Thanks, Mark. My problem is that I'm not getting *any* output at all from the index run. Despite the output on the screen, I get no records in any of the zebra index directories. So I've got to have something even more basic not working quite right. I just have not been able to track it down yet. I did, just for test sake, try it as root as well. Nothing that way either. My install of Koha was from the tarball. For Zebra, I used the CentOS rpm's. This is all on RHEL6. Tomorrow I'll try compiling Zebra to see if that might be where the problem lies. Since Koha works but Zebra does not, that will be my focus. Tom On 10/3/13 4:14 PM, Mark Tompsett wrote:
Greetings,
Thanks, but the user "tanturprod" is the one doing the indexing and it does have permissions to write to that directory. Paul's example comes from a tarball installation. This is why he has koha as user and group. You didn't mention how you installed koha (apt-get install koha-common, tarball, git) either.
However, his example does lead to the point that the issue is not just directory permissions alone, but also the files in the directory. If one of your files has gotten the wrong permissions, a rebuild/reindex won't work, because it can't recreate/overwrite that file. And if you recreate it as root, then reindexing won't work on a forward basis.
In my /var/lib/koha/library/biblios directory I have 4 subdirectories: key register shadow tmp You only showed register in your email. I have a package installation. Your path suggests a tarball installation. You only showed one directory. Did you check all the subdirectories?
Just some further thoughts.
GPML, Mark Tompsett
