Hi Liz, Thank you a million for sponsoring the Koha Community site all this time. I will be very happy to help too. A cost sheet per year for hosting, running the site, and for maintaining the Koha portal content, etc. will help contributors decide on the period of sponsoring the site for. Thanks, Massoud Alshareef KnowledgeWare Technologies Est. > On 6 Jun 2018, at 2:56 PM, koha-request(a)lists.katipo.co.nz wrote: > > Send Koha mailing list submissions to > koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > https://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > koha-request(a)lists.katipo.co.nz > > You can reach the person managing the list at > koha-owner(a)lists.katipo.co.nz > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Koha digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

Framework warnings on upgrade to 18.05 (From 17.11.04)
by Elaine Bradtke 05 Jun '18

05 Jun '18

Background: We have a test system that we run on a different server. When we first installed Koha (3.?) many years ago, I managed to corrupt the default framework. I then overwrote the default framework with a clean one in the production site. We periodically clone the database from production to the test site to keep it fairly current. However, it appears that the framework isn't being copied (otherwise, I don't know how to explain the differences - the items in the list are not things we've changed, but may have resulted when the framework was corrupted). Below is a message generated while upgrading the test site to 18.05. Comparing this list to the production site, I find that the production site is 'standard' and test site deviates from this. *Question 1:* If I import the (standard) Default framework from production and overwrite the one in test, will this correct the problem, or do I need to import and overwrite all the frameworks? Do we need to do anything with the system to implement the changes in the subsidiary frameworks? *Question 2:* If you clone the database, does it not include the frameworks? (warning, I'm not the one who does this task, so I don't fully understand it). Is there something we need to do to make sure that it does copy the frameworks? Here's the message from the test site: WARNING: The Default framework is now considered as authoritative for Koha to MARC mappings. We have found that your additional frameworks contained 43 mapping(s) that deviate from the standard mappings. Please look at the following list and consider if you need to add them again in Default (possibly as a second mapping). Field 250$a in framework ART: Mapping to biblioitems.volume has been adjusted.

by David Holoshka 04 Jun '18

04 Jun '18

Hi, Starting from version 17.11-02 we have made extensive changes to koha to get elastic search working in koha. We don't run the zebra server but we see an error in the about box saying that it is not running. Everything seems to work but we are wondering what functions need zebra even though we only use ES ? Best Regards, Dave

Error when searching using Zebra index 'arp'
by Barton Chittenden 04 Jun '18

04 Jun '18

I'm trying to trouble-shoot an error with the 'arp' index (accelerated reading point -- indexed at 526$d). I'm searching for arp:14 In the staff client and opac and getting no results. I added 'request' to zebra_loglevels in $KOHA_CONF and found the following error: 09:30:50-04/06 zebrasrv(98) [request] Search biblios ERROR 114 1 1+0 RPN @attrset Bib-1 @attr 1=9013 @attr 2=3 14 A google search for 'zebra ERROR 114' lead me to https://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/2015-September/043604.html Which fixed the error by switching from GRS to DOM ... I didn't think that was the problem, but I checked anyway, $KOHA_CONF *does* show <zebra_bib_index_mode>dom</zebra_bib_index_mode> http://lists.indexdata.dk/pipermail/zebralist/2009-November/002326.html Says "I am told by those in the know that the ERROR 114 refers to an unknown / unmapped MARC field." Here's how it's indexed in biblio-koha-indexdefs.xml:  <index_subfields tag="526" subfields="d"> <target_index>arp:w</target_index> <target_index>arp:n</target_index> </index_subfields> in biblio-zebra-indexdefs.xsl: <xslo:for-each select="marc:subfield"> <xslo:if test="contains('d', @code)"> <z:index name="arp:w arp:n"> <xslo:value-of select="."/> </z:index> </xslo:if> </xslo:for-each> According to indexdata's git site: "error 114 - unsupported use attribute." http://git.indexdata.com/?p=idzebra-moved-to-github.git;a=commit;h=10d6601c… Looking in ccl.properties and bib1.att, I see that we have two indexes using attribute 9013; I'm not sure if that's the problem or not... grep 9013 /etc/koha/zebradb/ccl.properties not-onloan-count 1=9013 4=109 arp 1=9013 r=r grep 9013 /etc/koha/zebradb/biblios/etc/bib1.att att 9013 not-onloan-count att 9013 arp Any suggestions welcome!

cover images
by Lisa Peel 04 Jun '18

04 Jun '18

Hello I am in the process of preparing to migrate one library catalogue (non-koha) into another (koha) and have a question regarding cover images. One location/library is using Google Images for their cover images but the new one would like to add their own to any records where an image is not available from Google. Is it possible to do this? So for example, koha would initially look for a local cover image and if there is not one available pull the one from Google Images. They also have some issues regarding some of the Google images which are not a consistent size (some seem to come out as small thumb nails rather than the ‘regular’ size but I don’t know if there is something in koha to standardise this. Any help appreciated!

Single Sign-On via Drupal
by Michael Kuhn 03 Jun '18

03 Jun '18

Hi The KDZ Zentrum für Verwaltungsforschung in Vienna (Austria) is trying to connect Koha to the user database of a Drupal 7 instance via CAS. The goal would be to have a Single Sign-On / SSO solution with the user database of Drupal. No Koha-only user accounts would be required. At the moment we are using the CAS module of Drupal, which provides a CAS server, and have connected it with the CAS authentication plugin of Koha. Authentication and login works, however only if users are already existing in Koha. The problem is: users are not automatically created in Koha, so the actual solution does not work without manually creating the user in Koha first. Thus, for the solution to properly work we'd need to find a way to auto-create the user accounts in Koha. 1. We've noted that the Shibboleth plugin has some auto-create option, that the CAS plugin seems to miss. Is there a way to have auto-creation work via CAS also? 2. Instead of the auto-create option, we've been thinking about some automated cron job that imports users in CAS on a regular basis based upon some CSV export provided by Drupal. A delay of a few hours until user accounts are created would be acceptable. Bug 12598 (https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12598) mentions that Koha 18.05 comes with CLI support for the user import tool ("import_patrons.pl"), so we have been considering using that for repetitive user imports. For that purpose, we could easily provide a CSV file in the desired format with Drupal. Does that seem like a doable approach? 3. Besides creating users with the correct user name, we'd have to map access levels to Koha as well. Would that be doable with the CSV import? 4. Setting a password on users in Koha is not necessary, as login should happen via the CAS interface. Is there a way to disable the password? Else we'd consider to just set an impossible-to-guess password for the accounts, so login would only work via Drupal. Has anybody done something like this before? Any hints or ideas would be highly appreciated! Best wishes: Michael -- Geschäftsführer · Diplombibliothekar BBS, Informatiker eidg.
