SFX conditional display

• Article Type: General
• Product: Aleph
• Product Version: 16.02

Description:
On the Full page header, full-set-head, the SFX button comes through on $1100 unconditionally, whether or not the record contains an 856 field. Is this working as intended, or can I make it conditional in some way?

Resolution:
SFX button Conditional display in ALEPH OPAC (defined in tab_sfx), please read the following instructions for apache configuration:

1. In the reverse proxy httpd.config file found in /exlibris/sfx_ver/sfx_version_3/sfxglb3/config/reverse_proxy_httpd.config__

Please add add for each sfx instance the two bolded lines

# Global Instance
ProxyPass /sfxadmin/sfxglb3 http://localhost:3001/sfxadmin/sfxglb3
ProxyPassReverse /sfxadmin/sfxglb3 http://localhost:3001/sfxadmin/sfxglb3
ProxyPass /sfxglb3 http://localhost:3001/sfxglb3
ProxyPassReverse /sfxglb3 http://localhost:3001/sfxglb3
ProxyPass /SFX_API/sfxglb3 http://localhost:3001/SFX_API/sfxglb3
ProxyPassReverse /SFX_API/sfxglb3 http://localhost:3001/SFX_API/sfxglb3

It can also use ver2 instance names like

# For instance sfxtst3
ProxyPass /sfx_test http://localhost:3003/sfx_test
ProxyPassReverse /sfx_test http://localhost:3003/sfx_test
ProxyPass /sfxadmin/sfx_test http://localhost:3003/sfxadmin/sfx_test
ProxyPassReverse /sfxadmin/sfx_test http://localhost:3003/sfxadmin/sfx_test
ProxyPass /SFX_API/sfx_test http://localhost:3003/SFX_API/sfx_test
ProxyPassReverse /SFX_API/sfx_test http://localhost:3003/SFX_API/sfx_test

Need to make sure that the internal port (e.g. 3003) and instance name are consistent to the rest of the section

Restart the reverse proxy apache using server_admin_util

2. In the config directory of each instance, edit the file local_httpd.config and add the bolded line:

# For backward compatibility
ScriptAlias /sfxglb3 /exlibris/sfx_ver/sfx_version_3/sfxglb3/cgi/core/sfxmenu.cgi
ScriptAlias /SFX_API/sfxglb3 /exlibris/sfx_ver/sfx_version_3/sfxglb3/cgi/core/sfxmenu.cgi
ScriptAlias /external_export/sfxglb3 /exlibris/sfx_ver/sfx_version_3/sfxglb3/sfxadmin/external_export.cgi

<Directory "/exlibris/sfx_ver/sfx_version_3/sfxglb3/cgi/core/sfxmenu.cgi">
SetHandler perl-script
PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::Registry
PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
Options +ExecCGI
</Directory>

Make sure to use the correct instance name.

Restart the instance Apache
