Hello

I have configured Z39.50 hosts and can connect to the host. But when I attempt to search, I get the message Can’t find capture filter.

I looked up the BkWrAPI folder under our Reference Manager 12 instance and can’t find any .cap files.

Should .cap files be created automatically when I connect to the external host? Or is there a possibility for me to create one form scratch?

We’re in a networked installation and I access with full write access.

Could you please advise where to investigate further on this issue?

Thanks
