Switching from default to fast add framework is very slow...
by Amir Seni 11 Nov '12

11 Nov '12

Greetings, When adding a new marc record i usually change the framework from defauit to the fast add framework and it is extremely slow in the transition. It takes about 20 - 25 seconds just to change the framework. Any tips on how to improve the loading time. Running Koha version: 3.06.10.000 Previous versions loaded much faster than now Regards, Amir

Hello I can't use yaz-client on a test VM (Koha master, running on Ubuntu12.04). I have not used yaz-client for months, so maybe I am doing something wrong, or something is missing in my install... Could somebody give me some piece of advice ? Koha is installed in dev-mode, on a fresh install (made today). Marc flavor : unimarc Zebra is working (rebuildzebra -b -x -reset + ./bin/koha-zebra-ctl.sh), and I can search my records in OPAC and staff interface yaz-client is connecting, but when I try to use scan or f command I have got this error : "[109] Database unavailable -- v2 addinfo 'Default'" Regards, M.

It looks as though you are trying to re-index as root, not user=koha (or whatever name you set up during install for zebra indexing); also, try doing it in two steps, as biblios need XML [-x]: su koha cd usr/share/koha ./bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -r -v -x then ./bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -a -r -v Best - Paul >Log > >zebrasrv -v all -f /etc/koha/koha-conf.xml >15:46:39-06/11 zebrasrv(1) [loglevel] returning log bit 0x4000 for >'session' >15:46:39-06/11 zebrasrv(1) [loglevel] returning NO log bit for >'sessiondetail' >15:46:39-06/11 zebrasrv(1) [loglevel] returning log bit 0x8000 for >'request' >15:46:39-06/11 zebrasrv(1) [loglevel] returning NO log bit for >'requestdetail' >15:46:39-06/11 zebrasrv(1) [session] Session - OK 1 tcp:::1 8232 >15:46:39-06/11 zebrasrv(1) [debug] ir_session (input) >15:46:39-06/11 zebrasrv(1) [debug] Got PDU, 117 bytes: lead=B4 73 83 >15:46:39-06/11 zebrasrv(1) [request] Auth idPass kohauser - >15:46:39-06/11 zebrasrv(1) [request] Init ERROR 1 ID:81 Name:ZOOM-C/YAZ >Version:3.0.49 8a980f7051e22ca1e4fac0395ed7f8647cd9eda3 >15:46:39-06/11 zebrasrv(1) [debug] result immediately available >15:46:39-06/11 zebrasrv(1) [debug] ir_session (output) >15:46:39-06/11 zebrasrv(1) [debug] Wrote PDU, 143 bytes >15:46:39-06/11 zebrasrv(1) [session] Timeout.

Email notices - changing the From address
by Shane Green 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

When the system sends out notices they are being sent from koha(a)explorethelibrary.com and so in most email clients they list the sender as "koha". Our patrons aren't going to recognize that so I've been trying to set it to add "Ash Flat Library". The usual method would be with quotes and brackets: "Ash Flat Library" <koha(a)explorethelibrary.com> This puts double quotes around the From and then shows nothing at all for the KohaAdminEmailAddress variable next time you open the Admin. Trying to escape the quotes with a slash doesn't work. No quotes fails by giving just Ash and nothing else. Single quotes fail as well. What am I missing?

New Version of LibLiveCD - DSpace, Koha & Drupal
by Sunita Barve 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

Dear all, We are happy to inform about the new release of LibLiveCD version 1.3. This version of CDROM is made available today on http://sourceforge.net/projects/liblivecd/files/Version-1.3 The current version of LibLiveCD contains lUbuntu 12.04 LTS, DSpace-1.8.2, Koha-3.8.6 & Drupal-7.16. All these three software are pre-configured and pre-installed on a livecd. The total size of the LibLiveCD is 696 MB. Drupal Content Management Open Source Software is added considering the requirements of libraries to create their library websites with dynamic look. Along with DSpace, Koha & Drupal the CD also contains following server related software preinstalled and pre configured such as:- Apache2 Web Server, OpenSSH Server, VSFTP Server, MySQL Server, PostGreSQL Server, Dovecot/Exim4 Mail Server, SquirrelMail Web Mail Client and Minimum desktop environment. To input multilingual data in DSpace/Koha, IBUS input method is also installed on the CD. Teamviewer 7 is pre installed to share desktop, Abiword for editing/reading word documents, gnumeric for using spread sheets, vim/medit/gedit for text editing and epdfview for reading PDF files. Openoffice/Libreoffice and multimedia related software are excluded from the CD and these can easily be installed by running "System Tools-Synaptic Package Manager". If the synaptic “reload” does not work try changing repositories links to http://archives.ubuntu.com/ubuntu instead of http://in.archives.ubuntu.com/ubuntu and then search and install any other software required. lUbuntu operating system (Lightweight Operating System) is chosen considering requirements from libraries where libraries have low configuration desktops in their libraries but still wish to initiate their library web sites, complete library automation as well as wish to create digital libraries. Please follow proper installation steps to install livecd if you wish to have dual boot i.e. windows as well as linux installation on your machines. If you are installing livecd on a machine which is running under proxy and if you are unable to browse Internet then on every boot you will have to manually set current date and time. To set current date and time manually run the following command on every boot to set systems current date and time. root@localhost:date -s "09 NOV 2012 03:35:00" Please change current date and time as above so that machines behind proxies can run Internet successfully. We would greatly appreciate your valuable feedback. Please write to dlrg at drtc.isibang.ac.in <http://ncsi.iisc.ernet.in/mailman/listinfo/lis-forum> for any comments/suggestions. With regards, Sunita Barve, Ph. D. Senior Technical Officer National Chemical Laboratory Dr, Homi Bhaba Road Pune 411008, INDIA Email :sunitabarve@gmail.com
