I am taking a HDD to Christchurch (NZ) with Koha pre-installed this weekend (Debian Sarge) to plug into a machine up there, Intel Pentium III, 600 mhz, 128 ram. It will be serving a library of ~3000 volumes. The installation went well after I discovered that I needed to use port 8000 for OPAC.
You dont strictly need to :) If you have a domain at your disposal you could set up opac.my.domain etc intra.my.domain instead.
There are some glitches I would like to iron out before I leave.
1. Deleting a book entry. The "Modify" and "Delete" buttons do not work. Is this a "feature" or have I done something wrong?
Hmm, this certainly should work, are you getting any errors in the apache error logs?
2. Net::Z3950. I got totally lost at http://www.indexdata.dk/yaz/, how do I get the module?
http://ftp.indexdata.dk/pub/yaz/debian/ You can get the debian yaz modules from there. And then you can use CPAN to install the Net::Z3950 module.
3. The present records are kept in a MS database and it would be helpful if these could be transfered to the Koha mysql database. Anyone got any suggestions? My thinking at the moment is to transfer each group (e.g Authors) singly, but I do not know how to go about this. I have never used a sql DB before so I am on a sharp learning curve.
If you can get the data out as a tab separated text file, or comma separated or something like that, Im sure we could write a perl program to massage the data into Koha's database Chris -- Chris Cormack Programmer 025 500 789 Katipo Communications Ltd chris@katipo.co.nz www.katipo.co.nz
