[Koha 16.05] CGI Error: "script not found or unable to stat: /usr/lib/cgi-bin/img..."
by Craig Butosi 05 Aug '16

05 Aug '16

Hi all, Koha 16.05.02, package install on Ubuntu 14.04. I tried to manually run some cronjobs for testing purposes before we go live in September. One of these is fines.pl, which is located at /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/fines.pl However, When running the following at the commandline $export KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/sites/library2/koha-conf.xml [library2 is our instance name, btw] $export PERL5LIB=/usr/share/koha/lib $/usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/fines.pl No fines are posted to patron account (yes, all sysprefs, circ rules, etc are set-up correctly). Navigating to intranet-error.log, I find the following: [Thu Aug 04 17:10:25.442365 2016] [cgi:error] [pid 2728] [client 209.20.18.21:18385] script not found or unable to stat: /usr/lib/cgi-bin/img, referer: http://rel.rcmusic.ca:8080/cgi-bin/koha/members/pay.pl?borrowernumber=1 I haven't the foggiest why it is searching /usr/lib/cgi-bin/img or how that happened. It's a non-existent directory. Should it not be trying to search elsewhere? Please help! :S C Craig Butosi, MA, MLIS, B Mus (Hons.)

Re: [Koha] Sharing advanced bib editor macros?
by Hernandez, Heather 04 Aug '16

Hi, Barton-- It looks great! There's a stray tilde in the 710 macro, so I'll see if I can log in to edit, and remove that tilde. One question--the page says the macros haven't been tested, but I do use them in my cataloging--do you mean that they haven't been tested by someone else to verify them? Or is it just a standard "buyer beware...use at your own risk" phrase? If the tilde disappears from the 710 macro, then I'm successful!

That's great, Barton & Elaine! This is going to be fun, and will hopefully save a lot of folks some time when they get going with the advanced editor! Barton--are you busy with the Koha US conference? Or can you get started right away? A macro library like the reports library, as Elaine suggests, sounds great to me! Or did you have something else in mind? I'll get working on some more macros to contribute!

Cleaning up lots of duplicates
by Coehoorn, Joel 04 Aug '16

04 Aug '16

I've discovered that due to a mistake a long time ago we have a large number of duplicate biblio records in our system... as much as a third of our database, or possibly even more. This is old enough that the import marc batches have long been cleaned. The good news is these duplicates are mainly for e-Books licensed through EBSCO, where we just have the bibliographic record and an 856u field, with no items or circulation. If I could construct an SQL query to identify the duplicate biblionumbers (excluding an original record for each item), would it be enough to delete database records from the items, biblioitems, and biblios tables, and then fully re-index Zebra to clean these up?

Assuming Debian/Ubuntu, what does printenv give you?

Sharing advanced bib editor macros?
by Hernandez, Heather 04 Aug '16

04 Aug '16

Hi, all-- I was asked if I had created any macros for the advanced cataloging editor, and it made me realize that I had & that it might be good to get some macro sharing going! I'm not sure the best way to share them--perhaps a macro library on https://koha-community.org/ ? Because why type from scratch when you can copy & paste, right?:) These are the macros that I wrote and use, so far: New 3XX fields for photographic print bib record: new 336=‡astill image ǂb sti ǂ2 rdacontent new 337=‡aunmediated ǂb n ǂ2 rdamedia new 338=‡asheet ǂb nb ǂ2 rdacarrier New 540 note for archival material records: new 540=‡aThe San Francisco Maritime NHP possesses physical property rights through ownership of the materials.

Macros in Advanced Cataloging <http://manual.koha-community.org/3.22/en/cataloging.html#macroscataloging> and learned that they are saved as cookies, so are browser-specific, i.e., I'm doing all my Koha work with my Firefox browser on a particular laptop, because that's the browser storing my macros.
