[Isis-users] Question about ABCD

[Egbert De Smet]

Soraya,


I came accross one issue - which seems almost impossible to tackle, I and several others made big efforts - which no longer works correctly in Windows : the Site Admin (the CMS to configure the ABCD Site).

Once the new OPAC, which takes a few functions over from the Site like e.g. Meta-Search over several databases, is available, the ABCD Site might be phased out without a real loss of functionalities. Many ABCD-users started replacing the Site or parts (e.g. the non-search frames) by own HTML creations, using available website production tools.

As far as I could find out the underlying reasons, it is related to different libxml libraries in Windows vs. Linux. Exactly the same Site Admin scripts in Linux still work perfectly in the same PHP-versions.

This shows how difficult it is to maintain a FOSS system based on many external software tools/libraries

Hello everyone!

If necessary, I would also like to help with the Portuguese translation.

One question: is it possible to know which functions will no longer work in Windows?

Thank you and stay well,

Edwin,


of course, you're already in our notebook for help with Portuguese translations, but thanks indeed.

Good morning colleagues

Hope all are doing well. I have a question about ABCD. I read an email few day ago explaining that a new version is on the way. I know during this time is hard.
This new version is going to be using MySQL?
We will have two versions: for windows and Linux?
Do you need help? If this is correct, what kind of help?? Programming, translation,

Thanks very much in advance
