07:27 pinesol_green JBoyer: Band 'Ejabberd Confit' added to list
07:27 JBoyer Hey, there we go. I liked that too much to let pinesol forget it.
07:28 JBoyer And I thought that removing shapers was part of the SOP when messing with ejabberd.cfg, but I was mistaken. Disabled now and will keep an eye on things.

07:34 JBoyer Huh. Seems my playbooks aren't built to restart opensrf if the only change is ejabberd config. Oops.

09:27 dbs JBoyer: if removing shapers is something that should generally be done for OpenSRF / Evergreen, let's get a doc bug open!

10:01 Freddy_Enrique Hi everyone :)
10:02 Freddy_Enrique One question, is  it posible to upload local scanned images to my record?
10:07 kmlussier Freddy_Enrique: Patron record or bibliographic record?
10:08 Freddy_Enrique Uhm, actually... both. I only meant bibliographic at first but now I´m curious
10:10 kmlussier Freddy_Enrique: Are you using the local scanned image as a book jacket cover? If so, there is support for that.
10:12 kmlussier Freddy_Enrique: One consortium I work with also has a customization that allows them to put a URL for a digital image in the record. The image is the cataloged resource and will display when you pull the record up in the catalog.
10:12 Dyrcona joined #evergreen
10:13 kmlussier Like this one: http://evergreen.noblenet.​org/eg/opac/record/2056420
10:15 Freddy_Enrique Its really useful the URL, but there are cases when the book doesnt have a online cover and I have to do it manually.
10:16 Freddy_Enrique So, let me get this straight, In order to upload a cover image to my record I have to make some configuration first, right?
10:18 kmlussier Freddy_Enrique: Yes, then for book jacket covers, there is a way to do that in Evergreen without customizations. But, unfortunately, I don't know the details.
10:19 Freddy_Enrique I understand, thanks <kmlussier>
10:21 kmlussier Freddy_Enrique: This might help - http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/2.12/_including_loc​ally_hosted_content_in_your_public_interface.html
10:25 Callender joined #evergreen
10:30 Freddy_Enrique kmlussier, the link you just gave me is the method without customization right?
10:30 kmlussier Freddy_Enrique: Yes
10:31 Freddy_Enrique It's useful, but a little complex. The library staff must know how to work in Linux
10:32 Freddy_Enrique For future updates, will it be posible to upload cover images directly from the staff interface?
10:33 kmlussier Freddy_Enrique: You could file a wishlist bug in Launchpad for it. Have you used Launchpad before?
10:34 kmlussier Freddy_Enrique: In the meantime, I don't think staff would need to know Linux to upload the images. They could probably upload them via FTP. But I agree, it would be easier to upload directly from the client.
10:35 Freddy_Enrique You are right!! via Winscp for instance
10:35 Freddy_Enrique Launchpad....
10:35 kmlussier https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen
10:36 kmlussier It's where we file bug reports, but we also put feature requests in there.
10:37 kmlussier As with anything, though, feature requests generally are done if a developer has a need to develop it or if somebody hires or contracts with a developer to do the work.
10:39 Freddy_Enrique So I can get to that page in order to adopt any additional tools for the evergreen, and also fix some bugs.
10:44 kmlussier Freddy_Enrique: Yes, absolutely. We also have some bugs with a 'bitesize' tag that should be smaller bugs to help new contributors get started. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ever​green/+bugs?field.tag=bitesize
10:47 * Dyrcona is bepuzzled.
10:47 kmlussier Speaking of photos for patron records, I wonder if they display in the web client. We don't use them, so I never thought of testing them.
10:52 * Dyrcona thinks I may not have actually loaded the db modification that I thought I was testing.
10:54 mmorgan joined #evergreen
10:55 maryj joined #evergreen
10:55 Dyrcona No, I did,  and it seem to make things worse from one point of view, but more digging is required.
10:56 * Dyrcona is being cryptic....
10:59 mllewellyn joined #evergreen
11:00 * kmlussier runs a quick test and sees no patron record images displaying in the web client.
11:01 * kmlussier 's dog looks very cute in the xul client.
11:04 Dyrcona heh.

11:53 Freddy_Enrique Sorry, We've just experienced a blackout
11:55 Freddy_Enrique uhm... I want to check the link I was given a minutes ago and cant see it in this chat... What can I do in order to keep the conversations made in this chat? And to keep track of them?
11:56 Freddy_Enrique Im currently using freenode in my google chrome browser
11:56 bshum Freddy_Enrique: The main channel is being logged at http://irc.evergreen-ils.org/evergreen , so if you click on the day there, you can view the log for today's chat details thus far
11:57 bshum As far as logging it locally, freenode in the browser wouldn't track past conversations
11:57 bshum You'd have to get a local IRC client application that kept track of chat
12:01 Freddy_Enrique Thanks, Just found it. So I´ve gotta install one IRC app. Im on it
12:04 Dyrcona Freddy_Enrique: Well, you don't have to, but it is nicer to use a real IRC client if you'll be in here much.

14:48 JBoyer dbs, I'm not 100% sure this is making a difference yet, and we had turned our shapers up to 500000 or so. (That's why I thought the docs already mentioned them; they do, they just don't say to remove them)
14:48 JBoyer If it looks like this has made a difference I'll definitely put one in.

16:47 mmorgan Slipping in a last question for the day: Does anyone have any experiences to share regarding the success or failure of the xul client auto-updating after upgrading to 2.12?
16:49 mmorgan We had a number of auto-updates fail during our last upgrade.
16:50 jeffdavis mmorgan: Auto-update worked well for us in our 2.10->2.12 upgrade (also for 2.8->2.10). As a rule, partial update fails but full update works.
16:57 * mmorgan is not sure what is meant by partial vs. full.
17:00 pinesol_green News from qatests: Test Success <http://testing.evergreen-ils.org/~live>
17:00 gmcharlt mmorgan: partial tries to install only the files that have changed since the previous build; full just does a full overwrite
17:02 mmorgan Is that an option when building the self-updating client?
17:13 kmlussier mmorgan: I don't know the answer to your question, but I know when a partial update has failed for me in the past, I'm presented with the option to do the full update.
17:14 mmorgan Oh, ok, yes I'm familiar with that.
17:15 * mmorgan will ponder more tomorrow. Good night!
