Help urgently needed
by Angela Davies 24 Aug '24

24 Aug '24

Kia Ora I work at a volunteer library and we have been running Koha for just over 2 years. Until now everything has gone well until Friday afternoon. The system seems to have lost all but the first few items of data entered in 2022. All the reports come up blank and searching books and patrons also does not work. We can't use the system to issue or return books. We do not have anyone with experience setting up software so it would be good if someone with major knowledge could log in to the laptop. Thank you for any help Angela Davies

Connecting OCLC Tipasa to Koha (using NCIP)
by Alex Buckley 22 Aug '24

22 Aug '24

Hi Koha community, We were wondering, has anyone in the community looked at connecting OCLC's Tipasa to Koha using NCIP? The purpose of this would be so libraries do not have to manage Inter-Library Loans (ILL) in two different places: Tipasa and Koha. A few years ago, we got an NCIP server running alongside Koha. However, OCLC noted they needed to undertake development work before NCIP integration with Koha would work. OCLC has already implemented NCIP integration with Alma, Horizon, Millennium, Sierra and Symphony: https://help.oclc.org/Resource_Sharing/Tipasa/Third-party_integrations/Thir… We would be interested to hear if anyone else has looked at, or talked with OCLC, about doing this integration? Thanks in advance. Kind regards, Alex

490 indicator 1 question
by SYDT - Frank Chou 21 Aug '24

21 Aug '24

Dear All, One of our librarians has brought to our attention that when they set the 490 field with indicator 1 as "1#$aFormosa$v1" in a record, it does not display in the bibliographic detail page as expected. For example, the series title "Formosa;1" does not appear in the expected location: Contributor(s): Xu, Xiuhui Material type: Text Series: <-- "Formosa;1" does not display here when 490 1# is used. However, when the indicator 1 is set to "0," they can see "Formosa;1" displayed in the correct position. Could we be misunderstanding the meaning of "0 - Series not traced"? Please advise.

Problem with 24.05.01 windows stalls with "processing" box
by spazzali＠magritte.it 20 Aug '24

20 Aug '24

Hi everybody we have a Koha 23.11 with it_IT language installed and well running on a Debian 11 system. While doing a ordinary system update (sudo apt get update / sudo apt get upgrade) I'm asked to change repository for Koha-common from 23 to 24. I agreed. The update seems to reach the end without any error and when I log in the version installed is 24.05.01 But trying to open a bibio record from intranet interface a box with the word "Processing..." appears and the windows stalls. I attach a screenshot of the "Processing..." box and the installation log. Koha logs seem clean. If you have any idea it will be very helpful. thanks tommaso

hidden record
by Сычев Игорь Алексеевич 20 Aug '24

20 Aug '24

Hello! How can I hide an record in OPAC? But this record should be available to the librarian. In the previous ILS, it was possible to put "d" (excluded) in the 05 position of leader UNIMARC. For example: <leader>01104dam0 2200277 4500</leader> Good Luck! Igor A. Sychev Tomsk Polytechnic University https://lib.tpu.ru

High CPU usage, slow OPAC/Staff interface, with memcache
by Daniel Owens 19 Aug '24

19 Aug '24

I am running Koha 24.05.03.000 on Ubuntu 24.04 with 8 vCPU cores and 32 GB of RAM. Recently I found that the VPS was running at 100% CPU usage and discovered that memcache was not running. The high CPU usage would cause it to crash. To solve this, I started memcache and confirmed it was running and followed the instructions at https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_Tuning_Guide. It seemed to run better for a short time. But it is back up to 100% usage, which slows it down considerably. When I run top to see what is using the CPU, it shows many opac-search.pl running on many processes. Is that normal? Are there other things I can do to reign in CPU usage? Daniel
