Configuring the KohaILSDI ILS Driver
Thanks to Mohan Pradhan for developing this documentation.
Configuring VuFind for single instance in ILSDI
Copy the KohaILSDI.ini default configuration file from $VUFIND_HOME/config/vufind into the $VUFIND_LOCAL_DIR/config/vufind directory. For example:
cp $VUFIND_HOME/config/vufind/KohaILSDI.ini $VUFIND_LOCAL_DIR/config/vufind
Edit the file KohaILSDI.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
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.
