classification and MARC links
by Jason Ronallo 22 Jan '07

22 Jan '07

Hi, I'm trying to set up MARC links and MARC structure. Before making changes to what the defaults are, I'm trying to see how those defaults would meet our needs. We do not have a pre-existing database so have some flexibility. I will be using call numbers like the following on my spine labels. Since we have a small collection, many times we will not be using any numbers after the decimal or only a few in areas where our collection is strongest, so we use the first 3 letters of the main entry at the end of the call number (usually authors last name, sometimes title main entry). REF 023 .3 RON The defaults in Koha are: biblioitems.classification 942j Location (call number prefix code) biblioitems.dewey 942k Classification base (DDC to decimal or LCC letter class padded after single lett biblioitems.subclass 942l Classification subclass (DDC after decimal or LCC number after letters items.itemcallnumber 952k Call number (combined) To test results I put the following in these fields in one record of a Liblime demo record. 942j prefix 942k dewey 942l subclass 952k combined Here are the results as they show in the catalog: http://opac.liblime.com/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?bib=26305 Why does "prefix" come after "dewey"? One reason I'm looking at this is that, I'm trying to get the newer barcode generator using Gaylord 8511 labels working for us using the kind of call number we use. In this example if I check Dewey / Call Number, Classification, Item Call Number, and Sub-Class here's the result for the spine label: dewey sub combined Does anyone have a suggestion on how we should be entering our call numbers into the system to have it look correct in both the OPAC and on the spine labels? I just can't seem to riddle this out. --Jason

You need to know: where most koha files should be stored (you can set the prefix environment variable for this); the username and password of a mysql superuser; and details of your library setup. You may also need to know details of your Apache setup. If you want to install the Koha configuration files somewhere other than /etc (for installing not as root, or to have many Kohas on one system, for example), you should set the etcdir environment variable. Please look at your manuals for details of how to set that. Recommended answers are given in brackets after each question. To accept the default value for any question (indicated by []), simply hit Enter at the prompt. Note that you also can define an auto_install_file, that will answer every question automatically. To use this feature, run ./installer.pl -i /path/to/auto_install_file Are you ready to begin the installation? ([Y]/N): y Great! Continuing... PERL MODULES Checking perl modules ...

You need to know: where most koha files should be stored (you can set the prefix environment variable for this); the username and password of a mysql superuser; and details of your library setup. You may also need to know details of your Apache setup. If you want to install the Koha configuration files somewhere other than /etc (for installing not as root, or to have many Kohas on one system, for example), you should set the etcdir environment variable. Please look at your manuals for details of how to set that. Recommended answers are given in brackets after each question. To accept the default value for any question (indicated by []), simply hit Enter at the prompt. Note that you also can define an auto_install_file, that will answer every question automatically.

Koha Windows !!!
by Adalid Ortiz 19 Jan '07

19 Jan '07

Instalando Koha en Windows me di cuenta que el instalador busca el servidor apache en "Program Files\... Como yo lo probe en Windows XP en español tuve que copiar el archivo de configuracion que viene con koha en el folder correcto en "C:\Archivos de Programa" y editar algunos "paths" en el archivo de configucacion de Apache que apuntaban a "C:\program files..." Me tomo menos de un minuto hacerlo, es demasiado facil con este instalador y siguiendo las recomendaciones acerca de las versiones de Perl, MySql, etc. hechas por el autor. Este pequeñisimo detalle (detectar el folder de programas) es lo unico que le falta para ser perfecto para gentes sin ninguna experiencia instalando servidores. Felicidades otra vez para el autor del paquete para Windows. P.D. Este mensaje no es una queja. Quise escribirlo para que mas usuarios sin experiencia se animen a instalar Koha.

Re: [Koha] premature end of script headers

I found the cause of the problem by running the script in the shell. I could no longer connect to the MySQL database server since I had changed the name of the database user. Now the problem is fixed. This raises a couple of issues: 1. Why is the admin login username (to the Intranet) the same as the database username? The two should be separate, esp. for security reasons. 2. When the script that fails runs in the shell, I can clearly see the error: perl ./intranet/cgi-bin/mainpage.pl DBI connect('eesv2pre5:localhost','kohaadmin',...) failed: Access denied for user 'kohaadmin'@'%' to database'Koha' at /usr/local/koha/intranet/modules/C4/Context.pm line 411 Can't call method "prepare" on an undefined value at /usr/local/koha/intranet/modules/C4/Koha.pm line 388. Surely the same error message should be sent to the Apache log, rather than "premature end of script headers". I think the problem lies in the way Perl is being used. If Koha used mod_perl instead, this problem would not occur, since mod_perl can do things like ensure you have a valid database connection during Apache initialisation -- if there is a problem, mod_perl can be configured to abort the Apache startup. This would be a Good Thing (tm). Another Good Thing is mod_perl will run the scripts 100 x faster! A way to avoid the cryptic "Premature end of script headers" in scripts is to use the exception handling facility of Perl. For programmers only: each script is in an eval { } block and any errors caught, the HTTP headers output and then the error raised properly with Apache. I've been using this approach for years in LAMP apps -- works a treat, and no moer tears ;) My concern the the inordinate waste of hundreds of Koha users/installers time with the cryptic error message which can easily be ameliorated by a few programming tweaks. (This error is constantly being raised on the Koha user's mailing list) We can further discuss this on the koha-devel list if you wish. Advice to Koha users/installers: if you see the cryptic error message run the same script in the shell: PERL5LIB=/usr/local/koha/intranet/modules perl {FULL_PATH_TO_SCRIPT_HERE} cheers rickw > Rick Welykochy wrote: > >> I am running Koha/2.2.7 on LAMP. >> >> One of the scripts is causing a 500 error.

premature end of script headers
by Rick Welykochy 19 Jan '07

19 Jan '07

I am running Koha/2.2.7 on LAMP. One of the scripts is causing a 500 error. The error log does not show any perl error report, rather just the following: [Fri Jan 19 00:14:18 2007] [error] [client 192.168.0.3] Premature end of script headers: acqui-home.pl Any idea what causes this? cheers rickw -- _________________________________ Rick Welykochy || Praxis Services The 7 R's of Windows support: retry, restart, reboot, reconfigure, reinstall, reformat and finally, replace with Linux.

18 Jan '07

I'm setting up a new installation of 2.2.7 and am following the guide here: http://www.kohadocs.org/usersguide/ch01s01.html Several new parameters seem to have been added since that document was last revised. I wonder what the function of z3950AuthorAuthFields and z3950NormalizeAuthor is? Can anyone explain these? --Jason

Problem in running "bulkmarcimport.pl" script
by Whelchel, David Lavern 17 Jan '07

17 Jan '07

Hi Rob, I am experimenting with koha on windows as a personal project. I was wondering if you had any resolution to the bulkmarcimport.pl problem. I would be willing to be a tester for you if needed. I don't want to monopolize your time so I am still digging on several other problems (z39.50 500 error, no remote access to intranet even with the host file entries and how to implement LC Call numbers). I am running your most current configuration on windows 2003 server. I am also offering to provide complete step by step illustrated documentation based on your docs and the other docs on the koha site for a basic windows install if that would be wanted. Thanks for your time Dave ************************************************************************ ***** David L.

Follet to Koha conversion
by Christopher L Middleman 17 Jan '07

17 Jan '07

I am planning on moving our library from Follett over to Koha this summer. Follett stores the records as marc21/852. I can output them to a Microlif file, I am not sure if this matters. Can I read the database with a tool and directly convert it? Do I need to output it to a special file to then upload it with a special tool?

Hi Pedro, I recall that I've encounter the same problem using npl theme, koha ver 2.2.4. I have solve this problem by migrating to koha 2.2.5. I hope this info can help.

I've imported UNIMARC records with bulkmarcimport and I only get results of my searches in the OPAC of the default theme. Any other searches in any other theme result as 0. I have no erros in the MARC structure and when i made changes to it i run rebuildnonmarc.pl. Besides this i have imported the records with bulkmarcimport but i always get errors. First i got these ones: DBD::mysql::db do failed: Access denied for user 'kohaadmin'@'localhost' to database 'Koha' at /usr/local/koha/intranet/modules/C4/Biblio.pm line 333.

Meet contribs.koha.org
by Joshua M. Ferraro 17 Jan '07

17 Jan '07

Hi folks, I'm happy to announce today that the Koha project has launched a new tool to streamline the user contribution process. Meet contribs.koha.org, our new Extensions Manager. Our goal with this tool is to lower the learning curve and overhead for contributing add-on components to Koha. We know many of you have created some nifty additions to Koha (fresh redesign of the templates, some command-line utilities, migration scripts, an icon set, a new MARC framework) but aren't keen on learning CVS or sending off an email to the dev list every time you change something minor. If that describes you, the new Extensions Manager will allow you to distribute your Koha extension using a simple web-based interface. So ... how to get started? 1. Create an archive (zip file ) of your extension with any documentation and license information included. 2. Create an account on contribs.koha.org. Click on the 'Login' link and then 'Register' to get an account. 3. Log in and then click 'Add' to add your extension. 4. Give your extension a meaningful name and description and assign it to the appropriate categories (if you need a new catagory to be added, send an email to the koha-devel list and we'll add it). 5. Specify which versions of Koha your extension works with. 6. After you upload, send an email to the Koha developer's list announcing your extension and describing what it does. 7. When you change your extension, update it on contribs.koha.org If you have any questions or have trouble with the system send an email to the list and we'll try to get it sorted out. On behalf of the Koha Development Team, I'd like to thank: *Pierrick Le Gall for creating the Extensions Manager *Chris Cormack from Katipo for spending a weekend translating and installing it as well as packaging and uploading some of his contributions *Kyle Hall for testing it out by uploading the tools he's created *LibLime for hosting space and bandwidth Cheers, -- Joshua Ferraro SUPPORT FOR OPEN-SOURCE SOFTWARE President, Technology migration, training, maintenance, support LibLime Featuring Koha Open-Source ILS jmf(a)liblime.com |Full Demos at http://liblime.com/koha |1(888)KohaILS
