#12:37:43natschilHello, just wondering, what would it take to display evergreen from right to left for languages like arabic?
#12:39:45phasefxmy first concern would be bib records.. do arabic marc records get encoded left to right?
#12:41:22natschil doesn't know, but he thinks its possible to use the MARC editor to create arabic records
#12:49:17phasefxlooks like css (direction: rtl) works for xul textboxes
#12:50:57phasefxit's not making the input go in backwards though.. it's just throwing the cursor to the far right.. don't know if it would behave different with an arabic locale and character set
#12:54:41phasefxI'd experiment with server/skin/global.css and add *.* { direction: rtl; } and see what happens
#12:55:35phasefxnot sure where the equivalent css file is for the opac
#12:56:28dbsnatschil: do you only care about the OPAC?
#13:01:17Chris2222 has joined #openils-evergreen
#13:01:53Chris2222Hi all
#13:02:04natschildbs: well, actually I think the opac has more "parts" that would benefit from left to right, i.e "Heading : Value" parts. The staff client will mainly be used in our library to checkin/out books, so it isn't such a problem.
#13:02:36dbsnatschil: right, that's what I was thinking - the opac would be a more containable piece (at least to start with)
#13:03:11Chris2222I've just reinstalled evergreen (this time on debian) I got all the way to the end and tried to restart apache and get the following error NameVirtualHost *:80 has no VirtualHosts -- Now it won't start. Any suggestions?
#13:03:36natschilChris2222: did you enable the evergreen site (a2ensite eg.conf)
#13:03:49Chris2222natschil: yes
#13:05:22natschilphasefx: but adding the directopn:rtl part would also reverse the direction for english, wouldn't it ?
#13:07:21phase_bbnatschil: doesn't appear too.. Just makes english right justified
#13:09:32Chris2222Interesting. According to the directions on Debian i'm not supposed to delete the "Listen 443" in eg.conf. I commented it out and I get the error but the webserver is working now
#13:10:11dbsthe "has no VirtualHosts" message doesn't matter.
#13:10:21Chris2222Is the error. [warn] NameVirtualHost *:80 has no VirtualHosts" important
#13:10:27Chris2222opps you answered it
#13:10:35Chris2222Thanks dbs
#13:11:14Chris2222i'm going to try to continue by the way this IRC chat is a great resource. You guys have been very good to me and I really really appreciate it.
#13:11:49dbsnatschil: In the OPAC, at least, I think it would be possible to detect the language based on the URL and apply the RTL property accordingly
#13:12:18dbs... or create an RTL skin as a really basic approach ...
#13:14:09natschildbs: ok, I'll look into it, but I'm happy that its a possibility
#13:15:46natschilwith the current arabic translations.... I plugged google translator into the po files, and now I have them somewhat working. The only problem is that now when going into "detailed" view of a record, it is completely empty :(. Any suggestions to what might be wrong?
#13:16:01natschilsorry, I meant record summary.
#13:16:19Chris2222 has quit IRC
#13:16:43dbsnatschil: any errors in apache error log
#13:17:26natschil[Sat Mar 07 21:16:06 2009] [info] SSL Library Error: 336027900 error:140760FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_CLIENT_HELLO:unknown protocol speaking not SSL to HTTPS port!?
#13:17:35dbsnope, not that
#13:17:39natschil[Sat Mar 07 21:14:08 2009] [error] [client 192.168.1.2] unable to include "page_${OILS_PAGE}" in parsed file /openils/var/web/opac/skin/default/xml/body.xml, referer: http://192.168.1.1/opac/ar-EG/skin/default/xml/rresult.xml?rt=keyword&tp=keyword&t=kepple&l=1&d=0&f=
#13:17:45dbsnatschil: typically, something like an entity definition not ound
#13:17:59natschil[Sat Mar 07 21:14:08 2009] [error] [client 192.168.1.2] XMLENT XML Parse Error: syntax error at line 1: parsing /openils/var/web/opac/skin/default/xml/page_rdetail.xml: data [an error occurred while processing this directive], referer: http://192.168.1.1/opac/ar-EG/skin/default/xml/rresult.xml?rt=keyword&tp=keyword&t=kepple&l=1&d=0&f=
#13:18:40lisppaste6natschil pasted "apache errors" at http://paste.lisp.org/display/76623
#13:18:52natschilsorry, that's just one of the errors
#13:20:24dbsokay, so what's line 1976 of /openils/var/web/opac/skin/default/xml/common/cn_browse.xml?
#13:21:33dbsoh wait, that's probably really1976 of opac.dtd
#13:22:01dbsor some combination thereof
#13:22:18dbsApache server-side includes mess up the numbering a tad
#13:24:00mib_tmydvq has joined #openils-evergreen
#13:24:07dbsanyways, probably one of those entities defined in cn_browse.xml is missing a corresponding definition in opac.dtd
#13:24:32mib_tmydvq has quit IRC
#13:27:43natschildbs:so what exactly should I do?
#13:28:44dbsnatschil: figure out with entity defined in cn_browse.xml is missing a corresponding definition in opac.dtd, and add the definition?
#13:28:47christoph_ has joined #openils-evergreen
#13:28:53christoph_ is now known as natschil_
#13:29:08dbsnatschil: for now, you could just turn cn_browse.xml into an empty file I suppose
#13:29:47dbsit's pretty much impossible for me to diagnose the problem
#13:30:04natschilhow do I edit opac.dtd
#13:30:50dbsit should be generated from opac.dtd.po, and gets installed in /openils/var/web/opac/locale/<locale>/ directory
#13:31:00natschilok, I got it in a text editor, I'll see what's missing.
#13:31:15dbsso if opac.dtd is wrong, then there's something wrong with opac.dtd.po
#13:34:04natschilok
#13:34:37natschilI'm not sure if you understand my problem correctly though, my problem is that all of the fields in the record summary are empty, not the translations.
#13:38:54dbsoh, the fields are empty? right, when you said the detailed view was completely empty, I thought you meant it was just a blank page
#13:39:07natschil_sorry, I was a little unclear on that.
#13:40:08dbsyeah. the 'unable to include "page_${OILS_PAGE}"' error is definitely the focal point, but I don't know why it's not able to include it :(
#13:41:01dbsstill sounds like an entity definition error

#13:42:15natschil has quit IRC
#13:42:19_natschil is now known as natschil
#13:42:55natschilI though the problem might be that we don't have arabic marc records in the library, so I set the marc code for ar-EG to eng in config.i18n.locale, but that didn't help
#13:44:16natschilwell, I have to go now, sorry. Thanks for the help, I'll write an email to OPEN-ILS-DEV with all the logs, etc when I have time.
#13:44:54natschiland I'll look into that right to left stuff in the staff client phasefx.

#14:53:22Chris2222Ok, i'm up and running on Evergreen and I added my orgs and some patron groups. I imported a bib record and I could add a volume but it won't let me add an item. It just times out. When I tried this on Ubuntu I was told I would have to apply the patches located at http://svn.open-ils.org/trac/OpenSRF/changeset/1665 and http://svn.open-ils.org/trac/OpenSRF/changeset/1667 . . . Do i need to do this on my debian install???
#14:59:01Chris2222hello?
#15:01:35Chris2222 has quit IRC
#15:06:39dbs@later tell Chris2222 Yes, the same patches for OpenSRF need to be applied everywhere.
#15:06:40pinesoldbs: The operation succeeded.
