I have just been having a poke about on koha-community.org . Congratulations to everyone who has been involved in establishing this invaluable community resource and warm thanks to Liz Rea and her team at Northeast Kansas Library System for hosting the site. I notice there is presently no link to the Koha 3.0 manual (at koha.org) . I see that documentation for 3.2 is to be posted shortly. Will a link to the 3.0 manual also be provided? Thanks again.

koha 3.0 compilation error
by Sven Jankofsky 07 Feb '10

07 Feb '10

Hi Guys, I am testing koha in order to find the perfect LS for a little library in the context of my study. I installed koha 3.0 to an clean Ubuntu 8.10, using this instruction: http://www.blazingmoon.org/guides/k3-on-u810-3.html Other components: webmin 1.441, Lamp, perl ldap 0.39. I finished the installation without any major errors but I'm getting the following failure massages: Opac: The following fatal error has occurred: Can't locate ZOOM.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/share/koha/lib /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Context.pm line 84.

In Prep for Bug Squashing Day
by Nicole Engard 07 Feb '10

07 Feb '10

Hi all, In preparation for Bug Squashing day next week (http://koha-community.org/koha-3-2-bugsquashing-session-210/) please go through the bugs you've reported and test those that have been patched. The fewer open bugs we have the easier it will be to identify the ones that really need our attention. I am going through the list right now of all bugs that have been patched, but I'm not sure how to test them all, so it just makes sense that the reporter closer his/her own bugs (as is the practice). Thanks Nicole

Fw: [Dlrg] LivelibeCD Release_2

Encouraged by good number of downloads, feed back back from the users, in this release-2, I have provided SCIM support, so that one can enter multi-lingual data in DSpace and also for MARC Records of Koha. However, depending on your languages choice, you have to use Synaptic to load extra language files. Here I have provided only Indic scripts ttf files. In addition, I changed Apache configuration, so that koha users need not give port numbers 8000, 8001 for its OPAC amd kohaadmin, they may use simply http://localhost/opac and http://localhost/kohaadmin. So will be for dbwiz search, the URL is http://localhost/esearch More documentation is provided with the release_2. A few known minor hitches are removed. NOTE: If you are accessing the services on the same system 'localhost' is fine. However, if you wish to access from another system, you have to use IP-Number on a LAN or IP address, if it an Internet IP based machine.

Patrons with no issues SQL report
by Agnes Rivers-Moore 06 Feb '10

06 Feb '10

Dear all Koha has a built in report "Patrons who haven't checked out <http://192.168.1.122:81/cgi-bin/koha/reports/borrowers_out.pl>" or Patrons with no Checkouts. It looks as if it should do what I need, but whatever date I enter, I get no results. I cannot see the SQL used to generate the report so I can't tell why I get nothing. Can anyone send me the SQL for this - patrons with no checkout history since specified date? Many thanks Agnes -- Agnes Rivers-Moore Assistant Librarian Hanover Public Library

I prefer qmail, which I've set up on several Koha servers. I wrote these (hopefully) easy instructions for qmail installation on Debian Lenny, though it should be similar for other *nix systems.

Zebra size error

13:59:42-29/01 zebraidx(2373) [fatal] mf_write: sort55 error (4) no more space 13:59:42-29/01 zebraidx(2373) [fatal] /var/lib/koha/zebradb/biblios/register: max=4294967296 used=4294967296 available=0 13:59:42-29/01 zebraidx(2373) [fatal] Adjust the limits in your zebra.cfg Stupid question, I'm indexing a larger load of Marc records than normal. Looks simple enough only for one thing I don't seem to have a zebra.cfg file. Anywhere else this setting could be hiding? This is a 3.04 installation on Ubuntu 9.10.

Are you running 3.0.4? or earlier? Are the problems only with the call number splitting? If so, please submit samples of the call numbers that are failing to split properly (include the numbering system you use ie. DDN LCCN etc.) as a comment on bug 2500 (http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=2500) Are there any associated errors in koha-error_log?
