I'm a first time Koha user working through the instructions found here to get Koha 3.06.04 running on Cent OS 6.2:
http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_3.6_on_Centos_6.2_i386 I'm using CentOS because this needs to run under Hyper-V. I don't have a whole lot of linux experience. In spite of that, I've made it through the instructions and have things *almost* running. Almost. What happens is that when I try to visit the administration page (the final line in the instructions) I get stuck in an http redirect loop. Koha's normal/opac side of course shows that the site is in maintenance mode, as I would expect prior to installation. I had to troubleshoot a number of other issues to get that far, but I updated the instruction wiki as I went, so someone else following that guide should end up in about the same place I did. Searching around the web (including but not limited to this list), the closest thing I could find is this post: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/web-installer-fix-amp-new-feature-tt3065009.html#none Reading that, I looked for a <kohaversion> element in /etc/koha/koha-conf.xml. I couldn't find one, and I'm not sure where it should go or what the contents of the element should be. There was a section at the end that looked promising, but adding the element there with only the version number for the contents hasn't helped. The tail of my install log in /usr/share/koha/misc/ looks like this: INSTALL_BASE=/usr/share/koha INSTALL_ZEBRA=yes INSTALL_SRU=yes INSTALL_PAZPAR2=no AUTH_INDEX_MODE=dom RUN_DATABASE_TESTS=no PATH_TO_ZEBRA= USE_MEMCACHED=no MEMCACHED_SERVERS= MEMCACHED_NAMESPACE= The tail of my /var/log/koha/koha-error_log looks like this: [Mon Mar 12 16:56:02 2012] [error] [client 10.1.2.103] [Mon Mar 12 16:56:02 2012] 500.pl: DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Table 'koha.language_descriptions' doesn't exist at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Languages.pm line 352.
