[Koha] Fwd: Re: bulkmarcimport

[Bob Ewart]

I found the problem.
I had created a framework for archives, but didn't set the MARC structure.

MARC Bibliographic framework test should have caught that, but didn't.

Staged MARC record management did manage to import a 5 record batch, but
fairly consistently went into an endless loop.

Once I set the MARC structure for the framework, it worked.
