Fwd: Open Source Research Help Needed Please!
by Nicole Engard 10 Oct '11

10 Oct '11

This came across the Bugzilla list and I thought some of you might be interested in it. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Lila Holt <utklholt(a)gmail.com> Date: Tue, Oct 4, 2011 at 8:49 PM Subject: Open Source Research Help Needed Please! To: support-bugzilla(a)lists.mozilla.org Hello! We are asking you for some help from the Open Source communities. As researchers at the University of Tennessee we are interested in discovering more about learning and interactions of members of the open source forums. This research is conducted through the University of Tennessee and is in no way associated with any forum organization. To further our research we would like input from forum members. The responses are very important to us so we can better understand what tools help forum members learn and have a productive experience in participation. There are two ways you can help: 1. Take a survey about the tools you use in the forum. We are requesting approximately 15 minutes of your time to participate in our survey. Survey link: http://survey.utk.edu/mrIWeb/mrIWeb.dll?I.Project=FORUMLEARN *As a thank you, upon exiting the survey you will be given an opportunity to submit information to be entered in a drawing for a tablet computer (iPad). * 2. Have a one on one interview talking about the forums, how you learn, and tools used. *As a thank you for your interview you will be sent a $25.00 gift card. * Email lholt(a)utk.edu for more information. You may do either or both of the above. Please be assured that your answers will be confidential. No individual’s answers will ever be identified in any report. Should you have any questions about the project or our interest in using the results, we encourage you to contact Lila Holt, at lholt(a)utk.edu) or Vandana Singh at vandana(a)utk.edu. Contact information you provide for the drawing is completely separate from your survey answers and there will be no way to identify participants in the actual survey responses. Nor will contact information be used for any other purpose. The odds of being selected will depend on the number of respondents to this survey. Thank you so much! _______________________________________________ support-bugzilla mailing list support-bugzilla(a)lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-bugzilla PLEASE put support-bugzilla(a)lists.mozilla.org in the To: field when you reply.

Non-technical questions (and beating a dead horse)
by Hal Bright 10 Oct '11

10 Oct '11

Owen, I agree the list should cover non-technical threads and topics, but every question (3 in total) I have posted that was non-technical came back with A) please do not use the "reply"button to start other topics (that was the reply I got for non-technical post #1 and non-technical post #2 when I forgot about the response from #1) and B) a resounding silence on post #3 , #2 & #1. I then asked if there was need for a listserv for users (people who use Koha, but use support companies [the myriad that are out there] for most of the issues that come across this list). I was told no, that should be done here (after post #3), but still received no answer when I repeated post #3. I resorted to asking my service provider who provided an adequate answer. The above is supposed to come across as humorous, so a laugh is in order here>>get ready>>>wait for it>>>[Insert Laugh here]!!!! I have successfully posted technical questions and have received answers (and thank you!), but this is a tech heavy list. I still feel the need for a users list is warranted, but feel that this is a community decision, not one where I just start a listserv and invite people to use it. Hal

Koha Offline Circulation 1.2
by Kyle Hall 10 Oct '11

10 Oct '11

Hey All, I just thought I'd let everyone know that I've compiled a new version of the offline circulation client. Not only does this version not crash when you try to search a borrowers.db file, but you can now select where the file is, and the client will remember between uses ( previously the file had to be in the application directory ). I have created a Windows setup file available for download here: http://millruntech.com/downloads/koha-offline-circulation/windows/19-koha-o… If you are using an older version, please uninstall it first, as I have moved from a commercial setup creator to a FOSS setup creator ( inno setup ). I will be creating a .deb package as soon as I can. Also, now that 3.2 is out, expect to see some new Koha Virtual Appliances soon.

by faku 10 Oct '11

10 Oct '11

hi, I installed koha 3.0.6 with the livecd and ubuntu 10.04 and tried to do a update on the newest version of 3.04.05 of koha. Now I get the error 404 on starting localhost:8080 or also on :80. My install and update steps in order: 1. Install on a blank PC the liveCD with 3.0.6 and ubuntu 10.04 2. Runing webinstaller of Koha, marc21 and zebra are selected, as also the Z39.50 samples 3. Install compled 4. Copy of koha-install-log (/usr/share/koha/misc) to desktop 5. update and upgrade the ubuntusystem with apt-get update / upgrade 6. install openssh-server 7. install nxclient, nxnode, nxserver 8. unpack koha.tar.gz to desktop 9. sudo perl koha_perl_deps.pl -u -m 10. sudo cpan -> install all parts until "sudo perl koha_perl_deps.pl -u -m" birngs no results [all questions with "yes" or "y" ] 11. sudo apt-get install libtemplate-perl 12. open koha-install-log from step 4 13. sudo perl Makefile.pl --prev-install-log /usr/share/koha/misc 14. answer all questions as in koha-install-log is written (e.g. root/root insted if koha/koha, ...); when I not do that I got an error by sudo make upgrade or by starting webinstaller 15. sudo make 16. sudo make test -> PASS 17. sudo make upgrade 18. start localhost:8080 19. Update is done 20. Some error by Update 21. localhost:8080 and :80 is possible to login 22. restart PC 23. localhost:8080 and :80 brings the error 404 - page not found ----- other situation: I did everything like before until step 21. than I did: 22. log in as kohaadmin on :8080 23. change language form en to de (both); no selction allowed 24. back to start page - > error as in the old translation package - gui not usable, links not usable etc. not possible to go to settingspage ---- So I hope someone have a idea what I can do to get my first situation solved. I tried to do my install also with step by step installing but I always got problems, so I use the livecds. I choosed that live cd version because I want to use ubuntu 10.04. So thanks and bye Florian -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/error-404-not-found-koha-3-04-05-tp486510… Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Unable to place holds from OPAC
by Ian Green 10 Oct '11

10 Oct '11

Hi We have a problem with patrons being able to place holds from OPAC. See screenshot. I assume there is a rule somewhere that we have wrong. Can someone point me in the direction of where to look? Patrons are allowed to place holds on books that are not checked out. Borrowers are allowed 10 holds for this particular item type.

Barcode height
by Richard Hills - TechnologyWise 09 Oct '11

09 Oct '11

Hi, I am using koha to print labels with barcodes for books, however am wondering if it is possible to increase the height of the barcodes generated without increasing the width. In the last version we were working with these barcodes had a height of around 10mm for us, however this has now halved and users are finding it difficult to get used to. Thank you. -- Richard Hills TechnologyWise Ltd, Tauranga, NZ richard(a)tw.co.nz www.technologywise.co.nz ph: +64 (0)7 571 1060 fax: +64 (0)7 571 1061
