Exporting variables and executing rebuild scripts is nothing but Bash's functionality. But perl does provide a way to execute bash commands. So I think you don't need separate .sh files but just modify the existing Koha code. Another advantage is Koha runs as a CGI application. So what you are saying is possible. The only problem I see here is, rebuilding a zebra index requires superuser privileges. So I think it's not a good idea to provide a user with such a "button". If you read Koha Installation Doc, they have provided a CRON script which runs every 5 minutes to rebuild zebra index. Of course you can adjust that interval anytime. (I hope you are using Debian or equivalent GNU/Linux distribution to run Koha on) -- With Regards Abhishek Amberkar http://www.kohaindia.org/ RDG Library Services Mumbai, India. _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list Koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha

Some issues related to KOHA 3.0
by nitesh rijal 01 Jan '10

01 Jan '10

Hello all. Happy New Year to all. I have used KOHA for 3 months and now almost all of my problems has been solved. Thanks to all the members of the list who always replied to other posts and helped people out in the best way they could. KOHA is such a stable package that I could modify the codes very well and get it to work as I wanted. I have added few functionalities by modifying the codes. I have added biblio search option, direct biblio edit and also fulltext integration in a newer way. I am now testing the barcode system to be used with our system. I hope it works too. I am a bit confused that what happens when I scan a barcode, what inteface should I use to scan it and what features should I enable??? The other thing I wanted to ask is that is it possible to run the rebuild_zebra.pl in my server through a button click in the web interface by the client. We have 12 libraries hosted in a single KOHA install using the multiple zebra multiple database facility. Each library's database needs to be selected first using "use library1" and then we need to export the KOHA_CONF as "export KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/library1-conf.xml" and then only we can execute the rebuild script. I was thinking to make another sh script to store all the commands that needs to be executed and then execute the script. I just wanted to know that is it possible to execute a script in the server by clicking a button in the web interface. Thanks and Happy New Year to all once again. KOHA is a great community. -- Nitesh Rijal BE IT email: rijal.it(a)gmail.com url: http://niteshrijal.com.np facebook: http://facebook.com/openrijal twitter: http://twitter.com/openrijal +9779841458173

overdue e-mail notice triggers
by Nelson Fredsell (nelsonf) 31 Dec '09

31 Dec '09

Hello all, I can't get the overdue notices to trigger using crontab, nor can I generate the notices manually by running the perl script from the command line in PuTTY. !! We're Koha 3.00.01 using Postfix. crontab lines include For testing, I'm trying to generate notices ONLY for my patron type (LIB-S - superlibrarian) and my branch (CFCE). Under Home>Administration>Patron categories only LIB-S patron type is set to Overdue = Yes. All others are set to Overdue = No. 1) I have overdue items due over several days, Dec 19, 20, 21, 22. in Home>Tools>Notice triggers (../overduerules.pl). 2) I have Default library set to Delay NULL and Letters 1,2,3 set to "No Notice". 3) However, on library CFCE and patron type LIB-S I have Delays set to 6,7,8 (days) on and Letters 1,2,3 set to "Overdue notice" (code is ODUE). Then I open PuTTY and run the 2 perl scripts listed in the nightly crontab: 1) perl -I /usr/share/koha/lib /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/overdue_notices.pl -t 2) perl -I /usr/share/koha/lib /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/process_message_queue.pl Overdue_notices.pl output looks pretty odd, and indicated 'returns 0 rows ... at line 370' on all passes. Anyway, no e-mails received! I ran this yesterday (28-Dec) and would have expected notices on items due 20,21 and 22-Dec because of Delay settings 6,7,8 days. Any comments would be greatly appreciated. Take care, Nelson implementing a union catalogue in Cape Town, South Africa. ----- Nelson Fredsell nelsonf on Koha IRC implementing a small, non-profit union catalogue in Cape Town, South Africa -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/overdue-e-mail-notice-triggers-tp26961217p26961217.ht… Sent from the Koha - Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Any guides to working with CatExpress subscription service?
by Steven Owley 30 Dec '09

30 Dec '09

Hi everyone, Cataloging newbie here. Please excuse the elementary nature of this question. My client is using Koha, would like to start using OCLC's CatExpress subscription service (which downloads the records the next day). Are there any guides to setting up Koha to work with these CatExpress files, and/or workflow examples, out there? I am especially concerned with getting the 856 URI properly handled. Thanks, Steve

Task scheduler

Tēna koutou Did anyone have any luck with the task scheduler? I know Nicole was looking for success stories. I would sorely like to use it but have so far only got the old "Failed to add scheduled task" line.
