| 00:00 | francharb | waited for the bus yesterday evening (45min), I thought I will lost my legs. | 
| 00:00 | ;) | |
| 00:00 | dcook | -27 with windchill? Ouch.. | 
| 00:00 | Eeep. I'm glad you're ok, francharb! | |
| 00:00 | francharb | thanks! :) | 
| 00:01 | dcook | Growing up in Saskatchewan, I'm quite accustomed to feeling like I'm going to turn to ice | 
| 00:01 | francharb | but I could have wait in the dep' near the bus stop | 
| 00:01 | dcook | When I was a child, all the children would huddle together outside for warmth during recess and lunch | 
| 00:01 | jcamins | Okay, prefix characters are on page 8-1. | 
| 00:01 | francharb | I dont know why I didnt actually... | 
| 00:01 | dcook | You could've grabbed some beer :D | 
| 00:01 | francharb | haha | 
| 00:02 | ebegin | dcook, are you from Vancouver ? | 
| 00:02 | dcook | ebegin: I was born and raised in Saskatchewan, but I lived in Vancouver most recently for a few years before moving to Sydney, Australia | 
| 00:02 | ebegin | oh, saskatchewan, just read it | 
| 00:03 | dcook | I thought about moving to Montreal for my MLIS but Vancouver had the co-op program that got me my current job working on Koha | 
| 00:04 | Montreal would've been better for my French though ;) | |
| 00:06 | Ah, right, I was going to say, you provide services in both English and French, ebegin? | |
| 00:07 | ebegin | yes, both languages |

| 00:33 | Don't freeze! | |
| 00:33 | francharb | have a good night jcamins | 
| 00:33 | dcook, thanks | |

| 10:33 | Binu | so sorry for that. I was just checking the functionality. | 
| 10:35 | cait | np | 
| 10:36 | Binu | Ques : While importing MARC records into a blank Koha database, I want Koha to check if there are duplicate records in the MARC file that I am importing so that duplicate records are clubbed together to a particular bibliography. | 
| 10:38 | for clarity duplicate records mean - one title with mutiple barcodes( i.e. more than one copy) | |
| 10:40 | cait | sorry phone | 
| 10:42 | Binu | what phone? do u want me to call u? |

| 16:06 | oleonard | opac-topissues.pl doesn't work at all the way I thought it did now that I look closely at the query it uses | 
| 16:07 | "Top 50 of the most popular titles in the last 12 months" means most popular titles *added* in the last 12 months, not *circulated* in the last 12 months | |

| 16:20 | gmcharlt | oleonard: wow, and it's been like that from the beginning, it seems | 
| 16:21 | issues.issuedate would match what you're expecting rather than bibio.datecreated | |
| 16:23 | though I could see somebody wanting to include datecreated if they want the emphasis to be on newer titles and their patrons are still reading nothing but Harry Potter ;) | |

| 17:15 | oleonard | As far as I can tell, if I want to use branch runtime parameters in an SQL report, I'll have to create a separate report to cover all branches. | 
| 17:22 | cait | ? | 
| 17:22 | oleonard: maybe i am late, but what is the problem? | |
| 17:23 | ah, ok, no i get it I think | |
| 17:23 | now | |
| 17:23 | oleonard: you could create an authorized value.... with your branchcodes, branches and % and use like... but that would be a bitof a stretch | |
| 17:47 | nengard | oleonard: what people do is create another authorized value list with all the branches in it and then add an 'all branches' with the value equal to % | 
| 17:47 | i thought i had a blog post about that - but can't find it | |

| 17:48 | nengard | http://bywatersolutions.com/20[…]-tip-in-koha-3-8/ | 
| 17:48 | oleonard | I still think it would be a nice idea to build in a blank option when using runtime parameters | 
| 17:49 | nengard | i agree | 
| 17:49 | and i want!!! | |
| 17:49 | for item types, collection codes, etc etc etc | |
| 17:49 | an 'all' option would be great | |
| 17:51 | cait | hm we'd need to be abit careful, it will only work if you use like | 
| 17:51 | and depending on how people did their codes that coudl have some unwanted effects | |

| 17:54 | oleonard | cait: If we're modifying how the query is built by the script we wouldn't necessarily be required to use 'like' |

| 17:55 | cait | i think it's not trivial to do that |

| 18:46 | magnuse | welcome rocio_lunch! | 
| 18:56 | drojf | i am wondering about hosting koha for clients. are there ways of virtualization that have proven particularly useful (or the opposite) to run koha on a root server? | 
| 18:58 | magnuse | drojf: are you considering a physical server? | 
| 18:58 | i have only good things to say about linode | |
| 18:58 | gah | |
| 18:58 | * magnuse | wanders off | 
| 18:58 | cait | i think better use a server in germany | 
| 18:58 | drojf | with the nsa stuff… i suppose only german servers would work ^^ | 
| 18:58 | cait | less trouble | 
| 18:59 | drojf | yep | 
| 18:59 | gmcharlt | drojf: we use Xen quite successfully | 
| 19:00 | cait | drojf: do you want to run a big server yourself? or rent something in a data center? | 
| 19:00 | jcamins | drojf: Xen works pretty well, especially if someone else will manage it for you. | 
| 19:00 | drojf | cait: rent. neither place nor bandwidth here i am afraid | 
| 19:01 | cait | i got worried for a moment :) | 
| 19:01 | drojf | gmcharlt jcamins: i'm not sure if that would work with a rented root server but i'll check | 
| 19:01 | cait | i have heard good things about hetzner | 
| 19:01 | drojf | that is who i am thinking about | 
| 19:01 | jcamins | drojf: oh, probably not. On an individual server level, I just use multiple Koha instances. | 
| 19:02 | drojf | cait. but the vps are pretty low spec so i guess it would make more sense to get a root server (and i could also use it for other fun things) | 
| 19:02 | low spec as in, they have only single cpu vps i think | |
| 19:02 | jcamins | I'd suggest testing Debian/kFreeBSD, since that would give you Debian + jails. | 
| 19:02 | And pf. | |
| 19:03 | * jcamins | is not a fan of iptables. | 
| 19:04 | jcamins | lxc is really nice, but the root user in lxc might have full root privileges on the host system, which is not so good. In my opinion. | 
| 19:05 | drojf | jcamins: i have read about lxc and it did not sound safe. and seems to have extra problems on debian 7 | 
| 19:05 | apart from that, it sounds very interesting | |
| 19:05 | jcamins | I use lxc for testing and development. | 
| 19:06 | Much faster to do clean room package testing on an lxc container than on a separate VM. | |
| 19:12 | drojf | jcamins: yes i will have to play with it when i have more time. looks cool | 
| 19:12 | jcamins | You should just make the switch to Debian/kFreeBSD and play with jails. | 
| 19:12 | drojf | i was thinking about just using koha instances but i was not sure how that will work out if people want ssh access | 
| 19:13 | * jcamins | doesn't provide SSH access. | 
| 19:14 | drojf | i should probably neither | 
| 19:14 | * jcamins | doesn't want to support anyone who does things not through the Koha interface. | 
| 19:14 | drojf | good point ^^ i also do not feel like cleaning up after people with no idea but access :P | 
| 19:15 | rambutan | consider webmin access? | 
| 19:15 | cait | drojf: there is a way you can allow them to download their database anytime with packages | 
| 19:15 | maybe a compromise? | |
| 19:16 | drojf | i have no idea if people would want access at all. i suppose that was my way of thinking. because i would want to have that :D | 
| 19:17 | cait | yeha, but you wouldn't go to a service provider ;) | 
| 19:17 | jcamins | drojf: my feeling is that if someone has a need for SSH access, they should run their own servers, and I will charge (higher) support fees accordingly. | 
| 19:19 | Way higher chances of weirdness. | |
| 19:19 | drojf | good point. and i think those who actually asked me so far did so because they do not want to have to do any servery things. but i will have to bring that up if anything is going to happen with them at all | 
| 19:22 | druthb | Having (in my evil past) had customers who insisted on SSH access, I would start by *doubling* the support fee. Got to pay for the therapy you'll need when you see what they do to your poor innocent servers somehow. | 
| 19:23 | There is nothing good that can come of that. You can provide an SFTP location to download the tar-gzipped sql dumps, if they have a fetish about keeping a copy of their backups, but letting someone have shell access is just asking for a ticket to the loony bin. | |
| 19:26 | …and I'd hate to have to come to Germany to visit you in an asylum, drojf! | |

| 19:38 | * talljoy | checks her calendar | 
| 19:38 | talljoy | cait i had an opportunity to join a group in Stuttgart in May. Is that near you? or not? | 
| 19:39 | cait | it is close by yes :) | 
| 19:39 | i studied in stuttgart, about 3 hours of a train ride and BSZ has hm a branch? in stuttgart | |

| 19:41 | have been there for a day once | |
| 19:41 | it was interesting | |
| 19:42 | druthb | talljoy, has mashing too many Follett data sets made you funny in the head? You have to *think* about whether to go to Germany? | 
| 19:42 | talljoy | ha! |

| 19:42 | wahanui | Germs originated in Germany, before rapidly spreading throughout the rest of the world. | 
| 19:42 | jcamins | ^^ possible reason not to go to Germany. Who wants to get sick? | 
| 19:42 | talljoy | the librarian there is Betty. And I spent some time at an International School in Kiev with her. |

| 23:00 | dcook | Oh ho...I think I might have an idea about this bug now.. | 
| 23:01 | jcamins | rangi: looks like I never got very far. | 
| 23:01 | rangi | ahh bummer | 
| 23:02 | i was thinking of just trying to do a really simple thing, like change format or something | |
| 23:02 | to test the connection was still valid | |
| 23:02 | cos this | |
| 23:02 | wahanui | i heard cos this was publicly logged | 
| 23:02 | rangi | if ( defined($context->{"Zconn"}->{$server}) && (0 == $context->{"Zconn"}->{$server}->errcode()) ) | 
| 23:02 | jcamins | I just have a bunch of debugging statements trying to track down where it hangs, but wasn't able to recreate the bug consistently enough to answer the question. | 
| 23:02 | rangi | isn't doing it | 
| 23:02 | *nod* | |
| 23:02 | k ill keep working on it | |
| 23:04 | jcamins | rangi: try $conn->check(). |

| 23:04 | rangi | hmm does that actually exist? | 
| 23:04 | jcamins | Yeah. | 
| 23:05 | Well, I think. | |
| 23:05 | rangi | just not documented? | 
| 23:05 | i can certainly try | |
| 23:05 | jcamins | It's in the POD. | 
| 23:05 | http://search.cpan.org/~mirk/N[…]ib/ZOOM.pod#check() | |
| 23:06 | rangi | ah yep, we are acting asynchronously in this case | 
| 23:06 | cool ill give it a try | |
| 23:06 | eythian | rangi: you could kick the zebra server, that'd probably break the connection. | 
| 23:07 | jcamins | eythian: that didn't work for me. |

| 23:07 | eythian | ah right | 
| 23:10 | papa joined #koha | |
| 23:16 | dcook | Why would there be a foreign constraint error on the prod system but not the dev system when using the same code and the same data... | 
| 23:17 | jcamins | dcook: because your dev system had an extra upgrade. | 
| 23:17 | dcook | Mmm | 
| 23:17 | Hmm | |
| 23:18 | Possibly but I don't see why it would | |
| 23:18 | jcamins | When did you copy the data from production to dev? | 
| 23:18 | dcook | 15 minutes ago? | 
| 23:19 | jcamins | And you didn't go through the installer? | 
| 23:19 | (for the upgrade) | |
| 23:20 | gmcharlt | are both prod and dev using innodb? | 
| 23:20 | or did the dev system somehow end up using myisasm? | |
| 23:21 | dcook | Both should be innodb | 
| 23:22 | jcamins: The dev used to be higher but I did a restore with a lower DB | |
| 23:22 | jcamins | dcook: and you downgraded the code, too? | 
| 23:22 | dcook | Mind you, I think the restore only removed the tables and readded them. It didn't drop the database and start absolutely completely from scratch | 
| 23:22 | Downgraded the code? | |
| 23:22 | jcamins | Your code and database have to be in sync. | 
| 23:23 | dcook | Both systems are running the same code and (nearly) the same db | 
| 23:23 | jcamins | Okay. | 
| 23:24 | dcook | The prod system dies when it tries to send a letter to patron that doesn't exist anymore, whereas the dev system seems to just chug along | 
| 23:25 | foreign_key_checks are on in the global mysql variables as well so I'm surprised no error comes up | |
| 23:25 | Unless... | |
| 23:25 | wahanui | it has been said that unless is probably meant to give code that reads more like natural language? but i'm not a fan either | 
| 23:25 | * dcook | tries another thing | 
| 23:25 | jcamins | You are missing a table on the production system? | 
| 23:26 | eythian | dcook: you have a problem with the letter table | 
| 23:26 | I don't know what it is, but that table screws up a lot | |
| 23:26 | I think deleting everything before you load is the way to go | |
| 23:26 | I have a script to do that. | |
| 23:27 | dcook | It's the message_queue table (I should've mentioned that) | 
| 23:27 | It does have a foreign key pointing back to the borrowers table | |
| 23:28 | eythian | ah, I've seen weird things happen with the letter table. | 
| 23:29 | dcook | I'm wondering if the indexes aren't there... | 
| 23:30 | gmcharlt | dcook: could you paste the output of 'show create table message_queue;' from both dev and production? | 
| 23:30 | jcamins | dcook: I suggest getting the CREATE TABLE command for each table, and diffing them. | 
| 23:32 | dcook | Hmm, they're identical | 
| 23:33 | jcamins | Compare other tables. | 
| 23:33 | * jcamins | would compare all the tables. | 
| 23:33 | pastebot | "dcook" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "message_queue create" (43 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/37 | 
| 23:33 | jcamins | mysqldump --no-data | 
| 23:36 | gmcharlt | dcook: another thing to check -- start a new mysql session, then do SELECT @@FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS; | 
| 23:37 | dcook | jcamins: Dev has a few more tables that didn't get dropped when I downgraded but I can't imagine them getting in the way | 
| 23:37 | jcamins | dcook: message_transport_type? | 
| 23:37 | wahanui | message_transport_type is, like, print. I would like email | 
| 23:38 | dcook | gmcharlt: Still says 1 :/ | 
| 23:41 | gmcharlt | hmm | 
| 23:41 | could you paste the exact error message? | |
| 23:41 | dcook | gmcharlt: Just about to :) | 
| 23:41 | pastebot | "dcook" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "error message" (2 lines) at http://paste.koha-community.org/39 | 
| 23:43 | dcook | I'm going to drop the dev db and try this again | 
| 23:46 | Dang...still no error... | |
| 23:47 | gmcharlt | dcook: select count(*) from suggestions where suggestedby is not null and suggestedby not in (select borrowernumber from borrowers); | 
| 23:47 | * gmcharlt | would be willing to get that the order in question has a suggested where suggestedby = 0 | 
| 23:47 | dcook | 4 | 
| 23:47 | gmcharlt | or refers to a borrower that got deleted after making the suggestion | 
| 23:48 | dcook | I checked the suggestion earlier and it had a borrowernumber which had already been deleted from borrowers | 
| 23:48 | Yeah, the latter | |
| 23:49 | Hmm... | |
| 23:49 | No entry got made in the dev system | |
| 23:50 | I imagine that it returned a warning rather than an error and that warning isn't captured | |
| 23:51 | {'RaiseError' => $ENV{DEBUG}?1:0 }) | |
| 23:51 | I bet the prod system has that environmental variable set and the dev system doesn't | |
| 23:51 | Which is interesting.. | |
| 23:52 | gmcharlt | the apache log in prod would be quite verbose if it were set | 
| 23:53 | dcook | I've often thought it was rather verbose (although not always as much as I would like) | 
| 23:53 | Should find out in about 40 seconds | |
| 23:53 | eythian | it's far too verbose at the moment. | 
| 23:53 | mostly with meaningless warnings | |
| 23:53 | dcook | Yeah, the meaningless warnings suck, that's true | 
| 23:54 | Yep, that was it | |
| 23:54 | Set on prod but not on dev | |
| 23:55 | Apache config is the only thing that would've been different | |
| 23:55 | eythian | hmm. So if debug is not set, you get things failing mostly silently to the user? That's not ideal. | 
| 23:56 | dcook | eythian: Agreed | 
| 23:56 | I think I ran into this same thing elsewhere a few months ago |
