Update biblio record error
by Vitor Fernandes 23 Nov '10

23 Nov '10

Hi there. Today I tried to modify some biblio record and i get this error: "Can't locate object method "delete_subfield" via package "MARC::Field" at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Biblio.pm line 2852." I've updated the MARC::Field by CPAN and tried to modify the record again. What's wrong? Shouldn't the MARC::Field had that subroutine? Cheers Vitor Fernandes

Scott, You can search for specific settings once you are in the Admin area. There is a search box there for searching settings. It's an OPAC / Policy setting.

Migrate Data?
by Fogg, Shawn (DPH) 22 Nov '10

22 Nov '10

Hi, I am looking to replace a Winnebego system with Koha. This is for a small library within a school where I handle the technology. I am not a librarian so have been learning as I go. Last spring I was able to export the data from the old system, modify it with marc edit and get the library holdings (with our bar codes) imported in Koha 3.0 virtual machine. We never went live with that system and it wasn't able to properly print barcodes and so on. In that system if I try and Update Koha it breaks the system. You get nothing but errors trying to see it through the web interface. Because of this it was put on the back burner. I am trying again with the new Koha 3.2 virtual machine as it looks like the bar code printing has been revamped quite a bit. I am running into problems importing the same marc file into 3.2, it is not keeping our bar codes. Is there an easy method of moving the data from the 3.0 virtual machine and move it to 3.2? Or any other ideas? Thanks, Shawn

Koha sharing online by default?
by knight 22 Nov '10

22 Nov '10

Hello, I have a new install of Koha to take it for a test drive and see how it will fit our needs. So far its looking like a great application that we will implement for our small school library. My question is I have the it up and running on a Ubuntu install and connected to the internet. I have entered some books to see how the program works. I left it on over the weekend (connected to the internet) Now I'm showing some books on hold by other libraries. Is there something in Koha that is setting the few books I have entered as available to other library searches? How can I make Koha local only without sharing any information with other libraries? I dont have anything against sharing its just our school library is very small and wish to keep it simple.

Zebra Search Issue
by Nitesh Rijal 22 Nov '10

22 Nov '10

Hello all. I'm using koha 3.02.00 in debian lenny. I have around 15 libraries running through that server. I installed a new library database, which is causing some problems. The problem is that, when I try to search the catalog using keyword, it returns no result. While searching using title, author, etc gives me the results. What may be the problem? Please help. Regards. -- Nitesh Rijal BE IT rijal.it(a)gmail.com http://niteshrijal.com.np http://facebook.com/openrijal http://twitter.com/openrijal +9779841458173

preprinted barcodes
by Caitlin McGurk 22 Nov '10

22 Nov '10

Good morning all, Could anyone recommend a (preferably as inexpensive as possible) vendor for pre-printed barcodes? I'm looking to get 10,000 labels printed, and most quotes I'm finding are in the mid-hundreds. Hoping for a little less! Thank you Caitlin McGurk Head Librarian The Center for Cartoon Studies McGurk(a)cartoonstudies.org

z39.50 server for childrens and educational market books?
by Fogg, Shawn (DPH) 22 Nov '10

22 Nov '10

Hi, Does anyone have any recommendations for z39.50 servers that cater to childrens books and school market books? School market books have their own ISBNs. The pre-defined servers in Koha don't have school market ISBNs and are missing some of the books we are looking to add to our catalog. Thanks, Shawn

import patrons
by Vitor Fernandes 22 Nov '10

22 Nov '10

Hi there. There is a perl script like bulkmarcimport.pl (script to import biblio record and items) to import patrons? By staff client I can import the patrons but there is something wrong... Because I have a file with almost 6600 patrons and by staff client only 5500 patrons are imported. I've checked and there isn't two patrons with the same cardnumber. So I've wanted to check if there is another way to import patrons that gives more feedback about import and if ocurres some errors in the process. Regards. Vitor Fernandes
