13:23 kmlussier I need to head out, but thanks everyone for listening to me vent. If I have time this weekend, maybe I'll do the legwork of going through the Wayback machine in the hopes that somebody with power can address this.

14:12 JBoyer Dyrcona, an FYI for you since I know we're both interested, I was testing NCIPServer on Buster and Bullseye and things seem fine without the patch from lp 1732485 . Have you tested things on Ubuntu 20.04+
14:12 JBoyer ?
14:12 pinesol Launchpad bug 1732485 in NCIPServer "Crash with mime type application/xml on recent distros" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1732485
14:14 JBoyer (granted, I'm mostly throwing LookupUser requests at it with curl, but things work with and without the Content-Type: application/xml header.
14:15 Dyrcona JBoyer: I don't think I have tested NCIP on Ubuntu 20.04+. I know that I have not tested it on Ubuntu 22.04.
14:16 JBoyer Possibly good news then, though i guess if you're not going to be managing the hosting it's not such a big deal locally. :)
14:19 Dyrcona Well, I should try it anyway.
14:21 Dyrcona Not today, though...

10:27 Dyrcona And, I always force the record encoding to UTF-8 via options.
10:28 Dyrcona There are also no differences in how they handle the encoding option input or output.
10:28 Dyrcona There's something weird going on with one set of records, and I'll modify my generic preprocessor to use utf8 on the output.
10:29 Dyrcona I'll have to test if that breaks other record loads, and if so, add an exception for Kanopy.....
10:29 Dyrcona Y'know. I may just add the exception for Kanopy anyway....
10:31 Dyrcona It's ugly, but it's Perl.
10:34 Dyrcona I did plan on using a shell wrapper around the generic script for the Overdrive records, but that got put on hold because of other things.

12:03 jeff one log message that could help looks like this:
12:03 jeff $logger->info("updating pickup lib for hold ".$hold->id." while on holds shelf");
12:04 jvwoolf jeff++
12:08 jeff I believe the "Wrong Shelf" hold status is designed to be noticed if staff are viewing the hold shelf in the staff client, especially the "show clearable holds" part. In our environment, we'd likely use a report for that, similar to how we report on cancelled holds on shelf.
12:11 jeff I'm not sure without some more digging/testing how the hold would behave, but I think everything would stop regarding that hold and copy until the copy was checked in, at which point it would go in transit to the new pickup_lib.
12:13 jvwoolf I think I figured out what might be going on
12:13 jvwoolf Someone is trying to filter the pull list by pickup library, but they're changing the pickup library for the holds on the list instead

10:26 berick this one was count of circs per month in 2018
10:38 miker I'd suggest SR might be the wrong tool for that particular report ;) ... and that's only about 1/4 snarky -- the example a trivial template to create and share in the normal reporter, and SR is meant to make Hard(tm) things (arguably some impossible things, for normal folks in the normal reporter) simple(r), not all things one-click easy AND fast.  It trades internal complexity for external simplicity.

15:31 mmorgan FIFO question. If a library has FIFO set as best-hold selection sort order, shouldn't the item be captured for the hold with the highest priority, no matter the pickup location?
15:32 mmorgan I'm finding that a local hold is captured when there are higher priority holds for pickup elsewhere.
15:33 mmorgan We don't use FIFO, just testing for a particular situation.

10:16 Dyrcona I'm going to try and solve my record issue by rewriting the prep script in Python using PyMarc and chardet to autodetect the character set of each record. I wonder what chardet will say about MARC-8 records? Maybe, it will call them ISO 2022?
10:23 Dyrcona Maybe I can keep most of the Perl code and just throw the XML at a character set detection program?
10:30 Dyrcona Running chardet on the input files says, "utf-8 with confidence 0.99."
10:30 * Dyrcona sighs. Guess I'll just jam the bad records in, like my current test is doing.

11:29 Dyrcona I wonder if $raw =~ s/\xC2/.../g; works on UTF-8 files that might have \xC2A9 and other multibyte sequences....
11:32 Dyrcona I suppose that I could test it.
11:53 Dyrcona Weird, 0xC2A doesn't give me they copyright symbol. Let me try it reversed for little endian.
11:54 Dyrcona Funny, too, how 0xC2 only prints "correctly" when other unicode sequences are in the string. Otherwise it prints as an unknown character glyph.
12:26 Dyrcona Unicode in Perl is a pain.

11:38 mmorgan Thanks!
11:38 * mmorgan now moves on to 4. profit and 5. invest wisely :)
11:45 * mmorgan has been trying all morning to test a checkin of an item in a certain shelving location with a particular variety of item alerts.
11:46 mmorgan It has been an adventure just setting up the scenario :-/
11:55 csharp_ has anyone developed/found any tools that would be useful in de-duping authority records?
11:56 csharp_ mmorgan: don't you wish some of the end users who are always mad that something "isn't fixed" could watch what we do sometimes? :-)
12:01 mmorgan csharp_: Actually, I feel for them! This library is trying to use the shelving location attribute Hold capture delay and it's not working with item alerts. Evergreen just seems to "forget" that it's in the middle of a checkin.
12:03 mmorgan Our test system is on 3.8.1 and I ran across a couple of item alert bugs that are fixed - in 3.8.2
12:04 mmorgan rabbit-holes--
12:07 jihpringle mmorgan: that sounds very similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/evergreen/+bug/1735221
12:07 pinesol Launchpad bug 1735221 in Evergreen "webclient: items with copy alert and hold verify fail to capture for hold" [Low,Confirmed]
12:08 mmorgan jihpringle++
12:08 mmorgan Aha! Didn't find that and it's exactly the issue!
12:10 mmorgan And it's not a new issue either.
12:11 jihpringle ya, we've been running into that one since we switched to the web client
12:12 jihpringle it's on my list to test in 3.9 and possibly in the angualr circ (if that server is still up this week)
12:14 mmorgan Definitely still an issue in 3.8!
12:18 mmorgan Our library is trying to use hold capture delay for hotspots, I think they need to check or reset them before they can go out again. I suggested they use the hold capture delay, not knowing there was a bug :-(
12:21 jihpringle they could use the Suppress Holds and Transits check in modifier (not as good since staff have to remember to use it) but could work for now
12:25 mmorgan jihpringle: Thanks, I will suggest that option. Just commented on the bug.
12:27 jihpringle just tested it in the new angular circ and it's still an issue there
12:27 jihpringle I'll update the bug and the circ spreadsheet
12:45 Dyrcona I didn't look very hard, but it appears to me that hold verify is just gonna break checkin no matter what. The location having hold_verify set does a bail on events, and do checkin returns if there is a bail on events right after that check is made. However, I didn't look much farther than that and circulation code is tricky.
13:01 mmorgan left #evergreen
13:11 * Dyrcona wonders if it is time to have the community git discussion again. We're looking at possibly making some changes here because of things going on, and  it would be useful if we could link what we're doing with the community.

15:57 berick i think it only uses memcache for certain types of values
15:57 berick otherwise, just a locally cached value
15:58 Bmagic browser cache? apache cache maybe?
15:58 Bmagic on a test machine, the variable looks like this: $VAR1 = bless( [569,'icon_format','eaudio','E-audi​o',undef,'t','E-audio','f',undef], 'Fieldmapper::config::coded_value_map' );node
15:59 Dyrcona The memcache key looks like "EGWeb.$locale.$hint." where $locale is the current locale (probably en-US) and $hint is the IDL classs: ccvm.
15:59 Bmagic but on the broken system: $VAR1 = ''
16:00 Dyrcona The list will have list appended, so : "EGWeb.en-US.ccvm.list" or something like that.
16:30 Bmagic sounds good to me. I'll just have to wait till night
16:31 Dyrcona If you empty out the list key, it might reload. I think it works like that. berick would know better than I.
16:31 Bmagic that key isn't in the cache
16:32 Bmagic it exists on my test system, but not on the broken system
16:37 berick the only thing that would prevent it from getting added to the cache is if the value for the requested ID is in the process-level cache
16:37 berick but if you reload Apache, then that should be moot
16:37 berick may restart apache instead *shrug*

12:15 berick working on cleaning up the branch now
12:18 Dyrcona Crazy. I'm still seeing the discrepancy in 856 display on this test vm compared to production, and I can't find the difference in the code.
12:28 Dyrcona Hmm.... Looks like the difference may be in the database. 856$3 shows up in asset.uri.label in the test db but goes in asset.uri.use_restriction in production.
12:28 Dyrcona But! The database code should be identical since the test db was restored from a dump on Sunday.
12:29 collum joined #evergreen
12:29 mmorgan Dyrcona: Is there a difference in the function biblio.extract_located_uris?
12:34 Dyrcona mmorgan: I'll check but there shouldn't be. It's a restored dump, both on Pg 10.
12:47 Dyrcona But, how.....
12:48 Dyrcona I have only 1 biblio.extract_located_uris, so there's not one with a different signature hanging around.
12:51 Dyrcona According to the db function, $Z or $2 should go in use_restriction and $y or $3 should go into label. My production db entries look like $y or $z is in label and $3 is in use_restriction.
12:53 Dyrcona My old entries in the test database look like production, but when I update them, they get the "correct" values. I'm going to see if I can find some that were recently added. I suspect we had a hacked version of the db function that didn't make it through an upgrade.
12:55 Dyrcona Too bad I don't have any really old dumps hanging around....
12:55 Dyrcona Hmm... I'll check the training server it might be old enough.
12:55 Dyrcona mmorgan++
15:22 Dyrcona DB server is slow while it's creating a database with another as a template.

16:35 * Dyrcona tests if setting an internal flag during a transaction, doing an update, then resetting the flag before commit works. I think it does, but the answer is that may depend on deferred triggers or not.
16:36 Dyrcona I know that the internal flag update won't be visible outside of the transaction.
16:36 Dyrcona Hmm... what's the thing to make all triggers immediate.....
16:40 Dyrcona SET CONSTRAINTS ALL IMMEDIATE; # If you ever need it.
16:40 Dyrcona That might break things for me but we'll see.
16:41 * Dyrcona has a feeling the test transaction won't finish in the next 20 minutes, so we'll have to wait until tomorrow morning.

12:32 Dyrcona DBD::Pg++
13:03 Dyrcona Hrm.. URIs aren't displaying correctly on my test VM, and I just merged my production branch into my test branch....
13:04 Dyrcona And, there are no differences in the OPAC according to git diff....
13:13 Dyrcona Grr... Thought maybe a git clean -xfd and a rebuild would help, but no....
13:14 Dyrcona In production, the link is on subfield z and subfield 3 appears after it. On my test VM it is the opposite in both ways.
13:21 Dyrcona Not even wiping out the installed bootstrap templates and reinstalling them helped....
13:22 jvwoolf left #evergreen
13:29 Dyrcona Ah, wait a minute.... I recall something now about a difference between the ttopac and bootstrap opac and I had to patch it. However the patch doesn't seem to be missing from the git branch AFAICT.
13:48 Dyrcona But the results are definitely different....
13:53 * Dyrcona is perplexed, but this will have to wait, I guess.
14:46 shulabear joined #evergreen
14:46 Dyrcona The training server looks like production, but I can't find any relevant differences between the test vm branch and those for training or production. The installed files also match those from the branches. Is there some server cache that I'm overlooking?
14:50 terranm joined #evergreen
14:50 Dyrcona Found the eg_template_cache in the systemd temp files and deleted it just in case. Makes no difference on training.
14:53 Dyrcona Oh... I see one thing. There's a bug in a program that I'm running to update 856s. That might be the culprit...
15:08 gmcharlt_ yes, please sign up on the spreadsheet; I'll start bugging people by Thursday
15:08 shulabear gmcharlt++ Dyrcona++
15:09 JBoyer I know a few people may be in late or may not make the meeting, I can send something to the dev list unless you're planning to.
15:09 gmcharlt_ and I think otherwise, given the spurt of activity the past couple days, that help testing pending Angular holdings and item editor bugs would be Good Thing
15:09 gmcharlt_ JBoyer: I'll coordinate it
15:09 JBoyer gmcharlt_++
15:09 terranm gmcharlt_++
15:10 JBoyer It sounds like point releases are on their way, any discussion before moving on to LP stats updates?
15:15 JBoyer And +1 to spacing also. Were they forced together for some reason or has experience suggested that they need more space than before?
15:15 terranm I think it just happened sort of randomly
15:16 JBoyer Dyrcona, perhaps worth checking, is the person you're thinking of here?
15:17 terranm I think we get more testing participation if they are spaced out rather than in two months back to back
15:17 Dyrcona JBoyer: They
15:17 berick i should be able to host a bug squashing VM this time around
15:17 terranm berick++
15:27 berick sans menu entry changes, I should say
15:27 gmcharlt_ the branch is realistically far too large for detailed patch-level scrutiny
15:27 berick yeah, it's a beast
15:28 gmcharlt_ but if we merge soon (and I do see reasons for doing that), I think we're going to need to organize community testing on a large scale; possibly larger than previoulsy attempted
15:28 berick my thinking is if the UI is not yet exposed, a minimal amount of the new code will actually be used.
15:29 berick once we do expose the new UI's, which may come after 3.10, then loads of testing would be needed
15:29 gmcharlt_ yeah, but that just kicks the can down the road, since of course the point is eventually to switch to it
15:29 Dyrcona gmcharlt_++
15:29 Dyrcona +1, too.... I think if it goes in, turn it on.
15:30 berick sort of.  if we can expose less ambitious interfaces that use the underlying code, then we get the chance to test parts of it without flipping a giant switch
15:30 gmcharlt_ so I think what I'm saying is that organizing broad testing needs to happen on the heals of a merge
15:30 gmcharlt_ *heels
15:31 berick gmcharlt_: so you're thinking flip the big switch on day one too?
15:32 terranm I could work up a list of tasks that need to be tested for each of the new interfaces as a starting point. It might be easier to get people to test if it's broken into bite-sized pieces.
15:32 mmorgan Just to clarify, right now, the new uis are under an org unit setting?
15:32 gmcharlt_ more like stand up test systems that have the switch flipped
15:32 berick mmorgan: sort of.  it's kind of a mess what we have.
15:32 berick that we were going to test with
15:32 berick i'm of the opinion that when we do flip the switch, it has to be fully flipped or it's going to get really confusing real fast
15:33 berick hopping between the same UI's depending on how you got there
15:33 gmcharlt_ (also noting that soon there will be a dump of the Angular acquisitions sprint 4 stuff, though that's more self-contained than the patron/circ stuff)
15:34 JBoyer terranm++ I do think having a reminder of what all needs to be tested helps. I wonder if some of the staff interfaces have the 1-2 things users do *most* and then say "yeah, didn't fall over" by end users. A guide would help them test things they maybe do quarterly or less.
15:34 mmorgan terranm++
15:34 mmorgan +1 to broad community testing
15:35 shulabear terranm++
15:35 gmcharlt_ also, I think the more that the branch can be cleaned up to have new and changed shared component live in self-contained patches, the better
15:36 gmcharlt_ as individually, those should be much more amenable to piecemeal testing by devs and committers
15:38 berick yeah, i can clean up the shared/core changes.  that's a small portion of it.
15:39 gmcharlt_ and I think the other thing that would help is ensuring that there's one big ol' switch (or maybe a small set of them) to reliably switch between old and new interfaces
15:39 berick it gets a little complicated with the patron UI, since it's basically one big application.  it kind has to be added as a whole.
15:42 jeff another option is to have no switch, and "don't upgrade" is your only switch. combined with potentially a longer support life for the previous release, that might make sunsetting the old interfaces more of a sure thing.
15:42 berick jeff: that would be my pref.
15:43 berick running them side by side will get messy no matter what, imo
15:43 gmcharlt_ that still presupposes actively organized and broad testing
15:43 berick absolutely
15:43 * Bmagic scrolls up
15:44 * phasefx still remembers having three or so pull lists
15:44 gmcharlt_ but I mislike the notion of potenially have 3.10.0 end up being intentionally full of regressions
15:44 berick but going back to my original proposal, if we merge the code without any menu/link updates, then we have a body of code we can start building on, which will have the affect of testing said code.  Eg. it's a lot easier to test a new Item Status UI then overhauling the whole patron UI.
15:44 mmorgan gmcharlt_++
15:44 gmcharlt_ I wonder if we should consider an extended timeframe for 3.10, balanced with a brief 3.11
15:45 berick i wasn't trying to flip the switch for 3.10.  a full switch flip should happen basically the day after a major release is made
15:48 mmorgan berick: Meaning not going all in and the "switch" being don't upgrade.
15:48 gmcharlt_ JBoyer: one huge change and a largish change (acq)
15:48 Dyrcona Why not add it after 3.10, go all in, and 3.11 becomes 4.0 if the changes are that big?
15:49 gmcharlt_ because anything that isn't turned until 3.11 will largely not get significant testing untikl 3.11 starts (is my fear)
15:50 Dyrcona Anyone testing leading up to the 3.11 release would be using the new interfaces.
15:50 gmcharlt_ berick: let me ask you this - assuming a longer 3.10 cycle, is your branch essentially feature complete now? (barring the inevitable obscure YAOUS implementations and so forth)?
15:50 phasefx this is probably crazy, but how about we hold releases hostage until we get significant testing?  super long rc-1 for whatever holds the new stuff
15:51 gmcharlt_ or are there significant known bits of the overall AngularJS circ app that aren't yet implemented in Angular?
15:51 berick gmcharlt_: we're using in production, w/ some patches I have not yet backported.  I think the patron messages stuff might need some tweaking as well
15:51 berick since it was concurrently developed
15:54 gmcharlt_ and it sounds like - other than catching up with trigger events interfaces and notes/messages changes - there aren't significant ones?
15:54 berick no, those are the 2 menu items that are disabled in the UI right now
15:54 berick should be the only big things
15:55 gmcharlt_ in that case, here's a thought
15:55 gmcharlt_ 1. ensure that there's a Big Red Switch for insurance purposes
15:55 gmcharlt_ 2. merge sooner rather than later, hopefully with some cleanup of the branch
15:56 gmcharlt_ 3. target this for 3.10, then aim for broad testing
15:56 berick what if the Big Red Switch is a patch/commit?  making all the links/buttons have optional destinations is non-trivial
15:56 gmcharlt_ 3a  including nudges, test systems, etc.
15:57 gmcharlt_ 4. we agree to prepare to extend 3.10 into November, possibly early December
15:58 gmcharlt_ 5. and by mid-November, review the state of the bugs against the Angular interfaces and make a go/no-go decision
15:58 gmcharlt_ 5a. (which is potentially when the decision to apply the BRS as a commit, if that's what it has to be, gets made)
15:58 gmcharlt_ (end of my list)
15:59 gmcharlt_ but basically, combine (a) a quick merge so that the code doesn't age or diverge too much with (b) a much more intentional testing stance for a big change like this than may have been the case in the past
16:00 gmcharlt_ without kicking the can to 3.11, since the testing needs to happen eventually and it would be good not to block the potentiall for normal enhancements to patrons/circ
16:00 berick gmcharlt_: ok, that makes sense.  and the BRS will be a commit that just reverses all the link/button/menu changes?
16:01 berick or a revert, basically
16:02 gmcharlt_ if need be; a global setting / YAOUS would make it easier for ongoing testing if we're not confident enough to release 3.10 with $NewCirc, but if it's not feasible, it's not feasible
16:03 berick k.  do-able, was just hoping to avoid that, but I understand the desire.
16:03 berick a bold plan and I like it

09:55 pinesol Dyrcona: Destructo Dog is probably integrated with systemd
09:56 Dyrcona Anyway, I'm thinking of switching over to using Pg 14 instead of 10 as the main PostgreSQL instance over the weekend, so that means I may have to cut this test run short.
09:57 Dyrcona I did start another query on the same cluster: 239373 | 00:26:26.838289 | active | 192.168.100.103 | psql        | delete from action.hold_request where frozen and thaw_date is null and request_time::date < now()::date - '1 years'::interval;
09:59 Dyrcona I should probably have that query output the database name, but I typically use it only the production Evergreen dbs where evergreen is the only active database.

11:23 miker yeah, the delayed reification isn't actually being tested... wheeee
11:23 miker you're just testing the deadlock code (again)
11:23 Dyrcona Did I miss a flag to turn that on?
11:24 miker the pingest param is supposed to casue a function to be called that turns that delay feature on, and then at the end it calls a separate "clean it all up" function
11:24 miker you know pingest better than me, so I'd appreciate eyes on that logic change
11:26 Dyrcona OK. So, I missed using that option.
11:27 Dyrcona Can I ask why that is optional? Shouldn't it just work that way, all the time?
11:28 Dyrcona I simply forgot about the option when I started the test run. This is what happens when you a) get older, b) work on many things, and c) have to put one thing down for a week or more before coming back to it.
11:33 miker because for non-batch ingest it just creates headaches. human bib editing doesn't interact often enough to matter, but because it does cause serialization (INSERT ... ON CONFLICT does that to prevent deadlocks) with intentionally parallel updates the delay makes it overall faster. same thing as with the browse part of ingest
11:34 miker now, I could certainly see making it the default for pingest! but I didn't want to change the default behavior on my own
11:34 miker default behavior of pingest, I mean

13:15 stompro__ Passive is working for Filezilla because it has a setting that automatically substitutes the servers public IP if a private IP is returned in response to a PASV command, so they must have their port forwards setup at least.  Maybe NET::FTP could be adjusted to have that behavior?

11:14 Bmagic B&T had a "meeting" yesterday. Still no worky today
11:29 Dyrcona B&T seems to be working with PASV today, but it is taking two minutes per connection. I have logs that look we're getting things via the fetcher. I've not checked the pusher, yet.
11:30 Dyrcona We're looking at configuring our firewall for active FTP.
11:31 Dyrcona miker: Cool! I was thinking more eyes would be good, but I'm not sure who else would get to testing it nor when they could make time.
11:31 Dyrcona miker: I'm testing with production data upgraded to rel_3_9 latest today.
11:56 stompro__ berick, we added an ftp proxy helper to our firewall and switched to Active mode for B&T ftp last week and that has been working.  We noticed that on the 14th, they broke their own invoice uploading to the ftp server so invoices that should have been received that day are missing.
12:03 stompro__ berick, I just tested passive mode and it does seem to be working now, at least more than it was.  The initial file list works now.
12:04 berick thanks stompro__
12:05 stompro__ I'm not seeing the 2 minute delay that Dyrcona mentioned... but maybe that is for actual uploads?
12:06 stompro__ I tried downloading a response and it seemed to work fine... but I'm just testing with filezilla on my workstation.
12:12 Dyrcona The 2-minute delay seems to happen when we get 0 files.
