09:59 wsmoak Pines looks different!  I remembered the Firefox search widget and tried to install it... didn't *seem* to work.
10:00 wsmoak Turns out that it did install, it's just using a plain magnifying glass icon that I didn't recognize as Pines. Maybe you could use the little tree icon?
10:02 wsmoak The tree is there next to "Add Evergreen OpenSearch", but isn't used in the 'Search With' options later.
10:15 jeff @later tell csharp wsmoak has some feedback for you on OpenSearch icons -- see logs if you haven't already :-)
10:15 pinesol_green jeff: The operation succeeded.
10:16 jeff wsmoak: on csharp's behalf, since he's probably either still working hard or resting well -- thanks! :-)
10:23 wsmoak sure. :)  Here's a screen shot:  http://wsmoak.net/temp/pines-firefox-search.png
10:24 wsmoak it was confusing because it still says "Add Evergreen OpenSearch" (possibly it always will when you're on the pines site, just because that xml file exists)
10:24 wsmoak I couldn't catch the hover text in the screen shot, but that grey magnifying glass is actually PINES.
10:26 dbs wsmoak: take a look at the "Add opensearch" option for https://laurentian.concat.ca - that's relatively stock for the next version of Evergreen (assuming a patch of mine is accepted)
10:27 dbs I think the icon just comes from /favicon.ico
10:27 dbs (which reminds me, I need to update ours to get away from the stock favicon.ico...)
10:28 wsmoak dbs:  yours works the same way.  (now I have two grey magnifying glasses to choose from)
10:29 dbs wsmoak: strange, sir. when I go to http://gapines.org/eg/opac/home in Firefox 35 and add the opensearch from there, it gives me the pines icon
10:29 dbs what browser are you using?
10:30 dbs specifically Firefox 35.0 for Linux here.
10:30 wsmoak Firefox 35.0 .  So your search drop down doesn't look like my screen shot above, you get your icon under "Search for xyz with:" ?
10:30 wsmoak mac osx
10:31 ningalls joined #evergreen
10:31 dbs Yep, mine looks quite different. You running a non-stock theme or extension perhaps?
10:31 wsmoak I don't think it's using favicon -- I see the tree up in the browser tab next to the site title.
10:31 wsmoak this is a fairly fresh Yosemite install, and I haven't customized FF at all
10:33 wsmoak will be interesting to see what another osx user sees.  Norton might be to blame, it sticks its nose where it isn't wanted all the time.
10:34 wsmoak anyway... the search works fine now that I know what I'm looking at. :)  minor issue.
10:48 dbs http://i.imgur.com/dbmZDa9.png is what mine looks like
10:48 dbs (highlighting PINES obscures the icon sadly, oh well)

10:54 * dbs wonders idly why Browse catalog by title works in one library in our instance but not in another
10:54 dbs (returns a server 500 error, yikes)
10:58 * dbs peers at egweb: Context Loader error: Can't use an undefined value as a HASH reference at WWW/EGCatLoader/Browse.pm line 271.
11:00 dbs suggests its a database error, and the there's no $self->editor->event member that was returned I guess.
11:03 * dbs opts to stop testing defensive code in production after making every page request return 500 :)
11:21 yboston joined #evergreen
12:00 Dyrcona joined #evergreen
12:09 dbs my defensive code is simply offensive
12:12 dbs even weirder, that browse works on our test instance where we haven't reingested all of the records. hrm.
12:18 jihpringle joined #evergreen
12:23 eeevil dbs: any chance the osrf translator memcache instance is misconfigured in the apache configs?  I've seen that break browse and just a couple other things in the past.  A/T event def editor would also break, for instance
12:24 dbs eeevil: definitely possible
12:26 dbs hmm. matches our opensrf.xml values of 127.0.0.1:11211
12:26 dbs and browse works for one locg value in production but not another
12:36 eeevil well, that rules out one problem, at least
12:36 dbs thanks for the idea - yeah
12:36 Dyrcona I've been seeing this in 2.7.1 and master lately when stopping services: timed out waiting on open-ils.acq pid=8347 to die
12:37 Dyrcona It's always acq.
12:37 Dyrcona But then, I'm "off" today.
12:38 sandbergja joined #evergreen
12:47 julialima_ Hello evergreeners!!! The web client is not working, at least for me. In the patron search I can´t perform any search, I have no feedback so I don´t know what is going on. Anyone know if there is a problem?
12:47 bshum Dyrcona: I've seen that too actually.
12:47 bshum Also "off" :)
12:51 bshum julialima_: I'm probably not the best person to answer you (I'm not sure how many folks have off today in the US). Anywho, which server are you using to test with?
12:52 dbwells julialima_: Some folks might be at lunch, which is where I am headed.  Also, just to clarify, are you talking about webby.evergreencatalog.com, or some other test site?
12:52 bshum Maybe there might be a hint in the browser console
12:53 gmcharlt julialima_: try webby now; I've restarted services there and it's now working for me
12:54 julialima_ gmcharlt: It is working now, thank you very much! :)
12:59 jeff gmcharlt++
13:24 * dbs looks sideways at the default limit of 64mb being used for memcached. hmmmmm
13:27 mrpeters joined #evergreen
13:37 abowling hey, all. have another noob question that i think i have the answer to: does search_prefs.xul run on a user's local machine?
13:38 abowling i ask, because i can find no instance of it on the server, which makes me believe it runs client-side
13:57 dbs abowling: rough rule of thumb, stuff under "chrome/" runs client-side
13:57 dbs anyone else care to share what their memcached memory is set to?
13:58 abowling dbs: thanks. i thought so, but wanted to confirm after editing a file in the wrong place last week.
14:00 jeffdavis dbs: our memcached memory is 1024 MB
14:01 jeffdavis (assuming you mean the -m option)
14:08 sandbergja joined #evergreen
14:09 dbs jeffdavis: yeah, that's exactly what I was looking for -- thanks
14:09 dbs might be another "knobs to tune for production systems" bit to add to that mythical section of the documentation
14:15 eeevil dbs: most we have here are 64MB. a few are bigger
14:19 dbs eeevil: huh. so much for that then, maybe. that said we have search engines hungrily crawling our 2+ million record system so perhaps > 64m is warranted (for ~the AC for example)
