Thanks to Mohan Pradhan for developing this documentation.

Go to $VUFIND_HOME/confing/vufind. Copy the following files and move them into the $VUFIND_LOCAL/config/vufind directory:

cp /usr/local/vufind/config/vufind/KohaILSDI.ini  /usr/local/vufind/local/config/vufind

Edit the file KohaI.ini and input the following information under the [Catalog] section:

host = ip or url
port = 3306
username = User created in MariaDB  server
password = password given while creating user in MariaDB server
database = name of database of koha

Example:

The ip, username, password, database and url will be different in your case.

We are using port 3306 in our example. You can check your port number with the command:

telnet KohaSeverIP 3306

If it is successful, you will see something like this:

Note: In our example, the ip address is 10.100.30.217. Your ip will be different.

If it is unsuccessful, you will have to enable remote access to your Mariadb/MySQL database. The procedure is given on this page.
