00:07 eythian hi
00:20 mtj heya eythian
00:20 i just spotted this in my newsfeed...
00:20 http://arstechnica.com/securit[…]-of-service-bots/
00:21 eythian yeah, you could write that headline as "people don't patch and firewall properly, get owned."
00:21 mtj i wonder what is Backdoor.Perl.RShell.c
00:21 lol, awesome response
00:22 so true too
00:22 eythian it's a perl web shell
00:23 mtj ah yep, just spotted that too...
00:23 eythian i.e. you drop it on something and then you can interact with it via a network port to control the machine
00:23 mtj ' They said that the attackers modified publicly available proof-of-concept exploit code for CVE-2014-3120 and used it to install a Perl-based Web shell '
00:25 a bit more, for the curious -> https://securelist.com/blog/vi[…]-ddos-and-profit/
01:14 irma_ joined #koha
01:26 mtj peeps.. anyone know if its possible to restrict r/w access to a branches bibs/items - for a user category?
01:27 ...ive taken a quick look about, but cant see any option to do this (in 3.14.x)
01:29 dcook Not that I know of
01:29 mtj ie: stop users from branch-A, to view/edit bibs from branch-B
01:30 dcook: me too :)
01:30 (i just ask, in case)
01:31 dcook Actually, even with IndependentBranches turned on, there is a lot of... well...lack of independence
01:31 eythian it's not very thoroughly implemented, I'm given to understand.
01:31 * dcook nods
01:32 wizzyrea well it turned out that nobody actually used it that way
01:32 and people who tried, gave up.
01:32 rangi yeah it was more independent the first time round
01:32 then everyone was all
01:32 oohhh we didnt mean actually independent
01:32 wizzyrea SHARE ALL THE THINGS
01:32 rangi but we cant tell you what we actually mean
01:32 try and guess
01:32 wizzyrea ^^^^^
01:33 rangi and we will tell you if its wrong
01:33 wizzyrea that. so much that.
01:33 and, it's not a technical problem, it's a people problem.
01:33 rangi *nod*
01:33 dcook Well...
01:33 I'd say both
01:33 rangi its a technical solution to a people problem
01:33 wizzyrea it's a technical problem because the people can't behave themselves.
01:33 dcook There are a few holes in the independence as it presents itself
01:34 I'm willing to say it's a problem :p
01:34 wizzyrea I think libraries that want to do it like that
01:34 dcook I don't think there's an easy technical solution as people policy varies too much.
01:34 wizzyrea jsut ought to get their own koha.
01:34 rangi the whole idea of independent branches is a people problem
01:35 i cant trust my colleagues, please make it so they cant do things i think they shouldn't
01:35 wizzyrea ^^^
01:35 mtj i think i agree rangi
01:35 * dcook ponders
01:35 rangi thats what makes it so hard to build
01:35 dcook I'd say also fear of accidents
01:35 rangi because everyone has different levels of trust in their workmates
01:35 wizzyrea if you have ever looked at moodle permissions
01:36 there is a system built around people problems if I've ever seen one and the rules are madness.
01:36 * dcook is a bit terrified of learning management systems
01:36 wizzyrea that way be dragons
01:36 rangi if you really want independence
01:36 install packages
01:36 run 5 instances
01:36 wizzyrea ^^^
01:36 rangi done
01:36 dcook And install 5 databases of 600,000+ MeSH authorities?
01:37 rangi yep
01:37 dcook Seems a bit inefficient
01:37 rangi disk is cheap
01:37 mtj i remember the 1st time a librarian explained to me that staff on other branches 'gamed' the holds queue on certain items
01:37 dcook rangi: There's only so much time to index though
01:37 I suppose you only need to re-index on occasion
01:37 fully re-index
01:37 rangi for authorities once a year if that
01:37 wizzyrea peer pressure at the system meeting is remarkably effective at curbing that.
01:37 dcook mtj: "gamed"?
01:38 mtj well, just cheated really dcook :)
01:38 dcook But how?
01:38 wizzyrea that assumes you have meetings.
01:38 dcook wizzyrea: If it's a library, there are meetings
01:38 Many meetings
01:38 rangi or, they could spec it out, how they want it actually work and people could build it
01:38 mtj they would reshuffle the holds queue... somehow
01:38 wizzyrea the usuall kind of hold queue nonsense I'd reckon, bumping their pet borrowers to the top
01:38 etc
01:38 rangi but this wave your arms and say independent
01:39 is never gonna result in something anyone is happy with
01:39 mtj dcook:  not on a koha system here... just some random ILS
01:39 dcook rangi: Agreed. That's one of the reasons I dislike having the preference there to begin with
01:39 wizzyrea independent = I can't see the others items? or I can see them but not edit them? or can only edit certain fields?
01:39 dcook There isn't really a spec for it
01:39 wizzyrea same, borrowers?
01:40 dcook Ah, right, borrowers...that's another annoyance
01:40 wizzyrea I can see your borrowers? I can edit them? I can not see them at all?
01:40 dcook If you have 5 instances, you need to do patron management 5 times
01:40 wizzyrea: Totes
01:40 mtj: Right, I just don't understand how they'd cheat the holds queue :S. Librarians are an interesting breed though.
01:41 wizzyrea the patron search has gotten a lot better in this regard.
01:41 cheating the hold queue is time honoured tradition in libraries.
01:41 dcook As in, there's a hold on it, but Imma check it out anyway?
01:41 (particularly to myself?)
01:41 wizzyrea as in, I like this person so I'll bump them up
01:41 * dcook shudders
01:41 wizzyrea or I don't like that person, I like this other person better, I'll rearrange this.
01:42 dcook Reminds me of the 3 hour class we had on ethics...
01:42 It was horrible
01:42 btw
01:42 wizzyrea also there's a hold on it but I'll check it out to this person anyway
01:42 dcook :(
01:42 Mind you, I guess you don't necessarily have librarians doing a lot of the checking out...
01:42 wizzyrea mind, I had a library at NEKLS that would allow a borrower with a book in hand that they had gotten off the shelf issue an item even if it had a hold on it.
01:43 dcook That is a tough situation
01:43 wizzyrea (because, for example, the library hadn't pulled that item off of the shelf)
01:43 (yet)
01:43 dcook Righto
01:43 wizzyrea and it seemed unfair to take the book out of that borrower's hand
01:43 dcook On one hand, there's a hold on it. On the other hand, they have retrieved the book.
01:43 Yep
01:43 wizzyrea I think what we learn from this is that the hold queue isn't sacred really.
01:43 dcook I suppose that's why some libraries don't allow holds where items are on shelf ;)
01:44 wizzyrea it is and it isn't
01:44 you definitely don't want the system messing up the queuing.
01:44 but people messing up the queuing can't really be avoided unless you simply don't allow it
01:45 dcook Or don't allow holds where items are on shelf
01:46 Although that sucks if you're not a regular library goer
01:46 Or...charge money for holds so that patrons stop using your library all together
01:46 * dcook is still bitter about his local public library
01:51 mtj wizzyrea:  the weird twist to my story was that there was nasty sabotaging happening, between staff from 'rival' branches
01:53 the idea of admining (and/or developing) an ILS where your users are that badly behaved O_o
01:54 wizzyrea I'm pretty bitter about my public library too.
01:55 mtj still... you could just add better logging for those 'hold' events, then run a weekly report to catch those users?
01:55 wizzyrea yeah, I filed a bug about that ages ago
01:55 logging for hold queue modification
01:55 or add reserve modification to the bib modification logs
01:55 something like that
01:55 mtj good spotting wiz
01:56 yep
01:56 wizzyrea http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=6890
01:56 huginn 04Bug 6890: enhancement, P5 - low, ---, mjr, Failed QA , Add reserves to modification logging
01:57 wizzyrea ohh, it was getting close too.
01:57 boo.
01:58 mtj meh, just a little fixup needed
02:58 eythian https://packages.qa.debian.org[…]rchange-perl.html <-- rangi, migrated into testing
02:59 rangi sweet
03:00 @later tell ashimema Colin's perl module is now in debian testing https://packages.qa.debian.org[…]rchange-perl.html
03:00 huginn rangi: The operation succeeded.

03:55 mtj rangi, very cool ^^
04:52 dpk joined #koha
04:55 dpk hi all.  Just upgraded from 3.14.06 to 3.16.02 and there were 5 update errors on the DB.  Is anyone here able to assess whether I need to worry about them?
04:55 eythian yes
04:55 put them in a pastebin and put the link here
04:56 wahanui: paste
04:56 wahanui i guess paste is found at http://paste.koha-community.org
04:56 eythian (also, if they're all "something already exists" type messages, you're fine.)
05:00 dpk some are not.   http://pastebin.com/mdFZT9pD
05:01 eythian hmm
05:02 the first and third are fine, but the rest are a bit dubious
05:02 oh, the second may be OK too, hard to tell.
05:03 yeah, the second isn't OK either
05:03 dpk So what's my next step?
05:04 eythian I don't understand why the issn one is happening, it drops the index immediately previously.
05:04 Are you familiar with SQL?
05:04 dpk I can do some basics.
05:06 eythian In that case, I'd have a look in updatedatabase.pl at the lines mentioned, and then check the schema in the actual database to see if it now matches. If it doesn't, make it match :)
05:07 it really just seems to be the indexes around biblioitems.issn that're the issue
05:07 and that ctId thing
05:07 you may need to add it.
05:08 That should have been added way back in 3.01, I don't know why you don't have it.
05:16 cait joined #koha

05:23 dpk Looks like I already have collections_tracking_id int(11).
05:25 eythian ahh
05:25 yeah, that would be expected
05:25 in that case, it's probably OK
05:26 cait ew

05:30 dcook Nothing is as it should be!
05:30 cait i don't like super warm weather, so it's not that bad fo rme
05:30 dpk I don't know what that column is supposed to be…
05:31 eythian if in doubt, look in installer/data/mysql/kohastructure.sql
05:31 * eythian has to go now, later all.
05:31 dcook later eythian
05:37 dpk can someone show me what "show index from biblioitems;" shows for a system running 3.16.02?
05:38 Looking at kohastructure.sql...
05:43 I think I fixed it.
05:52 BobB joined #koha
06:29 dcook Oh, IE7. Why you make me so crazy...
06:31 cait dcook: glad someone works outhow to fix ie bugs

06:31 bbiab
06:31 cait left #koha
06:36 dcook @later tell cait This one is for DSpace :/. I think my brain is going to leak out of my ear. It's rather mind-boggling.
06:36 huginn dcook: The operation succeeded.
06:44 dcook "margin-left:0px;"
06:44 But of course...

08:00 morning cait
08:01 cait morning ashimema
08:13 ashimema matts, I've tried clarifying Tomas's main point on the CAS patch.  Apologies, I think it was me that sent that bug off on a tangent by not fully reading Tomas's first comment.
08:13 atheia joined #koha
08:14 ashimema In Tomas's words.. it's not he OPACBaseURL stuff holding it back..
08:15 I think he's working on regression tests for it and trying to prove to himself that the patch fixes the problem directly rather than coincidentally.
08:15 atheia morning all!
08:15 ashimema morning atheia

08:16 ashimema @wunder great ashby, uk
08:16 huginn ashimema: Error: No such location could be found.
08:16 matts ashimema, just read your comment
08:16 ashimema :)
08:16 matts I totally agree: opacbaseurl stuff should be discussed somewhere else
08:16 ashimema sorry mate.. didn't mean to hold the patch back.. i misread to start with..
08:17 atheia @wunder brussels, belgium
08:17 matts and as for the test, jajm will write one today hopefully
08:17 huginn atheia: The current temperature in Brussels, Belgium is 18.0°C (9:50 AM CEST on July 30, 2014). Conditions: Scattered Clouds. Humidity: 77%. Dew Point: 14.0°C. Pressure: 29.95 in 1014 hPa (Steady).

08:17 ashimema hmm.. I thought wunder could cope with lat and long.
08:17 excellent news.. I'm usre that will make tcohen happy ;)
08:18 @wunder 51.925, -0.160
08:18 huginn ashimema: Error: No such location could be found.
08:19 cait :)
08:20 probably it was me - because i noted that it expected a different setting
08:20 the intention was to make it easier for testers
08:20 ashimema Yeah.. lots on confusion over that bug.
08:21 @wunder 51.911 -0.186

09:30 matts ashimema, is the shib single sign out always enabled, or is there a config option ?
09:36 and could you explain a bit more what <categorycode> is used for in koha-conf.xml ? It is unclear to me...
09:37 cait :)
09:37 i hope he will be back soon
09:38 ashimema be with you in a tic matts.. in a call with a customer at the second.
09:38 matts ah... customers ! :)
09:39 ashimema indeed ;)
09:52 cait hi khall :)
10:15 khall mornin cait! mornin all!
10:16 ashimema right..
10:16 i'm back
10:16 morning khall
10:17 interesting question matts
10:17 khall thanks to everyone ( ashimema,  bkriegel, tcohen ) involved with getting bug 9000. That's definitely a personal record for me! Submitted one day, pushed to master the next!
10:17 huginn 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]w_bug.cgi?id=9000 normal, P5 - low, ---, kyle, Pushed to Master , misc/cronjobs/rss/rss.pl uses HTP
10:17 ashimema it's obviosly only enabled when shibboleth is enabled.. but when shibobleth is enabled it is always enabled as part of it yes..
10:18 However.. there are caviats with that.. in that your have to setup single sign out correctyl at the IdP and SP ends outside of koha first.
10:18 in short.. it 'should' 'do the right thing'
10:19 will move to private chat.. sure not everyone wnats to hear my ranting ;)

12:29 the cas one
12:29 cait morning tcohen :)
12:29 ashimema did you spot jajm's one in the bug?
12:29 tcohen yes
12:29 ashimema great..
12:29 i've not looked yet.. just wanted to make sure you'd caught up before ploughing into work ;)
12:29 collum joined #koha
12:30 cait right eythian wants us to watch our for tests in t  - making sure they really don't need a dbb
12:30 because that breaks the build
12:30 ashimema it's coming in thick and fast at the moment
12:30 cait hm?
12:30 tcohen jajm's needs access to sysprefs actually
12:31 ashimema assume he's mocking those though?
12:31 if at all possible.. i prefer to mock the db,pref and config stuff myself ;)
12:31 oleonard joined #koha
12:31 ashimema i 'hate' db dependant tests ;)
12:32 easier to write, but harder to consistently test
12:32 jajm tcohen, i can rewrite patch with syspref mock if you want
12:33 tcohen ah, that'd be great
12:33 ashimema awesome.. jajm++
12:33 tcohen jajm++
12:34 oleonard Hi everyone
12:35 tcohen jajm: could you just move it to db_dependent?
12:35 my feeling is that we will write more tests soon for it
12:35 all db_dependent
12:36 you could just do my $opac_base_url = C4::Context->preference('OpacBaseURL') // '';
12:36 also, the test could look like
12:36 is(C4::Auth_with_cas::_url_with_get_params($cgi),
12:36 "$opac_base_url/cgi-bin/ko​ha/opac-user.pl?bar=baz",
12:36 "_url_with_get_params should return URL without deleted parameters (Bug 12398)");

12:37 oleonard joined #koha
12:37 jajm tcohen, can't we have both t/Auth_with_cas.t and t/db_dependent/Auth_with_cas.t ?
12:38 tcohen jajm: yes, do what u prefer
12:38 i'll push whatever test the QA team passes
12:39 jajm ok
12:40 tcohen i'm still not sure what is the benefit
12:40 as i understand it, non db-dependent tests should exist to make sure no side effects take place when the DB is set
12:41 but we have a situation where we indeed need the DB
12:41 but are mocking it
12:41 i'll just put it in db_dependent
12:42 s/ll/d/
12:43 matts Just a reminder, I think no one took a look at bug 12631 yet... If anyone has the time, or the will, it will be greatly appreciated :)

12:46 ashimema or a time machine cait..
12:46 cait or cloning?
12:46 wahanui hmmm... cloning is tough though. They need to have the same physical and mental abilities of me now...but they need to gain them instanteously
12:46 ashimema then we could pause time for a while to go over the backlog
12:46 cait but seriously, sign off queue is huge
12:46 and in needs qa are lots of good feature sthat take a lot of time to work through

12:47 ashimema to be fair.. if the sign-off queue was smaller, then the signed-off queue would be large so the poor qa's would be the limiting factor instead.
12:47 we're stuck either way ;)
12:48 cait yeah, we need hands everywhere...
12:49 matts About 12631, it's not a feature, it's fixing a broken behavior ;)
12:49 Maybe we could hire monkeys
12:49 cait clever monkeys?
12:50 matts Not necessarily
12:50 If we have enough time, any kind of monkeys will do the work

19:19 ashimema ok.. random question to throw out there to people
19:20 when mapping one thing to another and providing a default for when one end of the mapping is empty whats clearer
19:20 <A default="thing">B</A>
19:20 or
19:21 <A is="B">default</A>
19:23 cait i like the first
19:23 hm how does ldap do it?
19:25 jcamins ashimema: the second is closer to how data binding systems like Angular do things.
19:26 But that's not a vote.
19:26 ashimema the second is how ldap does it
19:27 I see.. so doing it the second way is 'generally more consistent with how it's done elsewhere'.. I wondered why ldap did it that way as it seems totally unclear to me.
19:28 jcamins Well, "is" may be the worst label EVER.
19:30 cait what ldap is missing, is being able to map from something to a koha code
19:30 like a patron category code
19:30 that would be really helpful
19:31 or a branchcode
19:32 jcamins cait: ldap is also missing a certain pleasantness of usage.
19:32 wahanui okay, jcamins.
19:32 ashimema hmm..
19:32 jcamins ldap?
19:32 wahanui it has been said that ldap is missing a certain pleasantness of usage.
19:32 pianohacker ah, so say the LDAP sends something like 'a' or 'b', mapping that to 'cat_a' or 'cat_b'?
19:32 ashimema well is was going to add in some basic string manipulation to the shibboleth config..
19:32 of the lines
19:33 <userid is="email" regex="s/@somewhere.com//g">default</userid>
19:33 maybe a further followup could be something like
19:34 jcamins pianohacker: I was thinking something more along the lines of mapping the configuration of LDAP to an API request to send the poor benighted soul doing it a stiff drink. But that might be good too.
19:34 ashimema <userid is="uid" is_really="ccode">default</userid>
19:34 pianohacker jcamins: unless everclear is legal in NY I don't think it would be strong enough
19:34 jcamins pianohacker: I don't think it is. Good point.
19:36 ashimema another followup I was thinking of was allowing a config based upon finding a particular field and value..
19:37 ie. if found attribute called affiliation with value student use one set of mapping..
19:37 if found attribute called affiliation with value staff use another set of mapping.
19:41 hankbank joined #koha
19:51 cait ashimema: that would work too
19:52 pianohacker: yeah basically hte codes in koha and the codes in ldap don't always match but now they have to, some flexibility there would be good
19:53 ashimema you almost need a submap cait..
19:54 cait yeah it doesn#t fit into a one liner
19:54 more like an if/else construct
19:54 ashimema a map to map 'words' returned by ldap/shibboleth attributes to code/words in koha.
19:54 that could lead to one very complex config file :(

21:32 tcohen wizzyrea: yes! this one https://wordpress.org/plugins/google-maps-widget/
21:32 haven't tried it yet
21:32 but looks it does the job
21:32 thanks!
21:32 wizzyrea what is the main goal? Just show a map?
21:33 * wizzyrea is nosy
21:35 tcohen wizzyrea: i need to put two maps for the kohacon section
21:35 those locations I sent to the list, actually
21:35 (in reply to nicole)
21:35 wizzyrea *nod*
21:47 mmm actually I don't think that does what you think it does
21:47 that puts maps in a widget. You want them on a page eh
21:47 tcohen ^
21:48 * tcohen doesn't understand the difference heh
21:48 wizzyrea :) sok, that's my job.
21:48 tcohen widgets are stuff you move around ?
21:49 "put this widget showing this on the left"
21:49 ?
21:49 wizzyrea widgets go in certain areas of the site that are (usually, but not always) visible on every page (or type of page)
21:49 example, sidebars or footers.
21:50 pastebot "wizzyrea" at 127.0.0.1 pasted "I think you want to simply embed this in the page instead" (1 line) at http://paste.koha-community.org/124
21:50 wizzyrea (for example)
21:51 you can get at that by clicking the gear at the bottom right, and selecting "share and embed"
21:51 tcohen ah
21:51 wizzyrea then pick the tab "Embed map"
21:52 you may want to use google.com for your maps so they don't come out in ... is it portuguese?
21:52 tcohen ah
21:52 wizzyrea or spanish? I'm sorry to be ignorant.
21:52 tcohen spanish
21:52 wizzyrea spanish :)
21:53 does that seem like what you were looking for or...
21:53 am I totally wrong
