Greetings, I'm having trouble getting the Google login to work since upgrading/rebuilding Koha (we rebuilt the VPS and followed the install guide: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian) *The problem:* 1) I can log in through my local account, no problem. 2) I then try to login through my Google account 3) After pressing allow from the accounts.google.com site, a message is displayed: /Sorry, your Google login failed. .../ The full message is below. "Log in to your account Google login Sorry, your Google login failed. The email address you are trying to use is not associated with a borrower at this library.

Koha on Debian 10
by Clogher Historical Society 09 Jun '22

09 Jun '22

Hi, Thanks for the replies, it seems that I need to be running Debian 9 ( Stretch) not version 10 (Buster) but there is someone called: mtj on IRC who is working on Debian 10. There doesn't seem to be a downgrade option in Debian so reinstalling the whole operating system is pretty awkward. I hope (MTJ) includes Debian 10 support soon. Best Regards, Aindriú

Hi I´m tryin to do the DB move from 17.5 to 19.11. I take following steps: - backup 17.5 with koha-backup and I get two files a sql.gz and a tar.gz - scp both files to new server - run koha-remove biblioteca - run koha-restore sql tar files and I start having a lot of errors like: ERROR: File exists: /var/lib/koha/biblioteca/biblios/key/ and at the end I have: ERROR 1396 (HY000) at line 1: Operation DROP USER failed for 'koha_biblioteca'@'%' ERROR 1819 (HY000) at line 1: Your password does not satisfy the current policy requirements DBI connect('database=koha_biblioteca;host=localhost;port=3306','koha_biblioteca',...) failed: Access denied for user 'koha_biblioteca'@'localhost' (using password: YES) at /usr/share/perl5/DBIx/Class/Storage/DBI.pm line 1517.

Remove Not For Loan / Available distinctions
by Elaine Bradtke 26 Aug '20

26 Aug '20

We've been running Koha for a while, but have a new person in charge and they (correctly) pointed out that displaying Available / Not Available status for a collection that's 99% reference only is useless and possibly confusing. Is there an easy way to switch this display off? A quick look round the preferences didn't show anything. We're trying to avoid custom configurations because we've got very minimal, volunteer support. Right now, just about everything shows up as 'not available' even though it's sitting right there on the shelf. Thanks!

Can facets use search categories instead of item types?
by Michael Kuhn 26 Apr '20

26 Apr '20

Hi In Koha menu "Administration > Item types" you can create item types and group them as search categories. Our library wants to show its facets according to the existing 4 search categories instead of the 22 item types. In our library we have 22 item types like the following: Code: ASO Description: Aufsatz // Sammelband [online] Search category: Online Ressource Code: AUF Description: Aufsatz // Sammelband [print] Search category: Aufsatz Code: AZO Description: Aufsatz // Zeitschrift [online] Search category: Online Ressource Code: AZP Description: Aufsatz // Zeitschrift [print] Search category: Aufsatz The facets do show these item types according to their descriptions, thus Aufsatz // Sammelband [online] Aufsatz // Sammelband [print] Aufsatz // Zeitschrift [online] Aufsatz // Zeitschrift [print] But the library would like to have facets just like the following according to the search category: Aufsatz Online Ressource As I found in the Zebra configuration the facets are actually using the content of MARC 942$c (the code of the item type) and displays the respective description. Actually I don't see a way how to use the search category instead - but maybe there is one, that we can't see? My solution would be to * create new item type codes according to the current search categories * delete the current search categories * change all bibliographic records using SQL (still to be written...) by putting all content of MARC 942$c/952$y in another field (e. g. 942$d) and instead fill 942$c/952$y with the new item type code Do you maybe have a better idea to achieve our goal?
