Hi Johan,

with the default configuration Koha won't search for records with non-latin characters correctly, but this can be fixed - you will have to switch to ICU for indexing. Instructions can be found on the wiki:

https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/ICU_chains_configuration

If it doesn't work at all, even for your German and English records, there might be another problem. Did you specify UNIMARC when creating the instance (defaults to MARC21)? Or only in the web installer? If the first was missed, your indexing configuration won't match your data which could also explain problems.

Hope this helps,

Katrin

Hello.

Thank you for adding me to this mailing list.

I have a question.

I am a sysadmin in St Petersburg, Russia and we are in the process of
moving to Koha.  So I am a newbie :)

I chosed the unimarc option as our database is in rusmarc.  We have our
database in .mrc format,  it is about 27 000 books in cyrilic, english and
german.

I was able to setup koha import that database but the search function does
not work.

I did a lot of googling, i tried kooha 16.05, 16.11, 17.05 on Debain 8 and
9 but without avail...

Any help will be truly appreciated! as i am truly stuck.
