    Hello List, a) How can I change the "Personal name" field status from mandatory to optional? b) How can I repeat the "Personal name" for multiple authors? thanks, Tigran

    Actually i refered to cloud but in fact its a c-panel shared hosting system i manage, To be honest I installed 0.7.3g 2 years ago, if i remember i downloaded it because i wanted to use php 7 and move away from php 5. My worry was that the data centre will phase out older versions of php for security reasons. I only found out the other day that they were still using the old server, The IT guy on site never gave them the new links or told them to change. Lucky i managed to get a copy of the database...

  • Matt Boytim Matt Boytim posted a comment on discussion Help

    I assumed the cloud server supplied the openbiblio and components and you couldn't change. If you can go back to to working versions that is probably the easiest solution. We haven't updated our school library because the version we use has been working fine and I made some custom changes I would have to redo. I doubt 0.7.3g did anything to the database. How did you end up with 0.7.3g?

  • John Hawkins John Hawkins posted a comment on discussion Help

    Hi thanks for the answer Matt, after posting, dug a bit deeper, Changed the php version back to php v5.6 (was 7.6) on the new server, and removed OB 0.7.3g and installed 0.7.2, I am waiting for them to test it and see if its working, (my intial test it seems ok now) or if i must backup the old database and restore, not sure if the V0.7.3g did any damage to the database. Checked back in my records, Openbiblio was first loaded 2002. Amazing software, well done Dave Stevens

  • Matt Boytim Matt Boytim posted a comment on discussion Help

    I know very little about this. Our school library uses a much older version of openbiblio and I've done little to support it in recent years. I wasn't aware of a version 0.7.3g until I saw your post. I did find it for download here https://www.openbiblio.de/files/openbiblio0.7.3-g.zip so I'm guessing it's a private fork so I'm not sure how much help you will find here. Of course I'm not sure that's the same 0.7.3g version that the cloud server is running. There was someone asking recently about some...

  • John Hawkins John Hawkins posted a comment on discussion Help

    Are you trying to install 0.7.2? I got the same error "PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class Error in /var/www/html/openbiblio/classes/Error.php on line 17" but think I was able to get past it by just renaming the class. I renamed it from Error to ErrorO (for openbiblio), and the two references (extends Error) to it below in the same file. I then got in the apache log PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function mysql_fetch_row() in /var/www/html/openbiblio/install/index.php:22\nStack...

    Hi, I've been watching your thread but haven't replied because I don't really have anything to add. We've been using an older version of OpenBiblio in our school libraries for several years and are really happy with it. Usually Fred LaPlante is helpful for solving issues and I figured he would chime in. I am familiar with this kind of frustration but I wouldn't completely give up because in my opinion OpenBiblio is worth the effort. Maybe someone else will chime in but if not I will give the install...

    UPDATE-2: The offending code appears to be an Error class definition on line seventeen of the Error.php file. "PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class Error in /var/www/html/openbiblio/classes/Error.php on line 17" I can run the header & footer files, just to confirm that PHP will execute in that folder.

    Direct insert into MySql is possible, but VERY complex. ver 1.0 has a help screen that shows what data goes into which column in CSV. The import mechanism provides a 'test' mode so you can be sure what is happening before committing to a database insert. CSV import does not over-write, so if not careful and make multiple runs you could get duplicate entries; but it is not very hard to find those and remove them. Openbiblio stores data using 'MARC 21 tags' for storage keys for all biblio data. One...

    Thank you again. As you recommend me, I will try to find ver 1.x somewhere. I have a question regarding the correct sequence of coloumns in excel before I transfer it to CSV and further import to OpenBiblio (or culd I do it directly to some table in MySQL? If so - to which one?) And when I import CSV filre to OpenBoiblio - will new record be added to existing ones or will owervriteb them? Here is my direct mail: vlado.venuti@gmail.com Best regards Vlado

    Sounds your system is much like what I had when I used ver0.6 & 0.7 many years ago. I have since moved on to v1.x and I can not find any trace of v0.7 n my system. Both versions have the ability to input .csv files, but I believe ver 1.x is easier to use. I think you are right about Slovenian language vs English. If you only have books to catalog, either version should work well. The version is located adjacent to the "OpenBiblio" logo. I recall that is on the left side of the screen, butt no sure....

    Thank you for your answer. I'm going to try to answer on your questions in the same order as you gave them: Version of OpenBiblio? I'm not sure where to look for it, but I downloaded openbiblio-0.7.2.zip and I installed xampp-windows-x64-8.0.8-0-vs16-installer.exe. I use Windows OS and Library I take care of is now in an Excel table. My location is Slovenia, Europe and my preferred language (of course) is Slovenian. But because this is probably not possible, my second choice is English. Library consists...

    In order to be of much help to you, it would be very useful to know which version of OpenBiblio you are working with: v0.7x or v1.x The user interfaces are very different. What computer OS you use, Windows, Linux or Apple. And is the database, and main system running on your desktop or a server. Do you plan to use the default MySql database of some thing else. Your location in the world might help too, as well as your preferred language. V1.x has support fro several differnt languages. Very helpful...

    Is there anybody who woud help me, please, I am not an bibliographic expert and I couldn't even find in documentation how to enter data for a single book..... For example, what dooes the word 'Bibliography' stads for? Does it mean a single book or a group of books with somehow common properties? I really don't know such things.

    Hi Vlado, Years ago I made a migration from a proprietary library system to OpenBiblio. I made a guide (1) where is the table used. It has been a long time but I hope it will be useful for your orientation.

    Hello all, I don't even know how to name the subject for the issue I have, so I attached a screenshot that pretty much says it all. To every button/text in the interface I have the name/string of the section added at the beginning. Some information: I imported the sql database through phpMyAdmin on an Openbiblio installation made with Softaculous. OB version is 0.7.2 PHP version is 5.6 Since I don't have any knowledge with sql and I'm just a beginner in OpenBiblio I kindly ask for your help. If someone...

    Recently installed OpenBiblio and the "Member Types" section in the Admin tab does not work at all. I just get a Database Query Error. Is this a bug or something on my side that can be fixed? MySQL version 8.0, not sure if that's an issue. This is the message I get: Database Query Error - You've Probably Found a Bug Database query failed Please give all the information on this page to your support personnel.
