Re: [Koha] Cataloging book data entry not save for koha 20.05

[Eric Bégin]

Hi,

Actually, I don't this that it's API related.

We faced this problem when restarting ElasticSearch on our side.

The permission of the log files are getting wrong.

Check the permissions of your files in /var/log/koha/mamcet/

Just to let you know, you probably have errors when saving a syspref too.

Hope that helps,

Eric

Re: [Koha] Frameworks and Their Purpose

[Eric Bégin]

Hi Charles,

As far as I know, there is no way to change the records framework in 
batch editing.


If I had to do it, I would update the data directly in the database.

The framework is defined as the 'frameworkcode' column of the 'biblio' 
table.


Hope that helps !

I have been looking for an answer to the following question, but I've

 In an exchange on 6 Jul 2020 at 09:08, Caroline Cyr-La-Rose responded
among other things:

Frameworks are cataloguing "forms". You can use many different ones or just

the default one.


[etc., etc., etc.]

 In an exchange on 6 Jul 2020 at 10:12, John Sterbenz responded among
other things:

Frameworks give me the ability to do something I wished my previous catalog

could do but didn't--customized OPAC and staff-side field labels (all the
way down to the subfield level, which is a really nice bonus).  While the
"provided" ones focus on format, you have the ability to create brand new
ones, so if you have several collection of "regular old books" that you
would want to which you want to assign and create new frameworks, you can
do so easily.


[etc., etc., etc.]

 Thank you both. I understand now.

 I do have a follow-up question: Is it possible in Koha to change a
framework of a group records en masse? For example, if I have a group of
747 maps (949 $c = "MAP") but their framework is BKS, can I change the
framework to MAP through Koha in one fell swoop (and if so, how so); or
must I painstakingly change them one at a time?

 I have tried exporting them into MarcEdit and importing them anew into
Koha while selecting "Import this batch into the catalog" with "Add new
bibliographic records into this framework:" (select from the dropdown
menu), but the framework for each record remains as it was before the
exporting and importing.

 Many thanks.

Re: [Koha] Taking patron images out of db into a directory

[Eric Bégin]

Mengu,

We did something similar for one clients.  It's patrons pictures were on an 
external server using the borrowernumber as filename (they have  a unified id 
for all of their services)

So their is definitively use cases for such a feature.

In our case, we just "hacked" the picture URL with their server URL.

I think we should have a syspref for the patron pictures base URL, and maybe 
the key to use as filename (cardnumber, borrowernumber or even an patron 
attribute)

Hope that help !

Re: [Koha] Checkout without barcode

[Eric Bégin]

Robert,

Enabling the  system preference allows you to 
search for a document if the text you entered in the barcode field is 
not found.


So you can consider the barcode field as a search box.

Is there a simple way to checkout books without a barcode?

I'm currently in the process of inventorying and barcoding all our 
materials, but in the meantime, it would be super useful to be able to 
checkout materials by looking them up by name/author/etc. So far I 
have not been able to find a way to do this.  There's no check out to 
patron option after searching the catalog, and the checkout process 
only allows for barcodes as the entry method.


Currently I have the catalog search open in one tab and the checkout 
in the other and copy and paste from one to the other to check items out.


Hoping someone can offer me a better solution.

Thanks,

Re: [Koha] Screenshots internationalization for the manual (and acceptance tests?)

[Eric Bégin]

ecause of bug 20043
- I have already found several bugs (not reported yet) writing these tests.
- The screenshots I generated are from the installer (all of them) and the
administration part (~50%)
- Currently I cannot regenerate only 1 screenshot (if something went wrong
for instance). They should be independent (unless for the installer part)
and the script should take an image name in parameter (like perl
generate_screenshot.pl --name FineNotifyAtCheckin --lang es).
- Could be done later:
* Generate screenshots for "fr" with UNIMARC data
* Use sample data from the language we want
* Have separate data set depending on the language (like having the biblio
titles or patron names depending on the region: John Doe for 'en', Jean
Dupont for 'fr', Juan Pérez for 'es', etc.)
* And certainly much more...
The links to what have been done so far: (manual with only the installer
and administration sections, these links are temporary)

Re: [Koha] Restrict access

Hello !
Based on what you exposed us, you'll have to manage the access to your

And even if this was possible, this wouln't prevent someone to access 
your files if they know the URL of your file.<

like be able to choose where news is displayed in OPAC. I have looked

Is this something that needs to be managed by modifying HTML/CSS? Any

There are multiple possible problems :

1. The data itself
2. Database configuration
3. Apache configuration

Re: [Koha] Facets

[Eric Bégin]

Tom,

I don't know why exactly you do not have facets when use_zebra_facets is 
1, it should.


When use_zebra_facets is set to 0, Koha uses the X first results to 
compute facets, where X is set in the maxRecordsForFacets system 
preferences.

I'm not sure I understand how facets work.

I'm testing V3.22 (both .04 and .06) and have found that running with the
default of using facets from zebra:

  1

Does not present the facets on searches. However, if I change that to 0,
which I assume then does not use Zebra facets but instead gets the facets
from somewhere else, then the facets appear.

Questions:
- With this set to 0, where do the facets come from?
- Why might the default of setting facets from Zebra not work? Did I miss
something on my Zebra compilation or indexing?

My first thought is just to leave this set to 0 since that works and 1 does
not. But I do want to understand the tradeoffs and why it is working as it
is.

Try on port 2100.

If you really want to use port 210, you'll have to use iptables to forward it.

I've configured the server directive and server info blocks which I've

https://gist.github.com/minorscience/d92d40f077b830c5985eed116d81b2f4

Not sure what else need to done besides bouncing the Zebra server.

Any attempt to connect on the local network or outside network returns:

Connecting...error = System (lower-layer) error

Zebra is running and the assigned port is open.

Any ideas? I'm a little familiar with yaz but haven't used it much in a
Koha context.

Thanks in advance.

Re: [Koha] SIPServer abaility

[Eric Bégin]

Joseph,

Actually, Koha doesn't use a SIP server, it is a SIP server.

External clients can make request to the server in order to perform some 
tasks such as marking a book as borrowed, displaying a list of borrowed 
items, and so on.


The primary use of the SIP protocol is for self checkout kiosque which 
allows patrons to check out book without having to go the the 
circulation counter.


Hope that clarifies a bit how SIP is used :)

The SELECT assume that you are using MARC21.

In addition, you could also get invalid ISBN using the subfield z

The final query would be :

SELECT ExtractValue(marcxml,

biblioitems where ISBN <>""


Note that some lines may content more than 1 ISBN.

Re: [Koha] New to Koha, but very interested

Hi Joseph,

Sorry for the little questions.  I know software, but librairies, I am 
still learning. 

Been there, done that !

Welcome aboard !

How are searches done for looking in an external library? 

It actually depends on what you mean by looking for external library.

Koha doesn't /easily /support the search of external library out of the 
box by the library's patrons through the OPAC (library's catalog).


However, librarians can set up Z39.50 targets in order to search 
external libraries and import their records which speed up the 
cataloguing process.

Is there a way for the librarian to have access to multiple

3. Yes, you can. You need the look at some coonfiguration

Hello,

My name is Joe.

I am writing because we are in discussions with a possible
college campus looking to update the searching ability on
the campus.

We found Koha and the features seem full and rich.

We have more technical questions about installing a new
library and sharing server with multiple libraries.

I will ask a couple of questions, and then follow up,
depending on the replies I get.

1 - The campus has more then one library on campus: 1 for
physical sciences  1 for medecine  1 for social sciences
How can this be treated?  Can one installation cover for a
campus allow for the location data to include which
building/library, or even on which campus it might be 
located?


2 - Can we run multiple instances of Koha on the same
server?  I ask because any other the documentation that I
have read always mentioned 1 server, 1 koha.   If this
works well for us, there are a couple of other libraries
interested in working with us. We want to under stand the
resources needed.  1 koha per server, or many per server?

3 - Can Koha be installed to run from a particular
folder?  We already have our server up and running, and if
they can just be installed in a directory of a web page
installation?

This is just my beginning.  We are trying to understand
the software in order to know what is possible or now.

Thanks!

You are both awesome! Thank you for your inputs I was able to add it.

Using the JavaScript that Eric suggested I can now add image and text on the
right-hand corner of the *Log in to your account*. I am still figuring it
out on how put it on the left side corner.

This is the script that I used.

$("#members > ul").html( $("#members > ul").html() + ' Site Map

$("#members > ul").html( $("#members > ul").html() + '' )

Re: [Koha] OPAC Header Design

[Eric Bégin]

Jerwyn,

We did something similar.

If you look at this opac : http://chelsea.inlibro.net/

You'll see a Français in the top left corner.

We add this option using the following javascript in the opacuserjs 
system preference :


$("#members > ul").html( $("#members > ul").html() + 'class="divider-vertical">href="/cgi-bin/koha/opac-changelanguage.pl?language=fr-CA">Français' 
);

Hi Jack,

It's hard to say why, but your backup should be larger than a fee bytes.

How did you export it?  Do you still have access to your old server?

Hi Tomas,

Really? This is great! The whole reason behind my question was to see if I 
could set-up my instance closer to an instant indexing set-up than in previous 
versions (which I believe was in 5 minute or so intervals - not terribly 
efficient when cataloguing). 5 seconds or fewer is outstanding. I will most 
certainly try out your instructions to enable. This ILS keeps getting better; 
learning a lot from all of you. Thank you.

Best to all,

Craig, since 3.18 we have an awesome indexing daemon integrated to the 
packages, that should be used by everyone, instead of the cronjob. Might be 
worth enabling by default in 3.22.

Using the indexer daemon is WAY BETTER. It seeks for updates every 5 seconds 
(can be lower/higher, it is user-configurable), so you get almost instant 
indexing (instant for the end user). Also, a lot less records get queued, so 
indexing time is shorter and there aren't many indexing processes running at 
the same time.

To enable it you need to
- Comment the rebuild_zebra.pl line in /etc/cron.d/koha-common
- Enable the indexer daemon in /etc/default/koha-common
- Restart Koha's daemons:
  $ sudo service koha-common stop ; sudo service koha-common start

And yes, do it!

Peter,

You can also try to import your .mrk file using the bulkmarcimport.pl script 
since it's more verbose than the import from the UI.

Hello Hello,

I am working on migrating a small church and school library from a library

the books into the Koha system in a way that would allow books to be
checked in and out by using the barcodes.

To migrate the library from Resource Mate to Koha:

I used Resource Mate's .CSV export tool in order to get a list of the
patrons and book records.  Next I used the handy "MarcEdit by Terry Reese"
tool to convert the .CSV format of the records into a.MRK file for
importing.  Using the MarcEdit tool I mapped the barcodes for the books on
the .CSV file to the MARC 952$p field in order to get the barcodes into a
database within the Koha system.  I was then able to import all of the
patrons and records into the Koha system and verify a checkout process.

At this point, I can successfully check books in and out but I am not able
to use the barcodes of the books to assist in the checkout process.  I
believe this is related to the Koha to Marc mappings, as it appears the
952$p field is not being mapped to the Koha items table.

I was able to find a document in the Koha wiki which explains the "As of
*3.4.x*, holdings data is no longer stored in a 952 field and that
information is introduced in the *items* table only"
http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Holdings_data_fields_%289xx%29

I am hoping for any suggestions on how to approach loading the book records
barcodes into the correct field so that Koha will reference the data during
check out.

Re: [Koha] Is it possible to use a thesaurus in RDF withing KOHA?

Caterina,

You are correct, Koha (which is not an acronym, so don't need to capital the 
whole word) can not import RDF thesaurus yet.

However, a script (or even an XSL file) could be written to convert AGROVOC in 
MARC21 which then could be import in Koha.

Hi Everyone,

I'm attempting to learn how to modify XSLT files in order to change the look of 
the OPAC detail and OPAC result pages. I'm finding this an extraordinarily 
difficult task. CSS and HTML are much more intuitive to me than XSLT. I might 
be out of my league on this one.

What I would like to start out doing is transforming the Uniform Titles element 
on the OPAC details page into hyperlinks, so that users can search on UTs from 
the details page.

I've located MARC21slim2OPACResults.xsl and am trying to learn how to add the 
href attribute, but am lost.

Has someone attempted to do this before? If so, and provided my request is not 
too labor-intensive, would someone on the list be willing to help me out on 
this? If I perhaps see the correct way of going about this from you, I might be 
able to more confidently edit other areas of the XSLT pages. Right now I am 
quite unsure.

Happy to be referred to XSLT learning guides that others use too!

Koha Gruppo Italiano https://www.facebook.com/KohaGruppoItaliano has received a 
major award by EBSCO Publishing to integrate the ElasticSearch tool into Koha.

The press release link is 
http://www.librarytechnology.org/ltg-displaytext.pl?RC=20347

Last year, the Koha Gruppo Italiano launched the idea of substituting Zebra 
with Solr or ElasticSearch at the Hackfest in Marseille. 

We discussed about the best way to replace Zebra, and if and how to fund this 
enhancement through companies interested in a diffusion of open source software 
in libraries.

During the upcoming Hackest in Marseille there will be a presentation of this 
grant. Further we hope to obtain an additional grant for a new project. We will 
also discuss how to manage the development and payment of the implementation of 
ElasticSearch in Koha.

Koha Gruppo Italiano was founded in 2012 by Franziska Wallner (www.aur.edu), 
Stefano Bargioni and Juan Diego Ramírez (www.pusc.it/bib) and Sebastian Hierl

Your OPAC doesn't seem to have a robots.txt file.

In that case, webcraler can do multiple requests per seconds, which can 
be hard on your site performance.


Here the robots.txt we are using :

100% on Koha instance (Amazon AWS is hosting our Koha) for last few days.
Whereas days prior, it would be at under 20%, with spike at rare occasions.
No other application being hosted with Koha!

Looking back, our use of Koha hasn't change, except adding a few OPAC User
JavaScripts (opacuserjs) to customise the look and feel of our OPAC.

Is the high CPU utilization is caused by adding a few JavaScripts?  Or
something else altogether??

Hoping someone can help solve this issue.

Accessing to koha staff client as superlibrarian is impossible to delete 
a patron. I mean, the delete item is enabled but it doesn't give any 
result. On the other side accessing to koha as a staff member who has 
all the permission to manage patrons, is possible to delete patrons: the 
delete is enabled and it makes its work.
I did many tests changing the permission of the staff members accounts, 
and things work as I described.
Perdon me if also someone else reported this before...

I think that web crawler (Google, MS, and other) are querying your Koha.

The following robots.txt file will prevent them to search your catalogue.

Phillip,

I want to point out that this could also be a restriction of your mail

Otherwise, Koha uses sendmail to send email. The MTA (mail transfer

Re: [Koha] Importing Koha Database to a new install

[Eric Bégin]

Philipp,

From what I see, you are doing the right thing.

You shouldn't have to do any modification on your database, Koha should 
take care of it when you access your staff interface when detecting a 
mismatch between the version in the code and the one in your database.


Your database information (database, login and passwd) are located in 
your etc/koha-conf.xml file (its location depends on your install 
directory).


Make sure this information is what you expect it to be.

Hope that helps,

Subject: Re: [Koha] Importing Koha Database to a new install

I think I've figured out what's up.  I managed to determine that the Koha database is 
from Koha version 3.00.00.107 and the version that I've installed by default is 
3.14.00.000.  This means that the database is extremely out of date and can not be 
imported without transforming some of the data.

When the data has been imported by me, Koha doesn't recognize it.  I can't 
login as staff and when I log in as koha_library, koha has me setup the 
database just like I'm just finishing the install and overwrites the database.

I've also figured out that the the No Library Set always appears when logged in 
as koha_library even if there is a valid database.

Thanks,

Phillip

I know that there are procedures to upgrade databases from one version to the 
next.

If anyone has monkey.txt (meaning step by step procedures) to upgrade this 
database, I would sincerely appreciate it and so would my library since we are down hard.

Subject: [Koha] Importing Koha Database to a new install

Does anyone have some monkey text instructructions on how to dump the old 
koha database from the old server and import it into the new one.  From instructions and 
other readings on the web, I have tried to export the database and import it without 
acceptable results.

When I log into Staff Koha, I still have to login with the username and 
password that comes with the installation.  Also when I do log in, I see as a 
choice of libraries - My Library and several other libraries so I am assuming 
there's an issue with the import or maybe something else.

I did the following using the instructions below:

1. Using mysqldump, dumped the old koha database which is named Koha.
2.  Copied the dump to the new server.
3.  Deleted the new koha_library database on the new server.
4.  Created a new koha_library database.
5.  Using mysql imported the koha_library database from the dump .

I also do not have a Library Set so something is not right on the import.

Thanks to everyone who's helped me so far.  I'm making progress.

Phillip



Instructions:

Koha Database Restoration process.


Open a terminal and apply following commands.

  


Remove existing database in new installation

  


sudo su

mysql -uroot -p

[Enter the MySQL Root password]

  


drop database koha_library;

create database koha_library;

quit;

  


Copy your database backup from your pen drive to home folder.

Objet : [Koha] Importing books from a csv file, including bar codes 
 
I'm trying to import books into Koha.  We have a few thousand books with bar
code stickers stuck onto them and we don't want to change them.  If I got a
csv file with the authors, titles, and bar codes, how can I import this?

I looked around at how to set the bar code of a book in Koha, but I couldn't
find it.  It doesn't look like it is a part of MARC.  And since it is not a
part of MARC, I can't really just import a MARC file, can I?

Help!

Re: [Koha] MARC tag number

[Eric Bégin]

Sandeep,

I wouldn't map your author 2 in a 600$a field. 6XX are subjects fields, 
not authors. If your book is about Einstein, you would put Einstein in 
the 600.


100$a is the main author
Other authors can be put in 700$a fields, which is a repeatable field.

Hope that helps.

Re: [Koha] subject heading authority control (MARC21)

[Eric Bégin]

Hi Janusz,

I would suggest to do it the other way around.

Let's the user specify if he wants to search, for example, an authority 
as author or as a subject.


You will problably have to change few things in the indexation and in 
the authority search page, but you keep the advantage of having a single 
authority record, which prevent having to update 2 records, which is 
what an authority records should be used for, right :)

Dear Colleagues,

This is a question about the use of authority records for controlling
subject heading fields (6xx) in MARC21.

In a standard Koha MARC21 installation the same set of authorities
(PERSO_NAME, CORPO_NAME, MEET_NAME, UNIF_TITLE) is set up to control both
the form headings (1xx/7xx/8xx) and subject headings (6xx).  With this
configuration the user, when searching by authorities (Browse by author or
subject in OPAC or the librarian using Authorities), is unable to
distinguish: is the heading used as a form heading or subject heading, e.g.
when searching, by authorities,  for Shakespeare, William the user would
get both: records in which Shakespeare is used as responsibility and the
records about Shakespeare (with Shakespeare in 600).

For me and my libraries this is not satisfactory.  Is anybody facing the
same issue?

So, a possible solution is to create a parallel set of authority types (like
S_PER_NAME, S_COR_NAME, etc.), which nearly duplicates the number of
authority types.  This solution, however, has a number of drawbacks: 1) at
least AuthoritiesMarc ::GuessAuthTypeCode function has to be modified,  2)
drop-down lists with authority types in authority searches become
unreasonably long (users suggest there should be only By author, By
subject, no matter if it is a person, a corporate body or a meeting or
whatsoever, and By title).

This is how I am planning to resolve this, but maybe there is a better idea?
Or any comments that would shed some light on this issue?

Thank you very much!

Re: [Koha] Search not working after upgrade

Hi Ryan,

Can you take a look in your database to check what are the homebranch 
and holdingbranch of a bibliographic record located at Bluefield High 
School ?

notice it sets the branch based on number.

however koha translates that to the name of the school and spits out this:
No results match your search for 'kw,wrdl: math' with limit(s):
'branch:Bluefield High School' in PEI School Library System Catalog.

I should also note that this is a clean install of 3.8 with my db migrated
into it.
Should I need to make changes to the koha code files just to make the search
work?

Is it possible this is just a db setting that needs to be updated, or
perhaps something in the systempreferences that carried over from my 3.0 db
that is not needed for koha 3.8. I figured this stuff would have been taken
care of with the update scripts that ran against my db during the install.

Re: [Koha] Search not working after upgrade

[Eric Bégin]

Bonjour Monsieur Blanchard,

The problem seems to be related to the branch limit.  From what I saw, 
the branch id for Bluefield High School is 314, so the search should 
indicate something like :


kw,wrdl: math' with limit(s):'branch:314'

I would check why the branch in the request is Bluefield High School and 
not 314. This is problably related to the combobox from which the user 
pick its branch.

My koha search no longer works after upgrading from 3.00.01.005 to
3.08.01.002. First I'll explain the details of my upgrade from July 6, 2012:

*PART1: details of my upgrade*

1) On a new server I created a new Debian 6 Squeeze installation on VMware.
2) I installed Koha using apt-get
3) I uploaded the database export from my 3.0 prod system to the new Debian
installation
4) I edited '/etc/koha/koha-sites.conf' to attach my new db before the
install: DEFAULTSQL=/home/kohabox/koha_db_dump.201206271900.sql.gz
5) ran koha-create --create-db kohapei. This created my db and ran the
update db scripts over many hours
6) ran /usr/sbin/koha-upgrade-to-3.4. Again this took many hours.
7) At this point I can access the site and login.

*PART2: Now onto the search problems*

===
/SEARCH 1/
Choose Advanced search
Keyword = Math
Individual libraries: All Libraries

RESULTS: 3446 result(s) found for 'kw,wrdl: math' in PEI School Library
System Catalog.

NOTE: on the results screen I can see many items are available in many
different schools. Eg. One school that has many math books is Bluefield High
School.

/SEARCH 2/
Choose Advanced search
Keyword = Math
Individual libraries: Bluefield High School

RESULTS: No results match your search for 'kw,wrdl: math' with limit(s):
'branch:Bluefield High School' in PEI School Library System Catalog

NOTE: as I explained after 'search 1' there are may available math books at
Bluefield High School. However koha cant find any.

/SEARCH 3/
Choose Advanced search
Keyword = {any word}
Individual libraries: {any choice other than All Libraries}

RESULTS: No results match your search


As you can see from the results I cannot search a specific branch. Any
attempt gives no results.
NOTE: just to clarify the search worked fine for my 3.00.01.005 installation

*PART3: observations*
-zebraqueue table: before upgrade this table was empty. at some point during
the running of script koha-upgrade-to-3.4 it populated this table with
+385000 records. I'm not exactly sure how this works but since koha doesn't
search based on the database why would it need to populate so much into this
table. should this table be truncated at some point? (the koha wiki site
recommends not backing this table up so I assume the contents are not
critical)...is it just used to flag changes to biblios to make reindexing
zebra faster?

-no errors noticed in:
intranet-error.log  intranet-error.log.1  opac-error.log  zebra-error.log
zebra-output.log


Final Note: One week before all this work I also completed the same steps as
above for another installation on a server running Debian 6 directly...no
VMware. I got ran into the same problem with the search.

I'm pretty much out of ideas of what to do at this point. It seems like a
did a standard upgrade for koha, but I'm not sure why I see all these search
problems. If you have any Ideas of what I could try please let me know. I
can provide any info you may need to see.
Thanks,
Ryan

It seems that some of PERL packages required by Koha were not installed,

The default values for the 008 control field are hardcoded in the plugin.

To change them, you can edit the following file :

You have to change the value at 2 places.

Eugene,

Make sure you are reindexing using the koha user, not root.

The output of your rebuild_zebra command should give you additional info 
if you add the verbose flag (-v).


Hope that helps,

Re: [Koha] bulkmarcimport-problems!

[Eric Bégin]

Magdalena,

The log indicates some problems with the foreign key constraints.

Since you are deleting your existing records before importing the new 
one (-d options), you must also specify the -fk (disabling foreign key 
check).


So running the following command should work :

./bulkmarcimport.pl -d -fk -match=barcode,999c -commit 1000 -v -file 
/tmp/newer40_77000.mrc

Hope that helps,

Hi again!

Just an update for future reference regarding our problems with bulkmarc 
import. MJ Ray kindly suggested us to try the following:

I now think the parameter to -match needs an index name in front of
it, with a comma. It then tries to match the tag against it. So
http://manual.koha-community.org/3.6/en/kohasearchindexes.html makes
me think you actually want -match barcode,999c

Sadly, it did not make any difference, same long error message. See beginning 
of the message below. (Testdatabase version still 3.6.2 on Debian squeeze). 
Possible bug??

Well, -d deletes the old biblios before importing the file, but the

I got similar errors when trying to use -match earlier today. I

an insight into this? I think I'll next get chance to investigate it
next Wednesday, which is quite a wait.

Re: [Koha] Install for Dummies

Bruce,
All three commands fail with a variety of messages, but all include 
file not found. 

Indeed, that doesn't look good.

Can you provide the full output of the rebuild_zebra -b -r -v

(make sure to run this command from your koha_install_dir/bin directory)

This page seems to suggest:

rebuild_zebra.pl -b -r -v

All three commands fail with a variety of messages, but all include file

I'm thinking that there is an important configuration or initialization

Re: [Koha] is there a way to mass-add books?

[Eric Bégin]

Hi Huck,

You can add your books without those fields, however, when you will want 
to update them, Koha will ask you to ask them (unless you change your 
MARC framework.


I would suggest though to use MarcEdit to add those fields (040 and 942, 
not 924) in your records.

The staff client comes up fine, and using the beginners tutorials I've

I have used the cataloging function to enter half a dozen

However, the public OPAC shows no books in the collection.

Is there some step that is not covered by the tutorials that must be

Re: [Koha] Serials Planning Help

[Eric Bégin]

Nicole,

I would use a X, Y, Z numbering pattern (Volume, number, Issue. Starting 
Volume at 42, starting Number at 7 and Issue at 8.

Numbering formula is Volume {X} #{Y}/{Z}

The trick is that you will have to use the Advanced Pattern since Y and 
Z must increment by 2 every time you receive an issue


Values for X
Add : 1
once every: 6
other values should be ok

Values for Y
Add : 2
oncer every : 1
When more than 12
Set back to 1

Values for Z
Add : 2
oncer every : 1
When more than 12
Set back to: 2

I didn't try it but I'm pretty confident that it should work.

Hope that helps,

Thanks in advance for any tips you can provide.

Re: [Koha] Slow system

Hi Marie,

Chris already respond to your question, however, I would like to suggest 
that you could use a specific shelving location for those books instead 
of checking them out to a patron.


Is there a specific reason why your library checks out to a patron 
instead of using a designated shelving location ?

Re: [Koha] setting start value for autobarcode

The easiest way would be to set the first barcode manually for an item

Re: [Koha] Brainstorm Help - Improve Reporting

[Eric Bégin]

Nicole,

You can put your authorized value category code as your runtime 
parameters in order to get their list of values when executing your report.


A simple example : SELECT * FROM borrowers WHERE sort1 = *Select 
borrower sort 1 value*|*Bsort1*


*In green*, the message you want to display to the user at runtime.
*In blue*, the authorized value category code.

Other than the category codes, you can have le list of branches 
(branches), the patron category (categorycode), type of documents 
(itemtype).

one page with the values you'll need to query often.

Another option is to update the runtime parameters function to allow

Sorry for my jumbled thoughts, but that's what brainstorming is about :)
