Re: [Koha] Can't add items on Koha 3.18.03 built from .tar
Hi, The difference between installing from packages and from tar is basically that the process of installing from package checks for dependencies, it puts things in specific directories, and runs any after-the-fact scripts to make changes to things. But packages only work on systems that are the cookie-cutter systems. When you install via tarball, you personally are responsible for everything. If you make a typo, or if the system you are installing onto is not capable of running it, you are the one who needs to figure it out. It is possible to unpack the tarball onto something that has all the wrong versions of perl, that does not have zebra installed, or something like that. At the same time, you may get a newer version of the software if you are installing from git or the tarball. Packages are not always kept up-to-date. - Tim Young On 2/14/2015 9:49 AM, Bob Ewart wrote: When I try to add an item on Koha 3.18.03 built from the .tar file, I get a Can't call fields on undefined value at ... additem.pl line 683.

Koha's Perl scripts and libraries are exactly the same. The only difference could be environmental: Perl version, dependencies versions. Have you ran ./koha_perl_deps.pl -m -y -c ? What distro/release are yo using?
