Fallout from DBMS Auto Increment Bug
by Charles Kelley 15 Mar '22

15 Mar '22

It looks like my library was hit by the auto increment bug. Yesterday, we implemented the Koha temporary fix on < https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/DBMS_auto_increment_fix>. In addition to the Koha bug fix, we added the suggestions from the Open School Solutions < https://medium.com/@OpenSchoolZ/how-to-fix-the-koha-auto-increment-problem-… >. To our surprise, it worked. Everything worked, in fact. We even reindexed the catalog (koha-elasticsearch --rebuild -d -v {library_instance}). So we began testing the catalog again. In the course of our testing, we got an internal server error. As far as we can tell, the error occurred when we were working on both a cataloging record and an authority record. Then the cataloger saved the edits of the cataloging record. The cataloging record included a ‡9 link to the authority record, but Koha had not quite finished indexing the authority record. Since then, every attempt to reboot the server, restart MariaDB, run the DBMS auto increment fix -- yes, it's already in the boot-up routines -- reindex the catalog through koha-elasticsearch has failed. When we read the Server Information tab under About Koha, we read this little gem: ElasticSearch: Nodes: localhost:9200 | Status: running | Indices: koha_asdlib_biblios (count: 10000), koha_asdlib_authorities (count: 0) We can find only a few records in the catalog and no records in the authority headings. What's worse is that when I query MariaDB directly on the server, it tells me MAX (biblionumber) = 19276 MAX (authid) = 14373 Can someone tell us why MariaDB can get accurate counts, but ElasticSearch cannot? I am also perplexed that koha-elasticsearch cannot resolve host {library} and then proceeds to reindex the catalog. An insight into this would also be helpful. We'll probably back up to the last version of the catalog before the bugs began affecting it and then upload the changes anew. (At least, we can still download the bibliographic and authority records intact whether or not ElasticSearch can index them properly.) Many thanks.

Fine issue in branch libraries.
by Arshad Iqbal 14 Mar '22

14 Mar '22

Greetings to all. I am using koha 20.05. I am working on a multi branch library environment. In one of the branch libraries I have implemented a fine policy but in others branches I have not applied that fine policy. I am facing this issue. If the patron of the respective library where a fine policy is implemented checks the library material from other libraries, he has to pay a fine for other library books. Is there any solution to this issue??? -- Best Regards *Muhammad Arshad Iqbal* *Assistant Librarian* *NUST Central Library * *National University of Science and Technology (NUST)* *Sector H-12, Islamabad, Pakistan* *Tel.

ElasticsearchCrossFields enabled returns no search results on OPAC
by Aleisha Amohia 13 Mar '22

13 Mar '22

Hi all, ElasticsearchCrossFields is a great syspref to enable if you need to search across indexes, for example your search term includes both title and author keywords. We've discovered this only works on the staff client, and returns no results when searching on the OPAC. After some investigation, this is because the OPAC will add a `suppress:false` to the search query, to hide records that are suppressed in OPAC. I'm not sure why, but this combination of suppress:false and ElasticsearchCrossFields means no results are returned in the OPAC. Has anyone seen this before or know a fix, or why it happens? I've reported this bug: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=30141 -- Aleisha Amohia (she/her) Koha Developer Catalyst IT - Expert Open Source Solutions www.catalyst.net.nz CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This email is intended for the named recipients only.
