Koha Email Question
by Phillip Ponchot 21 Jul '14

21 Jul '14

I've spent the last two days trying to resolve this problem and I am not even sure I fully understand it. Koha does not appear to be sending out email. I am using Koha 3.12 I am using Ubuntu 12.04 I am using Postfix port 25 I can send an email from commandline as such: mail -s "This is working" xxxxx.xxxxx.xxxxx CC: xxx.xxx.xxx This is working. Ctrl D I've checked logs: /var/log/mail.log, /var/log/mail-err.log. I've checked the koha logs. Nothing seems to show that there has been an attempt to send email from Koha. Postfix does show it it is running. I've check my processes and Postfix show up and is monitoring port 25. I am using a relay that we used on the old server and it works. I've checked crontab to make sure that the koha messing queue is working. I've checked the settings to make sure the Enhanced Messaging Preferences are turned on. Is there somewhere I need to go to turn on email in Koha? I did notice that each Patron Category has "none" under the messaging. I also notice that I can not turn on "item due" or "advanced notice" as they have a dash. Am I correct in assuming that this messaging category is by default on? Any clarification of how to determine if Koha is in fact setup to send email would be appreciated including steps to set it up. Thanks Phillip

Koha/Evergreen Comparison Site
by Nicole Engard 20 Jul '14

20 Jul '14

Not sure if you all saw this: http://ils.foss4lib.org but it's comparing Koha 3.10 to Evergreen 2.4 - we should probably get it up to date since Koha is not 3 releases ahead and has many of the features it says it doesn't. Nicole

Re: [Koha] Items showing no location in the opac

Nope, there is already a ticket open for it in trac, it seems to only happen when single branch mode is enabled. I am now trying to get rid of it with CSS but can't seem to target it, oh well.

Regardng Koha search
by Dibyendra Hyoju 19 Jul '14

19 Jul '14

Hi all, I upgraded the Koha database recently from 3.6 to 3.14 and again into 3.16. Koha is showing errors (mentioned below) during the search, maybe because of the upgrade, I guess. Software error: Can't call method "as_string" on an undefined value at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Koha.pm line 1608. Some of the keywords I used during the search are: account, business and accounting but while other keywords don't have problem. Any idea how to resolve this problem? Thank you. -- Dibyendra Hyoju

French specifics for Koha
by clint.deckard 18 Jul '14

18 Jul '14

I have offered to do an introductory training session for Koha in Vanuatu at the end of this month and I would appreciate any hints and tips specific to using Koha in a french speaking country. I have added french language support without issue but have no experience with importing records in french. Also, is there a publicly available Z39.50 server that would be useful. I appreciate your help very much. Clint. -- Clint Deckard Anact Open Source Solutions RD1, Takapau, New Zealand

Merging branches in koha database
by Manoj 17 Jul '14

17 Jul '14

Dear Friends I am new to Koha. We are running koha in or organization. Somebody in our organization, setup koha and it is working since then. I am assigned a task in koha. I have seen tables in koha database little bit. In branches table, It has 8 branches records.. Out of these 8 records, Two Branches are going to merge. For Example. branchcode=AA branchcode=AB Now I have to make these two branches in to one branch with branchcode A but this branchcode has many relationships in other tables. What is the right way of doing it. What I understand is that, First I change the values in all tables where branch code is there like AA should be changed to A and AB should be changed to A Then finally I change either AA or AB in branch table., to A, and delete one row which I don't change. Then Will it work? In OPAC, there are some report/search, in that some statistics come So that report should also be change. I think this will change, it values in tables will be changes. Please suggest. Thanks for help. Manoj

Koha slowness and server hardware
by Steven Nickerson 17 Jul '14

17 Jul '14

Hello everyone, I'm looking for some thoughts/opinions. I have a working 3.14.04 "package install" environment running on a 4-core 3.6GHz system with 8GB RAM. The OS is Debian 32-bit running as a VM on top of VMware ESXi. This single VM is allocated pretty much all of the physical hardware resources in the system...just wanted the flexibility of adding a "test" VM environment later perhaps. We are noticing that most functions are quite slow, including check-ins, check-outs, and patron lookups. I've monitored the system for a bit and am seeing that mysqld is consuming 100% of all 4 CPUs consistently during the slowness. What I'm wondering is: - Does this seem normal to folks? Should a relatively small environment (less than 2000 patrons and just over 11,000 items) be consuming that much CPU? - Could it be VMware? - Could it be the 32-bit OS? The version of VMware I installed wouldn't allow me to create a 64-bit Debian VM. - Are there any MySQL tuning parameters I should consider? - Any other thoughts/ideas on what I should look at? Thanks all! Steve
