Need help to open a staff patron
by Mahmudul Hasan 29 Jun '16

29 Jun '16

Dear All I am new here. So, I have read the manual and seen nothing to solve this problem. According to manuual whenever i am going to add a new patron. It can not. At the first time when i was logged in following warning message shows and that is "You are logged in as the database administrative user. This is not recommended because some parts of Koha will not function as expected when using this account. Please log in instead with a regular staff account. To create a staff account, create a library, a patron category 'Staff' and add a new patron. Then give this patron permissions from 'More' in the toolbar." According to the message i went to the top of the site to set library from there i chose the canterville. After that i clicked on create patron>new patron and from drop down menu choose staff. There a message came that is "can not add patron. please add a patron category." So i clicked on the patron category. There i add a new patron category named College Staff. Again i continued but again this message comes. At last i went to tools>patron list> new patron> create a new patron list> Give name "Staff">save and following message comes. Software error: Can't call method "patron_list_id" on an undefined value at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/patron_lists/add-modify.pl line 55. For help, please send mail to the webmaster ([no address given]), giving this error message and the time and date of the error. How can i fix it? I have no idea. Please help me. Even i can not open the list. There also show same type message. By the way I have installed on the following Koha version-16.05.00.000 server platform- ubuntu 16.04 LTS amd64 method of installation-marc21 Thanks in advance. Regards Mahmud

OCLC Connexion users on Mac OS
by Eric Phetteplace 28 Jun '16

28 Jun '16

Hello Collective Wisdom, Is anyone an OCLC Connexion user that also happens to use Mac OS X? We're a Mac school (♥︎) and the desktop client only runs on Windows. But we learned today that the website's export function, which worked fine with our prior ILS Millennium, only exports records in MARC8 encoding and not UTF-8, so Koha doesn't work with it. All our work around options look bleak: using something like WINE to run the client on a Mac, asking our staff to dual boot or run a VM, exporting to a file instead & importing that into Koha. They'll work but they're much more inconvenient than the web client. If anyone has a better idea I'd be grateful. Best, Eric Phetteplace Systems Librarian California College of the Arts libraries.cca.edu | vault.cca.edu 510.594.3660 2>/dev/null

Round the World Koha Speaking Tour
by Joann Ransom 27 Jun '16

27 Jun '16

Hi everyone, I have a few months available and am planning a round the world speaking tour starting late August this year – so really soon! I would love to visit as many countries as I can with strong Koha presences and I am looking for partners to help make this a viable proposition. What I am seeking your help with is libraries, vendors or individuals who would be willing to ‘host’ me ie accommodation, domestic travel, a bit of hospitality. I don’t need posh – happy to homestay J In exchange I would love to speak on Koha origins, Koha community or Te Takere (which is a truly awesome public library / community centre I have developed over the last 4 years) and / or mix and mingle in gatherings. I’m basically happy to sing for my supper in any way that is required J. My draft itinerary is set out below and if anyone is able to help make this happen personally or by passing this email on to someone who can help that would be awesome. I’m so excited at the thought of meeting many of you in this great global Koha family that we have created. Many thanks Jo. Draft itinerary: (I need to travel in one direction around the globe) Philippines, Malaysia, India, Turkey, Greece, France, Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, Sweden, Norway, UK, Ireland, USA, Colombia, Chile, Argentina. *Joann Ransom* *Chief Executive Officer* *DDI* 06 366 0841 | *Mobile* 027 320 6923 jransom(a)tetakere.org.nz *Ph.* 06 368 1953 *www.tetakere.org.nz* <http://www.tetakere.org.nz/> Chief Executive Te Horowhenua Trust.

SQL problem- showing results when they are zero.
by Raymund Delahunty 27 Jun '16

27 Jun '16

We have a quite complex budget and funds structure which is making writing reports somewhat challenging. For example, we have struggled at modify the report below, to have it show lines when both Expenditure AND Commitments are zero. When both are zero, the line is simply omitted from the result. We have not seen any results where Expenditure is zero, but where Commitments is not (a possible scenario, of course), so we are not sure if it is the Expenditures being zero that is the underlying problem. For example running the query of the CSM College library shows only 36 lines of results rather than the expected 44. So 8 have zero in both Exp / Comms. Can someone suggest how we might add in the missing 8 lines. SELECT budget_name AS 'Fund Name', sort1 as 'Subject Fund', FORMAT(sum(valSpent),2) AS 'Expenditure', FORMAT(sum(valOnOrder),2) AS 'Commitments' FROM (SELECT b.budget_name, o.sort1, sum(o.unitprice*o.quantity) AS valSpent, 0 AS valOnOrder FROM aqorders o LEFT JOIN aqbudgets b USING (budget_id) WHERE o.datereceived IS NOT NULL AND o.sort1 IN ('CSM Act & Direct','CSM Animation','CSM Architecture','CSM CCC','CSM Ceramic Design','CSM Charges','CSM Collab Perf','CSM Enterprise','CSM Fashion','CSM Film','CSM Fine Art','CSM Foundation','CSM Graphic Design','CSM Innov & Imagin','CSM Jewellery','CSM PDP','CSM Photography','CSM Pro & Indu Des','CSM Qref & General','CSM Replacements','CSM Samples','CSM Textiles','CSM Journals','CSM e-Act & Direct','CSM e-Animation','CSM e-Architecture','CSM e-CCC','CSM e-Ceramic Design','CSM e-Charges','CSM e-Collab Perf','CSM e-Enterprise','CSM e-Fashion','CSM e-Film','CSM e-Fine Art','CSM e-Foundation','CSM e-Graphic Design','CSM e-Innov & Imagin','CSM e-Jewellery','CSM e-PDP','CSM e-Photography','CSM e-Pro & Indu Des','CSM e-Qref & General','CSM e-Replacements','CSM e-Samples','CSM e-Textiles','CSM e-Journals') GROUP BY o.sort1 UNION ALL SELECT b.budget_name, o.sort1, 0 AS valSpent, sum(o.listprice*o.quantity) AS valOnOrder FROM aqorders o LEFT JOIN aqbudgets b USING (budget_id) WHERE o.sort1 IN ('CSM Act & Direct','CSM Animation','CSM Architecture','CSM CCC','CSM Ceramic Design','CSM Charges','CSM Collab Perf','CSM Enterprise','CSM Fashion','CSM Film','CSM Fine Art','CSM Foundation','CSM Graphic Design','CSM Innov & Imagin','CSM Jewellery','CSM PDP','CSM Photography','CSM Pro & Indu Des','CSM Qref & General','CSM Replacements','CSM Samples','CSM Textiles','CSM Journals','CSM e-Act & Direct','CSM e-Animation','CSM e-Architecture','CSM e-CCC','CSM e-Ceramic Design','CSM e-Charges','CSM e-Collab Perf','CSM e-Enterprise','CSM e-Fashion','CSM e-Film','CSM e-Fine Art','CSM e-Foundation','CSM e-Graphic Design','CSM e-Innov & Imagin','CSM e-Jewellery','CSM e-PDP','CSM e-Photography','CSM e-Pro & Indu Des','CSM e-Qref & General','CSM e-Replacements','CSM e-Samples','CSM e-Textiles','CSM e-Journals') and o.datereceived IS NULL and o.orderstatus<>'cancelled' GROUP BY o.sort1) AS CSMorders GROUP BY sort1 ORDER BY budget_name ASC Many thanks.
