You're absolutely correct, I tried the search again without the $d (date) and it worked. I still don't understand why my uploaded authorities aren't linking. Maybe whatever was hanging up the server interfered with the link process? At any rate, we're going to start again from scratch tonight. The uploaded records don't have subfield d in them, so at least that's not part of the problem. I'm supposed to demonstrate the wonders of Koha to the advisory committee tomorrow. I must say, it looks impressive, even if it's not all there yet! On Thu, Oct 14, 2010 at 11:18 AM, Ian Bays <ian.bays@ptfs-europe.com> wrote:
Elaine, We have seen this on one of our systems when the subfield d in the authority is used for date range. I believe that Colin Campbell has been looking at it. I will let Colin (or anyone else) comment on what the solution might be, but thought it worth mentioning you are not alone and I don't think you missed a step.

Greetings all,
We did a bulk import of biblios, and then a bulk import of name authorities, Then we ran link_bibs_to_authorities.pl , and finally ran the zebra. Sometime after that we had to reboot the server as something else was causing it to run very slowly. Have we missed any steps in this process?
Two possibly? related problems occurred with authorities. 1) The authorities don't seem to have linked to the bibs. 2) Trying to figure out why, I created a new biblio, so we could see where the link is broken in our imported records. I was editing the new record, and asked it to search the authorities for a name (one that isn't in the authorities file, as it happens) in the 100 field. This popped up:
ZOOM error 20003 "can't set prefix query" (addinfo: "@or @attr 7=1 @attr 1=Heading 0 @and @attr 1=authtype @attr 5=100 PERSO_NAME @attr 1=Heading @attr 5=1 @attr 4=6 "Maxwell, Robert L.," @attr 1=Heading @attr 5=1 @attr 4=6 "1957- "") from diag-set 'ZOOM' For help, please send mail to the webmaster (webmaster@efdss.org), giving this error message and the time and date of the error.
My webmaster doesn't know what this means. I've found multiple bug listings for ZOOM error 20003- I think this is the latest. http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=3386
We've got the candidate release of 3.2 installed - do I still need the patch? Does this error message have anything to do with the fact that the links aren't working? As far as I can tell, the MARC framework for the 100 field is set correctly. Thanks again
