Re: [Koha] Patron Club feature
Hi all, The other open bugs in patron clubs feature all relate to using MySQL. Looks like the clubs feature will get installed properly only if MariaDB is used.Mark Alexander and Michael Kuhn, are you using MySQL ? Have you tried the clubs feature using Maria DB ? Koha development team, could you please give a recommendation ? On Fri, Aug 4, 2017 at 1:03 PM Krishna K <krishna.moorthy94@gmail.com> wrote:
Thanks Michael.
Hi all,
Should I report this as a bug w.r.t the clubs feature ?

Hi
We recently upgraded to 17.05.01 from 16.11.05. When we try to use the clubs feature by clicking on Tools-> Patron Clubs link, we are getting 404 error.
It sounds like there was a problem during the upgrade process, though I don't know what it might have been. One solution would be to take a full backup of your Koha database and reinstall 17.05.x from scratch.
Unfortunately it doesn't look like there is any documentation for the patron clubs feature yet. :(
Features without documentation are almost like non-existing... :(
However, out of curiosity I tried to use the clubs feature in my own demo installation as well as in an installation that I recently updated from Koha 3.20 to 17.05.
Both of them will show no clubs feature but just a white screen saying "Not found" when click the "clubs" link which looks something like this
http://yourhost:yourport/cgi-bin/koha/clubs/clubs.pl
The file system of both hosts don't show no file called "clubs.pl" anywhere.
The output of the update process said only "Upgrade to 16.12.00.027 done (Bug 12461 - Add patron clubs feature)" which doesn't indicate any error.
So maybe the error is somewhere in the upgrade routine.

Yes, we are using MySQL 5.5.55. No, we didn't try MariaDB. On the Koha Community page https://koha-community.org/download-koha/ MySQL is given as the recommended database management system. MariaDB does not seem to be an officially supported DBMS or someone forgot to add it there. Concerning this matter I still support what I already have said in Bug 18962 (Including valid system requirements in Koha manual) * https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=18962 Best wishes: Michael -- Geschäftsführer · Diplombibliothekar BBS, Informatiker eidg.

Hi Michael, The below link has a reference to using MariaDB. It says - Koha does not work well with MySQL 5.7 which is shipped with Ubuntu 16.04. use MariaDB instead. https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_Debian#MySQL.7CMariaDB I agree with your view in Bug 18962. Now I have the following queries. Looking forward to help from the Koha community on these Why Patron Clubs feature didnt get installed when we upgraded to 17.05 ? Is it because we are having MySql 5.7 ? Why the upgrade didnt give any error ? What we should do now to install this feature ? And should we be moving to MariaDB ? How do we do it ?

No.
Why the upgrade didnt give any error ?
Because there wasn't any DB-related problem.
What we should do now to install this feature ?
If you can, please test the patch I submitted here: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=19067 which fixes the problem with the Patron Clubs feature not being correctly installed.

Hi Krishna, I think this bug is the reason why the patron clubs didn't install properly: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=19067 It's on his way into the next stable releases. For DBMS, see here: https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_Debian#Debian_Packages_on_Koha 'Koha does not work well with MySQL 5.7 which is shipped with Ubuntu 16.04. use MariaDB instead' Hope this helps, Katrin On 09.08.2017 17:41, Krishna K wrote:
