Ata, That is awesome - I have downloaded it - but can't seem to import those either - so it's certainly a problem on my system. Nicole On Tue, Dec 8, 2009 at 8:24 AM, Ata ur Rehman <ata.rehman@gmail.com> wrote:

Anyone have any tips for finding a collection of authorities I can try to import? Can anyone else import records from LOC?
Thanks Nicole

You all rock and helped me with the content to write an awesome tutorial for others!!
Now - for some reason I keep getting that 0 records are importing. I'm going to the LOC site (authorities.loc.gov) and exporting a record from there - I tried in both MARC formats listed - so now I'm up for suggestions on how to get an authority record or two to import :)

Also - as someone who's new to this - where is my @INC file?

You mean the C4 in Koha?
home/nengard/kohaclone/C4 -- or is there another C4?

@INC is simply Perl's list of directories that it is looking for Perl modules in.
You need to run the following, or put in your ~/.bashrc:
export PERL5LIB=/home/nengard/kohaclone/
Basically, Koha imports modules from the C4 module. It needs to be told what directory to look for the C4 directory in, however. In a dev install, this is your Git clone; on a standard install, it would be something like /usr/share/koha/lib/.
On my machine, for instance, since my Koha git clone is at /home/jesse/projects/koha, and the C4 directory with Koha's Perl modules is thus at /home/jesse/projects/koha/C4, I do this:
export PERL5LIB=/home/jesse/projects/koha
