Facets missing on fresh dev install of 3.18.3
by Cindy Murdock Ames 29 Jan '15

29 Jan '15

Hi all, I'm working on setting up a new server with a fresh dev install of 3.18.3 (well, it was a fresh install of 3.18.2 last week but I've updated it) using a copy of our database from our current server, which is running a customized version of 3.01.133. I've run updatedatabase.pl on it (manually because otherwise apache times out) as well as remove_items_from_biblioitems.pl. Everything seems to work *except* for the search facets. I've done a lot of googling, and I suspect it has to do with the new zebra faceting system, but I don't know enough about zebra to figure out why this is happening, so I'd be grateful if someone could help me figure this out. Zebra appears to be working otherwise, I do get search results, just no facets. In other cases I found where people were having trouble their indexing was not working at all because it wasn't fully configured to use dom, but I chose to use dom from the installer and as far as I can tell from my koha-conf.xml it's configured correctly. Pertinent bits from koha-conf.xml: <server id="biblioserver" listenref="biblioserver"> <directory>/home/kohaclone/koha-dev/var/lib/zebradb/biblios</directory> <config>/home/kohaclone/koha-dev/etc/zebradb/zebra-biblios-dom.cfg</config> <cql2rpn>/home/kohaclone/koha-dev/etc/zebradb/pqf.properties</cql2rpn> <xi:include href="/home/kohaclone/koha-dev/etc/zebradb/retrieval-info-bib-dom.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"/> <xi:include href="/home/kohaclone/koha-dev/etc/zebradb/explain-biblios.xml" xmlns:xi=" http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"/> </server> <server id="authorityserver" listenref="authorityserver" > <directory>/home/kohaclone/koha-dev/var/lib/zebradb/authorities</directory> <config>/home/kohaclone/koha-dev/etc/zebradb/zebra-authorities-dom.cfg</config> <cql2rpn>/home/kohaclone/koha-dev/etc/zebradb/pqf.properties</cql2rpn> <xi:include href="/home/kohaclone/koha-dev/etc/zebradb/retrieval-info-auth-dom.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"/> <xi:include href="/home/kohaclone/koha-dev/etc/zebradb/explain-authorities.xml" xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"/> </server> (Note--we don't use authorities so I haven't bothered to run rebuild_zebra.pl with -a) <zebra_bib_index_mode>dom</zebra_bib_index_mode> <zebra_auth_index_mode>dom</zebra_auth_index_mode> <zebra_lockdir>/home/kohaclone/koha-dev/var/lock/zebradb</zebra_lockdir> <use_zebra_facets>1</use_zebra_facets> <queryparser_config>/home/kohaclone/koha-dev/etc/searchengine/queryparser.yaml</queryparser_config> I've tried reindexing biblios with -x and without, doesn't seem to make any difference.

Migrating Server Question
by Jesse Lambertson 28 Jan '15

28 Jan '15

Hello, We are waiting for our server to arrive (on which we will install Koha). But it might be delayed. What experience do people have with installing Koha in one place and then migrating that server and database to another server? I am not sure what kind of time we are talking about in the delay, but I am wondering if this is done regularly, how easy it is and if it is worth it to install and migrate or just wait. Thank you in advance, Jesse -- Jesse A Lambertson Librarian Sultan Qaboos Cultural Center 1100 16th St, NW Washington, DC 20036 Ph: (202)-677-3967 Ext. 104 jlambertson(a)sqcc.org

Searches
by Philllip Ponchot 27 Jan '15

27 Jan '15

Last year I upgraded my library to Koha 3.14 with the help of an excellent and reasonably priced vendor. It has made using Koha much better. I've had a few complaints, though about the searching of the catalog. After investigation, I think I understand the complaint. If you're searching for a book "The last detail" the search returns everything with the words "the", "last" "detail" with no particular attention to priority. In other words the book "the last detail" will appear but maybe on page 12 of the results. I would like to modify the search algorithm so that the first returned results is when the words searched appear all together. Can anyone give me any hints on how to modify the search engine? Thanks, Phillip
