Koha and LOC Classification
by michelle campbell 16 May '06

16 May '06

Hello, I am having some trouble setting up the catalogue to use Library of Congress classification. Even if I set the field as "Mandatory" within the Biblio framework, the field still does not show up within the "Add Biblio" field. Can anyone offer me advice on how to get around this? I've looked through the archives and documentation and can't seem to find an answer anywhere. Thanks! Michelle Campbell -- Michelle K.

Dear Michelle Campbell; You can get rid off the problem by editing the default MARC framework. Edit the default MARC framework: use the tag 050 subfield 'a' (Classification number) and link it with the Koha biblioitems.classification. We (Addis Ababa University Libraries - Ethiopia) have been using Koha for the last 1 and years.

The database link of the table is not working
by Lewis Satini 16 May '06

16 May '06

i try to edit the data back and it seems the link is not working. the edited data will not view on the the record view. how can i fix this link? like the 942k link to classification, I change 942k, but the classification shows me the old number. The only I can change is manually go through the database record and changes it. That really takes a lot of time? is there any script I can run to fix this link? it's not occur only in 942k others too. if there are scripts? how can i run? if no, is there any other solutions? thanks _________________________________________________________________ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!

Apache returns test page instead of Koha
by Casey Mirch 16 May '06

16 May '06

Day three of trying to get Koha installed on Debian sarge. I installed all the dependencies as instructed in http://www.kohadocs.org/Installing_Koha_on_Debian_sarge.html. I had problems including koha-httpd.conf in the wrong conf file for apache, whereas my server seems to have both an /etc/apache/httpd.conf and /etc/apache2/apache2.conf. I'm pretty sure I'm working in all the right conf files now. When I try to open <http://ho-debian1:8080> http://ho-debian1:8080, I get the "Test Page for Apache Installation" <http://ho-debian1:8080/apache2-default> http://ho-debian1:8080/apache2-default. Trying to open <http://ho-debian1:8080/index.html> http://ho-debian1:8080/index.html in my browser results in a 404 error. Requesting <http://ho-debian1:8080/cgi-bin/koha/mainpage.pl> http://ho-debian1:8080/cgi-bin/koha/mainpage.pl returns a 404 error page and generates the following error in /var/log/apache2/error.log: script not found or unable to stat: /usr/lib/cgi-bin/koha. Opening localhost:8080 in lynx on the apache server returns a Koha page. The demo looked great, but I couldn't actually execute an order on a basket, keeping me from all the subsequent acquisition pages I need to evaluate Koha. If I can't get this to work I fear there shall be no Koha for my organization. Can anyone help? _____ Here's the footer returned by the 404 response: Apache/2.0.54 (Debian GNU/Linux) mod_python/3.1.3 Python/2.3.5 PHP/4.3.10-16 mod_perl/1.999.21 Perl/v5.8.4 Server at ho-debian1 Port 8080 _____ Here's apache2.conf: ServerRoot "/etc/apache2" LockFile /var/lock/apache2/accept.lock # PidFile: The file in which the server should record its process # identification number when it starts.

z3950 multiple searches
by Siskind, Erica 15 May '06

15 May '06

I am reference librarian with only user-end computer skills trying to use a koha system which has been set up by a non-librarian computer-specialist, both of us volunteering for our children's school. I would like to be able to search about 1,000 isbn numbers, upload their marc records, and then take all summer to reconcile each record with the book in front of me (adding item type info and individual barcodes). But all I can figure out how to do is search one isbn at a time in koha (add new biblio). Please tell me there is a way to scan several isbn's at once and have my computer go and find all the marc records and give them to me in a batch! (and how to do it, of course!) Thanks in advance, - Erica Siskind (parent volunteer)...and...(librarian) Berkwood Hedge School Oakland Public Library Berkeley, California, USA Oakland, California, USA

Add Member Problem

Hi All, I am a newbie from Indonesia. I am trying to implement the ILS for my University Library. The collections are around 50.000 titles with 100.000 books and the patron number is around 20.000. I am interested in Koha because it is FREE and Chalenging :) I just succesfully installed koha 2.2.5 on Debian Sarge using perl 5.8.4 and mySQL 4.0.24. However, when I added new member, I always get the error. The error_log is like this : [Mon May 15 15:25:38 2006] [error] [client 10.2.22.22] ==> > at /usr/local/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/members/memberentry.pl line 120., referer: http://10.2.22.22:8080/cgi-bin/koha/members/memberentry.pl?actionType=Add [Mon May 15 15:25:38 2006] [error] [client 10.2.22.22] ERROR: Date::Manip unable to determine TimeZone., referer: http://10.2.22.22:8080/cgi-bin/koha/members/memberentry.pl?actionType=Add [Mon May 15 15:25:38 2006] [error] [client 10.2.22.22] \tDate::Manip::Date_TimeZone called at /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.4/Date/Manip.pm line 676, referer: http://10.2.22.22:8080/cgi-bin/koha/members/memberentry.pl?actionType=Add [Mon May 15 15:25:38 2006] [error] [client 10.2.22.22] \tDate::Manip::Date_Init() called at /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.4/Date/Manip.pm line 1446, referer: http://10.2.22.22:8080/cgi-bin/koha/members/memberentry.pl?actionType=Add [Mon May 15 15:25:38 2006] [error] [client 10.2.22.22] \tDate::Manip::ParseDate('today') called at /usr/local/koha/intranet/modules/C4/Members.pm line 132, referer: http://10.2.22.22:8080/cgi-bin/koha/members/memberentry.pl?actionType=Add [Mon May 15 15:25:38 2006] [error] [client 10.2.22.22] \tC4::Members::newmember('phoneday', '', 'firstname', 'Gunawan', 'categorycode', 'I', 'destination', '', 'othernames', ...) called at /usr/local/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/members/memberentry.pl line 137, referer: http://10.2.22.22:8080/cgi-bin/koha/members/memberentry.pl?actionType=Add [Mon May 15 15:25:38 2006] [error] [client 10.2.22.22] Premature end of script headers: memberentry.pl, referer: http://10.2.22.22:8080/cgi-bin/koha/members/memberentry.pl?actionType=Add It looks like there is problem with Date::Manip, but I do not know how to fix it.

Koha item call numbers
by Krieger, Tim 15 May '06

15 May '06

I seem to recall in the past that there was a nice little walk through provided by someone on how to get koha working with a multi part call number (using the k, h, and i) subfields, but, I can not seem to find that information anywhere in the archives or linked from the howto's. Anyone able to point me in the correct direction or give some pointers on how to keep the three separate subfields and also have koha display them as a single call number? Tim

Barcode Issue

Hi, I am having the same problem you had on the Barcode. "Premature end of script headers: barcodesGenerator.pl" and was reading the thread. Were you able to solve the problem? (I added the tmp drive, but this did not help either). Would greatly appreciate your feedback! Many thanks, Derrick Bilderbeek derrick(a)armatuscapital.com

Barcode Generator Problem
by Amzari Abu Bakar 15 May '06

15 May '06

Hi all, Refering to below email, I wonder you print your spine label? Which field you importing from? Is it according to standard spine label practice (LC or DDC). I'll be very grateful if you can help me out on to address this issue. Thanks. Amzari Abu Bakar FingerClick Solutions Message: 9 Date: Tue, 9 May 2006 8:48:44 -0400 From: <bluejaydesign(a)sympatico.ca> Subject: Re: [Koha] Barcode Generator Problem To: vimal kumar <vimal0212(a)yahoo.com>, Koha-List <koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz> Message-ID: <20060509124844.NSOI27612.tomts16-srv.bellnexxia.net(a)smtp1.sympatico.ca> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Maybe not exactly the answer you are looking for, but I avoided the whole problem by using kbarcode (see kbarcode.net) it can print barcodes but also spine labels and membercards and almost anything else you can think of. Works wonderful for me, and it can (and does) get the data from the Koha databases. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
