Hello All - Having trouble withe the installation of Koha 3.00.00 on a Linux LAMP server running Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon. Have downloaded and untarred the koha tar ball, have MySQL 5.0.51 running, Apache 2.2.8 and zebra installed, and according to the installation file within Koha, I also went ahead and downloaded CGI::Session::serialize::yaml (ver. 4.14) directly from CPAN. when running sudo make test, the make fails on scrubber test: ~:/build/koha-3.00.00$ sudo make test PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 KOHA_CONF=blib/KOHA_CONF_DIR/koha-conf.xml /usr/bin/ perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'blib/ PERL_MODULE_DIR', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t t/Amazon....................ok t/Barcodes_PrinterConfig....ok t/Bookfund..................ok t/Bookseller................ok t/Boolean...................ok t/Branch....................ok t/Calendar..................ok t/Charset...................ok t/Debug.....................# BEFORE use: $debug is not defined # BEFORE use: $cgi_debug is not defined t/Debug.....................ok 1/3# AFTER use: $debug is 0 # AFTER use: $cgi_debug is 0 # Done. t/Debug.....................ok t/dummy.....................ok t/Input.....................ok t/Koha......................ok t/Languages.................ok t/Maintainance..............ok t/Output....................ok t/Record....................ok t/Review....................ok t/Scrubber.................. # Failed test 'use C4::Scrubber;' # in t/Scrubber.t at line 10. # Tried to use 'C4::Scrubber'. # Error: Can't locate HTML/Scrubber.pm in @INC (@INC contains: / build/koha-3.00.00/t /build/koha-3.00.00/blib/PERL_MODULE_DIR /build/ koha-3.00.00/blib/arch /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.8 /usr/local/ share/perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8 / usr/share/perl/5.8 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /build/koha-3.00.00/ blib/PERL_MODULE_DIR/C4/Scrubber.pm line 20. # BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at t/Scrubber.t line 10. # Compilation failed in require at (eval 5) line 2. # BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at (eval 5) line 2. t/Scrubber..................NOK 1# Note: scrubber test output will have whitespace collapsed for readability Can't locate object method "new" via package "C4::Scrubber" at t/ Scrubber.t line 48. # Looks like you planned 10 tests but only ran 1. # Looks like you failed 1 test of 1 run. # Looks like your test died just after 1. t/Scrubber..................dubious Test returned status 255 (wstat 65280, 0xff00) DIED.

icu diacrtics and search problems
by Chadwick, John, DCA 06 Nov '08

06 Nov '08

Okay, here is a very good mystery for everyone. Koha 3.01.00.002 on Ubuntu 8. When we use the default.idx file with Koha and the word-phrase-utf.chr file, Koha searches perfectly fine and life is good, except for diacritics. So, we modify the default.idx file and use the icu.xml file and diacritics work correctly. Searching is a different matter. Keyword searching fails unless the search term has kw= in front of the term. Also, the search term followed by an asterisk also works. Title, author and all the other search functions work. I got the following from the opac error log: [Thu Nov 06 11:06:02 2008] [error] [client xxxxxxx] HTML::Template::Pro:in TMPL_IF at pos 2399:end tag:found e instead of > at pos 2425 [Thu Nov 06 11:06:02 2008] [error] [client xxxxxxx] HTML::Template::Pro:in TMPL_IF at pos 2860:end tag:found e instead of > at pos 2886 I am ready to entertain any ideas or suggestions.

GetMember() cardnumber vs. firstname search
by Galen Charlton 06 Nov '08

06 Nov '08

Hi, C4::Members::GetMember(), when used to look up a patron by cardnumber, retries the search on borrowers.firstname if there are no rows that have the barcode in borrowers.cardnumber. This is not exactly beautiful, and I assi,e it was inspired by some library that for whatever reason needed to overload the firstname field. Does anybody know of a reason (or a current user) why this odd fallback should be retained?

Whitespace fixes
by Galen Charlton 05 Nov '08

05 Nov '08

Hi, As was pointed out in connection with a recent patch, it can be difficult to evaluate patches that combine both functional and whitespace fixes, particularly if a significant amount of the patch simply changes indentation. If you find it necessary to reformat a large chunk of code, please consider structuring your patches so that whitespace fixes are completely separate from functional changes.

problem with CGI::Session (Auth ERROR : cannot get_session() )
by Paul POULAIN 05 Nov '08

05 Nov '08

Hello, The maintainers of the CGI::Session package have splitted the package in smaller pieces. If you install or upgrade CGI::Session to 4.38, you won't have CGI::Session::serialize::yaml, and Koha won't work anymore at all (impossible to get a session, so, you'll get a nasty "Auth ERROR: Cannot get_session()" The solution is to install the CGI::Session::serialize::yaml package, it's simple ! We will update Koha installer for 3.0.1 to check for this dependancy explicitly. -- Paul POULAIN http://www.biblibre.com Expert en Logiciels Libres pour l'info-doc NOUVEAU TELEPHONE : 04 91 81 35 08 _______________________________________________ Koha-devel mailing list Koha-devel(a)nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/koha-devel

Trouble with Business::ISBN for Lenny

Hello, I am trying to install koha3 on Debian 'lenny' using the instructions for 'sarge'. I know that this is a problem straight up but it was the best strategy I could come up with given no other resources that I could find. All has worked well to this point.
