| 01:44 | Hunaid | Hello. I am looking for a library management software for my school. i cam across koha. But i understand it runs on Linux. Does it work on windows? |
| 01:49 | tuxayo | Hunaid: hi :) It worked on Windows in the past, now I'm not sure, but you will have a much harder time running it on Windows than on Linux. |
| 01:53 | Hunaid | Thank you. Can you recommend something for Windows |

| 07:20 | ashimema | What do you mean by 'runs on windows' Hunald.. I wouldn't suggest running it on a desktop machine.. it is designed to sit on a server.. |
| 07:21 | I imagine Koha would run under linux subsystem for windows.. but I've personally not tried | |

| 10:19 | ashimema | Hi cait1 |
| 10:26 | cait1 | just got out of morning meetings |
| 10:26 | how is everyon? | |
| 10:28 | ashimema | not bad, not bad |
| 10:28 | just looking through the accessibility improvement bugs | |
| 10:29 | little bit scary.. think they're at the stage and having taken it all apart and now working out how to put it back together again | |
| 10:29 | the first patch I just QA'd is scary | |
| 10:30 | wow.. back up to 80 majors.. that seems a little high | |
| 10:37 | cait1 | yeah we have been better |
| 10:41 | oleonard | Hi all |
| 10:41 | We seem to be having a surge of people asking to run Koha on Windows. I wonder if there was a catalyst. | |
| 10:43 | cait1 | oh, only saw one of them on mailng list, but miht have deleted others |
| 10:44 | ashimema | it's weird |
| 10:44 | I noted at least a couple | |
| 10:49 | tcohen | Good morning |

| 12:03 | oleonard | ashimema: I'm adding some follow-ups to my title-string patches because I've found some missed ones |
| 12:03 | ashimema | I saw |
| 12:03 | oleonard | I'm setting them back to signed off so you can have another look, if you don't mind |
| 12:04 | ashimema | will do |
| 12:04 | there's so many cases it's really easy to miss them | |

| 15:04 | cait2 | hm no |
| 15:04 | Pizza | |
| 15:14 | oleonard | Tomorrow is pizza day. Today is fried mackerel day. |
| 15:21 | cait2 | but... |
| 15:21 | caroline | by that logic, it's pizza day in NZ |
| 15:21 | Or is pizza day always tomorrow? | |
| 15:25 | oleonard | no! |
| 15:40 | eythian | Thursday is pizza day in NZ IIRC |
| 15:44 | cm joined #koha | |
| 15:44 | cm | hi |
| 15:45 | how reliable is link_bibs_to_authorities.pl? | |
| 15:45 | it found the correct number of occurrences of my authorities but didn't link anything | |
| 15:46 | or do i maybe have to rebuild the zebraindex to see the links? | |
| 15:47 | caroline | cm I think you have to rebuild the indexes yes |
| 15:47 | also, check the linker system preferences | |
| 15:47 | cm | where do i find these preferences? |
| 15:50 | caroline | Administration > System preferences > Authorities |
| 15:50 | cm | ok, i've rebuild the index but still see nothing |
| 15:50 | i'll relink | |
| 15:50 | caroline | Or Administration > System preferences and search for Linker |
| 15:50 | cm | thx |
| 15:52 | what setting should i be looking for? | |
| 15:52 | as far as i can see, everything is set to default | |
| 15:53 | caroline | just check to make sure it's to your liking |
| 15:53 | cm | ok |
| 15:53 | so i did the linking again: still nothing :-( | |
| 15:54 | caroline | did you run it with -v to see what it does? |
| 15:54 | cm | yes |
| 15:54 | first, it processed all of my records | |
| 15:55 | Number of bibs checked: 46386 | |
| 15:55 | Number of bibs modified: 0 | |
| 15:56 | didnt do any linking, even though it found the correct number of occurrences, like: Bericht: 447 occurrences | |
| 15:57 | or maybe i misunderstand what the linker is supposed to do? | |
| 15:57 | I'm talking about the "used in x records" number | |
| 15:57 | which is still 0 | |
| 15:58 | caroline | I use it all the time and it usually works |
| 15:58 | dis you modify your MARC frameworks? | |
| 15:58 | maybe if $9 is not in the framework, it can't link | |
| 15:58 | cm | it is in the framework |
| 15:59 | i' | |
| 15:59 | i'll double-check | |
| 15:59 | caroline | I'm out of ideas... :/ |
| 16:00 | cm | ok, i have 2 frameworks |
| 16:00 | default and another one | |
| 16:00 | $9 is set for the other one | |
| 16:00 | maybe the linker is using the wrong framework? | |
| 16:01 | caroline | depends on your bib records |
| 16:02 | MarkHofstetter joined #koha | |
| 16:02 | cm | hm |
| 16:02 | what could i do to verify it is using the desired framework? | |
| 16:06 | fridolin left #koha | |
| 16:08 | caroline | cm check one of your 447 Bericht records |
| 16:08 | which framework does it use? | |
| 16:08 | cm | ok one sec.. |
| 16:08 | how can i see the framework? | |
| 16:08 | is it in the marc record? | |
| 16:09 | caroline | in the staff interface, if you click in the MARC view, it shoudl show just above the marc |
| 16:09 | there should be a drop down menu with your frameworks... the one that is selected is the one your record uses | |
| 16:09 | cm | ok it is using the correct framework |
| 16:10 | caroline | damn... I was hoping that would be the problem hehe! |
| 16:10 | cm | so maybe a colleague altered the framework recently.. anything i have to do after that maybe? |
| 16:10 | as i said i rebuild the zebtra-index | |
| 16:11 | caroline | can you check if you edit the record and click on the tag for Bericht, is there a $9? |
| 16:11 | is the subfield there and is it filled? | |
| 16:12 | normally the $9 has the authority record number in it | |
| 16:14 | cm | hm |
| 16:14 | so i see $9 in my framework | |
| 16:15 | but not in the marc of the specific record | |
| 16:15 | caroline | even if you click on the title of the tag? |
| 16:15 | (to "open" the tag) | |
| 16:18 | cm | ok |
| 16:18 | i see $9 but it is not set | |
| 16:18 | that should happen by the linking i guess? | |
| 16:18 | caroline | yes |
| 16:18 | cm | so the $9 is there |
| 16:18 | at least :) | |
| 16:19 | caroline | is the text in your bib record and in your auth record the same? |
| 16:19 | Sometimes I've seen it won't recognize if there are spaces or different punctuation | |
| 16:19 | cm | you mean the keyword? |
| 16:19 | caroline | yes |
| 16:19 | cm | yes |
| 16:19 | it's exactly the same | |
| 16:19 | caroline | ok that's good |
| 16:20 | reiveune | bye |
| 16:20 | reiveune left #koha | |
| 16:21 | caroline | when you reindex, do you index your authorities? |
| 16:21 | hm... dumb questions | |
| 16:21 | cm | yes, i especially added -a to zebrA |
| 16:21 | caroline | of course otherwise you wouldn't be able to find them |
| 16:22 | did you also add -b? | |
| 16:22 | wouldn't change anything if $9 is empty | |
| 16:22 | sorry, thinking out loud | |
| 16:22 | cm | sudo koha-rebuild-zebra -v -f library |
| 16:22 | thats what i did | |
| 16:23 | and then again with flag -a | |
| 16:23 | maybe the linker is trying the link the wrong tag? | |
| 16:23 | e.g. one record has its keyword in tag 650 | |
| 16:24 | another one in 651 | |
| 16:24 | another one in 100 | |
| 16:25 | caroline | those are all standard... |
| 16:26 | cm | looking at the subfield settings for $9 now |
| 16:26 | there are several options like important, mandatory and so on | |
| 16:26 | caroline | shouldn't change anything |
| 16:26 | cm | hm |
| 16:26 | damn | |
| 16:26 | caroline | yeah... |
| 16:28 | cm | so let's assume that the framework was changed |
| 16:28 | what might be needed to make the changes visible to the linker? | |
| 16:28 | i already did a rebuild | |
| 16:28 | a restart of the database maybe? | |
| 16:30 | now im looking at the "Koha to MARC mapping" options | |
| 16:30 | there are several mappings for subfields a or b but none for $9 | |
| 16:30 | maybe that's missing? | |
| 16:30 | caroline | let me check mine, but I don't think it's supposed to be linked |
| 16:31 | no only 952$9 is linked in mine | |
| 16:32 | cm | hm |
| 16:32 | looking at "authority types" | |
| 16:33 | i checked all types and again see several subfields | |
| 16:33 | but $9 is missing | |
| 16:33 | should it be added there as well? | |
| 16:33 | caroline | in my default MARC framework, for 100$9 I have Managed in tab 1, Visibility OPAC, Intranet, Collapsed |
| 16:34 | and for 100$a I have Managed in tab 1, Visibility OPAC, Intranet, Edito, Koha link biblio.author, thesaurus PERSO_NAME | |
| 16:34 | cm | checking mine |
| 16:36 | look similar | |
| 16:37 | $9 is managed in tab 0 but i guess that doesnt matter | |
| 16:37 | caroline | is $a also managed in tab 0? |
| 16:37 | cm | yes |
| 16:37 | caroline | (as long as they're in the same tab, it's ok) |
| 16:38 | To circle back to your authority types questions, it's normal that there is no $9 in there | |
| 16:38 | cm | ok |
| 16:39 | caroline | $9 is used to store the auth number in the bib record, so it's only necessary in the bib record |
| 16:42 | cm | hm |
| 16:42 | sorry for bothering you sou much caroline .. | |
| 16:43 | i really appreciate your patience :-) | |
| 16:43 | caroline | sorry I can't help you more |
| 16:43 | cm | hm |
| 16:43 | yeah i guess ill just leave it at that | |
| 16:43 | thx! | |
| 16:43 | caroline | I'm out of ideas, but I can answer questions if you have other ones |
| 16:44 | cm | so if i link records to authorities manually, it works |
| 16:44 | does that give you any hint? | |
| 16:44 | caroline | no... |
| 16:45 | cm | :-) |
| 16:52 | thx again caroline! | |
| 16:52 | bye | |

| 17:21 | circ-user-exXpE | Hi everyone |
| 17:22 | First time using the channel. I hope I dont do anything wrong | |
| 17:23 | In my library we are trying to setup the search in chinese characters but all attempts around Zebra are getting nowhere | |
| 17:23 | does anyone have a very clear idea about what we should do? | |
| 17:24 | is there any good instruction out there on how to do this? | |
| 17:38 | khall joined #koha | |
| 17:53 | ashimema | sorry circ-user-exCpE.. I'm just clocking off for the day.. as are allot of europe |
| 17:53 | you might have better luck trying again tomorrow a little earlier.. or weighting a couple of hours and hoping others come along that might be able to help | |
| 17:54 | or use the mailing lists | |
| 17:54 | We have various things working in zebra here including kanji and chinese.. so there is a way.. but I'm not sure what it is off the top of my head | |
| 17:54 | ICU might be required as a starter | |
| 17:55 | * ashimema | runs off to save burning dinner |
