Koha test server results.

I attempted to reproduce the bug I have on our koha server on liblime and was unable to. However the interface bore no resemblance whatsoever to the interface we use. Is there anything custom about that interface or is it something that was changed on the general koha installation? Our interface is all in lime greens and purples and greys. I was curious as the interface on liblime had much more on it, but seemed to be more comprehensive. Our server information is as follows. Koha: 2.2.3 OS version: Linux wairaka 2.6.11-gentoo-r9 #3 Wed Jun 8 12:50:30 EST 2005 i686 Pentium III (Coppermine) GenuineIntel Perl: 5.008005 MySQL: mysql Ver 12.22 Distrib 4.0.24, for pc-linux-gnu (i386) Strangely no Apache version is listed on our Koha about page. I guess the bug could come from some strange incosistency in one of the support programs as well. If the interface on liblime is the one that just comes with the newest version of Koha then I will immediately talk to our server guy about upgrading, and while this is still all very strange thank you for pointing me to some tools to help figure it all out. Joshua Ferraro Quote: Interesting. Could you try to reproduce this on koha.liblime.com? That is running the very latest CVS so you'll be able to tell if it's been addressed or now. Let me know how it turns out.

Choice of deployment servers

hi all, we have had a good time testing out koha and we are in the final stages of getting over it. our librarian has given me great reviews about it and we are going to plunge into implementation in a few days from now. we have in fact started the bibliography process. we are an engineering college with over 1500 members.( u know lots of circulations). and the amount of new books that comes in is also increasing. my question is what type of hardware is sufficient to run such a system. I am presently using FC3.( mysql 3 series) will it be a problem if i migrate to FC5? what do you recommend? -- Regards Mohamed Imran K R

Re: Koha Roadmap

My library is waiting on Koha 3.0 to upgrade because we have several bugs within our installation that I have unfortunately not been able to find any documentation on, and when I have posted them to the list no one has given any feedback on them, and we are hoping that 3.0 would provide fixes for them. You said Koha would not be ready for April 15th, do you have any idea what a realistic estimate is? That information would be very helpful for me, as our server tech wants to make upgrading a summer project.

Hello Everyone... I know that I've posted something about this before and I have yet to get a resolution for this issue... When I try to print out my Barcodes, I'm still getting the following error: The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Error message: Premature end of script headers: barcodesGenerator.pl If you think this is a server error, please contactthe webmaster. When I go to the log page, I get the following error: [Thu Mar 30 17:38:51 2006] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Premature end of script headers: barcodesGenerator.pl, referer: http://intranet/cgi-bin/koha/barcodes/barcodes.pl [Thu Mar 30 17:38:51 2006] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Unable to open /tmp/829986-127.0.0.1-(From 1000000001 to 1000000020)-[30.3.2006]-[17:38:51].pdf for writing at C:/usr/site/lib/PDF/API2/PDF/File.pm line 420., referer: http://intranet/cgi-bin/koha/barcodes/barcodes.pl I do have the appropriate API2 file...

fines2.pl
by Calvin Park 30 Mar '06

30 Mar '06

Hello everyone, I've been beating my head into the wall (on and off) for about a month trying to get the fines2.pl script to work properly. The error is as follows: DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Table 'Koha.categoryitem' doesn't exist at /var/www/html/koha/intranet/modules/C4/Circulation/Fines.pm line 156. DBD::mysql::st fetchrow_hashref failed: fetch() without execute() at /var/www/html/koha/intranet/modules/C4/Circulation/Fines.pm line 157. I'm the System Administrator, and the head librarian would very much like to have fines working properly. I did some research and Google reveals that at some point during the development of Koha (over the past year I believe) fines2.pl was broken because Koha.categoryitem was removed/changed. Other than this Koha is working great for us. If you need any more information please let me know, and thanks in advance for any help you can give us on this.

Koha 3.0
by Krieger, Tim 30 Mar '06

30 Mar '06

Anyone willing to comment on the status of 3.0? I have a library that is looking at starting a move to an ILS and it seems to me that if the 3.0 stream of Koha is going to be on time (Aprli 15) as per the road map that it would be wise to wait for that release. Any comments appreciated. T

patches for opac-searc
by Bruno Marmol 28 Mar '06

28 Mar '06

Hi, I've found a bug in opac search. After searching for "Recent acquisitions" the parameter "desc_or_asc" contains the number of day for the search. After the display of the first page of results, the link to other next/previous/page_number pages do not contains this parameter and the continuation list fail! So I've patched opac-search.pl to call the template with the good arg, and I've patched fr/opac-searchresult.tmpl to display good links. (Sorry don't patche English version...) Here are the patches... Hope that help. -- Bruno Marmol.
