Our system is running Slackware, so the process will be a bit different. This was most helpful, however, and I'm sure we'll be able to work it from here. Thanks a lot :) Braedon Vickers wrote:

How can we make the switch to Zebra? Besides changing the system parameter what else needs to be done?
You need to setup and start the Zebra daemons, index all your current inventory, and set up a cron job to automatically update the index.
What OS and install type(dev/standard) are you on?
For an Ubuntu standard install, do the following. Adjust to your system if different.
Setup the Daemons:
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude installidzebra-2.0 sudo ln -s /usr/share/koha/bin/koha-zebra-ctl.sh/etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon sudo update-rc.d koha-zebra-daemon defaults sudo /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon start
sudo ln -s /usr/share/koha/bin/koha-zebraqueue-ctl.sh/etc/init.d/koha-zebraqueue-daemon sudo update-rc.d koha-zebraqueue-daemon defaults sudo /etc/init.d/koha-zebraqueue-daemon start
Make sure you have set the following environmental variables so you can run the scripts:
export KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/koha-conf.xmlexport PERL5LIB=/usr/share/koha/lib
I put them in /etc/enviroment, but there are a few other options also.
This command should do the initial index:
perl -I /usr/share/koha/lib /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -v -b -w
The cron job to do regular index updates should be set up for the koha user, assuming you have. To open a crontab editor for the koha user:
sudo -u koha crontab-e
The following lines are what I have in my crontab:
# ZEBRA INDEX UPDATES with -z option, incremental index updates throughout the day # for both authorities and bibs */10 * * * * /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -a -z> /dev/null
Once you have done all that, you should be able to switch the preference over in Koha.
Note that I have only tested this on Ubuntu standard install of 3.00.05.
Hope that helps,
