Dear Koha Friends, We have tried to bring the records in by two methods, first to point at the old database when installing 4.02; secondly, to do a fresh installation and then using tools > marc staging to import the files already exported from the old system. The first installation seems to work, but searching finds no records. Using the second method, we can see a list of records, but only one of them (the first one) has a Bib number and after clicking on "Import" the progress bar never advances. Sorry for such a clueless question. Does anyone have some clues for us? We are using Marc 21, by the way. Thank you, David -- http://intknowledge.com 91 Suthisan, Dindaeng, Bangkok 10400 Thailand: 084 329 1183; 02 693 8144 Outside Thailand: +66 84 329 1183 (cell); +66 2 693 8144

4.02? There isn't a of Koha out with that number yet. The latest stable is 3.10.x and work is getting underway for 3.12.x hope that helps -- Indranil Das Gupta Phone : +91-98300-20971 Blog : http://indradg.randomink.org/blog IRC : indradg on irc://irc.freenode.net Twitter : indradg -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Please exchange editable Office documents only in ODF Format.

David, Judging by the version number I think you got the proprietary fork from Liblime. I would suggest you install the oldstable release from koha-community.org. Instructions can be found here: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_3.8_on_Debian_Squeeze If you are not installing on Debian or one of its variants (like Ubuntu), there are installation instructions for other linux distros on the wiki here: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Category:Installation Hope that helps, Doug -----Original Message----- From: koha-bounces@lists.katipo.co.nz [mailto:koha-bounces@lists.katipo.co.nz] On Behalf Of David M.
