Vanda, Just out of interest, did you choose UNIMARC when the package installation was performed ? I did and I'm facing the same search problems as you. I note the koha-conf.xml file seems to have a lot of MARC21 references. Not sure if this needs to change to UNIMARC. This was just the template file that was generated through the installation. I tried the koha-rebuild-zebra -f -a -b -v $instance approach recommended but that didn't fix the search problems. if you want to know where it is just use
which koha-rebuild-zebra

Hello Ian, We are still unable to solve our problem. We have done everything we were told to do, including what you mention in your message. Unfortunately nothing worked. And yes, we chose UNIMARC when the package installation was performed. My computer collegues say that we also have some references to MARC21 in the the koha-conf.xml file and apparently it is supposed to be that way. Still loking for an answer...

Hi Vanda, when using UNIMARC you will have to choose it in 2 places, maybe one was missed? Before the instance is created, you need to tell Koha that it will be using UNIMARC. You can do so by changing ZEBRA_MARC_FORMAT="marc21" in /etc/koha/koha-sites.conf to "unimarc". This will affect the indexing configuration and can be the cause of why your search might not work, when the records itself look correct. Then, when running the web installer, you also need to make sure UNIMARC is selected there. This will affect which cataloguing frameworks (MARC field and subfield definitions) are installed. Hope this helps, Katrin On 17.02.2017 13:19, vanda koha wrote:

Hi Katrin, Thanks for your tips. We already have done that. It must be something else that we are missing... Regards, Vanda 2017-02-19 22:08 GMT+00:00 Katrin <katrin.fischer.83@web.de>:

Katrin, This was my problem. Search wasn't working because there was some confusion between UNIMARC & MARC21 during the installation. The option to choose the flavour is presented with the koha-create $instance & koha 1st time web installation. Regards, Ian On 19/02/2017 22:08, Katrin wrote:
