Re: [Koha] Help needed with report - how to extract subtitle and edition?

I think in this case you need to make the report using the xml field in biblio items table because the rest of sub fields you will find there

Subject: [Koha] Help needed with report - how to extract subtitle and edition?
Date: Wed, Oct 24, 2012 11:23 pm
I'm trying to catch duplicate items in data before I upload it (ISBN won't
help in this case). In order to do that I've written a report to list the
books currently in Koha, and will compare them with my external files.
However, if I can't include the subtitle (MARC 245 b) I will get too many
false positives (we have lots of things with the same title, but different
subtitles)
It would also help if I could also have the 250 a (edition)
This is what I have:
SELECT
biblio.biblionumber,biblio.author,biblio.title,biblio.copyrightdate,biblioitems.place,biblioitems.publishercode,biblioitems.isbn
FROM items
LEFT JOIN biblioitems on
(items.biblioitemnumber=biblioitems.biblioitemnumber)
LEFT JOIN biblio on (biblioitems.biblionumber=biblio.biblionumber)
WHERE items.itype='BK' AND items.holdingbranch='VWML'
ORDER BY biblio.author asc
This works fine, but doesn't include the 245 b or the 250 a Can anyone
help?

Hi,
I've just enabled cas authentification and i've an error.
Seems to be clear: The url which allows to connect is
https://cas.ecp.fr//login?service=/index.html
The index doesn't exists but i'd like to correct it. I suppose it's in
the perl module?
Best regards
samuel

Hi karam
I think this issue is very important to all users who use Arabic language We
need to know what the important modifications in Zebra index And koha files
to index the arabic words without suffix and prifex or searsh with root word
using zebra
I will give you example
We need to search for word (al-madrasah) this mean school We have tow parts
(al) mean (the)and (madrasah ) and the last caracter (h) may have tow forms(
? ? ) we need when we search for madrasa get madrasah and al-madrasah with
all its forms Sent from my HTC

Hi all ,
I'm new to zebra , and using it in "koha" ILS
in the Arabic language there is some letter come before the words or after
them these letters we don't need to index in our index I will give you an
example :
in English we can say : the car...
in Arabic the same is : ???????
if you note that the letter in Red is "the" and it's ignored in English
search but in Arabic search we need the zebra to find every record that
have " the word " or just "word" ?????? or ????
so how to define that to zebra
thanks a lot

Yesan,
Please send your support requests to the Koha User's list. You will have a
much greater chance of getting a response that way.
You should be able to do an "in place" upgrade. After taking a backup of
your current database, just install the new version of Koha and browse to
the staff interface to run the installer. There is also at least one script
you will need to run from the command line to remove the items from the
bibs.
Probably the best way is to move to the packages. I believe there is a way
when installing from the packages to import your existing database. Check
out koha-create for more on that. Also, I think the packages will run all of
the necessary back-end scripts. Someone else will correct me if I'm wrong.

Kind Regards,
Chris

Dear friends,
I would like to know if you have got a solution to migrate my KOHA database
3.6 to 3.8. I know marc records export and import. But I would like to know
if we can migrate the database itself.
Thanks

Thanks Mohamed for give more description about our same problem
I wish we can find a solution for this problem for all the users of koha in
the Arab world
while I'm searching i find something about the " ? ? ?" letters to
considers them all as "? "
and I find something about the suffix " ? ? "
the solution is to edit the words-icu.xml file and add these lines :
for ? ? ? :
<transliterate rule=" [\u0623 \u0625 \u0622] > \u0627 " />
and for the ? ? suffix add :
<transliterate rule="? > ?"/>
and for the ? ? suffix add :
<transliterate rule=" ? > ? "/>
I didn't try this I wish you try and tell me
but about ignoring the ??? letters in words i didn't find how to do this
I wish someone can help us about this
best regards

Thank you Sunil for that info, I have found the current one is holding info
at tag 852 I have edited it using MARCEdit 8.5 and when I import I see
there are items imported though when I go to the book itself to view it
tells me that "no physical items for this record"
what could I be doing wrong?

Hi karam
I think this issue is very important to all users who use Arabic language
We need to know what the important modifications in Zebra index And koha files to index the arabic words without suffix and prifex
or searsh with root word using zebra
I will give you example
We need to search for word (al-madrasah) this mean school
We have tow parts (al) mean (the)and (madrasah ) and the last caracter (h) may have tow forms( ه ة ) we need when we search for madrasa get madrasah and al-madrasah with all its forms

Hi all ,
I'm new to zebra , and using it in "koha" ILS
in the Arabic language there is some letter come before the words or after
them these letters we don't need to index in our index
I will give you an example :
in English we can say : the car...
in Arabic the same is : السيارة
if you note that the letter in Red is "the" and it's ignored in English
search but in Arabic search we need the zebra to find every record that
have " the word " or just "word" الكلمة or كلمة
so how to define that to zebra
thanks a lot

Yesan,
Please send your support requests to the Koha User's list. You will
have a much greater chance of getting a response that way.
You should be able to do an "in place" upgrade. After taking a backup
of your current database, just install the new version of Koha and
browse to the staff interface to run the installer. There is also at
least one script you will need to run from the command line to remove
the items from the bibs.
Probably the best way is to move to the packages. I believe there is a
way when installing from the packages to import your existing
database. Check out koha-create for more on that. Also, I think the
packages will run all of the necessary back-end scripts. Someone else
will correct me if I'm wrong.

Kind Regards,
Chris

Dear friends,
I would like to know if you have got a solution to migrate my KOHA

would like to know if we can migrate the database itself.
Thanks

Dear All,
I agree with the same, I always had problem in advance search especially for
the barcode based search.
Even if I select the barcode as search option and enter the specific barcode
number, Koha opac always show all the titles wherever that specific number
is entered. But other that the barcode number.
Is there any solution for the same?
Thanks and Regards

Message-ID: <50889C13.9080505(a)catalyst.net.nz>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
Hi there,
I am currently working on improving accessibility of koha opac site with our
accessibility expert.
One of the things we noticed is that the advanced search option is not only
confusing for blind users but also even for normal users.
I have noticed the following issues with it:
1) By default the Fewer Options option is selected, which is not obvious to
the normal users until they click on More Options.
2) The layout could be a lot better, in particular the Fewer Options search
form is quite abstract in what it does.
For example, the default boolean operator is AND which is not obvious to
even normal user.
In my opinion, layout similar to the one http://kea.massey.ac.nz/search/X,
is better.
Looking forward to your comments/feedback.
Srikanth

I'm going to disagree and say that site is horrid :)

Agree advanced search could and should be improved, but don't like example
suggested.
I generallly like the "look: of the Koha advanced search page. The problem
(apart from any accessibility issues) is that some functions don't work as
one might expect - as outlined below. Also:
We would like to turn off or limit languages to onees that are actually
available in our catalog.
The Search for additional content types is really misleading as it relies on
codes from marc field 008 which may or may not have been used.
I'm sure I have other issues with this screen and I would be keen to discuss
any improvements further. We support anything that makes it more accessible
too. Gay

Dear Dennis,
I believe you are missing MARC tag 952 series, 952 is the local tags which
contain all the information about the holding. For example.
952$8$9$a$b$c$g$h$p$y
$8 is for collection code
$9 is for biblio number
$a is for permanent location
$b is for current location
$c is for shelf location
$g is for purchase price (you can include the vendor name, location and
invoice details also here) $h is for volume details of the resources mainly
it is used for the journal/magazine/periodicals $p is for the barcode $y is
for the item type
Once you have all the required information in 952 series you can convert the
file into marc format and upload the same to koha, as the standard process.
Thanks and Regards

it is marc compliant, but when I take it to marcedit i view the file but I
cannot see/view the barcode, if I import the marc into koha I can only
import the biblios records, no holdings.

it is marc compliant, but when I take it to marcedit i view the file but I
cannot see/view the barcode, if I import the marc into koha I can only
import the biblios records, no holdings.

Subject: [Koha] Problems upgrading to 3.8
Message-ID: <96D8A573-0DC3-478B-BA5C-CBD5FD9974A5(a)westnet.com.au>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Hi,
This is going sound pathetic, and stupid, but I'm in need of some guidance.
It has been quite some time since I've tried to use koha.
I've been upgrading my koha from 3.00 towards 3.8 via the tarball method.
I was attempting to be good, and going in smallish steps so 3.00 to 3.02 to
3.04 to 3.06 and then to 3.8.
In between each upgrade I was trying a few searches to make sure that the
books end of the db was intact and then backing up the DB.
After the 3.06 step it seemed to be working.
But, after the 3.8 step suddenly most of the books seem to have vanished.
I'd put it down to noticing in the upgrade notes some extra steps that I
didn't see in the 3.6 or 3.4 notes (the ones about removing the duplicated
item details). So I dropped the DB and reloaded the backup from the 3.6 step
and tried without these steps.
I've also now tried the original backup too, without success.
I'm not sure at this point if it's the items that have vanished or the
records too. Yes, I have run rebuild_zebra -b -r as the koha user (several
times no luck).
So I suppose I'm looking for guidance on
a) working out what is going on.
b) how to get normality back again.
-ramon.

Message-ID:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
I'm trying to catch duplicate items in data before I upload it (ISBN won't
help in this case). In order to do that I've written a report to list the
books currently in Koha, and will compare them with my external files.
However, if I can't include the subtitle (MARC 245 b) I will get too many
false positives (we have lots of things with the same title, but different
subtitles)
It would also help if I could also have the 250 a (edition)
This is what I have:
SELECT
biblio.biblionumber,biblio.author,biblio.title,biblio.copyrightdate,biblioit
ems.place,biblioitems.publishercode,biblioitems.isbn
FROM items
LEFT JOIN biblioitems on
(items.biblioitemnumber=biblioitems.biblioitemnumber)
LEFT JOIN biblio on (biblioitems.biblionumber=biblio.biblionumber)
WHERE items.itype='BK' AND items.holdingbranch='VWML'
ORDER BY biblio.author asc
This works fine, but doesn't include the 245 b or the 250 a Can anyone
help?

I think in this case you need to make the report using the xml field in

Dear Dennis,
I believe you are missing MARC tag 952 series, 952 is the local tags which
contain all the information about the holding. For example.
952$8$9$a$b$c$g$h$p$y
$8 is for collection code
$9 is for biblio number
$a is for permanent location
$b is for current location
$c is for shelf location
$g is for purchase price (you can include the vendor name, location and
invoice details also here)
$h is for volume details of the resources mainly it is used for the
journal/magazine/periodicals
$p is for the barcode
$y is for the item type
Once you have all the required information in 952 series you can convert the
file into marc format and upload the same to koha, as the standard process.
Thanks and Regards

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Hi,
This is going sound pathetic, and stupid, but I'm in need of some guidance.
It has been quite some time since I've tried to use koha.
I've been upgrading my koha from 3.00 towards 3.8 via the tarball method.
I was attempting to be good, and going in smallish steps so 3.00 to 3.02 to
3.04 to 3.06 and then to 3.8.
In between each upgrade I was trying a few searches to make sure that the
books end of the db was intact and then backing up the DB.
After the 3.06 step it seemed to be working.
But, after the 3.8 step suddenly most of the books seem to have vanished.
I'd put it down to noticing in the upgrade notes some extra steps that I
didn't see in the 3.6 or 3.4 notes (the ones about removing the duplicated
item details). So I dropped the DB and reloaded the backup from the 3.6 step
and tried without these steps.
I've also now tried the original backup too, without success.
I'm not sure at this point if it's the items that have vanished or the
records too. Yes, I have run rebuild_zebra -b -r as the koha user (several
times no luck).
So I suppose I'm looking for guidance on
a) working out what is going on.
b) how to get normality back again.

Subject: [Koha] Help needed with report - how to extract subtitle and
edition?
Message-ID:

I'm trying to catch duplicate items in data before I upload it (ISBN won't
help in this case). In order to do that I've written a report to list the
books currently in Koha, and will compare them with my external files.
However, if I can't include the subtitle (MARC 245 b) I will get too many
false positives (we have lots of things with the same title, but different
subtitles)
It would also help if I could also have the 250 a (edition)
This is what I have:
SELECT
biblio.biblionumber,biblio.author,biblio.title,biblio.copyrightdate,biblioit
ems.place,biblioitems.publishercode,biblioitems.isbn
FROM items
LEFT JOIN biblioitems on
(items.biblioitemnumber=biblioitems.biblioitemnumber)
LEFT JOIN biblio on (biblioitems.biblionumber=biblio.biblionumber)
WHERE items.itype='BK' AND items.holdingbranch='VWML'
ORDER BY biblio.author asc
This works fine, but doesn't include the 245 b or the 250 a Can anyone
help?

I think in this case you need to make the report using the xml field in
biblio items table because the rest of sub fields you will find there
