https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=32059 --- Comment #1 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer@bsz-bw.de> --- I feel like the instructions are not wrong in itself, the instructions work, they just assume that in a package installation you run the 'sudo koha-shell instance' command first, no matter which script you run. Also it depends, if you are not using a package based installation, but using tarball, you'd have to run them under the koha-user without having the koha-shell command option. This might be better for the manual instead of altering all the man pages. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=32059 --- Comment #3 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer@bsz-bw.de> --- I agree we should document, just thinking that the auto-generated perl-doc might not be the right place. As this is dependent on how you installed Koha, notes in the wiki or manual in a general 'how to' chapter might better. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

This request is pretty old now, but I'm taking it on in my quest to join the Documentation team's efforts. Being a system administrator myself in my regular work, I'm familiar with the content. I think that general guidance for Perl scripts would have a place in the Koha Manual, in the section called 'Cron jobs and daemons': https://koha-community.org/manual/latest/en/html/cron_jobs.html#cron-jobs-an.... This whole section could be refined to better fit how Koha is typically installed and used these days. My thoughts include: - renaming the section 'Scripts, cron jobs, and daemons' - clarifying the ad-hoc and scheduled usage of Perl scripts, that is, through the 'koha-perl' command and in cron jobs - making all references in that section consistent Would that satisfy the original request? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
