[Koha] Reindexing Zebra Because there are no results found in opac and intranet search

[Mark Tompsett]

Greetings,

Check the permissions on your directories. They shouldn't be root. They are 
generally of the form {instance}-koha.
For example, we have a kohademo instance on a server. Perhaps something as 
simple as:
    $ sudo chown -vR kohademo-koha.kohademo-koha /var/lib/koha/kohademo
may fix it. CHANGE kohademo TO YOUR INSTANCE NAME.

Check your permissions.

$ cd /var/lib/koha
$ ls -laR
