Ubuntu 8.04 and Koha 3
by Chadwick, John, DCA 21 Apr '08

21 Apr '08

I have noticed that Ubuntu 8.04 LTS - desktop and server - is set for release later this week. We are currently running Ubuntu 7.10. Does anyone have any thoughts on how well Koha 3 would (or would not) work with Ubuntu 8.04?

Re: [Koha] [Koha-devel] circulation rules and renewal periods
by Jesse 21 Apr '08

To the best of my knowledge, renewals are defined per itemtype in Koha 2.2.9 and 3b2. There isn't a way to define them per borrower category. -- Jesse

Bad index while coercing array into hash
by George Adams 18 Apr '08

18 Apr '08

(Gentoo Linux 2.6.24, Apache 2.0.61, MySQL 5.0.56, Perl 5.8.8) Hi, all. Having upgraded my Koha with the one-line fix that was the source of my last problem, I'm now having this problem: When I try to add a new biblio, I get this immediately after clicking "Save": ------------------------------- The following fatal error has occurred: Bad index while coercing array into hash at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Biblio.pm line 2267. Apache Server version: Apache/2.0.61 Server built: Dec 5 2007 16:53:30 Koha 3.00.00.069 Koha DB 3.0000069 MySQL mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.56, for pc-linux-gnu (i686) using readline 5.2 OS Linux www 2.6.24-gentoo-r5 #1 SMP Wed Apr 9 22:16:10 EDT 2008 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux Perl 5.008008 ------------------------------- This is a Koha snapshot as of last night. I didn't see any obvious changes in Biblio.pm or addbiblio.pl that would account for this error. Does anyone have any ideas what the problem here might be? Thanks to anyone who can help!

Re: [Koha] Error msg re K3 Beta: Itemtype icon nondisplay in OPAC?
by carpentercarselibrary＠gmavt.net 18 Apr '08

18 Apr '08

I found multiples of this message: opac-detail.pl: PARAM:LOOP:next_loop:hash pointer was expected but not found at /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.8/HTML/Template/Pro.pm line 191. in my apache2 error.log after searching and displaying in the OPAC. Could this be related to my failure of itemtype images to display? Thanks for any leads! Richard Pritsky Carpenter-Carse Library PO BOX 127 Hinesburg, VT 05461 802-482-2878 www.carpentercarse.org

What happened to my database?
by George Adams 18 Apr '08

18 Apr '08

Hi, all. I've upgraded from Koha 3 alpha to the beta, which in the process upgraded the database from 3.0000052 to 3.0000067. Everything has been fine up till now - searching for records works fine, check-in and check-out is fine, etc. But today, I noticed that when I tried to update an item in the catalog (the first time I'd tried it since the upgrade), the resulting entry was a mess. To boil the problem down to its essence, look at this: Here is the MARC entry for our "HOW SHOULD WE THEN LIVE" DVD 000: 02065nam a22002297a 4500 001: 003: OSt 005: 20080402003158.0 006: 007: 008: 080402t xxu||||| |||| 00| 0 eng d 040 c: DSW 100 a: Schaeffer, Dr. Francis 245 a: How Should We Then Live? 260 b: Gospel Films c: 1961 300 a: 10 episodes on 2 DVDs - 6 hours total 500 a: Dr. Schaeffer's sweeping epic on the rise and decline of ... 520 a: After 40 years of intense study and world-wide ministry, ... 650 a: History 942 2: ddc c: DVD ------------------------------------------------- Now I do the following steps: - Go to the Cataloguing page, find the "Chariots of Fire" entry, and click "Edit Biblio" - On the next page ("Edit MARC Record Number 35..."), I make no changes, but simply hit the "Save" button. That's all. And here is the MARC record that is stored as a result: ------------------------------------------------- 000: 02380nam a22004937a 4500 001: 003: OSt 005: 20080402003158.0 006: 007: 008: 080402t xxu||||| |||| 00| 0 eng d 040 c: DSW 100 a: 4 110 a: b 111 a: c 130 a: l 245 a: How Should We Then Live? 260 b: Gospel Films c: 1961 300 a: 10 episodes on 2 DVDs - 6 hours total 440 a: n 500 a: Dr. Schaeffer's sweeping epic on the rise and decline of ... 520 a: After 40 years of intense study and world-wide ministry, ... 600 a: b 610 a: b 611 a: c 630 a: e 648 a: v 650 a: History 651 a: e 654 a: b 655 a: b 662 a: b 690 a: b 700 a: b 710 a: b 711 a: c 730 a: l 800 a: b 810 a: b 811 a: c 830 a: l 942 2: ddc c: DVD ------------------------------------------------- As you can see, a lot of MARC fields have been added that I hadn't used before (or needed). But even worse, some of the correct fields have been replaced with incorrect data. For instance 100a has changed from "Schaeffer, Dr. Francis" to "4". Can anyone tell me what's going on? As it stands right now, I am completely unable to make any changes to existing biblio items without the record becoming corrupt. And I also noticed that if I try to enter a new Biblio, certain fields like 100a (Personal Name) are greyed-out (i.e. disabled), so I can't create proper new records either. Please help! And thank you!

innovative libraries
by Bill Flist 18 Apr '08

18 Apr '08

Hello! I'm at an innovative library and I will be lurking on the list. I'm not actively thinking about switching now - but want to explore my options for down the road (2-3 yrs.) Also - due to this being an open list, and realizing that the vendors themselves might also be on here, I'm using an assumed name so my library (public U.S. based) is not identified. That being said - I'm curious about if any libraries have yet migrated from III? Cheers, B
