Hi, We have just installed Koha on a PC in my school's library. Now we're ready to start using it, but before we start inputting the collection, we need to delete the sample data from the database. I couldn't find anything on the koha site describing how to do this, so I'm asking here. How do we empty the database? -- Jim Thomas Principal Applications Engineer Bittware, Inc jthomas@bittware.com http://www.bittware.com (703) 779-7770 People think it must be fun to be a super genius, but they don't realize how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world - Calvin

Use these instructions with great care! This assumes that you are running version 1.2 of Koha... Connect to your koha database mysql Koha -pROOTPASSWORD or use the "user" and "password" settings from /etc/koha.conf with: mysql Koha -uUSER -pPASSWORD then run: delete from items; delete from biblioitems; delete from bibliosubject; delete from bibliosubtitle; delete from additionalauthors; delete from biblio; delete from issues; Steve Tonnesen.
