Hi Alvaro

The module referred in the message is an external perl module you have to install separately.

You can find it in metacpan here:

https://metacpan.org/pod/WebService::ILS::OverDrive::Patron

Note I don't know if there are additional configs to do or how to integrate it with koha.

Thanks for your message! I have seen that this module is available in Meta CPAN. But I don't think this is the proper way to solve this problem in our Debian package installation of Koha 18.05.03. Especially since there are only four system preferences instead of eight anyway. At the moment I guess the desired Overdrive integration was never (fully) functional in Koha 18.05.03 and we will have to update to a newer version to actually use the Overdrive integration as intended.

Hi

In our library we are using Koha 18.05.03 on Debian GNU/Linux 8.

According to https://bywatersolutions.com/education/overdrive-integration-in-koha <https://bywatersolutions.com/education/overdrive-integration-in-koha> Overdrive is integrated within Koha. From Overdrive we have got several bits of information but in Koha 18.05 we have only the following available system preferences:

* OverDriveCirculation * OverDriveClientKey * OverDriveClientSecret * OverDriveLibraryID

Filling these in indeed shows the new tab "OverDrive account" in the OPAC user account, but then an "Internal Server Error":

Could not compile /usr/share/koha/opac/cgi-bin/opac/external/overdrive/auth.pl <http://auth.pl>: Can't locate WebService/ILS/OverDrive/Patron.pm in @INC (you may need to install the WebService::ILS::OverDrive::Patron module) (@INC contains: /usr/share/koha/lib /usr/share/koha/installer /usr/share/koha/lib/installer /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.20.2 /usr/local/share/perl/5.20.2 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.20 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.20 /usr/share/perl/5.20 /usr/local/lib/site_perl . /var/lib/koha/sbtreu/plugins) at /usr/share/koha/lib/Koha/ExternalContent/OverDrive.pm line 24.

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/koha/opac/cgi-bin/opac/external/overdrive/auth.pl <http://auth.pl> line 27.

Does anyone know the solution to this?

I see in later versions of Koha there are more preferences:

* OverDriveAuthName * OverDriveUsername * OverDrivePasswordRequired * OverDriveWebsiteID

We have the necessary bits of information from Overdrive but we can't fill them in in Koha 18.05. Does this mean the Overdrive integration in Koha 18.05 is not functional and we will have to update to a newer Koha version?
