Everything listed as "not renewable"
by mpw 01 Aug '17

01 Aug '17

I'm running Koha version 17.05.01 on Debian 8.8. All of the items that are checked out are labeled as "Not renewable (0 of 0 renewals remaining)". I've tried changing the settings in "Circulation and fine rules" in several different ways but nothing makes any difference. While researching this problem I've noticed two other mentions of the same thing but neither of them with a real solution. -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Everything-listed-as-not-renewable-tp5940… Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

it should theoretically work, but i didn't try it... note, that in mysql tables biblio and biblioitems aren't all data, which are normally in Marcxml record... co the MARC will be incomplete! but if you do not have backup, you don't have many options...

I set up Koha a few months ago and we're still learning the system. One thing we've noticed that presumably is not normal is that every few days the searching capability dies for some reason or other. My guess is that it has something to do with Zebra. I occasionally get a message from my logrotate cronjob: Zebra already stopped for instance xxx. When I check, there are no koha or zebra processes running. I can restore the search capability by restarting Koha with "invoke-rc.d koha-common restart". Presumably some daemon or other dies but I haven't been able to figure out which one. Maybe it happens during the regular cronjobs? Does anybody have any idea how I can figure out what's happening? One workaround I'm considering is setting up a regular cronjob to restart koha-common regularly, but that doesn't strike me as being a very elegant solution. -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Searching-capability-dies-every-few-days-… Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------ Message: 4 Date: Mon, 31 Jul 2017 17:18:12 +0200 From: Marc Véron <veron(a)veron.ch> To: koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz Subject: Re: [Koha] Impossible to renew items Message-ID: <7249b1e4-68b2-9b61-6ff1-e9ba3aca0e64(a)veron.ch> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed Hi Matthew I tried to reproduce the issue (on current master), however no luck.

Error 500 when trying to upload batch of local cover images
by Vasiliki Mela 31 Jul '17

31 Jul '17

Hello, I am trying to upload around 400 local cover images in a batch and I get a 500 error An error has occurred! *Error 500* This message may have been caused by any of the following reasons: - You made use of an external link to an item that is no longer available - You followed an outdated link e.g. from a search engine or a bookmark - You tried to access a page that needs authentication - An internal link in the client is broken and the page does not exist What's next? - Use top menu bar to navigate to another part of Koha. - To report a broken link or any other issue, please contact the Koha Administrator. Send email <library(a)ert.gr> I followed the instructions ( http://manual.koha-community.org/3.22/en/uploadlocalimages.html) created a zip that includes the image files and a .txt that connects each one with a biblio number. I even tried with only two cover images. I have no problem uploading one by one, but it takes time. I have Koha version 16.05.03.000 in Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS Any help would be appreciated. *Vasiliki Mela* * ERT S.A. Hellenic Broadcasting Corporation Archives Department Library*

System not generating check-in and check-out messages
by Admire Mutsikiwa 31 Jul '17

31 Jul '17

Hi I am running Koha . I have configured and test that my Koha server is sending messages. However, it appears my Koha system is not generating message to add to the mail queue. I am testing with a particular patron account and have enabled Item -check-in and item check-out notification by email. However, when I check the Notices Tab in the user account , I am getting the message " There is no record of any messages that have been sent to this patron " Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
