[Koha] No patron categories in Munich

[Jonathan Druart]

Hi Frans,

Welcome to the Koha community!

The patch on bug 17069 fixes a bug added by bug 6906, which is not in
16.05. So you should not need it.
What is the error?
You can also try the latest 16.05.04

Regards,
Jonathan

I have little experience and need all the help I can get. Luckily I am not alone in the endeavour: our IT team have set up the Linux server and I will be able to involve professional help when migrating our old Allegro-C records into Koha.

I noticed that I am not alone in this predicament (Bugzilla Bug 17069), and read that a solution may be forthcoming after November. I wonder what I should do now. Should I just proceed as the database administrative user, or will that limit what I can do with the programme? Or is there a fix? Benjamin Rokseth proposed one (Bugzilla Bug 17069 Comment 1) but I am unable to replicate this. Did I miss any other easy solution?
