14:22 mantis HI all just trying to understand this error that came up in our logs: open-ils.vandelay.bib_record.list.import: Use of uninitialized value within @_ in list assignment at /usr/local/share/perl/5.34.0/Open​ILS/Application/Cat/BibCommon.pm line 9
14:22 mantis *line 92
14:22 mantis when referencing this in the code, it stops after the sub biblio_record_xml_import within the perl script
14:34 csharp_ mantis: @_ is a generic array variable that holds whatever is passed into the subroutine, so that subroutine is expecting an array with the values for each of the vars it's assigning to but one of them is undefined/uninitialized
14:36 csharp_ mantis: you can add something like 'print "@_ \n";' to the beginning of the sub to see what's there - or $logger->info("MANTIS: \@_ is @_"); and it will come through in the info logs
14:37 csharp_ (adding "MANTIS:" to have something easy to grep)
14:50 mantis csharp++
14:56 csharp_ (adding that I dislike the use of @_ or $_ - its scalar version - in production code)
14:56 csharp_ here it's pretty obvious what's happening - simple assignment, but some places in EG do things with the received and anonymous variables
14:57 csharp_ troubleshooting in those cases is UnFun™
15:00 mantis we did trace it down to the call number it seems and the PO is stuck trying to activiate
15:01 mantis the system says that it did import with a match but when one of our catalogers is trying to update the call number, the PO has a failure trying to write to the db
15:01 mantis our cataloger would like to know if trying to activiate with more than half the line items that already generated is causing this issue since the system might see them as duplicates

16:35 jeff found the embedded maintenance counter in one of our checkin workstation receipt printers: 46.333 kilometers of paper have passed over the thermal head.
16:35 csharp_ whoa
16:38 eeevil jeff: that's nearly 29 freedom units!
16:42 eeevil @later tell mantis if you change certain parts of where a PO puts items before they're received, IIRC, it can't find them anymore. I don't recall CN being an issue specifically, but I know if you move an acq item to a different (real EG) bib, stuff gets unhappy
16:42 pinesol eeevil: The operation succeeded.
