by kenneth rotich 19 Nov '07

19 Nov '07

we have successfully intalled koha for windows 2.2.8 and we are currently testing and customizing to fit our needs. we have generated some barcodes using the normal printer but these barcodes cannot be read by the barcode reader. Do we have to use special printer to print barcodes? please help. thanks ken rotich kenrotich2003(a)yahoo.com --------------------------------- Be a better pen pal.

I'm no perl-professional at all. I just managed to have koha running on sarge and wanted to have it on an updated etch. But I'm stuck and it seems that nobody is able to tell something about this ... Today I removed most of the perl-packages did a rm /usr/local/share/perl -r and started the install-process of koha all over again (following the guidelines for sarge). -> same result. I confess that I'm lost. Beda

Question about duplication
by Lenora Oftedahl 18 Nov '07

18 Nov '07

Am I right in thinking that the bulkmarcimport looks at ISBN first for duplication and then title if ISBN is absent? So if all my records have a unique ISBN the import won't cough up on duplicate titles? Thanx. Lenora -- *************************************** Lenora A.

17 Nov '07

Hello all! Is there a download yet for Koha 3 Beta? We have tried installing 2.8 here and are having trouble with the style sheets working with MySql4x ... they worked with MySql5 but we went down to version 4x as there were other bugs that surfaced using MySql5. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. We are running under windows...is the unix install more stable? Jaye Jaye B.

Thanks, Mason - that cracked it - it was a path problem, so a couple of soft links seems to have solved it. Got the install done, although I'm not seeing the koha page on port 80 yet. Still, one day, eh? Thanks again for your patience with a newbie :-) Regards, Alan Alan MacLennan Lecturer/Course Leader Aberdeen Business School Robert Gordon University Garthdee Rd, Aberdeen AB10 7QE T: 01224 263910 F: 01224 263553 E: a.maclennan(a)rgu.ac.uk

New Koha User questions
by yared berhanu 16 Nov '07

16 Nov '07

Greetings, My name is Yared, I'm from Ethiopia, I want to use Koha for our University library information system. I have an idea about Linux and I want to install Koha on Linux. Q? On which Lunix distribution is Koha best for installation and Usage? What are the dependencies and from where could find them? only from the Internet or from the Installation CD of the Operating System? I saw From koha site and the information given is not that much on dependencies. From where can I find detail list of dependencies and detail installation steps? Thank you very much, I expect your immediate response. --------------------------------- Be a better pen pal. Text or chat with friends inside Yahoo! Mail. See how.

Overdue list
by root 16 Nov '07

16 Nov '07

Guys! We have been running v2.2.4 and the overdue report (overdue.pl) had several instances where just a due date and borrowers name is displayed (ie no title or author). This week we upgraded to v2.2.9 rather hoping that this problem might go away, but it hasn't. Checking the issues table, we see that for these offending items, the returndate, lastreneweddate, return and renewals fields are all NULL. If we delete the row from the issues table, then the lines are removed from the overdue report. We are reluctant to do this in case we break something. Does anyone know why we have these strange lines on the overdue report (ie what causes the problem) and how we can fix it? Apart from this annoyance, v2.2.9 is going swimmingly.
