Re: [Koha] Re: More questions for migrating to koha

Paul, Thanks for the prompt response! That is what I had assumed and so I am puzzled as to why I am getting errors in rebuildnonmarc.pl. We used the 952 "user" tag because that was already defined in our db. Here is a sample of the error: DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Column 'tagorder' cannot be null at c:\usr\koha200\intranet\modules/C4/Biblio.pm line 385. ERROR ==> insert into marc_subfield_table (bibid,tag,tagorder,tag_indicator,subfieldcode,subfieldorder,subfieldvalue) values (387,952,, ,b,1,SEF) DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Column 'tagorder' cannot be null at c:\usr\koha200\intranet\modules/C4/Biblio.pm line 932. ERROR ==> insert into marc_word (bibid, tag, tagorder, subfieldid, subfieldorder, word, sndx_word) values (387,952,,b,1,SEF,soundex(SEF)) Also, every "952" linked field, ie. every 'items' table field shows up twice but only on "intranet" pages. When we look at biblios from OPAC pages, they appear correctly. When we try to edit the 'items' data, things really get messed up. The changes appear to 'take' but then aren't there when you do a search, for example, on bar code. I'm scratching my head for ideas here. We are running Koha 2.0.0. Win32. We loaded everything into a clean db, a copy of blank200 with the marc_subfield_structure and marc_tag_structure tables built from the sql script provided with the installation. I can't see anything amiss in the table structure. Again, thanks in advance for any help.

For french UNIMARC it's 995. That's the beauty of Koha ;-) The only rules are : * put all your items fields to the same TAG * in this TAG put only items informations * use the koha <-> MARC relation to "map" MARC to the item table. All the rest is done magically ;-) -- Paul POULAIN Consultant indépendant en logiciels libres responsable francophone de koha (SIGB libre http://www.koha-fr.org)

hai, all we need to check the information available on the following link : http://www.saas.nsw.edu.au/koha_wiki/index.php?page=MarcKohaMap i chech it according to me this is not correct because: under ITEM table: 1.it refer the tag no. 852p for barcode although although the tag no.952p directly mentioned the barcode. 2.it refer tag 890c for itemnumber which is not available in the MARC tags defined in koha. 3it refer tag 876d for dateaccessioned which is not available in the MARC tags defined in koha although there is another tag i.e.952v which represents the dateaccessioned. & also other so many tags which are not available with koha like nothing is available after 856z tag in 8xx. i am working in koha 2.0.0,i really need the help of someone to correct it,without it i am not able to do anything,please guide me. -- kanwal Librarian Guru Nanak Dev Engineering College Ludhiana (Punjab) India

If you've just subscribed, then maybe you haven't yet seen the footer attached to each Koha post: > Koha mailing list > Koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz > http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha Follow that link for a link to the archive (http://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/) and for UNSUBSCRIBE information should you ever need it (as unlikely as that sounds!) -- Owen

feaure-set 2.0.1 stable determination
by Anthony S. 21 Sep '04

21 Sep '04

Hi. Before I install a newer version of Koha, I think that it will still have the following unfixed issues, correct? I don't know how to make these determinations myself and will check bugs.koha.org for pointers to program the following features into my production installation. How has it been done in the on-line Demo? o It is impossible to give Koha-system account holders less than Super-administrative access permissions (and more than no-access permissions). Very important feature. This is what the TODO "Member Access" term means. Who else is working on that now? o Z-daemon completely works. RSVP, Tony (Ottawa, Can.)

Re: [Koha] MARC Collector

Monday, September 20, 2004 16:50 CDT ¡Hola Marco! Well, I read through their website and I couldn't find any statement about the cost. Geez, that's annoying: I am certainly no businessperson, but is it really so illogical to think that posting the price clearly and what to do about ordering is unexpected?! Argh. Anyway, Marco, from what I can tell, you are meant to install the program first and then send for the License Key. If you ftp'd it and read the ReadMe file, you'd find that info at the end of it (I won't get started on why that isn't clearly delineated at the end of the page on the product). As for waiting for their answer, I have learned from experience that having a website seems to make certain folk rather haughty. Depending on how long ago you wrote though, you may want to send a second email indicating this is urgent for you. At a cost of $350 US and with the possibility that a string of ISBNs will return poor records anyway, I would still favour what I was taught -- and what Brooke (ave atque salve, amica!) recently reaffirmed the usefulness of -- namely searching and verifying records individually. This is not nearly as awful a process as non-cataloguers imagine. Panning through garbage records on the other hand, o the stories I could tell you ... Hope this helps a little bit. Steven F.
