Whats the error? I bet its missing the path to the C4 modules

No. It isnt run as part of the upgrade, because it only needs to be
run in special circumstances, when coming from a pre 3.4.x version to
a 3.6.x, and take a long time potentially.

"Koha 3.4.x or later  no longer stores items in biblio records.
If you are upgrading from an older version ou will need to do the
following two steps, they can take a long time (several hours) to
complete for large databases

 misc/maintenance/remove_items_from_biblioitems.pl --run
 misc/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -r
"

You need to run these as the user that runs rebuild_zebra normally
(check your cron if you are unsure) and need to set the paths.

For instance on my machine if I was using a package installed from the tarball

sudo -u koha PERL5LIB=/usr/share/koha/lib KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha-conf.xml
perl misc/maintenance/remove_items_from_biblioitems.pl --run

If I installed from the packages (the best way) (but I think you used
the tarball?)
sudo koha-upgrade-to-3.4 instancename
