Dear koha developers,

I hope you do not hate me for reporting so many bugs... :)

During the koha installation I chose to install the sample of Library/Branches. Now I want to delete them, using the webpage http://localhost:8080/cgi-bin/koha/admin/branches.pl, of course... I have successfully deleted all of them except of libraries of Franklin, Midway, Pleasant Valley and Springfield. When I select to delete these libraries, koha shows me the message "Library deleted" in the same webpage, but the library persists.

/var/log/koha/koha-error_log: [...] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] [...] branches.pl: DBD::mysql::st execute failed: Cannot delete or update a parent row: a foreign key constraint fails (`koha3rocks/borrowers`, CONSTRAINT `borrowers_ibfk_2` FOREIGN KEY (`branchcode`) REFERENCES `branches` (`branchcode`)) at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Branch.pm line 473., referer: http://localhost:8080/cgi-bin/koha/admin/branches.pl?branchcode=MPL&branchname=Midway&op=delete

My best wishes, and keep up the magnificent work,

Constantine Tsardounis

Hi Constantine, There's another thread about this which you'll find if you have a bit of a rummage on one of the archives of the koha lists. Essentially, it won't let you delete the library, because the library still has patrons (and possibly other things which are slipping my mind at the momment). It's just being sensibly cautions. -ramon/custard _______________________________________________ Koha-bugs mailing list Koha-bugs@lists.koha.org http://lists.koha.org/mailman/listinfo/koha-bugs
