Good afternoon! Our library has been running Koha 2.2.5 and I am in the process of upgrading to 3.00.04. The whole process has gone smoothly up to this point. I have attempted to thoroughly detail the problem below. If you need more information, please let me know. In advance, thanks for any input. Got to the point in Koha 3.0 where I was ready to import records. Thus exported MARC records from our old version of Koha 2.2.5 using the staff client. Prior to the export, I ran a quick query on the 2.2.5 database to capture the ending biblionumber and using 1 to that ending number dropped these values into the from/to biblio number fields in the MARC exporter (i.e 1-69,784). This generated a 52.3 MB file. Following the staging steps in the online Koha 3.0 reference manual I was able to import these records into my installation of Koa 3.00.04. Once this had completed I ran the reindex of Zebra which ran through the records. Zebra is working nicely and I can search the catalog and find records. However I'm missing most of the item information for just about all of the records. Accordingly, I checked the 3.0 db and bibiliotems table has been populated successfully but the items table only has 25 items listed in it. In the interest of scientific reasoning, I selected a book that is not included in the list of 25 items. In the holdings section of the staff client the message is given that there are "No physical record available for this item. Which makes sense because this item is not listed in the items table of the db. However when I go through the process of adding the item, using the old catalog as a reference for the barcode info, number of copies, etc. and save/add the item info, the record is then populated with two items. I've taken/attached a screenshot to avoid an arduous explanation. I have two basic questions: 1) what would be the best way to specifically export the items information from the old db into the new one? I would prefer to do this enmass as to avoid doing this item by item. Secondly I am wondering why I'm getting two iterations to the items I'm adding. This is probably less important but I am interested to why this is happening. Additional info: Koha version: 3.00.04 MySql Database Linux 8.04 (Hardy Heron) Pentium 4 3.00 GHz CPU I have done a bit of googling and looking at a bunch of Koha writing about this but wasn't finding the answer based upon how I was wording my search queries. If this was specifically addressed on the koha list and I've missed it, I do apologize and beg the list's kindness. Thank you, Jeremy McGinniss Librarian Alice E. Chatlos Library Davis College
