How to measure and improve Koha performance for our instance?
by Mike Lake 14 Jan '22

14 Jan '22

Hi all We have a production library setup at https://opac.caves.org.au and its now ready for users to use. We also have a test instance that can be used for testing. I'm wanting to know the options for measuring and improving the performance - just basic load and search time that users perceive. Currently we are running on a Linode instance with 1 CPU and 2 GB RAM. Yes it's a small library :-) Looking at Linode Longview it shows we have not hit more than 7% CPU usage and it usually sits at 1% CPU and 670 MB mem when idle. During a query cpu goes to 100% for a short period and mem to ~ 1 GB. I see in htop that several memcache threads are running. That's now installed automatically with Koha? The wiki seems to suggest that its optional. And there is plack mentioned in the wiki. Should we be running plack? I can double our Linode instance to 2 CPUs and 4 GB RAM but that's possibly an irreversible change (and double the $) so wish to leave that until I know it would make a significant difference. And how could I quantify that performance increase? Thanks -- Mike

Volume and Issue Numbering in Journals
by Charles Kelley 13 Jan '22

13 Jan '22

Hi, all! My library is implementing the serials module. We have been watching video tutorials, especially this one by ByWater Solutions: Deep Dive: Serials in Koha (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFnS7BK5aPM&t=27s) It seems easy enough -- yes, famous last words, comparable to Innovative Interfaces, Inc. and other ILS serial modules. However, the tutorial is clearly for single-number periodicals, i.e., each issue is its own issue number. Using the tutorial example, Martha Stewart Living, no. 390, no. 391, no. 392, etc. How does Koha handle two-number and three-number periodicals, i.e., a journal with a volume and issue number, e.g., The Journal of the American Medical Association with vol. 3:no. 6, vol. 3:no. 7, etc.? Many thanks, all! -- よろしくお願いします。 -- Charles.

Opening bids for KohaCon22
by Katrin Fischer 12 Jan '22

12 Jan '22

Hello dear Koha community, another year is coming to an end. It's time to turn our attention to the new year that's coming up, full of possibilities! If you or your organization would like to organize KohaCon22, please enter all relevant information on this wiki page: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/KohaCon22_Proposals (if you do not already have an account to edit the wiki, you can request one, it is usually pretty fast to get access). The community has agreed that KohaCon conferences must be either hybrid with an in-person conference streamed online, or entirely online. Apart from keeping the community members safe, this will also allow for greater accessibility, so that everyone can attend and learn from each other no matter their availability, ability to travel, or budget. Know that the community stands behind anyone who volunteers to organize and that help is always available if you're unsure how to proceed. Call for proposals will end on January 8, 2022 at 23:59 UTC. If there is more than one proposal, we will organize a vote, which will be announced on this mailing list. Best regards, Katrin

Can't locate object method "output_with_http_headers" via package "CGI"
by Michael Kuhn 12 Jan '22

12 Jan '22

Hi Our library uses a non-Koha Perl script to authenticate with Divibib Onleihe (a digital distributor like Overdrive). The script worked with Koha 18.05 but after the update to Debian 11 with Perl 5.032001 und Koha 21.11.01 the following error appears: Can't locate object method "output_with_http_headers" via package "CGI" at /usr/share/koha/opac/cgi-bin/opac/onleihe_auth.pl line 91. The script file actually contains these lines (among others): use CGI; use XML::Simple; use Koha::Patrons; use Koha::AuthUtils qw(hash_password); use Digest::MD5 qw(md5_base64); use C4::Output; use C4::Context; my $query = new CGI; ... output_with_http_headers $query, undef, $xml, 'xml'; Can anyone please give me a hint how to solve this problem?

Adding a repeated subfield with a MARC modification template
by Mathieu Saby 09 Jan '22

09 Jan '22

Hi I tried to add a repeated subfield with a MARC modification template, but I failed to achieve the wanted result (demo instance 20.11.02) . Could you please tell me if this operation is possible ? The subfield 099$t is repeatable in my framework What I expect is to create a 099$t and add two $t subfields : *099* *_tBOOK_t*CD But the result I obtain is *099 _t*CD (only the 2d occurence is added) I used these 2 rules : Update existing or add new field 099$t with value *BOOK* Update existing or add new field 099$t with value *CD* Regards, -- Mathieu Saby
