            Bug ID: 375758
           Summary: Outdated settings BIBSYS data source
           Product: tellico
           Version: HEAD
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: ro...@periapsis.org
          Reporter: k...@huftis.org
  Target Milestone: ---

The settings for the ‘BIBSYS (Norway)’ data source in Tellico is outdated and
no longer work. They need to be changed to these settings:

Host: eu01.alma.exlibrisgroup.com
Port: 210
Database: 47BIBSYS_NETWORK
Character encoding: utf-8
Format: MARC21

My source for this information is this Web page:
http://www.bibsys.no/files/out/z39.50/bibz.html

The character encoding is not specified on that page, but I have tested a few
queries, and only UTF-8 return correctly coded results.

However, there seems to be a bug in regards to non-ASCII queries. Whenever I
search for a title with non-ASCII characters, I get this error message:

  Malformed query (Error. Code: 33. Empty term was found in RPN query)

I’m not sure if this is a bug in the query string that Tellico sends or in the
z39.50 server. An example title for testing this is ‘grønn’. However, searching
for ‘gronn’ instead works (and, incidentally, returns a few books with ‘grønn’
in the title).

In any case, the above settings seems to be correct, and current settings in
Tellico for the ‘BIBSYS (Norway)’ database should be changed to them, even if
non-ASCII queries don’t work correctly.

I have tested this with the latest GitHub version.
