[Koha] 2.2.8 - Z3950 returning only one incorrect result

[Mike Dalgity]

Hi, OK I found the cause of my Z39.50 search problem but I'm going to need
someone with more Perl experience to help me out here.  I uncommented all
the warn statements in cgi-bin/z3950/search.pl and added a few of my own to
find the cause.  First off I've been searching only by ISBN and addbiblio.pl
appears to build the URL correctly.
http://172.16.1.153:8080/cgi-bin/koha/z3950/search.pl?oldbiblionumber=&isbn=
0842308245

I noticed in the log that the isbn value is correct but the search term
incorrectly has just a "/" like this:

isbn : 0842308245 at /var/www/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/z3950/search.pl line
107.
query @attr 1=7 "/" at /var/www/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/z3950/search.pl line
119.

I added this line right after the variable declarations in search.pl:
warn "taii :$title-$author-$isbn-$issn";

and discovered the output to be:
taii :/-/-0842308245-/ at /var/www/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/z3950/search.pl
line 64.

Can anyone explain to me why this section of code seems to set uninitialized
input parameters to "/"'s?  Because from what I can tell it shouldn't!
my $title = $input->param('title');
my $author = $input->param('author');
my $isbn = $input->param('isbn');
my $issn = $input->param('issn');

Much Thanks,
Mike D.

Hi, I've got a problem where Z3950 seems to be returning only one incorrect
result no matter what the search criteria is.  I have both AMICUS and LOC
setup to be searched.  Here's what appears in the logs:

The single result returned from amicus.collectionscanada.ca is:
Roles, an introduction to the study of social relations / 	Banton, Michael
P. 	0422714909(pbk)

but it should be (it is in both AMICUS and LOC):
Endurance : Shackleton's incredible voyage / Alfred Lansing		0842308245

Did I miss something?  Thanks for any assistance.
Mike D.
