OK, just to clarify, that command doesn't restart anything. It just forces everything to be indexed from scratch, that's where the confusion was coming in. You should be getting sent emails if something is going wrong with the regular index procedure, but if local mail hasn't been properly configured on your server, you might not be seeing them. It would be worth putting an alias in for the root user so that it goes to a real person. To do this: 1. edit /etc/aliases 2. add a line like: "root: your@email.address", save 3. run the 'newaliases' command This'll mean that you get sent any errors when zebra rebuilds. To see what's there now, run 'sudo mail'. Type the number of the message to read it, 'q' will exit and '?' will provide a small amount of help. If there's something there, maybe it'll give a clue. -- Robin Sheat Catalyst IT Ltd. ✆ +64 4 803 2204 GPG: 5957 6D23 8B16 EFAB FEF8 7175 14D3 6485 A99C EB6D _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha
