2 solutions :
* you don't have choosen anything during install... (option 3) to check 
this : mainpage/parameters/marc structure/should not be empty (in french 
if it's   unimarc, in english if it's marc21)
* test a small file on demo.koha-fr.org : if it does not load anything, 
then it's definetly not an UNIMARC record :-\
