Question re. config file for OCLC Connexion Gateway
Hi all, We need to update a port number in our OCLC Connexion Gateway settings before ByWater Solutions, our service provider, can upgrade us to Koha 3.22. The same is true for all ByWater clients using the Gateway, and so I am hoping someone can answer this question. There are two steps to setting up the Connexion Gateway: 1) inputting some settings in the Connexion Client, and 2) writing a config file that tells Koha how to handle the incoming records. I have already changed the Connexion Client settings. My question is regarding the config file, about which the Koha manual says, "First, you'll need to create a file somewhere on your system with configuration information. You could put this anywhere that is visible to the account that will be running the service." I understand what goes into the config file, and that the port number on line 2 of the file has to be changed. I just don't know where this file lives in order to grab it and edit it. Our Koha server is hosted. No one at my institution remember how this was set up when we went live (before my time). Any help is much appreciated!

Hi, Gabriela-- We are ByWater clients and have successfully done our reconfiguring, and I use the Gateway with Koha (currently 3.18, but we're ready to upgrade to 3.22 anytime) with the OCLC Connexion Client software. We simply changed the Hostname and Port in the OCLC options' Gateway Export options. I didn't have to do anything else--ByWater also hosts our catalog. Let me know if you'd like any screenshots or detailed instructions, and please feel free to tell ByWater to take a look at our catalog if it would be helpful, since our Gateway export is working beautifully with our new settings. Hope this is helpful! Cheerio, h2 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Heather Hernandez Technical Services Librarian San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park Research Center 2 Marina Blvd., Bldg.
