Moving
by Roger Horne 17 Jun '04

17 Jun '04

I rudely did not thank people for answering a question some time ago: so belated "thanks" ... At the moment I run Koha under Suse 9 on a machine at home, connecting to it from work via a VPN (with no users other than me). I now want to transfer it to a machine running Suse 9 or 9.1 at work which I can give othrs access to. Assuming that I have made no alterations to the Web pages, ie that all the files originally installed are in their original form, it would seem that it would be sensible to use the installer to set up the new system rather than simply copying the files (in case there is some parameter which differs in a minor way). But what is the best way to transfer the data? I do not have huge amounts, but it would be annoying to start again. Is Mysqldump the way to go?

New Koha installation in India
by Baiju M 17 Jun '04

17 Jun '04

Hi friends, I have installed koha for yet another college library with a collection of about 40000 books. Today they started issuing books using Koha. I have listed three libraries using koha in India at : http://www.saas.nsw.edu.au/koha_wiki/index.php?page=KohaUsers Any other library in india already using Koha?

manage due dates
by Stefanie Mohsennia 17 Jun '04

17 Jun '04

Hi everybody, I asked this question before (didn't get any answers), but I try again, because I guess everybody must have this problem: how can I enter closing or opening days, i.e. days that should not be a due date? Our library is closed on Fridays and Sundays, on public holidays and for a whole month during the summer. How do I tell Koha to calculate due dates, ignoring the days when the library is closed? I would be very grateful to hear your suggestions. Thanks a lot from Germany! Stefanie Mohsennia www.international-library.de

Sirsi Unicorn migration
by Ailish Farragher 17 Jun '04

17 Jun '04

Hi there, I'm a librarian from Ireland, currently working in a government library. We're looking at alternatives to a forced server migration from our current library software vendor, Sirsi. Whereas I'm sure that Koha will not be accepted as a solution (too radical, we're civil servants!) I'd like to present it as an option. My question is has anyone transferred data from a Sirsi Unicorn system into Koha? If so, was there much corruption or loss of data? I understand that mass dump of MARC records is on its way so am guessing that this may not have been done with Koha before. In case anyone remembers me from my yearly mails, I've not yet managed to get techie to create a Koha installation for our still-waiting-planning-permission eco-village. Someday, I'm just going to learn Perl. Regards, Ailish

RE: [Koha] password for web interface

Hi there, Many moons ago, when I first installed Koha, I too encountered this conundrum: To start out, it is indeed the mysql password for the koha database that you will need to use to connect as administrator. From there (in koha, the library administration module), you will be able to add users and adjust Koha's parameters to suit your tastes and the needs of your users - Let me know how this goes -- Regards, - Scott Malec -----Original Message----- From: koha-admin(a)lists.katipo.co.nz [mailto:koha-admin@lists.katipo.co.nz] On Behalf Of louvet(a)maply.univ-lyon1.fr Sent: Wednesday, June 16, 2004 2:10 AM To: koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz Subject: [Koha] password for web interface Hello, We have installed koha on a debian server.
