Item search without searching for bib record id
by magmatic 05 Feb '14

05 Feb '14

When we search for items, we often search for the bar code, but then some books show up that get matched on the biblio record, which is confusing. Is there a setting somewhere that we can set so that searches don't match on bib record number? Thanks -- Tim -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Item-search-without-searching-for-bib-rec… Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

I have a requirement of hosting a Free Library management system for a Non Profit organization with a noble cause. We were able to manage and get a free VPS hosting space for ourselves with the following configuration: OS: CentOS 5.x 32bit Bandwidth limit: 500 GB Memory: 512 MB Disk: 20 GB Absolutely No Support offered by web hosting company as this is a Free VPS account, so I am all on my own with the help of the Koha forums and mailing lists. I am using a Mac for all the operations and unfortunately the web console provided by webhosters do not work with it as a Java applet has not been signed against the Apple authority. So, I am using SSH to remotely login via terminal. Questions: 1. Is it possible to install Koha 3.12 or 3.14 on CentOS 5.x? 2. I referred this post but not being able to get it to work. What are the packages which I should get before I start installing Koha into it. 3. apt-get does not work for me. I have wget installed but no dpkg as explained in this post. 4. I am totally new to VPS thing, where exactly should I copy all the files etc.? Thank you for any help / suggestion which you might offer. Eagerly anticipating replies and help. -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Installing-Koha-3-12-on-CentOS-5-x-32bit-… Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
