Rabbitmq
by Marcel de Rooy 17 Nov '21

17 Nov '21

Hi all, Nobody seeing things like this? mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/var/run/rabbitmq’: Permission denied Failed to create directory: /var/run/rabbitmq /usr/lib/rabbitmq/bin/rabbitmq-server: 51: /usr/lib/rabbitmq/bin/rabbitmq-server: cannot create /var/run/rabbitmq/pid: Permission denied Look in /var/log/rabbitmq. Does your rabbitmq service start when you run or restart a container? The solution is simple (mkdir and chown), but it needs to be placed somewhere. Marcel

custom core patches management
by David Schmidt 11 Nov '21

11 Nov '21

Hello koha community, We made some changes to our Koha instance and are now looking for a mechanism to apply them to a new installation. - some of the changes are simply new files, thats easy. - some changes were possible to put into plugins or use existing hooks. but how do you deal with changes to the koha sourcecode? this is our strategy: 1) we have a git repo with our koha source code. 2) if we change code in Foobar.pm we create 3 files. Foobar.pm.orig Foobar.pm.changed Foobar.pm.patch 3) on a new koha instance next we have a script `install.sh` that compares Foobar.pm.orig with the installed file. if they match, the patch is applied. Does that sound like a good idea? How do YOU manage core changes that do not go upstream? cheers, david

Replacement of mailman (mailing lists)
by Jonathan Druart 02 Nov '21

02 Nov '21

Hi devs, Should we keep the historical mailing list or move to something modern, like discourse or flarum? Is it something: - we really want/need - we don't want/need - neat we could have Currently the lists are not maintained (messages are not reviewed/no moderation), the mailman version is old, looks like there are a lot of email bounding, etc. Asking for koha-devel first. Cheers, Jonathan

Translation: One week remaining to complete 21.05 translation to avoid some duplicate work when 21.11 will be out
by Victor Grousset/tuxayo 02 Nov '21

02 Nov '21

Hi :) If your languages of choices don't have yet a full translation for Koha 21.05, it's a good time to put as much a possible work towards that. Because in a week, the 10th will be the string freeze to prepare the major release of Koha 21.11 which the scheduled around the 26th. At that moment, translation of 21.05 will be copied as a starting point for 21.11. After that, any translation work on 21.05 will have to be copied to 21.11. If you usually translate multiple versions, that will spare you one copy compared if you do it after the 10th. If you usually only translate the latest version, it will still help people that will stay on 21.05 to benefit from your work. ↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓ https://translate.koha-community.org/projects/21.05/ ↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑ Happy translating :) -- Victor Grousset/tuxayo
