Change default encoding for OPAC
by Carol Ku 06 Nov '05

06 Nov '05

I am in the process of changing the default code for user interface. However, I couldn't seem to find the line with charset=8859-1 even if i open the path indicated by the page source. e.g. under opac-search pl i see the following code <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/opac-tmpl/css/en/includes/opac.css" /> <title>Koha Free Software ILS Koha : a gift, a contribution in Maori</title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"/> But if i go to the file and try to edit the code, the first few lines are not the same. I couldn't find the charset through the whole file. #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; require Exporter; use C4::Auth; use C4::Interface::CGI::Output; use C4::Context; use CGI; use C4::Database; use HTML::Template; use C4::SearchMarc; use C4::Acquisition; --------------------------------- Yahoo!

KOHA / MySQL limits
by Librarian 04 Nov '05

04 Nov '05

Hi. We're contemplating creating a library catalog and circulation system, but before we invest a significant amount of time and money in it, we would like to ask 5 (probably very silly) questions: (a) Although our catalogue will probably end up at not much more than 60,000 items and 50,000 biblios, we will probably need to work with a reservoir of up to 10 million MARC records. Can KOHA (and can MySQL) cope with that number of records in its reservoir? (b) Does anyone have any experience they would be willing to share, of using KOHA with RFID technology rather than with barcodes to identify books and other items? (c) Can KOHA export MARC records? A shared cataloguing agreement means that we will need to contribute MARC records to other libraries from time to time, and I don't fancy having to catalog items twice - once in KOHA and a second time using MARC tags. (d) The sources we will hope to use to populate our reservoir will have a certain amount of duplication - but the different sources will have different strengths, so we don't really want to overwrite an existing reservoir biblio from one source with a biblio from the next source imported, because we may well need to use LOC classes from one source, subject headings from another, and physical cataloguing data from a third. Is this possible? Could it be made possible? (e) Most of the stuff we will be cataloguing will not have an ISBN - some of it dates from the 1500s. Obviously that makes it more difficult to identify items in the reservoir to match, but is it still actually possible to work without ISBNs? Thanks, everyone, for your attention.

Change default browser encoding
by Carol Ku 04 Nov '05

04 Nov '05

The page source of Koha user interface indicates that the catalogue has a charset=iso-8859-1 set there. The page for the main page is located at intranet/cgi-bin/koha/mainpage.pl. I went there and try to opne the mainpage.pl, the MS DOS screen (black) pops up briefly and was instantly closed. It seems like the file mainpage.pl needs to be open by Perl Command Interpreter. Is it included in the Perl download? How do i get to open the main page? I am getting very close to actually using the program. Someone please help. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

prompted for card number and password

Hi, When I go to the administrator's screen in Koha, I'm presented with a login screen seeking a card number and a password. I don't remember what I specified or indeed specifying anything. I looked in the Koha.conf file but the user name and password there don't work. How do I retrieve this information?

Apache not listening on port 8080
by John Fitzgibbon 04 Nov '05

04 Nov '05

Hi, I have included the koha-httpd.conf file in httpd.conf. Apache now serves the OPAC on localhost as koha-httpd.conf specifies. This file specifies that the cataloguing application is available from localhost port 8080 but Apache is not responding on this port. I can telnet to localhost 80 but not to localhost 8080. What should I configure to get Apache to listen on both ports? Any ideas would be welcome?

Source page
by Carol Ku 04 Nov '05

04 Nov '05

The source page indicates that there is no charset designated for user records, and therefore, i am able to add and search in Chinese easily. However, under catalogue module, charset is set to be ISO-8859-1. Is it possible at all to exclude this language? Sorry for all these emails. We are anxious to put Koha into full functions as soon as possible. --------------------------------- Yahoo!

Confirmed: Koha allows search in Chinese
by Carol Ku 04 Nov '05

04 Nov '05

The key is the encoding of the browser. Everytime a book record is entered, I have to make sure that the encoding is set to the same input code i am using to store the record. The problem now is: every time the page changes, I need to reset the encoding to say, Unicode. Does anyone know how to change the default encoding? --------------------------------- Yahoo!
