[Koha-win32] RE: blank200 db is really blank

[Michael L. Champion]

Hi Dana,

 

I recently joined the list and saw that this was left unanswered, so far.  I’m not certain how it is suppose to be done but I made a copy of the blank200 data folder under c:\mysql\data and renamed it.  I then went into c:\etc\koha.conf and pointed the database variable at the new folder.

 

In regards to the MARC data tables being empty.  I agree it seems unfortunate but understandable.  There are many versions of MARC which contain different fields.  You can check out the variations at http://www.loc.gov/marc .  For smaller, less academic installations, I’m leaning toward the MARC LITE Format (see the summary of fields at http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/lite/elbdsummary.html )

 

Hope this helps.

 

Regards,
