Installation questions from another Linux/Koha newbie
In preparation for our move to Koha, I've got a brand new installation of RedHat 7.3 on my desktop. I installed 1.3.0 using the install-script, and got Apache set up fine. Something's not working right, though--several of the pages come up 'Internal Server Error' (book and member searches, for instance). What's the best way to diagnose problems like this? Did I skip some configuration somewhere along the way? Or am I asking for trouble trying to get 1.3.0 to work? -- Owen ---- Web Site Developer Athens County Library Services http://www.athenscounty.lib.oh.us

Hi Owen, The best way to look into problems like this is to start out in the error_log for apache to see what apache thinks is wrong. It sounds like you may have missed a step along the way, but that's hard to tell. You may want to avoid the 1.3.0 series for a bit longer yet (wait for 1.3.2 I'd guess -- Paul?). It's really geared at developers at this point. The good news is that the user visible (and installer bits) are going to be substantially the same as the 1.2.X versions, so the experience you gain in setting up and demoing things will carry over. Also, I've CC:d the koha-devel list on this. When troubleshooting problems, it often a good idea to try involving them. Another good approach is to jump onto the #koha channel at irc.katipo.co.nz and see if anyone is there who can help. thanks, -pate
