| * th1a is playing with cron. | 16:00 | |
| th1a | hi replaceafill. | 16:00 |
|---|---|---|
| replaceafill | hey th1a | 16:00 |
| th1a | It looks like cron likes to send emails more than logging. | 16:01 |
| th1a | Which is a little odd, but whatever. | 16:02 |
| th1a | Have you used this much? | 16:02 |
| replaceafill | a little | 16:02 |
| replaceafill | i always forget what all the columns mean | 16:02 |
| th1a | You can just use /etc/cron.daily or /etc/cron.hourly | 16:03 |
| th1a | Put in a 1 line shell script. | 16:03 |
| th1a | (if you're just running repozo) | 16:03 |
| replaceafill | ah | 16:04 |
| th1a | It just wants to email the output to root, so if you want to see it you have to install postfix. | 16:05 |
| replaceafill | ah, true, i kind of remember that | 16:06 |
| replaceafill | having to use the mail command to see what's been happening | 16:06 |
| th1a | Yeah. | 16:06 |
| th1a | Well, there are worse problems. | 16:06 |
| th1a | That one could have. | 16:07 |
| th1a | I am feeling better. | 16:07 |
| th1a | No news is good news. | 16:07 |
| *** menesis has quit IRC | 16:08 | |
| replaceafill | great | 16:08 |
| replaceafill | i tested the mod wsgi approach for the dashboardd | 16:08 |
| replaceafill | unfortunately, you cannot run a wsgi daemon process as root :( | 16:09 |
| th1a | Why do we need to? | 16:10 |
| replaceafill | the dashboard overwrite config files | 16:10 |
| replaceafill | overwrites | 16:10 |
| replaceafill | turns "zeo_local.conf" into "zeo.conf" | 16:10 |
| replaceafill | when you want to browse the instance locally | 16:11 |
| th1a | Ah... yes. | 16:11 |
| replaceafill | that needs root | 16:11 |
| th1a | Does root really need to own those? | 16:11 |
| replaceafill | i thought of adding rules to the packages to change that | 16:12 |
| replaceafill | but i haven't tried it yet | 16:13 |
| th1a | I don't see why it wouldn't work. | 16:13 |
| replaceafill | chown to the schooltool user | 16:13 |
| replaceafill | and remember after you rename the files, you need to restart the service | 16:13 |
| replaceafill | and i'm not sure the schooltool user can do that | 16:14 |
| replaceafill | currently, the init.d scripts for schooltool run as root | 16:14 |
| replaceafill | but use supervisor to run as schooltool | 16:14 |
| replaceafill | i'll try that today | 16:15 |
| replaceafill | ah btw | 16:16 |
| replaceafill | could you try this when you have time: | 16:16 |
| replaceafill | https://code.launchpad.net/~schooltool-owners/+junk/instance_copier | 16:16 |
| th1a | OK, just got an email from Sunesh. | 16:16 |
| replaceafill | good news or bad news? | 16:16 |
| th1a | The changes all seem trivial. | 16:19 |
| th1a | I forwarded it to you. | 16:19 |
| replaceafill | reading... | 16:19 |
| replaceafill | thanks | 16:19 |
| replaceafill | lots of overrides incoming :) | 16:21 |
| th1a | We can cut out reports and stuff in their package though, right? | 16:22 |
| replaceafill | yeah, just disable those viewlets | 16:22 |
| replaceafill | now we'll need the schooltool.peas package i guess | 16:22 |
| th1a | Yes. | 16:22 |
| replaceafill | i don't understand why (or when) they want to hide the "Substitute Teacher" dropdown | 16:24 |
| replaceafill | not set the sub at all? | 16:24 |
| th1a | Um, yeah. | 16:24 |
| th1a | ? | 16:25 |
| th1a | I'll ask. | 16:25 |
| replaceafill | and "filter group" to "filter class" seems like they're looking for "filter section"? | 16:25 |
| th1a | I'll ask. | 16:27 |
| th1a | Attendance is not automatically set to present, right? | 16:27 |
| replaceafill | no | 16:28 |
| replaceafill | there's no present mark or anything by default | 16:28 |
| th1a | Oh, we don't have autofill on this. | 16:28 |
| replaceafill | ah | 16:28 |
| replaceafill | true | 16:28 |
| th1a | Do we in the normal journal? | 16:28 |
| th1a | Don't we? | 16:28 |
| replaceafill | in the section journals yes | 16:29 |
| th1a | OK, we could add that. | 16:29 |
| replaceafill | in the school journal i think we dont | 16:29 |
| replaceafill | ok | 16:29 |
| th1a | Uh... ok how long would these take? | 16:31 |
| replaceafill | i'd say 2 days | 16:32 |
| th1a | The ID generation is the only issue sort of. | 16:32 |
| th1a | Are you including that? | 16:32 |
| replaceafill | not really | 16:32 |
| th1a | We could just have them do that in excel. | 16:33 |
| th1a | Right, that's easy in excel? | 16:33 |
| replaceafill | yeah | 16:33 |
| replaceafill | are we going to use the demographics ID for that? | 16:33 |
| th1a | It just depends on what they want. | 16:34 |
| th1a | Any day you can't meet after 2:00 next week? | 16:35 |
| replaceafill | we need to store the school code | 16:35 |
| th1a | (i.e., now) | 16:35 |
| th1a | Why? | 16:35 |
| replaceafill | i can meet 2:00 all week | 16:35 |
| replaceafill | it's used to generate the ids | 16:35 |
| replaceafill | i mean, if we generate them automatically for students without them | 16:36 |
| th1a | Right. OK, I'm going to write a reply before I have to go. | 16:37 |
| replaceafill | kk | 16:37 |
| th1a | Anything else from you? | 16:37 |
| replaceafill | no, that's it | 16:37 |
| th1a | Meeting-wise? | 16:37 |
| th1a | OK. | 16:37 |
| th1a | Thanks replaceafill. | 16:37 |
| replaceafill | thanks th1a | 16:37 |
