<BR>
<BR>hi again,
<BR>
<BR>when i was install the koha a new machine first time i saw lots of
<BR>features doesn't work. some directories and files absent or wrong
<BR>places. I've carried them out correct places. Then koha started to
<BR>work. But i could not enter items to database still, when i was
<BR>searching the problem i saw some tables at koha database must
<BR>be filled before the work, for example: branches, categories,
<BR>aqbookfund, categoryitem, itemtypes, stopwords, users. I fill some
<BR>of them by using SQL statements and koha started to work most
<BR>efficiently. is there any automated way to enter them or any
<BR>manual how to fill them? I thin some information must be written
<BR>anywhere at koha's installation file.
<BR>
<BR>KOHA is fine. see you and best of all.
<BR>
<BR>> hi all,
<BR>>
<BR>> I'm entering some demo items to the koha comparing with koha's
<BR>> demo page, but some fields are blank for example format, branch,
<BR>> bookfund. I saw this fields are pre completed at koha's demo. is
<BR>> there any field at mysql or will i edit the html files?
<BR>>
<BR>> And another big problem is I could not edit "Itemtype | Class
<BR>> Location | Date | Due | Last | Seen | Barcode" aereas yet. I wonder
<BR>> is it because of I do not enter any barcode number to the records
<BR>> yet? But when I want to enter any (not standard) number at
<BR>> barcode section in acqui, koha doesn't record them.
<BR>>
<BR>> thanks for helps again.
<BR>>
<BR>> best regards
<BR>>
