Upgrade to 21.11 Fails
by Bruce A. Metcalf 16 Mar '23

16 Mar '23

Greetings, Yes, I'm slow on the uptake, I've been running oldoldstable for some time now. With the release of 22.11, it's time for me to move up. My system was installed from deb packages under Debian 10, and has been updating fine. After an update (with no error messages), I find I am unable to access either the OPAC or the admin interfaces. Both give an "Internal Server Error" message, with a note that a 500 error was thrown by the ErrorDocument handler as well. Probably something simple, but not something I can see or find in the release notes. Help! Regards, / Bruce / Bruce A. Metcalf Augustan Library

Circulating non-specific items
by Caroline Cyr La Rose 16 Mar '23

16 Mar '23

Hello everyone! I need to pick the collective brain about a question I received from one of our libraries. They are a toy/game library. For games and books, they circulate items normally. However, they have some toys in many copies and they don't need to or want to have a specific barcode for each copy of a particular toy. They gave me the example of dinosaur figurines. They have 60+ dinosaur figurines, but they don't need to know that *this exact* dinosaur figurine went home with this patron. They just need to know that *a* dinosaur figurine went home with this patron. They want to avoid having barcodes for each dinosaur. Right now, they manage this in a spreadsheet, but would like to manage it in Koha with the rest of their inventory. Do any of you have a similar situation? If so how do you manage those items? Thank you so much! Caroline Cyr-La-Rose, M.L.I.S. Librarian | Product Manager 1-833-INLIBRO (465-4276), ext. 221 caroline.cyr-la-rose(a)inlibro.com https://www.inLibro.com

Adapting MARC frameworks and deleting unneeded tags
by library＠ssst.edu.ba 16 Mar '23

16 Mar '23

Hello all, Today I have another question for you regarding MARC frameworks and cataloging different items. While I wait for our IT to export the cataloged textbooks from our current system, I've been refreshing my knowledge on UNIMARC, going through the exported theses (2008-2018; for later ones I don't have an exported csv file yet) and trying to work out how best to adapt the MARC framework so they can be imported. I've also been looking up the mail archive to see how others have dealth with cataloging theses - if any of you could share your practice I'd be grateful! I downloaded the Books, Booklets, Workbooks framework I adapted from the Default framework, and in going through the tags I saw there were many I would never use; would these be OK to delete? I mean tags such as 20 Fingerprint Identifier, 21 Legal Deposit Number, or 36 Music Incipit, and others. For the eventual Theses framework, I also would not need tags such as 10 International Standard Book Number (ISBN) or 11 International Standard Serial Number (ISSN) and many other, but would need a tag where I could list the student mentor for that particular thesis. I'd also like to add a Serial publications framework. Would I actually be safe in deleting these tags, or is there a better way to handle them? In my earlier efforts to add Z39.50 servers, I tested adding a title I had in hand, but I am being prevented from saving it since some of the tags were blank upon import and I wasn't sure how to fill them out.

Overdue Notices and Advance notices not being run by crontab
by Ms. Naveen Ali 16 Mar '23

16 Mar '23

Dear all, Hope this finds you well. I have configured overdue notices to be run from Tools Overdue Notices triggers. My problem is that the cronjob overdue_notices is not being run automatically. The koha-common file in /etc/cron.daily shows the lines koha-foreach --chdir --enabled --email /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/overdue_notices.pl -t koha-foreach --chdir --enabled --email /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/advance_notices.pl -c When i check the logs of cron jobs, all the scripts are listed except the above two. I can run the scripts manually and the result is that the emails are queued. How do I resolve this problem that the scripts are run automatically along with all the others With best regards, Naveen Ali ITM-JE (EAKL) Inst Representative for HEC Digital Library Resources. NEDUET, Karachi.
