The University of hte South Pacific Library - seeking information on koha
by Elizabeth Fong 19 Sep '17

19 Sep '17

Dear Listserv members The USP Library has a network of 23 Libraries spread through the Pacific in 12 countries - Fiji, Cook Is, Kiribati, Marshall is., Nauru, Niue, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tokelau, Tonga, Tuvalu and Vanuatu. The Library currently operates two ILS - SPYDUS and Athena (no longer supported by the vendor). The Library's preference is for one system. The countries are part of 3 time zones. I seek urgent responses from Koha academic libraries currently using Koha ; a `yes' or `no' will suffice but a paragraph is welcome. This will be most appreciated. 1. Is there a Koha version specific to Academic Libraries? 2. Can Koha be installed in a Windows environment? 3. Is Customer support 24/7? 4. Depending on the severity of the bug, what are the time ranges for solving a bug? 5. Does Koha have a Discovery Layer Service? 6. Does Koha have Predictive text searching? 7. Does Koha include an eRM module? 8. Does Koha have a Mobile Interface and Circulation for Android or iOS or HTML5 Browsers) 9. Does Koha have a Digital Asset Management System? 10. Does Koha have a Dashboard for Analytics Solution? 11. Does Koha have a drag-and-drop feature for creating ad-hoc reports? 12. Is Lending of ebooks possible with Koha? * Already answered: We would like to have truly centralized solution, however, our libraries are located in different countries and in different time zones. Can Koha cater for this so that each library located in different countries can have their respective timestamp to match their local time zone? Elizabeth C.

Spam from BestBookBuddies (OpenLX)
by Owen Leonard 19 Sep '17

19 Sep '17

Has anyone else received spam from "BestBookBuddies - an Initiative of: OpenLX Technologies Pvt. Ltd." ? They recently spammed me and everyone else on my library's contact page. If it were up to me they would be removed from the list of paid support providers, but I don't think the rules explicitly forbid sending spam. -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org

Re: [Koha] Hide MARC View separator
by | dalmeida | 19 Sep '17

Thank you, Mark Alexander and Owen Leonard! It worked thanks to your help! But this code didn't work for my Koha version: $(document).ready(function(){ $("#MARCview").parent().hide(); }); This one did: $(".view a:contains('MARC view')").hide(); Thank you!

Some questions about virtualization.

Hi I have some questions about virtualization. 1. Does anyone use KOHA on virtualized servers? 2. What solution did you choose KVM, LXC / LDX, VMVare, ProxmoxVE or Docker containers? 3. Does it work on production servers or only on test servers? 4. Problems, challenges, thoughts? Tips, hints, guides welcome;) Przemek Kosinski -- ************************************************* Powiatowa i Miejska Biblioteka Publiczna w Skarżysku-Kamiennej www: www.biblioteka24.eu mail: p.kosinski(a)biblioteka24.eu *************************************************

Problem with migration from KOHA 3.20 to 16.11.11
by Przemek Kosiński 18 Sep '17

18 Sep '17

Hello, I have some problems with migration to new server and migrate to new version koha. On the old server with KOHA 3.20 I made the command "koha-dump biblio-main" (it's an instance name) - everything is fine - backup done. and On new test server with KOHA 16.11 execute command koha-restore biblio-main-2017-09-13.sql.gz biblio-main-2017-09-13.tar.gz Serwer parameters: Server: Ubuntu 14.04 LST Mysql: mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.5.57, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 6.3 Apache: Server version: Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) Restored?

Wrong/Truncate Calculation in Acquisition
by vinod mishra 16 Sep '17

16 Sep '17

Dear All, Probably i am facing problem related to bug https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=18471 in Koha 16.11.07 but even after upgrading to on my test machine to 16.11.11 and restored the database, previous calculation does not get corrected and still showing the same first 1/2 digit of entire numerical value if more than 1000. Please suggest. With Regards, Vinod Kumar Mishra, Assistant Librarian, Biju Patnaik Central Library (BPCL), NIT Rourkela, Sundergadh-769008, Odisha, India.

Internal server error when trying to open Budget or Funds
by Michael Kuhn 15 Sep '17

15 Sep '17

Hi When trying to click "Budgets" or "Funds" in Koha menu "Administration > Acquisition parameters" just a blank page appears, saying "Internal server error". Like this, of course, no new budget or fund can be added. I am experiencing this on Koha 16.11.1 as well as on Koha 17.05.1 (but not on Koha 16.11.4). I tried this as a user with the rights of a "superlibrarian" as well as with a user with fewer permissions. Has anyone experienced the same and can help, or should I maybe open a bug case?
