Display of tag number on add biblio module
by Carol Ku 30 Nov '05

30 Nov '05

The path to the page where one would enter biblio information is: intranet/cgi-bin/koha/acqui.somple/addbibio.pl However, when I go to the file, it doesn't seem to show the information where I can add a tag number to be displayed. Which file should I go, I also tried htdocs, still to no avail. I have Koha 2.2.4 on Windows. --------------------------------- Yahoo! Music Unlimited - Access over 1 million songs. Try it free.

MySQL 4.1 and 5 use a different password hashing algorithm than earlier versions. I think so far all the Koha installs have used MySQL 4.0.x or earlier. I'm not sure of the best way to fix it. If I get a chance, I'll do some testing over the next couple days. For now, here a a couple links that suggest some fixes. Or maybe someone else on the list has a fix. I also want to see if upgrading the version of DBD-Mysql and DBI modules that we use might fix the problem.

z39.50 errors
by William Macfarlane 30 Nov '05

30 Nov '05

I'm going to add myself to the list of people who can't get the z39.50 lookup working. I'm running Koha 2.2.4, apache 2.0.55, RedHat 9 I have started the daemon using z3950-daemon-launch When I use the intranet interface to do z39.50 searches the popup window eventually refreshes to "nothing found", but the z3950 log shows a record being found and retrieved. If I run processz3950queue on the command line I find a record and retrieve it. The script doesn't end -- that is to say that I am not returned to the command line after running it... I have to ctrl-c to go back to the prompt. I don't know if this is a problem or why it would be, but it is a fact. If I look at the database tables I see that z3950results has been populated just fine and shows records being retrieved properly. marc_breeding, on the other hand, remains empty. I know a lot of people have had trouble like this -- has anyone solved anything? thanks a bunch, Will

Re: development wiki login

Hi, Linda - Normally, the window that asks for the password also tells you the password. (The intent is to stop bots without stopping people.) But right now I'm getting a simple "connection refused" message. Anyone else having this same problem?

Re: [Koha] Newbie: Windows NT server, Linux and Koha

Salvete! My husband says that if it isn't necessary to go the cheap route you can use VMWare to run a Linux partition on the Windows stuff. Here's their site. http://www.vmware.com/ But remember that most of Koha is webbased, so it oughtn't matter that it's running of a Linux box. The printer might cause problems, but I'm not planning on using that in order to save paper here. :) Cheers, Brooke @ Hinsdale MA
