Hi Chris,

 

I used version 5.8.9.2 of the July 2009 release (established this after several problems with 5.10) and was able to install the greater part of the needed  modules (including XML::LibXSLT) ‘relatively’ painlessly via ppm which goes on to download the needed dlls as part of the install.

 

And yes some work is definitely needed on the needed on the 5.10 side of things – glad to know you’ll have a peep at it .. Still poking around on my prob will keep you posted

 

Having tried several options to get things up, I must say strawberry is definitely the way to go for koha 3 on win32 J

Hi,

This should probably go to the win32 forum but all the same ..

Just done a windows install of koha 3 (with strawberry perl)  get the error below when adding books


Great! To my knowledge you are the first to accomplish a fully working install of Koha 3.x on Windows.

Are you using the beta_2 release of Strawberry?

How did the install of XLT::LibXSLT go?

 

The following fatal error has occurred:

Can't call method "fields" on an undefined value at G:/koha/prog/src/C4/Biblio.pm line 1923.

Saw a similar post in the forum ( http://lists.katipo.co.nz/public/koha/2008-December/016248.html ) but no resolution .. Oh and the exact same code works perfectly on linux



Not sure what's up here. I do plan to work some more on Koha and Strawberry after the final release of Strawberry 10.x at the end of October. If the problem has not been solved by then I'll look more at it.


Kind Regards,
Chris
