Database without tables
by Angel 13 Jul '15

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hello all. I'm trying to install koha-common in Debian Jessie but the instance remains empty, I don't know why. Details: the server is a remote server accessing using ssh, operative system is Debian Jessie, the server where I've installed koha is the same running mysql so I understand I have to use koha-create - --create-db, but the result is a warning about empty instance and no staff user created. If I obseve the database using mysl, I can see the database but wiht no tables into. If I go to OPAC or intra sites, the only I get is a field to write a search and nothing else. Regards and thanks in advanced. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJVm/+FAAoJEPploz+wCpxH+9IP/2JKpiNVsZjw7Kdb1O9qjbvE bZkZRxUTU2opmeXUYqY1mhb8feP6PRweYDNB4MxxVIfDv1iV+wA/geDS/XDDT2I5 Tw1sCwYmDcyoOlyCH5kqcLpstUaVWSYK4GRXi4atPT60m1OzqOZqhYKe15TfqgTy n6K9pSZBsk3GBG3yjaCs33Qrk/BO2bqy/qCsKJsd9YyPKaqm/YtEbqOEddhck4Lt 1oeNLSh11Sx8amOO1KjzNCeIyzhhXT/TJAOnrxvWqMDoayf+ipnhZZ6hmIhGmPmZ /3LpXrkdpvSOFR27f9LWTJj+0d3esJc50MEli6ldOuceZP98hIBCo4s9RDa8jqlk /53PPzZXBVwOzN8N5aQ0Z5dmPXqHFqumW18uf1VgMRTioX3+jzQ2GUL4GhDeadQ5 /e+oQ7ptQQ4rxwKelSvsVbk1xE+gq3ywelqR/8voAGvYwvgDPdude7xUjq+zZJww 4L1W+rJqtsS9Hni5VOmfnHtTXGzjrA8t3Wre3F9VBMJWbzHhaXunUzyhF20cqdeq e4ygD4k2YxZJaCIAZewxF4Iq0pITESdYFvVIjpWFU3we3hy/0OnYTk5PCM/l3IQG nUSmXOI6lzHxUh1E/GLhSt49JrxUh6VRj5GVf9jxGKe8pU4pp75FvEnRxZNWXRMI r2bPLvYE2t8LoNcePVPD =umIn -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Use koha as a reference database
by mobam 12 Jul '15

12 Jul '15

Dear koha-community! This is an amazing project! Thank you all for it! We somehow want to divert Koha slightly from its intended use – and we asked ourselves two questions: 1. Has anyone ever did the same? (My forum search suggests: no) 2. Is it a good idea? Does it make sense? Or are there better alternatives? First of all, we’re no library and we won’t loan books or any other stuff. Basically, we 'just' plan to build a comprehensive database of all relevant bibliographic data in a certain field and continually update it with new data. This database will mainly contain books, book chapters and journal articles and some grey literature. For the last two types, we also want to provide pdf files – if they are open accessible and we have author’s permisson (if needed). Why did we choose Koha? The idea behind our decision was to have a multi featured user interface, where one is enabled to do professional searches within a huge list of literature and where the software also provides additional features. Specifically, we were looking for an OPAC, like the ones we knew from university libraries. The next rationale for Koha was the integrated search function for MARC records, in order to get quality bibliographic data very easily. And last but not least, the possibility to save or export tha gathered data in a format, that is likely to be used in the future, so that the work will not turn out to be for nothing at some point. Do you think, what we are planning to do, is a good idea?

Does it make sense to carry 'prog' as an option in OPACFallback anymore?
by Indranil Das Gupta 11 Jul '15

11 Jul '15

Hi all, As we move towards 3.22, does it really make sense to carry 'prog' as an option, and that too the default option in the OPACFallback syspref? What is everyone's opinion? http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=13291 cheers -- Indranil Das Gupta L2C2 Technologies Phone : +91-98300-20971 Blog : http://indradg.randomink.org/blog IRC : indradg on irc://irc.freenode.net Twitter : indradg -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Please exchange editable Office documents only in ODF Format.

Cataloguing Serials help?
by catarinafrc 11 Jul '15

11 Jul '15

I have posted this question a while ago, but not much help was given. I have never worked with Koha before and had no training on it, and even though I read the manual and search for similar topics no one has the answer for me. I have been trying to catalog serials, but it just wont catalog it the right way. *1 -* As an exemple: I have created a subscription for a specific serial and tried to create the items... the problem is after I created it, the appearance is different from other libraries examples I have been following. Instead of just appearing just one item, all seven of them appear... is it the way it's supposed to be? <http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/file/n5846829/SERIALS.png> *2 -* Other problem is: how can I, during the cataloguing, associate the title & author of the article to a specific item? This is not specified in the manual. I want to make a connection between the articles on each serial volume with that specific volume, but no field on my record allows that... I know these are very basic questions for some but I seriously just started now, and need help.

Mis-match in the labelling 952$b and 952$c between staff client and OPAC?
by Indranil Das Gupta 11 Jul '15

11 Jul '15

Hi all, on opac-detail.pl the table column reads - "Current location" which is actually "Shelving location" (952$c) in the staff client item edit screen, where 952$b is labelled as "Current location" should this be treated as a bug? I'm on 3.20.1 thanks -- Indranil Das Gupta Phone : +91-98300-20971 Blog : http://indradg.randomink.org/blog IRC : indradg on irc://irc.freenode.net Twitter : indradg -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Please exchange editable Office documents only in ODF Format.

Re: [Koha] Multiple Items for a Single Record
by Mahesh Angadi 09 Jul '15

09 Jul '15

Dear Professionals, At the time of import through MARCEDIT, if you are having say 3 items, i.e., 3 copies of a book (with 3 different barcode) attached to a bibliographic record, then an ideal mechanism should be as follows:- ************ Bibliographic Record Details with Marc Tag **************** 952$a*********Item 1 Details **************** 952$a*********Item 2 Details **************** 952$a*********Item 3 Details **************** Otherwise, for the same record/title, 3 different bibliographic records will be created and each will have one item attached to it. Similarly as Bob Birchall from Calyx suggested, all item details for eg., 952$a*****952Sb*****952$c**** should be in one line, otherwise you will get multiple bibliographic records for the same title with item details scatterd amongst them. -- Mr. Mahesh M.
