My mistake. I've setup a wrong ScriptAlias line in apache
configuration. Probably i got an error from 1.2.0 instal script, because
i've created an include apache configuration file with koha setup.
Solved. ;)

Something is not clear... i'll try to explain.

I've acquisition=simple, i've tring to set to =normal and i've to say
something after on this.

I've to insert a book. I go to:

	http://koha.sv.lnf.it/cgi-bin/koha/acqui.simple/addbooks.pl

and type ISBN:

	88-324-3689-2

Then i fill the form, like:

  Title		Capire la contabilità e il bilancio
  Subtitle	Dalle scritture contabili in euro al bilancio
		d'esercizio: aspetti civilistici, contabili, fiscali
  Author	P. Ceppellini - R. Lugano - C. Negri
  Series Title (if applicable)
		Contabilità e Bilancio
  Copyright Date
		1999

submit data, and a new form, i've insert data about publisher and
leave most of the field empty.
Then i submit data, and form return to the start (Section One:
Copyright Information). Seems that section 3 missed, but i don't know
if it is a feature becasue i've leaved too much field of the section
two form empty).

Book are inserted, i can lookup in opac but, for example, i've not
inserted keyword anywhere.

Now i want to edit this book, eg because i've forgot an author or i've
to insert keywords.
Go to:
	http://koha.sv.lnf.it/cgi-bin/koha/search.pl

search for ``capire'' and found the book. Click into the title lead me
to the page:

	http://koha.sv.lnf.it/cgi-bin/koha/detail.pl?type=intra&bib=3&title=Capire%20la%20contabilit%E0%20e%20il%20bilancio

where the upper leftmost window with ``biblio record 3'' say nothing
(all filed empty apart additional authors), and if i click modify, all
field (also additional authors) are empty, and i can insert all data i
want, they are not recorded (seems that).

As a note, if i follow in same page the link acquisition (right box
with instructions), i'll go to normal acquisition schema, not simple.


I think i've found some bugs, but also i think i miss some basic
information about library and how they works... ;)))

Translation by gettext works only for opac, not koha, right?!

Thanks, i think that this can easily be automated by install script.
