00:00 tcohen exactly
00:01 pastebot "tcohen" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "test script" (30 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/472
00:02 tcohen maybe that patch isn't old enough
00:02 bgkriegel I see
00:02 Irma joined #koha
00:03 dcook Sometimes git bisect messes up as well
00:03 I've come up with the wrong patch using it before
00:03 tcohen I think my mistake is i'm not deleting the es-ES trnaslation on each iteration
00:04 eythian yeah, you've got to be careful to make sure it's as clean as possible
00:04 mtompset wizzyrea, you still here?
00:04 bgkriegel git clean -f -d?
00:04 tcohen dammmmmmmn, i'm grep-ing 'en' instead :-D
00:05 bgkriegel oops
00:05 mtompset Don't grep for such a small thing like 'en', that's going to scroll like mad!
00:05 eythian bgkriegel: not so much that, but anything that might not change properly with git needs to be kept in mind. Like translations.
00:06 bgkriegel yeah, right
00:08 mtompset I think the wording on the Ubuntu line is really the only remaining problem with http://koha-community.org/download-koha/. Right, tcohen?
00:11 wizzyrea there are no ubuntu  packages - you use the debian ones on ubuntu.
00:11 unless that has changed?
00:11 tcohen mtompset: right
00:11 eythian that hasn't changed
00:11 mtompset Yes, they are the debian ones, but to a non-technical person, the reference to Debian on the Ubuntu line might be confusing.
00:12 tcohen does the end user need to know that wizzyrea?
00:12 wizzyrea yes, I think so.
00:12 tcohen that packages where not built specifically for Ubuntu?
00:12 dcook You could always call them "Deb" packages
00:13 tcohen i will always try to make it less obscure for the non-tech user, I like Debian anyway, but that's my motivation
00:13 mtompset The links, however, are a vast improvement. Thank you, wizzyrea. :)
00:13 eythian then don't mention it at all just "how to install on Ubuntu"
00:13 +,
00:13 dcook "Ubuntu users can find instructions on our wiki for how to use the Debian packages on Ubuntu."
00:14 That sounds reasonable as it is
00:14 mtompset wizzyrea++ # for updating the links. :)
00:15 bgkriegel tcohen, git clean -f -d; git reset --hard HEAD~35; (cd misc/translator/; perl translate install es-ES) and all is good, on HEAD~34 is a Warning: Can't determine original templates' charset, defaulting to UTF-8 and ñ dies
00:15 wizzyrea mtompset: no worries :)
00:16 tcohen so, u found it
00:16 bgkriegel trial and error
00:16 * mtompset high fives bgkriegel.
00:17 bgkriegel :)
00:17 * dcook really should try out installing Koha on Debian/Ubuntu
00:19 dcook It would be interesting to look into making RPMs as well
00:20 While I've only seen a few mentions of RedHat, I seem to remember rangi mentioning that OpenSuse was pretty popular in India
00:20 * dcook goes back to authority wrangling
00:22 mtompset I was tinkering with that a couple weeks back, but then I pulled the plug on it, as I'd really like a non-CPAN solution for CentOS 6.x. Other projects needed more focus.
00:23 dcook I know the feeling ;)
00:24 tcohen night #koha, gotta cook
00:24 :-D
00:25 dcook authorities?
00:25 wahanui authorities are records that describe particular entities.
00:25 dcook authorities?
00:25 wahanui authorities are records that describe particular entities.
00:26 dcook wahanui: authorities is also http://www.loc.gov/marc/uma/index.html
00:26 wahanui OK, dcook.
00:26 dcook authorities?
00:26 wahanui hmmm... authorities is http://www.loc.gov/marc/uma/index.html
00:58 jatara joined #koha
01:20 eythian wahanui: computers are http://www.qwantz.com/index.php?comic=2406
01:20 wahanui ...but computers is necessary for making libraries part of the rest of the computerised culture....
01:20 ...but computers are necessary for making libraries part of the rest of the computerised culture....
01:20 eythian wahanui: computers are also http://www.qwantz.com/index.php?comic=2406
01:20 wahanui okay, eythian.
01:20 OK, eythian.
01:33 dcook So...I just ran touch_all_biblios, and for some reason my changes to the 003 of one record have been reversed, and the script said it "Touched item"...
01:33 Even though I don't see anywhere in the script where it would print "Touched item" O_o
01:36 Ahh...my change never actually happened
01:36 That makes sense
01:37 I guess..
01:37 Still not sure about the "Touched item" printing out though
01:44 wizzyrea oleonard++
01:47 dcook Helps if you run touch_all_biblios and not touch_all_items...
01:47 * dcook facepalm
01:47 dcook Is it Friday yet?
01:47 eythian not long now
01:48 dcook Beer...need...beer
01:48 Yay! Everything working as it should!
01:51 Oooh
01:52 wizzyrea squirrels?
01:52 wahanui I think you mean "sqrats"
01:52 dcook O_o
01:52 * wizzyrea giggles
02:07 dcook Whoa...touch_all_biblios really does it all

02:47 eythian you can't? I can.
02:48 e.g.
02:48 jan 13 06:07:07 <rangi>rangi--
02:48 bag can't self demote can you?
02:48 eythian no :)
02:48 bag so I guess you can't either :P
02:48 heh
02:50 gmcharlt @quote random
02:50 huginn gmcharlt: Quote #196: "oleonard: maybe if I didn't have all this Bugzilla stuff stored in my head I would be able to walk and chew gum at the same time." (added by wizzyrea at 04:41 PM, April 02, 2012)
02:54 dcook gmcharlt: Any change of a sort_control_fields (like this one: http://libmail.georgialibrarie[…]mber/007787.html) method ending up in MARC::Record?
02:54 change = chance*
02:54 wahanui dcook: that doesn't look right
02:54 wahanui joined #koha
02:55 dcook Actually, that's not control fields...it's all 0xx...
02:56 gmcharlt dcook: indeed
02:56 dcook Indeed to the question or the statement?
02:56 gmcharlt the statement :)
02:57 dcook Thought that might be the case
02:57 gmcharlt as far as the question -- seems appropriate for a MARC::Record::Utils, perhaps
02:59 dcook Hmm, cool beans
02:59 I suppose sorting really should matter that much
02:59 Except perhaps in terms of datafields as the cataloguer on that site mentions
02:59 shouldn't*
03:01 Of course, the whole MARC dying thing would really help with the not bothering...:p
03:02 gmcharlt dcook: eh, it ain't dead yet, alas
03:02 mtj hey peeps, how does koha deal with upgrading language files, with a pkg upgrade?
03:03 ...anyone know, off their heads?
03:03 dcook gmcharlt: True enough. Is it a goal for 3.14 to start trying to use other XML metadata formats?
03:03 bag kill MARC!!!!
03:03 dcook Seems like a huge project :/
03:03 bag heh
03:04 eythian mtj: which language files?
03:04 mtj is a 'translate create/update/install' needed after an upgrade? nor not?
03:04 eythian yes
03:04 the packages don't know about htem
03:04 mtj korean
03:04 ok, thanks eythian
03:05 gmcharlt dcook: to add support for additional ones, yes
03:05 dcook :D
03:10 gmcharlt but at beast 3.14 merely lays the execution block, it won't be the executioner :)
03:10 *best
03:10 dcook :)
03:11 Thankfully
03:11 I imagine that MARC will be around for a long time...
03:11 In some way shape or form
03:11 way, shape, or form*
03:11 * dcook thinks it's time to eat and recharge the (grammar) brain
03:12 dcook On a side note, Zebra can index other library XML metadata formats? http://gilbane.com/2006/09/ind[…]leases-zebra-2-0/
03:15 gmcharlt dcook: it can index XML of any schema, in fact
03:15 dcook Right
03:16 Actually, while I have you on the line...
03:16 Why do we still use the marc blob?
03:16 Or rather store the raw marc in a blob
03:17 eythian it's fast to process
03:17 (there may be other reasons)
03:17 bag export?
03:17 wahanui i think export is export.
03:17 dcook eythian: true that
03:17 bag heh thanks wahanui
03:17 good to have limits :P
03:17 heh
03:19 jcamins No, mostly just speed.
03:20 gmcharlt dcook: eh, history?
03:20 I don't think we really gain anything by storing both MARC and MARCXML in biblioitems
03:21 dcook With the exception of speed, that's what I've been thinking as well
03:21 jcamins I don't think it gives enough speed benefit to make a difference anyway.
03:22 bag but we do write to two/three spots at the same time - so there has to be a speed win
03:22 dcook I'm trying to remember what Edmund (the boss man) was saying about the speed benefit
03:23 eythian it's substantially faster when doing large batch operations
03:23 bag maybe not majorly noticeable - but in batch that should be noticeable
03:23 dcook For a library of 800,000+ records, I seem to remember him saying that it was quite a noticeable speed gain
03:23 I want to say he said 30%
03:23 eythian much less significant on regular browsing I'd expect
03:23 and really, a better solution would be to serialise the MARC::Record objects into memcache
03:25 gmcharlt dcook: well, the recent release of MARC::File::XML significantly speeds up its XML parsing
03:27 eythian ah, good to know
03:28 dcook Yay!
03:28 Although that won't have an impact on indexing
03:29 eythian indexing is done as XML by default with the packages
03:30 gmcharlt dcook: well, indexing (particularly updates) is going to be slow anyway with either Zebra or Solr, relative to search speed
03:31 dcook Yeah, I think we tend to do most of our indexing as XML as well, eythian. Just one or two instances where a particularly large library benefits from the raw marc
03:32 gmcharlt: Yeah, I've heard that they have pretty comparable indexing speeds
04:39 eythian http://i.imgur.com/YzDKkvW.jpg <-- east-vs.-west Berlin by different types of street-lighting
04:57 dcook Neato!
05:05 cait joined #koha
05:08 eythian hi cait
05:08 cait hi eythian :)
05:13 dcook hey cait :)
05:15 Hmm, so there's no way to automate the merging of authorities is there?
05:16 merge_authority.pl works nice when using -f -t flags, but the batch mode is...confusing
05:16 eythian I don't think I've ever had cause to use it
05:21 dcook I have the feeling it doesn't do what I think it's supposed to do :p
05:21 cait talking about the automerge thing?
05:22 dcook Possibly?
05:22 cait i thought there was a cronjob and the immediate thing
05:22 using the switch in the pref
05:23 dcook Yeah, that's what the syspref says
05:23 cait but... we don't use it
05:23 dcook Which setting do you have?
05:23 cait the standard one
05:23 I haven't touched it
05:23 we are in a different situation
05:23 if something changes, we get the new data from the union catalog and import that
05:24 libraries are not working with authorities locally, ony on union catalog level
05:24 dcook I want to say it's normally set to "Don't automatically update attached biblios when changing an authority record. If this is off, please ask your administrator to enable the merge_authority.pl cronjob."
05:24 cait ah yes
05:24 I think because it could take long if you have lots of records attached to an authority
05:25 i think the bug this was introduced with had a good description
05:25 maybe look for that?
05:25 brb
05:25 dcook So if it's set to "Don't"...it puts the authid in the "need_merge_authorities" table for the cronjob to pick up separately
05:25 drojf joined #koha
05:26 dcook Mmmm, I understand now
05:27 merge_authority.pl -b just "merges" the info from the authority record into the bib record (hence why it's reflexive in the script...)
05:27 Whereas merge_authority.pl -f -t actually merges two separate authorities
05:28 So no automated merging of different authorities
05:28 Ideally, you shouldn't have to merge authorities, but if you're importing from a different system with poor authority control...it would be good to have in migration_tools
05:29 Unless bulkauthimport.pl takes that into account..
05:29 Wait, that's deprecated
05:30 bag oh hey there cait
05:31 dcook Hmm, nope. No de-duplication that I can see..
05:34 * druthb finished updating pootle, and wanders off to bed.  0600 comes toooooo early.
05:38 bag later druthb_away
05:38 <dcook> Did anything ever come of make_spelling_suggest.pl?
05:38 no nothing
05:39 dcook I thought that might be the case
05:39 *shrug*
05:41 bag I think that code originally was from 2.2
05:42 I never saw the reason to bring it back once we had zebra and fuzzy logic (sadly)
05:43 * magnuse waves
05:43 bag heya magnuse
05:43 wahanui somebody said magnuse was a Norwegian giant.
05:43 magnuse kia ora bag!
05:43 bag sweet giant
05:44 magnuse pf
05:44 bag getting any warmer there magnuse
05:45 eythian should be, it's getting colder here. We held on to summer as long as we could.

05:46 magnuse eythian: sounds like wizzyrea & co got quite a start to their nz life :-)
05:46 cait still early here :)
05:46 eythian yeah, they had the best run of good weather we've had since nearly 100 years or so.
05:47 (unless you're a farmer, we also had drought over most of the country)
05:47 bag :)  so funny - in my house it's trea & co (other way around) :P
05:47 magnuse sad thing is it will probably never get that good again...
05:47 eythian that's OK, you just go to Australia in summer for a week or two if you need to :)
05:47 magnuse bag: hehe
05:48 eythian: ah, good plan! or somewhere like fiji, perhaps? ooh...
05:48 eythian yeah, that's an option too
05:50 * magnuse remembers seeing commercials on buses etc for that
05:50 magnuse oh well, breakfast time!
05:55 shiva joined #koha

06:01 I working on koha
06:01 bag awesome
06:01 eythian excellent :)
06:01 shiva newly installed
06:01 3.8 version
06:01 bag eythian: ever have a mint julep ?
06:01 shiva i have clarification
06:01 eythian bag: I don't think so, no
06:02 shiva regarding search index
06:02 bag ahhh they are big for the Kentucky Derby - I made some a few weeks ago they are "priming" in the fridge until Derby time
06:02 @google mint julep
06:02 huginn bag: Mint julep - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mint_julep>; Mint Julep: <http://shopmintjulep.com/>; Mint Julep recipe - DrinksMixer.com: <http://www.drinksmixer.com/drink5382.html>; The Perfect Mint Julep Recipe : : Recipes : Food Network: <http://www.foodnetwork.com/rec[…]int-julep-recipe/>; Bourbon Mint Julep Cocktail Recipe - Cocktails - (2 more messages)
06:03 eythian shiva: ask away, someone may be able to help.
06:03 bag: nice. I've never been to Kentucky either :)
06:05 bag they say about kentucky - getting lucky in kentucky
06:05 shiva i cataloged few items, which are not search-able in webopac or librarian interface
06:05 bag I've been to kentucky twice
06:05 searching?
06:05 wahanui searching is not working
06:06 bag indexing?
06:06 wahanui indexing is done by Zebra.
06:06 eythian wahanui: search faq
06:06 wahanui search faq is http://koha-community.org/documentation/faq/
06:06 bag thanks eythian
06:06 shiva ^^
06:06 shiva thans
06:06 eythian shiva: there should be a process that updates the index every 5 or so minutes. If it's not set up correctly, this will happen. There are other things that may break it too.
06:06 shiva i will let u know
06:06 eythian that page will cover the common causes.
06:11 * dcook praises MySQL, Perl, and bash then goes and makes a sandwich
06:12 shiva how to find the PERL5LIB=/path/to/your/koha
06:12 in Ubuntu
06:13 bag how did you install?
06:13 packages?
06:13 wahanui rumour has it packages is at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian
06:13 bag or git?
06:13 wahanui git is http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]Control_Using_Git
06:14 shiva i am new to this koha
06:15 one of my friend installed by live DVD
06:16 i found path for koha.conf.xml    .....file:///opt/kohaclone/etc/koha-conf.xml
06:23 sophie_m joined #koha
06:25 bag hmmm...
06:25 mtj you know what koha could use….?
06:25 a way for a super-user to stop/start zebra (or solr) from the koha gui
06:25 bag agreed mtj
06:26 heya mtj
06:26 shiva ok
06:26 mtj well, and configure the index rebuilding stuff, too
06:26 bag and configure zebra indexes :)
06:26 mtj oooh, bonus points there
06:27 bag they are just regular files there so it could be possible
06:28 mtj its the one thing that noobs always have problems with
06:28 shiva ok
06:29 mtj i guess a good start, would be some diag/debug info from the koha gui, about zebra indexing
06:30 whats the frequency, when then last index happened, when the next one will happen...
06:30 how many outstanding bibs are waiting to be indexed, etc...
06:31 ohh…. hey bagz, shiva
06:31 bag mtj we could add that info to the about page?
06:32 mtj sure
06:32 reiveune joined #koha
06:33 shiva how
06:33 reiveune hello
06:33 mtj see, with a package install, getting that info is well do-able....
06:34 without a package install - pulling that info from cron, is tricky
06:34 shiva i get into the koha about page
06:35 mtj perhaps we could query fredericdem's zebradaemon too, for that info
06:36 just thinking outloud here...
06:37 sorry, shiva  - we are talking about a feature that does not exist in koha
06:37 shiva ok
06:39 mtj shiva, the person that builds the offical Koha live-CD is not on IRC much...
06:39 i dont know how the zebra indexing is set up on the live-cd , so i cant really help you
06:41 shiva, if you want help with Koha on #irc, you should consider installing Koha using the debian packages
06:41 … thats what most developers are using
06:41 packages?
06:41 wahanui well, packages is at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian
06:42 shiva KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/koha-conf.xml PERL5LIB=/usr/share/koha/lib /usr/share/koha/bin/migrat​ion_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -a -r -v
06:42 mtj shiva, read that ^^
06:42 drojf i thought the »official« livedvd uses packages
06:42 shiva: where did you get the koha dvd?
06:42 and good morning #koha
06:43 shiva OSSlab
06:43 person
06:44 mtj drojf, i would be very happy, if you were right :)
06:44 shiva how to install zebra
06:45 mtj from what shiva has pasted…. it does not look like a pkg install (to me)
06:45 christophe_c joined #koha
06:45 magnuse /etc/koha/koha-conf.xml is not packages, no
06:45 christophe_c hello koha
06:46 magnuse bonjour christophe_c
06:46 christophe_c salut magnuse ;-)
06:46 shiva that is command given by friend
06:46 to start zebra
06:47 drojf it is another livedvd. and it apparently uses git, since the path is /opt/kohaclone. sorry, i don't know the dvd, maybe osslabs can help you better with that
06:47 magnuse shiva: that command you gave above will do a full reindexing of your records
06:48 shiva ok
06:48 how do i know whether zebra has installed or not
06:48 magnuse and search does not work after you have executed that command?
06:48 try "ps aux | grep zebra"
06:49 shiva 1000     27124  0.0  0.0   4368   836 pts/0    R+   12:19   0:00 grep --color=auto zebra
06:50 mtj drojf, looks like the first 'offical' koha dvd, has not been released yet
06:50 shiva this is I got
06:50 mtj http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]ive_DVD_Blueprint
06:50 magnuse shiva: that was the only output of "ps aux | grep zebra"?
06:52 paul_p joined #koha
06:52 drojf mtj: i thought there was one before that. maybe it was not "official" ^^

06:53 shiva ok
06:53 marcelr joined #koha
06:54 marcelr hi #koha
06:54 magnuse shiva: if that was the only output, then zebra is not running

06:54 marcelr hi drojf magnuse
06:54 * cait waves
06:54 shiva what should i do
06:54 marcelr and cait :)
06:54 magnuse shiva: try "ls /etc/init.d/koha*"
06:54 mtj drojf, yeah…. many many Koha livecd/livedvds, none official,  (and none using Koha packages?)
06:56 first offical koha livedvd to be released on 22 may, running 3.12 -> http://lists.katipo.co.nz/publ[…]March/035654.html
06:57 shiva ls: cannot access /etc/init.d/koha: No such file or directory
06:58 for this command  "ls /etc/init.d/koha"
06:58 drojf i know it is not very friendly, but if people hand out their selfbuilt dvds i'd like them to do the support too
06:58 in the end it is "koha sucks" if it does not work
06:58 shiva yes selfbuilt dvds
06:58 magnuse shiva: you missed a * at the end: "ls /etc/init.d/koha*"
06:58 shiva ok
06:59 uaslibrary@uaslibrary:~$ ls /etc/init.d/koha* /etc/init.d/koha-sip-daemon  /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon
07:00 i got like this......./etc/init.d/koha-sip-daemon  /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon

07:02 Joubu salut
07:02 wahanui hey, Joubu
07:03 magnuse shiva: cool. could you do a "ls -l /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon" too?
07:04 mtj shiva, you need to tell us where you downloaded your livedvd from
07:05 shiva its selfbuilt livedvd
07:05 lds joined #koha
07:06 shiva i got result something like this...........

07:08 drojf i assume it is http://www.osslabs.biz/koha/livecd
07:08 magnuse hm, root eh?
07:09 i'm thinking "sudo /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon start" is worth a try then - anyone got a better idea?
07:10 mtj yes, i have...
07:10 dont use that livecd, install koha using the debian packages
07:11 or - use that livecd… but ask osslabs to help you, if you have problems with it
07:11 shiva no ubuntu
07:11 12.4 version
07:12 i got result something like this...........

07:14 magnuse yeah, that does not look good
07:14 drojf that unknown user thing does not look too great ^^
07:14 magnuse nope
07:14 drojf my guess is the dvd is not properly configured
07:14 magnuse sounds like it
07:17 shiva what could be the problem

07:22 drojf shiva: all we could do is guess. you are using a custom livedvd not available to the public. you have to explain your problems to the person that made the dvd and ask for help there. we can't assist with an installation we know nothing about. at least i can't.
07:24 mtj shiva, if you really must use a live dvd/cd, look here -> http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_LiveCD
07:24 and here -> http://sourceforge.net/projects/kohalivecd-lite/
07:24 that is probably the best livedvd available, currently , for koha
07:25 koha 3.10.00, installed via packages
07:25 shiva thanks
07:26 magnuse rangi: could you perhaps remove what <panitaliemom> just "said" from the logs?
07:26 mtj shiva, if you download/install that - we can help you...
07:26 drojf »Live CDs and DVDs should not be used to run a library. These are not  officially supported by Koha, and any difficulties should be taken up  with the creator of them. «
07:26 ^^
07:29 shiva ok
07:30 mtj vimal++ those 2 livedvds look pretty good
07:30 'Koha installation based on Ubuntu packages, it means easy to upgrade Koha using two commands.'

10:00 vfernandes how to correct install zh-Hans-CN language in Koha 3.10?
10:01 it gives so many errors in OPAC
10:02 cait vfernandes: best would be to fix the errors in pootle, then download the po files from there
10:02 vfernandes cait i don't know chinese :D but it's a demand from the client
10:03 cait i guess it's syntax errors
10:03 when you can't figure out the missing %s or the like, you could blank the line or mark it fuzzy
10:03 rangi vfernandes: does the client know chinese? make them do it
10:03 vfernandes besides of that 3.10 has 90000 words in pt-PT but in zh-Hans-CN there is only 9000
10:03 gerundio hi, has anyone ever experienced apache seg faults when a given perl module is active?
10:03 rangi its a bit unrealistic to expect someone who doesnt know chinese to fix it
10:04 vfernandes I already told them to do it :P
10:04 but isn't strange to be only 9000 words?
10:04 cait vfernandes: maybe it's not counting it right - becasue you don't have spaces between words in chinese i think
10:04 or you might, I don't speak chinese, but I think it could be a language thing
10:05 vfernandes but the words count aren't from the original (en) language?
10:06 cait not sure
10:06 the counting in pootle is werid
10:07 maybe open files in poedit and check there
10:07 i think poedit counts entries, or check how many msg things in the po files between normal and chinese
10:07 vfernandes ok thanks cait

12:37 marcelr saw your patch on utf8
12:37 interesting:)
12:37 jenkins_koha Starting build #4 for job Koha_3.12.x (previous build: SUCCESS)
12:37 tcohen yes, wanted to talk about it
12:37 marcelr ?
12:38 tcohen I'd like to document the different data flows that happen inside Koha, so its clearer where do we need to decode/encode
12:38 huginn New commit(s) kohagit: Merge branch 'bug_9997' into 3.14-master <http://git.koha-community.org/[…]b815ee78a5002f1ea> / Bug 9997 - Suspected typo in patron self registration code <http://git.koha-community.org/[…]c1d8690645c5397f2> / Merge branch 'bug_9737' into 3.14-master <http://git.koha-community.org/[…]=commitdiff;h=c19
12:39 tcohen from the templates, to the browser, from the database, etc
12:39 marcelr tcohen: we should get rid of the deeper decodes in modules and so..
12:39 one point is using CGI with -utf8
12:39 tcohen exactly, I wrapped (as gmcharlt suggested) CGI inside Koha::CGI
12:39 marcelr our approach is now hybrid
12:40 tcohen and added param_decode_utf8 method
12:40 that could tackle the CGI front
12:40 but others remain
12:40 marcelr can you use -utf8 inside your module
12:40 tcohen they suggest not to do it
12:41 marcelr why not (binary argument)?
12:41 is there any binary upload in koha?
12:42 this discussion is also on the bug 6554 and its dependents

12:42 marcelr why so?
12:43 jcamins marcelr: I hadn't realized quite how high risk that patch was.
12:44 marcelr i think we covered it quite
12:44 cait joined #koha
12:46 * cait waves from a train... :)
12:46 * jcamins waves back
12:46 marcelr jcamins: it is a difficult choice: reverting it means getting back the old problems
12:47 jcamins marcelr: yeah, but string freeze is 2 weeks away, and we had the old set of problems for months.
12:47 If not years.
12:47 marcelr true
12:48 a solution should go in one day
12:48 * libsysguy heard jcamins was going to push everyones patches regardless of stability
12:48 jcamins The code would remain in master, so that would be another six months to get it actually working.
12:48 libsysguy: that was the other strategy I considered. :P
12:48 marcelr well, i would understand it but do not prefer to revert..
12:51 cait are we talking about the refernce bug?
12:51 jcamins No.
12:51 cait well... are you talking and I am just showing up from a train... :)
12:51 jcamins That's not on the table.
12:51 Bug 6554
12:51 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6554 critical, P3, ---, dpavlin, Passed QA , Resolve encoding problems with corrected UTF8 handling in templates
12:51 cait ah
12:51 it's causing problems?
12:51 marcelr no
12:52 jcamins It has had some side-effects, and I'm concerned that we might not catch them all prior to 3.12.
12:52 marcelr it is more about the possibility of..
12:52 tcohen give us a couple of days jcamins
12:52 marcelr jcamins: there is a lot of code more in Koha already with side-effects etc. not completely caught..
12:52 jcamins marcelr: of course.
12:52 But that doesn't mean I should make it worse.
12:53 cait the side effects are worse tha bad display?
12:53 marcelr this is better code than is in now
12:53 cait I mean, does it break functionality?
12:53 jcamins cait: well, we end up with translated text not showing up in random places.
12:54 cait ew
12:54 that's quite a step back... but at least it owuld make it easy to spot the places... in theory that is
12:54 jcamins Yeah, perfect for master.
12:54 marcelr these places are easy to spot
12:54 most have been covered..
12:55 cait I thik it all started with a bug
12:55 marcelr :)
12:55 cait in patron search
12:55 where dobrica had problems to make the ames show up
12:55 jcamins: would you be able to give them ... a deadline before you pull out?
12:55 and given we see some progress it could remain
12:56 jcamins Sure...
12:56 cait i don't know how much time you will have for a thing like that
12:56 jcamins next Friday sound good?
12:56 cait I will be testing master a lot next wek
12:56 week
12:56 once I am donw with this presentation and we will be testing in german
12:56 marcelr cait: currently we have no problems pending for this area
12:56 cait so when I work with updated po files that shoudl be complete... I should be able to help spotting, that right?
12:56 marcelr it is just the risk of forgetting one
12:56 cait so everything that was found is now in master?
12:57 marcelr or in the queue
12:57 jcamins No, there are several follow-ups that I've been considering pushing.
12:57 Which is why I said something.
12:57 marcelr signed or passed qa
12:57 cait oly 373 out of 2100 are academic libraries... interesting (referring to lib-web-cats and koha)
12:58 marcelr: the referece bug is a bit monstrous now too :)
12:58 marcelr monstrous?
12:58 cait marcelr: I think it was by design to only display one callnumber for each
12:58 marcelr sounds odd to me
12:58 cait marcelr: because we for example have individual callnumbers for each item around here
12:58 think serials
12:58 with 120 items with unique callnumbers
12:59 marcelr fun
12:59 cait it's always been like that
12:59 the result list would be exploding
12:59 jcamins The idea was that any call number is better than none.
12:59 cait sorry that I can't test right now - I know commeting from the sideline is a bit weird
12:59 marcelr we could revert everything :)
12:59 jcamins marcelr: that'd be the safest.
12:59 cait just really have to put the last touches on those slides and survive tomorrow :)
13:00 we revert back to 3.10? :P
13:00 marcelr 3.8
13:00 safe version
13:00 jcamins 3.6 was more stable. :P
13:00 cait that would go a bit far, don't you think?
13:00 jcamins 3.8 was a bit messy.
13:01 marcelr cait: maybe we need more prefs for these call numbers :)
13:01 Dani joined #koha
13:01 cait marcelr: i like prefs ;)
13:01 * jcamins won't be reverting it, because being RM should have _some_ perqs (and I've been running clients with a similar patch for years).
13:02 cait but I would really like a way to restore the behaviour that we got now (in stable 3.6) for the libraires somehow
13:02 because I don't want them to complain at me :)
13:03 marcelr i will move my followups somewhere else from bug 9995

13:03 jcamins No, that's a good place for them.
13:03 cait marcelr: i love that you took the time to clean that code up - I really appreaciate that
13:03 only the little thing with the callnumbers is worrying me
13:03 marcelr cait: well i think now that i wasted my time
13:04 cait :(
13:04 marcelr on 6554 and 9995 :)
13:05 cait I am not sure how we can continue
13:05 maybe I really need to find time to take a look at all that and we could get a switch for the callnumbers?
13:05 marcelr starting with patch of kyle only
13:05 i will let it pass qa
13:05 cait hm
13:05 are you ok with that?
13:06 marcelr np
13:06 jcamins marcelr: 6554 is going to be in 3.14 regardless.
13:06 marcelr 3.14 is far away
13:06 jcamins And I like the idea of 9995 with a syspref.
13:06 marcelr :)
13:06 cait marcelr: I am really sorry for being so difficult
13:06 I think you have valid points about that code
13:07 marcelr i move my stuff somehwere else and come back later on it..
13:07 in 3.22
13:07 jcamins marcelr: if it makes you feel any better, that's how I feel about Koha development as well.
13:07 marcelr too bad
13:07 you end up with so many reports finished half..
13:08 jcamins Also, what I was saying wasn't on the table was reverting bug 5079, not bug 9995.

13:09 marcelr mean=good
13:09 in testing
13:09 cait I have noticed that you have a lot sitting in bugzilla right now
13:10 marcelr the circulation stuff is now quite important for us
13:10 but that is 3.14 or later
13:10 cait yes, talking abou tthat

13:24 * druthb wishes the extra caits would stick around.  We could always use more cait.
13:26 cait hmpf
13:30 * magnuse agrees with druthb
13:31 druthb thank you, magnuse.  I was hoping we could get to some sort of community consensus on that.
13:31 magnuse add it to the agenda for the next meeting?
13:31 cait you 2 are impossible .P
13:32 druthb I'm not impossible, merely improbable.
13:34 magnuse hehe
13:36 libsysguy holy cow http://www.theatlanticwire.com[…]waco-texas/64337/
13:38 cait oh tcohen
13:38 I got a question for you
13:38 tcohen tell me
13:38 cait you work at an academic library, right? a university? I am looking for big university libraries using koha right now and need some numbers :)
13:39 tcohen we don't have a central library, but 38 independent libraries
13:39 this uinversity has 120K students
13:40 cait i love it already :)
13:40 are all independent libraries using koha?
13:40 or only some?
13:40 and one central installation or each individual?
13:40 tcohen individual installs, on the same server, centrally managed
13:41 there are two libraries that have their own IT staff and their own install
13:41 but pulling from our SVN deployment scripts
13:41 cait ah
13:42 so students have an account in each of the libraries?
13:42 tcohen for now, they do
13:42 talljoy joined #koha
13:43 cait :) how big are the libraries?
13:43 tcohen we've recently set a big LDAP service as backend for an Identity Provider
13:43 (OpenID, SAML/Shibboleth) which we plan to use soon with Koha too
13:44 measured how?
13:44 cait oh nice :)
13:44 hm, volumes maybe?
13:44 but yah, measuring libraries is hard
13:45 tcohen the biggest has 80K bibliographic records
13:45 cait I am trying to compose a slide for the people that say koah is only for small instutions/libraries
13:45 tcohen not that big
13:46 cait still a nice size
13:46 ours are between 30-80.0000 too i think
13:46 tcohen i've set a demo site for a 1.5M records library (spain) which scaled well
13:47 but cannot disclose more info :-P
13:47 cait yeah I think volumes are not the problem
13:47 that needs disk space
13:47 more interesting how much circulation, staff etc.
13:47 so if anyone has good ideas... :)
13:48 right now I am tryding to find numbes on some french university websites... but that's not so easy
13:49 tcohen: what is your official name? I could still say 38 libraries and 120.000 sstudents total, right?
13:49 tcohen yes
13:49 Universidad Nacional de Córdoba

13:51 cait thx :)
13:57 jcamins It's a wonder anyone ever manages to do anything with the serials module.
13:58 cait tsk
13:58 it's not so bad
13:58 jcamins Really?
13:59 druthb Really.  *way* simpler than Symphony.
13:59 jcamins I just wanted to mark some missing issues as arrived.
13:59 druthb and it *works better* than Symphony, as scary as that may sound to you.
13:59 jcamins It turns out you do that on a page which is not linked to by the main serials page.
14:00 tcohen found it jcamins, marcelr

14:00 jcamins If you're viewing a subscription, it would seem you can't edit previously received issues without going through an extraneous, only nominally related page.

14:04 tcohen that line is the one that messes with encodings
14:04 jcamins And I just updated the branches on git.k-c.org
14:06 cait jcamins: I think you want to use the serial collection link on the left from the subscription details
14:06 someone speaking french?
14:06 * cait would really like to find out some numbes about aix marseille and rennes...
14:06 chris_n joined #koha
14:06 tcohen we need to document where encoding and decoding should happen
14:06 because now I know what line messes with encodings, I cannot be sure removing it won't have other side effects!

14:47 jcamins However, I lost interest in finding out what that meant before I got through the "Rachel -- Relationship with Ross" section.
14:48 cait heh
14:48 it's difficult
14:48 oleonard I understand the reference but I don't understand how Koha wronged @zackosborne
14:49 Koha thought it and @zackosborne was on a break and installed itself on someone else's server?
14:49 magnuse hehe
14:50 jcamins oleonard: my takeaway from what I read of that section was that probably @zackosborne never told Koha how much it meant to him, so Koha went and provided a superior to ILS to many other libraries instead.
14:50 tcohen bgkriegel: i get no warnings in my box...
14:51 bgkriegel ok, recheck

16:08 oleonard Did we really intend for the patron to be able to submit a change to their home library from the OPAC?
16:08 We never allowed this before the patron self-registration feature
16:10 jcamins oleonard: probably not?
16:10 oleonard that's my guess
16:12 gmcharlt unless the original patch was thinking in terms of home library == just the preferred pickup library?
16:13 agreed that we don't want to let patrons change their home library willy-nilly, but preferred pickup library is a different matter
16:13 oleonard It makes sense for the new patron to be able to set a home library, but I'm not sure libraries would like that to be able to be changed after the fact?
16:13 I don't know.
16:14 I'm thinking we should simply exclude it from being able to be hidden by  PatronSelfRegistrationBorrowerUnwantedField in the case of new registrations
16:14 That way the library can hide it from updates if they want to without it disappearing from the new registration form
16:17 gmcharlt oleonard: maybe morph it into two sysprefs -- uwanted (or better, wanted?) fields for new registrations vs. updates?
16:18 oleonard That makes a lot of sense (and would make the template rather complicated :P )
16:21 ...not that it isn't already...
16:21 gmcharlt spitballing -- move some of the complexity into the script, then have the template just run a loop to display the form elements specified by the script
16:22 oleonard Hard to manage labels that way, but doable
16:24 gmcharlt more extreme spitballing -- move labels to a template does nothing but set template variables with the label text; easy enough to generate predictable names for the variables based on the database column names
16:24 bonus: make it easier to have fields be labelled consistently
16:27 jcamins gmcharlt: and then we'll be already to use Catalyst's form generator?
16:27 *all ready
16:28 gmcharlt presumably -- I like form generators (as long as one recognizes that sometimes one has to write a form manually in order to have better usability)
16:28 jcamins I actually do not like form generators, generally.
16:28 oleonard jcamins: Catalyst's form generator?
16:28 tcohen gmcharlt: how does it sound "Extend CGI to provide a param_utf8_decode method"?
16:28 jcamins oleonard: let me find an example.
16:29 oleonard: http://search.cpan.org/~nwiger[…]in/FormBuilder.pm
16:29 gmcharlt tcohen: sounds reasonable
16:30 oleonard Oh, I thought you meant Catalyst as in CatalystIT
16:30 jcamins Nope.
16:30 gmcharlt oleonard: "New Zealanders lovingly supplying hand-crafted web forms"? ;)
16:30 jcamins I just thought that gmcharlt's suggestion sounded like a move in that direction.
16:30 gmcharlt++ # I always import my web forms from NZ
16:31 gmcharlt jcamins: it is indeed; certainly at least as a way to helping to promote more consistency
16:31 oleonard "Sorry the web site is delayed because a storm hit our steam ship in the Pacific"
16:32 * gmcharlt realizes that if Koha were to adopt Catalyst, that would mean I'd have to juggle three different Catalysts in my mind
16:32 oleonard What's the other one?
16:32 wahanui the other one is that the passwords would be created on each individual machine.
16:33 jcamins The CatalystIT that does EG work.
16:33 tcohen: wouldn't it make more sense to just override ->param altogether?
16:33 gmcharlt wahanui: forget the other one

16:34 tcohen i'm not sure we are decoding everything we read from params jcamins
16:35 jcamins tcohen: it seems to me that anywhere that we are depending on _not_ getting valid UTF-8, there is a problem.
16:36 tcohen i'll change the method name and see if everything breaks
16:36 gmcharlt jcamins: MARC file uploads and patron imagess, you mean?
16:36 jcamins gmcharlt: if we use ->param() for those, I think we have bigger problems.
16:37 As I understand it, HTTP parameters are limited to fairly small strings.
16:37 gmcharlt jcamins: indeed, but just noting things to be checked during testing
16:37 jcamins Of course.
16:38 gmcharlt but note that params can come in via POST, and don't have to be small </pedantic>

18:46 jatara is there a way to currently run a report in Koha that returns that a list of borrowers who owe money? i'm not too sure the sample sql query in the reports library works well since it seems to pull from the amount in the "amount outstanding"column and not "total due"
18:50 jcamins jatara: amountoutstanding = amount currently owed
18:50 total due = amount billed
18:51 I think.
18:55 maximep hmmm I have a page called "cash register stats" that shows all fines/payments/etc. Pretty sure i'm going to share it soon

19:08 jatara jcamins: should they be one and the same?
19:09 tcohen jcamins, is there a reason Auth.pm doesn't include Output.pm?
19:09 jcamins jatara: it depends if a fine has been paid.
19:09 tcohen (besides the fact that it shouldnt, of course :-P)
19:09 jcamins tcohen: there is. Since C4::Output depends on C4::Auth, you need to use require.
19:10 tcohen the docs make me think it was in the past, and has been removed
19:10 maybe for removing circular dependencies
19:10 jcamins Yup.
19:11 jatara people look at the "total due" field to determine if someone owes money...why wouldn't it reflect what's currently owed?
19:11 tcohen so, for 3.12, and the 6554 thing
19:11 do u prefer I patch it so it works, including C4::Output or not?
19:12 jcamins If you use "require" at the smallest possible context, I'm fine with judiciously re-cycling C4.
19:12 tcohen basically i have to patch every script that prints to STDOUT without using output_html_with_http_headers
19:12 jcamins The alternative is broken encodings.
19:13 tcohen the alternative is leaving the code as-is (print $query.... ) but encoding data first
19:13 take a look at bug 10074
19:13 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=10074 major, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, Signed Off , Encoding problems in templates
19:13 tcohen that patch implements the approach
19:14 otherwise, I use output_html_with_http_headers
19:14 jcamins Hm.
19:14 tcohen on InstallerAuth.pm i can, because it is included right now
19:15 jcamins Right.
19:15 tcohen (InstallerAuth.pm would have been easier to test with the language thing :-P)
19:15 so, which u prefer?
19:16 jcamins I think I would favor require C4::Output right where you are doing the encode + output_html_with_http_headers.
19:16 tcohen ok, I'll require C4::Output then
19:16 jcamins Really the actual printing should be moved to Koha::Output or something and not depend on anything other than CGI.
19:16 But that's not a short-term fix.
19:17 ie--
19:17 tcohen ie?
19:17 wahanui it has been said that ie is down 28...keep 'em coming.
19:18 jcamins I'm using IE instead of a usable browser right now.
19:18 Even on IE9, :before and :after are just broken.
19:19 tcohen hmm, Output doesn't use Auth
19:19 jcamins Really?
19:19 Then I got confused.
19:21 Probably still a good idea to use require, since that makes the source of that function explicit.

19:45 (you mentioned it in the morning)
19:46 jcamins tcohen: you found a problem in the installer and Karam reported problems with user names in titles.
19:46 tcohen i've found a pattern, which I saw only on installer/InstallAuth.pm and C4/Auth.pm
19:46 jcamins I use English almost exclusively, so I haven't particularly noticed problems.
19:46 tcohen there are to battle fronts:
19:46 - what comes from CGI parameters
19:47 - what we output
19:47 oleonard rambutan++ # I still can't bring myself to read the article though
19:47 tcohen the second one, is the one i've been tackling the las hour
19:47 cait me niether, no time right now
19:47 tcohen found that output_html_with_http_headers was working fine, and places where translations seemed broken
19:48 were those that did print directly
19:48 ; those are patched
19:48 what is not covered is UTF-8 input decoding
19:49 which is done on each place we find it is needed (hence the CGI->param overriding idea)

20:03 druthb I'm thinking if cait goes to KohaCon, I'd better not.  She's gonna kick my butt.
20:03 cait ?
20:04 tcohen why such violence cait?
20:04 gp5st jcamins: hello. I'm having trouble setting up a koha instance using an old database.  I had a 3.0 db. I imported it into mysql, then ran koha-update-to-3.4 and it said it updated it to 3.8.11 but when I navigate to the website I get a maintence page and a lot of logs complaining about a missing system_preferences table(I uses koha-upgrade-schema, koha-create and koha-enable after i had the db upgraded)
20:04 druthb I'm mean to her.
20:04 jcamins gp5st: you need to run koha-upgrade-schema
20:04 gp5st sorry, the inet here is so crappy i don't even know if that got through before
20:04 jcamins Both of them.
20:05 gp5st jcamins: i had done that
20:05 jcamins (i.e. koha-update-to-3.4 and koha-upgrade-schema)
20:05 gp5st i did that
20:05 see the end of the post
20:05 jcamins Hm.
20:05 So koha-upgrade-schema you ran *after* loading the database?
20:06 And the database was workking on your 3.0 installation?
20:06 * tcohen runs for his thursday tennis match
20:06 gp5st fwiw it gives a metric ton of warmings, most of which are: Use of uninitialized value in numeric lt (<) at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/ins​taller/data/mysql/updatedatabase.pl line 5282, <FILE> chunk 69.
20:06 Upgrade to 3.08.06.000 (3.8.6 release) done
20:06 jcamins: yes, the 3.0 system was all working
20:06 druthb oleonard, jcamins:  http://www.librarygeekgirl.net[…]ng-KUDOSCon11.pdf
20:06 jcamins Okay.
20:06 I think your 3.0 data was loaded into the wrong database.
20:06 gp5st i rand upgrade-to-3.4 then upgrade-scheme, then created and enabled the library
20:07 jcamins When you ran koha-create you probably wiped your data.
20:07 gp5st jcamins: no, it's the same one identified in the site config for this koha install
20:07 hmm
20:07 jcamins The first step is koha-create, then you load the data, then you run the upgrade scripts.
20:07 Because those errors are what you'd get if you had an empty database.
20:07 gp5st ah. well let me try this again
20:07 jcamins Or, I suppose, an incomplete backup.
20:07 gp5st if it wiped my db though, why didn't it put in the tables it needs?
20:08 jcamins Because koha-create does not install any data.
20:08 You have to go through the web installer.
20:08 By design.
20:08 gp5st when i did create, i used the --use-db param, though
20:08 jcamins You have to make more choices than could reasonably be stuck on a command line.
20:09 koha-upgrade-schema only works with an existing instance.
20:09 gp5st yes, you're right, i have the order backwards
20:09 i trued to upgrade, but it required an instance
20:09 * jcamins will have to leave this for someone else to troubleshoot, as he's leaving shortly, though.
20:10 gp5st maybe i should just leave and come back and do this when the day doesn't suck so much and i don't have terrible sinus pressure
20:10 thanks jcamins
20:11 oh, hmm, the sqldump specifies the db name inside it, that's no good and probably the root of a lot of this

21:48 sammy Hello, good day to you all
21:48 Please I need help with my KOHA installation
21:48 wizzyrea we can try to help
21:48 go ahead :)
21:48 Guest2748 thanks
21:48 The problem is with the zebra server
21:49 I cannot get it to work
21:49 wizzyrea searching faq?
21:49 wahanui searching faq is at http://koha-community.org/documentation/faq/
21:50 wizzyrea you'll have to scroll down to the bottom
21:50 Guest2748 Yes, I have searched and eaven google so many records but yet I have not succeeded in making it work
21:51 I have tried that but yet no success
21:51 the zebra server is not running
21:51 cait joined #koha
21:52 rangi what version of koha, how did you install it, and what OS ?
21:52 Guest2748 3.10, I installed using the debian package
21:53 debian squeeze
21:53 wahanui rumour has it debian squeeze is recommended for koha
21:53 rangi so apt-get install koha-common ?
21:53 trea joined #koha
21:53 rangi debian?
21:53 wahanui somebody said debian was what most people use and there are good manuals and even packages for that
21:53 rangi packages
21:53 wahanui it has been said that packages is at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian
21:53 rangi following those instructions exactly ?
21:54 Guest2748 yes,
21:54 rangi cos then zebra will just work, you shouldnt have to do anything and that faq, plus most googles are to do with tarball or git installs so are not right
21:54 so what is the exact error you are getting when you start zebra?
21:54 sudo /etc/init.d/koha-common restart
21:54 Guest2748 that's why I dont know what the problem is
21:55 ok, let me try the command, thanks
21:55 rangi we wont know either unless you can paste in the exact error :-)
21:55 tsbere joined #koha
21:56 Guest2748 I ran the command, I got thismessage: Restarting Koha ILS: daemonexecutablenameStopping Zebra server for koha  daemon: fatal: failed to stop the koha-koha-zebra daemon: No such process  Starting Zebra server for koha
21:57 rangi ps axf | grep "zebrasrv"
21:57 what output does that give you
21:57 Guest2748 this is the result:  7732 pts/0    S+     0:00          \_ grep zebrasrv
21:59 rangi right so its not running still, are you sure nothing went wrong when you installed the packages?
21:59 Guest2748 Everything was fine, though I am not an expert,
22:00 rangi and everything else is working, its just zebra not?
22:00 Guest2748 yes, everything else is working
22:02 rangi is there anything in /var/log/koha/instancename/zebra-error.log ?
22:03 (swap instancename for the name you picked when doing koha-create)

22:14 rangi i suspect that is the problem
22:14 try making an instance called something else
22:15 Guest2748 ok, so you suggest a re-installation?
22:15 rangi no
22:15 just do a
22:16 sudo koha-create somethingelse
22:16 Guest2748 ok please let me continue to follow you as you guide, I will do this now
22:16 rangi but i suspect it being called koha has meant the directories didn't get made properly
22:16 sudo koha-create --create-db somethingbutnotkoha
22:17 Guest2748 I will use efcclib, is this oksy
22:17 rangi yep
22:17 Guest2748 ok, let me start now
22:17 rangi then just work through the web isntaller etc
22:18 Guest2748 root@sam2:~# sudo koha-create efcclib  Usage: /usr/sbin/koha-create [--create-db|--request-db|--populate-db|--use-db] [--marcflavor marc21|normarc|unimarc] [--zebralang en|nb|fr] [--defaultsql /path/to/some.sql] [--configfile /path/to/config] [--passwdfile /path/to/passwd] [--database database] [--adminuser n] instancename
22:18 rangi sudo koha-create --create-db efcclib
22:19 Guest2748 ok, thanks
22:19 root@sam2:~# sudo koha-create --create-db efcclib  User efcclib-koha already exists.
22:20 rangi sudo koha-remove efcclib
22:20 then try again
22:21 Guest2748 ok, thanks
22:21 root@sam2:~# sudo koha-remove efcclib  Koha configuration directory for instance "efcclib" does not exist, please specify a valid Koha instance
22:22 rangi hmm at this point it might be better to start again clean, do exactly what you did last time
22:22 and but do not call the instance koha :)
22:23 Guest2748 That is to re-install or create another instance, like efccacad
22:23 rangi lets try just another instance first to check that it works ok, if it does, you might wnat to start over so you have a nice clean one
22:24 Guest2748 ok, let me try another instance efccacad
22:24 rangi ok
22:25 Guest2748 root@sam2:~# sudo koha-create --create-db efccacad  ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'debian-sys-maint'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
22:26 rangi weird, i dont know how you managed to create the first instance then?
22:27 cait1 joined #koha
22:28 eythian hi
22:28 wahanui hola, eythian
22:28 Guest2748 OK, do I start everything all over again, so I can install once again following the steps in the url you gave earlier?
22:28 rangi that might be the best idea
22:28 Guest2748 http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian
22:29 so how do I uninstall the current installation?
22:31 rangi do you have anything else on that server?
22:32 Guest2748 yes
22:32 rangi sudo apt-get purge koha-common
22:32 Guest2748 I installed DSPACE too which is working perfectly
22:32 Please I will need you to guide me as I do this... do I start now?
22:33 rangi im sorry I have to get back to my job now
22:33 Guest2748 ok, thanks for your help
22:34 I hope someone else will continue from where you stop
