Version dependencies
by Tom Hanstra 18 Mar '16

18 Mar '16

Where can I find information about the proper version of Yaz and Zebra that will work well with a given version of Koha? I am attempting to install Koha 22.4 and am not sure if the most recent versions of the support software will work with that. I don't run either Debian or Suse so don't know what versions of Yaz and Zebra would be installed with packages on those OS's. And I have not come across the information in the documentation. Right now, I'm having compilation problems between the Net::Z3950:Z00M module and Yaz when it all gets compiled together and used by Koha: Software error: Can't load '/usr/local/lib64/perl5/auto/Net/Z3950/ZOOM/ZOOM.so' for module Net::Z3950::ZOOM: libyaz.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory at /usr/share/perl5/XSLoader.pm line 68. at /usr/local/lib64/perl5/Net/Z3950/ZOOM.pm line 10. Compilation failed in require at /usr/local/lib64/perl5/ZOOM.pm line 4. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/lib64/perl5/ZOOM.pm line 4. Compilation failed in require at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Context.pm line 101. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Context.pm line 101.

Compilation failed in require at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/mainpage.pl line 24. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/mainpage.pl line 24. It could be that I don't have the right version of Yaz when installing/configuring that module. I cannot be sure because I don't know what version I should use, so I just grabbed the latest one. How can I be sure I have the right versions of everything? Thanks, Tom -- *Tom Hanstra* *Sr. Systems Administrator* hanstra(a)nd.edu <http://library.nd.edu/>

Dear Colleagues, Our last ILS would change the status of items from "on order" to "available" when an item was checked in. Is there any *simple* way, like checking in an item, to automatically change the not for loan status of items from "on order" to "available"?
