Hi Koha-community :) just joined in this Koha mailing list and community to discuss Koha-development and deployment topics and ideas. Here is a short introduction of us: --- We have been developing and deploying Koha-installations (based on Koha-3.16 + MariaSB 5.5) for the libraries in Lapland/Finland since July 2016. During that time I have developed Ansible-based Bash-shell tool to develop and deploy Koha-installations and most importantly to help in migrating and comverting PallasPro/Ingress libarary data to our Koha/MariaDB-database. Link to the configuration management and development tool repository in GitHub: https://github.com/jjaone/KohaLXC. Nice to be here, #KohaILS is coming to Lapland too :) --- Cheers for now, -jukka ('roikohadev' and @jjaone in Twitter) PS. If this is not a correct mailinglist/group, please point me to á correct one. If so, to what address should I post to get messages to correct mailing list, thanks. -- Jukka Aaltonen, M.Sc.

Errors when running kohadevbox on Mac
by Owen Leonard 19 Mar '17

19 Mar '17

I've just started up a new kohadevbox installation on my Mac, and I'm getting an internal server error message which I've never seen before. On acqui/neworderbiblio.pl I get a completely blank page with just the words "Internal Server Error." I've double-checked the DebugLevel preference ("all") and I've checked the staff client error logs and found nothing. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org

Multi language item types, branch names, sysprefs value, authorised values, and permission descriptions
by Massoud Alshareef 14 Mar '17

14 Mar '17

Hello Jonathan, Last year with Koha 3.22 came a nice feature to enable Koha libraries to add another description in another language to the following policies' names: item types, branch names, sysprefs value, authorised values, and permission descriptions Enabling this translation feature was implemented with item types description only. When we asked then about the other policies, it was told then that they will follow in upcoming releases. Koha 16.xx then came out, with all its subsequent major/ minor releases following, and this feature do not seem to be placed in the development list to be extended to other policies as promised. I just wonder if we should expect the extension of this feature to enable multi language support of other policies' names sometime soon. Thanks, Massoud M. AlShareef KnowledgeWare

by Marcel de Rooy 13 Mar '17

13 Mar '17

Hi guys, Just wanted to ask some specific attention for two bugs: Bug 9988 Leave larger authority merges to merge_authorities cronjob (pref AuthorityMergeLimit) https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9988 Part of the authority merge omnibus. Bug 18228 Make list permissions easier to use/understand https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=18228 This patch moves the three separate Allow/Don't allow checkboxes for lists into one Combo: Nobody/Owner/Anyone who sees the list No more distinction between add and delete, or delete own and delete other. A change is a change. Thanks, Marcel
