Yes, I'm using version 3 on a Debian Testing:
Koha    3.00.00.107
Koha DB         3.0000107
Server version: Apache/2.2.9 (Debian)
mysql  Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.51a, for debian-linux-gnu (i486) using readline 5.2
perl, v5.10.0
Linux 2.6.26-1-686

Before using a cronjob I want to execute first fines.pl or fines2.pl
to know what it does, and after that do the cronjob to execute at
night.

I'm having an error when executing those scripts:
ruben at QO:/usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs$ ./fines.pl
Can't locate C4/Context.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl
/usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5
/usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10
/usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at ./fines.pl line 36.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./fines.pl line 36.

I suppose it's because it doesn't know where C4 is, but I don't know
how to tell the script. I have set those variables:
PERL5LIB=/usr/share/koha
KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/koha-conf.xml

What's the differences between fines.pl, fines2.pl and fines-ll.pl.
What is supposed it must be used?

Thanks!
