[Koha] Regarding KOha OPAC run time error!

[Gerry Arthus]

Gowri,
These errors are easy to fix, install Koha on Linux. Seriously, Library 
OPACS do not run well in the Windows OS, this has to do with basic 
windows architecture. Unless there is a compelling reason to run Koha on 
a windows box I would not recommend it. If you are using the box for 
other applications, this is also not an optimal situation since 
production servers should not be used as workstations generally.  Since 
Linux can run on low end machines (some of which win XP cannot run on) 
you could always set your server up on a secondary box. For most people 
this does not even apply since one could build a very robust Linux 
enterprise server using CENTOS (the open-source version of Redhat 
Enterprise Server) and a box built with about $280 US in parts. 
Considering what libraries here in the US pay for servers and library 
OPACs, this is a very good deal.
