Hi Tom, if everything is set up correctly you can switch back and forth using the searchengine system preference. Hope this helps, Katrin On 17.03.20 17:08, Tom Hanstra wrote:
I have managed to get elasticsearch running (thanks Thomas!) and it seems to have indexed many of my records (though there were quite a few errors and messages received during the indexing process).
Now, how do I best check to see what is in the Elasticsearch index? Is there a way to test or at least count the number of records indexed?
And then how do I switch Koha from using Zebra to using Elasticsearch? Do I have to "turn off" Zebra in some way and turn on Elasticsearch? Or is that supposed to be switched automatically?
Thanks in advance for any tips that might help!

Hello,
We use debian, but are installing from sources. Here are my notes about ElasticSearch:
Get a recent version of Java
Install ES from upstream repositoruies
Configure Koha <-> ES via $KOHA_CONF
Install lucene plugin:
/usr/share/elasticsearch/bin/elasticsearch-plugin install analysis-icu
Install following packages:
libcatmandu-marc-perl libcatmandu-store-elasticsearch-perl
systemctl enable elasticsearch
restart server (or restart all koha related services)
rebuild index:
/home/koha/Current/bin/search_tools/rebuild_elasticsearch.pl -v
/home/koha/Current/bin/search_tools/rebuild_elasticsearch.pl –delete -v -a -b -p 4
Best regards
In the documentation I'm reading about the use of elasticsearch, all information is completely Debian specific, including both the use of kohadevbox and debian software installations of the koha-elasticsearch metapackage.
For those of us who don't use Debian (yes, there are some of us), is

any documentation of more complete ElasticSearch setup commands and information of what is inside of the koha-elasticsearch metapackage and other supporting software? I'd rather not have to reverse engineer those pieces from Debian, but the documentation seems to assume installation has one or the other of the above Debian based packages.
I'm assuming that Koha can work with Elasticsearch on any Linux distribution, with the right setup. If so, can someone help fill in the gaps between Debian and the other Linuxes.
Thanks, Tom
