https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=39637 Bug ID: 39637 Summary: Patron search generates URIs that are too long and can cause "HTTP 414 URI Too Long" errors Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 - low Component: Patrons Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: julian.maurice(a)biblibre.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, kyle.m.hall(a)gmail.com Continuation of bug 31104 which did not solve the problem completely. Steps to reproduce: 1. Log in to staff interface 2. In the top search bar, select "Patrons search" and type "a b c d e f g h i j k l m" and submit the form 3. The patrons table should fail to load with a message like this: "Something went wrong when loading the table. 414: Request-URI Too Long.". If the table loads successfully, try adding a few more letters (separated by space) to the search. Another error that can happen is a 5XX error caused by the length of Link headers. Here is the (decoded) URL generated for "a b c d e": http://koha-dev-main/api/v1/patrons?_page=1&_per_page=20&q=[{"-and":[[{"me.firstname":{"like":"a%"}},{"me.preferred_name":{"like":"a%"}},{"me.middle_name":{"like":"a%"}},{"me.surname":{"like":"a%"}},{"me.othernames":{"like":"a%"}},{"me.cardnumber":{"like":"a%"}},{"me.userid":{"like":"a%"}}],[{"me.firstname":{"like":"b%"}},{"me.preferred_name":{"like":"b%"}},{"me.middle_name":{"like":"b%"}},{"me.surname":{"like":"b%"}},{"me.othernames":{"like":"b%"}},{"me.cardnumber":{"like":"b%"}},{"me.userid":{"like":"b%"}}],[{"me.firstname":{"like":"c%"}},{"me.preferred_name":{"like":"c%"}},{"me.middle_name":{"like":"c%"}},{"me.surname":{"like":"c%"}},{"me.othernames":{"like":"c%"}},{"me.cardnumber":{"like":"c%"}},{"me.userid":{"like":"c%"}}],[{"me.firstname":{"like":"d%"}},{"me.preferred_name":{"like":"d%"}},{"me.middle_name":{"like":"d%"}},{"me.surname":{"like":"d%"}},{"me.othernames":{"like":"d%"}},{"me.cardnumber":{"like":"d%"}},{"me.userid":{"like":"d%"}}],[{"me.firstname":{"like":"e%"}},{"me.preferred_name":{"like":"e%"}},{"me.middle_name":{"like":"e%"}},{"me.surname":{"like":"e%"}},{"me.othernames":{"like":"e%"}},{"me.cardnumber":{"like":"e%"}},{"me.userid":{"like":"e%"}}]]},{"-or":[{"me.firstname":{"like":"a+b+c+d+e%"}},{"me.preferred_name":{"like":"a+b+c+d+e%"}},{"me.middle_name":{"like":"a+b+c+d+e%"}},{"me.surname":{"like":"a+b+c+d+e%"}},{"me.othernames":{"like":"a+b+c+d+e%"}},{"me.cardnumber":{"like":"a+b+c+d+e%"}},{"me.userid":{"like":"a+b+c+d+e%"}}]},{"-and":[[{"extended_attributes.value":{"like":"a%"},"extended_attributes.code":[["Nickname","PAT_1"]]}],[{"extended_attributes.value":{"like":"b%"},"extended_attributes.code":[["Nickname","PAT_1"]]}],[{"extended_attributes.value":{"like":"c%"},"extended_attributes.code":[["Nickname","PAT_1"]]}],[{"extended_attributes.value":{"like":"d%"},"extended_attributes.code":[["Nickname","PAT_1"]]}],[{"extended_attributes.value":{"like":"e%"},"extended_attributes.code":[["Nickname","PAT_1"]]}]]}]&_match=contains&_order_by=+me.surname,+me.preferred_name,+me.firstname,+me.middle_name,+me.othernames,+me.street_number,+me.address,+me.address2,+me.city,+me.state,+me.postal_code,+me.country (Ignore the extended_attributes.* params that are not the main issue here, even though they contribute to the problem) If I'm counting correctly, for each word searched, the URL length is increased by (216 + 7 * <word length>) characters (before encoding, which also increases the URI length by a lot). For me, with Apache, the problem happens around 8k characters (after encoding). IMO it would be better to send only parameters like 'search', 'search_type' and 'search_field' to the API and translate this to DBIC dialect on the backend. This would make it a lot harder to reach the limit (and would make the URI far more readable, which is always nice :)) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

[Bug 42524] New: Option to calculate priorities based on reservedate when moving hold to a new record

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=42524 Bug ID: 42524 Summary: Option to calculate priorities based on reservedate when moving hold to a new record Initiative type: --- Sponsorship --- status: Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Hold requests Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: andrew(a)bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, lisette(a)bywatersolutions.com, tomascohen(a)gmail.com Depends on: 31698 Currently, when a hold is moved to a new record the hold is placed at the end of the priority list. It would be helpful to provide an option to work the moved hold into the priority list based on when the hold was created -- the moved hold would go after older holds, before newer holds. This does present a problem if the new target record has holds whose priority has been manually changed so that they are no longer in order of age. For the merging of bib records we addressed this same issue by fully rebuilding the priority list for the new merged bib, discarding any manual priority changes and putting all holds in order of age. We could take the same approach here.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=40791 Bug ID: 40791 Summary: Allow choice of which Overdue messages can be patron preferences Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: Main Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Circulation Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: philip.orr(a)lmscloud.de QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org CC: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com, kyle(a)bywatersolutions.com In Bug 30515, we are discussing adding a new system preference UsePatronPreferencesForOverdueNotices to let patrons control which overdue messages are sent by mail in their messaging preferences. For many libraries it would still be necessary to set a certain overdue notice (say the third overdue notice) as "mandatory for print message". Jonathan suggested to reuse the aforementioned pref and make it multivaluated with 3 values possible: ODUE, ODUE2, ODUE3. Then: - if at least one is selected then patrons can edit it/them - if none selected, we don't allow the patrons to modify any This would be the simplest way to extend the functionality of Bug 30515. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

To recreate: 1. Use ktd --dbshell to add a bunch of random suggestions with different statuses: INSERT INTO suggestions (suggestedby, suggesteddate, title, status) SELECT borrowernumber, '2025-10-29', firstname, ELT(0.5 + RAND() *6, 'ASKED', 'CHECKED', 'ACCEPTED', 'REJECTED', 'ORDERED', 'AVAILABLE' ) from borrowers; 2. If you are lucky you will have one tab with more than 20 records and one with less than 20, if not use the ui to adjust the statuses so that you do 3. Click on a tab with more than 20 records 4. Click Next > to go to the second page 5. Notice in local storage now DataTables_acqui_suggestions_suggestions.start is now 20 6. Click on a tab with fewer than 20 records 7. Notice the table says something illogical like: Showing 21 to 11 of 11 entries 8. And no records load :( 9. Click <<First to fix the pagination issue 10.
