OT: Surveys
by Nicole Engard 12 Jul '09

12 Jul '09

Hi all, A bit of an off topic email because I have something awesome to share. As you know I'm working on a survey, what you might not know is that I'm using an open source survey app to collect data. I know a lot of you do research sometimes, so I wanted you to know that I am using LimeSurvey (limesurvey.org) and it's awesome, open source, and runs on your server (versus other popular options). Next time you do a survey give it a whirl. --- Nicole C.

by Lee Phillips 11 Jul '09

11 Jul '09

Hello all I am scheduled to talk about our migration with Koha and LibLime as well as open source cms (plone and wp) on Aug 6th at 8 AM at PNLA. I would like to invite anyone planningon attending (or dropping in) who would like to join me for a panel discussion of open source ILS and other applications to contact me. The panel format really encourages "open" exchanges and I hope there are a few of you out there in Koha land who would be willing to spend an hour and a half answering questions. The conference is in Missoula MT this year and it is their 100 year celebration. If you are interested in sharing your experiences please contact me ASAP so we can collaborate on content. Lenora, are you still interested? Best Lee

Error in koha installation
by Sivasankari Muthuraja 11 Jul '09

11 Jul '09

Hi, I'm a newbie to koha. I tried to install koha in fedora10 linux. and had installed the koha with pre-requisites of essential perl modules,UTF-8 charset in mysql. I haven't installed Zebra, Yaz, since i'm not going to test with huge data contents. i followed INSTALL.fedora7 available in the koha-3.00.03 version tar file extracted. I couldnot understand sec 4.4 loading data for tests. Installer document says to add Listen 8080 in the etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file. Since Apache tomcat server is configured for 8080, i haven't added the line in the httpd.conf file. When i launch the http::<ipadress of my intranet>:80/ - I get the error mentioned below. - ==== Screen output ==== Koha error The following fatal error has occurred: Can't locate ZOOM.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/share/koha/lib /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5/5.10.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Context.pm line 85.

Dear all, At the moment the users account on koha.org, the wiki and the bug tracking system are distinct. Would it be possible to have only one user account database which would then be used for all the parts of the Koha website ? What do you althink about it ? Cheers, Sébastien.
