Barcode generation in Koha
by S P Suresh 06 Aug '07

06 Aug '07

Hi, When we try to generate barcodes using Koha, the browser just opens an empty window titled barcodesGenerator.pl. Can some of the experts figure out why it is happening? Maybe we have configured some things wrongly. We are running Koha 2.2.9 on Debian Linux. We have not set up the printer paths yet in Koha. Should it matter? Because the user guide says that Koha will generate a pdf file, which we can print later. Another problem that I haven't been able to get over -- how does one get to see the list of books catalogued in the library so far? Our librarian hasn't got a hang of the Reports module yet. Is there any documentation on-line that we can use? Thanks in advance for the help. Cheers, Suresh S P Suresh Chennai Mathematical Institute India

Hey, I know 2.2.9 isn't supported on Debian Etch yet but I thought I'd try. Errors and failiure to make when I install Net::Z3950::ZOOM. The screen results and "make failure" appear below.

Koha installation on Fedora 7 -- questions
by Dwayne Collins 03 Aug '07

03 Aug '07

Hello Folks, I'm relatively new to working with both Koha and Linux, but I have a question or two that I am hoping people can answer: 8 months ago we set up a Koha 2.2.7 server on Fedora Core 3 and it was working wonderfully until the hard drive dropped out on us. We're now looking at replacing the HD and having to do a fresh install from scratch (although we luckily have the mySQL databases backed up). What I'm hoping to do is install Koha 2.2.9 on Fedora 7 but I have to know a few things first: I cannot tell what version of mySQL is included with Fedora 7 (if any), but I have a sneaking suspicion that it's version 5 which doesn't work with Koha - should I use an earlier version of Fedora, or should I try to downgrade the mySQL version (and does anyone know how that's done)? Also, does anyone know of any troubles I might run into by using the restoration method listed at http://www.kohadocs.org/Backups_and_Restoring.html considering that I'll be restoring into a different version of Koha (2.2.9 instead of 2.2.7)? Any advice on getting through this so we can get our system back online would greatly appreciated. Cheers, Dwayne

Salvete! I used to have a big old chart in my Newbie Guide for what I had linked to what else. That seems to have disappeared. >itemnum >The field itemnum MUST be mapped >The correspounding subfield MUST be in with -1 (ignore) tab >OK All item fields are in the same tag and in item tab >OK itemtypes table filled with at least 1 value Go to Parameters, Links Koha MARC DB Drop the menu down to items Where it says itemnumber click the little folder and set it to 952u if you want to copy off of me.. > >itemtype NOT mapped the biblioitems.itemtype field MUST : >be mapped to a MARC subfield, >the correspounding subfield MUST have authorised_value=itemtype >OK branch table filled with at least 1 value Same general place, only switch the drop down to biblioitems and make sure that itemtype is mapped. I have it hooked into 300f. > >homebranch NOT mapped the items.homebranch field MUST : >be mapped to a MARC subfield, >the correspounding subfield MUST have authorised value=branches > Home branch is in the items dropdown, which I've mapped to 952b >holdingbranch NOT mapped the items.holdingbranch field MUST : >be mapped to a MARC subfield, >the correspounding subfield MUST have authorised value=branches > Holding branch is in the exact same place and I've it mapped to 952d >biblio and biblionumber The biblio.biblionumber and >biblioitems.biblioitemnumber fields MUST : My biblioitemnumber is associated with 090 d. Hope this helps, Brooke @ Hinsdale MA

Hello, in biblio framework is it possible to copy the MARC structure of the default framework to a new framework? I did a lot of changes in the default structure. Now I want to copy it and modify it for different items.
