Hi Katrin,

Thanks, I have never used a client for IRC, but I will try pidgin. What would be the address then? Is it irc.oftc.net:6667  ?

thanks,
Bruck T

Hi Bruck,

the web link hasn't worked for me in a while - the #koha tab doesn't open and only the status one is shown for me. Do you have access to a program like pidgin or another IRC client maybe that you could use instead?

Hi Jonathan,

I have been connected to this Koha channel (https://webchat.oftc.net/?channels=koha) through a browser for a while now, but I do not see any activity. May be I am not in the right, Can you send me the link to the right channel.

Many thanks,
Bruck T.

I am expecting to see something just before this error. Maybe you did not restart plack?
Consider jumping into IRC and catch me there, that would be easier ;)

I search the archive online saw the advice to update the two fields<https://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/2017-September/048966.html> (UPDATE items SET homebranch='LIB', holdingbranch='LIB'). I have done that and did the full reindex. But, that does not seem to have helped. Please advise.
