[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Debian VMWare image updated to 1.2.2.1
I have updated the Debian VMWare image to Evergreen 1.2.2.1. Along with the version upgrade, I have included the following additional features: * Gutenberg records are preloaded in the database * Reporter is ready to run out of the box * VMWare tools have been updated to VMWare 1.0.5 You can download the image from http://open-ils.org/downloads.php ; instructions for using the image are included in a README file in the Evergreen_Debian directory when you unzip the file. -- Dan Scott Laurentian University
Re: [OPEN-ILS-DEV] Reporter and classic views
Thanks Dan. That did it!Good way to start the week! Robert On Sun Jun 15 23:20 , Dan Scott sent: 2008/6/15 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I setup a template using the Classic Item List source. When running the report the following error message is given in the output folder list: DBD::Pg::st execute failed: ERROR: relation reporter.classic_item_list does not exist The same happens with classic_current_circ. Other Sources seem to work ok. These sources are defined in Evergreen-ILS-1.2.2.1/Open-ILS/src/sql/Pg/example.reporter-extension.sql (adjust to your version of Evergreen), which is not installed by default. You can run a command like: psql -U evergreen -h localhost -f example.reporter-extension.sql if you want to create them. -- Dan Scott Laurentian University
[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Evergreen on Red Hat Linux
I wanted to share the below information with the list. The suggested fix did work. Dale was able to run autogen to completion last week. Unfortunately, we still cannot log on with the client, however! We need to fix that so we can load bibs and items.

So, when building the drivers, make sure to leave that switch out completely: ./configure --disable-docs --with-pgsql I have alerted the libdbi developers, and they confirmed the bug, but I don't think a fix will be rolled in until the next release. Let me know if this helps, Dan Frances Dean McNamara [EMAIL PROTECTED] 6/12/2008 9:16 AM Dan, I noticed in a recent list posting you said you have moved to Red Hat. We are almost there with getting our installation running but have run into the below problem. As you can see, we're working with Bill Erickson, but I thought it was worth asking whether you have seen this problem. Thanks. Frances McNamara University of Chicago
RE: [OPEN-ILS-DEV] Re: [Support] Installing staff clients onnon-privileged Windows accounts
Hi, Brandon - I've seen this happen with Windows Mandatory user accounts (these are the accounts Jason refered to that wipe out any changes to the user's 'Documents and Settings' folder upon logout). Here's Microsoft's page on assigning mandatory profiles. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q307800/ I believe to change a profile away from 'mandatory', you can just change their Ntuser.man file to be named Ntuser.dat. (If the profile is manadtory, then 'Ntuser.man' is found under C:\Documents and Settings\Windows Login Name\). Hope that helps! -Murph Some say the world will end in fire and ice.

Uhlman Cc: open-ils-dev@list.georgialibraries.org Subject: [OPEN-ILS-DEV] Re: [Support] Installing staff clients onnon-privileged Windows accounts We've run into a problem on some of our Windows XP staff clients where users without Administrator rights don't seem to retain workstation registrations. I'm pretty sure this is because the file ws_info is not being written. Are there any magic suggestions that people have other than using Evergreen on user accounts with Administrator rights? Or, are Administrator rights in fact, required? For installation, Administrator rights are not necessarily required, depending on where you try to install the client (if you install to your Desktop, for example, you should not need Admin rights). For regular use, Administrator rights should not be required as long as the prefs.js file in the installation directory has a line reading pref(open-ils.write_in_user_chrome_directory, true); In Windows XP, this would make files like ws_info get written in a directory resembling this: C:\Documents and Settings\phasefx\Application Data\OpenILS\open_ils_staff_client\Profiles\dqh08qrd.default\chrome\ Now, I have seen Windows systems protected in such a way where files in C:\Documents and Settings\ gets purged after the Windows user logs off. I'm not sure how this is done, or whether that's what is affecting you. One thing you could do is run the staff client with the debug window open. This explains how: http://open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=scratchpad:debug_console That'll actually show you the path used for ws_info, and you can then more easily watch the behavior from Windows and see if the file gets created in the first place or deleted after the fact.

[OPEN-ILS-DEV] offline blocked list
Strange doings with the offline blocked list. When running offline-blocked-list.pl, I end up missing one user. I don't see any rhyme or reason for which user it drops, but it seems consistent. For instance, I currently have 4 users set to barred: evergreen=# select count(*) from actor.usr where barred = 't'; count --- 4 When I run the script, I only receive 3: $ /openils/bin/offline-blocked-list.pl /home/opensrf/.srfsh.xml srfsh - echo open-ils.storage open-ils.storage.actor.user.lost_barcodes | /openils/bin/oils_requestor -f /home/opensrf/.srfsh.xml -c srfsh -h blade9.grpl.org - echo open-ils.storage open-ils.storage.actor.user.barred_barcodes | /openils/bin/oils_requestor -f /home/opensrf/.srfsh.xml -c srfsh -h blade9.grpl.org 16822707 B P19751013 B 910911 B - echo open-ils.storage open-ils.storage.actor.user.penalized_barcodes | /openils/bin/oils_requestor -f /home/opensrf/.srfsh.xml -c srfsh -h blade9.grpl.org
Re: [OPEN-ILS-DEV] SPAM: Error loading libdbi driver

Re: [OPEN-ILS-DEV] SPAM: Error loading libdbi driver
Hi Dan, Thanks for pointing this out. This is how I had it before. However, when I set the driver entry under open-ils.cstore and open-ils.reporter-store in opensrf.xml back to pgsql, I get the same result. -dale Dan Scott wrote: Hi Dale: 2008/6/16 Dale Arntson [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi All, I working on installing Evergreen on Redhat , and I've run into a libdbi driver problem.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-DEV] SPAM: Error loading libdbi driver
2008/6/16 Dale Arntson [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi Dan, Thanks for pointing this out. This is how I had it before. However, when I set the driver entry under open-ils.cstore and open-ils.reporter-store in opensrf.xml back to pgsql, I get the same result. Hmm. That really doesn't make sense; I would expect a different set of errors, at the least. open-ils.cstore should not be trying to load Pg as a driver. I noticed in your opensrf.xml file that you're pointing to /opt/openils in most cases. Is there any chance that settings-tester.pl is checking the wrong version of opensrf_core.xml / opensrf.xml? By default, it reads /openils/conf/opensrf_core.xml and figures out which opensrf.xml to read from there: you can use the --config option to override this if need be. I should also point out that while in theory using a prefix other than /openils/ should work, very few people (perhaps none) have actually tried that out in practice. It's possible you may be running into some hardcoded assumptions about file placement. You might want to keep things as simple as possible to start with by sticking with /openils/ for now and keeping the number of changes to opensrf_core.xml and opensrf.xml to a minimum. -- Dan Scott Laurentian University
