10:30 Dyrcona So, I want to make some a/t events run again.
10:31 Dyrcona I believe I should set the state to pending, null out the run/start/complete/_time fields, null out update_process, and null out template/error/async_output.
10:31 Dyrcona Anything that I missed?
10:32 mmorgan joined #evergreen
10:33 mmorgan Dyrcona: Depending on the situation, I sometimes make use of the Event Repeatability delay so new events will be created, rather than recycling the old ones.
10:34 mmorgan Then blank out the field once they've run.
10:36 Dyrcona mmorgan: That's interesting. What delay do you use?
10:37 Dyrcona My oldest failed event is about 33 hours old at this point.
10:38 mmorgan Is this a trigger that runs several times during the day?
10:39 mmorgan I usually do this in testing, and use a very short delay, like 5 minutes so I can rerun as soon as I've tweaked.
10:39 Dyrcona Well, I'm assuming it is all SendEmail triggers, but I should really look through the now, 3,689 messages in the queue to make sure. :)
10:39 Dyrcona I don't have really have a testing environment.
10:39 tsbere Dyrcona: I would avoid doing the repeatability delay trick. As you are using existing triggers it would try and deal with things for older events too.
10:40 tsbere For testing *new* configs it is a useful trick though
10:40 Dyrcona My oldest delivery failure is about 33 hours old.
10:40 berick yeah, for a simple re-do, clearing the fields on the events will do it.
10:41 Dyrcona mmorgan: Thanks for the suggestion. I think I'm just going to clear the events.
10:41 mmorgan Dyrcona: Yeah, probably makes sense if it involves a number of different email triggers.
10:41 Dyrcona I think I can figure out which events by writing a script to parse the mail queue... I know hold notification is one.
10:45 tsbere Dyrcona: Why not just go with "start date/time is after you activated the broken config"?
10:45 Dyrcona Well, I thought of that, but I wondered if some of them were actually delivered. I'll just do that, and save myself the time.
10:47 yboston_ joined #evergreen
10:56 mmorgan Web based self-check question: Is there a way to have a fine block that just applies to the self-check?
10:56 tsbere Not that I know of at this time
10:57 Dyrcona Looks like some patrons are just going to have to deal with getting double notices.
10:57 * tsbere had plans to make the circ matrix able to do things based on desk/selfcheck/opac/etc but at this point will likely never get there
11:03 Dyrcona I suppose I should stop the a/t runner while I make the changes.

11:37 Dyrcona hmm. action_trigger.event.run_time won't take a null value and has no default.
11:37 Dyrcona I'm not sure if I should leave it alone or put a future date in it.
11:39 tsbere Leave it alone
11:39 tsbere You want start_time to be null, not run_time
11:39 tsbere run_time is "run at or after" (which may be days after it was added)
11:41 Dyrcona OK. That's what I thought after looking at a few. Yes, I'm already nulling start_time.
11:54 kmlussier yboston: Just discovered this and thought it might be of interest to you too. http://www.meetup.com/Write-the-Docs-BOS/

12:24 Dyrcona Thanks everyone for the advice on the a/t events. It seems to be going now other than a few hiccups here and there.
12:24 Dyrcona I think I'll tweak the mail software configuration a bit.
12:34 Stompro Can someone tell me if this looks like a logic bug?    $hard_due_date_name gets initialized, and then checked without ever getting changed on line 1763, I wonder if line 1763 should actually be checking $hard_due_date since that gets set from the circ rule.  http://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=Evergreen.​git;a=blob;f=Open-ILS/src/perlmods/lib/Ope​nILS/Application/Circ/Circulate.pm#l1742
12:38 Stompro Or maybe line 1748 should actually be setting $hard_due_date_name instead of $hard_due_date?
12:55 mmorgan Stompro: To my untrained eye it looks like an error. Looks like that gets called just for precats and booking reservation pickups?
12:59 jeff Stompro: looks like an error to me, but i haven't looked deeply enough to say if it has any practical impact.
13:05 tsbere Stompro: I suspect most of the _name stuff there can be removed in general, probably being holdovers from script-based circ rules

14:57 Dyrcona Thank you, Debian, for making exim configuration harder than it needs to be.
14:57 * Dyrcona should say that in #debian on oftc.net. :)
