I recently messed up an import or two as well.... http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.koha/38651 wound up clearing the database and re-importing (correctly...1 {single} time). After that .... all good.... -S On Wed, Jul 15, 2015 at 8:55 AM, Jesse Lambertson <jlambertson@sqcc.org> wrote:

Katrin,

Thank you for your reply.

With the first batch, I DID import multiple times as I fixed things.

I reversed the import, but this does not clean the previously imported records out. I didn't know this would happen. Like I said, I am learning a great deal about how Koha works even as I am setting it up (with some assistance from a local system admin).

Might this be one of those situations where I need to work with my admin people and rebuild my indexing?

Thanks again,

Hi Jesse,

did you import your data multiple times maybe? If you have used the tools for importing you should be able to see if the records were added as new or matched with an existing record on importing.

One thing to keep in mind: If you want to use matching rules for your imports, you have to make sure that the data in the catalog is all indexed correctly before you import the next batch.

Hello everyone,

I am experiencing strange things upon upload of records to my koha instance. Our instance is in testing mode and is not live yet.

Debian 7 - Koha 3.20 on a local server.

When I do a search, say, "Oman history," or "fishes - Arabian Sea" my results list returns with records SANS holdings as well as the same records WITH holdings.

Am I missing something in my upload stage or is there a way to "hide" results that have no holdings (952 and all subfields)?

Getting a bunch of duplicate records really clutters my search results. Is there a solution to this issue?

Thank you in advance,

I am learning a ton with each new koha interaction.

Jesse
