hi yasterday some one asking

( asking about is it indexing records an error in koha 3.0 . 3.0.1  3.0.2 3.0.3 and will fixed in future versions i think any integrated system install with default indexing records not to run or set up supplement programme to make that ) any one of liblime profs have an answer becouse it's so important .....

Koha relies on lots of supplementary programs, Apache, Mysql, Perl .. to name but a few. cron is not something new, it has been in linux and unix and bsd and others for decades. cron is used to schedule tasks to be run at a set time, in this instance to run rebuild_zebra.pl, which updates zebra's indexes. (Coincidentally zebra is another program Koha relies on.) cron is also used to schedule things like the fines and overdue scripts. I seriously suggest learning about cron if you wish to run a linux server, it is used extensively by lots of programs that require tasks to be run at certain times, like rotating logfiles, syncing clocks, etc. Chris
