This problem has been reported in a previous discussion, back in August:

Nabble- Discuss - Items add error
http://old.nabble.com/Items-add-error-td24911394.html

If you read that discussion, you'll notice that a bug was open, at the
time, for that issue:

Bug 3520 - crash when adding or editing item record
http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3520

The good news is that this bug has been fixed in Koha 3.0.4 that was
released on 21 October!  :)

You can check this by reading the Release Notes for Koha 3.0.4, that
are available at:

http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=blob;f=misc/release_notes/release_notes_30004.txt;h=44318a6cd1dd6c9dec388f544daaadfdfb27442a;hb=2eba46985bb67eadf7fe896dbe50df4d995e03a5

In that "Release Notes" page, in the section "Exhaustive list of bugs
fixed follows" you'll find, among many other bug fixes, the following
line: "3520 fix crash when adding or editing items".

So, my question is: are you using the version 3.0.4 of Koha? If NOT,
then my advice would be for you to update/upgrade your installation to
Koha 3.0.4, and see if that solves your problem. If you *are* already
using Koha 3.0.4, then I suggest that you reopen that Bug 3520 and
provide further input.

I hope that helps.
