Hi all,
Been using koha for the last 5 months. Since yesterday when I try to a mysqldump, I keep on geting the error "mysqldump: Error 2013: Lost connection to MySQL during query when dumping table 'biblioitems' at row: 1052"
So now I cant backup my database.
That sounds like a corruption in MySQL. Have you tried googling for the error code/description?
I have also installed koha 3.4 on a new system with the intention of moving everything over, but cannot find any documentation that can help me with my situation.
You'll find the short version here: http://galencharlton.com/blog/2011/04/reading-upgrade-instructions-is-fundam... And the long version is in the INSTALL.* files that are part of the Koha code: http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=tree;hb=HEAD Here is the relevant part of INSTALL.debian, for example: UPGRADE ======= If you are upgrading from a previous installation of Koha 3.x, you can use the following: ./koha_perl_deps.pl -u -m # to identify new Perl dependencies Install any missing modules IMPORTANT: Koha 3.4.x uses Template::Toolkit, this must be installed before the webinstaller can run sudo apt-get install libtemplate-perl perl Makefile.PL --prev-install-log /path/to/koha-install-log make make test sudo make upgrade Koha 3.4.x no longer stores items in biblio records so as part of the upgrade you will need to do the following two steps, they can take a long time (several hours) to complete for large databases misc/maintenance/remove_items_from_biblioitems.pl --run misc/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -r Best regards, Magnus Enger libriotech.no
