non-public note in 3.2
by Linda Culberson 26 Oct '10

26 Oct '10

Does 3.2 not have a non-public note field in items any more? The wiki has that field blank in http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Holdings_data_fields_%289xx%29#MARC21_H… Please tell me it does or something else I can use, because we need it.

Strange search results behaviour in 3.2
by Elaine Bradtke 26 Oct '10

26 Oct '10

While trying out some of the features in 3.2, something weird started to happen. In the staff interface - I ran a search that resulted in about 40 hits. I selected six of them. When I tried to save the selected items to a list, it presented me with a list of completely different titles, things that were not even in the original hit list. At first glance it appears that these are random items. Looking more closely, when I clicked on the record in the brief list, the actual bib record that came up was for the subsequent title in the imported file. The OPAC is doing the same thing. Five minutes ago, everything was working as it should. It all started shortly after I downloaded a record from the OPAC. I'm using Chrome from a PC at the moment, if this makes any difference. . . Just tested it on Firefox, the same thing happened. Anyone else notice this? Any ideas on what's causing it?? -- 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)

Thank you very much, file permissions were indeed the issue. It's searching again. Apparently today is a much better day then yesterday! Thanks everybody for all your help! (I sent this earlier, but I am behind a firewall or something that does weird things to my e-mails) Marty --- On Tue, 10/26/10, Bernardo Gonzalez Kriegel <bgkriegel(a)gmail.com> wrote: From: Bernardo Gonzalez Kriegel <bgkriegel(a)gmail.com> Subject: Re: [Koha] No search results again...

Please keep the thread on list as it might help others and others might be able to help.

Running the zebraqueue-daemon is an poorly documented no-no. See http://koha-community.org/documentation/faq/searching/#18 I would suggest: 1. Making sure the zebraqueue daemon is *not* running; then try starting the zebra daemon. 2. Verify paths in koha-zebra-ctl.sh Kind Regards, Chris

Re: [Koha] Item information in 852 field
by Scott Owen 25 Oct '10

25 Oct '10

Download MARCedit. http://people.oregonstate.edu/~reeset/marcedit/html/issues.html This first thing I would do is use MARCedit to tear apart the records from your old system and examine them closely. Match the 852 to the 952 fields. You will probably need to match up the sub fields as well. Here are some rough notes I kept on migrating from Koha 2.29 to 3.xx You may need to use much the same process to create the correct 952 field entries. (in this case I create a temporary 998 field and use it to rebuild the 952 field.) You could use the same process to copy the 852 fields to the correct 952 fields. ************************************************* Koha 2.29 export =952 \\$bPINE$d$kF HAR$p70268$r{dollar}12.89$t2$u269 =952 \\ $9 --- price $bPINE ---holding branch $d -- Date Acquired $kF HAR -- itemcallnumber $p70267 --- barcode $r -- replacementprice $t1 --- copy number $u268 --- URI $v -- dateacces $w -– replacementpricedate KOHA 3 EXPORT =952 \\$70$kF HAN$p70262$r{dollar}13.99$40$00$911$bPINE$yBOOK$10$u263$dPINE$t2 KOHA3 KOHA3 CODE action on KOHA229 $7—- 0 Not for loan -- $c-- F HAN Shelving location code --$k Copy to $o, rpl w/$c $p—- 74255 barcode --$p SAME $r—- 2010-8-7 Date last seen --$v COPY TO $s, rpl w/$r $4—- 0 Damaged status -- $0—- 0 Withdrawn status -- $9—- 12 Koha itemnumber (autogenerated) -- $b—- PINE branchcode --$b SAME $y—- BOOK Koha item type --BK (must match) $1—- 0 Lost status -- $u—- 4264 Uniform Resource Identifier --$u SAME $d—2007-8-17 Date acquired --$d DELETE $t—- 6 Copy number --$t SAME $o-- F HAN Koha Full call number -- $v–- cost replacement price --$r REPLACE WITH A $v COPY FIELD 952 to 998 SWAP FIELDS 998$k to 952$o ADD TO EXISTING FIELD SWAP FIELDS 998$v COPY TO 952$s ADD TO EXISTING FIELD Replace =952(.*)\$k =952$1$c =952(.*)\$r =952$1$v =952(.*)\$s =952$1$r EDIT subfield: Field 952 Subfield y Field data BK Replace with BK Check—add subfield if not present EDIT subfield: Field 952 Subfield a Field data PINE Replace with PINE Check—add subfield if not present EDIT subfield: Field 952 Subfield d Field data Remove text EDIT subfield: Field 952 Subfield v Field data Remove text SWAP FIELDS 998$r to 952$v ADD TO EXISTING FIELD DELETE field 998 ****************************************** >>> Ingrid Karklins<ingridrk(a)stedwards.edu> 10/25/2010 1:29 PM >>> Hello. I'm the librarian at the Griffin School in Austin, Texas (a small a college preparatory high school with a focus on the arts). We recently successfully migrated our MARC21 records from Book Systems into Koha. We did *not* succeed in bringing individual *items*. Looking at the Book Systems MARC records, I see that the item barcode and call number are located in the 852 field. Is there are way to bring these into the Koha default 952 fields? Alternately, is there a way to batch create one item each for each of our bibliographic records? Thanks much for your suggestions in advance.
