hold on another branch
by Nahuel ANGELINETTI 22 Nov '08

22 Nov '08

Hi, I'm trying to debug some stuff in holding, and have a (big?) problem when a user hold an item from another branch and want to check out it in his branch. How the actual holding branch know which document it must be send to others? How is it in the database? How is managed the workflow to transfer an hold document to his check out branch? I think there are some leak of this feature, I want to know if it's an error from me, or if there is real leaks? Thanks, bests, -- Nahuel ANGELINETTI

Problems with diacritics
by Rodríguez, José L. 21 Nov '08

21 Nov '08

Good morning, I'm a new member in this list. I,ve installed koha-3.00.00 and it works perfectly. But I have a problem with diacritics. In cataloguing, when I put a character whith diacritic mark (á, é ...) or the letter ñ, I get the next error The following fatal error has occurred: Can't call method "fields" on an undefined value at /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/cataloguing/additem.pl line 193.

bulkmarcimport.pl in Koha/3
by Rick Welykochy 21 Nov '08

21 Nov '08

HI all I adapted a script kindly provided by a Koha/2.2.9 user that converts CSV biblio data into MARC21 records. The MARC21 records are then imported into Koha/2.2.9 using the bulkmarcimport.pl script. This has been working well for about a year now and we are quite pleased with the results. A very powerful tool. When I attempt to use the Koha/3 bulkmarcimport.pl script to import the same MARC21 data (consisting of three biblio records), I get one biblio record in the DB and all of its fields are NULL, except the primary key. This is using the default "out of the box" Koha 3.0 frameworks. I have compared the source code for the bulkmarcimport.pl script between 2.2.9 and 3.0 and it seems to be a completed rewrite. Can someone with the knowledge point me in the right direction to getting bulkmarcimport.pl working in Koha/3? thanks in advance rick welykochy -- ________________________________________________________________ Rick Welykochy || Praxis Services || Internet Driving Instructor When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace. -- Jimi Hendrix

CSS errors
by Rick Welykochy 18 Nov '08

18 Nov '08

Hi all I am fiddling with some CSS and DOM stuff in Koha and thus have the Error Console window opened in Firefox. As was discussed earlier on this list, excessive error and debug messages in the Apache error_log files make them almost unreadable. The same applies in the case of the CSS. There are so many errors in the CSS, as detected by Firefox, that it is difficult to scan through the lot looking for things I myself might have caused. Also, I get an uneasy feeling that the CSS is broken in places due to these errors and might be causing the problems I am having getting my additions to the CSS to work. Try it! Do a catalogue search in the staff area and bring up the Error Console window. You'll see what I am talking about. cheers rickw -- _________________________________ Rick Welykochy || Praxis Services Tis the dream of each programmer before his life is done, To write three lines of APL and make the damn thing run.

PDF patron card scaling setting
by MJ Ray 18 Nov '08

18 Nov '08

A librarian has suggested to me that we should set the scaling in the PDF to stop Acrobat Reader and some other readers from making a mess of the carefully-measured offsets and margins. I didn't see any way in PDF::Reuse to do that - is it possible? I wondered if it's some Acrobat extension to PDF (sigh) or something like that.
