<pre wrap="">Hi Richard:
To get Z3950 searching to working in Koha 2.2.7 you need to:
1. install YAZ Toolkit - V2.1.40 available from <a
href="http://www.indexdata.dk/yaz/">http://www.indexdata.dk/yaz/</a>
2. add the Yaz bin folder to your environment path. For me, the path to the bin folder is C:\Program Files\YAZ\bin
(Right click My Computer -> Properties -> Advanced Tab -> Environment Variables -> in the lower System Variables window click on Path and then the edit button. Cursor all the way to the end of the existing path, add a semicolon and the the path to the Yaz bin folder. On my machine, when I get done it looks like
SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;<b>C:\Program Files\YAZ\bin</b>
Be careful not to delete anything that is already there! You may have a lot of other entries on your path depending on what software is installed on your computer. Click Ok -> Ok -> Ok to save your changes.
3. Reboot your computer. For some reason, the change to your path doesn't take effect until you reboot.
4. add a couple Z3950 servers in the intranet section of Koha. You do this under Koha Administration -> Z39.50 Servers. If you don't have any Z3950 servers configured, you will get a server error 500. I just copied the settings for a couple servers from the intranet demo site at <a
class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://koha.liblime.com/">http://koha.liblime.com/</a> and they worked.
Let me know if you need any more help.
Rob
