[Koha-devel] Who is Live DVD manager of version 3.12.x?

2013-08-26 Thread Vimal Kumar V.
Dear Friends,
I don't know why Release Maintainer of Koha 3.12.x always forgot to give
the exact name of Live DVD manager in release notes!!!
http://koha-community.org/koha-3-12-4-released/

I once again request to Release Manager to read once more roles for 3.12
version.
http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Roles_for_3.12

I would like to get the reputation as Live DVD Manager.
Like any other members in developers community, I had burned lot of my time
to create Koha Live DVD for 3.12 version.

[Koha-devel] How to clean transaction table?

2013-08-13 Thread Vimal Kumar V.
Dear Friends,

Today our Koha officially started in production mode.

Trial transaction (checkout, checkin, fines etc) details are still in Koha.

We wish to clean all transaction details from Koha and start the
transactions fresh from today.
If old transactions persist in Koha, auditors create problems at the year
end.

How can we clean the transaction table and get ready for a fresh startup?

2013-05-21 Thread Vimal Kumar V.
Dear Friends,

The creating Koha 3.12 Live DVD is in progress.
Still doubt about where we have to upload the Live DVD?

I prefer sourceforge.net.
If so,  I can create a new project with the name "koha-community".

Your opinion please.

[Koha-devel] My talk on Live DVD blue print

2013-03-02 Thread Vimal Kumar V.
Dear Friends,

I am in a sad situation.
When I try to click on edit button of Koha wiki page, it ask to download a
index.php file.
So, I could not add the suggestion in Talk page. Please consider my
suggestions and add in talk page.

1. Inclusion of too many materials (e.g. Video tutorials) make the DVD big.
Inclusion of manual is OK. It will take too much time for download.

2. Addition of Offline client is a nice suggestion. Need to add any other
useful small tools (e.g. glabel) ?

3. Chris mentioned about GUI for backup from Koha staff client. This
feature available in Koha 3.12 version?

4. We can create a new framework for customized fields. Upgrade to new
version shatter this framework?

5. In my opinion Remastersys is good for creating a clone of the system.
Simplicity is the main feature.
Users can make ISO of the system as a backup using remastersys.
 Its backup mechanism can retain user settings and the exact environment of
the master PC.

Re: [Koha-devel] How to change fine calculation timing: another appeal

2012-12-05 Thread Vimal Kumar V.
Dear Friends,

I tried to connect cronjob with anacron.

I added the following lines in anacron file.

Open the file

gedit /etc/anacrontab

And add the following lines in it and save.

1   10  cron.daily koha-foreach /etc/cron.daily


This line will execute Koha related crontab daily after 10 minutes when
system start.
I found that fine calculated and display in circulation module.
Try yourself and give your feed back.

Thank you Robin Sheat for inform us about the use of anacron for Koha
cronjobs.

[Koha-devel] How to change fine calculation timing: another appeal

2012-11-28 Thread Vimal Kumar V.
Dear Friends,

In my experience Koha installation from Ubuntu packages is very convenient
and easy to keep update with forthcoming versions.
Everything works fine with latest version of Koha.

But one problem still haunting me, change of default time fixed to run
fines.pl cron.
Many users like to change the fine calculation  to another convenient time
(e.g. 10 AM).
Dear developers, kindly guide me how to change the fine calculation time.

Regards

[Koha-devel] Character normalization of Koha

2012-11-07 Thread Vimal Kumar V.
Dear Friends,

I have doubt,

If we install Koha using Ubuntu packages from Koha repo, what is the
default character normalization?

chr or icu?

How can we check the charecter normalisation of a koha installation?

How can we change the charecter normalisation after installation?

[Koha-devel] Koha Live CD for testing

2012-10-27 Thread Vimal Kumar V.
Dear Friends,

I just uploaded Koha Live CD for the review by community.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/kohalivecd-lite/

Live CD build on Madbox Linux, http://madbox.tuxfamily.org/.
<http://madbox.tuxfamily.org/>
Madbox is based on Ubuntu 12.04 and OpenBox desktop, very light weight and
fast.
Total size of Koha Live CD is 690 MB.
I think this size is convenient for downloading.
I have added a Readme file which mentioned passwords and important
information regarding the Live CD.

I added an automatic backup script. It will take hourly back up of Koha DB.

I also build another Koha Live DVD based on Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop based on
gnome-shell desktop.
Its size is about 900 MB. I have not uploaded the DVD yet.
