[Bug 41162] New: Warn that printing large barcode ranges can lead to running out of memory

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=41162 Bug ID: 41162 Summary: Warn that printing large barcode ranges can lead to running out of memory Initiative type: --- Sponsorship --- status: Product: Koha Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Tools Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: philip.orr(a)lmscloud.de QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org If you are using the barcode range option in the label creator, if your barcode range is too large, your Koha server may run out of memory before the process finishes. This causes out of memory errors. This could happen if a library had e.g. "100101223" as their last used barcode and they wanted to print the next 50 barcodes and they make a mistake while entering the "To:" field in the barcode range creator. From: 100101224 To: 1000101274 You could very easily accidentally cause the label-create.pl process to create insane amounts of barcodes. In this case 900 million barcodes would be created, if my math is right. :) The memory usage will slowly increase as barcodes are created and "eventually" there will be no more memory left, causing OOM killer to strike. We should at least warn in the barcode range creation tool that such problems can happen if you aren't careful while entering values. I don't know if there's a good way to stop users from entering too large ranges, maybe there is a valid use case for a large barcode range if you have enough memory. To reproduce (assuming you are on ktd): 1. Check your current memory usage, e.g. with "ps aux --sort -rss" (or "free -h" to see how much memory is still free) 2. Make sure you know how to kill a process in Debian, e.g. "killall -9 /kohadevbox/koha/labels/label-create-pdf.pl" - you will need it soon.. 3. Go to Cataloging -> Label Creator -> Print barcode range 4. Enter in a number in "From:" and a crazy high number in "To:"; see above for an example 5. Print range -> Export (doesn't matter which templates etc.) -> Click on "Download as PDF" 5. Check your memory usage again, it should start spiking over the next minutes. The guilty process should be /kohadevbox/koha/labels/label-create-pdf.pl (assuming you are on ktd). 6. Either kill the process or you will run out of memory -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.

The invoices should be imported into the database as they do now, but the invoice processing should be skipped. Instead, any invoice file with a status of 'new' should have an 'Import' button to process the invoice. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[Bug 38181] New: Extreme slow search results on OPAC (only) search when result records contain multiple items.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=38181 Bug ID: 38181 Summary: Extreme slow search results on OPAC (only) search when result records contain multiple items. Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 24.05 Hardware: All OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 - low Component: Searching Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: kdask(a)altsol.gr QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org When performing a search on the OPAC, if the results containing records that are having a large number of holdings (e.g serials with over 1000 issues/items or even less) there is a huge delay on showing the results (~x8 times slower for the same search if we remove the multiple items from the resulting records) The odd is that the exact same search on the intranet interface works without these delays so I'm guessing that this is a problem on the OPAC search implementation? The problem exists with zebra but also with the use of Elasticsearch engine. Using elasticsearch tried also removing all the item related indexes - 952* subfields (and re-indexing) but the result is the same. In the following google drive link you can find a demo bib record with 1809 items (MarcXML - Marc21) if it helps to reproduce it.https://drive.google.com/file/d/11SQmfdWal9tzcovS0mrgu6vIOPf1aCbc/view You will have to import the record, and then try searching for the title on OPAC: The Journal of biological chemistry. In my case with a decent server without load (Debian, 4cpu cores, 16gb RAM) with plack enabled takes about ~50sec to get the result.
