Path to upgrade from 3.2 installed with deb packages to 3.8
by Brad Gabbert 19 Oct '12

19 Oct '12

Hi all, We have a production machine that we installed on ubuntu 10.10 quite a while ago using debian packages. We got it working good enough for our purposes at the time and just let it be (because of no time to work on it more). Now we have a volunteer computer engineer helping us for several weeks and he has updated the OS to Ubuntu 12.04 and we are working on the next step of upgrading Koha to the latest 3.8 version. We have made several attempts and haven't been able to figure out how to get it done and keep rolling back. One of the main issues we have is that the original machine was installed using the koha package (not Koha-common). But the recommendation is to use Koha-common on the newer versions. So we need to know how to get apache set up for multiple virtual sites and OPAC and Intraet. Any recommendation on the proper upgrade path to do this would be helpful. We have already tried just building anew machine and importing a SQL dump, but while all the data showed up, there were numerous errors with schema structure. Any recommendation on the proper upgrade path to do this would be helpful. Thanks, Brad Gabbert IT Director International School of Wuxi

definition of "default" patron privacy
by Steve Campbell 18 Oct '12

18 Oct '12

Folks, In Koha 3.8 a patron has a "my privacy" tab. On that page the patron can set their reading list privacy policy to one of three values. One possible value is "Default." The explanation says "the library will keep your reading history for the duration permitted by local laws." Where is this value defined? I cannot find any system preference where "local laws" are defined. Steve Campbell Converse Free Library Lyme, New Hampshire US

by Steve Campbell 18 Oct '12

18 Oct '12

On the Koha Community Documentation web page (http://koha-community.org/documentation/) one can retrieve the full version 3.2 manual as a single PDF. I have found this handy for global searches of the manual. Does anyone have a link to a similar full PDF for version 3.8? Thanks. Steve Campbell Converse Free Library Lyme, New Hampshire US
