Occasionally I have had zebra not wanting to restart, but restarting the computer has always worked for me, as in, turning it off, go get a coffee and start it up again. I love easy solutions, especially if they give me a chance to get a coffee :-) Marty ________________________________ From: Sonia P. <sossolapro@hotmail.com> To: koha@lists.katipo.co.nz Sent: Thursday, February 2, 2012 9:35:12 PM Subject: Re: [Koha] Search / index problem, help... ? Many thanks for your help! Clearing the zebra indexes fixed the problem (but then I couldn't restart zebra, which took lots of IRC support to solve). Cheers, Sonia.

To: sossolapro@hotmail.com CC: koha@lists.katipo.co.nz Have you tried clearing the zebra indexes first and then rebuild the index? For clearing the zebra index:# Zebra Indexes $ zebraidx -c /etc/koha/zebradb/zebra-biblios.cfg -g iso2709 -d biblios init $ zebraidx -c /etc/koha/zebradb/zebra-authorities.cfg -g iso2709 -d authorities init (It is possible your zebra-biblios.cfg and zebra-authorities.cfg live somwhere else, the above location is where mine are) After that, restart zebra and re-index. (rebuild_zebra.pl -b -w) I hope this helps. I have had similar issues after loading a database from a different library to test. If I do not clear the zebra index, anything from the previous library will cause errors.

So I have searched in the biblioitem database as well (biblionumber and biblioitemnumber), and these two numbers (which cause errors) doesn't exist. I don't get it... As for the <instancename>, I don't think we run multiple instances of Koha on the same server (why would we?). I have tried a few command lines like that, and it didn't change anything. I don't know what the problem is. I don't know why these biblios would cause any problem if they have been deleted. What can I do? Cheers, Sonia.

As for the zebra reindex, I am sorry it's a stupid question, but what's that <instancename> you mention in the command line?
I think the assumption is probably that you are running Koha installed from the debian package, which allows multiple instances of Koha on the same server.
If you are not running the package, you should be fine with -b -r -v i guess.
