Duplicated holds notices
by Nick Clemens 14 Oct '19

14 Oct '19

Hi All, We have been getting several reports of duplicated holds notices on a few systems. We cannot find any issues in the code that would duplciate this, there are not duplicated transports or anything in the data we can find. We have noticed that some of the modals have a submit button, and then js to submit the form, however, Kyle attempted to add 'preventDoubleFormSubmit()' to the page and that has not helped $(document).ready(function() { if (window.location.href.indexOf("circ/ returns.pl") > -1) { $('form').preventDoubleFormSubmit(); } }); Has anyone else experienced this? -Nick -- Nick Clemens ByWater Solutions bywatersolutions.com Phone: (888) 900-8944 Pronouns: (he/him/his) Timezone: Eastern

Removing data from hea.koha-community.org
by dcook＠prosentient.com.au 14 Oct '19

14 Oct '19

Hi all, Do we have any process for removing data from hea.koha-community.org? For instance, say that a library permanently closes, or just no longer wants to be listed?

Hi all, How do you (temporarily) turn on DEBUG mode for Koha Plack? I looked inside and out and nothing I tried seemed to work? David Cook Systems Librarian Prosentient Systems 72/330 Wattle St Ultimo, NSW 2007 Australia Office: 02 9212 0899 Direct: 02 8005 0595

Mini roadmap for the API
by Tomas Cohen Arazi 08 Oct '19

08 Oct '19

Hi, with the HAL introduction in mind I plan to (at least) provide a sample implementation of the following: - Add a 'to_api' method to Koha::Object and Koha::Objects that can be overloaded if needed (trivial, WIP 23770) - Pick a sample endpoint (probably /cities) and make sure the implementation keeps the current behaviour (trivial, besides the boring tests) - Move the existing controllers into using this (trivial) - Implement in some sample class, to be determined, ->to_api_hal. And make the endpoint that uses it, Accept: application/hal+json and return this new data structure. So if JSON is requested, the current behaviour is kept. Otherwise, the HAL representation will be returned. Things to think about and which we will be able to play with: - How to determine the depth of the embedding? (HAL has that ability) - Should we specify which FK to follow and embed on the query? how would that query look like? Thanks for your time :-D -- Tomás Cohen Arazi Theke Solutions (http://theke.io) ✆ +54 9351 3513384 GPG: B2F3C15F

Koha, centOS, Apache, starman => random timeout !
by Paul Poulain 07 Oct '19

07 Oct '19

Hello, We have a library running Koha (17.11) on his own centOS (virtual) server, with Apache as webserver. Everything is working smoothly, except that, from time to time (about once a day), it's not working anymore, any page returns: "Proxy error, Error reading from remote server" The logs shows nothing except a strange: [Wed Jul 10 17:17:35.732798 2019] [proxy_http:error] [pid 322] (70007)The timeout specified has expired: [client 1.2.3.4:32988] AH01102: error reading status line from remote server localhost:5000, referer: https://xxx.xxx.xxx.fr/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl?biblionumber=78504&… [Wed Jul 10 17:17:35.732861 2019] [proxy:error] [pid 322] [client 1.2.3.4:32988] AH00898: Error reading from remote server returned by /cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/search.pl, referer: https://xxx.xxx.xxx.fr/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl?biblionumber=78504&… <https://admin.panam.culture.fr/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl?biblionumbe…> What is stranger : after a few minutes, without any action on the server, everything is back, and working well. did anyone face such a problem ? any idea welcomed ! -- Paul Poulain, Associé-gérant / co-owner BibLibre, Services en logiciels libres pour les bibliothèques BibLibre, Open Source software and services for libraries

Hackfest meeting about Mana-kb
by Paul Poulain 04 Oct '19

04 Oct '19

Hello all, We had a quite productive meeting regarding mana-kb during the hackfest. We had many ideas regarding improvements / new features that could be added, I've created a bugzilla entry for each idea. Below is a summary of our work reminder : and "object" is something that is shared through mana. For now, subscription patterns and reports can be shared. * there's a web interface (ui.mana-kb) to look at data, and delete old/outdated. The idea is to curate data regularly. Anyone can apply to become a curator of the data in mana-kb. New features idea : o add a button "apply as curator" https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23738 o prepare some SQL queries that could show librarians contributing a lot, and proposing them to join the list of curators https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23739 o Let curators flag a content (3 values : non-flagged / hide this object, to be discussed for deletion / 'star' this object, it has a high quality/value) https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23740 * Sharing reports guidelines https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23741 o When you share a report, Koha could check if there's a runtime value to set (<<xxxx|yyyy>>). If there's none, add a confirmation checkbox, most useful reports need a runtime parameter. o Add a hint : "do not share a report with hardcoded value related to your own data" that is displayed when the librarian want to share a report * Languages checks are made on the full language code (fr_FR). We need only the first 2. Thus, reports with language fr_FR are displayed also for our canadian-Quebec friends (same thing for en_EN, en_US, en_NZ, of course) https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23742 * In the admin/share_content.pl page => show if a token has not been validated yet https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23743 * In the result lists (for object (reports, ...) searching, add a column with the language of submission, that can be filtered/sorted https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23744 * in ui.mana-kb : https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23745 o hide the token column, a curator does not need to know the token of a librarian o add a feature 'resend token' => resend the validation email to the librarian * In Koha : check that the associated email is an email, to avoid unvalidable tokens https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23746 * replace a local Koha object by a mana-kb one: currently, it's not possible to modify a local object with one coming from Mana-kb. Add this feature, 2 sub-features: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23747 o if the local object comes from Mana, have a message "hey, the mana object has been updated, clic here to update your local one" o if the local object is 'home-made', add a button "update from mana-kb" that let the librarian search in mana, and update his local data. * "golden mana-kb contributor": we expect to have some librarians contributing very efficiently and frequently. Those librarians should be able to update existing mana objects. The golden mana-kb contributor is given by curators, coopt/consensus. The golden contributor status can be given for reports and for subscriptions, separately. -- Paul Poulain, Associé-gérant / co-owner BibLibre, Services en logiciels libres pour les bibliothèques BibLibre, Open Source software and services for libraries
