I can access de staff client but not the OPAC
by teleute 22 Jun '11

22 Jun '11

Hello, I have just installed Koha 3.4.1 in a Linode virtual private server and I can access the staff client without problems, but I can't access the OPAC. I have tried entering the ip and the port 8081 (xxx.xx.xxx.xxx:8081), and it says "404 not found". If I try the port 80, it says "it works! This is the default web page for this server. The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet." (the apache message) This is the first time I use a virtual server, so I feel a bit lost. I would like to make the OPAC the homepage of my site, but I don't know how. I would appreciate your help. Thank you very much :) -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/I-can-access-de-staff-client-but-not-the-… Sent from the Koha - Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Summary of Global Signoff Day 2011-06-15 - more to come?
by Magnus Enger 22 Jun '11

22 Jun '11

Dear Community! * GSOD #1 Our very first Global Signoff Day (GSOD) was held on 2011-06-15. During the 48 hours that make up a day in all available time zones, we reduced the number of bugs that had status "Needs signoff" from about 76 to about 45. (There were some bugs that got the "Needs Signoff" status during the day, which complicates counting somewhat...) You can see a more or less complete list of what bugs were changed here: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Global_sign_off_day,_2011-06-15 See the bottom of this page for some more numbers, and keep in mind that the dates there are relative to UTC: http://bugs.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/progress.pl As far as I can tell we were about 6 people signing off on things during GSOD #1, which is not an astronomical figure, but i still think we made some good inroads into the queue. (A number of the remaining bugs are actually ones that depend on other bugs that have failed QA, so they are not really available for signing off.) Imagine what we could have done if there were more of us... ;-) * GSOD #2 BibLibre have said all their staff will dedicate half a day every two weeks to signing off on bugs and similar tasks (woohoo!). I would like to propose another GSOD to coincide with their first such day, which is scheduled for 2011-07-08. Motto: "The more, the merrier"! Some questions spring to mind: - How can we get more people involved? - Should the name of the "event" reflect that other activities (such as closing bugs) are encouraged too? - How can we make it even more fun? -- Better/other lists and visualisations? -- Could we have the huginn bot on IRC annonunce new signoffs, the same way it does "needs signoff"s? -- Could we use some kind of VoIP/videoconferencing tools to make the social interactions seem more um... "real"? Or is GSOD a really bad idea, would it be better to channel our energy into making signoffs (and similar activities) look more like an ongoing task, and less something you only have to think about once a month? Best regards, Magnus Enger

Delete Complete Book Database in Koha
by R Sunil Kumar 22 Jun '11

22 Jun '11

Dear All, I have uploaded the book database through "Stage MARC Records for Import" using MARCEdit software. Now as I have tested the system. How can I delete the book details in one go. Deleting the database one by one in Editing option of Koha is feasible. Deleting the item type category is also not possible as there are items associated with particular item category. Please help on this.

653 uncontrolled terms
by Elaine Bradtke 22 Jun '11

22 Jun '11

We are looking at importing a batch of records from what will be in Koha a branch library which uses their own set of terms, generated arbitrarily by the fellow doing the cataloguing. These do not match any standard thesaurus, or even our in house thesaurus, but are useful to the users of their very specialized collection. I was looking again at 653 Index Term-Uncontrolled (MARC 21), which we had originally planned to use for our own non-standard terms, but abandoned because we could never get the field to function properly. I want to load the branch's terms into subject fields without any authority (uncontrolled). Where they will be fully searchable. I went into the MARC framework and switched off the authority control for the 653 $a. But in creating or editing a record, it still insists on linking to an authority. I don't want to create system-wide authority records for these terms as they are inconsistently applied, and extremely local in nature. I'm flummoxed. Plan B is to put them into a notes field, which is not really ideal. . . -- Elaine Bradtke Data Wrangler VWML English Folk Dance and Song Society | http://www.efdss.org Cecil Sharp House, 2 Regent's Park Road, London NW1 7AY Tel +44 (0) 20 7485 2206 ext 36 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Registered Company No. 297142 Charity Registered in England and Wales No. 305999 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Writing about music is like dancing about architecture" --Elvis Costello (Musician magazine No. 60 (October 1983), p. 52)

Using both barcode number and accession number in Koha
by R Sunil Kumar 22 Jun '11

22 Jun '11

Dear All, I would like to know whether we can use both Accession Number and Barcode in Koha. Accession is simple number series whereas barcode is customized like BK000001 something. Accession number is used for the patron to easily identify the book number, barcode is used for the fast / easy circulation process. Need your help.

Re: [Koha] Koha 3.4 on Ubuntu
by ajesh＠maxenna.com 21 Jun '11

Initially I added the following lines to ports.conf. Listen 80 Listen 8080 NameVirtualHost*:80 NameVirtualHost*:8080 Then on executing the command >> sudo apache2ctl restart ***************************************************** Syntax error on line 10 of /etc/apache2/ports.conf: Invalid command 'NameVirtualHost*:80', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration Action 'restart' failed. The Apache error log may have more information. ***************************************************** Hence I commented out the NameVirtualHost lines Now my ports.conf has the below lines Listen 80 Listen 8080 But still not able to open the web page. There are few additional things which I suspect might be the reason why I am not able to open the web page properly, 1) ********************** During the installation, after I install Ubuntu Packages from List, I execute the command >> install_misc/ubuntu-pkg-check.sh | grep none and see that the following is reported libyaz3 = (none) libyaz3-dev = (none) But in Synaptic package manager I can see that libyaz4 is installed. ********************** 2) ********************** Also on running >> sudo make install I got the message Warning: prerequisite CGI::Session::Driver::memcached 0.04 not found. So I executed the command >> sudo cpan CGI::Session::Driver::memcached at that time(ie after sudo make install) ********************** I believe I am close to getting Koha installed, but still few doubts. Also, I am following the installations steps mentioned at the below link. Is this the right one for Koha3.4 also. http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_Ubuntu If there is an alternate link which I can try, please let me know the path.
