| 15:58 | lentzs | hello |
| 15:58 | wahanui | hi, lentzs |
| 15:59 | lentzs | I am interstd in usign Koha for a school envermint. What is the difference from Koha and LibLime Koha? |
| 16:05 | hello | |
| 16:08 | jcamins_away | lentzs: Koha is open source. |
| 16:08 | LibLime Koha is a proprietary fork that no one other than LibLime supports. | |
| 16:12 | Also, you should know that the channel is very quiet over the weekend. | |
| 17:02 | lentzs | thanks |
| 17:03 | jcamins_away | Also, just in case you were looking at the wrong website, the current version of Koha is 3.8.6, and Koha 3.10.0 is going to be released soon. |
| 17:05 | lentzs | So this is the main site. not kohl.org |
| 17:05 | koha.org | |
| 17:05 | wahanui | koha.org is old, out of date, and under the control of a hostile company |
| 17:05 | lentzs | that it wrong. |
| 17:07 | jcamins_away | Right. |
| 17:07 | Take a look at koha-community.org. | |
| 17:08 | lentzs | That is where I have been looking. |
| 17:09 | Koka look easer to use then evergreen. | |
| 17:09 | jcamins_away | http://koha-community.org/home/#more-1 <-- this clarifies which website. |
| 17:09 | * jcamins_away | sure finds it that way! |
| 17:11 | lentzs | I am looking in migrating a school that is using Follett circulation. Has anyone done any migration from Follett? |
| 17:11 | jcamins_away | Many people have. |
| 17:12 | jcamins | I have not, but understand it's quite doable. |
| 17:15 | lentzs | Also witch distros is recommended. I am currently setting up a system with ubuntu 12.04. |
| 17:16 | jcamins | Debian stable or an Ubuntu Precise. |
| 17:16 | I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 for development. | |
| 17:17 | matts_away joined #koha | |
| 17:18 | lentzs | I like staying with the current LTS. |
| 17:22 | When will 3.10.0 be released? | |
| 17:22 | jcamins | 19 days. |
| 17:23 | Well- possibly 20 or 21, depending on the day of the week. | |
| 17:24 | lentzs | How different will 3.10.0 be from 3.8.6? |
| 17:25 | jcamins | It will have a bunch of new features. |
| 17:25 | But it will also be a .0 release, which means it may also have a bunch of new bugs. | |
| 17:37 | * jcamins | probably won't even use 3.12.0 when it is released, though, and I'll be it's release manager. |
| 17:41 | lentzs | INSTALL refurrs to the wiki for setting up Character sets for Apache and MySQL: http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]the_Character_Set It has nothing about Character Sets. |
| 17:41 | jcamins | You don't need to do that anymore. |
| 17:41 | lentzs | OK |
| 17:41 | jcamins | The INSTALL files have not been updated yet. |
| 17:41 | Also, you should be using packages. | |
| 17:42 | lentzs | So don't use the tar. |
| 17:42 | jcamins | Right. |
| 17:42 | Packages are vastly superior. | |
| 17:47 | lentzs | Can you point me in the right direction. |
| 17:49 | jcamins | packages? |
| 17:49 | wahanui | somebody said packages was at http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Debian |
| 17:49 | jcamins | ^^ follow those instructions. |
| 17:49 | Even though they say "Debian," they are suitable for Ubuntu. | |
| 17:51 | lentzs | INSTALL.ubuntu.12.04 file in the tar has me setup the repos but dose not use them. |
| 17:53 | jcamins | That's because Koha requires some dependencies that the Koha project packaged in advance of the Debian and Ubuntu projects. |
| 18:13 | lentzs | Ok, That makes it easy. |
| 18:19 | Found this: http://wiki.koha-community.org[…]ubuntu_-_packages | |
| 18:27 | jcamins | That exists, but you should be following the instructions I told you to earlier. |
| 18:27 | NateC joined #koha | |
| 18:29 | jcamins | If you run into problems, I might be able to help with the instructions I recommended. |
| 18:29 | With the other, you're on your own. | |
| 18:29 | (note: you might be on your own with any set of instructions, since I'm only on IRC as long as I'm working on other things on the computer) | |
| 18:52 | lentzs | I keep getting a 'System maintenance' message. How do I access the admin site. |
| 18:59 | jcamins | lentzs: do you have DNS set up? |
| 18:59 | If not, you may have to change the port the intranet is listening on. | |
| 19:00 | It's easy to do. | |
| 19:02 | lentzs | DNS is setup. Both intranet an OPAC is using the same port. ex domain lib.doamin.com. Should I be adding anything to it? |
| 19:06 | jcamins | lentzs: you probably have it set up as koha.lib.domain.com and koha-intra.lib.com. |
| 19:06 | (the second being the intranet;) | |
| 19:06 | Did you configure anything custom in /etc/koha/koha-sites.conf? | |
| 19:08 | lentzs | no, So I need to add lib-intra.domain.com to dns |
| 19:09 | jcamins | You called the instance lib? |
| 19:09 | lentzs | yes |
| 19:09 | jcamins | Yes. |
| 19:10 | You can confirm this by looking in /etc/koha/sites/lib/koha-httpd.conf | |
| 19:10 | In fact, you could change the VirtualHost directives to whatever you want to match your current DNS configuration. | |
| 19:13 | lentzs | There is no koha-httpd.conf |
| 19:14 | jcamins | No koha-httpd.conf... |
| 19:14 | Oh. | |
| 19:14 | Right. | |
| 19:14 | * jcamins | is on a development machine right now. |
| 19:15 | jcamins | /etc/apache2/sites-available/lib |
| 19:16 | lentzs | it created the site as lib-intralib |
| 19:16 | jcamins | Okay. You may want to adjust that to match your DNS. |
| 19:16 | lentzs | why did it append lib to the end? |
| 19:17 | jcamins | That's what your system thought it's fqdn was. |
| 19:17 | *its | |
| 19:17 | * jcamins | sobs in embarrassment over the inappropriate apostrophe. |
| 19:22 | lentzs | I did not at a '.' with the domain in the sites config. |
| 19:24 | jcamins | You don't need a terminating period. Just a period in between parts. |
| 19:28 | lentzs | That was it. |
| 19:29 | Wow installing Koha is easer the Evergreen. | |
| 19:29 | jcamins | It sure is. |
| 19:29 | I installed Evergreen a few weeks ago. | |
| 19:30 | I understand it used to be a lot harder, but it still took me a solid two days. | |
| 19:31 | That may have been in part because I was expecting everything to be like Koha, of course. | |
| 19:34 | lentzs | I like that evergreen has a staff client. Will koha have anyting like that? |
| 19:36 | THis is still easer to understand then evergreen. I was looking at evergreen or koha. After this experience, I think Koha wins. | |
| 19:38 | jcamins | Koha is entirely web based. |
| 19:38 | Rather than providing a special web browser (that's what the Evergreen staff client is), you just use a regular web browser to connect to the intranet. | |

| 20:10 | lentzs | Everything looks fine. Now is the fun part of migrating data from a Follett System. |
| 20:17 | * jcamins | can't help you with that. |
| 20:17 | jcamins | The key is to get MARC records out of Follett, and get item information into 952 fields. |
| 20:17 | * jcamins | leaves to go grocery shopping. |
