koha, import batches and cleaning records
by schnydszch 19 Sep '13

Hello Koha users and developers! I'm using Koha 3.12.4, the database of which were imported from previous koha versions, from 3.2 (?) to 3.6 to 3.8 to 3.12. Now my situation: I have imported a lot of marc records, this is stored in the mysql database. looking at the tables, table import_records occupies big amount, now it occupies 417.5 MB. Now, my question is, can i delete any records here? Are the records not imported reflected here? (e.g. Staged, Cleaned, etc.) And if I delete records here, are there any repercussions in my koha? Thanks in advance and have a nice day! -- View this message in context: http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/koha-import-batches-and-cleaning-records-… Sent from the Koha-general mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Reset database, rebuild zebra problem.
by clint.deckard 18 Sep '13

Greetings, 3.12 Debian packages. I wished to remove bibs and items for a Koha instance, I truncated the biblio and biblioitems tables but searching still showed records (but no items). Running koha-rebuild-zebra -f -v instance did not change anything. After *much* searching I tried ./rebuild_zebra.pl (with and without sudo). Complained about not finding C4. I think this was wrong and I have broken permissions. I have just read Robin's email about a similar issue in July but not sure how to recover from this one. One way forward might be to remove the instance and recreate with backup. Would this work? Sorry for the trouble and I appreciate the assistance. Clint. -- Clint Deckard RD1 Takapau Central Hawkes Bay, New Zealand.

Additional language error
by Araik Manukyan 18 Sep '13

18 Sep '13

Dear Friends, Recently I have installed Koha 3.12.01 Tarball on Ubuntu 12.04 After adding additional languages such as Armenian hy-Armn. I added Armenian according to this documentation http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Installation_of_additional_languages_for _OPAC_and_INTRANET_staff_client Can you help us to change our cataloguing module into Armenian language because KOHA have already translated in Armenian and some of our librarians want to work using Armenian interface (Marc 21 in Armenian) we can see OPAC in Armenian and also administration page, but we can't see Armenian in cataloging module , especially fields . Please look at attached file bellow How can we solve this problem? Please answer because it is very important for us Best regards Araik.

Foolproof backup suggestions
by clint.deckard 18 Sep '13

18 Sep '13

I am donating a server with Koha 3.12 on Debian 7 via packages for a school in Vanuatu and would like suggestions for a simple backup strategy. The 'server' will not actually be network connected, so it will be used as a standalone workstation (at least to begin with). There will be no technical support available. My first thought was to use koha-run-backups and change the location to the desktop of the user that will access Koha. With the thought they could drag and drop the backup folder to a usb drive when needed. But it appears the --location: argument does not work with koha-run-backups. Since I am a novice scripter I am reluctant to go this path for fear of making a mess that I can't fix from thousands of KMs away. I doubt the machine will run 24/7. Any suggestions would be gratefully received. A little of the backstory: http://www.edgazette.govt.nz/Articles/Article.aspx?ArticleId=8749 many thanks, Clint.

2013-09-23 Global bug squashing day - come join the fun!
by Magnus Enger 17 Sep '13

Dear Community! Some of the dates in Galen's RM proposal* are drawing dangerously near: 25 September 2013: feature slush** 3 October 2013: feature freeze 31 October 2013: string freeze 21 November 2013: release of 3.14.0 That's right, feature slush is just a few days away. And we have something of a queue of things that would be cool to have in 3.14: http://dashboard.koha-community.org/ So let's join forces and knock those numbers way down, on Monday 23rd: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/2013-09-23_Global_bug_squashing_day That page should give you some clues about things you can do, but if you are unsure about how you can contribute, don't hesitate to jump on the IRC and ask for help: http://koha-community.org/get-involved/irc/ And rumour has it there will be a QA Sprint immediately the GBSD, but Katrin will have to fil in the details of that. Have fun! Magnus * See http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Proposal_for_RM_3_14_gmcharlt ** Excerpt from the last general IRC meeting: <cait> gmcharlt: can you define feature slush a little? want to prevent any misunderstandings if possible :) <gmcharlt> cait: feature slush -- any new features that have hit passed QA by that date will be included in 3.14, assuming they don't raise signfiicant QA concerns on my part <gmcharlt> new features that have /not/ hit passed QA by feature slush are more liable to be left for the next release; if you want something that misses slush to make it in, you'll need to advocate for it <thd> Why does slush have the name slush? <gmcharlt> a partial freeze, of course

Dear clint.deckard, I am Rachel Laau Kara. I am from Vanuatu. Also a Librarian working in Simeliu Library at the Vanuatu Institute of Teachers' Education.

So happy to hear you donating a Server to one of the school. Shall I ask which school is it? .. I could help you in a way or so Kind regards Rachel Laau Kara
