Re: [Koha] cron job error message

I think it is just syntax. The trailing ">" attempts redirection to something unspecified. Remove it and try again. Otherwise, please specify OS and cron version. --joe On Jul 18, 2009 5:43 PM, "Carol McGeehon" <clmcgeeh(a)co.douglas.or.us> wrote: I have a test installation of Koha which I’m trying to set up.

Configuring Zebra
by Paul Yachnes 18 Jul '09

18 Jul '09

When I try to run the line $ sudo update-rc.d koha-zebra-daemon defaults I get: update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon: file does not exist yet I can see the file does indeed exist in that directory. What do I do? Paul

Is this a problem?
by Paul Yachnes 18 Jul '09

18 Jul '09

At the very end of a Koha install (git install on Ubuntu 9.04), I got the following text: chown: invalid user: 'koha:koha' make: *** [set_koha_ownsership] Error 1 I'm not sure what this is telling me or if this is a problem. Do I need to fix something or is it ok to proceed? Paul

Overdue notices
by Cab Vinton 17 Jul '09

17 Jul '09

Is it correct to assume that Overdue notices are only sent to Home email addresses (borrowers.email)? Some patrons provide both a home & a work email (borrowers.emailpro). Ideally, the Patron DB would be setup to allow staff to specify the default email address to be used for notices. Otherwise, Koha should send notices to any available address (work if no home address available, & vice versa.) At present, I believe we would have to copy work addresses into empty home address fields to ensure that Notices are sent out. Thank you, Cab Vinton, Director Sanbornton Public Library Sanbornton, NH

Re: [Koha] Request advice on setting up Z39.50 for catalogers
by BWS Johnson 17 Jul '09

Salvete! I agree that AMICUS records are high in quality and very easy to access via z39.50. I was so fond of the quality of their MARC records, that I chose to use AMICUS as an example rather than LOC when I authored one of my tutorials. http://www.pakban.net/brooke/tut/rev.html The one that I screenshotted for the tutorial has no French in it, though it would be worth checking other records if you're that concerned. Cheers, Brooke
