Again, what am I doing wrong? Have I not configured something? How can I ultimately load my millions of records into version 3.x?
For handling millions of records, bulkmarcimport.pl is the better bet. The staging MARC import (for which I've fixed a few bugs recently -- are you using the alpha distribution or a recent git pull?) is handy if you want to try different record matching profiles or revert batch loads, but consumes extra space and time that's not needed for a load of millions of records. Once you do a bulkmarcimport.pl run, the zebraqueue daemon process will index the records one at a time. But if you've just done a large bib load, it's much faster to (re)build the indexes in bulk by running rebuild_zebra.pl. If you haven't started zebraqueue or run rebuild_zebra.pl yet, then Zebra hasn't indexed anything yet, and that might account for the lack of search results. If running rebuild_zebra.pl doesn't take care of it, please post some more details from the Zebra log.
Finally, I think the version 3.x demo is really impressive! I like the path this is taking. Faceted browse. Cover art. Web Services interfaces. Very nice. The only thing I didn't see was spell check/ Did You Mean?
The feature is there, but for minor typos, the search engine automatically includes the correct terms. For example, try searching on 'Stephen Wing'. It is also possible to configure Koha to explicitly give spelling suggestions to the user, but that doesn't appear to have been activated for opacdemo.koha.org.
