<div dir="ltr"><div>Looks like `koha-start-zebra k318` is one of the command-line tools provided by the koha-common package. I'm guessing the recommended way to use this too is to run it as root, and it will then sudo to the k318-koha user to perform the task inside the tool.<br></div>Seems there is an error in zebra though. There should be a way to start zebra with more logging, but I'm not that familiar with the command-line tools. Hopefully someone else knows more...<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jan 21, 2015 at 11:42 AM, Paul A <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:paul.a@navalmarinearchive.com" target="_blank">paul.a@navalmarinearchive.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Please bear with me -- I had no luck sorting out my search speed problem, so did a packet apt-get remove, install (not purge.)

But I have a problem with Zebra. Does 'instancename-koha' really have to be a sudoer? If there's a possible quick fix I'll try it, if not I'll start over.<br>

k318-koha@hood:/usr/sbin$ koha-start-zebra k318<br>
Invalid option: --user (only works for root)<br>

Something went wrong starting Zebra for k318.<br>
<br>
k318-koha is a valid user (non sudoer) with pw generated by Koha. I can start Zebra as root, no problem, but then:<br>
<br>
k318-koha@hood:/usr/sbin$ koha-rebuild-zebra -v -f k318 [N.B. not 'sudo']<br>
k318-koha is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported.<br>
Something went wrong rebuilding biblio indexes for k318<br>
<br>
and I have *not* tried reindexing as root -- ISTR dire warnings not to do so on this list :)<br>
<br>
I've looked at Bug 13396 and koha-conf.xml complies.<br>
<br>
I've tried sudo service koha-common restart<br>

/.../ Zebra already stopped for instance k318.<br>
