00:05 oa10712 Are there any known issues with some of the barcode types? Neither of the 2of5 formats have been rendering properly on the .pdfs. Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask
00:06 eythian it's the right place to ask, I just have no answer for your question.
00:08 dcook oa10712: No idea. We just use Code39, and that works great.
00:08 You might try one of the mailing lists though
00:08 http://koha-community.org/supp[…]ha-mailing-lists/
00:08 oa10712 Ok, I will try there next. Thank you

00:35 huginn` eythian: The current temperature in Wellington, New Zealand is 21.0°C (12:00 PM NZST on April 07, 2015). Conditions: Mostly Cloudy. Humidity: 73%. Dew Point: 16.0°C. Pressure: 30.06 in 1018 hPa (Falling).
00:35 eythian dew point of 16° is weird.

01:03 huginn` dcook: The current temperature in Sydney, New South Wales is 22.0°C (10:30 AM AEST on April 07, 2015). Conditions: Scattered Clouds. Humidity: 57%. Dew Point: 13.0°C. Pressure: 29.74 in 1007 hPa (Steady).
01:03 dcook Not too shabby
01:04 eythian: I'm starting to feel some of your authorities pain
01:04 Ahh, wait. I think I figured it out... sort of.
01:04 No... maybe not
01:05 A "Main entry" search returns the result... but not "Anywhere", "Heading match", or "Main entry ($a only)".
01:07 cdickinson joined #koha

01:12 Surprising though..

02:49 eythian rangi: what's the release date (roughly) for 3.20?
02:50 rangi may 22
02:50 argentinian time, so the 23rd for us
02:51 eythian OK good. I'm going to push for retiring squeeze and precise for that release.
02:51 dcook @later tell ashimema Huh... just ran into the DBIx::Connector thing as well...
02:51 huginn` dcook: The operation succeeded.
02:51 rangi sounds good to me
02:51 eythian we've got a patch that would require an unreasonable amount of effort to backport modules for
02:51 rangi yeah
02:51 eythian and jessie release is April 25.
02:51 rangi yeah
02:52 dcook What's the plan for Zebra and Jessie?
02:52 eythian I don't have one.
02:52 Short of packaging a new version myself, it's a tricky one.
02:53 rangi post freeze, we can agitate to get the new version in, its just bugfix eh?
02:53 or did they load in new features as well?
02:53 dcook rangi: yeah, it's just a bugfix
02:53 I don't think they did anything else in 2.0.60 but that fix
02:53 rangi yeah, then we can probably get the zebra maintainer for debian to put the new version in
02:53 dcook Sweeet
02:53 eythian yeah, that's quite possible
02:54 dcook That'd be ideal
02:54 Doesn't Ubuntu drop a new version soon as well?
02:54 rangi yep april
02:54 15.04
02:55 eythian should fire up koha on a beta of that
02:55 dcook good idea
02:55 I think 15.04 will have Zebra 2.0.59 as well
02:56 rangi most likely its usually pretty close to whatever is in debian testing
02:57 dcook Once Debian have 2.0.60, would we contact the Zebra maint for Ubuntu then?
02:57 I don't suppose they would package it separately
02:58 eythian hmm
02:58 I'm not sure
02:58 rangi they usually just pull from debian anyway
02:58 eythian well, they snapshot from unstable
02:59 yeah, vivid is getting 2.0.59
02:59 I wouldn't expect debian to update to 2.0.60, but they pay pull in the fix
02:59 *may
02:59 even better if someone else does it and attaches a debdiff...
03:00 dcook debdiff?
03:00 eythian like a diff, but for debs
03:02 rangi interestingly
03:02 vincent danjean
03:02 was the first person to try to package Koha
03:02 (the debian maintainer for zebra)
03:02 http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/c[…].44-3.1/changelog
03:03 i reckon theres a reasonable chance we could get the fix in
03:04 dcook It would be great. Otherwise, people using ICU might get a bit of a shock
03:05 I think eythian already has an open bug report?

04:07 dcook Hmm, it went for blue skies to storm to blue skies again here..
04:08 cdickinson looking at that, it'll stop raining eventually, but yeah, I feel sorry for everyone else here at work haha
04:12 AmitG hi
04:12 rangi
04:15 dcook Hmm getting that problem that cait pointed out the other day..
04:15 cdickinson he just left :(
04:16 eythian dcook: cait points out too many problems for that to be a useful specifier.
04:16 dcook hehe
04:17 It was the one about having a problem opening "updatedatabase_2015-04-07T14:16:45.log"
04:17 It looks like it was just a permission issue
04:17 Hmm...
04:18 That might be more of a problem for package installs... this is a git install
04:20 Hmm... had a time out during the database update as well... but that might be a proxy issue
04:20 eythian oh yeah
04:20 I saw that too
04:21 dcook Hmm... is Apache run as root on Debian?
04:21 The logs all seem to be owned by root...
04:22 eythian sorta
04:23 normally it launches as root and changes to www-data, but we subvert that process in the packages
04:23 dcook O_o
04:23 Interesting
04:23 wahanui rumour has it Interesting is sometimes good and sometimes bad
04:23 eythian it launches as root to read things like SSL keys on startup
04:24 at least, I think that's how it works.
04:24 dcook Makes sense that it would start off as root and switch
04:24 How do we subvert it though?
04:24 Actually, something I've been meaning to try..
04:25 The help files are in theory editable
04:25 But I would think that would cause problems with a package install..
04:25 Well, not necessarily problems, but the sharing of user-generated HTML
04:25 eythian we have it change to the specific koha user based on the virtual host
04:25 yeah
04:26 they either shouldn't be editable, or (better) they should save somewhere so that they only apply to that instance.
04:26 dcook I like the latter idea :)
04:26 wizzyrea I suppose it's not a terrible notion to keep the edited help in the db
04:26 ?
04:26 and fall back to the templates (or display it in addition)
04:26 eythian that is probably better
04:27 messing with the filesystem is always a pain
04:27 wizzyrea not sure why we did that in the first place :/
04:27 pretty sure I wasn't involved at the time.
04:27 :P
04:27 dcook hehe
04:28 How do we change the Apache user with the packages?
04:28 I'm so intrigued now..
04:29 AssignUserID?
04:30 eythian it's a feature of MPM-ITK
04:30 bshum joined #koha
04:30 eythian in fact, it's its primary feature
04:30 dcook That's neat
04:32 I guess that means that the package installs shouldn't run into that "updatedatabase...log" problem
04:32 Although I wonder why the intranet-error.log is owned by root rather than my devkoha user
04:33 I suppose they're probably part of different processes
04:33 With ErrorLog happening at a higher level than the processes executed using the user designated by AssignUserID
04:34 * dcook stops rambling
04:34 dcook This is what happens when I get hungry...
04:34 Or when I'm breathing..
04:34 eythian the logs should be owned by the koha user
04:34 oh
04:35 maybe not
04:35 no, mostly owned by root
04:35 I guess they get opened when the server starts up before it's vhosted
04:38 dcook Imagine so
04:38 I wonder then...
04:38 What the "updatedatabase...log" will be owned by
04:38 eythian I think I had the problem that it was never created
04:38 and that's why it was dying.
04:38 dcook Yeah, that's the problem I had
04:39 Our Apache runs as its own user though, so when I fixed the permissions for my install, that did the trick
04:39 But that's a non-package install
04:40 Might be worth someone installing the master packages and seeing what happens when new database updates come down
04:40 eythian I don't know what will happen with the packages.
04:40 though, master packages are in the repo, someone could test them :)
04:40 dcook True true :)
04:41 Well, I think they'd need to install the master packages and then need to wait for an update
04:41 eythian yes, I suppose
04:41 dcook Unless the atomic update has changed installs as well
04:41 eythian or just put an old db in
04:42 dcook Possibly yeah
04:42 I admit I haven't followed this atomic update thing much
04:44 eythian I don't think it's actually in place yet is it?
04:45 dcook It looks like it's in master
04:45 As that log is part of it
04:45 The last two entries in mine are:
04:45 DEV atomic update : hourlyloans.sql
04:45 DEV atomic update : oai_sets.sql
04:45 Which... I don't know whether or not they're even supposed to be there
04:45 eythian oh, very recent
04:46 hmm
04:46 bshum joined #koha
04:46 wizzyrea that moment when you think to yourself "gosh, it's been a long time since I haven't been able to make THAT work" and then you realise zebra isn't running.
04:46 derrrrrrr
04:47 eythian possibly since bug 13068?
04:47 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=13068 enhancement, P5 - low, ---, paul.poulain, Pushed to Master , New feature for DB update and sandbox
04:47 dcook Good ol' Zebra
04:47 eythian wizzyrea: I do that all the time
04:47 dcook eythian: Yeah, I think that's the one
04:47 Hmm, it looks a bit weird
04:47 wizzyrea believe it or not, that is actually comforting. :P
04:47 eythian it's why I have on my ES list to give a sensible response if you can't connect to the ES server.
04:47 rather than "no results"
04:47 wizzyrea <3
04:47 dcook hehe
04:47 wizzyrea my hero
04:47 dcook eythian++
04:48 wizzyrea eythian++ for sure
04:48 dcook I really need to grab a super late lunch...
04:48 Laters if I don't see you NZers when I get back
04:48 eythian bye
05:12 ug virtualbox has stopped working properly for me
05:12 time to find a new virtualisation system
05:29 bshum joined #koha
05:37 dcook eythian: That doesn't sound good :(
05:37 eythian and I can't make libvirt work either
05:38 dcook :(
05:38 I admit I've been delaying upgrading Vbox as I didn't want to break anything..
05:38 Not that I use it for anything too important any way though..
05:39 eythian I'm wondering if the module has got itself into a weird state.
05:39 I might try rebooting.
05:39 dcook Not a bad idea
05:39 malik__ joined #koha
05:39 malik__ Hello to All
05:39 dcook hey malik__
05:40 malik__ can anyone help me ragarding sms service in koha
05:40 dcook Alas, I don't know anything about that one.
05:41 You might have better luck on one of the listservs: http://lists.koha-community.or[…]/mailman/listinfo
05:41 malik__ i have API of a sms service provider in pakistan but i can't configure it
05:41 okk let me check
05:46 eythian joined #koha
05:49 eythian ah, that seemed to fix it.
05:50 dcook :D
05:50 eythian I probably could have fixed that without a reboot actually, it just didn't give me useful error messages to diagnose the problem.
05:50 I think a kernel update had removed stuff so that new vms couldn't start.
05:52 dcook Yeah, sometimes I debate the merits of restarting vs finding the root problem..
05:52 Well, think about debating :p
05:52 eythian probably all it would have needed was to reinstall the dkms module and do a restart on the service

06:10 I think I was actually sweating when I got back from lunch
06:10 eythian at least you don't have 94% humidity.
06:10 I blame daylight saving going away.
06:10 dcook That's true
06:10 eythian that's clearly messed with the weather.
06:10 dcook People always say it's so humid here, but I think they might be wrong..
06:11 heh
06:11 Reminds me of last night
06:11 I was all "It's 6pm! Where did the sun go?!"

06:18 eythian OK, now I have a jessie VM for testing koha on. I think it's time to go brave the elements and actually do the testing tomorrow.

08:59 wahanui hmmm... magnuse is a Norwegian giant.
08:59 andreashm haha
08:59 magnuse :-)
09:04 andreashm is there a way to automatically generate invoices for lost books in Koha? anyone know?
09:09 sophie_m longoverdues.pl ? andreashm
09:13 andreashm sophie_m: doesn't that just generate a fee? not an invoice? I need to look more closely at that script.
09:14 sophie_m yes, it's a fee, sorry
09:20 cait hm would be a good enh to also generate a notice there i
09:22 andreashm yeah
09:23 so the only way to create invoices in Koha for late/lost books is to do it manually?
09:41 Viktor joined #koha
09:51 cait right now, yes
09:51 i think it would be not too hard maybe to have a new notice, but not sure
09:53 andreashm thanks cait
09:55 but how to other libraries handle invoicing, even manually? do they generate the lost books report and go by that on what to invoice, or is there some other smart way to generate list of what books to invoice? =)
09:55 cait hm i think one way might be an sql report and then generate a letter with an office suite
09:55 kivilahtio andreashm: I have some code lying around
09:56 andreashm: lemme just think a bit on what you are trying to achieve
09:56 andreashm: I am currently working on rewriting the overdue and claiming module we have
09:57 andreashm: There are some critical issue in the way Koha handles 3rd party integrations and I am trying to find a way around them
09:57 cait Joubu: close to the tax patches now :)
09:57 kivilahtio maunly handling situations gone wrong
09:59 andreashm kivilahtio: at the moment, in our old prop. system, we run a report on books that have recently been marked as lost (long overdue) and then invoices are automatically generated. so we can then send them via email or snail mail. there are to many to handle manually.
09:59 (or, it can be done of course, but would require a lot of hours of work)
09:59 Joubu cait: :)
10:01 cait i'd really like to find someone for the sip emulator and the syspref caching...
10:02 andreashm cait: yeah, an sql report might be the answer. and then we could probably fix the invoice generating and sendout in our Viola system. but other libraries in Sweden have asked about this feature too, and I was hoping something was built into Koha.
10:03 cait andreashm: i'd encourage you to look in bugzila and write an enh request :)
10:03 if there isn't one yet
10:03 andreashm cait: I'll do just that - search bugzilla atleast.
10:08 kivilahtio andreashm: http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]odule_rewrite_RFC
10:16 andreashm kivilahtio: thanks. but won'tsome of that clash with http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]otice_Enhancement
10:16 ?
10:17 cait kivilahtio: hm, not sure, does it cover the lost item process? (what happens after the overdues) yet?
10:20 andreashm_away of for lunch, bbl
10:20 kivilahtio cait: we have a cronjobs for setting items to lost status?
10:20 cait yep
10:20 longoverdue i think
10:20 we don't use that yet, but it's a rather old one
10:21 oh it has pictures now - i have to reread the spec
10:21 kivilahtio yup, it looks pretty nice
10:23 cait longoverdues? it recently got a bunch of confguration options as system preferences
10:27 meh - is it possible that for calculating the pickup date we don't check the holidays calendar?
10:28 yep... it totally looks like that is the case
10:35 kivilahtio cait: yes
10:36 cait: I think we have a commit for that somewhere
10:39 cait found it 12535

12:49 octo19 Hello. How do I force an update of the Koha library via CLI? I want to make a cron job that updates every minute.
12:51 tcohen you mean have your records indexed?
12:52 octo19 yes
12:53 tcohen how did you get your Koha instlaled?
12:53 what instructions did you follow?
12:54 octo19 I inherited our current system. I have no idea how it was installed. I can tell you it is version 3.12 and running in openSUSE 12.3.
12:55 I am trying to update koha and openSUSE but the readout keeps telling me everything is outdated so it can't update.

12:57 tcohen can't you install ubuntu?
12:57 octo19 Sure, but I need the database we already have to transfer
12:57 tcohen you are looking for a cron configuration running the indexer
12:57 octo19 is that easy?
12:57 yes I am
12:57 tcohen it is really easy
12:58 to move koha to another box
12:58 octo19 Koha recommends Debian, but I know more about Ubuntu. Is one easier than the other?
12:59 tcohen they are both the same
12:59 Dyrcona joined #koha
12:59 tcohen regarding the install procedure
12:59 octo19 I want to have a system with little-to-no user involvement.
13:00 nlegrand octo19: I'm a bit puzzled, you're looking to update the software or the search engine indexation?
13:00 tcohen http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]ubuntu_-_packages
13:00 octo19 Currently our koha system is running in a VM
13:00 tcohen follow that ^^^^^^
13:00 to get an instance created
13:00 once you figure how to do it
13:01 just delete its database
13:01 and put a dump from the old one
13:01 instead
13:01 octo19 nlegrand i need to both, but my initial question was to update the index.
13:02 tcohen ah so adding the debian repo to ubuntu will make everything run smoothly?
13:02 tcohen exactly
13:02 akafred (I would say debian is a little bit less hassle.)
13:02 nlegrand octo19: ok :) did you check the crontab of the unix account dedicated to koha ?
13:02 tcohen please pick 14.04
13:03 rocio left #koha
13:03 tcohen or debian 7, which is on top of which Koha is usully tested
13:03 octo19 akafred less of a hassle to run or install?
13:03 akafred install

13:04 octo19 nlegrand yes i checked the user and root crontabs
13:04 tcohen the only difference is that Ubuntu 14.04 ships with apache 2.4 in which you'd need to run a command from the appendix before doing the koha-common install
13:05 http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]g_apache2-mpm-itk.
13:06 octo19 what version of apache do i need for koha?
13:06 or does it matter?

13:08 tcohen octo19: don't worry about that
13:08 follow the instructions and you are safe
13:08 if you feel like trying debian
13:08 http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]ki/Koha_on_Debian
13:09 follow that, which have been updated recently
13:09 octo19 great.
13:09 tcohen thanks for the tips!

14:34 cait Joubu: maybe you could take a look at bug 13957? i think it might be related to the recent changes for patron search
14:34 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=13957 normal, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , Patron autocomplete shows NULL in list of results
14:35 cait but... there are lots of bugs to pick from... /me has a bug filing day today
14:35 searching bugzilla can make you a bit paranoid about bugs :)
14:38 carmen joined #koha
14:40 Joubu cait: will have a lookg
14:42 cait filing the suggestions/bugs that came up during our user meeting a few weeks ago (finally)
14:52 Joubu++ super fast :)
14:54 Joubu: there is a similar bug in acq - int he table of received items
14:54 all the empty fields go null
14:55 bug 10388
14:55 huginn` 04Bug http://bugs.koha-community.org[…]_bug.cgi?id=10388 normal, P5 - low, ---, koha-bugs, NEW , acq edited items showing 'null's
14:57 cait :)
14:58 Joubu cait: I don't reproduce this one
14:58 cait hmm did you edit the item?
14:58 Joubu but on the screenshot, barcode is "null" on the first row, but "" on the second
14:58 cait using the edit link on the recieve page
14:58 it happens when you edit it, for example to add the barcode label
14:58 Joubu no..., trying again
14:59 ok got it :)
14:59 cait sorry for feeding you with bugs :) just thought if this is similar might be an easy one now
15:00 Joubu yep, should be easy to fix too

16:31 misilot With the patron import, if I want to blank out passwords can I sent NULL in the csv import file?
16:32 cait just leave it empty
16:32 ''
16:33 and the passwrod field should have a ! later i think - indictaing there is no password set
16:33 misilot cait: ok thanks. Trying to build the template to hand to another department to get user loads
16:39 are streetnumber and streettype actually used? I don't see them in the edit user, so just curious
16:44 cait streettype appears when you cnfigure them in the admin area
16:44 misilot cait: ah ok thank you
16:44 cait streetnumber should be visible - but maybe check borrowerunwantedfields of you don't see it
16:45 misilot cait: yup it is hidden. thanks for answering my curiosity :)
16:47 dateenrolled should get auto populated on import?
16:48 cait it will be set automatically with today's date if not in your data
16:48 misilot ok thanks
16:50 that's great :) lots of records will be updated once I get this working :)
16:50 cait be careful - if you want to update a borrower with the passwords
16:51 i think they might be overriden/set to null if you have the column in the spreadsheet
16:51 I'd test with a single borrower
16:51 misilot I want them to be cleared, since we will be using LDAP or CAS for authentication of our users
16:51 cait loading new patrons is easy... updating existing ones is a bit more tricky in my experience
16:51 ah
16:51 all good then
16:51 have to leave, bye all
16:51 misilot bye and thank you cait
16:51 cait np :)

21:12 barton if I want to report a bug regarding koha-gitify, how do I categorize that? Installer? Tools?
21:14 cait it seems like some got reported on github
21:14 https://github.com/mkfifo/koha-gitify/issues
21:16 wizzyrea barton: do it on github.
21:16 no one will see it in our bz.
21:16 koha gitify is a separate project to koha. Just like kohadevbox.
21:17 barton gotcha.
21:37 wizzyrea: https://github.com/mkfifo/koha-gitify/issues/4
21:38 wizzyrea yep, feel free to submit a patch too, if you like.
21:38 barton nod.
21:39 wizzyrea please tell me you're not trying to use gitify in production.
21:40 barton no, but it's still pain to have all of the zebra indexes break in test environments.
21:40 wizzyrea good because that would be nuts.
21:41 barton wizzyrea: didn't you know that all of the bywater folk were a bit touched?
21:41 ;-)
