Re: [Koha] Staff login problems after upgrading from Koha 3.18 to 19.11

2020-05-17 Thread Quỳnh Vũ Đỗ
Hi
I managed to solve all the problems.
After studying the outputs of running in a terminal koha-upgrade schema and
editing accordingly the dump sql file of the library, the upgrade from 3.18
to 19.11. was successful.

I solved the OPAC search results returning nothing by running in a terminal
"koha-rebuild-zebra -v -f library" as found in documentation found on the
internet. After that everything looks "normal". The people of our library
still have to tell me everything's right. Works now has to be done on the
OPAC customization.

Again, thanks for all the useful information I gained from this list and
its members.

Hi,

misc/batchRebuildBiblioTables.pl has to be run from command line, there
is no option to make this change from the GUI.

The database user and the superlibrarian accounts are separate things.
If you don't remember the password for the superlibrarian, you can
create another with a different userid/cardnumber and use that to get
back into the system.

Then you can also use it to reset the password on your old
superlibrarian account or to delete it.

Hope that helps,

Katrin

Hi Jason
  I did it as you instructed to note all the information output to the
terminal.
I was able to fix the main errors (two actually) and at the second run, all
went rather smoothly and I could display the login window.
Still some issues to be fixed through library maintenance with some perl
scripts, which I believe might be the source of the OPAC still not
returning search results on the catalog.
For example I had messages like this one:
Upgrade to 19.06.00.018 done (Bug 11529: Add medium, subtitle and part
information to biblio table)
NOTE: misc/batchRebuildBiblioTables.pl should be run to populate the fields
introduced in bug 11529. It may take some time for larger databases.

I understand that either I should be able to log in as staff administrator
to perform that task OR get into a koha shell to run that script. Is that
correct?

I am now trying to find how to reset the superlibrarian password to be able
to log in to perform that maintenance.

Re: [Koha] Staff login problems after upgrading from Koha 3.18 to 19.11

2020-05-17 Thread Quỳnh Vũ Đỗ
Hello Katrin

Thanks for the info.

Indeed I was able to solve the staff login problem because in the borrowers
table there was a duplicate in the field 'userid' which should not have
been. I edited the duplicate userid (same student but with a different
student card number). There were also problems with the old field 'privacy'
as 128 rows had a value of '2' instead of either '0' or '1'. I did an
update sql query to put all those '2' values to '1' and after that
upgrading was OK.

Instead of using the web interface to do the database upgrade, I followed
the advice of (sorry, I forgot the name) of running the upgrade in a
terminal (koha-upgrade-schema library) which pointed at the two problems
met above.

The problem of searching the OPAC (an other post I made) after the upgrade
was solved by running in a terminal 'koha-rebuild-zebra -v -f library),
which is something that should be done after each upgrade from an older
database to a newer version of Koha.

Best regards
Quynh
