MARC Import
by Wolfgang Koller 16 Sep '09

16 Sep '09

Hi all! We are currently looking into importing our ISIS dataset into koha. However, the ISIS database was designed using non-standard conventions fo the MARC21 fields, so we need a "conversion" first. I found out that Koha supports exporting the data into custom MARC formats, ist this also supported for importing (so e.g. can I create a definition of my format and import then directly into Koha)? Thanks for any answers, Wolfgang

[Fwd: ISBD Format]
by Nadel Catura 16 Sep '09

16 Sep '09

Oh, i forgot to attach the image file. Anyway, here it is. ---------------------------- Original Message ---------------------------- Subject: ISBD Format From: "Nadel Catura" <caturan(a)canlubang.dlsu.edu.ph> Date: Wed, September 16, 2009 12:36 pm To: Koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz -------------------------------------------------------------------------- In tutorials, we have read that the ISBD format can be customized, (i mean, can be organized in order of preference) by editing the ISBD preferences. However, is this "reordering" capability is only available un Left Aligned format? Our library hopes to make it more like the card catalog. Where the call number is on the upper leftmost side of the card, and the other biblio is horizontally adjacent to the call number. (see attached image) to see what i mean :) Is it possible to edit the ISBD preference to make it more like the card catalog? If so, is there an available code that we can just copy? If not, is there a module in the system that creates a card catalog? Thanks very much in advance! Have a nice day.

Koha error diagnosed, new question
by Chadwick, John, DCA 15 Sep '09

15 Sep '09

Okay, I diagnosed the cause of the error, but now I have a new question. In the koha-conf.xml file I commented out the last two lines concerning the memory caching, memcached_servers and memcached_namespace. That took care of the issue concerning being able to go to the web installer via the full url and getting the fatal error message when I use the just localhost:8080. Now, the question is, how important, or unimportant, is the memcached commands? Thanks, John +----------------------------------------------------------------------- -----+ John Chadwick, Ed.D.

We are finally staging our production server that will house a couple of Koha sites to begin with using apache virtual hosting. I downloaded and install the latest version from the git repository and I have done a clean install. I am now getting something a bit strange and any help would be appreciated. When I use the following URL, we get to the Installer with no problem: http://localhost/cgi-bin/koha/installer/install.pl However, when we use the standard http://localhost:8080 <http://localhost:8080/> I get the following: production mode - trapped fatal error +----------------------------------------------------------------------- -----+ John Chadwick, Ed.D.
