Problem with patrons import
Dear all I know it will be a silly question, it always is...I am trying to import new members and somehow it doesn't work.The import patrons tool tells me: ############## Feedback: Parsing upload file koha-new-members-march-2013-shorter.csv Content-Type : text/csv Content-Disposition : form-data; name="uploadborrowers"; filename="koha-new-members-march-2013-shorter.csv" headerrow : Error analysis: Header row could not be parsed############## My patrons file is a .csv fileMy header row is: (sorry the format will probably go crazy) ############## borrowernumber cardnumber surname firstname title address address2 city state zipcode email phone fax branchcode categorycode gonenoaddress ############## All lowercase and copy-paste from the starter .csv file. What am I doing wrong? Or should I look somewhere else in the csv file? There is no date and nothing funny... Thanks for your help! Sonia.
Hi Sonia, the header row should be one line only and the fields separated with commas. From the patron import tool page you can download an example. The link is in the help text on the right. So something like: borrowernumber, cardnumber, surname, firstname ... 1, 123456, 'Fischer', 'Katrin' ... Hope that helps, Katrin
