Marc Fields 336, 337, 338 (RDA)
by phillip＠livingstonpubliclibrary.org 14 Jun '13

As the Computer Support Person, I've been asked to add RDA support to our Koha database, but after considerable reading, it is my understanding that the Library of Congress has decided that this is not the way to proceed. Can anyone clarify whether adding RDA support is necessary and required for the Koha Framework to support upcoming MARC records? Thanks, Phillip(a)livingstonpubliclibrary.org

Koha SIP Server Telnet keeps "timing out" upon login.
by Scott Kushner 14 Jun '13

14 Jun '13

I keep getting error message, "Telnet Login timed out at SIPServer.pm line 220". Has anyone seen this error or know what it is? I don't think it is because I have the wrong branch listed in my SIPconfig.xml, because it has worked before, but all of a sudden, it has stopped working. This is from a git koha install, vers 3.10. I have used all possible institution ID's that I can think of, and it still doesn't work. Is there something else going on here?

error on import Marc Record from z39.50 servers listed in Koha
by Mesfin Teshome 13 Jun '13

13 Jun '13

Hi all, This is just a follow up on my earlier request for support. Is anyone having problems like this. I need to know because many more books are showing up with this error "Software error: Can't call method "data" on an undefined value at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/AuthoritiesMarc.pm line 273." If I try to import this same books and save in Koha 3.8, I don't get any error messages. Mesfin Date: Fri, 7 Jun 2013 12:05:29 -0700 (PDT) From: Mesfin Teshome <mesfinatyh(a)yahoo.com> To: "koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz" <koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz> Subject: [Koha] error on import Marc Record from z39.50 servers listed in Koha Message-ID: <1370631929.95126.YahooMailNeo(a)web126106.mail.ne1.yahoo.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Dear all, I am continuing to have some challenges with Koha 3.12. Our librarians are facing some errors when they try to import Marc Records from z39.50 servers in Koha and save. Importing goes ok but when they click save Koha throws the error below. This behavior is not consistent. It happens with some books and does not happen with others. I tried searching and importing the Marc records for this books on Koha 3.8 and import and save works fine without an error. ?The error Koha throws is:? Software error: Can't call method "data" on an undefined value at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/AuthoritiesMarc.pm line 273. Some of the books are: * The Political writings of St. Augustine * Calvin's Calvinism What should I be looking at to troubleshoot this problem. ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list Koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha End of Koha Digest, Vol 92, Issue 12 ************************************

RE : Zebra Indexing problem with upgrade
by Eric Bégin 12 Jun '13

12 Jun '13

David, Since you can search for the record before launching rebuild_zebra tells me that their is at least one indexation process that is working. I would look at the content of your /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-queue.sh (name may varies) to see what this script is doing that is not done by manually call the rebuild_zebra. Cheers! Eric www.inLibro.com -------- Message d'origine -------- De : David Whelchel <whelchel(a)pullman.com> Date : 29/05/2013 20:43 (GMT-05:00) À : koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz Objet : [Koha] Zebra Indexing problem with upgrade Hi All, I am another person with a problem when upgrading Koha that items disappear from search. I have read faithfully the news groups and have tried the suggestions found there concerning zebra indexing and search using marc21 with no success. I am upgrading from 3.08.01.002 to 3.10.06 on Debian Squeeze obsessively following the instructions in the INSTALL.debian section for the upgrade. I have detailed notes of what I have done and found but in a nutshell. 1) Download and extract koha-3.10.06.tar.gz 2) Check and install cpan dependencies 3) Make the upgrade a. perl Makefile.PL --prev-install-log /usr/share/koha/misc/koha-install-log b. make c. make test d. sudo make upgrade 4) verified the environment variables 5) updated the database from the web admin client. At this point I can go into either the OPAC or ADMIN client and successfully search. BUT once I execute any rebuild_zebra.pl command (all finish without any errors) upon searching the search results show the number of items returned but each item shows "Availability: No copies available". I have used many permutations of the rebuild_zebra.pl command. The one that seems to be recommended most is " /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -v -r -a -b -x ". If I edit an existing marc record I can see that volume until I run the rebuild_zebra.pl command again. I have been returning to this problem on an off for the better part of a year. I have gone to the extent of verifying any number of problems raised in the koha lists (such as making sure that there are no duplicate Field 001 values in the db) and would appreciate any help.

Automate adding 1 item per bib record
by kohanoob 12 Jun '13

12 Jun '13

Hi all, Greetings! I'm a koha noob, using koha 3.12 I've managed to import / stage about 1000 bib records after a few attempts. Earlier import resulted in 1000 bib records with about 5000 item records. After opting to 'Ignore' Item Processing durning staging, I have 1000 bib records. Now I need to add 1 item record per bib record. Is there any way to automate this? Could you pl guide me / point me to resources in this regard? Thank you. Sincere, warm regards Spurgeon -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Automate-adding-1-item-per-bib-record-tp5… Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
