[Koha] Koha Digest, Vol 82, Issue 20

Hi Joel,

You are probably safe to get rid of some old system logs.  I am using a different distro than you but I think these are in the same place.  If I look in /var/log on my system, I see a number of files named syslog.N.gz (N being a number).  These go back a few days.  I believe at one point they were building up on my system and sucking down a lot of disk space, and I did something so they would automatically delete off after a week.  Wish I could tell you what that was, I don't remember. Make sure you don't delete the current one named syslog, or the one named syslog.1 but you can probably get rid of older ones just to give you some wiggle room. You should take a look at syslog.1 to get an idea of what is being recorded in there.  Mine are full of the cron job entries for Koha.

Something else that might help you is the "du" command.  You can find some info about that here: http://www.codecoffee.com/tipsforlinux/articles/22.html or just do "man du" .  I have used this in the past to find the directories that were particularly large, then figured out what was being stored there and if it was necessary.

Unfortunately I can't recommend anything else, as I don't know your system.  Deleting the wrong file can cause havoc with Linux.  Linux will even let you delete the entire file system with one command when you are logged in as root, so be careful.  I would suggest you try for some more help on the Redhat forums.

Best,

Doug

Hi Joel,

>From the command line do "df -h" .

It will show you the disk space used and what remains on each partition.

You are probably out of disk space.

Hi

We have Koha 2.2.9 running on Fedora 5, recently the MySQL database is

On koha 3.6.4 borrowers with overdues are being restricted. We don't
want them to be restricted.

Restrictions are put in place about 5 minutes before emailed overdue
notices are received, so guessing it's the same process.

Overdue notice/status triggers Restrict column is unchecked.
Preference OversBlockCirc is set to Don't block
All fines are set to 0.00, MaxFine is set to 0.00. Maxoutstanding and
Noissuescharge is set to 100.00.

Anyone see any obvious preferences we may have missed that could be
causing this?

Cheers

Tim Hannah

Dear All,

I am new to Debian and Koha, Can you guide me for space allocation in
Debian
Partition?
I will be using only one operating System: Debian 6.0.5 (Squeeze); and
the
system is dedicated for  Koha 3.8.3; Hard disk space is: 320 GB, RAM:
2GB

Could you please guide me for meaningful partitioning of Debian.

/(root) = ?
/boot =?
/usr =?
/var =?
/opt =?
/tmp =?
/backup for koha-data (manually created)  =?

Thank You.
Ram.

It's not exactly "obvious," but could you check the Overdue
notice/status
triggers again, and make sure that you either don't have overdue
triggers
for any libraries other than the default library, or that *none* of them
have the Restrict box checked?

Also, when you say "restricted," what is the exact message you are
getting
when you go to check out books to this patron? (or, if you are noticing
the
restriction in another context, where exactly do you notice the
restrictions)

Regards,
Jared

Ah ha!

Thank you Jared!

Tim, if you go to Overdue notice/status triggers and switch the
library drop down from All, to Ministry of Education.

I bet you have restrict switched on there.
