So thank you, glad to tell that all perl modules are succesfully installed (and that i have just found the reply-to-all function) - i just had the wrong versions of libwrap *shame*. Of course now that I've got there, other questions are raising...

updating libc6 for koha
by Diederich Hessling 19 Apr '06

19 Apr '06

First of all, as this is my first mail to the list, greetings to everyone out there who reads this. I am a student from berlin, at the time trying to set up koha for a befriended library, but before that on my own machine. I have Linux 3.1 (sarge afaik) installed on my pc and am trying to make my way through to getting koha work on it. Problem as follows: I try to set up NET::Z3950 with the usual makefile etc., this module says it can't find -lwrap. I've found out that I need libwrap0 installed to solve that. libwrap0 (and libdbd-mysql-perl as well) say they need the libc 2.3.51 or higher versions of it, whereas on my linux installation there is something like 2.2.32. I've read that there is a high chance of messing up the system should i try to install libc from newer distributions. I couldnt find libc6 2351, but instead 2.3.6.7, which is apparently of the unstable-linux-distribution. though i didn't find relevant postings in the koha archive i assume i am not the first one who has this problem and i wanted to ask if and how others have solved this. You may yet have noticed that i am not an experienced linux user. thanks in advance and excuse my pidgin english greetings, Stefan Gesing

Text/x-perl

Hullo all! I've sucessfully installed Koha on a Debian Sarge machine running MySql 4.0and Apache2. I corrected an error in the koha-httpd.conf Alias script lines and now my browser points to the right files on localhost:80 and localhost:8080, but it is popping up an error stating that Mozilla does not understand how to execute text/x-perl files and wants to choose the program from a list or download it instead of running the *.pl scripts after showing the "Welcome to Koha" page briefly. According to the koha installation program I have all perl scripts and modules installed and I have triple checked with every installation guide out there and am wits end on how to fix this error. Has anyone else hit this problem and if so how did you fix it? Thank you all for any help I recieve!! Joe Allen

Dear Joshua; thank you for your comments, in the case of including cover images from amzaon.com, in koha version 2.2.5 installation directory,I just found a folder called "amzonratings" I executed the sql script and also the perl module get_amazonrating but it seemed that nothing happened. it will your kind help if give me more comments what is the way to do this? -------------------------- Sincerely Yours, Shahab Bohlooli,PhD Ardabil University of Medical Sciences, Ardabil 56197,Iran Phone no: 0098-451-5512788 Fax no: 0098-451-5510057 -----Original Message----- From: Joshua Ferraro [mailto:jmf@liblime.com] Sent: Fri 2006/04/14 05:47 PM To: shahab bohlooli Cc: koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz Subject: Re: [Koha] how I can include cover images of books into koha? Dear Shahab, To date, the only book cover images that have been used with Koha are done through the Amazon.com module, available in the CVS version (and the soon to be released 2.4). It would be quite trivial to add a feature that allowed scanned images to be linked to records, but no library has sponsored this feature. If this feature is critical for you, there are a couple options: 1. you can develop the feature and contribute it back to the Koha community 2. you can hire someone to develop and contribute it back for you.

Problem with Z39.50 servers, bug (and fix) in processz3950queue?
by Marilen Corciovei 11 Apr '06

11 Apr '06

Hello everybody, I am strugling with koha and Z39.50 servers for a while now. Apparently no server except UNIV OF NORTHERN WALES 147.143.2.5:210 INNOPAC worked for me. So I decided to write a simple program in perl to test the Z39.50 functionality. After solving problems revealed here: http://lists.indexdata.dk/pipermail/net-z3950/2003-October/000356.html and here: http://lists.indexdata.dk/pipermail/net-z3950/2002-July/000136.html I managed to write a working program: #!/usr/bin/perl use Net::Z3950; #$conn = new Net::Z3950::Connection("LIBRARY.MIT.EDU", 9909, databaseName => "mit01") #$conn = new Net::Z3950::Connection("Z3950cat.bl.uk", 9909, databaseName => "BLAC") #$conn = new Net::Z3950::Connection("z3950.nls.uk", 7290, databaseName => "Endeavor") #$conn = new Net::Z3950::Connection("bobcat.nyu.edu", 210, databaseName => "GEAC") $conn = new Net::Z3950::Connection("z3950.loc.gov", 7090, databaseName => "Voyager") or die $!; $conn->option('preferredRecordSyntax', Net::Z3950::RecordSyntax::USMARC); $rs = $conn->search("\@attr 1=7 \"3764353651\"") or die $conn->errmsg(); #$rs->option(preferredRecordSyntax => "SUTRS"); #$rs->option(preferredRecordSyntax => "XML"); #$rs->option(elementSetName => "B"); my $n = $rs->size(); $rs->present(1, $n); print "found $n records:\n"; foreach $i (1..$n) { $rec = $rs->record($i) or die $rs->errmsg(); print $rec->render(); } $conn->close(); Then I looked in the processz3950queue and found: eval { $conn->option(preferredRecordSyntax => Net::Z3950::RecordSyntax::USMARC);} if ($globalsyntax eq "MARC21"); eval { $conn->option(preferredRecordSyntax => Net::Z3950::RecordSyntax::UNIMARC);} if ($globalsyntax eq "UNIMARC"); however there is no MARC21 choice in z3950servers.tmpl: <select name="syntax"> <option value="USMARC">USMARC</option> <option value="UNIMARC">UNIMARC</option> </select> I realized then that changing MARC21 to USMARC fixes the problem. Now I can succesfully use the library of congress in my searches. eval { $conn->option(preferredRecordSyntax => Net::Z3950::RecordSyntax::USMARC);} if ($globalsyntax eq "USMARC"); Hopefully this will come handy for someone else to running into the same problem.
