2013-02-20 Thread Kurt Bodling
David, I can't help you with the install (last time I did an Ubuntu install was on LTS 10.04 about 2 years ago) ... but maybe if you share more specifics about what isn't working, what error message(s) you get, or what specific step seems to where the install grinds to a halt ... maybe then

Re: [Koha] Full call number not updated automatically in the items of a marc record after editing that marc record's item number

2011-12-01 Thread Kurt Bodling
I've always had to update changed call numbers on each item record, one by one. So I don't believe Koha does updating automatically. (Personally, I'm happy with Koha working that way.) NEW items will have the auto-generated new number, though. Kurt -Original Message- From:

Follow up to my own earlier email: I've been playing around on one of the demo sites that lets us preview Koha 3.06.00.000 (specifically the one at bywatersolutions.com). My earlier email had 4 problems with Koha's authorities module. Two of those problems appear to be FIXED in Koha 3.06!

2011-09-01 Thread Kurt Bodling
Hello, I've cataloged electronic databases and assigned them a collection code ERESOURCES, and an item type ERESOURCES. No barcodes, of course, because they can't be checked out. (And where would I adhere the barcode anyway?) As far as I can tell there are no problems resulting from having
