Re: [Koha] Bulk Deletion of Authorities Not Linked to a Title
Hello, Tim! In our latest exchange, on 16 June 2022 at 09:01 [JST], I received this: Were you using the Koha shell? As a super user type koha-shell
library. Change library with the name used for your Koha instance.

What is the Koha shell? I just type in the command line interface (bash shell) this command: /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/remove_unused_authorities.pl asdlib "asdlib" is our instantiation. I did not miss the instantiation in my original question or the follow-up but maybe , so what did we miss? A switch, e.g., "-i" (for instantiation), perhaps? Does this work only on Zebra? Is there an analogue for ElasticSearch? Do we have to edit the PERL script? Does the PERL script have to be compiled through the PERL engine or another PERL compiler? Does it run through an interpreter instead? Do we also have to set up a devbox, which I guess is an abbreviation of developer box? What is that? How do we do so? -- よろしくお願いします。 -- Charles.

If you don't have administrator access, you'll have to have someone else do it. If you do, you can type 'sudo koha-shell asdlib' then enter your password. Then use '/usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/remove_unused_authorities.pl -t' to do a test run and '/usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/remove_unused_authorities.pl -c' to confirm you really want to remove unused authorities. They can take a while. The test runs longer because it outputs information about all authorities. On 6/15/22 7:48 PM, Charles Kelley wrote:
