Ahh that is not the zebra error log. But the rebuild zebra one. I think you may be confusing zebra with the job to rebuild the zebra indexes, they are 2 quite different things. However not being able to talk to the database is a fatal error for the rebuild zebra script. The database failing will also cause all sorts of other errors. I would get your tech people to look at your database set up. Something very bad is going wrong there. Chris "Sonia P." <sossolapro@hotmail.com> wrote: Dear all Thanks again for your help. Here is (below) the content of the zebra error file. Would you please have a look at it and tell me if there are things which could explain why zebra-rebuild stops working now and then? There is that DBIconnect error, but I am not sure it's related. And there is no time & day in the error file, so I can't check what happened when zebra rebuild doesn't work properly. (I have removed all the multiple duplicates...) Cheers, Sonia. Wide character in subroutine entry at /usr/share/perl5/MARC/Charset/Table.pm line 96.
