Hello Since I have done a bulkmarcimport searching isn't possible anymore. I allways get: Can't call method "as_usmarc" on an undefined value at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Search.pm line 2106. You can test it yourself on http://bibliothek.ksobwalden.ch Koha 3.0beta1 koha-opac-error_log tells me: http://bibliothek.ksobwalden.ch/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=werke koha@web-kso1:~$ What's wrong?

Koha 2.2.9, Unicode (UTF-8), Latin-1 (ISO-8859-1) and migration to Koha 3
by Ricardo Dias Marques 25 Apr '08

25 Apr '08

Hi list, I have a Koha 2.2.9 system running on a machine with SLES 9 (SUSE Linux Enterpise Server) with SP3 (Service Pack 3), running Apache 2.2.0 and MySQL 4.0.18 I'm now considering migrating it to another machine that will run Koha 3 Beta 2, on a server with SLES 10 with SP1 (Service Pack 1), running Apache 2.2.4 and MySQL 5.0.26 I have done a mysqldump of the koha database in the Koha 2.2.9 system. Unfortunately, I found out that the dump has mixed character encodings, namely that some characters are in Unicode ("UTF-8") and others are in Latin-1 ("ISO 8859-1" and/or "ISO-8859-15"). I am Portuguese (living in Portugal), so the "problematic" characters are the Portuguese accented characters ("ã" - a tilde; "ç" - c cedilla; "é" - e acute; and other characters with accents). This leads to my first question: 1 - Should a Koha 2.2.9 system be preferably set up for Unicode ("UTF-8") or Latin-1 ("ISO-8859-1" / "ISO 8859-15")? By reading the following page: Encoding and Character Sets in Koha http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=encodingscratchpad ... and namely, the first version of that page - http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=encodingscratchpad&rev=1152103445 - it seems that for versions of Koha >= 2.2.6, I should set up the "locale", Apache and MySQL for Unicode ("UTF-8"). Is this correct? My next question is this one: 2 - What is the "best" way to convert this "mixed" mysqldump (UTF-8 / ISO-8859-1) file to a "pure" UTF-8 one (or to a "pure" Latin-1 one)? I have already found out these pages, but would appreciate feedback from fellow Koha users that already had this problem: How to sanitize a string with mixed encodings - UTF-8 and Latin1 http://www.fischerlaender.net/php/sanitize-utf8-latin1 Encoding issues MySql Latin / UTF-8 http://www.vlugge.eu/blog/algemeen/encoding-issues-mysql-latin-utf-8/ Mixed ISO-8859/UTF-8 conversion http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=642617 And now, the "main question": 3 - Is the best migration strategy, the following sequence: 3.1. - "Transform" the mysqldump to a "pure" UTF-8 file 3.2. - Install Koha 2.2.9 on the "second" machine (running SLES 10) 3.3 - Import the mysqldump on the "second" machine 3.4 - Install Koha 3 Beta 2 on the "second" machine 3.5 - Follow the steps described at: Upgrading from Koha 2.2 to Koha 3.0 http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=22_to_30 ... or is there an easier / better way to do this? Thanks for taking the time to read this! ANY help / information / feedback would be much appreciated! :) Best wishes, Ricardo Dias Marques lists AT ricmarques DOT net

Koha3 Beta2 - rebuild_zebra.pl error: Can't locate C4/Context.pm
by Meiling Li 24 Apr '08

24 Apr '08

I managed to get Koha3 Beta2 installed on a box with Debain etch 4. I've followed the instructions in INSTALL.debian but hit a snag when I got to the point of doing import and fast-index marc records (which I had no problem on a prior box running Koha3 Beta[1]). > 7.1 Import: > $ misc/migration-tools/bulkmarcimport.pl -file /path/to/marc.iso2709 > 7.2 Fast Index: > $ misc/migration-tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -w The import part seemed to go fine but I got an error when rebuilding the zebra index: kohaadmin@kohabeta2:/usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools$ export KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/koha-conf.xml kohaadmin@kohabeta2:/usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools$ ./rebuild_zebra.pl -w -b Can't locate C4/Context.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.8 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8 /usr/share/perl/5.8 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at ./rebuild_zebra.pl line 5. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./rebuild_zebra.pl line 5. On the other box running beta1 I was able to run the same script with no problem. Any suggestion on how I can resolve this? I did verify Context.pm exists as follows: kohabeta2:/usr/share/koha/lib/C4# ls -l Conte* -r--r--r-- 1 kohaadmin kohaadmin 38214 2008-04-22 16:10 Context.pm Thanks. ****************************************** Meiling Li LA Law Library Senior Database Administrator Los Angeles County Law Library mli(a)lalawlibrary.org ******************************************

Changing Koha Ports
by Ryan 24 Apr '08

24 Apr '08

I have been doing some research on koha and we have decided that we want to bring koha to our library system on one condition koha's opac must work on ports other than 80. If this can be done I will put it into my library network.

Re: [Koha] How to add item number in over due reports
by thandu venkat narayana 24 Apr '08

24 Apr '08

Dear All, It is the very important to all, Because when we take reports the statements are giving due data, name of the patron, patron phone number and title information (biblio information) But there is no particulars of the item. The same biblio or title ( if more items ) may issued to more patrons. How we recognise which item was issued to a particular patron. There is a chance to identify the item details issued to a particular patron in opac user login. pl help in modify the report with item number Thanks Venkat Narayana, Thandu Did you know? You can CHAT without downloading messenger. Go to http://in.messenger.yahoo.com/webmessengerpromo.php/

display of call number, shelving location on OPAC search result
by Pseudo Admin 24 Apr '08

24 Apr '08

I have been trying to display the call number and shelving location on our OPAC search result. So far without success and Googling it did not help either. I have configured on the Administration | System Preferences | Searching | * OPACItemsResultsDisplay *itemdisplay : show full location of items (branch+location+callnumber) as in staff interface but it seems this change does not have any effect on the Normal View search display, it only show Item Type, Status, Last Seen, Location has a column but no entry, call number nor branch do not have any column at all On the staff client interface I can see the Location, branch with the other details and there is a column for Collection and call number but no entry However, on MARC view Call Number and Shelving Location is shown with their corresponding MARC tags What steps have I missed? What other parameters should I set? Mon
