[Koha] Hello and a problem w/ koha 3 on debian

[Steven Owley]

Hi everyone and thanks,

Well, a step forward.  Now I am getting "production mode - trapped fatal
error" on port 8080.  I killed the koha database, and went through the koha
installation again.

I am not sure what the problem may be.  "Make test" went without error.

If I use koha.mydomain.org:8080 I get the error message I just mentioned.
If I use localhost:8080 I get the apache default "it works" page.

I tried a manual install of CGI::Session, and while it went OK, it did not
fix the problem, as you can see below.  (During installation of
CGI::Session, tests indicated that it could not attach to the mysql db, but
this did not stop the installation.)

I get these errors in koha-error_log (there are no new errors in
koha-opac-error_log):

[Tue May 27 15:50:39 2008] [error] [client 198.xxx.xxx.5] [Tue May 27
15:50:39 2008] mainpage.pl: DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Table

15:50:40 2008] install.pl: Can't locate object method "generate_id" via
package "CGI::Session::ID::" (perhaps you forgot to load
"CGI::Session::ID::"?) at /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8/CGI/Session.pm line
74.

I created the koha database and kohaadmin user in phpmyadmin.  The password
for kohaadmin is the same as the makefile suggests.

Thanks,

Steve
