Moving to a newer server and OS
by Tim McMahon - West Liberty Public Library 05 Apr '08

05 Apr '08

We'd like to upgrade to Koha 3.0, but put it on a new server. Our current OS is Debian Sarge. The new server will need to run Etch because Sarge won't install on the new hardware. This also means we'll be switching from MySQL version 4 to 5. Is it possible to do a mysqldump on the old server and load the data on the new server, then install Koha 3 and do the updates? Is there anything I need to do to the database for the MySQL upgrade before I start the Koha updates? -- Tim McMahon Technical Services West Liberty Public Library 400 N.

Are you using Internet Explorer (instead of Mozilla Firefox)? If you are using Internet Explorer (IE), try to disable the "Show friendly HTTP error messages" option, to see if you can get a more detailed error message, besides "Internal Server Error". To disable that option, in Internet Explorer (I'm using IE 7 here, but I think that, if you use IE 6, the procedure is the similar or even the same): 1 - Go to the "Tools" menu, and select the "Internet Options" command (it's the last one). 2 - The "Internet Options" dialog box should open. Click on the "Advanced" tab (last one) 3 - Scroll down the "Settings" list (list of checkboxes), until you find the "Show friendly HTTP error messages" checkbox (it's the last checkbox before the "Underline links" radio buttons group). UNCHECK that "Show friendly HTTP error messages" checkbox! Then repeat the operation that previously gave you the "Internal Server Error" message and see if you get a more detailed error message. > I hope you can help me because I already some time on this and the truth > is not my idea because it will be. If you get (and report) a more detailed error message, maybe I or other people in the list can help you! :) Best wishes, Ricardo Dias Marques lists AT ricmarques DOT net

Announcing Koha 3.0 (Beta 2)
by Joshua Ferraro 04 Apr '08

04 Apr '08

Hi folks, Due to oversight on my part, there were a few template display issues with the Koha 3.00.00-beta release on March 23, 2008. I had also neglected to pre-install the available translations. Both these issues have been cleared up and are now available in a Koha 3.0 Beta 2 release. You can download from the usual location: http://download.koha.org/koha-3.00.00-beta2.tar.gz http://download.koha.org/koha-3.00.00-beta2.tar.gz.sig You can check the integrity of the package; either by verifying the provided GPG signature (.sig) or by comparing the MD5 checksum: e314123c824d37ca39b67436a2b0d874 koha-3.00.00-beta2.tar.gz I've also tagged this in Git as "version 3.00.00 beta2" v3.00.00-beta2 The release notes for this beta2 version haven't changed from the last one, so I won't reproduce them here.

Self check?
by ed c 04 Apr '08

04 Apr '08

Is anyone using Koha with a selfcheck machine such as those provided by 3M? If so, which ones are you using? I guess I should also ask if Koha can be used with one of these machines :-). Can it?

My Overdue Items Report is adding extra names
by Amber 02 Apr '08

02 Apr '08

My overdue items report shows a lot of extra names of people who don't have any overdue books. There are over 30 names of people who don't have overdue books listed. Some of the names are repeated three or four times. Has anyone else had this problem? Do you know how to fix it? Thanks!

Re: [Koha] Setting Biblio Data Parameters
by Jennifer Johnston 02 Apr '08

Hi Karina, I'm about where you are in setting up 2.2.9. The Authorized Values are basically a menu of terms provided for the cataloger. You create them in the "Authorized Values" admin page (under Parameters) -- just click "add category" to get started. For instance, I've created one for the 952 1 field for Lost items (titled "LOST"), and added "Lost" and "Missing," so that the cataloger can't just type anything in. And another category for the 952 2 field (titled "SCHEME"), for which classification system used: our home system, or Lib of Congress....they're going to be different from your thesaurus. I had to re-read the section in the Users Guide several times to get this, and just played around with it until it made sense, so just be patient! Best, Jennifer >>> "Karina Tumon" <karinatumon(a)den.org.au> 4/1/2008 5:46 PM >>> Thanks Homero, As for the Authorised Value, is that the same as creating a MARC Authority Record? Do I set that up in the Thesaurus Structure or Authorised Values? Excuse my ignorance but I just dont know what to put where. Surely, Ill stumble into it somewhere somehow (??).
