11 Feb '25

Greetings all, I have a strange problem with the Koha OPAC Main User Block. I have removed the OPAC Main User Block content using the HTML customization block, edited it but doesn't change anything when I go back to the page. I have restarted Koha services, Koha-plack, cleared Koha cache, cleared my browser cache and nothing seems to work. When I inspect the Koha OPAC page, I see this what is below. It looks like there is some static content and I don't know where and how to edit it. Please help Here is a code I see when I inspect the page. <div style="float:center; width:720px; height:720px;"> <font color="green" align="center"></font><h2><font color="green" align="center"><u>WELCOME TO THE RICHARD ONDENG' LIBRARY</u></font></h2> <p align="" center=""> The library is named after Richard Ondeng' an individual who has contributed a great deal to the establishment and <br> development of the University. </p><p>Our main mission is to support the university community in becoming the best information provision center for <br> academic and research needs by providing the necessary resources and a conducive study environment.</p> <p>Our print resources are placed in open stacks for the convenience of users.

Re: [Koha] Koha performance on Debian
by David Liddle 10 Feb '25

10 Feb '25

Hi, all! For anyone who might have been following this thread, Paul and I got together in a screen-sharing session for the following resolution: ISSUE 1: Slow performance DIAGNOSIS 1: Plack not running; enable Plack (credit M. Kuhn) ISSUE 2: Plack cannot be enabled DIAGNOSIS 2: Plack directives (Include statements) missing from OPAC and Intranet sections of Apache config (/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/{instancename}.conf) RESOLUTION: Manually insert Include statements in each section; restart Apache P.S. If I'm not mistaken, the Plack directives are normally included with the default Apache config file – but commented out, disabling Plack.

Re: [Koha] Koha performance on Debian
by David Liddle 06 Feb '25

06 Feb '25

Paul, I'm sorry that I didn't proofread the commands that I suggested. Anytime you see or execute the "koha-" commands, the particular name of the intended Koha instance, e.g. "library" should be substituted. It seems that in your case (and ours), those would be: $ sudo koha-disable *library* $ sudo a2enmod rewrite cgi headers proxy_http $ sudo systemctl restart apache2 $ sudo koha-plack --disable *library* $ sudo koha-plack --enable *library* $ sudo systemctl restart apache2 $ sudo systemctl restart koha-common $ sudo systemctl status koha-common Crucially, the grep results for your Apache site config do not have "Include" directives that load Plack. Start perhaps with those Plack commands in the middle of the list above and work your way down again. See if that changes anything.
