Hi all,
I just successfully migrated my koha system to a VPS (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64-bit + Koha 3.18.06), and restored the database via mysql.
I'm in the process of activating the Z39.50 server and I noticed something odd (again!). When I ran koha-restart-zebra, the terminal returned the following:
"Zebra does not appear to have been running for instance library" | "Starting Zebra server for instance library".
This is odd, because each time I ran koha-restart-zebra, it returned the same message. I am interpreting this output as zebra not running at all, so now I'm a bit confused ( as OPAC and Staff search are working fine, though I haven't catalogued or imported any new records since the migration). So, I ran
ps aux | grep zebra
and it returned the following output
koha 12183 0.0 0.0 10892 936 pts/0 S+ 10:10 0:00 grep zebra
library+ 26249 0.0 0.0 19176 248 ? S Apr28 0:00 daemon --name=library-koha-zebra --pidfiles=/var/run/koha/library/ --errlog=/var/log/koha/library/zebra-error.log --stdout=/var/log/koha/library/zebra.log --output=/var/log/koha/library/zebra-output.log

I also ran
ps -f -C zebrasrv
which returned the following output
UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD
library+ 26250 26249 0 Apr28 ? 00:00:00 zebrasrv -v none,fatal,warn -f /etc/koha/sites/library/koha-conf.xml
Is there anything fishy going on with the above outputs? I modified the koha-conf.xml file on April 28th, but have since made sure that that file is correctly edited (April 29th).
Do the above mean that Zebra is indeed running?
Thanks everyone!
