[OPEN-ILS-DEV] marc record import questions - gutenberg

[Lyons, Cyrus 2]

Hi Robert,

The backslash should only be placed at the end of one line but in the
middle of a command. It allows one command to span multiple lines:

root at evergreen:~# mkdir foo

...would create the directory ~/foo. This would also create that
directory:

root at evergreen:~# mkdir \
> foo

...hitting return at the end of each line. If you type the command out
on one line, the backslash is unnecessary; indeed, it will interfere
with the proper syntax of the command. The following two commands are
not identical, and only the second is correct:

root at evergreen:~# mkdir \ bar
root at evergreen:~# mkdir bar

This is important when commands are followed by options (as in your
case); the options trailing the backslash will not be interpreted
correctly.

Once you have the server running, the staff client should indeed be
good to go. The first time you run it from any given machine, you need
to use the admin details ("admin" // "open-ils" are default) to log
in, and then register the workstation using the area in the top-right
of the client login screen. Once you have done that, you can use that
staff client to log in with any Staff patron account.

That should be all that there is to it. I'm afraid I know too little
about the software to help on anything more technical than that!


Cheers,

Cyrus

I was able to get this part to work but am still running into snags
during the import of the Gutenberg records.  

When I try:

perl pg_loader.pl -or bre -or mrd -or mfr -or mtfe -or mafe -or msfe
-or
mkfe -or msefe \ -a mrd -a mfr -a mtfe -a mafe -a msfe -a mkfe -a
msefe
< ~/gutenberg.ingest > ~/gutenberg.sql

I get the errors 
"Can't open -a No such file..."
"Can't open "mrd No such file..."

Was I reading this command wrong? Should the "\" between "msefe" and
"-a" be there?  
If I remove the "\" it seems to run but when I complete the steps for
importing and making the records viewable in the catalog, it doesn't
seem to be correct since no records seem to be in the catalog.  


1. Once Evergreen is installed, should the staff client be good to go
or
did I need to register the computers in a config file on the system?
The
server connection test works but I cannot login. "admin" and
"open-ils"
are the default admin login and password, correct?


The system is running and the settings-tester and srfsh tests are
indicating no problems.


Thank,
Robert
