21 June 2005 The question "[Koha-devel] MARC import failing when no ISBN is present in 2.2.2b" has gone unanswered. I suspect it was confused as related to the answered "[Koha-devel] Z39.50 daemon launcher incompatible with FreeBSD" posted at about the same time. These are independent questions. The MARC import failure question is quoted below. It asks if there is a way to correct or work around the problem.

I cannot import MARC recorrds for books without ISBNs using the current stable release, 2.2.2b. Most of the books that ever were have no ISBNs and never will.
Attempting to import a MARC communications format one record file without ISBNs fails returning the following message whether or not overwrite duplicates is selected in the import form.
"MARC acquisition system Import into the reservoir
Import results :
* 0 imported records * 1 not imported because already in catalog * 0 not imported because already in the reservoir * 0 not imported because they seem not to be in MARC format (or ISBN/ISSN missing) ! * 1 records parsed"
The same function works correctly using the LibLime Koha 2.2.1 demonstration version for importing the identical file.
No related messages appear in the error log.
How can I correct and/or work around this problem?
