00:00 | cait1 | hmthat's a weird thing |
00:00 | wizzyrea | javascript disabled? |
00:00 | jcamins | I can't reach my keyboard anymore. |
00:00 | wizzyrea | how are you typing? |
00:01 | peggy | With the handle of his spoon? |
00:01 | jcamins | Hehe. |
00:01 | I was bending almost double. | |
00:01 | * wizzyrea | will be impressed if he's typing with his toes, or by thinking |
00:01 | jcamins | The other 75cm exercise ball... not 75cm. |
00:02 | More like... 110cm. | |
00:02 | My legs were on level with the keyboard. | |
00:03 | onezero joined #koha | |
00:03 | jcamins | Okay, maybe I'll use a pyrex, and then cut the shortbread. |
00:05 | cait1 | pyrex? |
00:05 | jcamins | Glassware. |
00:05 | For baking. | |
00:08 | NateC joined #koha | |
00:09 | dcook | Chemistry in general, no? ;) |
00:09 | cait1 | oh |
00:10 | wizzyrea | pyrex is oven/stovetop safe glassware. Tempered or some such. |
00:11 | peggy joined #koha | |
00:12 | cait1 | thx jcamins and wizzyrea |
00:12 | :) | |
00:16 | good night all :) | |
00:16 | cait1 left #koha | |
00:17 | wizzyrea | gnite cait |
00:22 | jcamins | wizzyrea: when making shortbread, should you have a dough or a loosely mixed pile of crumbs? |
00:23 | wizzyrea | are you going to roll it? |
00:23 | * wizzyrea | has always had dough |
00:23 | wizzyrea | but like, pie crust, if you squeeze it it comes together into dough |
00:24 | jcamins | Yeah, I just wanted to confirm that I was supposed to squeeze it together. |
00:24 | wizzyrea | so if yours does that, it's probably fine |
00:24 | yea, that seems right. you'd have shortbread crumbs otherwise. :) | |
00:24 | jcamins | Thanks. |
00:29 | peggy | Does koha-remove work? |
00:31 | dcook | Hmm, does anyone know if the default overdue triggers work if there are triggers for individual libraries set? |
00:31 | peggy: As far as I know, but I don't think I've ever tried it | |
00:31 | jcamins | peggy: work for what? |
00:31 | If you mean in general, yes, I use it all the time. | |
00:32 | peggy | I think I need to uninstall Koha and the start again from the beginning. |
00:33 | dcook | Ah, that command removes an instance, not the total program |
00:33 | jcamins | dcook: right. |
00:33 | dcook | jcamins: In terms of the deb command or the overdues? :p |
00:33 | jcamins | The deb command. |
00:34 | I want to bake something else. | |
00:34 | * dcook | thinks that he should've asked his overdue question when cait was still arouhnd |
00:35 | dcook | around* |
00:35 | peggy: What are you trying to do? | |
00:36 | peggy | I have hosed my computer. I've tried checking out the master, gitifying and whatever I type in Koha goes straight to the Search the Catalog tab. |
00:36 | Something is seriously wrong. I have nothing I want to save. I just want it to work again so I can do some debugging | |
00:36 | eythian | this sounds like a browser issue, not a koha issue. |
00:37 | wizzyrea | dcook my understanding is that the overdue triggers are default, unless there are branch triggers set |
00:38 | peggy | I'm using iceweasel |
00:39 | wizzyrea | do you have javascript disabled? |
00:39 | eythian | what do you mean by "whatever you type"? |
00:39 | dcook | And what's the "Search the catalog" tab? Staff client? OPAC? |
00:39 | eythian | Can you explain in terrible gueling detail? |
00:39 | *greuling | |
00:39 | dcook | hehee |
00:39 | eythian | or however you spell that |
00:39 | wizzyrea | grueling* |
00:40 | dcook | wizzyrea: I get this message when I run the overdues "Found 7 branches with first message enabled:" |
00:40 | wizzyrea | helping? |
00:40 | wahanui | I'M HELPING!!!!! |
00:40 | dcook | No reference at all to the default branch that I can see.. |
00:40 | wizzyrea | do you have 7 branches with first message enabled? |
00:40 | peggy | I try to create a new patron. My cursor is in the surname field. I type a 'T'. It appears in the top entry box in the search the catalog tab (the one that lets you choose between checkin, checkout, and search the catalog. |
00:40 | jcamins | It's 7:40pm, and I really want to bake something. |
00:41 | wizzyrea | brownies |
00:41 | wahanui | brownies are a lie. |
00:41 | wizzyrea | pft. |
00:41 | peggy | If I choose the checkout tab and type a 'T' it switches to the search the catalog tab and puts the T in there. |
00:41 | wizzyrea | clear your browser cache? |
00:41 | peggy | jcamins, aren't you making cookies? |
00:41 | eythian | that's pretty odd. Does this happen on all fields and pages? Have you restarted your browser, cleared cache, cookies, etc? |
00:41 | jcamins | peggy: I am, yes. |
00:42 | I have a bit of buttermilk. | |
00:42 | wizzyrea | have you tried it in another browser on your machine besides iceweasel? (not that it should matter, but still) |
00:42 | dcook | wizzyrea: I do. Here's the thing I'm wondering...Patron Category A has no notice defined for Branch A, but it does for Default. They receive no notices. This makes sense to me, since the branch should take precedence. However, if the branch takes precedence when notices are defined or not defined...it seems like default might only be used if there are no notices defined for any particular branch. |
00:42 | jcamins | And yogurt... |
00:42 | I could make a quickbread. Maybe some coffeecake. | |
00:43 | wizzyrea | that seems right to me |
00:43 | well no, it will use the default if there are no notices defined for a particular branch | |
00:43 | so if you have library A, with notices defined, and B with no notices | |
00:43 | dcook | Right. That makes sense |
00:43 | wizzyrea | B will use the default |
00:43 | A will use the branch ones. | |
00:44 | dcook | Although...what happens if you don't want any notices for Branch B... |
00:44 | I guess you could define a notice and have no delay...that could work | |
00:44 | wizzyrea | well you'd make the default no notices, and define notices for all branches? |
00:44 | eythian | hmm, maybe peggy was using web-based IRC... |
00:44 | wizzyrea | do note I haven't tried that. |
00:46 | dcook | eythian: Good call |
00:46 | wizzyrea: Makes sense to me in theory | |
00:46 | At the moment, I don't need true hard facts. Best guess is good enough. | |
00:48 | peggy joined #koha | |
01:00 | peggy | I'm giving up for tonight. jcamins, I hope you'll share your cookies! |
01:00 | thanks, everyone for the help. | |
01:27 | jcamins | The shortbread looks beautiful. |
01:28 | dcook | \o/ |
01:29 | * dcook | is debating whether to eat his packaged sandwiches or to grab laksa |
01:29 | dcook | I could also do both... |
01:29 | onezero joined #koha | |
01:32 | wizzyrea | \o/ |
01:36 | jcamins | And, as per usual, the coffeecake has risen over the topping. :D |
01:37 | wizzyrea | is that good? |
01:38 | jcamins | Eh. It'd probably be more attractive if I could get the topping to stay on top, but it's delicious either way. |
01:38 | dcook | All right. Gotta eat. brb |
01:40 | jcamins | Oh dear. |
01:40 | In fact, it rose right over the pan. | |
01:41 | dcook | cakecano! |
01:41 | fiery deliciousness | |
01:41 | jcamins | lol |
01:46 | dcook | Mmm, yummy sammiches |
01:50 | mtompset joined #koha | |
01:50 | mtompset | Greetings, #koha. |
01:51 | Anyone here know how to trigger issung slips? | |
01:53 | wizzyrea | do a circ, click print button on toolbar |
01:53 | (not in firefox, in the circ toolbar) | |
01:59 | mtompset | Thanks. |
01:59 | Next question... | |
01:59 | if I was generating news that goes on the slip based on branch... | |
01:59 | would it be branch of the user logged in, or branch of the patron? | |
02:00 | What do you think, wizzyrea? | |
02:01 | wizzyrea | oh branch of the circulating library |
02:01 | so logged in user | |
02:03 | mtompset | okay then... I think I can push up that patch then, amend the test plan, and go on my merry way. :) |
02:03 | Yes, the news by branch patch will affect slip printing. ;) | |
02:03 | wizzyrea | :) cool |
02:40 | mtompset | :( |
02:40 | I hate finding other bugs as a result of testing. | |
02:50 | eythian | http://www.indexdata.com/zebra[…]page=22&zoom=auto,0,697 <-- they may want to update their docs a bit. |
02:52 | wizzyrea | errrrrr |
02:56 | mtompset | eythian: They've probably hired programmers who don't know how to write documentation. It is a skillset, you know. :) |
02:56 | eythian | heh. I think it's more that it's just quite old and that aspect of it hasn't been updated. |
03:08 | mtompset | Perhaps... oh shoot! If I have an opac_news items for a branch, and I have deleted the branch, what should I do? what should have been done? |
03:09 | eythian | The news should have been deleted. If not, there's a constraint bug. |
03:11 | mtompset | Hmm... how about warning on deletion of the branch? |
03:11 | wizzyrea | why would you want to keep the news if you are deleting a branch/ |
03:13 | dcook | ^^ |
03:13 | eythian | yeah, that's why I figured just deleting the news is the best idea. |
03:15 | dcook | @quote123 |
03:15 | huginn | dcook: I'll give you the answer as soon as RDA is ready |

03:15 | huginn | wahanui: Quote #123: "rangi: #thingsihavelearnt if there is a mad scheme a library somewhere will be doing it ... except madder" (added by wizzyrea at 09:20 PM, March 30, 2011) |
03:15 | wahanui | ...but quote #123: "rangi: #thingsihavelearnt if there is <reply>... |
03:15 | huginn | wizzyrea: Quote #123: "rangi: #thingsihavelearnt if there is a mad scheme a library somewhere will be doing it ... except madder" (added by wizzyrea at 09:20 PM, March 30, 2011) |
03:16 | dcook | So much this |
03:16 | (Unrelated matter, perhaps) | |
03:16 | wizzyrea | we already ask for confirm on branch deletion |
03:16 | perhaps enumerating what will be deleted wouldn't hurt. | |
03:17 | but... still don't see why if you go through all of that, why one would get mad about news going away that was defined for the branch you just deleted. Wouldn't one expect that? | |
03:17 | eythian | yeah, I'd think that'd be totally normal. |
03:17 | Not deleting because there are items there, fair enough. You need to fix those. | |
03:17 | But news is no problem. | |
03:18 | wizzyrea | and if you start enumerating things that are to be deleted on branch deletion, people will get mad if something goes that wasn't warned about |
03:18 | so better to leave it vague I guess | |
03:18 | eythian | I reckon. Just make it do sensible things. |
03:18 | wizzyrea | deleting the news is sensible. |
03:19 | mtompset | Do constraints force deletes? |
03:19 | eythian | depends on the constraint |
03:20 | with ON DELETE CASCADE, yes | |
03:20 | without, no | |
03:20 | mtompset | So, I should have a ON DELETE CASCADE constraint on the opac_news branchcode that I'm adding. |
03:20 | right? | |
03:21 | (less Koha code, more SQL smartness) | |
03:21 | eythian | well, it should have a foreign key reference to the branchcode |
03:22 | that relationship have ON DELETE CASCADE attached to it. | |
03:22 | +should | |
03:25 | KohaCanuck joined #koha | |
03:25 | KohaCanuck | Hi all |
03:26 | Is there anyone on the channel with a technical background in Koha that might be able to help diagnose a weird issue? | |
03:26 | eythian | ask? |
03:26 | wahanui | Don't ask to ask, just ask. |
03:28 | KohaCanuck | Ok - The problem is this - I have a Koha installation that was working fine then I cleared the database and all seems to work except when I go to manage staged records after an import I have no buttons |
03:29 | i.e. when viewing a batch in manage staged records I can see the list of records but no longer have the button to commit the load to the db | |
03:29 | mtompset | KohaCanuck: How did you clear the database? |
03:30 | KohaCanuck | I have a script that I found online used by a Koha supplier - it just does a bunch of truncates |
03:30 | I did a few loads after running this script and all was good | |
03:31 | This is a dev server so I can play around with this as necessary - I copied a working instance from the prod system too and still no change | |
03:31 | (using koha-restore) | |
03:32 | I can add items manually with no problem | |
03:32 | wizzyrea | http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.[…]se-td3065836.html < this? |
03:34 | KohaCanuck | no - it was a different script with all the tables specified individually |
03:34 | dcook | I seem to remember having a similar issue but it was a while ago so I can't recall what happened in the end... |
03:34 | KohaCanuck: Are you using a regular packages install or are you using koha-gitify? | |
03:35 | wizzyrea | https://gitorious.org/koha-too[…]lean_database.sql < this? |
03:35 | KohaCanuck | I saw the same issue posted by someone and they just reinstalled koha which I'd rather not do as I'd rather understand why it happened |
03:35 | dcook | understanding++ |
03:35 | KohaCanuck | regular debian packages |
03:36 | I'm a former system analyst/programmer/admin from many years ago - I'm just helping a local organisation getting their Koha system up as a favour | |
03:36 | dcook | Yeah, if you could paste a link to the script or paste the actual script using paste.koha-community.org that would be helpful |
03:36 | mtompset | If it is dev? why not drop the db and create it again, then go to the staff client and start from scratch that way? |
03:37 | KohaCanuck | the script is here https://gitorious.org/koha-too[…]lean_database.sql |
03:37 | I've copied a working db from a production system which works fine and still have the same issue | |
03:38 | I've removed the dev instance altogether with koha-remove and restored from production using koha-restore - it came up and still the same issue | |
03:38 | I think its a Perl or Apache issue | |
03:38 | * dcook | doubts this |
03:39 | dcook | Can you post some screenshots? |
03:39 | You had it working at one point? | |
03:39 | Also, which version of Koha are you on? 3.14? | |
03:39 | KohaCanuck | yep - it was working fine after I ran the db clear script |
03:39 | wizzyrea | are you using translations? |
03:39 | dcook | After? |
03:40 | KohaCanuck | Where can I post screenshots? |
03:40 | Koha version: 3.09.00.004 | |
03:41 | wizzyrea | (if the dev version is different from prod version, and you haven't updated the translations, it can cause wonkiness) |
03:41 | dcook | KohaCanuck: Something like imgur.com |
03:41 | Interestingly enough, when I try to import on 3.15, I don't see any buttons either on my dev system | |
03:41 | KohaCanuck | I did wonder about that - they are different versions but I am struggling to get the older version on to the same version as prod |
03:42 | * dcook | has played around with this DB way too much though |
03:42 | wizzyrea | are you using translations? |
03:42 | eythian | KohaCanuck: did you have buttons there before you did this? |
03:42 | KohaCanuck | I don't think so - I'm not sure what translations are |
03:42 | eythian | and: are you getting any javascript errors when you go to this page? |
03:42 | dcook | ^^ |
03:42 | Also, KohaCanuck: What version is the prod system? | |
03:43 | KohaCanuck | yep the 'import this batch into the catalog' button is missing |
03:43 | dcook | If you're trying to use a DB from different versions without upgrading your database, you'll run into problems |
03:43 | eythian | dcook: you can't do that |
03:43 | KohaCanuck: you can post screenshots to imgur | |
03:43 | KohaCanuck | Prod Koha version: 3.12.00.000 |
03:43 | wizzyrea | errr |
03:43 | dcook | eythian: How do you mean? |
03:44 | wizzyrea | you're importing a 3.12 db on a 3.09? |
03:44 | eythian | you can't run with an old database. You don't have the option to. |
03:44 | now going backwards is bad. | |
03:44 | KohaCanuck | ok I'm guessing this is the issue |
03:44 | * dcook | bets so |

03:47 | eythian | You don't have an apt source configured |
03:47 | so apt-get update won't work | |
03:47 | KohaCanuck | d'oh! Now I fell dumb |
03:48 | mtompset | feel even. :P |
03:48 | It's okay. Obvious mistakes occur sometimes. :) | |
03:48 | What is ibfk? | |
03:48 | KohaCanuck | indeed - my dumbness has affected my typing |
03:49 | wizzyrea | oh did you install a package you built yourself? |
03:49 | mtompset | I'm looking at constraints (reserves_ifbk_1 for example). |
03:49 | KohaCanuck | I'm not that smart :) - I just grabbed a package online |
03:49 | eythian | ifbk or ibfk? |
03:49 | wizzyrea | oh you should use the official packages :) |
03:49 | packages? | |
03:49 | wahanui | rumour has it packages is at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian |
03:49 | eythian | I think it's the name for a key anyway |
03:49 | wizzyrea | ^^ |
03:50 | mtompset | I figure fk is shorthand for foreign key. |
03:50 | But what is ib? | |
03:50 | eythian | yeah, which is why I was confused because you didn't write that :) |

03:51 | KohaCanuck | ok I'm going to add a source for the updates and see what happens |
03:51 | eythian | you'll probably need to force-upgrade |
03:51 | wizzyrea | it might be entertaining. :) |
03:52 | KohaCanuck | ugh - if the server dies so be it - it'll free up the rest of my evening :) |
03:52 | wizzyrea | you needed a night off. :) |
03:52 | dcook | KohaCanuck: So I was just having the same problem as you |
03:52 | wizzyrea | also, naah, it'll be fiiiiine |
03:53 | * wizzyrea | couldn't replicate it |
03:53 | dcook | (Actually, I was using a 3.15 database with 3.8 code...and had the same experience. It wasn't good.) |
03:53 | KohaCanuck | the server is 10 miles away and its -30C out so I think I'll stay home :D |
03:53 | dcook | hehe |
03:53 | wizzyrea | ^ good plan |
03:53 | dcook | What part of the country are you in, KohaCanuck? |
03:53 | KohaCanuck | dcook did you just upgrade to fix? |

03:55 | KohaCanuck | small world - which city dcook? |
03:55 | mtompset | I thought there was a bot snack thing. :( |
03:55 | dcook | Well, I lived in Saskatoon and Regina, but I'm a rural person |
03:55 | Definitely a small world | |
03:56 | eythian: How do you manage multiple Koha instances using different versions? | |
03:56 | eythian | we very much try not to |

03:57 | wahanui | thanks wizzyrea :) |
03:57 | wizzyrea | there it is |
03:58 | * wizzyrea | corroborates eythian's story |
03:58 | pastebot | "mtompset" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "So is this my constraint clause to add?" (2 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/22 |
03:59 | eythian | that seems like what you want |
03:59 | dcook | I suppose a person could have a few Koha instances with a package install and then just make sure to use them with the right git tag... |
03:59 | wizzyrea | http://xkcd.com/1296/ hahahahahahahahahahahahaha |
04:00 | and as my final giggle for the day | |
04:00 | http://xkcd.com/1294/ | |
04:00 | ^ just watched the deepsky video on the OLT | |
04:00 | eythian | dcook: yeah, we build all our packages with our own patches in them |
04:00 | from a git repo, of course | |
04:00 | dcook | wizzyrea: lol |
04:01 | eythian: That would be for production though, right? I'm thinking more in terms of dev work. | |
04:02 | wizzyrea | later kohan |
04:02 | s | |
04:02 | let me try again | |
04:02 | later kohans | |
04:02 | dcook | Kohans? |
04:02 | eythian | Dev is in a VM on my machine. It doesn't use packages (because I built it before they existed) |
04:03 | you can do that however you want, but staging and prod is package based. | |
04:04 | dcook | Makes sense |
04:04 | I imagine you must have a company-specific and community-specific set up though, no? | |
04:04 | eythian | not really |
04:04 | there's no need | |
04:04 | I have many git remotes though | |
04:05 | dcook | Do you use a fresh DB every time you're testing a patch in dev then? |
04:05 | eythian | no, I usually just use whatever DB I have lying around. |
04:06 | I may make changes to it for testing, or switch it out to another db if I'm not wanting the change the primary one. | |
04:06 | dcook | Wouldn't you run into issues like those above? |
04:06 | eythian | No |
04:06 | dcook | Of having newer code than your db? |
04:06 | eythian | you can't have newer code than your db |
04:06 | you can have newer db than code | |
04:06 | dcook | Sorry otherway around |
04:06 | Yeah | |
04:06 | eythian | (but you shouldn't, it's bad.) |
04:07 | dcook | Agreed. I'd like to avoid it in the future. |
04:07 | But the only way I see it is to use a different DB each time | |
04:07 | eythian | It rarely causes issues, and if it does, then I change my db to an empty one. |
04:07 | bag | well it's fine until you do a database call :P |
04:07 | eythian | or an old one |
04:07 | dcook | Mmm |
04:07 | eythian | no, the schema doesn't change all that much |
04:07 | dcook | In acquisitions and marc import it has |
04:07 | eythian | I'm willing to be the missing buttons were totally unrelated to the database |
04:07 | dcook | Those are the two main places I've noticed it |
04:07 | eythian | sure, and in those places, I'll use a more appropriate database version. |
04:08 | you know because it dies with an error about missing fields. | |
04:08 | dcook | Hmm, here's what happened with my missing buttons.. |
04:08 | I had a 3.15 database | |
04:08 | Staged the records as 3.8 and then had missing buttons | |
04:08 | Switched back to 3.15, staged a new batch of records, and had a fully functional interface | |
04:09 | No JS errors. But the code must've expected something and didn't get it | |
04:09 | Probably in relation to newer Koha handling importing for authority records | |
04:09 | But, that's just my guess | |
04:12 | Well, not in relation per se, but due to changes in data it expects now | |
04:12 | </ramble> | |
04:12 | bag | @monologue |
04:12 | huginn | bag: Your current monologue is at least 1 line long. |
04:12 | wahanui | i already had it that way, huginn. |
04:13 | bag | @monologue dcook |
04:13 | huginn | bag: (monologue [<channel>]) -- Returns the number of consecutive lines you've sent in <channel> without being interrupted by someone else (i.e. how long your current 'monologue' is). <channel> is only necessary if the message isn't sent in the channel itself. |
04:14 | dcook | hehe |
04:14 | I'll have to do that next time, bag ;) | |
04:26 | mtompset | are constraints up or down? |
04:26 | eg. branches and opac_news. | |
04:26 | where do I add the constraint? opac_news, right? | |
04:27 | dcook | yarp |
04:27 | * dcook | is fairly certain at least |
04:28 | eythian | yeah |
04:28 | you're saying "I depend on this other thing" | |
04:29 | you don't say "this other thing depends on me" because that would be hard to manage. | |
04:29 | dcook | ^^ |
04:30 | Just make sure that the field in opac_news has proper values in it already when adding the constraint | |
04:30 | Or else you'll get all manner of errors | |
04:30 | Well, warnings | |
04:30 | wahanui | warnings are nothing to worry about. |
04:30 | eythian | they'll be errors and the contraint won't get applied |
04:31 | pastebot | "mtompset" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "Errors like this?!" (1 line) at http://paste.koha-community.org/23 |
04:31 | dcook | That's what I was thinking, yep |
04:31 | mtompset | But blank isn't a valid branch code. :( |
04:32 | eythian | maybe... |
04:32 | wahanui | i think maybe is a momentaneous error |
04:32 | eythian | hmm |
04:32 | mtompset | Guess I'll have to rethink how to do this. |
04:32 | eythian | I think there might be a way to allow null |
04:32 | dcook | Really? |
04:32 | eythian | maybe |
04:32 | * dcook | hasn't noticed one before but would be intrigued |
04:32 | eythian | I'm not sure, I haven't ever done it that I know of |
04:32 | dcook | If so, that could mean adding more constraints in Koha would be possible |
04:32 | Which I can only think would be a good thing | |
04:33 | eythian | papa: do you know? you know these things often. |
04:34 | papa | eh? which one in particular? |
04:34 | dcook | Hmm |
04:34 | mtompset: Is the opac_news column nullable? | |
04:34 | papa | not off top of my head |
04:34 | mtompset | Not currently. |
04:34 | But it could be if that works. ;) | |
04:34 | dcook | Actually, what column in the opac_news table? |
04:35 | * dcook | doesn't see a branchcode column |
04:35 | dcook | I assume you're adding one? |
04:35 | mtompset | Yes. |
04:35 | dcook | If I read the interwebs correctly, that might do it mtompset |
04:36 | mtompset | There's this "Match full/partial/simple" option. |
04:36 | eythian | papa: I think you can, because "on delete set null" is a thing |
04:37 | I think if the column is nullable, then you can have a null in there without breaking the relationship | |
04:37 | but a blank is not null | |
04:37 | papa | depends on the database |
04:38 | mtompset | branches and opac_news with a branchcode column added. |
04:38 | eythian | mysql in this case |
04:38 | mtompset | you mean this wouldn't transfer across RDBMS well?! |
04:38 | Oh sucky. | |
04:39 | eythian | I dunno |
04:39 | dcook | eythian: Good point about blank not being null.. |
04:39 | eythian | The easiest thing to do would be to test it |
04:39 | then you know for sure. | |
04:39 | papa | postgres allows for foreign keys to be null, and does not check if it is null. mysql - I know I had some issues. |
04:40 | eythian | well of course it had some issues, but did they affect this :) |
04:41 | mtompset | I could always just delete matching branches, update matching branches in the C4::Branches, which is ugly. |
04:41 | eythian | what? |
04:41 | why not just set anything blank to null? | |
04:41 | and see if this works like that | |
04:42 | mtompset | I'll give it a go. |
04:42 | eythian | and make sure that creating new items that would set it to blank instead set it to null. |
04:42 | because if that works, that's the easy way that improves the health of the schema at the same time. | |
04:42 | but first, test it in mysql because that'll tell you in about 3 minutes if it's possible or not. | |

04:49 | eythian | make sure it actually worked |
04:49 | just to be safe :) | |
04:50 | you're also going to want to change any blank entries to null and make the logic understand that, etc etc. | |
04:51 | papa | do you want news that are not branch specific? |
04:52 | eythian | I would expect so. |
04:53 | papa | then all good |
04:54 | mtompset | papa, yes. |
04:54 | NULL = every branch | |
04:54 | papa | ok, all good |
04:56 | mtompset | well the upgrade gave me a column of NULLs. |
04:56 | how do I list constraints? | |
04:56 | papa | show create table |
04:57 | mtompset | describe {table}? |
04:57 | papa | show create table {table}; |
04:58 | mtompset | Ah... there we go. Constraint is shown. :) |
04:58 | Now to tweak the adding to not use '', but rather undef. :) | |

05:41 | dcook | Koha is lacking a bit in that department.. |
05:41 | mtompset | constraints++ # it should be way higher. |
05:42 | Okay... dumb question... I know the old way to add columns doing the updatedatabase.pl and kohastructure.pl stuff... | |
05:42 | How do I do it the DBIx way? | |
05:42 | eythian | if you're lucky, someone's put it in the wiki. |
05:42 | You're probably not that lucky. | |
05:46 | mtompset | Nope. I don't think so. |
05:47 | dcook | Someone might've done a write up about that from Kohacon |
05:47 | Galen and Kyle talked a bit about that | |

10:11 | samueld joined #koha | |
10:19 | cait | paxed: you are translating those on translate.koha-community.org - right? |
10:21 | paxed | cait: the marc field description names are not in po-files, afaik. |
10:21 | cait | yes they are now |
10:22 | http://translate.koha-community.org/de/ - you only have to drop bgkriegel a nice mail and ask for it to be added | |
10:26 | paxed | ah, ok. although i won't be using pootle, as i can grab the "official" translations from the national library's XML file, it'll be much easier for me to write a script to mangle them into the po-file. |
10:31 | ....except it looks like the comments in the po-file aren't that useful in trying to match the text to a marc-field. *grmbl* | |
10:31 | cait | whatever you prefer |
10:32 | I am helping bgkriegel to make the po for marc files work and i think we are almost there now, one patch pending fixing some bad translations | |
10:32 | paxed | i prefer computers to automate tasks, not make me type more. :P |
10:32 | ok, so you'd know about that... | |
10:32 | say... a comment like this: | |
10:32 | #: Bib Sub 100 f 110 111 130 240 243 400 410 411 600 610 611 630 696 697 698 | |
10:32 | cait | bibliographic |
10:33 | field 100 f and others i think | |
10:33 | paxed | bibliographic data, sure, field 100f? 110? 111? is it the whole field, or some subfield? |
10:33 | cait | i think 100f not sure about the others |
10:33 | i only looked up things with the first subfields, perhaps not ideal for atuomating yes | |
10:33 | but it's easy to check with the sql file | |
10:35 | paxed | the comment really should list the exact subfield or just the field number if it's for the whole field. |
10:36 | cait | it's a new thing |
10:36 | it works pretty well already, but I think patches will be accepted :) | |
10:36 | paxed | good thing you get comments on it before it gets put into action then... :P |
10:37 | cait | it's still in a test phase |
10:37 | maybe try to take things offered with a bit more positivity? | |
10:40 | it's a process and an alternative to translating the sql files | |
10:42 | paxed | sorry my positivity is a bit low - it just feels like Koha's translation process is nothing but fighting an uphill battle. |
10:43 | cait | I have been translating it for years and there has been lots of process |
10:43 | it's boring | |

14:39 | ashimema | good oh, I find it walways take's me a few days to wind down.. mostly I only have a few days off at a time so it doesn't work well. |
14:40 | either that, or I book myself something stupid to do to take my mind off work (think kayaking down crazy rivers in the alps, or hiking the inca trail.. I'de reccomend it) | |
14:40 | * druthb | waves to cait and ashimema. |
14:40 | ashimema | good day druthb |
14:41 | cait | hi druthb :) |
14:41 | ashimema: i think that's not the kind of thing that comes to my mind | |
14:41 | I bought 2 new books :) | |
14:41 | and visiting with friends and family... we went to a chocolate fair/market | |
14:41 | ashimema | such a library geek cait ;) |
14:41 | cait | hehe |
14:42 | and played a ton of board games during the weekend | |
14:42 | ashimema | mmm. chocolate is always good however |
14:42 | kivilahtio | which boardgames did you play? |
14:42 | cait? | |
14:42 | wahanui | cait: go to bed |
14:42 | ashimema | the meeting I'm in is missing chocolate.. |
14:42 | cait | hm oddville |
14:43 | kugelfuhr (self published german game i think) | |
14:43 | quirkle | |
14:43 | carcassonne with various extensions | |
14:44 | kivilahtio | ok |
14:44 | * druthb | suggests "Quelf." Fun, silly game. |
14:44 | kivilahtio | looks interesting |
14:44 | last I played was Resistance | |
14:44 | maybe I could buy meself a new christmas present | |
14:44 | :) | |
14:44 | mrenvoize joined #koha | |
14:44 | * druthb | played "Cards Against Humanity" at the Thanksgiving party recently. With five or six people in the game, that can be a *lot* of fun. |
14:45 | jcamins | We played Munchkin on Saturday. That was also quite fun. |
14:45 | kivilahtio | but seriously. Nobody is encountering searchCookie overdose when doing searches in hte staff client, namely catalog/search.pl? |
14:45 | munchkin is! | |
14:45 | mrenvoize | I *love* ' Cards Against Humanity' druthb.. it's hilarious |
14:45 | kivilahtio | jcamins: but with all the expansions... the card stacks are scary |
14:46 | druthb | I have the first three expansions, and the Bigger, Blacker Box expansion. |
14:46 | mrenvoize | |
14:46 | cait | oddville is pretty nice |
14:46 | i haven't figured out the best strategy yet | |
14:46 | jcamins | Heh. We played with the original and one expansion. |
14:46 | cait | it's probably the most 'advanced' of those 4 |
14:46 | kivilahtio | I could just progarm a small modification to periodically clean up extra searchCookies? |
14:46 | druthb | I'm also becoming a Phase 10 fan, and have played Fluxx a couple of times, too. |
14:47 | kivilahtio | I like Citadels |
14:47 | cait | kivilahtio: the plan was to move them to the sessions |
14:47 | kivilahtio | Also Dungeon Lords |
14:47 | cait | did you see the bugs I posted earlier? |
14:47 | kivilahtio | cait: inside OPAC |
14:47 | cait | then the data in the cookies would be much smaller |
14:47 | kivilahtio | cait: yes I did and I commented they are for the OPAC. |
14:47 | cait | could be done in a next step - I don't think we have search history in staff yet? |
14:47 | kivilahtio | we have no problems in opac, this is not a search history thing, I believe |
14:48 | every time we make a new search we get a new search cookie | |
14:48 | jcamins | This is the browser that allows you to page back and forth through results. |
14:48 | I never encountered a limit. | |
14:48 | kivilahtio | after 30+ searches apache fails to server |
14:48 | jcamins | But I see no problem with making it so that it can be disabled. |
14:48 | kivilahtio | jcamins: well it is pretty hard to break it but our head librarian is at my heels on this matter |
14:49 | and I guess when working you could easily make 30+ searches during one session | |
14:49 | jcamins: I was thinking of removing all search cookies when a certain threshold is reached | |
14:49 | jcamins | kivilahtio: better would be to make it possible to disable it. |
14:50 | kivilahtio | jcamins: to disable the cookie generation alltogether? |
14:50 | jcamins | Right. |
14:50 | Make it optional with a system preference. | |
14:50 | kivilahtio | jcamins: I think it might prevent the next - previous buttons from working in the catalogue/detail.pl |
14:50 | jcamins | Of course it would. |
14:50 | kivilahtio | jcamins: ah ok :) now I see your point |
14:51 | jcamins: So you think just removing extra searchCookies is a bad idea? | |
14:51 | jcamins | They won't show up if it's disabled, and you've maintained predictability. |
14:51 | Yes. | |
14:51 | kivilahtio | well I am not deleting hte cookie currently in use, but old cookies when a new one is created? |
14:52 | jcamins | Because if you remove search cookies at unpredictable intervals, the user will encounter irregular, non-reproducible problems. |
14:52 | kivilahtio | jcamins: yeah, that is horrible |
14:52 | jcamins | The reason for the way the feature works is so that you can have multiple searches in different windows, and page through them all simultaneously. |
14:53 | kivilahtio | jcamins: hmm, it's starting to make sense |
14:53 | jcamins: but I like that feature :) | |
14:53 | jcamins: I wonder if there is a way to save that feature | |
14:53 | jcamins: I guess we could increase our cookie limit in our apache2 config | |
14:54 | jcamins: and our head librarian can have a automatic cookie cleaner plugin | |
14:54 | :) | |
14:55 | if we hit trooble then disable the cookie generation | |
14:55 | jcamins: Any suggestions where I could document my finding regarding this searchCookie overflow? | |
14:56 | jcamins | Umm... we could maybe put it in the FAQ, not that it's a frequent question. |
15:01 | rocio joined #koha | |
15:06 | kivilahtio | I'll try to dokuwiki it after I get my account request approved. |
15:09 | tomas_ | even when it is unlikely, if it is possible to build a cookie like that weneed to find a solution |
15:09 | cait | kivilahtio: ah |
15:09 | give me a sec - i can approve | |
15:10 | kivilahtio: approved | |
15:11 | kivilahtio | tomas_: well we could change the labeling of the searchCookie from "R3xkG3fT" to "sc<timestamp>" and then remove the last one? |
15:12 | jcamins: I guess this would preserve some predicatbility? Maybe you could set a system preference on how many cookies you want to sotre? | |
15:12 | jcamins | kivilahtio: that would make sense. |
15:12 | Or the timestamp. | |
15:13 | kivilahtio | jcamins: maybe both? It's not that hard to code |
15:13 | depedning on how easy it is to pull all cookies with jquery :) | |
15:13 | but then it is yet another system preference, of which there are already too many | |
15:15 | blou | holà koha! |
15:15 | kivilahtio | cait: Thanks for the verification! |
15:15 | blou: Hola! | |
15:16 | blou | too many system preferences? That is a philosophical discussion. I love those! |
15:16 | hi kivilahtio! | |
15:16 | jcamins | You could hardcode it at ten. |
15:16 | Or even three. The important thing is that the behavior be consistent. | |
15:16 | kivilahtio | jcamins: you think your multitasking librarians can settle for 10? |
15:17 | jcamins | I think so, yeah. |
15:17 | kivilahtio | jcamins: ok |
15:17 | jcamins | The most common use cases are ~3. |
15:17 | kivilahtio | jcamins: Thanks for your particiaption, I'll try to get it done tomorrow |
15:19 | blou | Little question, before I send to it to the mailiing list: anyone has translation issue with the bootstrap theme? |
15:20 | tomas_ | write to koha-translate directly |
15:20 | blou | but the root issue is the programming (the .tt s) |
15:21 | but ok, I'll do that. | |
15:21 | tcohen | did u find untranslatable stuff? |
15:21 | blou | A lot |
15:22 | drojf joined #koha | |
15:22 | blou | translate update doesn't catch stuff that is not between > < it seems, and there are a LOT of them now |
15:23 | the tts have been reformated (nicely), but that puts a lot of words not between > and < anymore, so they are not in the .po at all | |

17:03 | tcohen | np, I'll try to remember what was it about |
17:04 | cait | mostly irritating was that the logic for detail page and results seemed different |

18:05 | gaetan_B | i remember it caused a debate not so long ago |
18:05 | but maybe not here | |
18:05 | ebegin | The only thing I can think of is to prevent user to be overwhelmed with too many choices... |
18:06 | gaetan_B | in that case we should just hide the menu, but not show an empty menu |
18:09 | francharb | gaetan_B, I guess it was a joke |

19:01 | criticism_without_positive_suggestions-- | |
19:09 | NateC joined #koha | |
19:19 | francharb | hi rangi! |
19:20 | I just read Joubu's email | |
19:21 | It sounds like he is trying to figure out how things works for other developer | |
19:21 | It's positive in a way | |
19:22 | questionning yourself to see if you can do better | |
19:22 | it's what I read between lines | |
19:23 | I hope other developers will share how they feel about developing in koha community | |
19:23 | gmcharlt | that's a charitable interpretation; however, there are more productive approaches for identifying and working on problems, IMO |
19:23 | francharb | maybe that will lead to suggestions for better integration... |
19:24 | gmcharlt, maybe | |
19:24 | gmcharlt, I would like just to remind that english is not our first langage | |
19:25 | and maybe, in french it wouldnt sounds this way | |
19:25 | I'm never sure if my english is understood the way I wanted tom for example | |
19:25 | ;) | |
19:25 | gmcharlt | francharb: it is difficult to know without seeing the original French, as it were |
19:26 | francharb | for sure |
19:26 | gmcharlt | of course, not that Joobu was necessarily composing in French, then translating ;) |
19:26 | francharb | and there is also a cultural way of adressing problem that doesnt helop |
19:28 | gmcharlt | well, that's potentially a large point -- there are circumstances where accompanying suggested solutions with the complaints is more likely to be better received |
19:28 | and, of course, circumstances (even within the same culture) where such a requirement is an undue burden | |
19:29 | francharb | I need to go back to work! But I hope we will have a time to talk about it later |
19:29 | :) | |
19:34 | rangi | heres what i have been working on, to try and help |
19:34 | http://dashboard.koha-community.org/taskboard# | |
19:34 | all bugs needign signoff, in date order | |
19:34 | colour coded by severity | |
19:35 | jcamins | Nice! |
19:35 | rangi | if you mouse over youshould get the description |
19:35 | if you click it should claim | |
19:35 | what i need to do is make that claim stick | |
19:35 | (and then time out) | |
19:35 | so an easy way for people to see what bugs others are looking at, to stop double ups | |
19:35 | and and easy way to spot ones to sign off in general | |
19:37 | like bug 7376 | |
19:37 | huginn | 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=7376 critical, P5 - low, ---, olli-antti.kivilahti, Needs Signoff , Transfer limits should be checked at check-in |
19:37 | rangi | ill try to finish that off in my spare time, hopefully tonight |
19:40 | drojf | oh that's nice! |
19:41 | rangi | another thought i had |
19:43 | is to do the same for signed off | |
19:43 | but colour code them by who in the qa team is eligible | |
19:44 | cos when i was doing qa, i used to click on things and then go, oh, thats a catalyst patch | |
19:44 | or oh a catalyst person signed that off | |
19:44 | and have to go look for another one | |
19:45 | francharb | ++ |
19:45 | drojf | regarding the email, i think it is ok to get things off your chest even if you do not have solutions. i see a little undertone of "let's complain together" instead of "find solutions" but i assume that is not how it is meant. i don't see how questioning gmcharlt in that context is ok or in any way helpful though, given that he donates his time to be RM. |
19:46 | francharb | That's the awkward part. I agree. ;) |
19:47 | gmcharlt | drojf: to be fair, the fact that I spend time on being RM, both with the support of my employer, and spending my own personal time on it, does not excuse me from criticism |
19:48 | but one thing I will say is this: I am intentionally taking stability of master as among my top concerns | |
19:48 | rangi | stability++ |
19:49 | gmcharlt | I will also say this as a general statement: I'm not at all a fan of overemphasizing expedience as opposed to coding a new feature thoroughly |
19:50 | and I also believe that a sufficiently bad implementation of a new feature, no matter how desirable the feature, should /not/ go into Koha if it would cause problems of severe technical debt down the road | |
19:50 | I *am* a fan of small patches that implement large features in an iterative fashion (hey, tell the RM a story!) | |
19:51 | but I do acknowledge that there is room for improvement -- and that includes in myself | |
19:54 | rangi | if there wasnt, we'd all be bored and leave :) |

20:18 | KohaCanuck | Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone can shed any light why my dev koha system has started to look like this after an upograde http://i.imgur.com/cJDZxWc.png |
20:18 | wizzyrea | you probably want to shift + refresh |
20:18 | clear your cache | |
20:18 | ot | |
20:18 | it is because the underlying framework for the javascript has changed, and you need new copies. | |
20:19 | KohaCanuck | it does it in all different browsers I have |
20:19 | wizzyrea | yep, all browsers you've loaded koha in before? |
20:20 | gmcharlt | KohaCanuck: I also suggest checking the javascript console of your web browser |
20:20 | wizzyrea | ^ and that |
20:20 | KohaCanuck | ok will try those suggestions - thanks! |
20:24 | jcamins | KohaCanuck: alt-refresh is necessary on Chrome. |

21:05 | eythian | hi |
21:05 | cait | hi eythian :) |
21:06 | eythian | hi ciat |
21:19 | ebegin | A question I have since a long time and never dare (or had time) to ask |
21:19 | gmcharlt | *drumroll* |
21:20 | wizzyrea | ask? |
21:20 | wahanui | Don't ask to ask, just ask. |
21:20 | ebegin | Why do we use the MARC21 952 fields instead of852 for holdings ? |
21:21 | gmcharlt | ebegin: one answer (besides potentially being just an accident of history): standard MARC21 852 fields aren't all that great at representing a full item record |
21:21 | cait | hm i think because 852 don't have all the things we want to do could be one reason |
21:21 | gmcharlt++ # always having the better explanations :) | |
21:22 | ebegin | That what I expected. However, we could have use the standard 852 and add our additional custom subfields in 952... (don't think I want to change everything) |
21:22 | Just want to know the reason. | |
21:23 | cait | ebegin: i think splitting up on 2 fields would only confuse things |
21:23 | gmcharlt | ebegin: doing that is not implausible, but would have made record processing more difficult |
21:23 | cait | having one line for one item is much less error prone |
21:23 | gmcharlt | since you'd have to keep track of pairs of fields for each item |
21:23 | * cait | nods |
21:23 | gmcharlt | also, I am in Germany today, and cait is in Seattle |
21:23 | apparently ;) | |
21:24 | cait | huh? |
21:24 | sorry, i didn't want to interrupt | |

21:32 | cait | gmcharlt: if you are in the same head ... could you send some thoughts in my direction on how to fix the bug i am working on? :) |
21:32 | gmcharlt | "Use the Source, Cait!" |

21:33 | gmcharlt | cait: seriously, which bug? |
21:33 | cait | ah, just something small actually |
21:34 | bug 5010 | |
21:34 | ebegin | cait, change you == by eq in your comparison |
21:34 | huginn | 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=5010 normal, P5 - low, ---, gmcharlt, NEW , Incomplete links in carts and lists sent from the staff client |
21:34 | cait | ebegin: good one :) |
21:34 | * ebegin | is guessing |
21:34 | cait | some of the cart/list emails have incomplete urls |
21:34 | those have the opacbaseurl defined in the .pl file as well... but not the same it is in auth | |
21:36 | i am just a bit confused i guess :) | |
21:39 | gmcharlt | cait: one issue re your last comment -- constructing a base URL using $ENV{'SERVER_NAME'} from the *staff* interface won't necessarily give the correct result |
21:39 | cait | hm we acutally have links into the opac for the intranet mails as well |
21:39 | gmcharlt | e.g., it's quite common for staff and OPAC interfaces to have different base names |
21:40 | cait | but... it doesn't use the pref at all |
21:40 | which seems also bad | |
21:40 | so i think neithe rof the currently implemented ways is correct | |
21:40 | ew. | |
21:40 | eythian | yeah, there are complications with both. |
21:41 | gmcharlt | especially since there's no guarantee that a given Koha catalog won't have a *bunch* of different OPAC and staff base URLs |
21:42 | cait | ok, now it gets really ugly |
21:42 | eythian | yep, we have one setup that has two for each. |
21:42 | cait | ok, what can I do? |
21:42 | i think fixing for multiple opac interfaces... is too hard... couldn'tyou use the new apache sys pref rewrite thing in that case? | |
21:42 | setting different OpacBaseURLs for each? | |
21:42 | rangi | https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug[…]lay.html?id=91286 |
21:43 | eythian | probably, yeah. |
21:43 | rangi | my first cpan patch in a while |
21:43 | cait | yay :) |
21:43 | * rangi | is using Catmandu to throw things into elasticsearch |
21:43 | gmcharlt | cait: yeah, that would be a reasonable approach without having to write code |
21:43 | cait | rangi++ |
21:44 | so if I got it working... and using the pref | |
21:44 | rangi | its even actually working |
21:44 | cait | rangi: elastic search? woohoo |
21:44 | rangi | indexing |
21:44 | wahanui | indexing is done by Zebra. |
21:44 | rangi | and basic search anyway |
21:44 | cait | wahanui: not necessarily ;) |
21:44 | wahanui | cait: sorry... |
21:44 | cait | sounds like a good start |
21:46 | would something like this work? OPACBaseURL => ($in->{'query'}->https() ? "https://" : "http://") . C4::Context->preference("OPACBaseURL"); | |
21:46 | assuming that a port would be added into the pref as well? | |

21:47 | pastebot | "rangi" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "Now saving a biblio updates the index (if you have the syspref on)" (37 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/25 |
21:47 | rangi | im happy in it's simplicity |
21:49 | cait | and should I touch Auth.pm or better have it in the .pl files... and leave the Auth.pm line alone for now? |
21:49 | not sure what it#s used for | |
21:51 | hm looks like it was added with the multiple PAC interface support | |
21:53 | rangi | http://git.catalyst.net.nz/gw?[…]ds/elastic_search <-- for people playing at home |
21:53 | gmcharlt | rangi++ |
21:54 | cait | rangi++ |
21:54 | will try to add it only to the .pl files | |
21:54 | rangi | im not utterly decided on the module names/layout .. and wont be at all offended of any suggestions of a better layout |
22:05 | cait | grepping for OPACBaseURL we do harcode http a lot all over the place |
22:08 | rangi | yeah |
22:09 | ebegin | Couldn't we add the http or https in the syspref ? |
22:09 | cait | i wonder if in a first step i could just make it all rely on what we have in Auth.pm |
22:09 | and then we could centrally fix that | |
22:09 | that would make the list email link behave the same as the cart email link in opac... as the cart email already uses the Auth.pm way | |
22:10 | ebegin: i thik we removed it from the pref in the past... but i have no idea why | |
22:10 | papa joined #koha | |
22:11 | ebegin | we did that for a another product too. We just switch in adding the http/https in our settings |
22:11 | cait | i don't exactly remembe why it was removed |
22:11 | maybe because some are using a mix? | |
22:11 | like running the patron account with https but the normal opac pages not | |
22:12 | gmcharlt | cait: ebegin: I suspect the reasoning was to make it easier to tack on http or https if a catalog supported both |
22:12 | cait | :) |

23:09 | maximep | aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah I hope out z39.50 search in OPAC isn't a duplicate :/ |
23:10 | cait | sorry maximep |
23:10 | maximep | it's several years old, but we only just got to share it :/ |
23:11 | cait | it's the danger in doing that :( |
23:11 | maximep | :'( |
23:12 | rangi | maximep: it kinda is unfortunately |
23:13 | hopefully there's bits of both that are useful | |
23:13 | maximep | pretty sure we did it differently |
23:13 | fred will look at it friday | |
