Re: [Koha] Software error when trying to issue books to some patrons
Tom Obrien tobri...@gmail.com
I am using koha 3.8.2 on Debian. When i try typing a name of some
patrons i get a the error
below. kindly help me understand the error and how i can resolve it.
Thanks in advance.
Software error:
The 'month' parameter (0) to DateTime::new did not pass the 'an
integer between 1 and 12' callback
at /usr/lib/perl5/DateTime.pm line 194.
Well, that seems pretty clear, so let's look at this for what may
have caused it:
DateTime::new(undef, 'hour', 00, 'minute', 00, 'month', 0, 'second',
0, ...) called at
/usr/local/share/perl/5.10.1/DateTime/Format/DateParse.pm line 58
DateTime::Format::DateParse::parse_datetime('DateTime::Format::DateParse',
'-00-00 00:00:00', 'Africa/Nairobi') called at
/usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Members.pm line 1044
The call on /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Members.pm line 1044 is
$_-{date_due} =
DateTime::Format::DateParse-parse_datetime($_-{date_due},
$tz-name());
so, for some reason, a patron has been issued a book with a due date
of -00-00 00:00:00 - that should not happen and I've not seen a
Koha do that recently, so we're probably going to need to fix it in
the database. The next bit hints at how we might do that:
C4::Members::GetPendingIssues(3594) called at
/usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/circ/circulation.pl line 479
So it's borrowernumber 3594. Go into mysql, SELECT FROM issues WHERE
borrowernumber = 3594 AND issues.date_due = '-00-00 00:00:00' and
then use UPDATE to set a real due date/time. A full zebra reindex
may be a good idea after that, too.
It may be worth leaving out borrowernumber = 3594 AND, to discover
if other issues have the same problem.
Hope that helps,

[Koha] 505 Enhanced Contents Note
Hello, My library recently made the switch to Koha, and I am thus still getting used to it. One major trouble I am having is with the 505 field if I want to include an enhanced (as opposed to simply formatted) contents note to allow patrons to access chapters of edited volumes by title/author searches rather than just keywords. I am used to formatting them as a chain of $t /$r within a single field, but since Koha has separate form fields for each subfield, I feel a little out to sea on this one. Every variation I try makes the display unusable and doesn't visually connect the $t subfield to the appropriate $r subfield in the OPAC. Do I need to repeat the entire 505 tag for each individual entry? I saw in the list archive that there is a bug-fix related to the 505 field, will this fix the problem, or is there some aspect of formatting that I am missing? Any help would be very appreciated.
