Problem with holds/reserves after update
by Martin Longo 10 Feb '10

10 Feb '10

Hello there ... I am running Koha 3.00.06.005 on a Linux Debian lenny and I'm having problems with holds/reserves after updating my 3.0.1 to 3.0.5 and the problem persist with this version. Whenever I try to place a hold on any item, from the intranet or from the OPAC, the system tells me 'none of these items can be placed on hold.' The OPAC also says 'Unavailable (lost or missing)' besides every item of the record... and every item has a red 'X' .. so I can't reserve the next copy available and I can't select wich item I want to reserve Now... I have checked and there is no flag in the items that marks them as lost or withdrawn. and is not very likely that the entire catalog was marked as lost by mistake... My logs report the following Whenever I click on Place Hold on the detailed view of the record (in the intranet): [Tue Feb 09 14:10:17 2010] [error] [client 192.168.212.12] [Tue Feb 9 14:10:17 2010] request.pl: Use of uninitialized value $findborrower in substitution (s///) at /home/koha/kohafromgit/reserve/request.pl line 68., referer: http://192.168.212.19:9090/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl?biblionumber=14… [Tue Feb 09 14:10:17 2010] [error] [client 192.168.212.12] [Tue Feb 9 14:10:17 2010] request.pl: Use of uninitialized value $transfertwhen in string ne at /home/koha/kohafromgit/reserve/request.pl line 327., referer: http://192.168.212.19:9090/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl?biblionumber=14… [Tue Feb 09 14:10:17 2010] [error] [client 192.168.212.12] [Tue Feb 9 14:10:17 2010] request.pl: Use of uninitialized value $transfertwhen in string ne at /home/koha/kohafromgit/reserve/request.pl line 327., referer: http://192.168.212.19:9090/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl?biblionumber=14… [Tue Feb 09 14:10:17 2010] [error] [client 192.168.212.12] [Tue Feb 9 14:10:17 2010] request.pl: Use of uninitialized value $num_override in numeric eq (==) at /home/koha/kohafromgit/reserve/request.pl line 382., referer: http://192.168.212.19:9090/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl?biblionumber=14… [Tue Feb 09 14:10:17 2010] [error] [client 192.168.212.12] [Tue Feb 9 14:10:17 2010] request.pl: Use of uninitialized value $num_available in numeric eq (==) at /home/koha/kohafromgit/reserve/request.pl line 382., referer: http://192.168.212.19:9090/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl?biblionumber=14… [Tue Feb 09 14:10:17 2010] [error] [client 192.168.212.12] [Tue Feb 9 14:10:17 2010] request.pl: Use of uninitialized value in hash element at /home/koha/kohafromgit/reserve/request.pl line 493., referer: http://192.168.212.19:9090/cgi-bin/koha/catalogue/detail.pl?biblionumber=14… And this when I enter the cardnumber of the patron that is palcing the hold and click Search ..

I have also set up reserve policies for the specific itemtype and choose 'from any library' If I look at the database I find some tables that I think are related to this config: branch_borrower_circ_rules has branchcode categorycode maxissueqty OUN S 7 branch_item_rules has branchcode itemtype holdallowed OLE IMP 2 OUN IMP 2 And then .. I have found some other tables that i guess contain default values ... default_borrower_circ_rules has categorycode maxissueqty A 7 S 7 default_branch_circ_rules has nothing default_branch_item_rules has itemtype holdallowed IMP 2 default_circ_rules has nothing ... but this one is weird... cause it has a column named 'singleton' defined as enum('singleton') .. so "singleton" is the only value that column can have ... Ok .. guess is all the info I have at the moment ... If somebody have a tip or a solution to my problem it would be great! Thanks in advance -- Ing. J. Martin Longo Depto.

I am very interested in an ILL module too - having worked as an ILL librarian for several years it's one of the very few things that stand out as "missing" in Koha, in my eyes. I also think that Norwegian librarians are used to having this functionality integrated into their ILS, as opposed to et least some other countries, where I understand that the norm is to deal with this functionality outside of the ILS. Unfortunately, here in Norway we have our very own ILL standard or protocol, called NILL, which is documented, in Norwegian only, here: http://www.biblev.no/nill/ Basically the protocol consists of a set of XML messages that are passed between systems over e-mail(!). Now, NILL may or may not be of interest to libraries outside Norway, but I am thinking that at least some functionality will be of common interest, and that there could be a choice of different protocols, or an easy way to adapt the core functionality to different protocols. I am but a tiny vendor trying to attract my first customers, but I certainly hope to be able to find a library that could be interested enough in Koha to be willing to sponsor some work on ILL and NILL. In the meantime I am more than willing to contribute time and any knowledge on the subject that I may have, in order to help Koha get an ILL module up and running.

We have a couple of prospective customers that are currently using ILL on their existing systems and a few customers who are likely to be interested. We have not worked out a spec yet or the funding, but have been discussing doing so. Folks here developed the Interlibrary Loans for Unicorn in the UK so we have some experience of developing this and understanding the workflow. That was done with the Unicorn API and without access to the source code, so it can only be easier on Koha. The UK libraries make much use of the British Library Document Supply Service but also often interlend between institutions. Both of these are often required or highly desirable by UK libraries. Is there any more interest out there? All the best.

They use a format called ARTTel (it's a plain text format, pretty basic). There is a call for some other formats though, mainly a generic type letter and also the BMA (British Medical Association). ISOILL never really kicked off and we don't really hear of any call for this. I think, ideally, something where you could plugin extra formats would be ideal so that they could be added to on a regional basis or as the need arose. I know Spain and Denmark have regional formats.

Display patron's name

Hi, Is there a system preference which can be used to display the patron's name in the catalog detail screens of the OPAC?

Z39.50 and Amicus - update
by Agnes Rivers-Moore 09 Feb '10

09 Feb '10

Dear all A while back I did some testing of Z39.50 cataloguing search, and wrote a piece on my results. At the time I found that searching Amicus was considerably slower than other sources (and I did test over several weeks, on and off). I am glad to report that Amicus is no longer slow to respond. This does not invalidate the general point, that each Z39.50 target should be evaluated to ensure that it is responding promptly (or at all) when choosing preferred sources for MARC records.

Woo hoo - first donation received today for Koha Conference! From outside New Zealand the easiest way to make donations to using the paypal 'donate' button on the Koha Con site: http://kohacon.appspot.com/ From within New Zealand either send a cheque or use the Paypal button again. HLT is a registered charitable trust so not only do we pay no tax but donations are tax deductible too (in NZ anyway - not sure elsewhere). All donations will be acknowledged by a receipt. Thanks all, Cheers Jo.

patron login via URL
by Zachary Spalding 09 Feb '10

09 Feb '10

I am creating some generic patron logins that would be done via a url like the following http://koha.host.org/cgi-bin/koha/opac-main.pl?userid=MYPATRON&password=PAT… When I use the link it appears to work and I get a welcome to the user at the top right, but once they do a search it appears the session is lost. Is there a security setting that prevents this type of logon. Zack

Acquisitions Budget terminology
by Colin Campbell 09 Feb '10

09 Feb '10

On the display of funds we have columns 'Ordered' and 'Spent'. Isn't the usual terminology something like 'Encumbered' and 'Paid' ? Also what is the significance of the 'locked' flag on the budget screen?
