Hi Zeno, The suggested sequence worked so now I am no longer encountering the error. I have been been using Linux Mint for quite awhile now so feel very comfortable attempting the install on it. My next challenge once the install works is to try it on Centos 7. Will let you know how this adventure goes. regards, --Daniel On Sat, 25 Feb 2017 15:49:06 +0100, Tajoli Zeno wrote: Hi Daniel, Il 25/02/2017 15:32, Daniel F. Twum ha scritto:

Hi Zeno, Finally I can declare success installing Koha on Linux Mint. Please see attached screenshot. Creating the database was a bit of a challenge since the installer.pl kept timing out. I had to increase Timeout in the /etc/apache2/apache2.conf to myusbpc-XPS-8700 koha_ofosualibrary # grep Timeout /etc/apache2/apache2.conf # Timeout: The number of seconds before receives and sends time out. Timeout 6000 Thanks for your help. regards, --Daniel On Sat, 25 Feb 2017 15:49:06 +0100, Tajoli Zeno wrote: Hi Daniel, Il 25/02/2017 15:32, Daniel F. Twum ha scritto:

Did you "down-grade" MySQL to 5.5 / 5.6 or change to MariaDB? How big is your database, and how much memory was available? An hour and three quarters seems inordinately long, although a lack of multi-core threading might be a cause. Did this spill over into swap? Ref. point for us is that any MySql op that lasts for more than a couple of seconds (with 16 Gigs RAM on reasonably fast 8-core systems) is suspect as being badly coded. Mint, per se, shouldn't be a stumbling point -- it's only a desktop, and should have minimal impact on the underlying Debian/Ubuntu system. Best - Paul
Thanks for your help.
regards, --Daniel

Remeber that your version of Linux Mint uses MySQL 5.7 so check this paragraph:
https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_ubuntu_-_packages#Ubuntu_16.04_...
Generaly speaking use Linux Mint only if you know it very well. Koha is tested on Debian and Ubuntu, we probaly have very little experience on Linux Mint.
