Owen,

Christopher said ³for many, travel outside of the U.S. Is prohibited,² which 
sounds more like travel constraints due to policy reasons, not due to cost. If 
we¹re really talking about cost-optimization, then the focus on contiguous-US 
is misplaced: cost has more to do with location than distance, some locations 
are simply much higher cost to stay. For example, my recent conference trip to 
Chicago (c. 400 miles), flying and driving were close to the same cost, but the 
cost of accommodations by far exceeded everything else. Chicago is expensive, 
New York is expensive, San Francisco is expensive, Winnipeg is not. It has 
nothing to do with political boundaries. The majority of Canadian population 
lives relatively close to the Canadian-US border, Edmonton being the most 
egregious outlier.

Agreed, we need to step back and rethink, What problem are we trying to solve? 
ŒHot water¹ doesn¹t say much.

If that answer drives the shape and expanse of the organization, or chapter, 
then fine. But not until that is decided do we name something. It is now 
obvious to me the exercise of naming something is way too premature.

I agree, the frequency of face-to-face meetings can be reduced if it’s too
expensive. However, there is nothing like the serendipity offered by a
face-to-face meeting or conference. And maybe that luxury is something
done infrequently, or maybe with regional chapters.

But I go back to what I said previously: what problem are we trying to
solve?

If it’s about cost, then this new line of discussion has value.

Hello Balaji,

It's because newer version of Koha prefer virtual host  before port based
configuration. If you still wan't/need to use ports, you'll have to edit
the /etc/koha/koha-sites.conf file and set set INTRAPORT to 8080

Re: [Koha] [Koha North America] Your suggestions for a new name of Koha NA

2015-12-21 Thread Owen Leonard
I think everyone needs to pause and reflect on what the goal of this
process is, because we seem to be continuing to dig this hole deeper
instead of climbing out.

> all face-to-face meetings will be
> held within the contiguous U.S. to ensure that U.S. Koha users have a
> better chance to attend them (for many, travel outside of the U.S. is
> prohibited).

The goal of this process is to define the terms of a Koha user group
which meets within the contiguous United States. This narrow
definition is of the location of the meetings, not of those who are
welcome in the group.

This rule about meeting locations is not made in order to be
exclusionary, but in order to create more opportunities for U.S.
members to participate. The United States is big, travel is expensive,
and libraries don't like to spend money.

I would encourage everyone to make suggestions which don't have "North
America" or "America" as a basis. Both terms include areas which are
outside the contiguous United States and thus explicitly excluded.
Take a look at the maps:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_America
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Americas

Terms like "North America" and "America" are WHY we're hot water in
the first place.

Re: [Koha] Borrowers Table Uniqueid

2015-12-21 Thread Tomas Cohen Arazi
First, identify those duplicated userid's. (Beware it talks about 'userid',
not 'uniqueid'):

> SELECT userid FROM (SELECT userid,COUNT(userid) AS the_count FROM
borrowers GROUP BY userid) a WHERE the_count > 1;

Then I'd go look at each of the (at least) duplicated userid's like this:

> SELECT firstname, surname, email, cardnumber FROM borrowers WHERE
userid=;

I usually just picked the cardnumber as the new userid:

> UPDATE borrowers SET userid=cardnumber WHERE userid=;

You could go with the email, it really depends on your taste/common
practices. This is not ideal, but should do the work.

Good luck

Note:
You will probably find several userid's to be NULL. In that case, the
second query should be like:

> SELECT firstname, surname, email, cardnumber FROM borrowers WHERE userid
IS NULL;

and so the UPDATE query.

Re: [Koha] Koha 3.12 Installation

2015-12-21 Thread Barry Cannon
Is your apache configured to listen on port 8080? What does "sudo netstat 
-anplt | grep 8080" show? If nothing, try modifying /etc/apache2/ports.conf and 
adding "Listen 8080" then restarting apache.

From a non-US perspective, this thread is priceless. Thanks a lot to everyone 
involved, please keep us entertained.

PS. Do you really not understand that you are neither "North America" nor 
"America" but just the US of some part of America? It's very easy to see from

[Koha] Borrowers Table Uniqueid

2015-12-21 Thread Phillip Ponchot
A recent update to Koha 3.19 pointed out that I have some records in the 
Borrowers Table that lack a UniqueID  so that the UniqueID field could not be 
made "unique".


I need to update the records in this table.  Is there an easy way to do this 
via mysql?


Thanks,


Phillip

I personally like KohaUS ( or should it be KoHaUS ). It indicates it is US
centric, and more importantly, it can be pronounced ( Ko-House ).

Re: [Koha] [ByWater Partners] [Koha North America] Your suggestions for a new name of Koha NA

2015-12-21 Thread Stebbings, Wade
Owen,

Christopher said ³for many, travel outside of the U.S. Is prohibited,²
which sounds more like travel constraints due to policy reasons, not due
to cost. If we¹re really talking about cost-optimization, then the focus
on contiguous-US is misplaced: cost has more to do with location than
distance, some locations are simply much higher cost to stay. For example,
my recent conference trip to Chicago (c. 400 miles), flying and driving
were close to the same cost, but the cost of accommodations by far
exceeded everything else. Chicago is expensive, New York is expensive, San
Francisco is expensive, Winnipeg is not. It has nothing to do with
political boundaries. The majority of Canadian population lives relatively
close to the Canadian-US border, Edmonton being the most egregious outlier.

Agreed, we need to step back and rethink, What problem are we trying to
solve? ŒHot water¹ doesn¹t say much.

If that answer drives the shape and expanse of the organization, or
chapter, then fine. But not until that is decided do we name something. It
is now obvious to me the exercise of naming something is way too premature.
