03:49 Mehwish Hello All..
03:50 Mehwish I have an error 404 in my Koha..
03:50 Mehwish can anyone help me?
03:53 Mehwish I cannot add multiple copies of a book at different library branches..
03:53 Mehwish what may be the cause?
03:53 robin Mehwish: have you looked in your apache logs?
03:54 Mehwish Sorry I am new to linux and koha. I forgot where may be the apache log..
03:55 Mehwish can u give some hint?
03:57 robin it depends on how it's set up. But perhaps start by providing more detail about what's happening, such as what URLs and error messages you're seeing.
03:57 robin If it's really a 404, then it sounds like an apache configuration issue.
03:57 Mehwish OK visit our site at http://koha.isra.edu.pk/
03:57 robin but that would seem odd.
03:57 Mehwish then search for java
03:57 Mehwish then click on first result..
03:58 Mehwish you will see error message.
03:58 robin ah
03:58 robin yep
03:58 robin perhaps try rebuilding your zebra indexes
03:58 Mehwish second result is ok
03:58 robin I've seen that happen when the zebra information is stale.
03:58 Mehwish hmm.. I have configured the system with great efforts..
03:59 Mehwish but we selected no zebra during web installation.
03:59 Mehwish i remember.
03:59 Mehwish shall I need to set Zebra indexes any how?
03:59 robin Oh, not using zebra is not recommended except for very small collections (and even then, I'd recommend using it.)
04:00 robin rephrase: using zebra is strongly recommended.
04:00 Mehwish now can I configure Zebra now?
04:00 Mehwish without any data loss?
04:00 robin yes
04:01 robin it's a matter of setting it up, loading the data into it, and then telling koha to use it
04:01 Mehwish hmm.. but how can I get back to that step where I selected no zebra?
04:02 Amit joined #koha
04:02 robin It is the NoZebra system preference that controls this.
04:02 Amit heya chris
04:02 Amit hi robin
04:02 robin Hi
04:07 Mehwish OK I am trying to build zebra indexes..
04:07 Mehwish Thanks Robin.
04:08 robin Hope it helps!

05:26 Soomro I need the complete list of features of KOHA in breif . could any one help me?
05:29 imp Soomro: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K[…]oftware)#Features ?
05:31 Soomro impo: there are no features at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K[…]oftware)#Features ?
05:31 imp Koha has most of the features that would be expected in an ILS, including:
05:31 imp * Simple, clear interface for librarians and members (patrons) ....
05:32 darling left #koha
05:32 Soomro there are all these or some others r also?
05:33 imp don't know - you can also take a look at http://koha-community.org/docu[…]ation/3-2-manual/
05:34 Soomro imp: this is manual...this is not features
05:34 anitsirk joined #koha
05:36 imp Soomro: 1.3.1. Patron Categories -> /translates/ to a feature: you can have different categories for patrons
05:38 Soomro thnanks
05:39 imp got the schema?
05:44 Soomro imp: yes

14:04 mib_78l8o Hi
14:06 mib_78l8o When I load the catalog using the Z39.50 search, duplicate record appears. ?

14:13 CGI117 joined #koha
14:13 CGI117 hi
14:13 paul_p joined #koha
14:16 CGI117 hi to everybody, i have one queston....is it normal to duplicate the catalogue when i put at least one item in that?
14:16 CGI117 i mean one stays empty..
14:19 jcamins_a CGI117: what are you asking?
14:19 jcamins_a is now known as jcamins
14:23 CGI117 the thing is when I import a book using z39.50 it creates one catalogue, but when i start to increment the items koha creates another registry t put my items
14:24 CGI117 one registry remains empty for example and the new one with 5 items inside that
14:24 CGI117 of the same book
14:25 jcamins What version of Koha are you using?
14:25 CGI117 3.00.06
14:25 jcamins Does this problem show up in the OPAC, or just the staff client?
14:26 CGI117 just the stuff client
14:26 jcamins That's what I thought. I think what you're seeing is the record in the Resevoir and the record in the catalog.
14:27 jcamins The resevoir contains a copy of every record you download via Z39.50.
14:27 CGI117 ok
14:28 CGI117 and there is something wrong with that?
14:28 jcamins You don't need to worry about the contents of the Resevoir (I think I'm spelling it wrong, and I apologize for that).
14:28 jcamins Nope.
14:30 jcamins As long as things are showing up properly in the OPAC, you can ignore records in the Reservoir. There's a way to empty the Reservoir, but I don't remember exactly where.
14:30 CGI117 sorry, now i'm doing a search in the OPAC and i see both records
14:31 jcamins Hm.
14:31 jcamins Okay, that's a problem then.
14:31 jcamins Did you try the instructions in the FAQ: http://koha-community.org/docu[…]on/faq/searching/
14:31 CGI117 ok i will take a look
14:32 CGI117 thanks!

14:58 CGI117 Now I'm sure whats wrong, Koha make two records of the book just when i click save in the add MARC registry (I did the zebraidx -c /path/to/zebra-biblios.cfg drop biblios & commit , but nothings seems to work..)
15:00 jcamins Hm.
15:01 jcamins Did you try deleting the extra one?
15:01 jcamins It's possible that it just double-clicked on save, or something. I've done that a few times.
15:02 CGI117 at first i think that, but i did several times the adding procedure
15:03 jcamins Hm.

16:11 wajasu if i am running in a koha git dev install, then do git pull, do i have to do a make/makefile command to see changes? or change my koha-dev to continue using the app?
16:12 jcamins wajasu: I don't think so. I think you just have to run the web installer.
16:12 wajasu ok.

16:36 wajasu i created an empty koha database, and restored a mysql backup.  i upgraded to the latest git pull  from .111 to .145).  my librarian went to look for his printer label batches he had worked on , but none exist.  Wouldn't those be in the database?

17:21 mazenoz hello world
17:22 mazenoz anyone, except me, successfully installed koha 3 on windows :D
17:22 mazenoz ?
17:22 jcamins chris_n would be the one to talk to, but I don't think he's gotten it working yet.
17:23 jcamins Mostly the recommendation is to use VirtualBox running Linux.
17:23 mazenoz I had it working
17:24 mazenoz using the latest version of Strawberry perl  (May '10)
17:25 mazenoz and playing with some sources in koha's directory
17:25 jcamins Wow! You should e-mail the list with instructions.
17:25 mazenoz the thing is, I'm new too all this
17:26 mazenoz which list should I be enrolling?
17:26 jcamins Probably koha-devel would be best.
17:26 mazenoz @?
17:26 munin mazenoz: Error: "?" is not a valid command.
17:26 jcamins By the way, you know that the website is http://koha-community.org/ right?
17:26 jcamins (I'm looking now for the mailing list page)
17:26 mazenoz yup
17:27 jcamins http://koha-community.org/supp[…]ha-mailing-lists/
17:27 jcamins Actually, there's a Win32 list.
17:27 mazenoz got it http://lists.koha-community.or[…]stinfo/koha-win32
17:29 mazenoz joining and transferring knowledge :)
17:30 jcamins Wonderful!
17:30 jcamins That's really quite impressive, that you managed to get Koha running under Windows.
17:34 wajasu forget what i said earlier about not seeing my batches.  it was because my library branch was not set.
