Using Koha 16.11.04 (via Debian package installation) on Debian 8 I encounter the following problem.
In Koha menu "Administration > Circulation and fine rules" a single rule for all patron categories and all item types was defined. The rule includes: * Renewals allowed (count): 3 * Renewal period: 19 * No renewal before: [empty] * Automatic renewal: No * No automatic renewal after: [empty]
However, when looking at the actual checkouts of any user, the column "Renew" always says "Not renewable (0 of 0 renewals remaining)" for every single item. Instead I would expect to see "Renewable (0 of 3 renewals remaining)".
Restarting Koha / Plack and clearing the webbrowser's cache doesn't change a thing, unfortunately.
How is this possible, why are all my items "not renewable"?
I found a couple of mailing list posts that had described this problem before but they didn't give a solution. * http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/no-item-type-and-Not-Renewable-td3061990.h... * http://koha.1045719.n5.nabble.com/Koha-Renewal-setup-td3061094.html My "solution" at the end was to remove ALL circulation rules (even if I had done this before to no avail...) and once again reenter the exact same values I already had inserted before. Now it works as expected. Best wishes: Michael -- Geschäftsführer · Diplombibliothekar BBS, Informatiker eidg.
