[Koha] koha-rebuild-zebra error

[Aswin Unnikrishnan]

Hi guys , i have solved this issue now. Apparently , the environment
variable ${ZEBRA_LANGUAGE} was not set to 'en' by default, instead it was
set to blank. so in  my zebra-biblios-dom.cfg and zebra-authorities-dom.cfg
, the profilePath was incorrectly set. After changing that manually, zebra
indexing is working and im able to search from OPAC

Thanks
