Error when returning reserved item
by Owen Leonard 09 May '03

09 May '03

I get an error when I try to return an item which has a reserve on it. The entry in koha-error_log is this: Unknown error code ResFound at /usr/local/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/circ/returns.pl line 254. My Perl knowledge is lacking, so I can't puzzle it out from returns.pl. What does ResFound signify? -- Owen Nelsonville Public Library Koha 1.9.2

Some doubts
by Emiliano Marmonti 09 May '03

09 May '03

Hello all I'm part of a workgroup that are evaluating (and starting Spanish translation) for Argentinian Universities of Koha 1.92 and have some problems, perhaps somebody could clarify me what I´m doing wrong, or if correspond that this observations are bugs that are already reported. 1. Aquisitions Module. I have set into System Preferences Aquisitions to normal and don't see any changes, I mean that in older versions of Koha from this place I could access to biblio or biblio items under Catalogue Maintainance. I suppose this is replaced by MARC option isn't it? In a lot of places of the software are references that indicates to go to Acquisition... 2. I have set MARC OFF and don't see any changes. From MARC/Biblio I could access to MARC records only, I could access to biblio record from the OPAC but could not add for example an item. From MARC option I could access to MARC (that don't works) and items but could not add an item (see below). 3. MARC Module. If I try to edit a record only could access to groups 0XX, 1XX y 2XX the rest are blank and the data is not filled in fields and no Javascript/Perl or Apache error is reported... I'm using MARC::Record 0.93. If I try to add Items from this screen the system looks like adding items but are not related to the biblio record. I could see that MARC structure is complete, I mean that are all the fields for MARC21 (2XX,3XX,4XX, etc) from System Preferences. 4. Aquisitions. I could not add a supplier, simply adding it does nothing. I have to touch something like deleting an input field in orders.tmpl for accessing. Only could access biblio from here. Idem for an order. 5. Somebody could explain me the use of ethnicity (sorry I'm trying to translate to spanish and don't understand the meaning and use) and the utility of the option Virtual Shelves? 6. I've seen that anybody could place a request, that is anybody that isn't identified for example. In the other hand I've seen that when I try to make an issue of a book that has request, Koha makes an advice indicating that this book has requests, and prompts if I wish to delete the request. But the process enters in a loop, I mean after all the answers continues with the first question of the set... Well, that's all. I'm trying to test if all this things are happening in this Koha version or could have something in my deploy that is not working OK. Thanks a lot Emiliano Marmonti ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/

Koha and MARC::Record 1.25
by paul POULAIN 08 May '03

08 May '03

Hi ed, I've just dl and install the last version of MARC::Record. In my error log, i get dozens of : Use of uninitialized value in hash element at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/MARC/Record.pm line 206, <fh00001env174.1.txt> line 1. I hadn't such lines before. Do you have an explanation ? This happends (at least) in the following code. The MARC data comes from an external source (various sources doesn't change anything) : In Breeding.pm : my $marcrecord = MARC::File::USMARC::decode($marcarray[$i]."\x1D"); ... my $oldbiblio = MARCmarc2koha($dbh,$marcrecord); ... MARCmarc2koha calls MARCmarc2kohaOneField for each field : sub MARCmarc2kohaOneField { my ($sth,$kohatable,$kohafield,$record,$result)= @_; my $res=""; my $tagfield; my $subfield; $sth->execute($kohatable.".".$kohafield); ($tagfield,$subfield) = $sth->fetchrow; foreach my $field ($record->field($tagfield)) { if ($field->subfield($subfield)) { if ($result->{$kohafield}) { $result->{$kohafield} .= " | ".$field->subfield($subfield); } else { $result->{$kohafield}=$field->subfield($subfield); } } } return $result; } NOTE : I haven't found marc::record mailing lists ? -- Paul POULAIN Consultant indépendant en logiciels libres responsable francophone de koha (SIGB libre http://www.koha-fr.org)

Wednesday, May 7, 2003 22:53 CDT !Ola Emiliano¡ I can't answer most of the questions that you asked, but I am sure someone knowledgeable will draft a useful response soon. I think the word you are translating as "ethnicity" may be for "language". The idea of Virtual Shelves options, with Koha and other pricey library systems, is to give a patron the sense of what he or she would see on the same shelf (same general area) of the collection as the specific title sought. Hope that helps a bit. Steven F. Baljkas Koha neophyte eagerly awaiting full-MARC21 Winnipeg, MB

The ILS, the Library Catalog, and Information Gathering
by Joshua Ferraro 07 May '03

07 May '03

Hi All: Pat suggested that I post this link: http://www.libraryopensourcesolutions.com/ilsbiblio.html It's to an annotated bibliography that I prepared a while back on the topic, "The Integrated Library System, the Library Catalog and Information Gathering." Right now it includes only a few summaries and links: Roy Tenant's relevant articles, a Koha2010 thread, and a few search services that demonstrate several different approaches to information gathering. Obviously there's a lot of room for expansion. If anyone has any further content--descriptions, links, or other resources--email me and I will gladly add it. Joshua
