log4j
by Bales (US), Tasha R 14 Dec '21

Is Koha impacted by the log4j issue? https://www.zdnet.com/article/log4j-zero-day-flaw-what-you-need-to-know-and… The Koha Wiki makes minor use of the characters "log4j" in an article about Shibboleth configuration. Apologies if this is an inappropriate email. I've been advised to either patch or turn my server off this week if there is an impact. I've found various advice suggesting to do x, y, z to see if log4j is installed, then contrary advice that suggests that x, y, z may not be adequate. I am wholly unqualified to make inferences, so thought it best to ask the "source". Thanks. Tasha Bales Enterprise Services http://isesi.web.boeing.com/ Library Services Catalog upgrade is coming!

Re: [Koha] Koha sets due date to current date when checking out

Hi Michael Today you wrote: > I saw your email on the Koha list serv about the difficulties with a > patron due date. We had a similar issue earlier this year, and it > turned out that it was related to the Koha calendar.

So this can't be the reason for Koha's abnormal behaviour. Best wishes: Michael -- Geschäftsführer · Diplombibliothekar BBS, Informatiker eidg.

"Segmentation fault (11)" with Apache 2.4.51 on Debian 11
by Michael Kuhn 10 Dec '21

10 Dec '21

Hi I have the same problem on two different hosts, both use Debian GNU/Linux 11 with Apache HTTP Server 2.4.51. * one is a productive machine using Koha 21.05.02 * the other one is my demo installation using Koha 21.11.00 Both work as you would expect on the surface, but both show lots and lots of lines like the following in logfile "/var/log/apache2/error.log": [Mon Dec 06 22:48:51.598100 2021] [core:notice] [pid 3741] AH00052: child pid 4169 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Mon Dec 06 22:48:51.598225 2021] [core:notice] [pid 3741] AH00052: child pid 4170 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Mon Dec 06 22:48:51.598262 2021] [core:notice] [pid 3741] AH00052: child pid 4212 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) Even after hours of searching I couldn't find the reason for this behaviour, least of all the solution to it... Has anyone ever seen this before? Can anyone maybe confirm this on his own host with Debian 11 and Apache 2.4.51? Best wishes: Michael -- Geschäftsführer · Diplombibliothekar BBS, Informatiker eidg.

Problem upgrading to 21.05: perlapi-5-24.1 is not available
by King, Fred 10 Dec '21

10 Dec '21

Esteemed Colleagues, I'm trying to upgrade my Koha instance from 20.11.01.000 to 21.05, or 21.11 if I can't do oldstable. I'm running it on Ubuntu 20.04LTS. Short description: the upgrade appears to need perlapi-5-24.1, but it's not available. Long description, my input is in (parentheses); system response is indented in courier: (while upgrading) E: Repository 'http://debian.koha-community.org/koha stable InRelease' changed its 'Codename' value from '20.11' to '21.11' N: This must be accepted explicitly before updates for this repository can be applied. See apt-secure(8) manpage for details. (so I typed: echo 'deb http://debian.koha-community.org/koha 21.05 main' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/koha.list) (I also tried the above with 21.11) (apt-get install koha-common) koha-common: Depends: libyaml-libyaml-perl but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. (apt-get install libyaml-libyaml-perl) The following packages have unmet dependencies: libyaml-libyaml-perl : Depends: perlapi-5.24.1 but it is not installable E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. (apt-get install perlapi-5.24.1) Package perlapi-5-24.1 is not available, but it is referenced to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'perlapi-5.24.1 has no installation candidate (locate perlapi) /usr/share/perl/5.26.1/pod/perlapi.pod (and a few others) I've searched the Wiki, Google, and elsewhere, but I haven't found an answer. However, I've been working mostly in my basement and have a bad case of Basement Brain. Could someone point me towards a solution?
