[Koha] Staging of import stalls

[Doug Dearden]

Hi Ed,

I had the same problem.  Take a look at the last import (Home > Tools > Manage Staged MARC Records > Batch 

Figure out the last record in the batch that went in, then edit the import file you are using and remove the record immediately after that one in the file.  It has some kind of problem.  Try again and see if you get further.  It is either that record, or the last one that actually worked, I can't remember exactly which. 

Also, there is a command line tool that you can use to import.   You will find it at /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl 

>From the migration tools subdirectory enter: perl bulkmarcimport.pl and you will get the syntax and parameter info.  It has a test mode you can run against the file.

Best,

Doug

Good Morning All

 

I am trying stage my MARC import data but it keeps stalling. I broke it
down into 4 individual files of about 4000 records each. But it still
stalls at about 15%. Has anyone had this issue? Can it be done from the
terminal instead of through the browser? Every time I start the process
it pins my cpu at 95 to 100% which is why it is probably stalling but
not sure why.

 

My Config

----------------------------------

Ubuntu 8.1

1.5gb memory

Pentium 4 - 2.5ghz dual core

Koha 3.0

NoZebra

Basic LAMP install

 

Any thoughts would be great.

 

Thanks

Ed
