I can't figure out what the portnumber of our z39.50 server is?
I can't even figure out if z39.50 is running? How do you do such things?
We have a database called ‘kohadb’, entered some 18000 records, zebra is running and indexing and now I would like to know if this database can be reached by z39.50?
The default port for Z39.50 is 9999, but you can choose a different port during the Makefile.PL-part of the installation. You have to actively turn on the Z39.50 server, take a look at the last couple of questions and answers here: https://sites.google.com/a/liblime.com/koha-manual/Home/Table-of-Contents/Ap... However, this did not work for me, and I had to do what I have tried to describe here: http://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/2009-April/017832.html to get the server up and running. To test the Z39.50 server you can log on to the machine it is running on with e.g. SSH and run the yaz-client: http://www.indexdata.dk/yaz/doc/yaz-client.tkl Just running the command "yaz-client" should give you a prompt that looks like this: Z> Try connecting to the Z39.50 server on the local machine with this command: Z>open localhost:9999/biblios The output will look something like this: Connecting...OK. Sent initrequest. Connection accepted by v3 target.
