[Koha] zebra shutting down - no search

[Bortel, Gary]

Scott--
I don't know if it is related, but I just upgraded from 17.05 --> 17.11 and immediately started having issues with logrotate and Zebra not starting when koha-common started/restarted or after logrotation. This is a multi-tenant, package install running on Ubuntu 16.04. Things worked fine for the first instance on the machine, but Zebra and logrotate failed for the remaining installations. Additionally, I received an error report that logrotate was failing at the postrotate script.

I have had issues with the new koha-zebra commands in the past when on 17.05, so that was a likely place to start. In the end, I went into /etc/logrotate.d/koha-common and /etc/init.d/koha-common and replaced all instances of koha-zebra command with the deprecated versions (i.e. koha-start-zebra, koha-restart-zebra, koha-stop-zebra) and all has been well since...

I still seem to be having some issues with logrotate and the zebra service starting up....

I have tried both of the options discussed in bug #
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=16885

Has there been a good / reliable fix to this issue ? I was hoping that an upgrade to  17.11 might be the solution...but sadly, I still seem to have this issue on 2 of my 3 Kha installs....
