<br>> the only thing that i can see from here that might be amiss is that i might have inadvertently started the zebraqueue daemon, when i type ps aux, i get a couple of lines that say:<br>

<br><br>> When i ran rebuild_zebra with switches -b -a -z, it took approximately 1 second to return to the prompt. i tried running it with switches -b -a -r, and it took much longer - about 10 minutes and returned a few messages that said something about not being able to find headings, and now when i try and run rebuild_zebra with either -z or -r i get an error that says DBD driver has not implemented the AutoCommit attribute at /usr/lib/perl5/DBI.pm line 690. and immediately returns to the prompt.<br>
<br></div>Try running '<a href="http://rebuild_zebra.pl" target="_blank">rebuild_zebra.pl</a> -b -a -r -v' and post any errors it throws.<br><br>Kind Regards,<br><font color="#888888">Chris<br>
