More technically complex way: uncomment the disable segment in the shared opac apache config of your Koha instance.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <38cd9c2d-efaf-4365-1cc5-dade8242d927@kohasupport.com> Hi Victor, Can you clarify how your installation is setup? Do you have multiple Koha instances running on one server or one Koha instance with multiple branches? If it's the former, then you can comment out (put a # in front of every line) the OPAC VirtualHosts section in your config file and restart your Apache web server (or whatever webserver you're running). This will stop Apache from serving requests to your OPAC. When you are ready to enable your OPAC again, simply uncomment the VirtualHosts and restart your web server. Hope this helps!

Attendance has been very low for a while now and we mooted the idea of dropping it from our schedule and instead just having perhaps two meetings a year, one for Kohacon votes and a second for a broader annual general meeting should anyone want to raise any points in that formal setting. The next meeting is scheduled for 13th October 2021 at 1400 UTC where we will vote on the new reduced format. We're open to new idea's at any time and I'd be happy to try a video meeting or something if people would prefer. But at this point, we're not discussing much and I don't know if we're missing peoples views or people just don't have many or they have other ways of communicating with the community at large.

You don't even need to self-identify as a cataloger! Join us for our usual roundtable of questions, solutions and resource brainstorming, tips, tricks, suggestions, bug & development awareness, and the usual laughter, fun, and fellowship to discuss anything cataloging, authority, or metadata related in Koha. Actual catalogers do attend, as well as the cataloging curious and those who have had cataloging thrust upon them! And this month there's a bonus CatSIG at the Koha-US Conference that is also free to attend to for all on Thursday, September 23rd at 1:00pm/13:00 PT, 2:00pm/14:00 MT, 3:00pm/15:00 CT, 4:00pm/16:00 ET. Information on joining us on September 2 is on the Koha-US calendar: https://koha-us.org/calendar/ And info on joining on September 23rd will be on the Conference website (and why not register for the conference? it's free for remote attendees!) https://koha-us.org/conference2021/ As ever, feel free to send me any questions or topics for discussion ahead of time!

Do you have a line number from updatedatabase.pl? Or the version number where it explodes? At first glance I'd say it tried to run a very old version during the upgrade, which would mean you should restart memcached, apache2 then koha-common. And try again.

Message-ID: Hello everybody, Don't ignore this email! Last week a critical security bug was reported on our bug tracker. We fixed it and built debian packages for the four stable releases we currently support. The security flaw can cause a privilege escalation from OPAC users. It can be highly damaging, especially if your staff interface is accessible via login from everywhere without further security measures like IP restrictions in place. How to fix the problem? If you are using a debian-based system you should upgrade using the debian packages: % apt update % apt install koha-common If you are using an older version of Koha (<19.11) you should either upgrade to a newer version, or apply those two patches (they should apply on older versions as well): https://paste.debian.net/hidden/885fb5ec/ https://paste.debian.net/hidden/1184f523/ https://paste.debian.net/plainh/ae9f9f25 You can apply them using the following command: % wget "https://paste.debian.net/plainh/885fb5ec" -O 28929_1.patch % wget "https://paste.debian.net/plainh/1184f523" -O 28929_2.patch % wget "https://paste.debian.net/plainh/ae9f9f25" -O 28947.patch % patch -p1 -d /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/ < /kohadevbox/koha/28929_1.patch % patch -p1 -d /usr/share/koha/opac/cgi-bin/ < /kohadevbox/koha/28929_2.patch % patch -d /usr/share/koha/opac/cgi-bin/opac/ < /kohadevbox/koha/28947.patch The two bugs are 28929 and 28947.

When it occurs, the bulkmarcimport ceases, interrupting the load. I've found nothing else in any other logs on the Koha server that help explain the error. I'm not sure what Elasticsearch has to do with my bulkmarcimport, unless it is Elasticsearch trying to index records on-the-fly after they are loaded? Is there an easy way to prevent this error from happening? Perhaps I should stop the Elasticsearch process while doing a bulkmarcimport? My Elasticsearch servers are external to the Koha environment, and I don't see any obvious indexing processes running on my local machine, so I'm not sure how best to intervene to prevent the above issue. I'm currently working my way through loading 1.3 million records, and I've had several redo's already as a result of loads being interrupted partway through (running bulkmarcimport via a cronjob helped *a lot*, but now I've had two ES errors/interruptions in the last day, which has put me a day behind). I am currently working with batches of 200K records or less. Thanks for any tips you may have! In the meantime, I will modify my latest MARC file to try to remove records already loaded and then resubmit the job (in order to save additional hours spent reloading 98K records).

See https://youtu.be/plzFqqy1iPs. I'm working on part 2, where I set up the library, item types, OPAC home page, etc., which I hope to have ready in time for the koha-US conference, starting on September 21st. Free registration if you attend online! See https://koha-us.org/. As for koha-sites.conf, I'd recommend setting intraport to 8080 and opacport to 80. Then you can get to your staff interface as 123.123.123.123:8080 (assuming your IP address is 123.123.123.123) and the catalog as 123.123.123.123. You don't need an actual domain name for Koha, though it does make things easier. NOTE: Some of you might be rather alarmed at my barebones approach to setting up Koha. No, my directions don't produce something pretty looking. My intended audience is libraries that don't have a lot of money to hire someone to design and set up their ILS. You'll end up with something that works, but look like something designed in somebody's basement. And if you find any errors in my video, please tell me!

When selecting "set to patron" or "select manager" while entering a purchase suggestion from the staff console, a 500 error rather than a patron search box appears in the popup. This issue seems related to bug 26738 , where suggestion managers and patrons were unable to be saved, but I'm unable to get even that far. I'm not sure how to troubleshoot this—has anyone else run into this issue? Created bug report 28946 last week, but hasn't received any attention. Thanks!

I'm the ICT Manager in a small school in Phnom Penh that had a working Koha installation. One of our physical servers died and, rather than replace it to get back up to full redundancy, we decided to move our on-prem servers to an IaaS provider (Linode). In the process of restoring Koha onto the new server I discovered we were running Koha 20.05 on the old server and 21.05 on the new server. I then made the fateful mistake of proceeding with both changes at once (despite knowing better 😔). I upgraded the old server to 21.05 and then backed up and restored onto the new server (both Ubuntu 20.04 LTS). I also added TLS using Let's Encrypt at the same time. It all seemed to go smoothly but we're now experiencing slow performance when checking out and looking up patrons and we're getting gateway timeouts when we try to use Batch Check Out. Does anyone have any tips on how to troubleshoot this? So far I've: - checked specs (new server is a "dedicated" 4GB VM with specs equivalent to or better than the old server) - tried to find any configuration differences between the old server and the new server - looked through the wiki pages on performance and tuning to see if there's anything we'd done on the old server but not on the new In the process I discovered that the old server was running on MariaDB 10.3.31 whereas I installed MySQL 8.0.26 on the new server. Could that be the source of all our issues or is that a red herring? To rule out MariaDB as the issue I've tried backing up the new server and restoring it on to an even newer server with MariaDB installed but so far I've not been successful in getting Koha running on MariaDB, despite successfully running the restore (after adjusting the SQL dump to change from MySQL's `utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci` collation to MariaDB's `utf8mb4_general_ci `). Has anyone got any nuggets of wisdom? I fear our next best option might be to create a new (MariaDB) server from the original back ups and manually re-enter the past 4 days worth of borrowing and returns 😔 Regards, Matt From tadas.kaupa at gmail.com Fri Sep 10 20:45:50 2021 From: tadas.kaupa at gmail.com (Tadas G) Date: Fri, 10 Sep 2021 11:45:50 +0300 Subject: [Koha] Import in koha 21.05 all users from LDAP Message-ID: Hello, We have Koha 21.05 installed and configured to work with AD. Everything is fine, users can login to Koha using AD credentials, but in Patron list they appear only after successful authorisation. It is quite annoying, because if you want to assign book to the reader, he/she has to be in patron list. Is it possible to create Cron job to import users to patron list automatically from AD (it is enough to import only a few fields, all other fields can be updated after user login)?

I'm not an expert on the subject, maybe others can reply, but this is the classical behaviour of applications integrating with LDAP for authentication (and sometimes also authorization): after first login the application creates data in its database, in this example as "Patron". No idea if there's anything out there, but a high level approach would be: 1. Create a test account in LDAP (Active Directory in your case) 2. Dump Koha database (one insert per line is useful) mysqldump --extended-insert=FALSE my_koha_database -u root -psecret > koha.sql 3. Perform first login with user created at step 1. 4. Repeat step 2: mysqldump --extended-insert=FALSE my_koha_database -u root -psecret > koha.after.sql 5. See differences diff koha.sql koha_after.sql Now you are very close to build the SQL statements to add a new Patron once authenticated. Cheers.

My main task is cataloguing. We receive many books through book donations and bequests with the result that we have a large number of duplicates (circa 2500 books out of some 40000). We are setting up a framework to sell the duplicates for a token amount. To this end we have added a item.notforloan value "For Sale" which we use to generate a report of books for sale from which we create a virtual shelf that can be consulted by the patrons. I am trying to figure out how to add a "Price" column with items.price to the Holdings tab of the opac details page for folks viewing the "For Sale" virtual shelf in the "Normal View". The price is shown in the "Marc view". Any advice is gratefully accepted.

I am sorry, I don't have the time to take a closer look at the templates, but usually it will not be possible to display arbitrary MARC fields. You could try the column names from biblio and biblioitems, but it might not work, as it depends on what was made available to the template as variables.

As there can be many items per record and the call numbers can vary between the different branches and locations of a library system, the task of displaying this information in a useful and nice way is not an easy one.

What you could do is maybe get a list of patron information from your AD to use with the patron import tool. You could regularly import the new patrons manually or automated via the available command line tools. There are also REST API endpoints for patron data that might be useful.

We use LDAP and / or Google oAuth login for most of our systems to ensure that usernames and passwords are consistent across our systems. We use Moodle as our school's Virtual Learning Environment, and this system has the ability to create / synchronise users from LDAP into the system. I would love to be able to do this for our patrons in Koha too. We self-check out modules that use a Mifare card to log the user in; the card number is copied across from LDAP at user login to OPAC. This means that before a user can use the self-check units they have to have first logged into the OPAC. A user sync script with LDAP would remove this requirement...

To get your password run 'sudo koha-passwd library' in your commandline, where 'library' is again the name of your instance. For more steps on installing Koha on Ubuntu, check out this tutorial .

Following the second lot of instructions at https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Troubleshooting_memcached I can see that it has been handling requests. I also compared the old server (post upgrade to 21.05) with the new server and both have the same configuration in `/etc/memcached.conf`. According to the about page configuration is coming from koha-conf.xml but I'm not sure where to find that file (and it doesn't seem like Memcached is the culprit so I didn't bother installing mlocate to find it). The only mentions of Plack I can see are on the Perl Modules info page: - Plack::Middleware::ReverseProxy (0.14) - 0.16 - Plack::Middleware::LogWarn (0.001002) - 0.001002 I could not find any info in the Wiki about Plack other than the ~2017 Plack page and a brief mention on the Performance page . Is there anything I need to do to enable it? Both old and new server have a single warning on the System information tab: "System preference 'KohaAdminEmailAddress' does not contain a valid email address. Emails will not be sent." Comparing the Server Information page for the old server (which is super slow after the 21.05 upgrade but doesn't time out) with the new server (which is super slow AND times out), the only differences are: - Minor Koha version (old server is 21.05.02.003, new server is 21.05.03.001) - Slightly different kernel release and version (old is 5.4.0-84-generic, #94-Ubuntu; new is 5.4.0-81-generic, #91-Ubuntu) - Different MySQL versions (old is "mysql Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.3.31-MariaDB, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 5.2", new is "mysql Ver 8.0.26-0ubuntu0.20.04.2 for Linux on x86_64 ((Ubuntu))" Thanks so much for some additional places to look for issues! If something in there gives a clue or if anyone has any other suggestions for things to check I'm all ears!

Once your regular OS packages are up to date you can upgrade koha with 'apt-get install koha-common' to install the version pointed to by your koha.list file. I’m not sure what the latest supported version on Jessie is, but you likely should specify a specific version in your koha.list rather than using “current".

This would work w/ the Batch record modification tool if it had access to the 952 tag & subfields. Unfortunately, it doesn't, at least in 20.05. Perhaps a good enhancement for down the road? This type of operation is trivial using a tool such as MarcEdit, though. Exporting & re-importing is obviously less time-consuming w/ smaller catalogs.

This will help enormously. We will be upgrading on a test/demonstration/development machine before we do so to the production machine. I've been involved in upgrades and updates of too many other software packages to know not to do so on the production machine right off. Only after the staff are satisfied that the test machine functions properly is the production machine updated or upgraded. Thanks again! -- 気を付けて。 /ki wo tukete/ = Take care. -- Charles.

Message-ID: Hi, all! Is there a way to make an open ended due date? That is, if a person checks out a book, Koha does not assign a due date, *per se*, rather it merely marks it checked-out. I guess this be might be considered a permanent or semi-permanent loan but it would not be a transfer. Mind you, if a patron puts a hold on such a book, the patron who checked out the book would have to surrender it. The book would still be one of the library's holdings so that the library can avail it to the patrons and track it for property management reasons. (The OPAC would list it only *CHECKED OUT* or *BORROWED*.) Mind you, I am trying to avoid a proliferation and plethora of LOCs and CCODEs. I know this is a nightmare and it defeats the purpose of a library of shareable works. It would be rarely used, of course, but I can imagine a scenario in which it would arise.

Is it documented somewhere? I don't see a mention of it in the manual . We use public reports in a couple of integrations and I've never noticed a limit.

I'm just worried that one day my integrations are going to break because of this but right now we're definitely not seeing a limit, or if there is one it's much larger than 10.

Try reducing the time the results are cached maybe. There is also a limit on how many results the JSON reports will show. This is set by the SvcMaxreportRows system preference. The default is 10 so that can also explain surprising results. I think changing the LIMIT is just a way to overwrite that preference, so you could do that for individual reports or up the global limit.

Now, besides the above, I'm noticing odd behavior with the "&annotated=1" parameter, in that if I access the annotated report, then subsequently strip off that parameter and navigate again to the report, the output is still annotated.

Does this mean the Overdrive integration in Koha 18.05 is not functional and we will have to update to a newer Koha version?

We in the Irish parliamentary library (or Oireachtas) are looking at purchase suggestions in Koha and our acquisitions workflows. We are using version 20.11 As we understand it this is the way purchase suggestions and associated notices work in Koha 1) Suggestion received -- notice text sent will be NEW_SUGGESTION 2) Suggestion accepted or rejected - if you change the status to Accepted the notice text sent will be ACCEPTED. If you change the status to Rejected the notice text sent will be REJECTED. 3) Suggestion ordered - if a material is Ordered the ORDERED notice text is sent. 4) Order received - The AVAILABLE notice is sent on the point of receive and this can only be altered by holding off receiving the item until it is ready. 5) Suggestion available - We think this overlaps with the AVAILABLE notice text? We are considering deleting the Suggestion ORDERED notice so that notices are not sent out when a suggestion has been ordered as it suggest to the user that the item is ready when in reality it may not yet have been catalogued. Are other libraries are actively using purchase suggestions features in Koha and if so can you share some information on the workflows you have adopted? Do you have any tips on what works best based on your experience?

Thanks for your message! I have seen that this module is available in Meta CPAN. But I don't think this is the proper way to solve this problem in our Debian package installation of Koha 18.05.03. Especially since there are only four system preferences instead of eight anyway. At the moment I guess the desired Overdrive integration was never (fully) functional in Koha 18.05.03 and we will have to update to a newer version to actually use the Overdrive integration as intended.

My library has a fairly significant number of books with yellowing paper. The books are still usable -- we would withdraw it otherwise -- and we plan to keep them in circulation until the paper turns brown or brittle. We have marked such books with the appropriate damage value in 952 ‡4. Unfortunately, this has led to confusion among some staff and almost all the patrons because Koha reports the books "Availability: No items available: Damaged (1)." We would like to show a different statement, something akin to: "Availability: every item available but 1 damaged." The latter would mean that all items are available for circulation but one is damage. Of course, if all items are available but none is damaged, the notice would read "Availability: every item available." Is this possible? Might the OPACHiddenItems list be a solution to this?

It also notes the DBMS versions where the problem will be fixed. The easiest way to resolve the problem is deleting the doubled up entries from the old* and deleted* tables. Then you can implement the fix and restart your DBMS server to reset the primary keys to the correct values. This will prevent the creation of more doubled up IDs between the tables.

In 18.11 many features had to be "managed" by jQuery in IntranetUserJS and we are delighted many are now Koha system parameters (We moved to 20.11 recently). For example, we have significantly redesigned the OPAC form. We had both the Ordered and received tabs hidden, and I forgot to hide them again, and I was reminded to do this by a colleague ASAP. There does seem to be unnecessary overlap... at least using our workflows. Just a few minutes back I noticed the link Suggestions pending approval (showing the logged in library and All libraries) vanishes where there are no "Pendings".

We in the Irish parliamentary library (or Oireachtas) are looking at purchase suggestions in Koha and our acquisitions workflows. We are using version 20.11 As we understand it this is the way purchase suggestions and associated notices work in Koha 1) Suggestion received -- notice text sent will be NEW_SUGGESTION 2) Suggestion accepted or rejected - if you change the status to Accepted the notice text sent will be ACCEPTED. If you change the status to Rejected the notice text sent will be REJECTED. 3) Suggestion ordered - if a material is Ordered the ORDERED notice text is sent. 4) Order received - The AVAILABLE notice is sent on the point of receive and this can only be altered by holding off receiving the item until it is ready. 5) Suggestion available - We think this overlaps with the AVAILABLE notice text? We are considering deleting the Suggestion ORDERED notice so that notices are not sent out when a suggestion has been ordered as it suggest to the user that the item is ready when in reality it may not yet have been catalogued. Are other libraries are actively using purchase suggestions features in Koha and if so can you share some information on the workflows you have adopted? Do you have any tips on what works best based on your experience?

We in the Irish parliamentary library (or Oireachtas) are looking at purchase suggestions in Koha and our acquisitions workflows. We are using version 20.11 As we understand it this is the way purchase suggestions and associated notices work in Koha 1) Suggestion received -- notice text sent will be NEW_SUGGESTION 2) Suggestion accepted or rejected - if you change the status to Accepted the notice text sent will be ACCEPTED. If you change the status to Rejected the notice text sent will be REJECTED. 3) Suggestion ordered - if a material is Ordered the ORDERED notice text is sent. 4) Order received - The AVAILABLE notice is sent on the point of receive and this can only be altered by holding off receiving the item until it is ready. 5) Suggestion available - We think this overlaps with the AVAILABLE notice text? We are considering deleting the Suggestion ORDERED notice so that notices are not sent out when a suggestion has been ordered as it suggest to the user that the item is ready when in reality it may not yet have been catalogued. Are other libraries are actively using purchase suggestions features in Koha and if so can you share some information on the workflows you have adopted? Do you have any tips on what works best based on your experience?

Over the new few months we aim to upgrade both - from stretch to buster, and from 19.11 to 20.11 or maybe 21.05. Which is the best order to do the upgrades in? OS first, or Koha? My natural caution leads me to prefer to do them separately.

Some months ago, I deleted several records. None of the deleted records shows up in a regular search of the catalog. However, all three show up when I run a report on framework codes, they suddenly show up. When I go look by the bib. record number (999 $c), I see "NoTitle", and when I click on the link to "NoTitle", Koha tells me that the record does not exist. So the records show up only in the report(s), the evidence tells me, not in a general catalog search. Is this a known bug? Is there a fix yet if it is a known bug? Many thanks, all. -- 気を付けて。 /ki wo tukete/ = Take care. -- Charles.

We will soon upgrade koha from 18.11 to 20.11and we are trying to find a solution to the removal of items.paidfor subfield. We have used paidfor to store some item values so that can be easily searched using the item search functionality… Sadly, in 20.11 we have not determined any other column in the database that are not already in use or linked to another marc subfield… Thanks for any help, Best, Julien Sicot Applications documentaires DSI - Pôle Applications Université Rennes 2 02 22 51 44 41 From jonathan.druart at bugs.koha-community.org Thu Sep 30 20:45:59 2021 From: jonathan.druart at bugs.koha-community.org (Jonathan Druart) Date: Thu, 30 Sep 2021 09:45:59 +0200 Subject: [Koha] linked item subfield to unlinked item subfield (items.more_subfields_xml) In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Salut Julien, 'Easily' I don't know. But quite easily with a small script. 0. Have 2 frameworks, FwA with your subfield linked to paidfor and FwB with no DB link 1. loop over the items 2. Retrieve the item and save it using FwB (C4::Items::ModItemFromMarc) Haven't tried, but it should work. If you write it, I can review it if you want.
