im trying to create a koha instance configured for a remote mariadb server

https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian#Create_a_Koha_instance

> remove /etc/mysql/koha-common.cnf
> create a new file in its place containing the connection
information for the server, in the form of a my.cnf file.

what does that mean? the only my.cnf file that I can find on the system is /etc/mysql/my.cnf and that doesnt look right

$ koha-create --dbhost 172.23.0.3 --database kohadb --request-db koha-demo
$ vim koha-demo-db-request.txt
$ koha-create --dbhost 172.23.0.3 --database kohadb --populate-db koha-demo
Koha instance is empty, no staff user created.

after that I still see the autogenerated password in /etc/koha/sites/koha-demo/koha-conf.xml and the mariadb database is empty

after reading the koha-create source i have a feeling this --request-db/--populate-db stuff cant possibly work. --populate-db is trying to get the db passwort using getinstancemysqluser() but that function is a wrapper around xmlstarlet and i was just told by `koha-create --request-db` to write the new db password into this txt file.

I will update the wiki after I figured this out

cheers
david

Hi

When I'm trying to preview or release the current Koha newsletter I'm
getting the following message:

There has been a critical error on this website.

I'm also getting this message when I try to access older newsletters,
for example

* https://koha-community.org/koha-community-newsletter-april-2022/
* https://koha-community.org/koha-community-newsletter-august-2022/

Can someone with the necessary rights and knowledge please remove this
problem?

Best wishes: Michael

PS. Unfortunately the Wordpress template for the Koha Community website has
considerably changed since the last newsletter (and not in a way that I
would prefer). This is not only affecting all previous newsletters since
2010 but also previous release notes etc.
