09:39 Guest3965 Hi, I am working on setting up an evergreen instance on ubuntu trusty. When I try to register a workstation with the staff client, I'm receiving 200: OK under version, but 500: Internal Server Error. I've checked the apache and system logs but haven't found anything useful. Does anyone know what might be causing the issue?
09:40 Guest3965 Sorry, 500: Internal Server Error under status, I mean
09:41 jeff Guest3965: looks like the nickname "john" was taken, so you've been renamed.
09:42 jeff Guest3965: apache will return a 500 error in that case if the evergreen opensrf services aren't running (that's the most common cause)
09:42 jeff Guest3965: I'd stop apache, stop all opensrf services, ensure that both ejabberd and memcached are running (you can restart them, stop/start them, whatever).
09:43 jeff Guest3965: then, start the evergreen opensrf services. wait for that to be successful, consider using the --diagnostic argument to osrf_control to ensure that they all started.
09:43 jeff Guest3965: finally, start apache and try the staff client again.
09:44 jeff Guest3965: if that doesn't work, test with srfsh to ensure that you can successfully log in.
09:44 Guest3965 Okay, thank you! I'll give that a try now
09:44 Guest3965 I appreciate the help
09:44 jeff Guest3965: if neither of those work, you may have a configuration issue with ejabberd or opensrf, etc.
09:44 jeff Guest3965: you're welcome! good luck!
10:00 Stompro Good morning all, I'm continuing to try to understand EG holds this morning.  Can someone help me with the term "copy circ lib".  Is that the copies owning location, or the checkout location, or something else?
10:02 jeff Stompro: context is key, but absent any additional context, I think of asset.copy.circ_lib when i see "copy circ lib"
10:02 jeff But if you're seeing the term in a specific context, that would be useful info.
10:03 Stompro I'm looking at the best hold selection sort ordering, just trying to understand how the various options match up with a copy capture and the Proximity Ajustment rules.
10:04 Guest3965 jeff: it worked!! Thank you!
10:05 Stompro For instance - "hprox       INT, -- copy circ lib <-> request lib prox"
10:07 Stompro I wonder if request lib = hold pickup lib for hprox, or if request lib = hold.usr.home library ???
10:08 mmorgan Stompro: I believe copy circ lib is as jeff said, asset.copy.circ_lib
10:09 jeff Stompro: okay, so it sounds like you're looking at the table config.best_hold_order as defined in 002.schema.config.sql.
10:09 jeff you might want to take a look at:
10:09 jeff docs/admin/Best_Hold_Selection_Sort_Order.txt
10:10 jeff docs/TechRef/Circ/calculate​d-proximity-adjustments.txt
10:10 jeff docs/TechRef/Circ/custom-best-hold-selection.txt
10:10 mmorgan jeff++
10:11 jeff Stompro: I don't have enough recent/relevant experience in this area to offer much more at this time, sorry. :-)
10:13 * mmorgan did some testing on this early on. Have some notes somewhere...
10:17 * jeff refreshed/added some knowledge after all
10:17 Stompro Is circ_lib the location that the copy currently "lives" at?  The term circ_lib just doesn't mean anything to me yet.  I'm used to thinking in terms of owning locations for items.
10:18 jeff Stompro: that table defines what priority is given to each of those attributes when a given hold order is configured. so, in the case of "first in, first out, but holds always go to patrons at the copy's circ lib first", top priority is "hprox"
10:19 bshum Stompro: Yes, sort of.
10:19 bshum Stompro: A given copy in asset.copy has lots of ways of defining who/where/what about it
10:19 jeff where hprox is defined as the proximity (you might also say "distance") between the copy's circ_lib and the request lib.
10:19 bshum Stompro: "circ_lib" is the ID of the organization unit which controls how the item is generally treated, as regards to circulation behavior, etc.
10:20 jeff asset.copy.circ_lib is "when not needed for anything else, which library's shelves does this item belong on" -- floating can override/change that circ lib automatically.
10:20 jeff it also can be referenced in many ways by circ policy, hold policy/ordering/etc.
10:21 Stompro jeff, and request lib = pickup lib?
10:21 jeff nope. :-)
10:22 jeff action.hold_request has both request_lib and pickup_lib. without checking, I believe request_lib is the OU associated with the workstation when a hold is staff-placed, or the patron's home_ou when the hold is patron-placed.
10:22 Stompro Sigh... step one, define all the terms.  Thanks Jeff.
10:24 jeff 'welcome!
10:25 jeff and yes, request_lib on a hold looks like it is always set to requestor->ws_ou, which open-ils.auth sets to be either the workstation's owning lib or the user's home lib if there is no workstation associated with the login.
10:26 Stompro So for "pprox       INT, -- copy capture <-> pickup lib prox" copy capture probably = workstation OU of checking/capture location.
10:33 jeff yes. reading the code, it's the ws_ou of the user's session that is making the call.
10:34 jeff that call may be part of checkin, renewal (because hold permit checks can determine if an item can be renewed), a clear shelf process, etc.
10:40 dkyle joined #evergreen
10:41 jeff of course, this is only dealing with opportunistic hold capture. Custom Best-Hold Selection does not have any impact on hold targeting at hold placement time or during normal background re-targeting or manual reset/retargeting of a hold.
10:44 jeff "opportunistic" hold capture being the kind of capture that is attempted when the system is checking in a copy via a process that was usually begun for reasons other than "this item was on a holds pull list"
10:45 jeff usually, normal "patron returned this item" checkins.
10:46 mmorgan Stompro: and as long as we're defining things, capturing can happen at the pickup library, or a different library, resulting in the item going in transit to the pickup library.
10:47 * jeff nods
10:48 jeff once an item has been captured for a hold, the system will not attempt to capture further copies for that hold, but the hold may not be "available" for pickup, because as mmorgan pointed out, the hold may have been captured somewhere other than the pickup lib.
10:48 jeff once the item arrives at the pickup lib and is checked in there, the hold becomes available (optionally after a configured delay)
10:49 jeff the "available" date/time used to be purely a calculated/virtual field, but now it's a bit less ephemeral, while still being slightly more complex.
10:50 jeff "available" is now a matter of (in addition to the hold not being cancelled, etc) shelf_time being set and current_shelf_lib matching pickup_lib.
10:50 jeff (don't quote me on that -- code is authoritative ;-)
10:50 jwoodard joined #evergreen
10:52 Stompro Jeff, but the proxmity rules/custome proxmity adjustment can effect both opportunistic capture, and hold targeting, right?
10:53 jeff That is my understanding, yes.
10:54 jeff sure, Chrome. now's a great time to crash.
10:54 mmorgan jeff: "available" meaning "ready for pickup"?
10:57 Stompro We want to set a specific ordering for all locations for hold targeting, and a more general ajustment for opportunistic holds that prioritizes holds in the same system for items in that system.  Seems possible with all the options available for proxmity adjustment rules.
11:00 jeff mmorgan: sorry, yes.
11:03 mmorgan Stompro: Yes, lots of options. We have set the Best Hold Selection Sort order to "Traditional with Holds always go home". We have not adjusted any proximities.
11:11 RoganH joined #evergreen
11:14 jeff @later tell bshum irc logs for yesterday appear broken, this seems familiar like something you may have fixed in the past. http://irc.evergreen-ils.org/evergreen/2015-08-25
11:14 pinesol_green jeff: The operation succeeded.
11:14 bshum jeff: Possibly...
11:15 jeff looks like it's only returning a partial page.
11:16 bshum jeff: I killed the /tmp/CHI folder and then refreshed the page in my browser.
11:16 bshum All seems okay for now.
11:16 jeff bshum++
11:17 jeff glad to know i didn't break it with http://irc.evergreen-ils.org/​evergreen/2015-08-25#i_198693
11:17 jeff (seemed unlikely)
11:18 bshum Whole thing needs to be done better anyways
11:19 jeff works for now.
11:19 jeff but agreed.
11:39 Christineb joined #evergreen
11:55 Stompro Dangit, what we want for capturing is a non-adjusted version of aprox (Copy circ lib to pickup lib) but for targeting we want the adjusted proximity.
12:01 mmorgan Stompro: We just let the targeting happen based upon the org unit heirarchy, but I wonder if the library settings "Org Unit Target Weight" and "Use weight-based hold targeting" are what you need.
12:01 mmorgan Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the adjusted proximity only comes into play at capture time.
12:03 Stompro mmorgan, it is used to create the action.hold_copy_map, which is used for targeting and for aprox based capturing.
12:04 * mmorgan still hasn't found those notes :-(

12:18 jacobsd Want to assure that I was up and running for today's 2pm session.
12:18 Stompro Good to hear, thanks for taking some time out of your preperations for the IRC practice session.
12:19 Stompro Talk to you at 2pm.
12:19 Stompro 2pm cst I should add.
12:19 jacobsd Would not miss it.  Thanks for setting it up and all of your planning

13:23 csharp_athens howdy
13:24 csharp_athens so I'm trying to log in to webby.evergreencatalog.com using admin, but it doesn't proceed after I input my username and password... any suggestions?
13:24 Dyrcona Do you see a workstation in the workstation drop down?
13:24 Dyrcona If so, clear it from local stogare.
13:24 Dyrcona storage, even....
13:25 * Dyrcona thinks maybe his fingers are revolting at typing that word so much today..... jeff knows what I'm talking about.
13:28 jeff "stogare -- must be Italian!"
13:28 csharp_athens no workstation, no - the dropdown is empty :-(
13:28 * csharp_athens sings "Stogare, whoa oh... Cantare, whoa whoa whoa whoa"
13:28 berick to the JS console!
13:28 Dyrcona heh
13:29 jeff csharp_athens: certain you're using https? https://webby.evergreencatalog.com/eg/staff/
13:30 csharp_athens jeff: yes
13:31 berick i can log in OK
13:31 berick csharp_athens: chrome?
13:32 berick chrome and FF both working for me
13:33 jeff likewise here, including with incognito (testing to make sure my having logged in before wasn't obscuring another error)
13:33 jeff csharp_athens: draconian firewall between you and webby?
13:33 berick csharp_athens: could be firewall blocking websocket port.
13:33 berick jinx
13:33 berick JS console would show an error
13:33 csharp_athens jeff: berick: I bet that's it
13:34 csharp_athens ssh is blocked, for instance, which is why I'm using the web gateway for IRC

13:51 dbs TIL that "Local catalogue search" doesn't return hits for records that only have located URIs. WTF?
13:51 dbs (whereas real z39.50 / SRU against our catalogue does, as expected)
13:52 vlewis joined #evergreen
13:54 Dyrcona BTW, I have started an agenda for next week's developers' meeting: http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/d​oku.php?id=dev:meetings:2015-09-02
13:55 * dbs looks up open-ils.search.biblio.zstyle.staff
13:57 bshum zstyle
13:57 bshum I thought we killed that?
13:57 bshum Or maybe just wrapped it into something else
13:58 dbs it basically wraps open-ils.search.biblio.multiclass.staff
14:00 Dyrcona Yep. It zstyle is still there and it wraps multiclass.staff.
14:00 Dyrcona yes, it gives possibly different results from actually searching your server via z39.50.
14:02 dbs Not returning records that have located URIs but no copies seems like a bug though
14:03 dbs [en-US] open-ils.search open-ils.search.z3950.search_class "hash", {"service_array":["native-evergreen-catalog"],​"username_array":[""],"password_array":[""],"l​imit":10,"offset":0,"search":{"title":"journal of photochemistry"},"service":["native-evergree​n-catalog"],"username":[""],"password":[""]}
14:03 dbs Seems pretty innocuous :/
14:05 bshum dbs: That does sound weird to me.  I would have expected native catalog search to potentially match/find any bib in the system
14:05 bshum Regardless of copies or not
14:06 jlitrell joined #evergreen
14:13 dbs I would just set up a Z39.50 target that points to our own Z39.50 server, but then I think that would end up duping records :/
14:15 Dyrcona dbs: I say open a Launchpad bug.
14:15 vlewis_ joined #evergreen
14:15 Dyrcona If you think zstyle search should return records with located URIs, then it probably should.
14:16 dbs Yeah, just surprised nobody else has run into this.
14:17 dbs I'm always wary that we might have shot ourselves in the foot somehow and caused a problem locally
14:17 Dyrcona I've noticed it doesn't return the same things as a search via yaz-client, but hadn't noticed the located URIs issue.
14:19 dbs hrm, /me is noticing JS console saying "WebSocket connection to 'wss://localhost:8443/hatch' failed: Error in connection establishment: net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED" on webby in Chrome 45.0.2454.46 (Official Build) beta (64-bit) (Linux)
14:19 dbs wss://localhost ?
14:20 Dyrcona That's normal. You can ignore that.
14:20 Dyrcona you can also make it go away by checking a box somewhere.
14:20 * Dyrcona forgets exactly, probably where you register the workstation for the first time.
14:21 Dyrcona It's trying to talk to hatch installed on your computer.
14:24 vlewis joined #evergreen
14:24 dbs Oh, right. I hate seeing errors in console logs
14:24 vlewis__ joined #evergreen
14:26 berick it might still try to connect even when hatch is disabled.  if so, need to fix that.
14:26 dMiller_ joined #evergreen
14:30 dbs Reproduced the zstyle error in webby, so that's good. Sort of.
14:30 jeff berick: pretty sure the connection attempt is made regardless of the setting, so yes -- good to fix.
14:31 jeff if someone gets to it first, i'll look at their fix. :-)
14:33 dbs Bizarre. Without a located URI, the record will be returned from zstyle search. Once I add a located URI, it disappears.

15:04 yboston hello everyone
15:04 jwoodard did I make it in time for practice time?
15:04 yboston yes you did!
15:04 yboston the first lesson for today will be to try "replying" to someone
15:04 dkvit deb Kvittum, Moorhead, MN
15:04 yboston it is the first thing mentioned here http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/do​ku.php?id=community:irc-quick-start
15:05 yboston the person using the nickname "jwoodard" asked a question, here is how I reply to them
15:05 yboston jwoodard: yes you made it in time
15:05 yboston I typed out their IRC nickname, then added a colon then a spce, then my reply
15:06 yboston try replying to me for practice
15:06 dkvit yboston: hi yboston
15:06 jacobsd yboston: like so?
15:06 dcmh yboston: replying
15:06 berowskim Stompro: This is my reply
15:06 loril yboston: replying
15:06 khanson_ yboston: Hello!
15:06 yboston Note, that on a lot of IRC software and sites you can just type the first few letters of a nickname and then hit "tab" for the system to autocomplete the nickname
15:06 Stompro yboston, hello
15:06 jwoodard yboston: hello
15:06 SharonD yboston: got it!
15:06 Cowens yboston: thanks
15:07 yboston seems like everyone did it correctly
15:07 jacobsd yboston: cool
15:07 loril yboston: Got it
15:07 dcmh yboston: ok
15:07 yboston I see that berowskim happened to reply to Stompro, which is perfectly fine
15:07 afterl yboston: nice tab trick
15:08 yboston let me try to reply to a bunch of you at the same time, to see if your IRC software/site sounds a ping
15:08 yboston jacobsd Stompro dcmh loril dkvit: this is a mutliple reply test?
15:09 yboston sorry I missed some of you
15:09 dkvit yboston: ooh!  I got a sound
15:09 yboston cool
15:09 phasefx some IRC clients will also highlight lines that contain your name to better get your attention
15:09 yboston my screen was pining a lot when you all replied to me earlier
15:09 jacobsd yboston: did not hear a sound
15:09 yboston jacobsd: let me try again
15:09 yboston jacobsd: did that work?
15:09 jacobsd yboston: got it that time
15:10 yboston for the record, there are multiple reasons to use replying
15:10 dcmh yboston: I didn't hear anything either.
15:10 yboston one is to make it clear who you are speaking to
15:10 SharonD SharonD: just talking to myslef
15:10 yboston another one is to get somone's attention since most IRC software/sites will trigger a sound
15:11 yboston dcmh: did it owrk this time?
15:11 yboston make sure your volume is up too
15:11 dcmh yboston:  yes
15:12 yboston the next feature we should try is "private messages", again following along from http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/do​ku.php?id=community:irc-quick-start
15:12 * jeff waves to the Minnesotans from two great lakes over
15:12 yboston you start your line with a slash and the letters "msg", so start your line with: /msg yboston to message me directly and privately
15:13 yboston try sending me a private message like:  /msg hello
15:13 jeff yboston: forgot your nickname in that most recent example.
15:13 yboston got my first one, I will reply on the private side to each of you
15:13 yboston jeff: thank you
15:13 jeff poor "hello" might get a handful of messages :-)
15:14 yboston my apologies to the IRC usernamed hello :(
15:15 yboston I have so far replied to 9 different private messages
15:15 yboston let me know if you did not hear from me
15:15 yboston private messages are great if you want to
15:16 yboston - have a logn winded conversation with someone and you don't want to "hog" the channel
15:16 yboston - you might be sharing information that you want to keep somewhat private
15:17 loril yboston: is your private response the one with the *s?
15:17 yboston loril: I am not sure what you mean yet
15:17 yboston loril: can you explain more of what you mean?
15:18 loril yboston: I got a msg 'hello' from *yboston* ?

15:19 dkvit yboston: I've gotten a couple of sounds like something is being said to me, but I don't actually see a message on the screen...does it say your name when the message is directed to you?
15:19 yboston loril: I just replied again to you from our private chat
15:19 Stompro In the web IRC gateway, the private messages show up in a different tab along the top, look next to Status and Evergreen at the top of the page.
15:20 yboston Stompro: thanks
15:20 dkvit oh look at that
15:20 AndroUser joined #evergreen
15:20 yboston yes, depending on the IRC software or site you are using, you will get some cisual and auditory cue of incoming private messages or replies
15:20 jacobsd Strompro++
15:21 yboston loril: I just replied some mroe to you, is it more clear where you private messages and replies appear?
15:21 Stompro Extra r there denny, extra r.
15:22 * jacobsd steps on the "r"
15:22 yboston for the record, my spelling/grammar suffers terribly on IRC when I try to use IRC
15:22 jacobsd Stompro++
15:22 yboston then again, I am known to speak extrmely fast and loud
15:24 dcmh yboston: I found our private conversation.
15:24 yboston I just sent you all a private message to make it clear that our other conversation is private
15:25 Stompro yboston, got it, thanks
15:25 yboston then again, I would not share crefit card numbers or other sensitive information via a private IRC channel
15:26 yboston BTW, for some of you my private respnsoes might appear with my nickname in red
15:26 yboston it is OK if you don't end up doing a lot of private messages in IRC at first
15:26 yboston I just wanted to expose you to this feature
15:27 yboston the next topic we will cover is "karma" or a way to give someone a "pat in the back" on IRC
15:27 yboston again, some basic info here http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/do​ku.php?id=community:irc-quick-start
15:28 yboston so if I wanted to give Stompro a pat in the back for all the bug reports and bug fixes he has been putting in lately
15:28 yboston Iw ould write out his nickname followed by two plus signs: Stompro++
15:28 * Stompro gets to be the example, yeah!!
15:28 yboston or in a line by itslef
15:28 yboston *itself
15:28 yboston Stompro++
15:29 * Dyrcona is having "fun" with translations.
15:29 bshum "fun" indeed.
15:29 * Stompro thinks that karma can be used at chucky cheese, but the exchange rate is pretty rough.
15:29 yboston the community ask that you never use negative karma on an individual
15:30 jwoodard translations++
15:30 dkvit yboston: why do some entries not have a name identifying who said it?
15:30 yboston for example, it is common to see the intials for a certain web browser being given negative karma
15:30 yboston ie--
15:30 yboston dkvit: good question
15:31 yboston that means that whomever wrote that message is not replying to someone
15:31 yboston there should be a way to see who wrote the message somewhere in your IRC user interface, though it varies
15:31 dkvit Well that's just confusing.  I'll see if I can figure out where it is
15:32 yboston if I want to reply to you (dkvit), I need to start my line by typing your nickname and the colon
15:32 yboston dkvit: like this
15:32 dkvit yboston: so that last entry I made wouldn't show up w/ my name next to if for someone else accessing this the same way I am?
15:32 yboston perhaps I am misunderstanding you
15:33 yboston you may be asking about when folks speak in the third person
15:33 dkvit jeff:  I'm afraid I don't know what CTCP VERSION is....
15:33 jeff dkvit: it's my client asking your client what it is. you can disregard it. :-)
15:34 jeff (your client handled it automatically)
15:34 Dyrcona CTCP: Client to Client Protocol.
15:34 yboston so right now I am starting a regular line without anyone's nickname at the beguining
15:34 mmorgan yboston: dkvit: Could it be that the IRC client is only showing the user once, on the first line if there are multiple posts by the same person?
15:34 jacobsd I am wondering if dkvit is seeing the effects of the /me command
15:35 yboston mmorgan: that could be it
15:35 dkvit yboston: I bet it is that third person thing...I think I read something last week about performing actions or something now that I think about it?
15:35 * jacobsd waves at dkvit
15:35 * jeff yawns
15:35 Dyrcona dkvit: What IRC client do you use?
15:35 yboston this "third person" trick is listed again here http://evergreen-ils.org/dokuwiki/do​ku.php?id=community:irc-quick-start
15:35 yboston you start uipr line with a slash and the letter "me
15:35 Dyrcona I recall using one on the Mac that would only show names when the user speaking changed.
15:36 yboston it will look somehting like: /me I am trying out the thrid person feature
15:36 yboston let me actually try it out....
15:36 * yboston I am trying out the thrid person feature
15:36 * jwoodard multitasks on reports and IRC commands
15:37 yboston dkvit: is this what you saw or is it regualr messages that the UI of your IRC cleint/site happens to not make it as clear who is the author?
15:37 * SharonD just talking to myself
15:37 dkvit yboston: I think it's that third person thing...
15:37 yboston ok
15:37 yboston mmorgan: thanks for the idea
15:37 yboston so lets recap what we have tried so far...
15:38 yboston 1) replying
15:38 yboston 2) private messages
15:38 yboston 3) karma
15:38 yboston 4) actions/third person voice
15:38 yboston btw, you hsould all try the third person voice as  test
15:38 yboston *should
15:39 * jacobsd is thinking in the third person
15:39 yboston another key concept I wan to show you is how we often do infromal voting on an idea
15:39 * dkvit a little stressed by the third person/karma thing.  Will work through it
15:39 yboston good
15:39 jwoodard is it wrong to refer to myself as a "wizard level computer user" on my staff evaluation?
15:39 yboston have some karma dkvit for trying it out
15:39 yboston dkvit++
15:40 yboston so back to informal voting on IRC
15:41 yboston what typically happens is that in an IRC meetign or during normal IRC chatting someone ask if something is a good idea
15:41 yboston lets say, do you think I should continue to have IRC practice time?
15:41 yboston if you agreee just reply with: +1
15:41 SharonD +1
15:41 jacobsd +1
15:41 yboston like so if you agree
15:41 dkvit +1
15:41 yboston +1
15:41 dcmh +1
15:41 loril +1
15:41 Cowens +1
15:41 jwoodard +1
15:42 berowskim +1
15:42 Dyrcona jwoodard: I think that's fine. :)
15:42 Stompro +1
15:42 yboston if you don't you would reply with: -1
15:42 yboston -1
15:42 SharonD -1
15:42 Dyrcona -1
15:42 Dyrcona -elebenty
15:42 Stompro -2
15:42 dkvit -1
15:42 dcmh -1
15:42 yboston good
15:42 * Dyrcona waits, as usual.

15:45 yboston also, there is a link explaining this IRC "helper bot" called pinesol_green
15:45 yboston that is used by the community
15:45 Dyrcona Apparently, I'm the one that isn't awake.....
15:45 yboston here is the link on pinesol_green http://wiki.evergreen-ils.org/doku.p​hp?id=community:using-pinesol_green

15:53 jwoodard what's with the bad rolls?
15:54 gsams Dyrcona: I'm thinking Sword Mage at the moment.
15:54 yboston jwoodard: not sure if you are being funny or you are confused by the "bad rolls" text?
15:55 gsams heh
15:55 Dyrcona gsams: Not with those stats. I was thinking more meat shield/healer.
15:55 jwoodard yboston: just being funny
15:55 yboston jwoodard: that is what I thought
15:55 jwoodard @librarian

15:58 gsams jwoodard: I'd take that roll
15:58 jacobsd Stompro: Thanks.  Talk to you soon
16:00 * gsams apologizes for possibly distracting from the practice with talk of bad rolls.
16:05 Dyrcona @tea gsams
16:05 * pinesol_green brews and pours a pot of None, and sends it sliding down the bar to gsams (http://ratetea.com/tea/rishi/masala-chai/4495/)
16:05 Dyrcona That must some Zen blend from Japan. :)
16:06 tsbere gsams: I dunno. "People interrupting conversations" seems like something to be used to on IRC as well...
16:06 Dyrcona Yep.
16:06 Dyrcona "What is the sound of None tea brewing?"
16:07 jboyer-isl The sound of one hand clapping is how you make known your feelings about the preparation of none tea brewing.
16:10 Dyrcona heh
16:12 gsams tsbere: This is very true
16:13 gsams Dyrcona: I think the None was supposed to read Masala Chai, but I am interested in this None tea.
16:13 gsams Dyrcona++
16:14 Dyrcona Yeah, I figured that out, too. :)
16:15 jwoodard Just give me a cup of Earl Grey or Irish Breakfast and I'm good.
16:19 gsams jwoodard: I enjoy a good cup of Irish Breakfast with some honey, but right now my go to is Builder's Tea: http://www.makemineabuilders.com/
16:31 jeff well that's interesting. one (just one, so far) of the holds that is ready for pickup lost the microseconds on its shelf_time.
16:31 jeff (this may be a completely normal thing)
16:35 jeff such as if something updated the hold via cstore, i think.
16:35 * jeff waits for the logs
16:36 Dyrcona jeff: I was thinking something along those lines.
16:37 jeff i'm just not sure offhand what would update a ready-for-pickup hold.
16:37 jeff (it hasn't been cancelled, which was my first thought)
16:37 Dyrcona it wasn't canceled?
16:38 jeff it is not currently cancelled.
16:38 Dyrcona It could be some checkin modifier somehow affecting the resolution of the timestamp.
16:38 mmorgan jeff: update to shelf expire time?
16:38 jeff mmorgan: shelf_expire_time remains the same.
16:39 jeff mmorgan: but it's possible some operation in the staff client (including setting the shelf expire time to the same time) has been done. logs are transferring now.
16:39 Dyrcona I wonder if some method of putting it on hold supplies a shelf_expire_time and most methods don't.
16:40 Dyrcona IIRC: it will be calculated if it is null.
16:40 jeff shelf_expire_time is set at or around shelf_time, and since it is calculated based on ou setting, i think it always gets seconds only -- because the calculation is not based on NOW() and is done in the perl layer.
16:41 jeff that's just off the top of my head though. :P
16:48 Dyrcona :)
16:48 collinanderson joined #evergreen
16:50 jeff aha. appears to be the user editing the hold via the opac.
16:52 jeff maybe.
16:53 vlewis joined #evergreen
16:58 jeff yup.
16:58 pinesol_green Incoming from qatests: Test Success - http://testing.evergreen-ils.org/~live/test.html <http://testing.evergreen-ils.org/~live/test.html>

17:06 jlitrell joined #evergreen
17:07 jeff doing essentially a no-op batch update (set all these holds to Active when all are active) will end up stripping microseconds because it does an unconditional update.
17:11 mmorgan left #evergreen
17:13 dkyle left #evergreen
