1.3.3 and MARC21/english parameters
by paul POULAIN 21 Jan '03

21 Jan '03

I've developped a new feature that checks the consistency of MARC parameters table. It does 7 differents tests. If you installed the 1.3.3 version with the MARC21/english parameters and test it with this new feature, you'll see 3 errors ! Those explain some of errors reported on the 1.3.3 Please, get this feature (on cvs), and fix the MARC21 parameter table ! -- Paul POULAIN Consultant indépendant en logiciels libres responsable francophone de koha (SIGB libre http://www.koha-fr.org)

[Bug 173] intranet startup failure - 1.3.3
by bugzilla-daemon＠wilbur.katipo.co.nz 21 Jan '03

http://bugs.koha.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=173 erik.stainsby(a)modern-alchemy.net changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- OS/Version| |All ------- Additional Comments From erik.stainsby(a)modern-alchemy.net 2003-01-21 22:47 ------- Correction: the splash image (although missing from the bundle) is not the culprit. I have replaced it with a placeholder, still getting internal server error 500. It seems to me that the template engine is not able to find the default templates directory... My base install is /usr/local/koha ergo, /usr/local/koha/intranet/htdocs/intranet-tmpl/default/en/ is the template location .... It is undocumented(?) where to place this information to inform the templates engine of the correct path. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact.

"Add item" interface in CVS
by Ambrose Li 21 Jan '03

21 Jan '03

Hi, in the new MARC-based acquisition interface, where do I enter the book title and related things? I don't see tags 100/245 (MARC21) etc. in the MARC editor, and I can't find it in the "items" screen either. (It has fields for "homebranch", "barcode", "dateaccessioned", "notforloan", "Koha item number", and "Koha notes" only.) I guess I don't understand how the MARC editor works; can anyone help me? :-) The other thing might be a bug: when I finally get to items and press Add item, I get an item record. Then it gets assigned a Koha item number (e.g., 2245). If I select the item, Modify it, and press Modify item, the screen shows the item number reduplicated (e.g., 2245 becomes 22452245). If I modify it again the item number gets reduplicated again. I find this strange. Regards, -- Ambrose Li <a.c.li(a)ieee.org>

gettext
by Ambrose Li 20 Jan '03

20 Jan '03

Hi, I was looking at the tree and found a note on gettext. Is this stuff going to be used? i.e., should we handle translations solely through HTML::Template, or should we handle them through HTML::Template + gettext? -- Ambrose Li <a.c.li(a)ieee.org>

A Win32 circulation client (beginning stages)
by Patrick Quinn-Graham 20 Jan '03

20 Jan '03

Firstly: let me apologise - I posted this to koha-win32 as well. I've only come across Koha in the last few days, and am certainly excited by what I see: it's about time there was an opensource project like this. My one thing is: I'm not entirely sure I like the idea of doing Circulation type things through a web browser. So, here's the bit where I risk being unpopular: I've started writing a Windows client, for now I've only just started, but intend to do at least issueing/returning of materials. It's written in VisualBasic, so unfortunately probably won't be easily ported anywhere else, but so far doesn't use any non-standard controls, so it could be possible. It's currently sitting at a measly 132kb. (Plus, of course the VB stuff). It access the Koha system by connecting directly to the mySQL database using Microsoft Remote Data Objects and the myODBC connector, and authenticates based on the auth table. (I'm not sure how passwords are protected in there at the moment, as I just made up that part of my application - it md5's them, and stores them that way). Would any one else find this useful? If I release it, it will be under the GPL - it's not really based on Koha code, but I think it's only right. Just a little bio on me: I'm an 18 Software Engineering student at Victoria University (Wellington, New Zealand) - 2003 will be my second year, did all the Library Automation software stuff at my old High School - there we used the MUSAC Library Manager software, so have a reasonable understanding of at least the areas I'm working on here :-). If you want to try a really really early version of it, I'll put one up on my website (just need to recompile). Thanks for your reading time! Patrick.
