Koha zebra indexing stops every day morning.
Hello, I am using Koha 16.05.04.000 version on Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS. Problem is that, each day morning OPAC searching stops. We checked the status of Koha-common service. Its active. But after restarting koha-common, everything starts working fine. Checked koha logs files for any errors. But no errors logged in log files. I am not able to understand from where do I start to troubleshoot the problem. Kindly help me to resolve this problem. Thanks & Regards, Sandeep Ulhalkar

I ran into this problem, too. It might be this bug: https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=16885 I am running the latest 16.05, and the problem persisted despite the update having applied the patch described in the bug to /usr/sbin/koha-stop-zebra. To work around this problem, I used the suggestion from Radek Siman to disable anacron (while logged in as root): 1) open /etc/cron.d/anacron and add a # to turn off the line starting with 30 7 * * * ....anacron... 2) mv /usr/sbin/anacron /usr/sbin/anacron-temporarily-renamed
Hello, Thanks, I was running this issue too. Is stopping anacron the best workaround please? Maybe is there more safe way to fix it? Thanks, Le 19/12/2016 à 15:05, Mark Alexander a écrit :

Hi, it's not about stopping anacron only, but about using simple cron deamon instead of it. I can confirm that one of libraries where I'm providing Koha services suffered from this bug. After we started not to use anacron, everything goes well although we had Koha down several times a week. Now it's running smoothly for 3 months.
