[Koha] Koha API issue
Hi everyone, We are trying to access Koha data using Koha API from a different system. We are using the Angular JS V2 library to access Koha API. While accessing the API, we encountered a CORS error stating "Access to XMLHttpRequest at " http://opac.tucl.edu.np:81/api; from origin "http://localhost:4200; has been blocked by CORS policy. The detail of the error is provided in the screenshot below. We have also tried to set the value for the AccessControlAllowOrigin system preference with the value "http://localhost:4200;. As it didn't resolve the issue, we also set the preference value as an asterisk '*'. However, we still encountered the same error. [image: error_2022-08-06_17-38-43-985.jpg] If anyone had already resolved this kind of issue earlier, please share your experience. We would highly appreciate it. Thank you. -- Regards, Dibyendra Hyoju ___ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz Unsubscribe: https://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha
Re: [Koha] Searching problem
Hi Eric,
Thank you for your reply. I am not sure how the zebra indexing works. I
also thought that the colon was not treated literally. There are several
other instances having colon marks and they are searchable using the full
title. I have tried both general search and advanced search but I still
couldn't search some of the titles having colon punctuation marks. For
example, the list below has one or more colons after searching for ":" mark
<http://107.170.225.98:8080/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/search.pl?idx=kw=%3A=19880_by=relevance_dsc>
but still searchable using the full title.:
1. http://107.170.225.98/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=20343
2.
http://107.170.225.98:8080/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl?biblionumber=20347
3. http://107.170.225.98/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=20264
I tried changing the search preferences for the values of QueryFuzzy and
QueryStemming but that didn't make a difference in search results for the
titles having colon punctuation marks. I'd appreciate it if I could get a
solution to this issue.
Thank you.

[Koha] Searching problem
Hello All, I am having trouble searching some of the records in the database having a colon ":" punctuation mark in the titles such as "Marx at the Margins: On Nationalism, Ethnicity, and Non-Western Societies", "Bhutan: new pathways to growth", "Dayananda Sarasvati: his life and ideas", etc. However, I could search these records without typing a colon punctuation mark during the search just like "Bhutan new pathways to growth", "Dayananda Sarasvati his life and ideas". The complete title is in the 245a tag field without using remainder of the title. What could be the problem? I have rebuilt the index by issuing koha-rebuild-zebra -f -v twice but some of the titles mentioned above are still not searchable using full title including colon punctuation mark.

Re: [Koha] 952$o subfield not displayed in OPAC
Hi Dave, We manually add 952 tag and necessary sub-fields in the MARC records and copy the call number from the relevant tags of MARC into 952$o field. 952 tag contains holdings information and OPAC displays the holdings information from 952 tags, not from the MARC tags. So, add 5144 952 tags into your MARC records and copy the call number from 050 to 952$o field using MarcEdit. I hope this helps!

Probably you have an 020 tag without data or same other problem.
To understand better the situation you can try:
-- find a search on opac that gives the error
-- insert the swith -d in the opac-search.pl
-- start opac-search.pl on command line and use
perl debugger to find the exact problem

Re: [Koha] Problem in search
Hi again, Earlier, actually I used the database of Koha 3.16.01 and used it with Koha 3.14. I thought I used the database of version 3.14, but still the database worked okay. There is no searching problem while plugging the database of version 3.16 with Koha 3.14. But when I connect the database of 3.16 with Koha 3.16.x, the error appears again. Can I use database of Koha 3.16 with Koha 3.14? I also have to test it thoroughly to see the result. I'd appreciate if anyone of you can share your experience on fixing this issue. Thanks.

Re: [Koha] Problem in search
Hi Colin, Thanks for your response. I upgraded the Koha already to version 3.16.4, but the problem is still there. So, I tested the earlier database backups of koha 3.14 in a different machine having Koha 3.14 and there is no such problem with searching. So, from the test, I can say that either the database is not upgraded properly to 3.16 while upgrading the Koha, or the problem could be specific to Koha 3.16.

My suggestion (and I've done this a few times) is to install Koha from the packages (already done), take a database dump of the old one using mysqldump, create an instance in the new install (koha-create), and then load the data into the new instance. This last part can be done with: sudo koha-mysql instancename dumpfile.sql Then you can run: sudo koha-upgrade-schema instancename wait a while (if you have a lot of data and history), and you'll have an up-to-date installation. -- Robin Sheat Catalyst IT Ltd. ✆ +64 4 803 2204 GPG: 5FA7 4B49 1E4D CAA4 4C38 8505 77F5 B724 F871 3BDF ___ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha -- Dibyendra Hyoju ___ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha
