01 Sep '12

Dear All, Greetings from Mohammad Joynal Abdin Today I want to share with you all one thing that, Yesterday I tried to setup koha on Debian 6.0.1. But when I enter the command apt-get install koha it returns error like below. I added the line deb http://debian.koha-community.org/koha squeeze main in the /etc/apt/sources.list. It can be mentioned that apt-get update command executed successfully and it reports that Reading package lists...... Done. What's wrong? How can I proceed? Please suggest me. ERROR root@koha:/home/koha# apt-get install koha Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: koha : Depends: koha-common but it is not going to be installed Depends: dbconfig-common but it is not installable Depends: mysql-server but it is not installable E: Broken packages Thanking you in advance -- *With Warm Regards* Mohammad Joynal Abdin MA in ISLM, DU MCSA, MCSE Assistant Library Officer Daffodil International University Cell: 01811458896 Ext. 152

Batch item modification problem
by Cab Vinton 31 Aug '12

31 Aug '12

We have a number of items with a status of Withdrawn that we would like to set to "not Withdrawn". The batch item modification tool does not seem to allow this, however, as this means setting the Withdrawn status to null. Anyone have any tips on how this might be accomplished? Thank you, Cab Vinton, Director Sanbornton Public Library Sanbornton, NH Life is short. Read fast!

Zebra not updating biblios automatically in koha 3.8
by sunil sharma 31 Aug '12

31 Aug '12

Dear All, I installed Koha 3.8.02 and also check latest version of koha 3.8.04 on centos 6.2, The same problem I am facing in both of these version. when I enter any new biblio, it is not updated automatically to zebra, I am using zebra latest version 2.0.54 and all cronjobs are set. I also manually check zebra functioning by ./rebuild_zebra.pl -b -a -v -z but it shows export biblios zero, but I already added some bilios to koha yet it shows exported zero. And, when I use ./rebuild_zebra.pl -b -a -v -r then it rebuild all the biblios and my all added biblio shows in result i.e. exported 10 biblios. My question is that why ./rebuild_zebra.pl -b -a -v -z option is not working. where is the problem, because my zebra working fine in 3.6, is there any problem in koha 3.8. or any other issue. Please help me out. Thanx in advance. Sunil

E-book Check Out
by Amber Amland 31 Aug '12

31 Aug '12

Has anyone done anything with e-book check out on Koha? One of the teachers at my school would like to make an e-book available for students to check out on their own. Can a patron log in to the Koha catalog and check out an e-book himself? If so, how do I set this up? We're using Koha version 3.06 on Linux. Thank you!

Re: [Koha] Remainder of title not showing up in Koha catalog
by Bob Elgie 31 Aug '12

In Koha Digest, Vol 82, Issue 56 David Hartman says: > When my patrons search the Koha OPAC, they see the title but not the > subtitle. All of the "Remainder of title" fields are filled in Cataloging > module but the catalog only displays the title and not the subtitle. Is > there a setting I need to adjust somewhere? What also annoys me is that MARC tag 246 (Varying form of title), while searchable, does not display in OPAC. Ideally, I would like to see this field displayed at least when indicator 2 is 4 (Cover title) or 8 (Spine title) along with its display constant immediately below 245 in OPAC. Much confusion in locating an item on the shelf would be avoided in those situations where 245 and 246 are very different. Bob Elgie

ILLs on Koha?
by Library＠boystown.com.au 31 Aug '12

31 Aug '12

Hi All, Just trying to find out what is happening with interlibrary loans and Koha. I'm on 3.6 (and hoping for an upgrade soon) and I wondered if anyone has worked out a way to manage ILLs on Koha without an ILL module. I know one can't supress records on the opac, so I'm just looking at creating a temporary record and deleting this when the ILL is complete. Any suggestions? Thanks, Mandy Amanda Gardner Librarian BoysTown Suite 5 Cordova Street, Milton, Milton QLD. 4064 PO Box 2469, Brisbane, QLD. 4001 tel. 07 3368 3399 (x478) fax. 07 3867 1311 email. library(a)boystown.com.au http://www.boystown.com.au

Remainder of title not showing up in Koha catalog
by Hartman, David W. - GBTS Library 30 Aug '12

30 Aug '12

Hello all! When my patrons search the Koha OPAC, they see the title but not the subtitle. All of the "Remainder of title" fields are filled in Cataloging module but the catalog only displays the title and not the subtitle. Is there a setting I need to adjust somewhere? Thanks! David Hartman
