koha analytics mass import and "In:" ot showing
by schnydszch 22 Jan '14

22 Jan '14

Hi koha community! I'm trying out bulk import of analytics into koha 3.14. To trg it out first, I only import one record, with the following data i 773 field: $wSER-000001$tNewsweek$g121 (My 10 93). My host record has in 001 SER-000001. Doing this, i don't see the part "In: Newsweek". Which appears if I do it by manually linking it to host item. Which contradicts my need to bulk import analytic records. I tried adding in subfield 0 & 9 corresponding biblioitemnumber and itemnumber but still to no avail. Is there a special script that i need to run in order to get what I need? Thanks in advance and cheers! -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/koha-analytics-mass-import-and-In-ot-show… Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Duplicating Records = Replacing Records?
by Andrea Furin 22 Jan '14

22 Jan '14

Hi. When I try to duplicate a record, koha overwrites the old one: searching for that title (opac and biblio) returns only the last modified record - with duble koha id. Some solutions? One is to delete fields: 000@ 001@ 005@ 100a --

SECURITY release: MARC::File::XML 1.0.2
by Galen Charlton 22 Jan '14

22 Jan '14

Hi, I have uploaded [1] version 1.0.2 of MARC::File::XML, a Perl module which is used by Koha. This is a security release that repairs an XML external entity (XXE) vulnerability. I know of at least one way that the vulnerability could be used by an individual who has staff interface credentials to view the contents of arbitrary files on the Koha server. Consequently, I recommend that Koha users arrange to upgrade MARC::File::XML promptly. On many Linux systems, this can be done by running the following command with root privileges: cpan MARC::File::XML If the installation fails, the most likely reason is that your version of ExtUtils::MakeMaker is not recent enough. You can fix this by running the following command first, then attempting the installation of MARC::File::XML again. cpan ExtUtils::MakeMaker Please note that at the time of this writing, not all CPAN mirrors will have the most recent version of MARC::File::XML. You can check the version of MARC::File::XML that is installed by running: perl -MMARC::File::XML -e 'print $MARC::File::XML::VERSION, "\n"' I imagine that an updated Debian package of libmarc-xml-perl will be made available on debian.koha-community.org at some point as well. For any users of Koha on Fedora that are out there, Dan Scott will be packaging MARC::File::XML 1.0.2 shortly. Please note that older releases of MARC::File::XML prior to the switch to XML::LibXML are also vulnerable. Here is the relevant change log entry: 1.0.2 Tue Jan 21 17:18:37 UTC 2014 - MARC::File::XML will now die upon parsing a record that declares an external entity and tries to use it. This prevents the potential unwanted disclosure of the contents of files on the server by applications that embed this module. If, for some reason, an application needs to process MARCXML records that contain external entities, set_parser() can be used to force the use of an XML::LibXML parser that is configured to process external entities. The issue was reported by John Lightsey.

How to run Koha fines script manually
by Vimal Kumar V. 21 Jan '14

21 Jan '14

Dear Friends, Most of the libraries have installed Koha in ordinary computer and they shut down it after working hours. Fine will not calculate in this context. Fine calculation in Koha occur in 12 AM midnight. You can manage fine calculation by running fine calculation script. Here is the method, Open *Applications > Accessories > Terminal* Apply following commands, *sudo su* *cd /etc/cron.daily/* *./koha-common* Run this script at opening hour of the library.

How to enable patron login in OPAC
by otuoma 21 Jan '14

21 Jan '14

We have a big database of over 20 thousand+ patrons. Now, we want to activate patron accounts so they can log-in and manage their own accounts. When we created each patron's account, a password was generated. What is this password and how can we update it for all patrons so they can all log-in with one password and then change it later on their own? Or if there is another way around this, I will really appreciate any new ideas. Thanks all in advance. -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/How-to-enable-patron-login-in-OPAC-tp5784… Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Searching on 099
by Doug Dearden 21 Jan '14

21 Jan '14

Hello all, I received this query from our librarian "In the archive database we use the 099 field for call numbers but the opac search option for call number doesn't seem to search this field. Could we add it? I can't find it in administration or the manual". I dug around in the administration section and couldn't figure it out either. In this database we don't use item records, only biblio records. I am thinking that to make this happen I need to modify Zebra configuration file(s), but I am not sure. Koha version 3.12.03.000 installed on Debian Squeeze using packages. Zebra version 2.0.47. Thanks! Doug Dearden Director, IT School for Advanced Research (505)954-7220 sarweb.org

Z39.50 searching by Publisher
by Andrea Furin 20 Jan '14

20 Jan '14

Is it possible to make a searching in Z39.50 mask also by publisher? in file z3950_search.tt I've add a: <li><label for="biblioitems.publishercode">Publisher: </label> <input type="text" id="biblioitems.publishercode" name="biblioitems.publishercode" value="[% biblioitems.publishercode %]" /></li> so the z39.50 mask has a new field, but the results mask doesn't filter with it --

wrong sorting order of results beginning with accented letters (č, š, ř, ž,...)
by Bohdan Šmilauer 20 Jan '14

20 Jan '14

Hi to all! I'm trying to achieve the correct sorting in the search results in Koha 3.12 installed on Ubuntu 12.04. I followed the instructions on http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Encoding_and_Character_Sets_in_Koha (http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Encoding_and_Character_Sets_in_Koha) Despite this, the sorting of the results of authorities or titles is wrong. You can see it on http://koha.doxos.eu:8080/(http://koha.doxos.eu:8080/) The variable "locale" is set to cs_CZ.UTF-8 and a simple sample sorting program written in Perl works correctly. Does anyone know which programs in Koha control the collation order of resullts on Opac and how to fix it? Thank you very much for the advice.
