Re: [Koha] Trying to figure out if I have Plack running right
I recommend that you create an instance xxx and pick the generated xxx.conf Apache config, and use it as a basis for rewriting your instance's files. Looking forward to hear about the results! El mié., 6 de noviembre de 2019 21:02, Doug Dearden <dearden@sarsf.org> escribió:
Hey Tomas,
I did install using packages, but here’s what happened. I had Koha running on a server, and the version running was a couple of years old. Our librarian asked me to upgrade to 19.05 and I did that. Right after upgrading the server hardware failed. I had another linux server running a couple of Apache sites unrelated to Koha. I set the apt sources for Koha stable main and installed Koha using the packages. I then restored using the database backups. It’s been a few months so I don’t remember the order of things but I got the schema updated and everything working on version 19.05.01. I think I copied the backed up versions of the various apache conf files, which may be where things went wrong. I do see /etc/koha/apache-shared-opac-plack.conf and /etc/koha/apache-shared-intranet-plack.conf on the disk.
I have now added the Include directives to the appropriate conf files. Still something wrong though. BTW I have another instance named archive. Plack seems to be working now on that instance, but still has problems on main intranet.

This is weird, did you install the koha-common package on Debian, or did a manual install using perl Makefile.PL?
Your files should include:
Include /etc/koha/apache-shared-opac-plack.conf
and
Include /etc/koha/apache-shared-intranet-plack.conf
respectively.

Hi Doug,
The koha-plack --enable command did not work. Can you post the result of the following command: $ sudo grep Include /etc/apache2/sites-available/main.conf

Hi Doug
When I run "sudo koha-plack --start <instance>" I get back: [FAIL] Error: Plack already running for <instance>: failed!
So it looks like Plack is running.
I did go back and restart things, doing: sudo koha-plack -stop <instance> sudo koha-plack -start <instance> sudo service apache2 restart
I'm not sure what commands you really executed, but if your Koha instance is called "abc" (for example) the commands would be:
1. First enable Plack:
sudo koha-plack --enable abc
2. Only then you can start Plack:
sudo koha-plack -start abc

Hey Tomas, Good tip. I did as you suggested, and there were a number of additional lines in the <config> section of the koha-conf.xml file, including a couple of lines about the plack config. I modified the config section of my main koha-conf.xml to match, changing the file paths and other references where appropriate. I also took my three apache conf files and combined them into one with the three virtual host definitions in one file. Plack enabled, started, and is showing on the About page. The response time to look up a patron (which is what started this in the first place) seems much faster, a second or two compared to eight to ten seconds before. I still need feedback from our librarian but I think everything is running as it should. Thank you Tomas, Jonathan and Michael.
