https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=22217 Bug ID: 22217 Summary: error "Connection to the memcached servers '__MEMCACHED_SERVERS__' failed" during install Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 18.11 Hardware: PC OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 - low Component: Installation and upgrade (command-line installer) Assignee: koha-bugs(a)lists.koha-community.org Reporter: giuseppe.ciaccio(a)unige.it QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org Target Milestone: --- I'm trying to install Koha on a fresh Debian 9.7 32-bit, following the instructions at https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_Debian . I work as root so I have all privileges. One of the installation steps consists of editing file /etc/koha/koha-sites.conf . Inside koha-sites.con, I find the following row: USE_MEMCACHED="yes" 1.1) start memcached in the localhost (this action is not reported in the instructions but is needed): root@myhost:~# service memcached start 1.2) ensure that memcached is indeed active and listening at port 11211 root@myhost:~# ps ax PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND ... 16908 ?

Ssl 0:00 /usr/bin/memcached -m 64 -p 11211 -u memcache -l 127. ... 1.3) proceed with install procedure, get worrying error messages root@myhost:~# koha-create --create-db mylibrary Koha instance is empty, no staff user created. [ ok ] Starting Koha indexing daemon for mylibrary:. root@myhost:~# koha-translate --install it-IT Connection to the memcached servers '__MEMCACHED_SERVERS__' failed. Are the unix socket permissions set properly? Is the host reachable? If you ignore this warning, you will face performance issues Connection to the memcached servers '__MEMCACHED_SERVERS__' failed. Are the unix socket permissions set properly? Is the host reachable? If you ignore this warning, you will face performance issues Use of uninitialized value $pref_name in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/share/koha/misc/translator/LangInstaller.pm line 197. Use of uninitialized value $pref_name in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/share/koha/misc/translator/LangInstaller.pm line 239. 1.4) at this point, try not to use memcached and repeat the koha-translate step, get same error as before root@myhost:~# vi /etc/koha/koha-sites.conf ...set USE_MEMCACHED="no" root@myhost:~# koha-translate --update it-IT Connection to the memcached servers '__MEMCACHED_SERVERS__' failed.

So it seems that I) the language installer tries to connect to memcached, no matter the value of USE_MEMCACHED II) the language installer fails to connect to memcached even if the daemon is up and listening to the right port. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=16735 Bug ID: 16735 Summary: Replace existing library search groups functionality with the new hierarchical groups system Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Architecture, internals, and plumbing Assignee: gmcharlt(a)gmail.com Reporter: kyle(a)bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testopia(a)bugs.koha-community.org We should replace the existing library search groups with the use of the new hierarchical groups system so that old system can be removed completely. General outline: 1) Add the option to each group for it to be a "search" group 2) Port over existing groups by creating a new group for each "categorycode" in the branchrelations table 3) Re-implement the group search using the new system, remove the old system -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Here are a number of improvements: 1. A minimum length of 10 characters that can't be lowered via minPasswordLength 2. Should contain 3 of the following 4 sets (lowercase, uppercase, numbers, special characters) 3. Not be the same as a previously set password 4. Should not include dictionary words or common passwords (This could be challenging to do comprehensively on low spec systems, although one variation of this could be to add a customizable list of passwords to exclude.) 5.
