Connecting KOHA patron information to website login
by Melanie Hedgespeth 15 Jul '09

15 Jul '09

Has anyone connected a website login to their patron database? We would like to allow users to log in to the website using their library card number as their user name and their password on the account as their password. I am putting together a joomla site: http://www.salpublib.org/connect/ I would like to see if there is a way to connect the login with the patron database which then would also allow users to utilize our databases, etc. Thanks.

Hi all, I am considering to use KOHA in a project, and on the list of features I did not see that you can generate a picture catalog of the items in the inventory. Can some explain if it can? Thanks, //Agron

Koha on Twitter
by Nicole Engard 15 Jul '09

15 Jul '09

I received an email asking me to take the reigns and create an account for Koha on Twitter. An account works - but a hastag is better. I have created both. You can follow the Koha ILS at www.twitter.com/kohails (I'm going to feed RSS feeds into this account) and you can tag your own posts with #koha the official Koha hashtag: http://tagal.us/tag/koha Hope that helps - off to find a service to feed rss feeds to twiter. --- Nicole C.

KOHA DBD error
by Sunita Barve 14 Jul '09

14 Jul '09

We have been running a koha workshop and we have selected to install Debian 5.0.1 lenny and on lenny we are selecting 3.00.03 version of koha. We are following exactly same processes as mentioned in INSTALL.Lenny file. We tried going down one step below version of koha or debian but still we are getting the following error. Can someone quickly help us to know what exactly to do to overcome this problem. We have also observed that on some machines installation goes smoothly but on other machines it gives following error. Koha error The following fatal error has occurred: DBD driver has not implemented the AutoCommit attribute at /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0/DBI.pm line 705.

Re: [Koha] Bookshelf feature
by Birmingham, David 14 Jul '09

Actually, I mistyped. The patch I submitted accounted for the case(s) when an item's location was undefined. If this was the case, the prior SQL would result in an empty set and nothing would show up in the shelf browser window. Clicking on either of the arrows would shut it back down. So maybe this patch isn't in your version of Koha?

Title Details on Admin Side
by Roche III, Edward 14 Jul '09

14 Jul '09

When I enable the Amazon Content feature and I search a title and look at it Title Details it gives me the following error: An Error has Occurred! Error 500 * In Koha this typically means that the Koha team is working on new features * Wait while system maintenance is being done or email the Koha Administrator <mailto:edward_roche@solanco.k12.pa.us> . * Use top menu bar to navigate to another part of Koha. I also get it in OPAC when I enable the OPACAmazonContent and OPACSimilarItems settings. Any thoughts? Thanks Ed Edward J.

Good Afternoon All Can someone tell me how the bookshelf feature is suppose to work? Whenever I select a title in OPAC at the bottom of the page it gives me a Left and Right arrow with the title in the middle but if I select one of the arrow the feature disappears? I think I get the idea of it but not sure if I need to set anything else up to have it work write. Thanks Ed Edward J.
