Hi I see a lot of people complaining about this and I had trouble with this myself. First off there are bugs in Authorities.pl and Biblio.pm where it does not check to ensure $record or $marc is defined but checks for a value of -1 (I think???) - I'd hope that will be fixed in 3.6 Anyway if you are creating authorities a lot and they don't turn up in an authority search but you can search the opac or do a catalogue search and find biblios with the personal or corporate name e.t.c. attached to it you probably have a similar problem to me. I suspect it is because reindex_zebra.pl failed and the cleanup_database.pl script kicked in and pruned my failed Authorities (don't know that just suspect it), at the time the rebuild_zebra.pl -z -a -b -v was giving this error : **** ERROR : "Can't call method "field" on an undefined value at C4/Biblio.pm line 359" You can verify by recreating one authority then running bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -z -a -v When you search for the authority it will find it with 0 bibs attached. So to fix this I updated my cron job to do an authorities only re index then run link_bibs_to_authorities.pl then do a biblio only re-index. This fixed it for me 100%. I run these as a cron job every 2 mins so my koha crontab for that section looks like this. # ZEBRA INDEX UPDATES with -z option, incremental index updates throughout the day # for both authorities and bibs */2 * * * * $KOHA_CRON_PATH/../migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -a -z
/dev/null */2 * * * * $KOHA_CRON_PATH/../link_bibs_to_authorities.pl >/dev/null */2 * * * * $KOHA_CRON_PATH/../migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -z /dev/null
