Hi Edward, I thought this problem was fixed already, but it looks like it's coming back :-) I wonder if it's bug 491... It would help us diagnose the problem better if we could see the error logs, which would give the location in the perl scripts/modules of the problem. The log to check in this case is koha-error_log. The log files should be in /usr/local/koha/log but if you can't find them there you can run a search: find / -name koha-error_log -print Inside the log file the entries are dated so you should have no trouble finding the error that cooresponds to your problem.

Hello all,

I downloaded and installed Koha 2.0.0RC1 today. This is the first time I have tried Koha. I believe it is working correctly, however the only thing I did was to try to add two members. I aheven't even tried to add a an item. The members added fine, however when I tried to update the two members, I received an error. The error says:

The following fields have a forbidden value. Please push the back button and try again : Invalid_cardnumber

I did not change the member number when I created the two users. I took the default number. Is this a bug or did I do something incorrectly? I noticed on the test drive version that Koha also complained about the card number when I tried to edit the patron I created.

I'm not sure if it makes a difference, but I am running Koha on Mandrake 9.2 using Apache 2.

Thank you,
