No search results

We updated to 3.8 recently and then had trouble with searching - items would show up appropriately in the search, but they would all say "No items available". After some difficulty, our IT tech was able to reindex zebra and the item availability is now correct. He set the reindex to run nightly as we are a small library that only adds new materials weekly. However, I'm now having a problem with items not being found on search at all. Most searches show "no results for..." - this is for older items and recently added items. I believe these items were coming up in search before the reindex (although they all said no items available). Any suggestions?

Hello! I am getting the error below.... We can get into MYSQL from the command line. The Koha database and tables are viewable through MYSQL. I am getting this error on both the OPAC and the server. The file Koha.conf is world readable, owned by root, and has a group of www-data.

Greek character sets in koha?
by Manos Petridis 05 Sep '12

05 Sep '12

I was wondering how might koha become to recognise the following character sets Character Set: ISO 8859-7 (ELOT 928) ISO 5428 that are used in Greek libraries, like http://argo.ekt.gr/Opac2_3/Help/Databases/ENU/UOM_EN_.html From a reply to an older similtar question, for some other non-yet-supported language, I came to understand that it is a perl limitation and that koha only uses the multi-language support provided by perl, as and when. Is that correct? BTW, the Z39.50 target above is from one of the very few libraries in Greece that use MARC21 syntax ( for reasons described in http://unimarc2meeting.bnportugal.pt/documentos/10_Joanna_Demopolous.pdf ) so it might be of use for those of you that also use USMARC/MARC21 in your installations.

"Suspension in Days" is confusing
by Vimal Kumar V. 05 Sep '12

05 Sep '12

.Dear Friends, I have confusion regarding "Suspension in Days" option in Administration > Circulation and Fine Rules. I understood that, patron membership will suspend (Freeze) after specific days. He can't make transaction after suspension. He has to return the books to waive the suspension. Pls. make clear my doubt about "Suspension in days". Regards -- Vimal Kumar V.

Hi, I can't find the OpacCloud syspref. Has this been removed? (koha 3.8.2, from debian apt repository) I currently have two links in my opac that don't work: 'Tag Cloud' and 'Subject Cloud'. I'm not sure what exactly they do, so I wanted to disable them for now... Regards, Mourik Jan

Question about Report on Wiki
by Nicole Engard 05 Sep '12

05 Sep '12

This question might be for Ian (since he wrote the report) but anyone can probably answer. On this report (http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/SQL_Reports_Library#Patrons_with_Staff_…) why doesn't it show staff with edit_catalogue permissions? Is there a change I need to make? Nicole

values for syspref QueryRemoveStopwords
by Mathieu Saby 04 Sep '12

04 Sep '12

Hi In the manual for koha 3.8 and 3.6 , the values for syspref QueryRemoveStopwords are "remove" / "don(t remove". In the code of koha (3.6, 3.8, master) it is "ignore" / "don't ignore" Chris Cormack said me "remove" = "ignore" (for I wasn't sure of that), but it would be great if someone could update either the manual or the code of koha (I don't know which one has the "correct" values).
