08:25 csharp heh
08:25 bshum That's what led me to poke at it.
08:26 bshum If I have a moment later this morning, I'll dust off my branch.
08:27 csharp I believe 'LEFT JOIN actor.card circ_card ON circ_u.card = circ_card.id' will accomplish what I'm trying to fix
08:27 csharp since users can have multiple active cards now too

10:18 csharp I'll test it
10:18 eeevil csharp: there are many more than that one to convert, of course. and I'm testing on an empty db, so the syntax works but we may need to add window range conditions
10:18 csharp good to know
10:25 mcooper joined #evergreen

14:13 jeff_ dbwells: thanks!
14:14 jeff_ dbwells: are you guys using the duplicate message detection? i've removed it in https://github.com/tadl/iNCIPit/commit/5​37b6a763ae6ec1a48d1bd9439daa177436f3bf1
14:15 dbwells jeff_: If your testing shows it should be removed, I have no issue with removing it.
14:21 sseng joined #evergreen
14:22 Dyrcona FWIW, I thought it should be removed the first time that I tried testing iNCIPit.
14:24 jeff_ In testing, we rarely received duplicate messages (other than those that were legit retries after a failure to respond properly). The duplicate message detection was apparently due to an old issue that is no longer an issue, and it can cause problems such as failure to auth the same patron twice in a row.
14:24 jeff_ Also, it would require shared storage or a modification to use memcache to work in multi-server environments, so I was pleased when told by MeLCat staff that it should no longer be needed. :-)

16:36 gsams AaronZ-PLS: I know it wouldn't be quite as informative, but the mail log should be a pretty good indication of whether action triggers are working or not.  I can't say that I've tried looking into it in any other way myself.

15:52 mmorgan I'm trying to test an action trigger. Is there a recommended way to remove rows from the database so I can tweak and retest?
16:06 jboyer-isl mmorgan: A guess I'm thinking of testing soon: delete from action_trigger.event where event_def=(The event id you're testing). You could add additional clauses for add_time, state, etc. if needed.
16:07 smyers_ joined #evergreen
16:08 jboyer-isl but note that I've not tried it yet.
16:10 mmorgan Thanks, anything I try will be on a test server :). Will deleting the row from action_trigger.event also remove rows from action_trigger.event_output?
16:10 mmorgan or can those just stay there and not bother anybody?
16:10 jboyer-isl Ah, I doubt it.
16:10 rfrasur joined #evergreen
16:10 jboyer-isl Cleaning them up might make testing easier, if that's where you're looking for success/failure.
16:14 mmorgan Good point. I will give this a try on a test server, but maybe not til Monday. Thanks!
16:16 bshum In the old days, we used to just put complete times on unfinished A/T events
16:16 bshum And change the status
16:17 bshum But deleting is also simple too.
16:20 mmorgan I'm fine with updating rather than deleting. I'm testing notices and want to be able to run the same trigger again for the same user.
16:23 mmorgan events for the event_def I'm working with have status complete but complete_ time of null. Can I update these fields to get it to run again after I make changes to the template?

11:11 RoganH If interest is high enough based on the doodle poll I might do two dates.
11:16 csharp okay, so since open-ils.storage.asset.copy.circ_count pulls more than just a raw count from the circ table, I've fixed it (on my test machine) to use action.all_circulation... so now the issue is probably to recreate a new method for grabbing the circ count from extend_reporter.full_circ_count and use that in place of open-ils.storage.asset.copy.circ_count ;-)
11:17 csharp s/recreate/create/
11:17 csharp I'll update the bug with what I've done and we can continue the discussion there

11:21 rfrasur RoganH++

14:35 csharp @hates
14:35 pinesol_green csharp hates dojo_hold_policies_interface; SIP; when libraries purchase third party products without testing and blame Evergreen for it not working; reports; the fact that the Base Filters is unnecessarily greyed out when applying an Aggregate Filter and vice versa; evil; and reports more
14:35 rfrasur ooooo....base filters!
14:35 Dyrcona jeff_: EBSCO EDS. It appears to be aimed at academic libraries but one of our publics has signed up for it.
14:37 csharp Dyrcona: I have that same project for PINES libs and GALILEO
18:37 bshum Probably not
18:37 bshum Still, perhaps you've stumbled into a quirky issue area.
18:37 bshum :D
18:37 gsams I suppose it would warrant some testing in some way, since this does appear to be a bug in our system at least
18:38 gsams And I'm not sure if possible incoming libraries would be interested in using this feature
18:38 gsams or current libraries for that matter
18:38 gsams will enquire
18:45 CarrieC left #evergreen
18:48 bshum Well, the code looks like it ought to prompt the user with something.
18:48 bshum I'm going to try testing it on one of our servers to see if it does
18:50 bshum Well the popup worked
18:50 bshum Generated an alert that asks me to verify the hold upon checkin
18:51 bshum So I don't think there's a problem there.
18:52 bshum gsams: Maybe there was something weird with the hold and doing that find another target helped move it on the right path again.
18:52 bshum And that hold verify on the copy location wasn't involved.
18:52 bshum Though good to check and make sure it's what the library wants.
18:53 gsams I did all of those steps before turning it off and it didn't have that behavior then
18:53 bshum Very weird.
18:53 gsams indeed.  I'll take a thorough look into it tonight if I get a chance

17:28 jeff_ even if it's never hit, because the eval test never fires, the use is still parsed/executed...

10:30 jeff there's no current method to do so.
10:30 jeff i've not had need to do so here.
10:31 rfrasur well, honestly, the only need to do it here stems from repeated inaccuracies in input...and a lack of attention.

11:00 jbfink if this works though it will make deployment (in test instances at least) like about super super easy.

13:14 bshum Or "Leave transaction open when lost balance equals zero"
13:20 Dyrcona Right, but the circ may stay open if the copy has not been checked in, or maybe that is what the setting was supposed to resolve?
13:21 Dyrcona Been too long since I looked at it last.
13:27 bshum Yeah I can't remember either.
13:27 bshum I would expect it to stay open till it was checked in.

14:02 ElliotFriend Is it possible in Evergreen to make the "max_number_of_holds" equal to "max_number_checked_out - number_checked_out"?

12:07 bshum Total bill showing underneath the "bills" button in the patron interface.
12:08 Dyrcona bshum: Red usually means a deficit. If it does show up in red maybe it means the library owes the patron.
12:08 bshum Aha!
12:08 Dyrcona You should test that to be sure, though.
12:08 bshum Yeah I'm checking now
12:09 bshum Nope, it's still black for them too.
12:09 bshum $-8.00 in black text
12:09 bshum I think the library is imagining the red.
12:09 bshum Hmm
12:10 Dyrcona I've never seen it in red personally, but I don't work with it that much.
12:10 mmorgan fine threshold is set at $50, and my test patron owes $63.60, which appears in red under the Bills button.

13:49 bshum jihpringle: Curious if you've seen that anywhere in your 2.4 acq testing.

14:47 sborger Shall I email Galen or Kathy for them to quickly upload the minutes to Google docs so everyone can review?
14:47 gmcharlt sborger: please
14:48 sborger Since this was the first meeting, I spent much of the time asking questions to find out what has been done in the past and what is presently done in terms of testing Evergreen.
14:48 gmcharlt #info Minutes of the 2013-07-02 testing conference call are at https://docs.google.com/file/d/1ImfRJ​H4V_5xUhTmv_8ni4ekt7_J-4gBU_EGz_lrOI9​renZEO26QpHCwZ3JRL/edit?usp=sharing

14:50 gmcharlt any questions for sborger?
14:50 sborger Moving forward, it was recommended that we plan another conference call and invite Yamil (DIG), a rep from Equinox (QA project) and a developer (Dan Scott).

11:12 dbs -1 to "in production" as good enough. "in production" means "with one very limited set of settings"
11:13 eeevil dbs: what is good enough, then, for a bug fix?
11:14 dbs and they may be in production, without the other fixes that are in production elsewhere, with not so good results
11:14 eeevil dbs: code changes that aren't tested in production are tested on (normally) one non-author developer's test server
11:15 gmcharlt dbs: I grant that that is a real concern, but do you have any alternative?  a good many things simply do not get tested adequately before they hit master; at least bugfixes that are in actual production use have at least a bit more going for them, no?
11:17 dbs The alternative that I proposed in the past was a commit checklist, which has had no adoption, but would probably be a good idea for sites to look through.
11:18 eeevil to be clear, all, I'm talking about but fixes for common problems. IOW, things that have been seen (in this case, that I have seen) at multiple EG sites, for which a fix has been developed and shown to work
11:18 dbwells I've sometimes wondered if we should adopt a more general bug-aging policy, i.e. and bugfix branch older than X is fair game for the author to commit.  This would not apply to features, and I am not sure what "X" should be.
11:21 eeevil dbs: you're not alone, as you well know (**points at self**), but that's also much more rare these days
11:21 dbs I'm not sure we know what we _want_ to accomplish
11:21 eeevil dbwells: for my part, yes, I'm trying to find a way to get real problems fixed without straying from convention where at all possible
11:22 dbs What I would want to accomplish would be to have a reasonable amount of certainty that a commit doesn't introduce regressions for common but complex scenarios.
11:23 dbs Sounds like phasefx is working towards that with the recreation of Ben's effort from a couple of summers back of an auto-installing VM that runs various test cases and reports on the results, which would be a good move.
11:23 eeevil dbs: in an existential sense? ;)  I know what I'm trying to accomplish: fixes are offered based on problems at live sites, but they are not of the type that many EG developers care about, or feel comfortable working on, or believe effects them or their site
11:24 eeevil and I'm trying to find an equivalent to "wait for someone to care"
11:25 dbs eeevil: no, I sometimes wonder whether one of the goals is "bug inbox zero" and whether that's actually a worthwhile goal (sez the guy with a mail inbox in the thousands)
11:32 * berick reminds self to let things simmer in all cases
11:33 gmcharlt it also points to another factor -- simmering time as compared to the complexity of the patch
11:33 dbwells I am also -1 on this proposal, but that is mostly out of default, and not having enough time and information to properly consider the whole situation.
11:33 eeevil since there is reasonable and thoughtful objection to "production testing is not enough", I'll be leaving 2 bug fixes unmerged for 2.4.1, unless someone wants to put their name on them next to mine.  the two bugs, for reference, are: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1200770 https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1200768
11:33 pinesol_green Launchpad bug 1200770 in Evergreen 2.4 "Search result rendering can crush the system" (affected: 1, heat: 6) [High,New]
11:33 pinesol_green Launchpad bug 1200768 in Evergreen "2 remaining authority fixed fields out of whack" (affected: 1, heat: 6) [Medium,New]
11:34 gmcharlt I can vouch for 1200700, having done quite a bit of back and forth with eeevil over it, FWIW
11:36 dbs complexity, severity, local priorities, expertise - all compounding factors, and poor old i18n gets crushed in many cases :/
11:36 eeevil there's a third that I wanted to get in too, and if my stirring up this mess gets eyes on it that it's been worth it, but it's much newer than those two: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1201962
11:36 pinesol_green Launchpad bug 1201962 in Evergreen 2.4 "hold count by record includes useless where clause" (affected: 1, heat: 6) [Medium,New]
11:37 dbs eeevil: yeah, that one sounded good.
11:38 dbs Many of these would be slam-dunks if we could drop them in, run a standard set of system tests, and note any differences in performance or output
11:39 dbs Otherwise, we eyeball it and take our chances, or go through the laborious process of setting up a test environment, test data, profiling, etc to try and do what machines do better anyway
11:39 eeevil dbs: right, and that is what phasefx is working towards, but until then my hope was (in the case of 1200770) that multiple production sites would be enough
11:39 dbwells eeevil: thanks for posting the bugs, I think that clarifies what you are asking
11:40 eeevil hrm, perhaps that's a factor to consider, actually.  if /multiple/ production sites use the fix, does that make a difference in terms of "production = sign-off"?
12:19 dbwells eeevil: re:1200770, it seems like we might be missing an 'next' where we push the $bid back on.  Otherwise, it seems like we end up running the request again anyway, since it is in just a bare 'else'.
12:21 * eeevil looks
12:22 dbs QA note for phasefx: recording log file sizes and looking for size increases over time might be worthwhile
12:23 phasefx dbs: good idea.  Besides explicit tests with assertions, I'm also thinking of doing straight up diffs of various outputs between runs, and logs certainly qualify
12:25 dbs phasefx: yeah, diffs of expected output is pretty common. logs are going to be fuzzier due to time stamps and what not :/
12:25 phasefx yeah
12:27 eeevil dbwells: yes.  I'm going to force-push a 'next' in there

09:49 jboyer-isl I'm in and out. In now.
09:51 rfrasur I did a little testing on the galaxy tab 7 last night.  it worked well, looked good, etc.  the only thing I was noticed was when I changed orientation it switches to traditional OPAC view (which was expected), but because it's narrower, the facets and results don't fit...and the facets show first.  Is there a way to have an intermediate view that gets those facets out of the way?
09:52 jboyer-isl There is. I'll have to look some things up, but there can easily be an intermediate step between everything and bare bones.
09:54 rfrasur excellent.  Other than that...and I also was thinking about the search view.  I'm not sure that's a big deal after all.  Does it show results based on relevance as default? (I don't really know how to spell relevance/relevence)
09:54 rfrasur but...other than that...I think it's good.  I mean, there's always something to critique/criticize, but it seems like a great step.

12:27 rfrasur also, are we foregoing a limited advanced search forever or just for now?
12:28 jboyer-isl I just meant that the email will never come, and the actual reset may not work if it did. Are you using the same hostname on the desktop vs. mobile? (and NOT letting the keyboard "help" you by auto-capitalizing the first letter of your username? They're ALSO case sensitive...)
12:29 jboyer-isl I'm personally planning to forego advanced search forever. I'm working off the assumption that it's a hassle to enter things into a bunch of fields. I won't argue with anyone else that wants to take care of it.
12:30 rfrasur no, I'm using the standing catalog on the desktop (to make sure that I wasn't messing up the log-in).  let me try the mobile on the desktop and see what it does there.  I'm okay with just the basic search for the same reason you mentioned.

13:39 rfrasur I'm testing Chrome right now.  Browser didn't work on phone...and neither did Firefox on desktop.  Maybe I need to clear out the cache and start over.
13:41 bshum kmlussier: I'll be here and there.  But yeah, in a phone call during the meeting, so I might be a little more distant than I'd like :(
13:41 rfrasur jboyer-isl:fail on phone using chrome
13:41 kmlussier bshum: A little difficult to run a meeting that way. :)

14:09 jboyer-isl It's possible they're all disabled in case a patron tried to play with it., I've not looked at it.
14:09 jboyer-isl disabled because it's the migration server, that is.
14:10 rfrasur ahhh, I gotcha.  You're probably right.  Are you testing it with a staff profile account I'm assuming?
14:10 jboyer-isl yes.
14:10 jboyer-isl They act the same in the OPAC anyway.

15:56 linuxpoet Dyrcona: it is not reasonable to suggest that kind of switch at this time. It isn't like it is something that can be done overnight for this installation
15:56 paxed phasefx: no. we're not in production yet.
15:57 phasefx paxed: roger that
15:57 paxed phasefx: but i do tend to test most of my fixes with our full conversion db
15:57 Dyrcona linuxpoet: You will have fewer problems or none at all if you switch, and you'll get actual useful help.
15:58 Dyrcona Anyway, at that point GNU Make is passing the error up from an executable that it has run. The first [3] suggests it is in the 3 recursive make call, so 3 three Makefiles down.
16:00 bshum linuxpoet: Actually it seems perfectly reasonable to me for Dyrcona to suggest using one of the established known linux distributions that are currently supported by the community documentation for OpenSRF.
17:06 * Dyrcona recently cleaned his hates up. ;)

17:28 jeff_ yeah. i'm not even lucky enough to get it in PickupLocation, but it's in ItemShipped/ShippingInformation/Ph​ysicalAddress/UnstructuredAddress
17:29 Dyrcona Gotta love standards that aren't.
17:29 jeff_ There are codes in the system for individual branches, but the codes don't seem to be used here, so it's unstructured freeform-looking text.
17:29 jeff_ This is because I got impatient and jumped ahead and found a way to test without our contact at the state level, so I could be shown a better way on Monday, but it is seeming unlikely.
17:30 Dyrcona Y'know, it is valid to respond with just the version response if you don't "understand" a message you've received.
17:30 jeff_ It is incredibly likely that we will not expose our end users to the statewide web interface, and will just scrape it on their behalf. :P
17:31 * Dyrcona shudders at the mention of scraping.

12:22 rfrasur my thinking was...present this to comp sci professors/departments as an educational tool.  So, these kids may not actually be involved in the EG community (yet...or ever) or contributing/building anything of value (right now...or ever)
12:23 rfrasur but, it's free software that requires all the basics that get covered in a comp. eng./sci. program...and if the net was thrown over a broad enough area, there could protentially be some quality return.

12:55 rfrasur why wouldn't Google+ integrate bookmarks into a person's profile?
12:56 dbs rfrasur: possibly because it would require browser integration, and not everyone uses Chrome?
12:56 * rfrasur uses Firefox as default.
14:13 rfrasur I like the idea of the Google Hangout.  It may be difficult for those further abroad to handle two trips out east (in our case).
14:14 kmlussier Sure, I don't think I could travel out of state to a doc hack-a-way this year, but would be happy to join via a Hangout if it is hosted in another area.
14:15 yboston BTW, with my intern I used Dropbox to share the files she was converting to AsciiDoc, which we can use in combination with Google hang out
14:15 dbs I highly recommend getting people who plan to join via Google Hangout to go through a test run a few days before, just to ensure everyone's equipment is all good :)
14:15 yboston dbs: thanks
14:15 rfrasur dbs: very good point
14:16 yboston we can try it during a DIG meeting
16:51 dbs we also added some custom code to support users logging in with their LDAP username, even though their actor.usr.usrname was their email address, because of the likelihood of dscott@laurentian.ca clashing with dscott@uwindsor.ca when it came to LDAP uids
16:51 dbs but that's only a consortial concern where more than one LDAP (or CAS in the case of Windsor) system is in play
16:52 dbs LDAP CNs, I should use the appropriate terminology :)
16:55 dbwells berick: are you actively testing it now?  I have a bug fix branch I made a while back for a specific request here in IRC, but never heard back whether it helped them or not.  I am going to try and figure out what happened to that.
16:55 berick dbwells: not this second, but will be doign some poking soon-ish
16:56 berick i'd be glad to review the code.  not sure if I know enough to be of assistance just yet, though.

10:28 rfrasur paxed: my understanding, and this is old understanding that might have been wrong in the beginning - was you could set it up whenever and when it went into effect, it'd alert you when you went into the patron account.

11:08 rfrasur I did clear the cache, but it might not have been enough.
11:08 phasefx the view under Other is read-only.  I think the patron editor and offline patron registration is the only other places they show up
11:09 * paxed hopes for several utf-8 related fixes in -m2 ... :P
11:10 rfrasur testing
11:11 rfrasur (an automatic reload when saving configuration would be nice as well)
11:13 rfrasur okay...the read only did show up...
11:13 rfrasur ty phasefx. hunting around still.
11:15 phasefx rfrasur: automatic reloads may be trickier than you might think, if you expect all of your workstations to instantly get changes like that.  At the time, the mindset was that a lot of these changes were supposed to be treated as big deals and not on the fly tinkering.  I'd like instant updates, though
11:15 rfrasur and it's in the patron registration, but not in the patron acct editor...registration and offline registration.
11:16 rfrasur phasefx: yeah, I understand...and I tend to do a lot more on-the-fly things anyway.  the whole break it and ask questions later.
11:26 acoomes joined #evergreen
11:26 phasefx was a developer itch, but I don't think it was something PINES was pushing for, so it didn't land in jspac
11:27 rfrasur personally, I don't have any desire to do a survey through the OPAC.  I think it'd cheese some people off and confuse some others.  But, if that's the case, and maybe it's already addressed in later versions, that needs to be removed from the UI
11:28 Dyrcona gmcharlt: If you have a test version of MARC::Charset that you'd like me to try, just let me know.
11:28 gmcharlt Dyrcona: soon
11:29 Dyrcona cool
11:29 phasefx rfrasur: I think the only reason for us to even want to implement over just using a dedicated javascript library is the js-lite mandate for the TPAC

14:46 bshum fparks: I'm sure kmlussier and others will be quite interested in what you've found.
14:47 bshum Sounds like a good thing though; I'll have to test it out too, but we don't use hold ratios in our system.
14:47 kmlussier I'm in the process of adding it to Dyrcona's list of development branches. :)
14:48 rfrasur Okay, lovelies - time to shut 'er down and make the trek south.
14:50 kmlussier fparks: I'll see if I can test it soon. If it works, you will make a lot of our libraries very happy. :)
15:05 jeff_ kmlussier: what does hold ratio decide for you?
15:06 jeff_ kmlussier: are you using it to permit/deny renewals, or something else?
15:07 kmlussier jeff_: We aren't using it yet because of bug 1103706. What we want to use it for is to prevent renewals when there are holds on the title and no available copies to fill that hold.
15:12 gsams__ The worst part is I am having trouble duplicating the behavior
15:12 gsams__ but I have seen it happen
15:13 jeff_ you can't reproduce it with an item checked out, placing a copy-level hold on the item, then attempting renewal?
15:14 gsams__ I haven't been able to so far, its really quite odd.  I've been trying to track down the items that this has happened on
15:14 gsams__ I just got a small list of items that this has happened and am about to run tests with those
15:14 jeff_ gsams__: i suspect it may vary depending on if there are any other holds.
15:15 gsams__ jeff_: and I can't verify if the holds were the only ones on those items/titles
15:16 jeff_ my initial thought was that the copy check was done solely on action.hold_copy_map and that copy holds might not use ahcm -- but at least in 2.2, I've confirmed that copy level holds do indeed use ahcm.

13:21 WNPL Expiration date*
13:21 dbwells rfrasur: The intention of the event is to focus on development, especially complex or cross-feature development which can benefit from in-person developer interaction.  I don't want to exclude people outright, but if a person cannot partcipate in such things, then this event isn't really for them.
13:26 yboston rfrasur: I am a member of DIG, and I am planning on attending the hack-away.
