[Koha] Problem importing MARC records into Koha

[Judy Chalmers]

The next step is to click on the button "Manage staged records" -- be sure to look under the blue box and click on import this batch into the catalog. If there is nothing there recheck your matching rules, then try to import a different bib.  Hope this helps.

Subject: [Koha] Problem importing MARC records into Koha

Hello,

I am trying to import some very simple MARC records into Koha 16.11. Here are the first two records:

=LDR  00000nam  2200000Ia 45e0
=008  170517s9999\\\\xx\\\\\\\\\\\\000\0\und\d
=100  \\$aErica James
=245  \0$aPrecious Time
=952  \\$p100$yAF$d12/17/2015$aFROGL$bFROGL

=LDR  00000nam  2200000Ia 45e0
=008  170517s9999\\\\xx\\\\\\\\\\\\000\0\und\d
=100  \\$aIan Rankin
=245  \0$aHide and Seek
=952  \\$p101$yCRI$d12/17/2015$aFROGL$bFROGL

(FROGL is my library code.) Having compiled this to a .mrc file using MarcEdit I have tried to import it using the "Stage Marc Records for Import" tool. This tool reports:

MARC staging results :
Processing bibliographic records
2373 records in file
0 records not staged because of MARC error
2373 records staged
Did not check for matches with existing records in catalog
2373 item records found and staged

All seems OK so far, but when I then run the "Manage Staged Marc Records"
tool it tells me that 0 records and 0 items have been staged, and no records are displayed.

I am pretty new to Koha and would appreciate some suggestions on what the problem might be, to save further damage to my head (and the brick wall ...)

Thank you

Chris Brown
