Hey guys, Quick question. We have all the Amazon info turned on (AWS Key and ID tag in place, etc.). We are pulling jackets, but no content. The Amazon reviews tab isn't even showing up in the OPAC. My first thought is that we might be configured to download content to the server and distribute as requested (see Ferraro's comments here<http://osdir.com/ml/culture.libraries.ngc4lib/2006-12/msg00145.html>), but I don't know how to check that or how to change it to downloading info per request. Or maybe that isn't the problem at all! List of options on: AmazonAssocTag, AmazonContent, AmazonSimiliarItems, AWSAccessKeyID, OPACAmazonContent, and OPACAmazonSimilarItems. FYI, we're running Koha 3.00.02.012 with Zebra 2.0.41. Thoughts?

Not an answer to your problem, but I want to point out that there is no option to download content to the Koha server and distribute it from there. All third-party content (Amazon, Google, whatever) is pulled directly from the content supplier's servers. -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org

The current stable version of Koha (3.0.3, which you seem to be running), does not support the latest changes to the Amazon API. Amazon recently changed the API to require a secret signing key. 3.0.4, which will support these changes, will be coming out within the next few months. -- Jesse Weaver
We have 3.00.01.005 and therefore no longer have Amazon summaries in the OPAC. Is it easy enough to move to 3.2 at this point, in order to regain this functionality? Maybe due to instability of 3.2, we should just wait for 3.0 update... 3.2 apparently utilizes ASWPrivateKeyID: http://koha.org/documentation/faq/why-do-i-need-a-awsprivatekey-for-amazon-c...

The bug implementing that is http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3204 The corresponding patches are linked (as commit then diff) from http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha&a=search&h=HEAD&st=commit&s=bug%203204 which you could ask your LMS maintainer to apply if you want to try getting that functionality before 3.0.4 in a week or two. Hope that helps, -- MJ Ray (slef) LMS developer and webmaster at | software www.software.coop http://mjr.towers.org.uk | .... co IMO only: see http://mjr.towers.org.uk/email.html | .... op
