Data Problem error
by Scott Owen 04 Sep '18

04 Sep '18

So one of my Koha boxes kicked this error up: _______________________________________________________________________ Data problems Some of your tables have problems with their auto_increment values which may lead to data loss. *You should not ignore this warning.* The problem is that InnoDB does not keep auto_increment across SQL server restarts (it is only set in memory). So on server startup the auto_increment values are set to max(table.id)+1. To know how to avoid this problem see the related wiki page: DBMS auto increment fix <https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/DBMS_auto_increment_fix> Problems foundCheckouts The following ids exist in both tables *issues* and *old_issues*: 18862, 18863 _____________________________________________________________________ Is the link provided in the error message still current ?? Should I follow it ?? and/or ...is the error kicked by the two items 18862 and 18863 ??

Announcing a new user feedback plugin for Koha ILS
by Indranil Das Gupta 04 Sep '18

04 Sep '18

Kia ora! The Koha OPAC is a rich environment that provides several facilities to its users. Many libraries around the world have built a complete digital presence (aka library portal) around it. Yet one feature that is missing natively in the Koha OPAC is an user feedback form. On the happy occasion of Janmasthami, I am pleased to inform you about release of a new Koha plugin - the AskALibrarian plugin that adds the ability to allows Koha's OPAC users to send a direct feedback to the library staff. The plugin is licensed under GNU GPL v3.0 (in simple English that means it is Free/Libre/Mukt Software) and is available for download from our GitHub repository here - https://github.com/l2c2technologies/koha-plugin-askalibrarian There is a blogpost on it at http://blog.l2c2.co.in/index.php/2018/09/01/askalibrarian-koha-feedback-for… And an explainer video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_IJ2unkvbs With regards, Indranil Das Gupta L2C2 Technologies Phone : +91-98300-20971 WWW : http://www.l2c2.co.in Blog : http://blog.l2c2.co.in IRC : indradg on irc://irc.freenode.net Twitter : indradg

Error: Invalid username or password after upgrade to 18.05
by Eugen Bastron 04 Sep '18

04 Sep '18

Dear colleagues, after upgrade from 17 to 18.05 I get error if I try to connect to Koha with the admin user. I have already tried to change the password in MySQL and then in koha-conf, but without result. With my admin user I can connect to the database over terminal. Maybe someone could help me resolve this error? Best regards, Eugen Bastron

ISBN display
by Rubén Fernández Asensio 04 Sep '18

04 Sep '18

Hello all, I understand that by MARC specifications the ISBN hyphens "may be system generated as display constants" and are not supposed to be carried in the MARC record: http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd020.html However all OPAC views show them without hyphens and I haven't found any system preference to switch them on. On the contrary, I found references to a patch to suppress them, at least in MARC view: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=2592 What's the appropriate way to switch on hyphen display in Normal and ISBD views, if possible at all? I'm using Koha 18.05. Ruben
