new import

Hi all, I just imported a collection (from Winnebago-Spectrum) to Koha for one of my schools. I have noticed that we seem to have quite a few biblios / records that we have "no items available" for. ie: one item will show as: Availability: No items available: The (seemingly) same book will show right below it as : Availability: *Copies available:* Alma High School (1), for an example http://198.111.156.193/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=buddy We have the entire collection turned in for the summer, so we do not have any checked out, and we cleaned up the Winnebago-Spectrum system (as best we could) before the export. I am having our librarian look over the system now, to make sure that it looks correct. But I'm starting to wonder if there is a way to remove the records that show "No items available" ?? Is there a way to clean this up, and only display items that we have available with copies in our collection ?? thanks for any advise on this. -S

"appears to pull up a basic Koha version 3.03 -- which is somewhat out of date." --- thanks, I'll keep that in mind....I've been using that version for a couple years now at another school, and it's rock solid. If it ain't broke...... "search function apparently can't find anything at all..." --- sorry...was doing a couple rebuilds and a quick VM backup....feel free to try now.... I have a feeling I may know where these odd records/issues came from.... I tested importing records 2 or 3 times before I finally got them to my liking, and used the following process to clean up the database between tries. http://manual.koha-community.org/3.18/en/resetkohadb.html It was recommended that: "you'll want to do a full zebra reindex once it's been reloaded" In between imports I did a rebuild_nozebra.pl ?? are these equivalent ?? or is there another command i should run after I delete the data in the specified tables ?? -S On Wed, Jun 10, 2015 at 10:03 AM, Paul A <paul.a(a)navalmarinearchive.com> wrote: > At 09:36 AM 6/10/2015 -0400, Scott Owen wrote: > >> Hi all, >> I just imported a collection (from Winnebago-Spectrum) to Koha for one of >> my schools. >> I have noticed that we seem to have quite a few biblios / records that we >> have "no items available" for. >> ie: one item will show as: Availability: No items available: >> The (seemingly) same book will show right below it as : Availability: >> *Copies >> available:* Alma High School (1), >> >> for an example http://198.111.156.193/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=buddy >> > > This link appears to pull up a basic Koha version 3.03 -- which is > somewhat out of date.

If it ain't >broke...... [there's no need to cc me personally, let's keep it on the list] I agree, we use 3.08 v24 -- lean, mean, very fast. I just would point out that this list tends to follow the latest versions (+/- 3.18 currently) which have made considerable advances in many areas (we're not a lending library, just reference, so do not need most of the enhancements.) I might also suggest to you that 3.06|3.08 made a quantum leap forward on the data cataloguing side which we have leveraged to enormous user (staff and public) satisfaction. But I repeat -- Koha moves ahead thanks to enormous efforts by a great team, and it might well be advantageous for you to at least look into an "upgrade." >"search function apparently can't find anything at all..." >--- sorry...was doing a couple rebuilds and a quick VM backup....feel free >to try now.... It *looks* as though you have three more or less identical biblio records, only one of which has an "item" (952). This might not be what you want (but it's probably trivial to delete them. It looks as though you've only got some 800 records, so you could even do this manually -- or fairly simply query your db directly to find biblios with no items: SELECT biblionumber FROM biblio WHERE biblionumber NOT IN (SELECT biblionumber FROM items); >I have a feeling I may know where these odd records/issues came from.... >I tested importing records 2 or 3 times before I finally got them to my >liking, and used the following process to clean up the database between tries. > ><http://manual.koha-community.org/3.18/en/resetkohadb.html>http://manual.koha-community.org/3.18/en/resetkohadb.html > >It was recommended that:Â >"you'll want to do aÂ full zebra reindex once it's been reloaded" > >In between imports I did a <http://rebuild_nozebra.pl>rebuild_nozebra.pl >?? are these equivalent ?? or is there another command i should run after >I delete the data in the specified tables ?? I don't have a running version 3.03 any more, but if you're using Zebra (syspref NoZebra off) it should be something like: su koha (or whoever the right user is) cd /usr/share/koha ./bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -a -r -v ./bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -r -v -x Best -- Paul --- Maritime heritage and history, preservation and conservation, research and education through the written word and the arts. <http://NavalMarineArchive.com> and <http://UltraMarine.ca>
