Translation problems ...
by Unni Knutsen 29 Jun '08

29 Jun '08

We are currently translating Koha 3.0 into Norwegian. We are nearly finished, but there are a couple of things that we are not able to solve: When searching for a patron in Staff, a table is shown with (among other things) a heading "OD/issues". What does OD mean???? Another problem that we have is the list of patron types. When creating a new patron there is a pull down menue which shows you some options. What is a "Professional Patron". It is evidently different from Staff and Organisation, but we just can't figure it out. I hope someone out there can help us!

Librarian Privileges
by Gautam John 29 Jun '08

29 Jun '08

Hi, How does one tie a librarians user ID to a specific library within Koha? As it stands, if I create a librarian ID, they can choose which library they want to manage. However, is there a way to tie the ID to a specific library such that they have access to the patrons and books within that library only? Thank you.

RFC for 3.2: Move items data from 952 to 949 by default
by Joshua Ferraro 27 Jun '08

27 Jun '08

Hi folks, It's recently come to my attention that many ILSes store their items data in a 949 tag by default. Thusfar, we've stuck with the historical convention of 952 (which was our version of a 'localized' 852). 852, in the MARC21 standard, is reserved for 'holdings' data (holdings data is separate from items data, and there will be a future RFC addressing how Koha should handle holdings data). As Koha popularity expands, we should consider switching to the 'de facto' standard for items data (949). The need was brought to my attention recently on an OCLC list where it was discovered that OCLC uses 952 for internal codes, and therefore, it can't be exported. So libraries using OCLC for cataloging, who want to manually add their items data to their records, download them from OCLC, and them upload into Koha, will have to use another tag for items data. I'm thinking this would primarily consist of: 1. updating the default frameworks for MARC21 (UNIMARC too?) 2. updating the XSL stylesheets for MARC21 3. creating a script that moves stuff from 952 into 949 Thoughts?

Spam in logs

All, I am working with Koha 2.2.7 (trying to get 3 going!) and I have had problems with the computer crashing lately. (It's on a poor machine) But in my kohalogs, I have found some spam such as: [Wed Jun 25 06:49:57 2008] [error] [client 91.151.224.21] Q2 : select distinct m1.bibid from biblio,biblioitems,marc_biblio,marc_word as m1,marc_subfield_table as m2,marc_subfield_table as m3,marc_subfield_table as m4,marc_subfield_table as m5,marc_subfield_table as m6,marc_subfield_table as m7,marc_subfield_table as m8,marc_subfield_table as m9 where biblio.biblionumber=marc_biblio.biblionumber and biblio.biblionumber=biblioitems.biblionumber and m1.bibid=marc_biblio.bibid and (m1.bibid=m2.bibid and m1.bibid=m3.bibid and m1.bibid=m4.bibid and m1.bibid=m5.bibid and m1.bibid=m6.bibid and m1.bibid=m7.bibid and m1.bibid=m8.bibid and m1.bibid=m9.bibid) and ((m1.word like 'RESM') (m2.subfieldvalue 'RES') (m3.subfieldvalue 'http://freedeliverypillz.bravehost.com/freedeliverypillz.html free delivery pillz\\r\\n<a href=\\"http://freedeliverypillz.bravehost.com/freedeliverypillz.html\\">fre e delivery This URL is repeated lots of times in the same error message, and afterwards the system does a separate search for each url in my catalog, and eventually crashes the machine.

Just through the apache server with mod_security? Do I have to worry about somebody messing up my database?
