Koha 3.0.4 searching not working
by Zico 23 Nov '09

23 Nov '09

Hi, I have just installed Koha-3.0.4 in my Debian 5.0. I exactly followed the README instruction file of Koha-3.0.4. My koha is installed , but i cannot search there too. Here, i want to add that, i am using Zebra there. I followed the below commands in my Koha-3.0.1 and it worked well. But, now, also after using these commands, i cannot activate my searching.: export PERL5LIB=/usr/share/koha/lib export KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/koha-conf.xml cd /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/ zebraidx -c /etc/koha/zebradb/zebra-biblios.cfg -g iso2709 -d biblios init zebraidx -c /etc/koha/zebradb/zebra-authorities.cfg -g iso2709 -d authorities init ./rebuild_zebra.pl -b -w chmod -R 755 /usr/share/koha/ chmod -R 777 /var/lib/koha/zebradb/ chmod -R 777 /var/lock/koha/zebradb/ -- Best, Zico

Koha 3.0.4 + something missing
by Zico 23 Nov '09

23 Nov '09

Hi, I have just installed Koha-3.0.4 in my new system. There i cannot find some buttons like "Term loan policies", "Circulation and fines policies", "Apply Circulation and fines rules", "Library Transfer Limits", "Item Circulation Alerts" & "Fine Threshold and Transfer Configuration rules" under Patrons and circulation; but, i got those in the demo of liblime. I cannot understand what should i do! Is this my fault or are those really unavailable in Koha-3.0.4? But, they are in liblime demo. -- Best, Zico

introduction and request
by Joe Ellis 21 Nov '09

21 Nov '09

Hello List; I am a retired person with experience in developing databases on Macintosh computers and I have been asked to assist the librarian at a small private school in Connecticut to upgrade the Library's tool for administering their small library. The tool they were using was called "Winnebago" and was hosted on an OS 8.5 Macintosh. The application can generate an export file in MARC21 format and after a lot of looking, I found Koha, which looks like an ideal solution for them to transition to. The school uses Macs almost exclusively and I have the option of installing on a server running OS 10.4 server or one of several intel Macs running 10.5 or 10.6. I am fairly comfortable using the command line in Terminal or X11 and have some knowledge of MySQL although I may be a little rusty. Is there anyone on this list who would be willing to provide me with guidance or directions for installing Koha. I've already confirmed my MARC records will install using the LibLime demo site. Thanks for any suggestions you can provide. Joe Ellis Canterbury, Ct.

Zebra indexing question
by Chadwick, John, DCA 18 Nov '09

18 Nov '09

I am noticing some errors in the koha-zebradaemon-output.log file. When new records are added it takes a bit longer to index than we think they should. Running rebuild zebra is often faster. The log file shows the following: 14:31:44-18/11 zebrasrv(55) [warn] Failed to open /var/lib/bbmkoha/zebradb/biblios/register/reci-0.mf [Permission denied] 14:31:44-18/11 zebrasrv(55) [fatal] mf_write: reci error (1) 14:31:44-18/11 zebrasrv(55) [fatal] write commit block 14:31:44-18/11 zebrasrv(55) [warn] zebra_commit: failed Zebra ends up indexing and search works, but I am concerned about the errors. Any ideas? Thanks, John +----------------------------------------------------------------------- -----+ John Chadwick, Ed.D.

Zebra search for "lost" / "onloan" items gives up a ERROR 114
by Rick Welykochy 16 Nov '09

16 Nov '09

Hi yall, In continuing effort to complete an install of Koha/3.0.1 and get the OPAC search working, we've run into a snag. All query stemming, fuzzines, etc has been turned off. We can do a simple search for "drame" and see 50 results. When we refine the search to a branch, it works - smaller result set. But when we refine the search to "items available" we get nothing in the result set and zebrasrv reports an ERROR 114. Here is the query as emitted by Koha: drame and (( ( allrecords,AlwaysMatches='' not onloan,AlwaysMatches='') and (lost,st-numeric=0) )) And here is the query as interpreted by zebrasrv: ERROR 114 1 1+0 RPN @attrset Bib-1 @and drame @and @not @attr "1=_ALLRECORDS" @attr 2=103 '' @attr 1=8024 @attr 2=103 '' @attr 1=8002 @attr 4=109 @attr 2=3 0 Finally, here are the two relevant lines from record.abs: melm 952$q onloan:n,onloan:w melm 952$x lost,lost:n I am told by those in the know that the ERROR 114 refers to an unknown / unmapped MARC field. We are positive the above two fields are in the MARC. Any ideas why this query is returning an ERROR 114?
