Batch check-in or check-out of library materials
by Peter Lau 07 Mar '19

07 Mar '19

Does Koha allow for batch check-in or check-out of library materials with a string of barcodes? If so, what delimiters does it accept? We would like to be able to use the RFID pad to allow users to put multiple items on the pad for check-in and check-out of library books.

independent branch - help
by m_kowlaski 07 Mar '19

07 Mar '19

Hi, after install koha (18.11) instance I set on IndependentBranches and IndependentBranchesPatronModificationsi in preferences. Then I added two users assigned to different libraries and some books. Users have all the permissions except: budget_manage_all, order_manage_all, superserials, view_borrower_infos_from_any_libraries. I have a few questions: - why the user with rights (no superlibrarian) can not log in to opac? - why a user assigned to another library can create a new item to another (the possibility of choosing a library 952$a, 952$b)? - why is access to all budgets (not funds), not just for a given library? Are there any more additional settings about Independent to completely separate library? Or how do this? Can anyone help? Thanks Marcin -- Sent from: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Koha-general-f3047918.html

[MariaDB] installing version 10.3
by Father Vlasie 07 Mar '19

07 Mar '19

Hello everyone, I noticed that Koha is giving me an error: "Some of your tables have problems with their auto_increment values which may lead to data loss." On the wiki page (https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/DBMS_auto_increment_fix) it is stated that this issue only affects MariaDB versions prior to 10.2.4. Since MariaDB 10.3 is now stable I tried to upgrade to that version. I installed the MariaDB repo for 10.3. I apt-get removed mariadb-server and common. On upgrading afterwards the correct repo and packages seemed to be listed: —8<—8<—8<--- Get:1 http://nyc2.mirrors.digitalocean.com/mariadb/repo/10.3/debian stretch/main amd64 libmariadbclient18 amd64 1:10.3.13+maria~stretch [3,100 B] Get:2 http://deb.debian.org/debian stretch/main amd64 python3-openssl all 16.2.0-1 [43.8 kB] Get:3 http://nyc2.mirrors.digitalocean.com/mariadb/repo/10.3/debian stretch/main amd64 libmariadb3 amd64 1:10.3.13+maria~stretch [139 kB] Get:4 http://cdn-fastly.deb.debian.org/debian stretch/main amd64 python3-josepy all 1.1.0-2~deb9u1 [27.8 kB] —8<—8<—8<--- But Koha>About still shows: MySQL version: mysql Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.2.22-MariaDB, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 5.2 I am running Koha 18.11.03.000 on Debian 9 Stretch. Any ideas? Thank you, Father Vlasie IT Director St. Photios Orthodox Theological Seminary 510 Collier Way, Etna, CA 96027, U.S.A.
