Problem after upgrade to 3.4.1
by Seth Mayo 21 Jun '11

21 Jun '11

I finished upgrading to Koha 3.4.1 and then realised that I had missed the following two lines in the README.ubuntu file. So I've now executed them. The second needed to be run in sudo because of permission errors. misc/maintenance/remove_items_from_biblioitems.pl --run misc/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -r Now after running these, we have no records appearing in any searches anywhere! Any ideas or things to try? Considering that the second is a zebra rebuild I'm guessing it didn't rebuild correctly??? Note: I ran these scripts from /usr/share/koha/maintenance & /usr/share/koha/migration_tools as misc/ didn't have these there...

Which is a book's unique identifier?
by Mahesh T Pai 21 Jun '11

21 Jun '11

Dear All, Probably a silly question, but I am not a librarian. Koha version is currently 3.4.1; and previously, it was 3.00.00.107. The librarian says that they used to search for a book by barcode number, The number they refer to as barcode number is what is found at biblionumber column in table biblio. This is also same as what is called "accession number". Now, Is barcode same as accession number? For some reason, I feel that should not be same - accession number would be unique to each library; bar code may not be? (or have I misunderstood?) Again, biblioitemnumber is autogenerated, but books need not be entered into the data base in same order as they are acquired - especially when a library is newly moving into Koha. The search result by bar code is very inconsistent between opac and staff client. Same code _sometimes_ shows up as not found in staff client. This is apart from the problem already reported here, wher search for 123 throwing results for 123[0-9] also. Probably, both me and the librarian have not got at least some concepts about Koha. Some elaboration would be appreciated. -- Mahesh T. Pai || Distribute Free Software -- Help stamp out Software Hoarding!

Punctuation in MARC fields
by martin caris 20 Jun '11

20 Jun '11

Hi everybody, Is it possible that punctuation is automatic between different ISBD areas (for example: . - ) ? And is it also possible for the punctuation in subfields (for example: "," after the editor name or the ";" before the dimensions)? Thanks, Martin Caris

Z39.50 broke
by Seth Mayo 20 Jun '11

20 Jun '11

Any idea of how to fix the following error? This error occurs when Koha is told to import a record from Z39.50 servers. The Z39.50 lookup works fine, it occurs right when you click on the 'import' link to the right of a Z39.50 record...any help is greatly appreciated as this has been happening for a while now. We recently upgraded to 3.4.1 to see if it solved this problem or gave a different error to our 3.2.2 installation but it is exactly the same. Software error: Can't call method "add_subfields" on an undefined value at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/cataloguing/addbiblio.pl line 145. For help, please send mail to the webmaster, giving this error message and the time and date of the error.

The package can be retrieved from: http://download.koha-community.org/koha-3.02.10.tar.gz You can use the following checksum and signature files to verify the download: http://download.koha-community.org/koha-3.02.10.tar.gz.MD5 http://download.koha-community.org/koha-3.02.10.tar.gz.MD5.asc http://download.koha-community.org/koha-3.02.10.tar.gz.sig Release notes for 3.2.10 are below. Come and get it! RELEASE NOTES FOR KOHA 3.2.10 - 19 June 2011 ======================================================================== Koha is the first free and open source software library automation package (ILS). Development is sponsored by libraries of varying types and sizes, volunteers, and support companies from around the world. The website for the Koha project is http://koha-community.org/ Koha 3.2.10 can be downloaded from: http://download.koha-community.org/koha-3.02.09.tar.gz Installation instructions can be found at: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Installation_Documentation IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT CONCERNING 3.2.x EOL ======================================================================== With the release of 3.4.1, the 3.2.x branch is nearing its EOL. A motion will be made at the August 2011 general IRC meeting to officially announce EOL for the 3.2.x branch. Unless someone or some entity steps forward to take over 3.2.x maintenance, this date will mark the official EOL for the 3.2.x branch. Please keep this in mind when planning new deployments and upgrades to existing systems. Highlights of 3.2.10 ====================== This release marks over 700 commits since the release of 3.2.0. That represents nearly 90 commits per month since 3.2.0! Congratulations are due to the entire community for all of the hard work which has gone into improving Koha during this release cycle! Some of the higher profile bugs addressed in this release are: 2246 Label printing doesn't work with Unicode characters (Improved work-around rather than a fix.) 3072 'Heading-Main' authority-index breaks authority searching in STABLE 4993 ldap search always anonymous when using auth_by_bind 5860 Adding duplicate stocknumber will fail silently 5094 auth_by_bind authentication can fail even if given a correct password and userid Bugs fixed in 3.2.10 ====================== 3013 Value builder for 006 and 008 need choices for all format types 5653 default new label layout and sample data have broken call number placeholder 5684 Z3950 search on OCLC pulls in items (tag 952) 6061 C4::Context clearing up system preference on update 6131 (unimarc only) improper index name for personal-name 6091 Remove undeclared syspref OPACAdvSearchInputCount 6152 Authority-zebra-indexdefs.xsl should indicate it's automatically generated 6218 patron login gets an initial dot added when no first name 6315 depreciation warnings in C4::Serials in new perls 6350 Bug for tracking updates to the history file 6401 Give Ian Walls credit in the history file. 5760 Add the jquery table sorter to borrowers reading record System Requirements ====================== Changes since 3.0: * The minimum version of Perl required is now 5.8.8. * There are a number of new Perl module dependencies. Run ./koha_perl_deps.pl -u -m to get a list of any new modules to install during upgrade. Upgrades ====================== The structure of the acquisitions tables have changed significantly from 3.0.x. In particular, the budget hierarchy is quite different. During an upgrade, a new database table is created called fundmapping that contains a record of how budgets were mapped. It is strongly recommended that users of Koha 3.0.x acquisitions carefully review the results of the upgrade before resuming ordering in Koha 3.2.x. Documentation ====================== As of Koha 3.2, the Koha manual is now maintained in DocBook. The home page for Koha documentation is http://koha-community.org/documentation/ As of the date of these release notes, several translations of the Koha manual are available: English: http://koha-community.org/documentation/3-2-manual/ Spanish: http://koha-community.org/documentation/3-2-manual-es/ French: http://koha-community.org/documentation/3-2-manual-fr/ The Git repository for the Koha manual can be found at http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=kohadocs.git;a=summary Translations ====================== Complete or near-complete translations of the OPAC and staff interface are available in this release for the following languages: * Chinese * Danish * English (New Zealand) * English (USA) * French (France) * French (Canada) * German * Greek * Hindi * Italian * Norwegian * Portuguese * Spanish * Turkish Partial translations are available for various other languages.
