Description cplatt 2018-11-05 20:07:08 UTC
Patrons try to log into overdrive to check out a library ebook but get authentication server time out response.
Comment 1 Katrin Fischer 2018-11-05 20:28:06 UTC
Which is the exact version you have tested this with?
Comment 2 Nick Clemens (kidclamp) 2018-11-05 20:32:39 UTC
Have you setup a SIP connection for OverDrive to authenticate against? And have you tested the connection to ensure that it is working?

Additionally you will need to check the values in your system preferences with OverDrive and request access for the OverDrive patron authentication API at developer.overdrive.com - let them know you are setting up access for Koha and they should get back to you
