Created attachment 109632 [details] [review] [review] Bug 8437: Exclude export.pl from plack

When attempting to download large files from Koha plack can timeout

Excluding the script from plack is a simple fix until we have a more permanent fix for this issue.

To test: 1 - Try to export your entire DB from Tools->Export 2 - If big enough, it fails 3 - Apply patch, copy changes to /etc/koha/apache-shared-intranet-plack.conf 4 - Restart all the things 5 - Repeat export, it succeeds

My test plan: 0. Using koha-testing-docker 1. cp debian/templates/apache-shared-intranet-plack.conf /etc/koha/apache-shared-intranet-plack.conf 2. enable "backup_db_via_tools" in /etc/koha/sites/kohadev/koha-conf.xml 3. echo 'flush_all' | nc -q 1 memcached 11211 4. service apache2 restart 5. koha-plack --restart kohadev 6. Go to http://localhost:8081/cgi-bin/koha/tools/export.pl 7. Note "Unfortunately, no backups are available."

So that's not going to work... but I have another idea.

My test plan: 0. Using koha-testing-docker 1. cp debian/templates/apache-shared-intranet-plack.conf /etc/koha/apache-shared-intranet-plack.conf 2. Point koha-testing-docker at a database with a large number of biblios (e.g. 40,000 biblios) 3. echo 'flush_all' | nc -q 1 memcached 11211 4. restart_all 5. Go to http://localhost:8081/cgi-bin/koha/tools/export.pl 6. Click "Don't export items" 7. Click "Export bibliographic records" 8. Note after about 5 seconds that a download for koha.mrc starts. Perfect. Cheers, Nick. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
