Re: [Koha] Circulation Errors after Upgrade
I tried running that but it didn't look like I did anything. If I go into a record for an item it shows available and in our library but when I search through the catalog under Location it shows Availability: none to the user and No items under the Location column for a librarian. I'm new to KOHA and libraries so any tips/help you can provide would help us make sure it works as it should. Is there a schedule task that I need to have run each day/hour/etc to make sure it is all indexed properly?

[Koha] Circulation Errors after Upgrade
Good afternoon, I recently installed a test server (a few months ago) for our church to migrate from Koha 3.01 to 3.6 (now at 3.8.03). As a part of the testing of the new server, our librarians finally took a look at the system and found some errors and I really have no clue where to start when it comes to troubleshooting them. 1. Trying to check-out, check-in or renewing items fails. The errors returned is Can't call method subfield on an undefined value at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Biblio.pm line 2965. 2. When searching our catalog, the list of results shows No Holds Allowed but on our current system holds are allowed. Librarians can place items on hold once they click into the item. 3. The list of search results also shows that there are No items under Location when we actually have many items. So far none of our items show anything being available. Can someone provide some tips or places to start when figuring out what is causing these issues?

I suspect all the problems you report may stem from missing the remove_items_from_biblioitems.pl script. Did you run it?

Re: [Koha] Circulation Errors after Upgrade
I ran all of the upgrade scripts to get from 3.01. to 3.6. Based on the file, it looks like it should have run as a part of that process. When I try to run it to view the help it gives me a compilation error. Would it have logged somewhere if this failed as a part of the upgrade?

Whats the error? I bet its missing the path to the C4 modules Would it have logged somewhere if this failed as a part of the upgrade? No. It isnt run as part of the upgrade, because it only needs to be run in special circumstances, when coming from a pre 3.4.x version to a 3.6.x, and take a long time potentially. From the INSTALL file in the UPGRADE section Koha 3.4.x or later no longer stores items in biblio records.

Re: [Koha] Circulation Errors after Upgrade
Hi Chris, When I imported our database into the 3.6.4 system at the time I ran the following: koha-upgrade-schema instancename then koha-uprade-to-3.4 instancename When I ran the 2nd command, the koha-upgrade-to-3.4 command kept returning a bunch of Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//) at /usr/share/koha/lib/C4/Biblio.pm line 2953 . I asked and was told I could safely ignore those errors from the upgrade command. I actually install KOHA using the apt-get packages on Debian. I've used that to keep it up to date and apply patches as they come out. Do I need to try to re-run the upgrade to 3.4 or check any specific logs?

What you can do is in your report writer, write a report that does SELECT marcxml FROM biblioitems limit 5 That will get you 5 records, you can look at your marcxml and if it has 952 fields in it, the fields were not removed.

Thanks Chris! Glad to know I'm doing this the best/recommended way. i'm refreshing my linux skills and also having to learn about library systems and it takes me a bit.
