Help with setting up information to be displayed by catalog search
by Joe Ellis 31 Mar '10

31 Mar '10

Hello Koha listers, I have been trying to help a librarian at a small school here in Connecticut transition to KOHA from a really old system called Winnebago. I have managed to export her records in MARC format and to import them into KOHA. However there are 2 problems she needs help with. First I need to know how I can get the search result to show the Dewey Decimal Number for the books in the catalog. I know the data loaded when I transferred the records, at least I confirmed the data was in the file I loaded. Next, when she searches for a book it says the number available is zero regardless of the number of volumes she may have. How do I get KOHA to show the correct number on hand? Any suggestions will be appreciated, thanks. Joe Ellis Canterbury, CT.

There is no projected release data for 3.4 at the moment. We are presently working toward the release of 3.2 beta. I'm sure after the stable release of 3.2 a time frame for 3.4 will be forthcoming.

Re: [Koha] problem with PDF::API2::Simple installation
by Vimal Kumar 30 Mar '10

Dear Savitra and Ian, Thank you for the quick response. At last I successfully installed PDF::API2::Simple. First clean the old installation of PDF::API2::Simple using the steps provided by Savitra. After that I installed libmodule-install-perl deb file as per the suggestion of Ian. Then I installed PDF::API2::Simple from source. It works fine now. Thanks you again for the help. -- Vimal Kumar V. Asst.

Please help. do you have a working emailer on you Koha server ? An email is a software (like sendmail or postfix) that send mails. Without a mailer Koha, now, can't send mails.
