Z39.50 admin script in RC20
by Tonnesen Steve 25 Oct '02

25 Oct '02

The Z39.50 admin script in RC20 is a bit goofy. The main problem is that the server name field is restricted to 5 characters. I was using 'NLC' for my testing, so I didn't notice it. Contrary to past practice, I won't release RC21 for that alone. If you want the fixed version grab admin/z3950servers.pl out of CVS, or wait for RC21 next week. Have a good weekend, everybody.

[Bug 117] Authentication URLs contain failed authentication information

Auth.pm now removes any userid or password parameters in the URL that it is called with. This isn't necessarily a good thing. It's possible that a valid form could be filled out, then the timeout expires before the user hits submit. If the user then fails to login successfully, any userid or password parameters from that original form will be blanked out when they user does log in successfully. This is an awful lot of 'if's but it _could_ happen. :) ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact.

[Koha-win32] One person's experience with W32 install (fwd)
by Pat Eyler 25 Oct '02

This may better be answered over here, please make sure you CC: Rob on any emails though ... -pate ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Fri, 25 Oct 2002 14:48:20 -0500 From: robweir(a)alum.drexel.edu To: koha-win32(a)lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Koha-win32] One person's experience with W32 install Greetings: I am forwaring in this email a number of exchanges I've had with one person who was brave enough to try the W32 Koha install. He has it up and running, but is getting errors on some pages and cannot access others. Could a couple of you more experienced Koha users take a look at the last email or two and tell us if what he is seeing is characteristic of V1.2.3RC14? I know that is a beta release and has some bugs in it. Would I be better to use V1.2.2 for testing on windows? Thanks for your help! I'll be away for the weekend, so won't be repsponding to emails until Monday.

Other networks on the intranet can now access the sample database. I still have a few question. Is the current installation of koha for win32 complete? Because it only opens KOHA SEARCH CATALOG. I cannot fine the aquisition, circulation and other modules on koha library system; but the koha search page works well. Thanks for any help. nic --- robweir(a)alum.drexel.edu wrote: From: <robweir(a)alum.drexel.edu To: "nicanor pacaide jr" <nicans(a)yahoo.com Subject: Re: koha win32 up and running on local network Date: Wed, 23 Oct 2002 07:41:16 -0500 Hi Nic, Glad to hear you got it running. All the modules are there. Koha has two user interfaces - 'opac' for clients searching for books and 'intranet' for the library staff doing all the other functions. You have connected to the opac interface. The install that you ran creates two Apache virtual directories - one named simply 'opac' and the other named 'intranet'. The configuration for these virtual directories is at the very end of the Apache config file called httpd. conf that you can find in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\conf. Normally, virtual directories would have names like www.mycompany.com and would make use of name resolution provided by your network domain controller, but to keep things simple on my stand-alone test machine, I named them simply 'opac' and 'intranet'. The install then makes an entry in the lmhosts file in C:\Windows on Windows 98 or in the hosts file in C:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc on WinNT or W2000 machines to refer both 'opac' and 'intranet' back to 127.0.0.1, the IP address of your local machine. On my test workstation, I can type simply opac on the address line of my browser to access the opac interface or I can type intranet to access the librarian/intranet interface. I think the virtual directories are set up so if you type 'localhost' or the local IP address, it defaults to the opac interface. My goal was to have something people could test on a single machine without getting involved with DNS name resolution, etc. Have you tried 'intranet' as the url in your browser? Of course, to use Koha on the network, you'll need to do some reading on how to set up Apache virtual directories and change the virtual directory setup in httpd. conf to work correctly on your network. But first, see if you can get everything working on the machine you installed on. Hope this helps.

Honestly, I don't know the best way to help you. The problem is name resolution. Your browser is going out to the DNS server on the internet and asking it to resolve the url and it doesn't know anything about opac or intranet. Some how it needs to look locally first. Are you behind a proxy server? You could try setting your browser options to "bypass proxy server for local addresses". Are you on a LAN with a domain controller? You could ask your MIS person to add DNS records to the DNS server for Koha. Or there are serveral other ways to set up Apache virtual directories using names, IP addresses, or ports. I have the install I gave you working stand alone on a W98 machine, a W2000 machine, and a WinNT machine, so I think all the Koha files are ok where they are. You need to play with the Apache configuration or Windows name resolution to get it working. There are a bunch of Apache documents installed on your machine probably in C:\Program Files\Apache\Apache2\Manual. However a lot of them have a language suffix attached. If you want to use english, rename all the .html.en files to .html files and then start with index.html. Look at the sections in the manual for "Virtual Hosts" and "Mapping URL's to the Filesystem". Also look at dns-caveats.html in the same manual folder. There is a manual for Koha at http://koha.org/manual/t20.html that has some information on configuring Apache. If that doesn't help, try some research on the internet. I tried searching Google groups for "apache windows dns" and it came up with a good bit on what you are describing. The Apache website might have more information or there may be other websites if you search. I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help. Maybe you can figure out this part of the project, or I can post these emails to the koha-w32 list tomorrow and see if someone else can help us.
