Authority file bug? deleting a subfield blanks out control fields
by Elaine Bradtke 01 Feb '11

01 Feb '11

We're running 3.2.1, but I didn't see this in the list of things fixed in the latest version. I was editing an existing authority record. I clicked on save and received a long list of error messages. Basically all the fields that were filled in under tab 0 had been blanked out (I didn't check to see if everything else had been wiped out). Koha still thought it was the same authority record because it still displayed the original authority record number (it said Modify authority #1519 Personal Name). On further investigation, I believe it is related to deleting a subfield in the 666 field (it would be that number). If I clicked on delete subfield, this caused the other fields to blank. If I manually erased the information in the subfield, it functioned normally. Deleting subfields doesn't seem to cause this problem in editing biblio records. Has anyone else encountered this? -- 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)

Hi Next week, I am making a presentation to National Library project regarding Koha and wish to show the OPAC system in Tetun language. Is anyone aware of any online Koha "showcase sites" that allow the OPAC to be changed to present in other languages, that I could use to make the presentation? cheers Karen Myers

#koha IRC channel moving to irc.oftc.net:6667
by Galen Charlton 01 Feb '11

01 Feb '11

Hi, Given the ongoing outage of the citylink.co.nz IRC server, we're now using OFTC for the #koha IRC channel. To connect, please point your client to server irc.oftc.net, port 6667, channel #koha. This will likely be a permanent change, but we can confirm or deny that during the IRC meeting tomorrow. Regards, Galen -- Galen Charlton gmcharlt(a)gmail.com

English (Great Britain)
by Elaine Bradtke 31 Jan '11

31 Jan '11

I know, this is a minor problem in the scheme of things but. . . One of the first comments we got after the launch of our new catalogue was from a colleague at the British Library. He politely pointed out that we are the *English* Folk Dance and Song Society, and really should be using British spellings. The "Library Catalog" is a glaring example of a non-British spelling right on the front page. My IT wizard said he could change that to 'catalogue', but the next time we apply an update it would revert to the original. Also the title of the web page displays as catalog, even though our url is catalogue.efdss.org! Does anyone know if the English (New Zealand) language package uses catalogue? When I looked at http://www.library.org.nz/ they use catalog. Are there other Koha users in Britain who would like to see British English in Koha? I'd be willing to work on a 'translation' for British English, though I'd like some input from a native. As you might guess from my surname, I'm not originally from these parts. -- 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)

No circulation or checkout history
by Marty 31 Jan '11

31 Jan '11

I really need some ideas here. When I drop my koha database and start from scratch, everything seems to work fine, I played around with it and basically have a sample database that works wonderful, including circulation and checkout history. However, when I drop my old database into the koha database everything seems to work except for circulation/reading history. I understand that information comes from the 'statistics' table. But even if I completely empty the 'statistics' table and start from scratch I do not get circulation or checkout history. Both intranetreadinghistory and opacreadinghistory are set to 'allow' The apache2 error log gives me the following, but that might have nothing to do with it; Because I am upgrading from a previous version koha wants to update the database, and it returns this error: [Mon Jan 31 10:16:00 2011] install.pl: The following errors were returned while attempting to run the updatedatabase.pl script: [Mon Jan 31 10:16:00 2011] install.pl: [Mon Jan 31 10:15:59 2011] updatedatabase.pl: DBD::mysql::db do failed: Duplicate column name 'privacy' at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/installer/data/mysql/updatedatabase.pl line 3887. I haven't been able to find duplicate columns named privacy, as far as I'm concerned the only tables named privacy are in 'borrowers' and 'deletedborrowers'
