I have a question about the OPAC |
| 04:27 |
|
dgl-library |
what do I need to enable to get it up and running? when I go to 192.168.2.4:8080 I get the staff client, but at 192.168.2.4 I just see a message that says "It works! |

hello everybody -- I have a question about copy numbers (i.e. multiple copies of one title) |
| 09:51 |
|
|
adnc joined #koha |
| 09:52 |
|
dgl-library |
If anyone knows... is there a way to get Koha to assign copy numbers automatically? I didn't realize that wasn't happening automatically, so the copy numbers are all blank right now. |
| 09:52 |
|
cait |
dgl-library: sorry, there is no way to do it automatically |
| 09:53 |
|
dgl-library |
cait: oh. wish I were a programmer--I'd contribute a fix to that. thanks for the info. |
| 09:53 |
|
cait |
dgl-library: perhaps you will one day |
| 09:53 |
|
dgl-library |
so when I choose Add Multiple I have to go back and re-edit each item? |
| 09:53 |
|
cait |
hm |
| 09:53 |
|
cait |
have you tried to put a 1 into the first? |
| 09:53 |
|
cait |
some values are updated when you use the add multiple function |
| 09:54 |
|
cait |
like the barcodes |
| 09:55 |
|
dgl-library |
we're gonna try that right now--as an experiment |
| 09:57 |
|
dgl-library |
btw, any idea how to add the copy number to a label? the instructions say "You may include any Koha field or MARC subfield" but I'm not sure where the codes for those Koha fields are listed. |
| 09:59 |
|
dgl-library |
there seem to be codenames for each field. |

results of the experiment: Add Multiple correctly adds consecutive barcode numbers, |
| 10:15 |

but it adds the same copy number to each copy. I would call that a bug. |

anyone available? |

|
mib_pcob0g |
i setup the koha z39.50 server by uncommenting the relevant areas, i also change the id's from publicserver to testserver, when i use another koha to do a search with ISBN/ISSN it doesnt give any results however if i use the title it will return results |
| 15:41 |
|
mib_pcob0g |
how do i setup the z39.50 to respond to isbn searches |
| 15:43 |
|
jcamins |
mib_pcob0g: unfortunately, if it's not working out of the box, fixing it is going to be non-trivial. |
| 15:44 |
|
jcamins |
It means that the publicserver Zebra configuration is not using the correct attribute for ISBN/ISSN. |
| 15:45 |
|
jcamins |
I'm doing home repair projects today, so I can't offer much help at the moment. |
| 15:45 |
|
mib_pcob0g |
where do i find that configuration |
| 15:45 |
|
jcamins |
UNIMARC or MARC21? |
| 15:45 |
|
mib_pcob0g |
marc21 |

| 15:46 |
|
jcamins |
etc/zebradb/marc_defs/marc21/biblios/record.abs. |
| 15:46 |
|
jcamins |
The problem is, you have to figure out which attribute the ISBN and ISSN *should* be indexed as. |
| 15:47 |
|
mib_pcob0g |
hmm ok, i'm going to try figure |
| 15:48 |
|
jcamins |
Attributes are configured in etc/zebradb/biblios/bib1.att. |
| 16:40 |
|
mib_pcob0g |
i cant seem to figure the correct areas for record.abs (att 7 ISBN, att 8 ISSN these from bib1.att) i do see where it references those attributes or numbers it has (# Items Indexes melm 952$0 withdrawn:n,withdrawn:w) and other similar stuffs but none seem to reference title or so |
| 16:45 |
|
jcamins |
mib_pcob0g: look around melm 245 for the title bits. |
| 16:46 |
|
jcamins |
ISBN should be 020 |
| 16:46 |
|
jcamins |
ISSN 022 (I think) |
| 16:46 |
|
jcamins |
The problem is probably attribute numbers, so it may take a bit of fiddling. |
| 16:46 |
|
mib_pcob0g |
hmm ok thx, that in the section that says koha specific... |
| 16:47 |
|
mib_pcob0g |
melm 020$a ISBN:w,Identifier-standard:w i see this line at 54 |
| 16:52 |
|
mib_pcob0g |
jcamins: would you know what that :w stands for? |
| 16:53 |
|
jcamins |
mib_pcob0g: it's a word index. |
| 16:54 |
|
jcamins |
i.e. keyword. |
| 17:04 |
|
mib_pcob0g |
i noted this for 1 title reference (melm 245$a Title-cover:w,Title-cover:p,Title-cover:s,Title:w,Title:p,Title:s) was wondering if Title-cover:w is koha field and the other are other possible fieldnames |
| 17:05 |
|
mib_pcob0g |
melm 245$a Title-cover: w,Title-cover: p,Title-cover: s,Title:w,Title p,Title: s |
| 17:06 |
|
jcamins |
mib_pcob0g: those are various indexes. |
| 17:06 |
|
jcamins |
They are associated with bib1 attributes. |
| 17:11 |
|
mib_pcob0g |
i see where it is said that its better to run zebradeamon from cli rather than as a deamon but when i remove the deamon and restart, clients dont get search results |
| 17:12 |

You shouldn't use zebra*queue* daemon. |
| 17:12 |
|

The zebra daemon is required. |

good day...real quick question |

when following the instructions for Koha on Ubuntu, can i not add user Koha and instead use my username? |
| 17:18 |

| 17:18 |
|
mib_nybd4n |
i can simply just swap it out correct? |
| 17:22 |
|
jcamins |
Yes. Everywhere that it says "do something as user koha," do it as your user. |
| 17:22 |
|
jcamins |
In production, though, it's generally a good idea to use a separate user. |

i type "/usr/share/koha/bin/koha-zebra-ctl.sh /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon" |

"etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon: file does not exist" |

Where did you get that command from? |
| 18:37 |

the directions tell me to "Setup Zebra Server to Automatically..." |
| 18:37 |
|

from the koha-community wiki |

Okay, you missed a very important part of that. |

librarygeekadam |
ok |
| 18:38 |
|
librarygeekadam |
which part |
| 18:38 |
|
wahanui |
which part is probably not right for you |
| 18:38 |
|
jcamins |
At the very beginning, you need "sudo ln -s" |
| 18:38 |
|
jcamins |
(followed by a space, followed by the two file names) |
| 18:38 |
|
librarygeekadam |
for the first command? |
| 18:38 |
|
librarygeekadam |
i am using sudo su |
| 18:38 |
|
jcamins |
In that case, you don't need sudo. |
| 18:38 |
|
jcamins |
Just ln -s |
| 18:39 |
|
librarygeekadam |
let me check... |
| 18:39 |
|
jcamins |
I am only responding to what you say... I'm not looking at the instructions. |
| 18:39 |
|
librarygeekadam |
i entered it correcty because I coppied and past |
| 18:40 |
|
librarygeekadam |
the first command "ln -s /usr/share/koha/bin/koha-zebra-ctl.sh /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon" |
| 18:40 |
|
librarygeekadam |
works fine |
| 18:40 |
|
jcamins |
Okay. |
| 18:40 |
|
librarygeekadam |
it tells me the file exists |
| 18:40 |
|
librarygeekadam |
the second command "update-rc.d koha-zebra-daemon defaults" |
| 18:40 |
|
librarygeekadam |
tells me that the file does not exist |
| 18:40 |
|
librarygeekadam |
and its the same file that it told me existed in the previous command |
| 18:41 |
|
jcamins |
I'm not sure, sorry. |
| 18:41 |
|
librarygeekadam |
thats ok |
| 18:41 |
|
librarygeekadam |
just trying to figure out if its a problem or not |
| 18:41 |
|
jcamins |
It may mean that you have to manually start the Zebra server when you restart the server. |
| 18:41 |
|
librarygeekadam |
i have ignored this problem before on install and the install went fine |
| 18:41 |
|
jcamins |
It also might not. |
| 18:41 |
|
jcamins |
I didn't do that command, and Zebra starts up for me automatically. |
| 18:41 |
|
librarygeekadam |
just trying to figure out all the details |
| 18:41 |
|
librarygeekadam |
ok |
| 18:42 |
|
librarygeekadam |
i'll continue on and chalk it up to a bug or something |
| 18:42 |

Hi, I've recently installed the Koha Live DVD from Vimal Kumar V based on Ubuntu 10..04 LTS and it works great. Will there be another Live CD/DVD based on the next upcoming LTS [Ubuntu 12.04] ? |
| 22:59 |
|
jcamins |
jurgens: that's up to Vimal Kumar. |
| 22:59 |
|

Else, would it be possible to just upgrade the current 10.04 to 12.04 and be confident that koha will still work? |
| 23:00 |
|
jurgens |
I'm relatively new to this, so I apologize for what seems a silly question |
| 23:00 |
|

With the live cd, I have no idea. |

In general, yes, you can upgrade the operating system. |

Thanks, thought so. If it doesn't work I can always reinstall and reload the backups! |
