<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">Dear Friends,</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">I need your help to clear my doubts on
fine calculation.
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">My Koha doesnt calculate fine.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">I configured the following options in
Koha for fine calculation, but fine not calculating.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">I set the finemode > Production</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">I also created fine rules.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">I executed following two commands after
installation steps</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">crontab -u root crontab.example<br>crontab
-u vimal crontab.example</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><font color="#888888">A</font>after
executing the command, entries in crontab.example automatically
transferred to system crontab file.
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">Following is the entry in crontab -e
for fines,</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"># FINES<br>5 1 * * *
$KOHA_CRON_PATH/fines.pl</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">Is this entry in crontab is right?</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">Location of fines.pl in my system is
/usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">Any other things i have to be add in
crontab to start fine calculation?</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0cm;"><br>
</p>
