[Koha] Re: Problems making the Z3950 work

[Matthew Metzger]

Hello Chris,

thanks for responding so quickly. Yes, the daemon is running. I run "ps 
-ef | grep z3950" and get:

www-data 30068     1  0 01:38 pts/2    00:00:00 su -c 
/usr/local/koha/intranet/scripts/z3950daemon/z3950-daemon-shell.sh - 
www-data
www-data 30069 30068  0 01:38 pts/2    00:00:01 /usr/bin/perl 
/usr/local/koha/intranet/scripts/z3950daemon/processz3950queue 
/usr/local/koha/log
www-data 31749 10502 99 03:18 ?        00:00:01 /usr/bin/perl 
/usr/local/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/z3950/search.pl


"Still ?? requests to go" is exactly the error I'm getting. But it 
appears that I am running the daemon.
thanks for your help.
