[Koha] Difference between 3.22 and 16.11

[Walsh, Daniel (British Council)]

Dear Colleagues,

We are currently upgrading KOHA across our libraries.  Other than a change in 
naming convention, are there any technical differences between 3.22 and 16.11?

Thanks Chris, I have already sent an email to System Librarian of INSEAD. I
thought may be their developer is one of our koha forum member.

Hi Dr Bhavsar

You should ask Insead how they set that up, there is no way for us to know how 
they are doing full text searching.

To me it doesn't look like they are, they just have a pdf attached. But they 
will be able to tell you

Re: [Koha] cron issue with Koha on Ubuntu

That is surprising. If anacron isn't present, the normal cron takes over via
run-parts, as for example:

> 25 6* * *roottest -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts 
> --report /etc/cron.daily )

In other words, it should be possible to run your cron jobs without anacron.
There must be something else missing.  Maybe the cron daemon hasn't been
started; you can see if it is running using:

  ps auxfw | egrep cron

Or maybe it hasn't been installed; this can be checked using:

  dpkg -S /usr/sbin/cron

or

  aptitude search "~i cron"

Re: [Koha] cron issue with Koha on Ubuntu

[Steve Nickerson]

The server on all the time, but the problem was that /usr/sbin/anacron didn't 
exist so the jobs were never kicking off because of the "test -x 
/usr/sbin/anacron" was of course not finding anacron.

Looking at this some more, could it be that your server isn't running 
continuously?

The reason I ask is that the file /etc/crontab on Debian 8 looks like this:

17 ** * *   rootcd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly
25 6* * *   roottest -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts 
--report /etc/cron.daily )
47 6* * 7   roottest -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts 
--report /etc/cron.weekly )
52 61 * *   roottest -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts 
--report /etc/cron.monthly )

I believe this means that if your machine isn't running at these times, and 
anacron isn't available, the cron jobs won't run.  In particular, it appears 
that the daily, weekly, and monthly jobs are run between 6:25 and 6:52 AM.

Anacron is useful for personal machines that don't run continuously, but it 
doesn't play well with Koha, in my experience.

What exactly did you enter in menu "Koha administration > Z39.50/SRU

Have you been able to connect to the entered Z39.50 server using YAZ

[Koha] Can Koha be configured for the following variable circulation rules?

[Raymund Delahunty]

Environment:
Six libraries at constituent colleges each with identical circulation rules. 
Maximum loans apply by user category (books and DVDs mainly).
Maximum loans by user category apply university wide (so 15 items per 
undergraduate) and using  system preference circcontrol as "the library the 
member is from" this works fine. Users are free to borrow from multiple 
libraries, up to the overall maximum loans count of 15.
Our "Learning Zone" is a separate library in Koha- it loans only IT kit and is 
open 24 hours a day, often with only security staff (no library staff). New 
self-issue laptop loan units have been installed.

Requirement:
Configure Koha Circulation to allow users to borrow a laptop and other kit from 
the learning Zone, via self service as an ADDITIONAL entitlement, so users 
whose account is maxed out with books and audio equipment can still borrow a 
laptop via self-service kit.

Progress to date:
Not a lot. I have been unable to get this working, despite extensive testing. 
Initially I tried separate library circulation rules for Learning Zone and had 
the other 6 libraries as All Libraries, and my changes to circcontrol to 
"library the user is logged into" saw the laptops borrowable, but the 15 items 
became 15 per library, increasing the max-loans from 15 to 90 (6 times the 15 
per college).That didn't make me too popular- but it did take some months for 
the problem to be noticed. I have re-imposed the circcontrol setting to "the 
library the member is from" to ensure sensible loans maxima, but now maxed out 
users can't borrow a laptop. There are no users registered at the Learning Zone 
as all users have a "home college" which is the library they are registered at.

With the changes to circcontrol undone in our LIVE system I can continue to 
test out ideas in our TEST one before rolling them out to the live environment. 
In October my testing on **one** library plus the Learning Zone in TEST showed 
the desired functionality was perfect so I rolled it out to LIVE. I did not 
test multiple libraries and I should have. Any suggestions as to how I can set 
Koha up to offer what I have been asked to provide would be most appreciated.

The reason I ask is that the file /etc/crontab on Debian 8 looks like this:

17 ** * *   rootcd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly
25 6* * *   roottest -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts 
--report /etc/cron.daily )
47 6* * 7   roottest -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts 
--report /etc/cron.weekly )
52 61 * *   roottest -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts 
--report /etc/cron.monthly )

I believe this means that if your machine isn't running at these
times, and anacron isn't available, the cron jobs won't run.  In
particular, it appears that the daily, weekly, and monthly jobs are
run between 6:25 and 6:52 AM.

Anacron is useful for personal machines that don't run continuously,
but it doesn't play well with Koha, in my experience.

I'm not sure I understand why anacron was required.  On both of the
installations I'm using, anacron was either not installed (Debian 8 on
Linode) or I had to disable it (Debian 8 in a VM on my laptop).
Anacron caused problems for me (and others) with Zebra being killed
off every morning.
