[Koha] Response to Mark Alexander - suggestion

[Katrin Fischer]

Hi Jack,

what do you mean by 'added a new library to the database' - just another 
library in the same installation?

Try changing your patron's home library to the new library. If you 
didn't yet, use a real patron account with permissions (you always 
should). Try if that makes a difference. Maybe something like 
SearchMyLibraryFirst is active?

Also look into the Zebra indexing as Bob suggested first. It sounds 
indeed like your index didn't work when you tried to fix it. Try with -v 
to see if there are any errors.

The search would always query the original database and not the new branch. In the database I was able to locate the records with an SQL query. I attempted to run the koha-rebuild-zebra library attempting to get the collection updated. Now I have lost the entire collection. However the database is still complete in mariadb.
