Re: [Koha] what kind of format marc import

Wednesday, May 9, 2007 16:28 CDT Hi, Robin, I am sorry for being rude, but I am very busy just now so this answer is less complete than what I would normally give ... What you have given us as an example below is NOT true MARC format. Before the registry, the Leader must be present or the data will not begin to compile properly into a matrix. There is something wrong with the Leader information in your records as it is almost impossible to have that many zeroes before the 4500 sequence that marks the beginning of the registry. There should be some blanks and/or possibly letters, something like this, say: #####nam||2200|a|4500####<--the numbers of the registry---->#### Also, please note there is usually something odd with ISIS data in that the MARC21 subfields are not being used correctly. For example, in what you provided us as an example, the 245 $b is missing for the subtitle. I think that someone has written in the past about migrating data from ISIS databases (IIRC there was some kind of transformation needed first). Have you checked the KohaDocs page at <http://www.kohadocs.org>? Perhaps there is something helpful there? I am sorry for not having a full answer or solution for you now. If I have more time tomorrow, I shall think on it further. In the meantime, good luck. Somebody else on the list will surely have something useful to contribute. Cheers, Steven F.

Hi all, I see that 2.2.9 has been released, so we'll be moving to this version from 2.2.5, thanks Paul! One other problem we have is that one of our branches cannot see their expired items. Would this be fixed as a result of the update in 2.2.9? * fixed a SQL typo in overdues fixing on return (database was not properly updated) Thanks, Greg

Apache on Debian downloading .pl files.
by Matt 08 May '07

08 May '07

Hello, This is my first post to this mailing list so bare with me if I'm breaking some protocol. I'm hoping that someone will be able to help me. I just did a bunch of updates to my Debian server and it seems to have broken Koha. I spent all day yesterday trying to figure this out and I seem to be stuck. Whatever page you try to visit on any computer here it tries to download the .pl file instead of executing it on the server end. Started by looking through logs and it didn't show anything suspicious. Thought maybe it was AddHandler in the apache.conf file so I changed it from: AddHandler cgi-script .cgi to: AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl Did nothing different. If I rename the mainpage.pl file to mainpage.cgi and point directly to it in my browser it loads perfectly fine. I can even log in but of course once I try to click a link in the menu I get the browser trying to download that file. There is no way I am going through the whole source to rename everything from .pl to .cgi. A friend of mine suggested I try to get the the page through telnet: telnet localhost 8080 >GET /cgi-bin/koha/mainpage.pl HTTP/1.1 >Host: mymachinename.mydomain > >HTTP/1.1 200 OK >Date: Tue, 08 May 2007 12:58:21 GMT >Server: Apache/2.2.3 (Debian) PHP/4.4.4-8+etch2 >Transfer-Encoding: chunked >Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 > >2f2 ><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"> followed by the rest of the content of the page in html form. BTW I can load the site up perfectly fine in 'links2' in the command line. This is the point that I remind everyone that through the browser (Updated Firefox on Ubuntu, Firefox on Windows, IE on Windows) I get the perl code not it trying to download html as a file. It does bother me that there is no DOCTYPE but that shouldn't be the issue. Other things I've tried... http://myserver:8080/cgi-bin/koha/mainpage.pl?.cgi http://myserver:8080/cgi-bin/koha/mainpage.pl?.html Both show the page properly. I'm torn between if this a browser issue or an Apache issue but either way it's not right. Anyone have any suggestions on what I can do? What else to try? Any more info anyone needs? etc. Any help with this is much appreciated, it's driving me insane. Matt __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Call numbers for biblios
by Kevin O'Rourke 08 May '07

08 May '07

Hi, Our librarians are complaining that when they look up a book in the catalog (using the intranet interface) the call number is not shown. We're using the Dewey Decimal Codes as call numbers, with the itemcallnumber parameter set to 082a so when a new item is added the k subfield for that item has the Dewey filled in automatically. These item k field entries show up in the location column in the catalogue. What do I have to do to get the Dewey showing in the call number column (for the biblio, not just items)? All items belonging to a given biblio have the same call number in our library. There seem to be some things that are relevant in the MARC links for biblioitems but I don't want to play around with that in case I break something. Is there a link that I can point to 082a to just use the Dewey Decimal Code as the call number? Kevin -- Kevin O'Rourke ICT Coordinator, National Teachers' Institute, Kaduna, Nigeria 062 316972
