Koha 18.11 - LC Authorities dataset upload - Free-floating subdivisions
Hi everyone, Koha 18.11 on Ubuntu 16.04 (MariaDb) I recently discovered that the Library of Congress has released their 2014 authorities as a free, open-access dataset in Marc8, xml, and Utf8 formats. This is great! ( https://www.loc.gov/cds/products/MDSConnect-subject_authorities.html) I am in the process of batch uploading the subject authority file into my instance of Koha. I'm about half complete (or about 220,000 entries). I noticed, however, that the file includes free-floating subdivisions, which are part of the dataset as their own record as if they were main headings. These have been uploaded as such into my system. I get an "Internal Server Error" page if I attempt to click on the Details button of any of these sub-divisions in the OPAC authority browse page. Not a huge deal, but something that should be mentioned. E.g., http://library.craigbutosi.ca/cgi-bin/koha/opac-authoritiesdetail.pl?authid=... ) I was wondering if this should be treated as a bug, and if anyone has done something similar and is (or is not) getting the same error. I reindexed zebra after uploading, but the error persists. Thanks all, Craig Butosi, MA, MLIS, B Mus (Hons) Library: library.craigbutosi.ca
Hi Craig, what's the error in your plack error log that appears with the Internal server error? Could you give an example of how these free-floating subdivisions look like in MARC? What is the field for the main heading? It could be a bug or requiring an enhancement - a bit hard to tell without knowing more. Having an internal server error is never nice, so filing a bug might make sense anyway. Katrin On 09.05.19 14:52, Craig Butosi wrote:

Hi Katrin, Thanks for your reply. Interestingly, when you navigate to a subdivision authority record from the staff client, you can get to the MARC data just fine. For example, Subdivision: *Effect of logging on:* Tab 0: https://www.dropbox.com/s/fdlwh5o3ja7uzff/Subdiv1.PNG?dl=0 Tab 1: https://www.dropbox.com/s/13xc61qaypfo4fz/Subdiv2.PNG?dl=0 Tab 6: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ft0lhw8pd0en08z/Subdiv3.PNG?dl=0 Plack Error: I have a smattering of the following error in the plack log file: "Can't call method "authtypetext" on an undefined value at /usr/share/koha/opac/cgi-bin/opac/opac-authoritiesdetail.pl line 89." which seems to coincide with attempting to click the "Details" button on the authorities list from the OPAC. I wonder if this error occurs because there is no defined authority type for free-floating subdivisions?

Hi everyone, After some playing around, I discovered that the authority records were given a Koha-specific value of "GEN_SUBDIV" in field 942 (this tag is hidden by default so it will not appear in the editor screen before you make it display). I therefore created a new authority type in Administration with the code "GEN_SUBDIV" and linked it to authority field 180 and bingo, the Internal Server Error disappears: http://library.craigbutosi.ca/cgi-bin/koha/opac-authoritiesdetail.pl?authid=... I have yet to see if this fix applies to all of the subdivisions in my file. When I have some quiet time, I'll review.
