03:17 mal_u Hi. I need help.
03:17 wizzyrea heya
03:18 the first question?
03:18 wahanui "What are you trying to do?" or "What is the goal?"
03:18 mal_u How can I set more than 3 Notices?
03:18 wizzyrea For overdues? You cannot.
03:19 (I'm sorry to say)
03:19 mal_u which means I can't make use of all the notices? hold, overdue, etc. Then what's the point?
03:19 wizzyrea sure you can
03:20 those are separate from overdues
03:20 what are you trying to do exactly?
03:20 the second question?
03:20 wahanui somebody said the second question was "What is the exact error message?"
03:20 wizzyrea (if you have one)
03:21 mal_u I want to set email notices for hold, advanced notice, overdue and 2nd overdue.
03:21 wizzyrea ok, hold notices are automatic, you don't have to do anything for those
03:21 (as long as the patron has that notice selected in their settings)
03:21 Advanced notices, same
03:22 overdue, you set that up in the tools -> overdue notice/status triggers
03:22 the notices can be edited by going to tools -> Notices & Slips
03:22 mal_u How about the delay setting for advanced? I would like an email sent 2 days before overdue. Do I put -2?
03:23 wizzyrea no, just 2
03:23 mal_u O ok. I'll try it . Thanks.
03:23 wizzyrea sure good luck
03:23 Irma joined #koha
03:23 wizzyrea hi irma
03:29 Irma hi wizzyrea :-) How are the preparations for your first NZ XMas going?
03:29 wizzyrea well I think :) how are you?
03:30 Irma well thanks and pleased I can focus on last work tasks this week ... Family obligations have been delegated ...
03:31 wizzyrea :D
03:31 Irma Adding OneClickDigital to our Koha demo site is the current task
03:31 wizzyrea oo
03:31 that's a good one
03:32 Irma and preparing documentation for one of our hosted libraries re promoting OCD
03:32 * wizzyrea sees OCD and thinks of something completely different.
03:33 Irma their members are often located very far from the physical library so this digital audiobook collection should become very popular
03:33 wizzyrea *nod* that's always handy
03:38 Irma and could become obsessive ...;-)
03:39 wizzyrea hee
03:40 Irma ciao wizzyrea ...
03:40 C U
03:41 mal_u Hi wizzyrea....another question.
03:41 wizzyrea later irma :)
03:41 mal_u What's the difference between Advance and Item Due notice?
03:41 wizzyrea advance notices come out before the item is due
03:41 due notices come out on the day the item is due
03:43 mal_u and the ones with Digest means a compilation of titles?
03:44 wizzyrea correct
03:45 eythian wahanui: the Bourne Legacy is the Korn Shell
03:45 wahanui OK, eythian.
03:45 mal_u What's the reason they have the Hold Available notice if it's already automatic?
03:48 wizzyrea that just indicates whether a patron receives that notice
03:48 so a patron can opt out if they want to
03:50 what version are you running? perhaps the manual could be of some help for you
04:00 mal_u Ver 3.08.01.000. Well the document I'm reading doesn't say much. bummer.

06:56 He shot down the old folks' home receptionist
06:56 just like that
06:57 she was like "Hey good looking!" and he was all like "You need your eyes checked again."

11:28 I can try
11:31 WaqarAzeem joined #koha
11:33 WaqarAzeem Hello! In my Koha i am facing the 'search' related problem ... searching in differnt language is not returning the results as expected.
11:34 kf you have to activate icu
11:34 if you are using koha 3.8 or 3.10 it's an option during installation
11:35 your problem is wth non-latin languages?
11:36 WaqarAzeem thank you let me try it.
11:36 gerundio mib_3iep5q, soy Português, posso intentar hablar un poquito Espanol
11:36 WaqarAzeem yes with non-latin languages
11:36 gerundio mib_3iep5q, cuál es tu problema con la configuración de Koha?
11:47 mib_3iep5q Quiero sable si es Posible, ponerlo en la web de Internet utilizando algun hospedaje comercial
11:49 WaqarAzeem Is there any instruction which can help me to enable ICU after installing Koha? I found couple of links. here they are...  not sure which one I should try.
11:49 1 - http://www.scribd.com/doc/4519[…]-Support-in-Zebra
11:49 2 - http://kohageek.pbworks.com/w/[…]guage%20searching
11:50 gerundio guys, is there any article on setting up Koha is some commercial hosting provider?
11:53 I tried following the Koha support companies in the community site but got an error: http://koha-community.org/support/paid-support/
11:53 you should look into it, since it was my 1st result on Google for "koha hosting"
11:54 kf gerundio: not sure what you are looking for?
11:55 Waqar: I am not quite sure about the changes to the koha conf xml file :(
11:55 gerundio some info on some hosting providers for mib_3iep5q to setup Koha
11:55 he's working for a library in Salamanca, Spain
11:55 kf WaqarAzeem: maybe someone else could give you info on thi s- the tutorials don't look wrong, but I think they predate the switch option in the installer
11:55 gerundio and he's having a hard time setting up Koha on it's own
11:56 kf i know there are different companies in spain
11:56 I remember meeting people from xercode once, but better check the website later for a complete list
11:57 gerundio I'll let him know about that
11:57 WaqarAzeem Ok! i will give it a try after making a backup VM
11:57 gerundio thanks kf
11:57 kf @later tell wizzyrea - could you take a look at the koha supoort provider database? it seems to be broken :( http://koha-community.org/support/paid-support/
11:57 huginn kf: The operation succeeded.
11:57 Irma Confirming error message reported by gerundio ... Also http://koha-community.org/ : Error establishing a database connection
11:57 kf WaqarAzeem: maybe you could run the makeinstall again and choose icu, later compare the files between your production installation and the new generated file, move the parts about icu over

13:03 Ketan Hi
13:03 We installed koha 3.10 just now.. while adding a record we see a perl error
13:04 Can't call method "fields" on an undefined value at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Biblio.pm line 2482.
13:04 Now rebuilding koha
13:04 I am not sure that is the solution though.
13:05 jcamins Do you have Zebra enabled?
13:05 If by "rebuilding Koha" you mean "reinstalling," probably not.
13:05 However, it's always worth a try.
13:05 Ketan perl Makefile.pl, make ...etc
13:05 jcamins Right.
13:05 mtompset What OS are you using?
13:05 Ketan ubuntu 12.10
13:06 Have installed on the same OS before .
13:06 That runs ok.
13:06 mtompset Why are you building Koha under Ubuntu, when you could use packages?
13:06 Ketan packages?
13:06 wahanui somebody said packages was at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian
13:06 Ketan Let me check
13:06 mtompset Ubuntu?
13:06 wahanui hmmm... Ubuntu is a debian-based OS and Koha has shiny new ubuntu intructions.
13:07 mtompset http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]ubuntu_-_packages
13:07 It's based on the Debian instructions.
13:08 There was a tweak or two that was talked about in the mailing list that hasn't made it into the instructions.
13:08 But generally, there's no need to build Koha on debian based systems. :)
13:08 Ketan ok.
13:08 Thanks.
13:09 I did not know this.
13:09 We work more on CentOS
13:09 :-)
13:09 mtompset That would require a build. :)
13:09 tcohen joined #koha
13:09 Ketan Will try the instructions on the webpage you gave.
13:09 Thank you.
13:10 mtompset You're welcome.
13:10 Greetings, tcohen.
13:10 I'm able to finally install a 64-bit OS in VirtualBox. :)
13:11 tcohen :-D
13:11 will you test my patch?
13:11 mtompset My computer isn't fully set up for that yet.
13:11 I spent a couple days running all the windows updates.
13:12 I just got Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64-bit installed.
13:13 Now to drivc the son to daycare. :)
13:15 tcohen good luck mtompset

13:54 paste?
13:54 wahanui i heard paste was found at http://paste.koha-community.org
13:55 pastebot "mtompset" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "Sucky!" (3 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/318
13:56 mtompset Is this bad internet/dns or really a problem?
13:56 jcamins No idea.
13:56 I can tell you that the apt line on the Debian page is correct.
13:57 I just used it.
13:57 mtompset Okay, I'll assume bad internet... my ISP's DNS servers have been pretty lousy lately.
14:00 edveal joined #koha
14:01 mtompset Nope... I think it may be a data problem.
14:02 I changed the server to oldstable.
14:02 worked fine.
14:06 And there's the problem... typos strike again.

14:18 chris_n syntax... one mistake and the world comes to a screeching halt
14:20 mtompset So true, chris_n. So true. Just added work around into Ubuntu instructions.
14:20 jcamins mtompset: what is the workaround for?
14:20 Actually, I really don't want to know, do I?
14:21 mtompset The chi-perl, digest-jhash stuff mentioned in the mailing list.
14:21 * jcamins withdraws the question.
14:21 chris_n hehe
14:21 mtompset You'll notice I did not put it in a nice box, so people should generally miss it. :)
14:40 Except for the work around. It's nice the instructions worked fabulously for me. :)
14:42 And this new machine is a virtualizing dream!
14:42 Stuff that took hours install wise is just minutes. :)
14:45 maximep joined #koha
14:47 mtompset Greetings, maximep.
14:48 BTW, should we be recommending 3.8.x or 3.10.x?
14:50 jcamins I recommend 3.8.x.
14:50 Actually, that's not true.
14:50 I recommend 3.6.x.
14:50 mtompset There's no repo for 3.6.x :P
14:50 jcamins True.
14:50 mtompset (koha-community repo)
14:51 I was just going over the Ubuntu koha installation instructions again and noticing they said 'oldstable'.
14:52 Probably because no one had figured out the 3.10.x workaround at the time, or I was sticking with 3.6.x as long as possible. ;)
14:52 jcamins Probably because I recommended 3.6.x.
14:52 And now I recommend 3.8.x.
14:53 If you can't be bothered to build your own packages for 3.6.x, anyway.
14:53 mtompset Oh... no, I think I went with oldstable, because if the Debian release changes from squeeze, I didn't want to have to edit the instructions. ;)
14:54 jcamins Ooh, good point.
14:54 * jcamins would leave it at oldstable.
14:55 mtompset Now I should try doing a git install.
14:55 jcamins Sure, why not?
14:56 mtompset tcohen's 64-bit issues can then be confirmed or not when I do, since I'll have a 64-bit install that I'm testing on. :)

15:25 oleonard It wasn't broken for me when I checked a couple of hours ago

15:27 so um, it does really not work now, right?

15:52 mtompset What causes the ping timeout?
15:53 jcamins mtompset: a route going out, the computer being unplugged, changing WAPs, the chat program being closed rather than shut down...
15:53 liw mtompset, such as the one tchoen just had? the server and the client failing to communicate within some time limit, which can happen for lots of different reasons (see jcamins)
15:55 mtompset Okay, about to test the git install instructions for Ubuntu in a nice 64-bit environment. :)
15:55 Hmm.... anyone know how to turn off the transparency in the title bars under windows 7?
15:56 jcamins mtompset: yes. http://www.debian.org/distrib/
15:56 * mtompset laughs.
15:57 mtompset No, I need a windows environment for working.
15:58 jcamins mtompset: http://www.ubuntu.com/download[…]windows-installer
15:59 mtompset I'm not looking to dual boot. I hate dual booting. :P
16:00 jcamins Yes, that's why you don't dual boot.
16:01 You install Ubuntu, boot it, and never reboot again because suddenly your computer works well.
16:01 :P
16:01 oleonard mtompset: Right click desktop, choose "personalize"
16:02 jcamins oleonard: there's a "replace with pleasant-to-use OS" option under the personalization control panel? :)
16:02 (actually, I've never used Windows 7)
16:03 mtompset jcamins: I need to use the OS of the people I have to interact with/support.
16:03 Windows 7 Basic is the theme I want. :)
16:05 oleonard jcamins: Linux may be powerful, but I wouldn't call the desktop environment "pleasant to use"

16:08 gerundio I was just informed that all our records were incorrectly given the same item type during import
16:08 is there any function which I can use in a script to update the item type for a given record?
16:17 jcamins gerundio: you could do bulk item edits.
16:17 Or, if there's some way to identify the records programmatically, the best option would probably be a new script to do it.
16:17 gerundio jcamins, that's my idea
16:17 create a new script to do it
16:18 bulk item might be too hard since I have to map the item types from docbase to the new item types on koha
16:18 and I have 60k+ records to go through
16:19 around 5k have wrong item types assigned to
16:20 jcamins Yeah, I'd recommend a script.

17:02 H Hey all
17:02 khall is there a quick way for me to verify that ICU indexing is enable for a koha installation?
17:02 jcamins khall: without terminal access, no.
17:02 khall how about with terminal access?
17:03 jcamins Yeah, just take a look at zebradb/etc/default.idx.
17:06 thd-away joined #koha
17:06 H question on my new server for my zebra search seems to lose his ENV variables and so also my cronjob does not run ... if i put in the variables i can do the indexing but then the next login no variables annyone knows this problem ?
17:07 jcamins H: you should set your environment variables in your crontab.
17:07 H ah did not do that in the old machine
17:07 is that just a line ?
17:07 thd-away joined #koha
17:07 jcamins I'm surprised it worked at all on the old machine, then. :/
17:07 Yeah.
17:08 khall jcamins: thanks!
17:08 H still does lol
17:08 jcamins One moment, I'll find a sample.
17:08 Wait, aren't you using Ubuntu? Why aren't you using packages?

17:10 jcamins khall: really? I was able to reproduce the problem.
17:11 My preferred solution, of course, is to just stop using CCL2RPN since it's a bad idea all around. ;)
17:11 khall what's the alternative?
17:11 wahanui the alternative is collecting jars to put it in so you can throw it away, where it does no one any good.

18:27 cait morning rangi
18:27 rangi jcamins: ill try the db update when I get to my desk
18:28 jcamins rangi: thanks!
18:30 rangi druthb_lunch: lemme know when you want dns changed,  also did you see my string freeze email?
18:53 vfernandes bye guys :) my first patch pushed... and portuguese translations do 3.8 at almost 80%. I'm happy :P
18:56 mtompset Good job, vfernandes. :)
18:58 git-bz?
18:58 wahanui well, git-bz is at http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]_bz_configuration
19:00 druthb rangi:  You can change the DNS any time; I'm using a redirect, and the move has already happened.  Yes, I did; I'll be doing the update this evening.
19:01 (this afternoon, if I can sort out what needs to be done.  I got little-to-no documentation.)
19:03 rangi righto thanks
19:03 ill change the dns now
19:06 druthb rangi++
19:06 rangi dns changed, it will take some time to filter around the net
19:07 druthb sure.  I'll keep the redirect up, no itch.
19:07 rangi cool
19:07 jcamins: it jumped past the borrower_modifications changes
19:08 ie
19:08 $DBversion = "3.11.00.008";
19:08 if (CheckVersion($DBversion)) {
19:08 still failed
19:08 but
19:08 $DBversion = "3.11.00.009";
19:08 if (C4::Context->preference("Version") < TransformToNum($DBversion)) {
19:08 ran
19:09 so its now at 3.11.00.009
19:09 but the .008 change never ran, so tests are still failing
19:09 jcamins ...
19:09 that's bizarre.
19:09 rangi that checkversion is totally not working on jenkins
19:09 jcamins I've had several people check, and .008 ran on every single other computer.
19:09 Okay.
19:10 If you manually set the version back does it still not run?
19:10 rangi it was .007 just before i ran it this morning
19:10 jcamins I'll just revert CheckVersion if it does not.
19:10 rangi but i can wind it back and try again
19:10 jcamins Oh, I just thought of something... you don't have PERL5LIB pointing to somewhere else, do you?
19:11 rangi nope
19:11 echo $PERL5LIB

19:13 jcamins That's really weird.
19:13 rangi not sure why
19:13 wahanui not sure why is still pulling it
19:13 jcamins It must be failing to load kohaversion.pl
19:14 rangi hmm thats my guess
19:14 tcohen maybe its just cursed
19:14 jcamins tcohen: hehe.
19:14 Seems likely.
19:15 rangi C4::Context->final_linear_version
19:15 i bet that is failing
19:16 jcamins Yeah, but all that does is loads kohaversion.pl.
19:16 seneca joined #koha
19:17 rangi my $cgidir = C4::Context->intranetdir;
19:18 seneca Anyone know what would cause "opac-search.pl" on Debian to suddenly multiply and eat up all the RAM, thereby freezing the OS?
19:19 rangi seneca: check your access logs, something is probably hammering the server
19:19 jcamins: i think its a pathing issue
19:20 its looking at the kohaversion that is installed
19:20 seneca does opac-search.pl run for each search?
19:20 rangi not the one that is in the checkout
19:20 jcamins rangi: you know, I never tested it where I was checking out code but not installing it.
19:20 rangi i can fix that with a symlink on jenkins, but im not sure if will bite others
19:20 jcamins Never even occurred to me to want to.
19:21 I tested it on packages and regular installs (as well as git), but not a regular install with a git checkout.
19:21 rangi yep its unlikely to happen

19:28 over and over and over
19:28 * wizzyrea waves
19:29 seneca but we're a small school, and it crashed when only 9 students were using the opac at once
19:30 everything was cool, until suddenly at least 22 "opac-search.pl" instances opened (all that I could see in the term where I was watching top)
19:30 rangi what does the access log say?
19:30 seneca all of them claiming ~1.5% of the memory
19:30 wizzyrea cait - support provider list broken how?
19:30 seneca apache access?
19:31 rangi go to your virtual host config for your koha sites and uncomment the accesslog for the opac
19:31 that way you will be able to see whats actually hitting it
19:31 i suspect google :)
19:31 or baidu
19:32 do you have a robots.txt ?
19:32 seneca I se what you're getting at, but I don't think that's it'
19:32 I think we can make it happen...
19:32 it only freezes/crashes when a class is being taught how to uses the opac
19:32 rangi then you justt need to lower the concurrent threads/workers on your apache
19:33 because you dont have enough ram to handle as much as you are telling apache you can handle
19:34 seneca hmmm
19:34 rangi its better to have some queue up
19:34 than try to serve more than you can serve
19:34 if you hit swap
19:34 seneca 2 GB of RAM on this server
19:34 rangi that will happen, apache will just keep opening more connections up to its limit
19:35 seneca I get that, but I don't think anything is telling apache to open the connections - the thing that would do that would be people or bots doing opac searches, right?
19:36 rangi yes
19:36 ppl hitting refresh cos its slow
19:36 seneca and there's no way (I don't think) that we suddenly got enough searches to take out 2GB of RAM in a second's time
19:37 rangi right, well i told you what i think happened from 12 years of koha experience, you are of course free to ignore me
19:37 seneca I'm not ignoring you, I'm responding, aren't I? ;)
19:38 and I appreciate the feedback, but I've got about the same amount of experience running apaceh on servers at this same school
19:38 something just doesn't sound right
19:38 jcamins seneca: you have a class full of students all hitting the OPAC at once?
19:38 rangi its the phase of the moon
19:39 seneca sorta:
19:39 wizzyrea excuse?
19:39 rangi mayan prophesy
19:39 wahanui wizzyrea: We're upgrading /dev/null
19:39 seneca the class today was all of 9 people
19:39 and they were all using the opac for 30 mins before the problem occured
19:39 jcamins rangi: no it isn't. It's the fact that 10 kids all typed in the exact same thing, hit enter simultaneously, clicked "search," clicked again, clicked refresh, and took down the server.
19:39 seneca b/c this has happened before, I was watching the server
19:40 jcamins And the processes just kept on stackig up, like the kids were hitting refresh too quickly?
19:40 * jcamins leaves again.
19:40 seneca instances of opac-search.pl were popping in and out of existence like they are supposed to
19:40 no, the processes weren't stacking up
19:40 kathryn joined #koha
19:40 jcamins I am ~10 lines from perfect coverage in my unit test.
19:40 wizzyrea \o/
19:41 fast indexer went off?
19:41 jcamins Okay, not _perfect_
19:41 But awesomely close thereto.
19:41 rangi nice!
19:41 wizzyrea 99.98% or something
19:41 jcamins Yeah.
19:41 seneca everything seemed to be working as it should, until it wasn't: in about 1 or 2 seconds so many opac-search.pl instances pooped into existence that it ate up nearly 2GB of RAM and crashed the server
19:42 wizzyrea your opac is internet accessible eh?
19:42 seneca yeah, it is, and I know what you're going to say
19:42 * wizzyrea wasn't going to say anythign
19:42 was just asking questions
19:43 seneca but the internet's people and bots don't have any way to line up with when classes are using the opac
19:43 hehe
19:43 JesseM left #koha
19:43 rangi you could turn your access logs on .. then you'd actually know, not just be guessing
19:43 seneca and I just did, thanks for that tip
19:43 wizzyrea *shrug* only way to know would be to turn on the logs
19:43 jcamins I worked for a support vendor that had a union catalog which included schools.
19:43 wizzyrea and it couldn't hurt to have a robots.txt
19:44 * wizzyrea considers these things good practice anyway
19:44 seneca by my calculation, that would be a sudden ~66 opac searches simultaneously
19:44 me too, I just installed this Debian server + koha-from-apt server a few months ago and didn't realize that the access log was disabled by default
19:44 jcamins Their server went down every time there was a class, too.
19:45 seneca hmm
19:45 how big was their class?
19:45 larryb joined #koha
19:45 seneca 9 kids hitting 66 searches all within a few seconds of eachother seems pretty far fetched. :)

19:46 seneca wow. that's incredible to me
19:47 jcamins seneca: you've never watched kids use a computer.
19:47 larryb saw the discussion on the logs. For a 2G server, 9 students is plenty to crash it.
19:47 * wizzyrea has
19:47 wizzyrea they are CLICK HAPPY
19:47 larryb All you have to do is get 9 students to hit reload 7 times and you've got your 66.
19:47 wizzyrea and if it doesn't come back in 2ms
19:47 they are going to try again
19:47 because that is the world they live in
19:47 trea ^^
19:47 jcamins My 12yo cousin is incredible... click..click..click..refreshrefreshrefreshrefre​shrefreshrefreshrefreshrefreshrefreshrefresh... "I'm bored."
19:47 seneca jcamins: I've been working as a director of technology in a school for 8+ years, and I was a teacher before that for 7, so I actually HAVE seen a kid use a computer
19:48 jcamins seneca: I didn't mean that literally.
19:48 wizzyrea not these kids.
19:48 seneca 9 kids hitting 7 times in the same 2 seconds
19:48 larryb I've seen this dozens and dozens (and dozens) of times. I call it a "self-inflicted denial of service attack".
19:48 wizzyrea SIDDOS
19:48 rhymes with "kiddos"
19:48 jcamins Nah, it's 9 kids hitting seven times in the same minute and a half.
19:49 seneca why a minute and a half?
19:49 (I'm trying to figure out what I don't understand that you guys do)
19:49 jcamins Because starting the Apache process is slooooowww.
19:50 And every additional request makes it slower.
19:50 seneca let me ask this: what is it that opac-search.pl does?
19:50 izzaboo hi there. i've got a question that's a little higher level, so to speak, than what y'all are talking about.
19:50 mind if I interupt/ject?
19:50 jcamins seneca: that's the search screen. For searching for books.
19:50 wizzyrea go for it :)
19:50 jcamins izzaboo: go ahead.
19:51 izzaboo i'm new to koha. doing some probono wordpress work for local library
19:51 jcamins seneca: it's the most computationally intensive page, as well as the one most likely to be clicked to death by students.
19:51 izzaboo and looking for ways to integrate opac lists into library's website
19:51 seneca jcamins: that's what I thought - when I do a search in the opac it returns my answer on average in about 1 to 2 seconds
19:51 izzaboo been searching through listserve archive
19:51 and the wiki
19:51 wahanui the wiki is kind of an expert http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]L_Reports_Library
19:51 rangi however if 9 ppl do that, that 1 to 2 can easily become 3-4
19:52 izzaboo wahanui: thanks!
19:52 wahanui no problem izzaboo
19:52 seneca jcamins: sure
19:52 oleonard izzaboo: There is no built-in functionality to accomplish that
19:52 wizzyrea er, izzaboo wahanui is a bot
19:52 jcamins izzaboo: wahanui is a bot.
19:52 wizzyrea that probably won't help you
19:52 :)
19:52 seneca jcamins: but then how do you get to a minute and half?
19:52 izzaboo bots are ppl too!
19:52 heh
19:52 seneca heh
19:52 rangi izzaboo: you can use reports, make a public report then you can get the contents as json from the opac
19:52 if you are using 3.10 or later
19:52 wizzyrea ^ ^
19:53 oleonard izzaboo: Or build something in PHP that queries Koha directly
19:53 * oleonard worked on RSS for lists, but didn't get very far
19:54 jcamins seneca: the minute and a half is not a scientific measure.
19:54 izzaboo i didn't see a php api. should i get access to the db directly? or use the same query fields from the opac website?
19:54 seneca jcamins: heh
19:54 rangi i really really recommend using the reports
19:54 jcamins It's an observation that when the load gets really heavy, spare opac-search.pl pages will hang around for about a minute and a half before they finally exit.
19:54 rangi it can cache the results for you if you wnt too, and you can get it in json
19:55 so its super easy to pull into a website
19:55 izzaboo okay. i'll look into the reports
19:55 then i can parse the json into a small <ul> i think
19:55 seneca jcamins: "spare opac-search.pl" pages? like apache gets them ready, but they are never used?
19:57 jcamins seneca: I'm not sure whether they're non-garbage collected pages that have been used, pages where the remote end doesn't want them, pages that never got any CPU time, or something else I haven't thought of.
19:57 izzaboo i was spending so much time reading about lists when I should've been reading this: http://es.koha-community.org/m[…]ster/en/ch09.html
19:57 thank you guys!
19:58 jcamins Also, it strikes me that it could be less or more time depending on the size of the server.
19:59 seneca jcamins: would ~66 of these pages show up suddenly in top within a couple of seconds of each other? It doesn't seem like that's what would happen with what you've been describing
19:59 jcamins: again, I appreciate the help and the ability to talk this through with someone
19:59 jcamins seneca: sure it would... they weren't using any CPU.
19:59 larryb Yes, that could easily happen when a classroom of kids get impatient start hitting reload.
20:00 Pretty much every task creates a perl process. If you hit reload, a new process is created, but the previous is still running.
20:01 Since the browser now thinks a new process has been submitted, the old process has nowhere to send it's output, so it hangs about until it times out.
20:02 So hitting reload not only creates new processes, without killing the old ones, but the old ones hang around even longer, until they time out.
20:02 Basically, lots of reloads in koha = death.
20:03 seneca larryb: I get that, but as I was watching top, I had it ordered by mem usage
20:03 not cpu usage
20:04 I guess I still don't understand why ~66 opac-search.pl instances would claim some memory all at once
20:04 larryb The perl and apache processes start using your RAM, that's what's slowing you down, not the cpu.
20:04 Well, that plus the number of connections to mysql.
20:05 seneca that doesn't sound like the compound problem you and jcamins have been describing
20:05 larryb, yeas, I understand - the server crashes with "out of memory" errors, which is why I was watching top ordered for mem usage
20:06 also, to throw some context into the situation, this problem is relatively new, although we've been using this Debian install of the server for a few months
20:07 before that we were using an older Debian install for a couple of years with 2GB of RAM, without this issue
20:07 jcamins Older versions of Koha were definitely smaller.
20:08 larryb Lots of things can change with a move to a new server. The primary ones that affect memory usage are the mysql settings, in /etc/mysql/my.cnf, and the apache settings, in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf.
20:08 Perhaps those are different on your new server than they were on the old.
20:09 mtompset joined #koha
20:09 seneca I guess I still don't understand what would cause that many opac-search.pl instances to show up and claim RAM all at once.
20:10 But if I were going to make a setting in apache to prevent this problem, what config options would you recommend I set?
20:11 larryb We've said it several times. YOu have a classroom of kids, they all submit searches at once, they get impatient if they don't get a response back in 2 seconds, they hit reload, the system gets slower, they hit reload more often, processes start piling up, and boom, you're out of memory.
20:11 rangi MaxClients
20:11 ThreadsPerChild
20:11 those kind of things
20:12 seneca What are some example settings that you guys use? And I guess I should ask how much RAM is in the example servers.
20:15 larryb We have lots of servers, ranging from 512M to 32G. For a 2G server, esp one that frequently has students using it, I edit /etc/apache2/apache2.conf and set KeepAliveTimeout to 2 and MaxClients to 25 (if you're using mpm-worker).
20:19 seneca hmm
20:19 it appears this server is running mpm-itk
20:19 larryb If you're using Koha package, then yeah, that's the default.
20:20 seneca IA m
20:20 oops... I am
20:21 there's not a distinct config section for mpm-itk... does it use the prefork config section?
20:21 larryb No, I believe it'll use the default settings, which for MaxClients is an egregious 150.
20:22 seneca thanks larryb, but where do I change that default in apache.conf?
20:23 is that just anywhere in there, outside of an IfModule section?
20:23 larryb rangi, wizzyrea: do you guys add an mpm-itk section to your apache2.conf? Most of our sites use git, so I don't have a sample section.
20:26 seneca thanks larryb
20:27 rangi i think it needs to be outside of it
20:27 seneca I've never used itk before
20:28 rangi MaxClientsVHost can only be set inside a VirtualHost directive; all others can be set wherever you'd like in the Apache configuration, except in .htaccess.
20:28 you can set max clients on a per virtualhost basis
20:28 nengard left #koha
20:29 seneca should I have a VirtualHost section in apache.conf? (I don't currently)
20:29 cait wizzyrea: good morning :) sorry was busy lemon cake - this morning it showed a database error when you got to the support vendor page
20:30 larryb seneca, No the VirtualHost directive exists in sites-available/<your-koha-instance>
20:30 seneca Of course, I'm not against switching to prefork, worker, or event if that will work
20:30 mtompset Greetings, cait wizzyrea rangi seneca larryb etc. :)
20:30 seneca larryb: OK, I'm familiar with it being there.
20:30 jatara joined #koha
20:30 larryb It'll cause problems when you upgrade the package Koha. Package koha requires itk.
20:30 seneca ah
20:31 then I shall not mess with it
20:31 larryb I suppose it might work, but I've never tried it with our package sites.

20:48 seneca ok, set my global MaxClients and KeepAliveTimeout to conservative numbers (I think) and I await until the next class is in there at 2pm tomorrow.
20:48 thanks for the help jcamins, rangi and larryb
20:49 and anyone else who chimed in...
20:49 I will let you know if the problem doesn't raise its ugly head tomorrow
20:51 slef itk has MaxClientsVHost too
20:51 can be useful
20:51 can be set inside the VirtualHost
21:01 seneca Saw that, but koha is the only Vhost on this server, and will be, so I set it globally
21:01 ciao all
21:14 larryb left #koha
21:15 seneca joined #koha
21:17 seneca okay, apparently I left too soon!
21:18 just did an upgrade via apt-get, koha went to 3.10.0.0 and now I get this when logging in: Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Auth_with_ldap.pm
21:20 upgraded from 3.8 something, if that helps
21:21 jcamins I don't know anything about the LDAP auth code, but the first question is whether you use LDAP.
21:21 seneca we do
21:22 jcamins Okay.
21:22 seneca checking that config now
21:22 mtompset Is there a config value that needs to be toggled to 1? :)
21:22 jcamins I figured that "I didn't configure LDAP" would probably explain the issue most quickly.
21:22 seneca ha!
21:23 where is the koha config when you use the apt install?
21:23 mtompset LDAP still needs to be edit'd manually, as far as I know.
21:23 jcamins /etc/koha/sites/[instancename]/koha-conf.xml.
21:23 mtompset In that location. :)
21:24 seneca the correct ldap stuff is still in the config...
21:24 jcamins seneca: I know about this blog post, which probably won't help... :/ http://bywatersolutions.com/2012/07/09/koha-ldap/
21:24 seneca woah - also, the opac looks...odd
21:25 library.mvschool.com
21:25 hadn't noticed that...
21:25 jcamins Oh, I bet it's the CSS issue that's going to be fixed by 3.10.1
21:25 Two files ended up in the wrong place.
21:26 seneca oh!
21:26 can one manually fix that?
21:26 maybe move them where they belong?
21:26 jcamins Yeah.
21:27 seneca anyone have a link to the bug report?
21:27 jcamins You need the files reset-fonts-grid.css and skin.css to be in /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs/opac-tmpl/lib/yui/
21:27 seneca or feel like just telling me? :)
21:27 thanks!
21:27 jcamins I have no idea where they are at present.
21:28 But a find should answer that question.
21:28 seneca not seeing the first one at all...
21:29 jcamins Weird. I suggest you just download a copy from...
21:29 http://git.koha-community.org/[…]692e2b606;hb=HEAD
21:31 seneca hrm. np change
21:32 er no
21:33 jcamins Did you find skin.css?
21:33 You need both.
21:33 seneca yeah, I found /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs/opac-tmpl/prog/en/css/skin.css
21:34 jcamins It's still failing to load http://library.mvschool.com/op[…]t-fonts-grids.css
21:35 seneca weird...
21:35 wahanui weird is normal after a while :)
21:35 maximep am i missing something or are localcovers not shown in the shelf browser ?
21:35 mtompset Don't forget those stupid stale CSS situations. ;)
21:35 jcamins maximep: you are not missing something.
21:36 mtompset: not in this case.
21:36 maximep: it never occurred to me.
21:36 mtompset: I checked only after the change.
21:37 maximep was a bug report opened for it ?
21:37 seneca wait, in yui there is a dir called "reset-fonts-grids" and in there is already a file called reset-fonts-grids.css
21:37 eythian hi
21:37 jcamins maximep: no.
21:38 maximep ok, thanks
21:38 seneca ok, I guess that's where that one went astray to
21:38 it appears to like that version
21:39 thanks for that tip
21:39 unfortunately, CSS doesn't appear to be at the root of the ldap issue ;)

21:42 rangi ohh another new committer
21:42 jcamins Yeah, I'm not surprised.
21:42 rangi: oh?
21:42 rangi Vitor FERNANDES
21:42 jcamins Do I need to update docs/history.txt?
21:42 rangi i think so
21:42 lemme check
21:43 yep
21:43 he is new
21:44 jenkins_koha Starting build #33 for job Koha_3.10.x (previous build: SUCCESS)
21:46 seneca anybody else using ldap with version 3.10?
21:47 jcamins I think libsysguy has done it, but he's not around.
21:47 seneca does that error look weird to anyone else?
21:47 wondering what the <DATA> part is
21:48 eythian is there anything on line 181 that would give you a clue as to what it's expecting.
21:48 that's the important bit
21:48 seneca well, 522 is where the comments start...
21:48 eythian 522 is not 181 though
21:49 seneca and 181 is: for (my $i; $i< scalar(@$extended_patron_attributes)-1;$i++) {
21:49 jcamins Ah.
21:49 eythian ok, so that means that $extended_p... is undef
21:49 jcamins Now I understand.
21:49 eythian do you use them>
21:49 ?
21:49 jcamins There are no extended patron attributes configured.
21:50 eythian also, that's weird and unnecessary code
21:50 oh, maybe now
21:50 not
21:50 though I wonder why the -1 is there.
21:50 seneca So....
21:50 jcamins eythian: it's a weird way of doing each.
21:50 seneca there are no extended patron attributes configured, or that array is undefined?
21:51 b/c having none configured wouldn't make it fail, would it?
21:51 jcamins Looks to me like that array is undefined if no extended patron attributes are configured
21:51 Apparently it does.
21:51 eythian jcamins: no, it does "each but skip the last one"
21:51 seneca hmm
21:51 eythian if that loop was better formed, it'd just do nothing.
21:51 seneca ah
21:52 jcamins eythian: really? I thought it had something to do with zero-based and one-based indexing.
21:52 BobB joined #koha
21:52 seneca what are "extended patron attributes?
21:52 eythian jcamins: it might be, if it's accessing $i+1 inside the loop (I haven't looked)
21:52 but that would also be strange, you'd just start $i at 1
21:53 jcamins: people who don't know better often do #$array-1 in a loop
21:53 I wonder if it's trying to do that, but wrong
21:53 * jcamins always just uses foreach.
21:53 jcamins for loops like that are for C, in my mind.
21:54 seneca http://pastebin.com/2cvHVEGQ
21:54 eythian me too, unless I need the index.
21:54 seneca that's the loop
21:54 eythian ok, that looks wrong in a couple of ways
21:54 the one affecting you is that it should be a foreach
21:55 jcamins seneca: they're for adding additional information about your patrons that isn't available from the built-in fields.
21:55 seneca ah
21:55 jcamins If you're not using them, you should just disable the ExtendedPatronAttributes syspref.
21:55 eythian the quick option may be to make sure that you have the extended attributes syspref turned off if you're not ....
21:55 seneca just got word from the librarian (my wife) we are not using any
21:55 eythian what jcamins said
21:55 seneca I will disable it just as soon as I can log in again ;)
21:55 eythian the followup to that option would be to file a bug
21:56 jcamins seneca: ooh, right.
21:56 eythian you should be able to log in with the database credentials to fix that
21:56 seneca heh
21:56 jcamins Ummm...
21:56 edveal Has anyone come up with some jqury to force phone number to follow a specific format?
21:56 jcamins Good thought.
21:57 seneca I can log into the intranet site with the db credentials?
21:57 eythian yes
21:57 dbname and dbpassword gives you superuser access
21:57 seneca hmm... you learn something new everyday...
21:58 jcamins You may need to find the password in /etc/koha/sites/library/koha-conf.xml.
21:58 It's the last password.
21:58 eythian last password outside the LDAP section, anyway
21:59 jcamins Right.
22:00 seneca in the "publicserver" section?
22:00 eythian no
22:00 at the bottom
22:01 seneca my ldap config is at the bottom
22:01 oh
22:01 I see it
22:01 eythian above that
22:01 seneca sorry
22:02 I'm in
22:02 eythian cool
22:02 seneca that's a very cool trick to know - thanks!
22:02 know off the top of your head where the extended patron attributes are?
22:02 * jcamins probably would not have thought of it.
22:02 seneca well, the toggle for it
22:02 jcamins I always search.
22:02 (in the sysprefs)
22:03 seneca good idea
22:03 jcamins Patrons.
22:03 Yay! Time for tea and cookies!
22:03 * jcamins leaves to have tea and cookies.
22:04 seneca ...and disabling them gets around that loop
22:04 awesome
22:04 I shall file the bug
22:04 eythian cool :)
22:04 seneca thanks soooo much for the help
22:13 what component would you say that bug should be filed under?
22:14 I'm going with architecture...
22:17 eythian authentication, if that's a component?
22:17 yeah, that
22:17 wahanui yeah, that is cool - a way to enhance the OPAC without bloating Koha...
22:20 seneca and now my sick a$$ is heading home to bed! Thanks again all
