Cloud-based Koha vs locally hosted Koha
by Jesse Lambertson 10 Dec '14

10 Dec '14

Happy Tuesday everyone, I have a question about installation of Koha. Relative to hosting Koha in the cloud as opposed to on our own local servers on our domain (which I assume most people do), what is the thinking about the ease of installing and updating if it is hosted "externally" versus on our own servers? What steps might drastically change if we install Koha in the cloud? Are there any security issues I should be concerned about in either case? Thank you in advance for your thoughts.

Reindexing after switching from GRS1 to DOM
by Iming Chan 10 Dec '14

10 Dec '14

Dear all, We have changed our indexing method from GRS1 to DOM on last Sunday and as I write (Tuesday), the reindexing of bib records still going and no sign of finishing soon. We only have just over 6,000 bib. records. According to our IT person, reindexing is definitely continuing, but there is no indication how far it has done and no much more to go! Anyone encountered similar experience on the speed of reindexing?

Showing the last item checked out with AJAX circulation
by Owen Leonard 09 Dec '14

09 Dec '14

One of the issues we're having with the new AJAX circulation feature is that we can't take advantage of the speed gains obtained by not showing checkouts by default because we need confirmation that the last item we scanned was successfully checked out. Kyle has offered a patch for Bug 13315, " Add feedback for last item checked out to circulation.pl" which updates the display so that a message shows with information about the last item scanned. Here's a screenshot: http://www.screencast.com/t/qNw2U3hwz I think this is an important improvement, but I'm inclined to do something less obtrusive: http://www.screencast.com/t/1gsa2prF ...on the assumption that the visual aspect of checking out was working fine before AJAX circ, and fixes to AJAX circ should look to returning things to a proven-functional state. However, always assuming that it was better before would prevent us from making improvements, so I'd love to hear others' opinions -- especially from anyone who is running this feature in production. Thanks, -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org

Dears,Set up PluginsKoha version: 3.16.04.000 I set up the Koha plugin system... - Create the directory /var/lib/koha/plugins - Add the lines <pluginsdir>/var/lib/koha/plugins</pluginsdir> <enable_plugins>1</enable_plugins>" to your koha-conf.xml file - Add the line Alias /plugin/ "/var/lib/koha/plugins/" to koha-httpd.conf file - Restart your webserver - Enable UseKohaPlugins system preference. Problem: Plugins still disabled. Plugins disabled! To enable Koha plugins, the system preference UseKohaPlugins must be enabled, and the flag enable_plugins must be set in the Koha configuration file How I can enable Plugins.. Thanks.------------------------------------------------------Sami Al-Asheh

Possible bug -- 3.18 catalog search result list??
by Iming Chan 09 Dec '14

09 Dec '14

Dear all, We have recently upgraded to 3.18, and found a small problem with catalogue records saved since this upgrade. It seems on the search result list on the staff client, bibliographic details are not showing and they include author(s), material type, literary form, publisher and description. While on the search result list on the OPAC, order status is stuck. To illustrate this problem, I have attached 3 screen shots of "From a distance" (music score) and hopefully will be useful to identify the cause of this issue.
