Hello Luis, You need to run the commands from the directory you unpacked the new 3.06. I have not done an upgrade to 3.06 yet but have done quite a few 3.02 to 3.05 and it was a piece of cake.

Koha/Evergreen feature compare
by Lori Bowen Ayre 20 May '10

20 May '10

Hi All, I'm opening this up to the larger community for your feedback. I've been working with a smallish group of people to get a Koha and Evergreen feature listing completed. It is done using Drupal so it is very flexible, relatively easy to edit, but not that easy to add new features. You can see it here: http://rscel.org/features and here http://os-ol/features The small group I've been working with has edit privileges and I'm willing to add other editors if a few more people are interested. Let me know. Any registered user of the os-ol.org website (and soon rscel.org too) can request that features be added to the list. I'm hoping, for now, that those of you very familiar with the features of the two current versions of Koha 3.2 and Evergreen 1.6 will look over what we've got listed and send me any corrections, suggest important features to list, and otherwise help me make this a thorough listing that helps people understand what is there in the product(s) today and what isn't. Once this is fleshed out and I have some assurances that we have it right, I will make the pages public and linked to via the menu-ing systems of each of those sites. These pages will not (and do not now) require registration to view. Lori Ayre

The tutorials are good, but we were looking for something like the most common questions asked by our users and the easiest and most accurate way to get to the answers. Questions such as "What's the latest James Patterson book your library has? What children's books are about boys sharing an adventure? Are your generic training exercises along those lines? Thanks!

And the only tutorials I see seem to focus on installation. Surely there are actual tutorials for circ staff??! We created some generic training exercises for Evergreen and they might be modifiable for Koha without too much trouble. Would that help, Barbara?

Activating StopWords and rebuildnonmarc script
by Toni 19 May '10

19 May '10

Hello, We are running a Koha 3.0.5 installation for a small library (with nozebra) and after customizing our list of "Stop words" we want to start using its the removal in the searches by activating the system preference "QueryRemoveStopwords" In the system preference description as well as in the online documentation says that "If you make any changes to the stop words, ask your system administrator to run the misc/rebuildnonmarc.pl script" The problem is that this script can't be found as part of the installation. My question is, Is it really necessary to run this script at all ? If so, where can it be found? Regards! Toni

Exporting Information from Follett to Koha
by Fahs,Joe 19 May '10

19 May '10

Hi All, We have been transitioning from our old Follett DB to Koha over the past year. We are almost ready to kick Follett to the curb, but there is still a lot of information contained in the database that we want to move over to Koha. All of the MARC data has transferred fine, but there has been trouble with some of the item level data like location, etc. Has anybody gone through a similar move (Circulation Plus/Catalog Plus) to Koha? Thanks, Joe Fahs IT Consultant Linde Group, Inc. 510-847-6662 jfahs(a)stmchs.org

Some new systempreferences comes in : - IndependentBranchPatron if you have to search your patron only of your library (default is 0) - XSLTResultsFilename and XSLTDetailFilename (File PATH Major updates are related to : - subscription history page has been made independent from subscription-add - Adding some exports to Koha as csv. - Major security issue. - Fixing and enhancing Holds message - Fixing enhanced messaging system. You can download. Cheers -- Henri-Damien LAURENT
