Hi Steve, thanks for the help. Issues: #1 Steve> In your C4 directory again, do you have a Circulation subdirectory that Steve> contains a file called Circ2.pm? I'm wondering if you have an old C4 Steve> directory that doesn't have some of the changes I made recently. I do have both the subdirectory and Circ2.pm file. I'm using the koha-1.1.1 release from the Sourceforge site. #2 Rob> If I attempt to go to circulation, I get: Rob> premature end of script headers in Rob> /home/httpd/cgi-bin/koha/circ/circulation.pl Steve> There is no other error that is coming just before this message? No, just checked again. #3 Rob> If I attempt to go to Acquisitions, I get 2 errors: Rob> Undefined subroutine &main::systemprefs called at Rob> /home/httpd/cgi-bion/koha/loadmodules.pl Rob> and Rob> Premature end of script headers: Rob> /home/httpd/cgi-bin/koha/loadmodules.pl Steve> Okay. The systemprefs subroutine is supposed to be in the Search.pm file Steve> in your C4 directory (mine is located in /usr/lib/perl5/C4/Search.pm). Steve> I'll e-mail you a copy of that file privately. My copy of Search.pm did not have this function. The file you sent me fixed the acquisitions problem! (Thanks!) The interface works, by apache's error log is giving me an error, saying that the table koha.systemprefs does not exist. It's not in the koha.mysql script either - is this future functionality? So, acquisitions is working; circulation is not. Finally, folks, am I missing something? After I install CDK (successfully, the full cdk demo works) and try to fire up telnet/circ, nothing happens... Any thoughts? Best, Rob Robert K. Rickenbrode II rkr_ii(a)yahoo.com

Hey Steve, that did the trick, almost! I'm getting javascript errors in the Returns section (specifically, line 29: document.forms[0] has no properties.) Everything else looks great. Thanks, thanks, thanks. Just to clarify things for folks, which files are the current, stable ones? Finally, any chance you could make that simple circulation version available; I have exactly the same situation (new library, no automation, and MANY books to get in to the collection).

Installation Part II
by Robert Rickenbrode 26 Jul '01

26 Jul '01

Hey folks, I managed to get Koha mostly running one a single machine with a single IP address by using VirtualHosts and NameVirtualHosts in Apache. However, not everything works. Specifically, the Acquisitions and Circulation portions of the intranet give me Internal Server Errors. Examining Apache's error log gives me the following: If I attempt to go to circulation, I get: premature end of script headers in /home/httpd/cgi-bin/koha/circ/circulation.pl If I attempt to go to Acquisitions, I get 2 errors: Undefined subroutine &main::systemprefs called at /home/httpd/cgi-bion/koha/loadmodules.pl and Premature end of script headers: /home/httpd/cgi-bin/koha/loadmodules.pl I take it the premature end of script headers are the standard errors that happen when a web-script fails to produce a good page. The problem is that I don't know how to get more information than that. Has anyone seen this before? Thanks, Rob __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Mitch Freedman, president-elect of ALA, has taken a look at Koha and is intrigued. He's in a position to spread the word about Koha and other Free or Open Source software, obviously. Important eyes are on us. :) Ben

Koha/OpenBook
by Nicholas Stephen Rosasco 16 Jul '01

Has anyone else had a chance to look at the OpenBook OPAC? I have to confess I am .... impressed -- and also startled by how look/feel similar it is to Koha in some respects. NSR

OpenBook Beta Technical release
by Deirdre McDonough 16 Jul '01

16 Jul '01

The Technology Resource Foundation is happy to announce the beta technical release of OpenBook version 0.8. Due to its beta nature, installation of OpenBook version 0.8 is not suggested for the beginning Linux User. Highly recommended prerequisite skills include: -Manuevering the Linux command line -Configuring, compiling, and installing packages from source -Editing system config files Point your browser to http://www.trfoundation.org/projects/download.html to download the beta technical release. We hope to have a fully functional v1.0 release in the early fall. As many of you may know, we began this project by working on Koha. We quickly realized that to meet the needs of our local target audience, we would have to support MARC. A message sent to this list in late May by Lora Morgaine explains this in more detail. It's not intended at this point to be Koha, but rather we required the ability to support MARC format and our target progamming language was different. While we were definitely inspired by Koha, and we sent the originally compatible work to Chris Cormack, the code is completely new. I hope this addresses anyone's concerns about this being a fork project. We sincerely hope that the code release is something that will be useful to the Koha project, it's clearly not the same beast at this point.
