Koha problems - Allan Bean Centre Library
Hi, we have recently upgraded our server (which hosts Koha) and some of the features in the catalogue module are not displaying properly. The Linux version is: Ubuntu Server 8.04, given the issues with the catalogue, I was wondering if these are fixable or do we need to upgrade to the latest version of Koha? Currently, we are using Koha version 2.0.2 Kind regards, Bernadette Bernadette Cassidy PhD Manager, Library & Information Services New Zealand Spinal Trust Allan Bean Centre , Private Bag 4708 Christchurch, Tel: +64 (3) 383 9492 Fax: + 64 (3) 383 7500 Email: bernadettec@burwood.org.nz Website: www.nzspinaltrust.org.nz www.spinalessentials.org.nz <<Picture (Device Independent Bitmap)>> Empowering New Zealanders with spinal cord impairment to live independent, productive and confident lives - right now!
Currently, we are using Koha version 2.0.2
This is a VERY old version, so an upgrade is highly recommended.

It's possible that you might find something in Koha's error logs that would help diagnose the problem, but generally speaking I think the answer is upgrade! -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org

Upgrade is the answer ... but unfortunately it's not going to be easy going from 2.0.2 to 3.0.x (or 3.2.x) You would probably need to upgrade first to a 2.2.x release, then follow the 2.2 -> 3.0 upgrade instructions. It might be easier to get the data out, do a fresh install, and get the data back in than actually upgrading. Chris

you've possibly hit some mysql4 -> mysql5 bugs in koha-2.0.x (ive worked on other koha upgrades that have experienced the same problem) some of the SQL code in koha-2.2 got rewritten for mysql5 compatibility, *after* your koha version :/ check your logs for SQL errors
The Linux version is: Ubuntu Server 8.04, given the issues with the catalogue, I was wondering if these are fixable or do we need to upgrade to the latest version of Koha?
from memory... the mysql5 fixes are few and well-known, and will probably fix your system. i can't spot the exact series of mysql5-fix commits now. but they are in git towards the end of release 2.2 http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=summary cheers, Mason.
