[Koha] switching from 'standard' to 'dev'

[Brendan Gallagher]

All -

I have created the new symlink for the koha site  (it appears in the / 
etc/apache2/sites-available)...

I did not see a web-installer when navigating to the koha- 
intranet....  should I see one when I make the reinstall from standard  
to dev  (I was already on Koha 3.00.00.107)...



Made all my changes in the record.abs indexers and I am now rerunning  
the zebra-indexer.  (the indexer is showing the correct directories in  
kohaclone like it did before)

--I will let you all know what I see after the indexer completes.

Further response in message below.

Thanks,
Brendan

I have some kind of idea --

Yes - same for everything....

Those are the directories that I identified....
