Elizabeth, I too have had an incessant problem getting Z3950 to work. To my understanding the line no longer had to be added to the script. If someone who understands better than I, how to get this to work, could post a step by step method on this list, it will help not only us, but other libraries thinking about using koha. I have been trying to install koha for a library here in the New York City area for the last three months and could never get the Z3950 function to work. To my knowledge it would be a first in this region and actually would enable us to bring other libraries on line if we can get it running. I have personally donated some materials for this project (not including my time) and once I get this going can get back to work on the russian and Turkish translation I was working on but had to forgo since I could never get the entire project running.

Hello,
I have just installed koha for testing. I have filled the database with data from another colleague, and everything works nicely except for Z39.50. I have got what I believe to be the last version of koha (koha-2.2.2RC2), and I cant get the Z39.50 thing to work.
I have added a line to the processz3950queue script as indicated in this list, now the deamon seems to be running but my z3950-daemon log is full of things like DBD::mysql::st execute failed: MySQL server has gone away at /usr/local/koha/intranet/scripts/z3950daemon/processz3950queue line 141. Does this occur when a search gets no result (possible) or is it more serious than that, doctor ? (I think so)
In any case, I get nothing sensible in the little popup window when I try searching w z39.50.
Anyone help me ? Thanks a lot Cheers,
