizzyrea | if you have no desire to organize it why would anyone attend? | 
| 17:55 | SJeffery | On the part of the individual, not the collective group...someone always has to spend the time | 
| 17:55 | slef | so club together, hire a vendor to organise it? | 
| 17:56 | else you all just pay more for them to gamble | |
| 17:56 | and get less say about the meeting | |
| 17:56 | * wizzyrea | is not going to ALA this year | 
| 17:57 | SJeffery | I can put something together in the next few days...probably something along the lines of "get together this or that room/location and chat about Koha" | 
| 17:57 | slef | but I don't know... all these library confs seem like they overcharge vendors who then just overcharge libraries... | 
| 17:58 | SJeffery | so true | 
| 17:58 | * wizzyrea | would probably find a restaurant and enjoy talking about koha with food and booze. | 
| 17:58 | slef | ah so is there no charge from ALA for the meetup? | 
| 17:58 | mle | anyone still in town? | 
| 17:58 | SJeffery | IIRC ala is something like $10k/booth | 
| 17:58 | slef | mle: probably | 
| 17:58 | wizzyrea | slef: not if you do the meetup in the hallway track :P | 
| 17:58 | SJeffery | Right, I was thinking something informal to just allow people to get together and hang out | 
| 17:58 | * mle | wonders where | 
| 17:58 | wahanui | wonders is it is too early on Sunday for Koha db questions? lol | 
| 17:59 | slef | I have rangi's number but I'm sure he is doing a beer tour starting at the beehive (?) 1930 and they maxed out the number of free places | 
| 17:59 | mle | slef ty for taking the eusa laptop | 
| 18:00 | * mle | goes home | 
| 18:00 | slef | mle: tried the doctors? | 
| 18:01 | I think the hard part is in town AND online | |
| 18:01 | wahanui: it is far too early on Sunday | |
| 18:01 | wahanui | ...but it is confusing for someone to be working on a bug and the assignee field is either wrong or blank... | 
| 18:01 | wizzyrea | forget it | 
| 18:01 | wahanui | wizzyrea: I forgot it | 
| 18:01 | slef | wahanui: I don't care! | 
| 18:01 | wahanui | slef: sorry... | 
| 18:02 | slef | wizzyrea: you brain surgeon you | 
| 18:02 | bag | yup ALA charges if you want a meeting room | 
| 18:02 | I won't be attending ALA.. | |
| 18:02 | The best way is to have a meetup at a pub ;) | |
| 18:03 | slef | mle: soooo... I suggested the koha vendors needed to merge or form a cartel... and they laughed at me :/ | 
| 18:04 | bag | There is some money left over from Kudos conference - That vtl was thinking about using to have a little get together (but I don't know the status of that) | 
| 18:04 | schuster may have a better idea on that too | |
| 18:04 | slef | bag: and then you have to charge libraries more and then libraries have to cut costs and close branches and fire librarians... and who is ALA meant to be helping exactly? | 
| 18:04 | mle | just laughed or did you manage to ellicita reason? | 
| 18:04 | bag | I agree slef | 
| 18:05 | seems to be helping themselves (ALA that is) | |
| 18:05 | slef | mle: just laughed at that bit... but we got reactions later | 
| 18:07 | wajasu joined #koha | |
| 18:12 | slef | bag: librarians, please take control of your association? | 
| 18:12 | bag | PLEASE | 
| 18:13 | slef | it's very tempting to say that loudly... but also damaging to one's own business :( | 
| 18:13 | mle | slef it needs to be said/suggested in a low threatening manner | 
| 18:14 | slef | mle: yeah I'm as subtle as a molotov | 
| 18:14 | bag | I don't totally agree… we're not like other vendors - librarians are the star… ALA was great to attend when I worked the circ desk, etc… | 
| 18:15 | but now you've summed it up well… more librarian control ;) | |
| 18:15 | mle | bag: ok how to get there? | 
| 18:15 | slef | I guess there are pro managers at ALA | 
| 18:17 | bag | ALA has pro managers (field officers I think they are called)…. Most of the round tables and actual talks/programs are mostly librarian run.. | 
| 18:17 | BUT ALA does have a bottomline number they need to keep up ;) | |
| 18:17 | wizzyrea | I'm sure running the conference itself isn't cheap. | 
| 18:18 | slef | wizzyrea: who knows? Do ALA members see the conference budget afterwards? | 
| 18:18 | or any summary of it, more likely | |
| 18:18 | you don't need to know that someone paid £10 for a last-minute box of paperclips because they were lost in transit | |
| 18:19 | wizzyrea | don't get me wrong I'm not defending it | 
| 18:19 | mle | i reckon we could do a green version in a big tent and make it fun, green and cheap. | 
| 18:19 | slef | you do need to know how much the conference is taking out of libraries | 
| 18:19 | mle: kohacon 2022? | |
| 18:19 | mle | no silly hotel costs | 
| 18:20 | slef | mle: silly heater costs? Have you seen the weather outside? | 
| 18:21 | * slef | waits for the gag about slef and hot air... | 
| 18:21 | mle | http://www.greenandaway.org/pa[…]fm?pageid=ga-home | 
| 18:21 | * slef | is happily disappointed | 
| 18:21 | jwagner | slef, wait for it.... | 
| 18:21 | slef | so who runs ALA? Librarians or officers? | 
| 18:22 | mle | i met investment banker who was raving about a connference he went to at green and awY. he had never slept i a tent before | 
| 18:23 | slef | yeah not sure I have since I was 7... I should not be so negative | 
| 18:23 | mle | quote they even had shpwers in a tent. | 
| 18:24 | anyhow... bbl | |

| 18:24 | wizzyrea | haha | 
| 18:24 | The aim of the Association, in that resolution, was "to enable librarians to do their present work more easily and at less expense." | |
| 18:24 | ohh kayyy | |
| 18:24 | slef | is that glamping | 
| 18:24 | wizzyrea: yeah and in reality? ;) | |

| 18:25 | slef | wizzyrea: I can point to co-ops that say one thing and maybe do another |

| 20:02 | wajasu | when doing a git dev install, for v3.08.01 i get DateTime::TimeZone 1.26 module required, and I have 1.20. What is the best what to get the 1.26 version? cpan? or deb pkg from? | 
| 20:08 | i did a git -b my381 v3.08.01 to hopefully be alligned with debian squeeze. i already have the koha-common pkg installed. | |
| 20:10 | libsysguy | how did you install it the first time wajasu? | 
| 20:15 | wajasu | i build a virgin debian vm. i installed apt-get install koha-common and editing and things worked. now i did a git clone, and want to do perl Makefile.PL | 
| 20:15 | makefile.PL reports that I need 1.26. I used the debian netinst ISO. | |
| 20:18 | should i had the debian wheezy repo and do apt-cache libdatetime-perl then apt-get install libdatetime-perl=1.26 (or 1.46)? | |
| 20:18 | or should i add the squeeze-dev repo? | |
| 20:19 | squuze-dev is technically pre wheezy i think. | |
| 20:19 | wizzyrea | you can't apt-get install libdatetime-timezone-perl | 
| 20:20 | oh nm you said it's got a version mismatch | |
| 20:21 | wajasu | yeah | 
| 20:25 | i just wonder what repo has version 1.26 and why my git -b my381 v3.08.01 working branch requires it to build. | |
| 20:26 | dpavlin | I'm running on squeeze using DateTime::TimeZone 1.20 | 
| 20:26 | wizzyrea | yea, same | 
| 20:26 | typo maybe? | |
| 20:26 | dpavlin | http://cpansearch.perl.org/src[…]Zone-1.46/Changes doesn't list anything which I should be warried about between 1.20 and 1.26 ;-) |

| 20:34 | dpavlin | Anyhow, I would probably decreate version to 1.20 to make squeeze happy (see git show c82d114f) |

| 20:38 | SJeffery joined #koha | |
| 20:38 | wizzyrea | see, there's a version mismatch here too, but everything still works |

| 20:39 | wahanui | wizzyrea: I forgot version | 
| 20:39 | schuster | I have a question about zebraindexing... I've been doing some work with it now for 3 days and realized today that it was spinning a bunch of lines as it "sort/merges" | 
| 20:39 | pastebot | "schuster" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "Is this indicitive of a memory type leak?" (17 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/437 | 
| 20:41 | schuster | I think last night when it died I thought it was disc space, but I was only at 80% - today in watching this I had a TON of these lines... | 
| 20:41 | I'm on Version 3.06.04 ... | |
| 20:51 | dpavlin | schuster: do you have anything useful in /var/log/koha/*/zebra-error.log ? | 
| 21:03 | schuster | let me check | 
| 21:04 | nothing but "stopping" messages which would be normal. | |
| 21:05 | dpavlin | strange. kill all processes and hope that you won't run out of disk space again. zebra does need quite a bit of space to do full reindex... | 
| 21:06 | and once it dies it can produce a lot of hanging processes since we run incremental update via cron. | |
| 21:06 | schuster | the koha-zebradaemon-output.log has 109661 lines of warn ir_session (exception) | 
| 21:07 | I thought originally it was disk, but then today I saw all of these "Zebra" fatal messages when I did ps -ef pages among pages as noted in the paste... | |
| 21:08 | Luckily my index of 277,000 bibs actually completed today so we can move forward with community otherwise my tail was on the line and my boss was ready to.... | |
| 21:09 | I didn't have problems with this during my testing on 3.06.00.14... 3.06.05 has been my nemisis so far but we LOVE the features. | |
| 21:11 | wizzyrea | schuster did you turn off the zebraqueue cron when you did your indexing? | 
| 21:11 | maybe the extras are your backed up zebraqueue cronjobs | |

| 21:44 | wajasu | my bad i symbolicly linked the wrong file. koha-conf.xml instead of koha-httpd.conf | 
| 21:45 | tab completion was not my friend that time | |
| 21:48 | slef | ah so? | 
| 21:48 | wahanui | rumour has it ah so is there no charge from ALA for the meetup | 
| 21:56 | wajasu | ok. my git env is setup using /root/koha-dev and /root/kohaclone but i get forbidden! You don't have permission to access / on this server | 
| 21:57 | slef | wajasu: check your apache configs, particularly <Directory ...> sections. You may find it easier to try again in /home somewhere. | 
| 21:57 | wajasu | ok | 
| 21:57 | slef | many webserver setups are cautious about serving from /root or /etc or /usr because they often contain sensitive files | 
| 21:58 | you can reconfigure it, but maybe it is a bad idea... | |
| 21:59 | wajasu | just as quick to start again. should i be running as a " koha" user account? or such? thats what might be missing from the INSTALL instructions. | 
| 22:00 | slef | well some user not used for another purpose, I think | 
| 22:01 | you may be right that INSTALL assumes people create a new login for a new web app... not strictly necessary but maybe a good idea | |
| 22:03 | wajasu | i always used to get in trouble with perms and zebra. we will see this time around. | 
| 22:04 | slef | oh that is easily done... not too hard to fix with some chown commands... or make much worse | 
| 22:05 | is there a reason you are not installing the koha-common*deb packages? | |
| 22:06 | wajasu | i did successfully with a noninteractive shell script that builds a kvm image. no i am adding git dev support for patch support. | 
| 22:07 | s/no/now/ | |
| 22:07 | slef | oh right | 
| 22:08 | wajasu | i'm trying to align with the apache-shared stuff. (i.e. reuse the mysql/apache stuff. | 
| 22:15 | atmanning | can anyone point me to a faq or instructions about why I see zero items added when I import MARC records? Here's my output: Number of records added973 Number of records updated0 Number of records ignored0 Number of items added0 Number of items ignored because of duplicate barcode0 | 
| 22:15 | this is a fresh install on Debian squeeze, Koha v 3.8 (koha-commons via apt-get) | |
| 22:16 | wajasu | have you run the zebra indexer? | 
| 22:16 | atmanning | I thought the import was supposed to add the items... does this mean my imported marc records are showing zero items? | 
| 22:17 | wajasu | or if its in cron, wait until it runs? | 
| 22:17 | atmanning | where is the indexer found? | 
| 22:18 | nothing found under /var/spool/cron/crontab | |
| 22:18 | wajasu | there is a section in INSTALL.debian than mentions how to set it up. | 
| 22:19 | atmanning | i followed this guide: http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]on_Debian_Squeeze where do I find those install instructions? | 
| 22:20 | wajasu | did you install koha-common or koha? | 
| 22:20 | atmanning | koha-common per the wiki instructions | 
| 22:20 | slef | blurgh, I must sleep soon, but where did the MARC records come from and do they have 952 tags? | 
| 22:22 | atmanning | pulled them out of a working Winnebago library system. I don't have a clue about the tags. I saw some things about a MARC editor that I suppose I could read through - I'd be happy with a mysql query to update an item count somewhere... | 
| 22:22 | slef | yeah you probably need to make the Koha holdings tags | 
| 22:22 | atmanning | did a MARC export of 900 records | 
| 22:23 | slef | there is a sort-of standard for holdings info in tag 852 but I think it is deprecated and koha uses tag 952 anyway | 
| 22:23 | let me get you the layout of tag 952... then I must sleep | |
| 22:23 | @marc 952 | |
| 22:23 | wahanui | The 952 field is used by Koha to store item data in MARC21 and is described at http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]_fields_%289xx%29 | 
| 22:23 | huginn` | slef: unknown tag 952 | 
| 22:24 | atmanning | I'd like to try that zebra index thing... looking for it in /usr/share/koha/bin/?? | 
| 22:24 | wajasu | i wrote a program way back, that added one item per in the 952 prior to import, as well as set other things. | 
| 22:25 | slef | and I am sorry but it is not as simple as a mysql query... you need items added through the Koha API somehow... and updating the MARC before import is probably the simplest | 
| 22:25 | (I think adding an item updates 2 or maybe more tables, plus gets sent to the zebra indexing server) | |
| 22:26 | atmanning | I was afraid of that... I think I found the index thing under migration tools --- that seems like an illogical place if it supposed to run all the time | 
| 22:26 | slef | there is an inglorious historical reason for it... but I think it is in the INSTALL instructions | 
| 22:27 | atmanning | I still haven't found those instructions.... grrr... | 
| 22:27 | slef | errr | 
| 22:27 | did you install from the debian package or the tar.gz? | |
| 22:27 | mtj | atmanning: ./INSTALL.debian | 
| 22:28 | atmanning: cron files are in /etc/cron.d | |
| 22:29 | atmanning | debian package via apt-get koha-commons ... looking for those crons... | 
| 22:29 | mtj | cat /etc/cron.d/koha-common | 
| 22:30 | slef | if it is the debian package, it will (should) do the INSTALL steps for you | 
| 22:30 | mtj | $ dpkg -L koha-common | grep cron.d | 
| 22:31 | atmanning | those crons are there.... I'll check for logs next - thanks for the help... gotta go eat before I starve to death | 
| 22:32 | mtj | $ koha-rebuild-zebra your-koha | 
| 22:35 | atmanning | what's the best way to confirm whether items have been added to my catalog? | 
| 22:35 | slef | is the problem lack of items or lack of all search resutls? | 
| 22:35 | look up something with an item available in the catalogue? | |
| 22:37 | atmanning | grr.. did a report on catalog statistics - zero items.... I think I'll go back to the MARC records and check that 952 field | 
| 22:37 | lack of items and lack of search results too... the koha-rebuild-zebra script didn't complain | |
| 22:40 | * slef | falls asleep...bbl | 
| 22:43 | mtj | atmanning: theres 2 basic parts to your problem... | 
| 22:43 | 1) is your zebrasrv process running? | |
| 22:43 | 2) did your zebraidx work successfully? | |
| 22:46 | well, and a 3rd part too... | |
| 22:46 | 3) did your marc records import successfully | |
| 22:46 | . | |
| 22:47 | atmanning | yes, yes, and yes but Marc results (above) show all processed but no items added - I manually added items but I would rather set the item count to 1 on all records for the import | 
| 22:48 | mtj | ... if your marc records didnt import ok, then the searching or indexing of those non-existent records wont work, either :) | 
| 22:48 | atmanning | It looks like I have to find a way to edit the MARC redords and put a 1 in the 952 tag somehow... | 
| 22:49 | mtj | your winnebago marc records dont yet contain the needed $952 item-level fields, for koha | 
| 22:50 | yes, you need to create correct $952 info for your records *before* import into Koha | |
| 22:51 | atmanning | that sounds right ... I was hoping the import would set the item count to 1 .. | 
| 22:51 | now to figure out how to batch modify my marc export file... any pointers? | |
| 22:52 | mtj | nope, Koha will not auto-magically create items for your itemless marc records | 
| 22:52 | atmanning | looks like I'll have to figure out how to get the marc edit to do a search and insert | 
| 22:54 | mtj | i use perl for that task , some people use a win32 app called marc-edit | 
| 22:55 | jcamins_away | atmanning: koha-rebuild-zebra will only complain if the records are corrupted, and it takes talent to import corrupt records. | 
| 22:55 | wajasu | i wrote a program in java to do this for me. i also had isbn records in my legacy library db, and queried a list of z3950 servers to get more biblio info. i'm going to have to contrib that one day. | 
| 22:56 | it took two days to query servers for just 1500 records, since the servers seemed throttled ;) | |
| 22:56 | i mean 15000 records. | |
| 22:57 | what about bulkmarcimport.pl | |
| 22:57 | mtj | youknow... a really nice project would be marc2koha.pl script - that converted many other ILS marc records to koha's $952 format | 
| 22:59 | $ marc2koha.pl --source-format=winnebago --input=winny.mrc --output=koha.mrc | |
| 22:59 | $ marc2koha.pl --source-format=dynix --input=winny.mrc --output=koha.mrc | |
| 22:59 | etc... | |
| 23:00 | jcamins_away | druthb's migration toolbox? | 
| 23:01 | druthb's migration toolbox is amazing | |
| 23:01 | druthb's migration toolbox is also https://www.gitorious.org/koha-toolbox/ | |
| 23:01 | wahanui | okay, jcamins_away. | 
| 23:01 | jcamins_away | druthb's migration toolbox? | 
| 23:01 | wahanui | druthb's migration toolbox is, like, amazing or https://www.gitorious.org/koha-toolbox/ | 
| 23:02 | wajasu | yeah. i coded it in java 3 years ago. it read all the records into a hsql database, and allowed sql queries and matched to z3950 servers, and other smarts like utf8 normalization. | 
| 23:03 | good to know there is another solution | |
| 23:05 | mtj | jcamins_away: nice! | 
| 23:05 | mtompset joined #koha | |
| 23:06 | mtompset | Hello, #koha. :) | 
| 23:09 | mtj | catalyst's csv2marc.pl would be a great start, then add some feature to create a new mapping via a yaml file? | 
| 23:10 | jcamins_away | mtj: I prefer druthb's scripts... they're a lot more flexible. | 
| 23:10 | mtj | $ marc2koha.pl --mapping-file=dynix.yaml --input=dynix.mrc --output=koha.mrc | 
| 23:12 | mtompset | What's being discussed? | 
| 23:20 | mtj | jcamins_away: more flexible than the csv2marc.pl script...? | 
| 23:21 | jcamins_away | mtj: that's what I find, yeah. | 
| 23:22 | mtj | see - a general koha2marc.pl script would help newcomers to koha solve a big problem.... | 
| 23:22 | jcamins_away | mtj: agreed. | 
| 23:22 | mtj | (as atmanning has just demonstrated to us) | 
| 23:22 | jcamins_away | mtj: I was thinking maybe we should be able to import using the CSV profiles feature. | 
| 23:23 | mtj | hmm, what is that? | 
| 23:23 | wahanui | well, that is maybe broken | 
| 23:23 | mtompset | wahanui forget that | 
| 23:23 | wahanui | mtompset: I forgot that | 
| 23:23 | jcamins_away | CSV profiles? Look in the administration section. | 
| 23:29 | LBA joined #koha | |
| 23:31 | mtj | ah, gotcha :) | 
| 23:33 | atmanning: can you paste a winnebago marc record please? -> http://paste.koha-community.org/ | |
