Yes, there are problems. Found [so far] C4\biblio.pm breaks at line 1975: MARCFIELD: foreach my $field ( $record->fields() ) { when used by additem.pl with error: Software error: Can't call method "fields" on an undefined value at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Biblio.pm line 1975. I'll have to work out which value firefox is apparently not sending - might be some simple js glitch, might be a show stopper. I had planned to roll-out Firefox4 this weekend across the win machines on our LAN, but am now [at least temporarily] stymied. Plz note I have not yet tested it on Linux, but have now moved that up my priority list. Also note that we have [extensively] tested Koha 3.02.05.000 on Linux server2 2.6.35-28-generic-pae with the latest stable versions of Chrome, Opera, Safari and Firefox 3.6.16 without finding any problems. We have done minimal testing with IE (OPAC only, for visiting laptop users of our WiFi.) Best regards Paul Tired old sys-admin

If you file a bug report for it there's a much better chance of getting help with it. -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org

Turns out that this particular error is very limited (probably not worth a bug report, as it could be justified from a browser security pov and it is not a Koha error.) It happens when you use the "remember and reload multiple tags" functionality of Firefox on shutdown: - Firefox 3.6 remembers not only the GUI presentation, but also the string values - Firefox 4.0 remembers the GUI, but discards string values There is nothing that I can find that is "broken" in Koha. Testing continues... Paul Tired old sys-admin

In this kind of situation, koha still needs to understand what's going on and not throw software errors. At the very least, it can redirect to a more useful page. Hence a bug report may still be useful. -- Robin Sheat Catalyst IT Ltd. ✆ +64 4 803 2204
I think (because of the error message) that it is probably related to a bug i opened and been working on, bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=5791 regards, To+ On 4/9/11, Robin Sheat <robin@catalyst.net.nz> wrote:
