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.

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

10 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

New BibLibre's sandbox server
by Jonathan Druart 15 Feb '22

15 Feb '22

Hi all, I think I haven't announced it here yet. BibLibre offered the community a new server for the sandboxes. It's a replacement to the old BibLibre one. Note that PTFS-E and Bywater's are still around :) The only difference is that this one is using elastic search as the search engine by default. https://sandboxes.biblibre.eu/ More info about sandboxes can be found on the wiki: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Sandboxes Issues or enhancement requests can be done at https://gitlab.com/koha-community/koha-sandboxes-docker Regards, Jonathan

404.pl
by Keith Sorbo 23 Nov '21

23 Nov '21

While watching the top command on my ubuntu server, I notice that while retrieving search items in the OPAC I get a lot of 404.pl instances. These seem to be a drag on the performance of the server. (We are a small school with a small VPS server). I assume that these are caused by Koha searching for missing covers. Is there any way to mitigate the effect of these searches? Is there a timeout setting or even disable these searches? Thanks.

by Hernandez, Heather H 03 Nov '21

03 Nov '21

Hi, all! The next Koha-US Cataloging Special Interest Group ("Cat SIG") meeting is tomorrow, June 3, 2021, at 8 PT, 9 MT, 10 CT, 11 ET, and you don't have to be a member of Koha-US to join us! 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! Information on joining us is always on the Koha-US calendar: https://koha-us.org/event/cataloging-special-interest-group-2/?instance_id=… And feel free to send me any questions or topics for discussion ahead of time! See you there! --h2 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ms. Heather Hernandez (she, her, hers) Technical Services Librarian San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park Research Center 2 Marina Blvd., Bldg.

Cannot see Google Login Link
by Mihai Rosu 14 Sep '21

14 Sep '21

Hi Everyone, I used the following guides to attempt to get Google Authentication to work on a Koha installation: https://sjamso.blogspot.com/2020/01/koha-and-googles-oauth-20-api-to.html#c… and https://koha-community.org/manual/17.05/html/02_administration.html?highlig… However, I cannot seem to be able to get the Google Login link to show up on the Login page. Does anyone have any ideas what the issue may be? Thank you, Mihai Rosu Rudolf Steiner Branch Chicago 4249 N. Lincoln Ave Chicago, IL 60618-1953 mrosu(a)rschicago.org 773.562.6254 www.rschicago.org

Search/List RSS feeds (trigger? add call number?)
by Bales (US), Tasha R 12 Sep '21

12 Sep '21

Good morning, I'm writing with a couple questions about out-of-the-box RSS feeds for searches. I'm interested in how to modify them (I really need one or more of our call numbers/classification numbers to be included), and how they are triggered. I see two types of feeds, below. "Subscribe to this search" * The manual says this feed "will allow you to see when a new item is added to the catalog". * How is a "new item" defined? I've taken a look at opac-opensearch.tt and opac-search.pl, in order to under how date limiting is coming in to play, specifically (which dates, what comparison, what fields, etc.). I do see reference to an 005 date "hack" for Atom, but it seems like only the RSS portions of the code are relevant. I'd like to determine if I can only ever expect newly added records to be returned, or would/could updated records also be returned? "Subscribe to this list" * I don't see information about this feed in the manual. * Since this is a search about already-cataloged, known items, it wouldn't make sense for the RSS to retrieve only newly cataloged records. Therefore, what should trigger a subscriber to receive an update about their list if an item has been updated? Is it the bib 005, or something else? I've tried editing a few records in a list I am subscribed to, expecting to get a new email, but I didn't receive a message. Although this last part may sound confusing, I'm leaving as is, as it may help explain context-I've added the feeds to my Microsoft Outlook, where each matching item shows up as a discrete "email" message in my RSS Feeds folder. Maybe the problem here is my understanding of RSS. My feeds appear to be refreshed every time I check my mail, but I'm only receiving RSS for newly added records. I didn't receive a new feed today of records in my "list" that I edited yesterday. Finally, I find that the RSS output is not usable for my patrons. We really need call number to be included in the RSS. It looks like we could modify the template line below to swap out isbn with another identifier, but I'm not sure how to know what term to swap in after "SEARCH_RESULT.": <dc:identifier>ISBN:[% SEARCH_RESULT.isbn | html %]</dc:identifier> I've tried "report-number", "callnum", "lcn", and "local-classification", which all failed to produce results. Please advise if there are any known examples about customizing the RSS templates for the basic searches above (I didn't see anything promising in the Wiki, when I searched for "RSS" or "opensearch.tt"). Thanks so much for your time, Tasha Bales Enterprise Services http://isesi.web.boeing.com/

Display issue: IntranetNav in 21.05.02.003
by Elaine Bradtke 01 Sep '21

01 Sep '21

Our test site is on 21.05.02.003 . Our production site is 21.05.00 The problem is in 21.05.02.003 We have some extra links in the IntranetNav There seems to be a limit to how much you can put to the left of the More menu. Once exceeded, the More menu ends up on the next line, but in an odd place. In this case on the very far left of the page: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AWF36xmnYSkvsxT-n7a9a4N6W2kGPFNn/view?usp=… When the More menu is clicked, it actually falls off the edge of the page - there's no way to bring it into view. https://drive.google.com/file/d/19fb6nR21jWKJG1-4WObawP4vBrCGoOX-/view?usp=… By cutting down on the number of characters that display, I managed to bring it into view, More is still on the next line, despite the fact that there is plenty of room for it above. Weirdly (and I struggle with left and right, so I never thought about it before), the production site running the older version puts our added links to the RIGHT of the More menu, but on the same line. I'm not sure if it's related to bug 23840 <https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=23840> or if it's a new problem.
