You are getting the 404 error from where? OPAC or the staff client? On Wed 29 Aug, 2018, 12:52 PM Hira Akram, <hira.akram(a)almusnet.com> wrote: > > > Hi > > Thank You. I am able to upload file now.

Hi You can use the upload plugin - upload.pl in the marc framework of your choice. NOTE: if not already configured for that you may need to edit your marc framework. Typically people edit the 856$u field to use the plugin. Hope this helps Indranil.

Public library with student accounts
by Chad Roseburg 29 Aug '18

29 Aug '18

Are there any public libraries working with schools to create accounts for use with various digital services, checkout ...etc.? Just wondering what your process is and what rights the accounts have. Currently, we upload the accounts without checkout privileges so they can just be purged each summer and updated without having to worry about fines and whatnot. The primary use, from my understanding, is for classes needing access to research databases and possibly Overdrive. The reasoning is that they can definitely still get regular accounts and checkout physical items --- vast majority already have regular accounts but can't remember their login creds. However, two public schools have indicated that they would like the accounts to have checkout privileges baked into the auto-generated accounts. Not sure how to maintain the patron database and foresee problems. - Koha can't identify duplicate accounts. Not a limitation of Koha, just that there aren't enough match points to reliably de-dupe accounts. And even if you could ... - Student could get enough overdues to restrict access to databases making class participation difficult. - Duplicate accounts with fines. - ??? Anyone got this figured out? Am I overthinking this? Thank you! -- Chad Roseburg Assoc. Director / IT Automation Dept. North Central Regional Library

Why are there two SIP2 ports in Koha?
by Michael Kuhn 28 Aug '18

28 Aug '18

Hi When using the standard configuration in file "SIPconfig.xml" after enabling and starting the SIP2 servers there are two ports: <service port="8023/tcp" transport="telnet" protocol="SIP/2.00" timeout="60" /> <service port="127.0.0.1:6001/tcp" transport="RAW" protocol="SIP/2.00" client_timeout="600" timeout="60" /> We have just reconfigured the following line port="10.0.0.1:6001/tcp" and our 3M SelfCheck System Model 8420 can successfully connect and communicate via port 6001, without needing to add any sign in commands in expect syntax (which is needed when using port 8023 via telnet, as it is described in https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Setting_up_Koha_SIP_and_3M_machines ). Can someone please explain why there are two ports? Are these just offering the same functionality in two different ways (telnet, RAW), or is it maybe recommended to use telnet for some unknown security reasons?

Re: [Koha] Testing Koha - How to migrate data from Voyager 9 to Koha for testing?
by Ere Maijala 28 Aug '18

28 Aug '18

Hi Ellis, If you mean exporting bibs and holdings from Voyager and importing them to Koha, you can do that but the current Koha versions will treat all the records as bibliographic, which isn't very useful, and it would also lose all the links between bibs and holdings. You could use Michael's utility to move the relevant holdings fields to the bib records. This would work fine unless you have more verbose MFHDs as there's no way to say in the bib record that fields coming from a single MFHD belong together. E.g. if you have multiple holdings with 852 and 856 fields, there's no way to indicate which ones go together. That's why I implemented the not-yet-accepted support for proper holding records in Koha. Regards, Ere Eliseo Gatchalian kirjoitti 28.8.2018 klo 6.03: > Hi Ere, > > Many thanks for the useful info. As an alternative, if I do a full Marc export using https://rocky.uta.edu/doran/voyager/export/ or using the Voyager's Pmarcexport utility, and import it to Koha to stage it for mapping, do you think that would work? > > > Best regards, > Ellis > > -----Original Message----- > From: Koha <koha-bounces(a)lists.katipo.co.nz> On Behalf Of Ere Maijala > Sent: Monday, 27 August 2018 7:30 PM > To: koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz > Subject: Re: [Koha] Testing Koha - How to migrate data from Voyager 9 to Koha for testing? > > Hi, > > I'm not sure how well the migration toolbox works out of the box, but there's one thing worth noting anyway: The vanilla Koha doesn't support MFHD's, which have a pretty important role in Voyager. While in many cases the relevant information can be stored in the bibliographic or item records, we found it necessary to implement support for holdings records in Koha. It, and the previous attempts, haven't really gained traction, but I'm still trying. :) In any case we're currently in the process of converting some Voyager databases to Koha with this custom holdings support. > > There's a Holdings RFC at > <https://apac01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwiki.koh…> and patches at <https://apac01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbugs.koha…>.

Testing Koha - How to migrate data from Voyager 9 to Koha for testing?
by Eliseo Gatchalian 27 Aug '18

27 Aug '18

Hi All, Greetings! ☺ I’ve successfully installed Koha in a test virtual box and hoping to explore more of what it can do and check/match/improve our current workflows. I’d like to test Koha with our actual data we have from Voyager 9.0, and wondering if anyone can point me on a direction of how to migrate our data? I’ve done a search and found, https://github.com/jcamins/koha-migration-toolbox but I am not sure if this would work on the latest Koha version as it seems that last commits was at least 4 years ago. Also, if we are to use the koha-migration-toolbox, from its scripts, it will extract CSV’s of all data, but I can’t seem to find in Koha on how to import those CSV’s? Any step-by-step guide for migrating data would be very helpful? Many thanks in advance guys… ☺ Best regards, Ellis ________________________________ This electronic mail transmission is intended for the named recipients only.
