Hi all,

I'm using KDE 4.4.5 with Tellico-2.2 on Gentoo.

I can't configure Tellico, to search for informations through National Library of Poland data sources.

I've found http://irspy.indexdata.com/full.html?id ... 10/INNOPAC

... but when I configure tellico like here:

source type: SRU server
server: alpha.bn.org.pl
port: 210
path: /innopac
format: MODS

and then try to search something, I get an error (sth like: "Time limit exceeded on server: alpha.bn.org.pl").

Is anyone who can help me?

I've also found that it's possible to search through polish library's sources with z39.50 configuration. But I don't know how to do it?

Help me, please;)

Sorry, this is a late reply, but I just tried the alpha.bn.org.pl z39.50 search and it seems to work. Did you try it? Not a SRU server, but a z39.50 server with the INNOPAC database listed on the IRSpy page.

I belive that it works. But I can't configure it.

I click Settings-> Configuration:Tellico -> Data sources -> New
There is a list of possibilities of "type of source".

I can't find there "z39.50 server", and i don't know what should I choose...
I think, I tried each type from this list, but I can't configure it correctly.

Could you describe your configuration?
Thanks a lot.

Tellico has to be compiled with the yaz library for z39.50 support. It looks like your distribution didn't include that. You probably want to check with them.

If you compile from source, you can get the library from http://www.indexdata.com/yaz
