Summary: 2.2.8 - can't modify MinPasswordLength syspref
Product: Koha
Version: branch 2.2
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: Database
AssignedTo: chris at katipo.co.nz

There's a problem in 2.2.8 that will prevent changing the MinPasswordLength in
system preferences. In /scripts/updater/updatedatabase the following section
makes the modifications to the database:
{
uniquefieldrequired => 'variable',
variable => 'MinPasswordLength',
value => '5',
forceupdate => {
'explanation' => 1,
'type' => 1
},
explanation => "Minimum length for patron passwords",
type => 'YesNo',
value =>5,
},
The bug is caused by the type being set to YesNo. If you try to change the
value of this preference you'll get a 500 Internal Server Error and the
following in the error log:
[Sun Apr 29 11:11:38 2007] [error] [client 172.16.1.10] Premature end of
script headers: /var/www/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/admin/systempreferences.pl
The given value does not seem to be interpretable as a Boolean value at
/var/www/koha/intranet/modules/C4/Boolean.pm line 104.
I fixed it by changing and rerunning the update script.
1) In the section of /scripts/updater/updatedatabase quoted above change the
line:
type => 'YesNo',
TO
type => 'Integer',
2) Set environment variables
export KOHA_CONF=/path/to/koha.conf
export PERL5LIB=/path/to/koha/intranet/modules
3) Run the update script
perl updatedatabase
