But i've some question.
1) 've to do in cgi-bin dirs (koha and opac):
ln -s . koha
to make all the system works. The URL looks like:
http://opac.sv.lnf.it/cgi-bin/koha/search.pl

It's not normal. Maybe a mistake in distribution ? Steve/Chris, any idea ?
2) http://koha.sv.lnf.it/cgi-bin/koha/admin/marctagstructure.pl
Not Found The requested URL /cgi-bin/koha/admin/marctagstructure.pl was not found on this server.
Apache/1.3.26 Server at koha.sv.lnf.it Port 80
...and really there's no marctagstructure.pl file anyware.
It's a bug : marctagstructure.pl has no interest in 1.2 version, as it plays with tables that are only in the 1.4 under dev. I thought the /admin/index.html didnt' show this link. You can forget it (and create a bug at bugs.koha.org too ...)
3) I'm not a librarian, so could be some missed background, but some aspect are for me not totally clear. Particulary the acquisition/budget/book funds schema. Again, i've inserted two test book (one, ``Computer Networks'' of Tanenbaum, linus sorry me ;) with only the minimal data. Now i wont to edit these, adding some keyword, but i came to ``biblio record'' editing (all field empty) and not to these fields.
We use 3 levels of informations : * biblio : it's the main information. It explains something has been written by someon. For example, it could be "Computer Networks" from Tanenbaum. * biblioitems : it explain how the biblio has been "produced". For example, it can be "Computer Network", edited by "EDITOR AAA", on a nice A4 book, colored, 200pages, and "Computer Network", edited by "POCKET-ED", on a pokect format, B&W, 100 pages. * items : it explains how many occurences of the biblioitems you possess : i've 2 EDITOR AAA, one buyed 10Euros in 2002, and one buyed 8Euros in 2001, and 1 POCKET-ED, buyed 4Euros in 2002. If this does not help, please explain exactly where you are in koha (script name for example)
4) Where i can get the sgml source of the manual, or at least the .pdf or postcript for pretty print?!
Good idea to provide it on www.koha.org. katipo and Chris do you agree ?
5) I need a quick translation at least of the OPAC module to make usable here (waiting for 1.4 to a real translation). Where i can start?! How i can translate to minimize headache for the next 1.2.X release?!
see my previous post.
6) Where i can modify the link for ``OPAC'' and ``Library website'' in homepage and top/bottom of the page?! I think my user have no interest to get a book in new zeland... ;-)))
why ? kiwi books are nice too. Just rarely in italian, but nice ;-)))) apart from the joke, do to your koha-root directory and type : grep "Library Website" */*/* koha-html/intranet-html/index.html: See Also: <A HREF="http://opac.library.org.nz">OPAC</a> || <A HREF="http://www.library.org.nz">Library Website</a> and grep "Library Website" */*/*/* koha-html/intranet-html/includes/acquisitions-bottom.inc:<A HREF="http://www.library.org.nz">Library Website</a> koha-html/intranet-html/includes/aquisitions-bottom.inc:<A HREF="http://www.library.org.nz">Library Website</a> koha-html/intranet-html/includes/cat-bottom.inc:<A HREF="http://www.library.org.nz">Library Website</a> koha-html/intranet-html/includes/circulation-bottom.inc:<A HREF="http://www.library.org.nz">Library Website</a> koha-html/intranet-html/includes/issues-bottom.inc:<A HREF="http://www.library.org.nz">Library Website</a> koha-html/intranet-html/includes/issues-top.inc:<option value=/cgi-bin/tododisplay.pl?user=Rachel&todo=43> -> Library Website koha-html/intranet-html/includes/members-bottom.inc:<A HREF="http://www.library.org.nz">Library Website</a> koha-html/intranet-html/includes/reports-bottom.inc:<A HREF="http://www.library.org.nz">Library Website</a>

My mistake. I've setup a wrong ScriptAlias line in apache
configuration. Probably i got an error from 1.2.0 instal script, because
i've created an include apache configuration file with koha setup.
Solved. ;)

Something is not clear... i'll try to explain.
I've acquisition=simple, i've tring to set to =normal and i've to say
something after on this.
I've to insert a book. I go to:
http://koha.sv.lnf.it/cgi-bin/koha/acqui.simple/addbooks.pl
and type ISBN:
88-324-3689-2
Then i fill the form, like:
Title Capire la contabilità e il bilancio
Subtitle Dalle scritture contabili in euro al bilancio
d'esercizio: aspetti civilistici, contabili, fiscali
Author P. Ceppellini - R. Lugano - C. Negri
Series Title (if applicable)
Contabilità e Bilancio
Copyright Date
1999
submit data, and a new form, i've insert data about publisher and
leave most of the field empty.
Then i submit data, and form return to the start (Section One:
Copyright Information). Seems that section 3 missed, but i don't know
if it is a feature becasue i've leaved too much field of the section
two form empty).
Book are inserted, i can lookup in opac but, for example, i've not
inserted keyword anywhere.
> If this does not help, please explain exactly where you are in koha
> (script name for example)
Now i want to edit this book, eg because i've forgot an author or i've
to insert keywords.
Go to:
http://koha.sv.lnf.it/cgi-bin/koha/search.pl
search for ``capire'' and found the book. Click into the title lead me
to the page:
http://koha.sv.lnf.it/cgi-bin/koha/detail.pl?type=intra&bib=3&title=Capire%20la%20contabilit%E0%20e%20il%20bilancio
where the upper leftmost window with ``biblio record 3'' say nothing
(all filed empty apart additional authors), and if i click modify, all
field (also additional authors) are empty, and i can insert all data i
want, they are not recorded (seems that).
As a note, if i follow in same page the link acquisition (right box
with instructions), i'll go to normal acquisition schema, not simple.
I think i've found some bugs, but also i think i miss some basic
information about library and how they works... ;)))

Translation by gettext works only for opac, not koha, right?!

Thanks, i think that this can easily be automated by install script.

This is a bug. Is there an error reported in your error logs after submitting the Section Two form? In another message you asked about debugging. If you add a line like: warn $query; it will print the $query variable in your error logs and not in the HTML output. Steve Tonnesen
Thanks for the detailed list, Marco. I've answered the questions that I have information for below. On Mon, 8 Jul 2002, Marco Gaiarin wrote:

In my httpd.conf file VirtualHost sections for Koha I have: ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/koha/ "/usr/local/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/" Note the 'koha' after cgi-bin in the first parameter. Did you use the installer.pl script to install, or did you follow the INSTALL instructions and install manually? The INSTALL instructions also specify using /cgi-bin/koha/ so maybe this was just missed?
3) I'm not a librarian, so could be some missed background, but some aspect are for me not totally clear. Particulary the acquisition/budget/book funds schema.

You are talking about the full acquisitions system. There is also a simple acquisitions system which might be easier for you to use. The full acquisitions system was designed for Horowhenua Library Trust and needs some work to make it more generic. To use the "simple" acquisitions, go to the Parameters page, select "systempreferences" and edit or add the "acquisitions" variable, setting it to "simple". The installer.pl script uses simple acquisitions by default, so I'm guessing that you installed manually. We probably need to make some changes to the INSTALL document to fix these two problems.
6) Where i can modify the link for ``OPAC'' and ``Library website'' in homepage and top/bottom of the page?! I think my user have no interest to get a book in new zeland... ;-)))
I've opened a bug for this problem. Will get it fixed today in CVS. Steve.

I'm only guessing but here are some observations: [system preferences = simple] After doing an title search you should see at least author and title under biblio record/modify or something is really wrong. Now you can add subject heading(s ?) or keyword(s ?) to subject -field and then press "Submit Query" (!!!!!). Record is updated directly or trough subject authority screen. Dewey number can be added under barcode-link & group/ modify ("Class"). [Dewey search option is missing from OPAC.] Adding LCCN ? Acquisitions-link takes you to Acquisitions (System preferences = normal) (?). It is not usable if system preferences = simple (?). Waiting for updated manual... Ville Huhtala

Yes, thanks.

The modib.pl script must be getting called with a blank bibnum parameter, as this is the only variable used in the query on line 877 of Search.pm. The URL probably looks something like "modbib.pl?bibnum=" instead of "modbib.pl?bibnum=3". This is most likely related to the problem you had filling out Section Two of the simple acquisitions process. Question: When you get to Section Two, is the itemtypes drop down box populated? Does it have any entries in it that you can select? Steve.

Hem, yes itemtypes are not empty, but i've found that fore some reason the db was not updated. Really i've installed 1.2.1 from scatch, so i suppose that in tarball of 1.2.1 the schema was 1.2.0.
