I have given yes - Install the Zebra configuration files? in the koha installation. IF i haven't started the zebra server, can i able to give the marc format of a book.

but when i tried to start the server , i m unable to do it If you install idzebra from source by default it installs the binaries as zebrasrv-2.0 and zebraidx-2.0. To get the koha scripts to work create links from the shorter names to these e.g. (assuming the binaries are in /usr/bin) as root cd /usr/bin ln zebrasrv-2.0 zebrasrv ln zebraidx-2.0 zebraidx
The scripts should then reference the installed versions Cheers Colin -- Colin Campbell Software Engineer, PTFS Europe Limited Content Management and Library Solutions +44 (0) 208 366 1295 (phone) +44 (0) 7759 633626 (mobile) colin.campbell@ptfs-europe.com skype: colin_campbell2 http://www.ptfs-europe.com
Hello, Sidestepping your query about Zebra: for a few books (that's in thousands), i don't think you need zebra, and you need not bother with it at the moment. Many of the queries that you pose have excellent guides at:http://koha.org/documentation BTW, adding a Marc record is not "easy" if you have no background in cataloguing. My workaround has been to create a custom MARC framework that only needs me to input a handful of the most obvious information about a book to create a record. This framework is for the use of the layman, not the librarian. (i was hoping to contribute it to the codebase for future inclusion, but haven't got around to doing so yet) My expectation and understanding is that people post to this list when they encounter something that is unusual/not documented/doesn't work as expected, etc. Regards,krishnan --- On Thu, 16/7/09, Sivasankari Muthuraja <sivasankari.muthuraja@gmail.com> wrote: From: Sivasankari Muthuraja <sivasankari.muthuraja@gmail.com> Subject: [Koha] koha doubts To: koha@lists.katipo.co.nz Date: Thursday, 16 July, 2009, 5:02 AM hi, Need help in installing zebra server for fedora10 linux machine.
