I did not choose to enable SELinux when I installed FC3, so I think I can get around that issue. However, I suppose I could make a soft link from /var/lib/mysql/csl and /var/lib/mysql/cslr to the spot where I actually want the data (for the curious, I want it on a different physical drive--space issues). This still leaves me hoping bulkmarcimport.pl will actually put the data in the correct place. I'll try Stephen's suggestions. Mark [Apologies for my previous email reply syntax deviations.]

Hi Joshua! I have tried to respond below so that you may be able to figure out where I am in the process. I have tried to be somewhat detailed; I hope this is appropriate.

This makes it a bit easier to parse through. See my comments below.
### I understand. [I have /var/lib/mysql/csl and /var/lib/mysql/cslr and wish to relocate them to /csl/anydir1 and /csl/anydir2 ; see below]
### I have done this. [/etc/koha-csl.conf and /etc/koha-cslr.conf as well as /etc/koha-httpd-csl.conf and /etc/httpd-cslr.conf, pointing properly, I think, since I can call up both user interfaces and both admin interfaces on the net at the designated ip adddresses.
### I think I have gotten the initial dual setup done "properly" but, as you say, some customization remains. For me this appears to entail getting koha to import marc records to a dir specified by me [/csl/anydir1 or /csl/anydir2] and getting and koha and/or mysql (maybe just mysql?) to look for the data in the that location specified by me, not in /var/lib/mysql/csl or /var/lib/mysql/cslr as the case may be. There MUST be a config file with these paths or variable to them somewhere; I'm just not sure where to look. Especially since you're running FC3 this is a bad idea (it will really annoy SElinux). In general, I'd recommend keeping the standard database directory that mysql uses.
### There's one other issue that I think is important. When
bulkmarcimport.pl from the /csl/koha/_"csl"_ directory, the data ended up in the /var/lib/mysql/_"cslr"_ directory. "cslr" was the _second_ of the two install routines I did, so this leads me to believe that bulkmarcimport.pl, no matter the dir in which it is executed, is running in the same "context" [?]. What files does bulkmarcimport.pl look at? I suspect that your second install overwrote or appended the
I ran the path variables so a command like the one Stephen suggested might work. You should also make sure that your installation is actually using the right koha.conf file and not another one (check for /etc/koha.conf for instance).
Joshua
### Sincere thanks for your assistance. Mark ###
For instance, afaik Koha will always put the koha.conf file
Just copy that file to wherever you want to store it and update your koha-httpd.conf accordingly.
Hope that helps,
Joshua

Mark, I could be wrong about this (and if I am, I hope someone corrects me quickly!), but if you have two installs, I assume you have
two different paths to Koha: something like /usr/local/koha and /usr/local/koha2. So if you change the PERL5LIB environment variable accordingly, you should be able to control where the data goes, because Koha will grab the appropriate "context" from the
specify. You might do: # export PERL5LIB=/usr/local/koha/intranet/modules to load records in one install, and # export PERL5LIB=/usr/local/koha2/intranet/modules to load records into the other install. You'd need to take out any "use lib "/usr/local/koha/intranet/modules";" statement that you might have added to bulkmarcimport.pl

Thanks for your assistance Stephen. The routine ran fine, but, since
I have two installs I am trying to keep separate, I need a way to designate where the data will go. It appears that the data path defaults to /var/lib/mysql/variablename. I need to designate two separate data paths, preferably not as a subdir of /var/lib/mysql, and have my two instances of KOHA be able to find the right set of data. Is this possible? If so, what do I need to do to implement this change? Sincere thanks, Mark

Mark, could it be that your perl can't find the Koha C4
(Although that usually produces a different error.) Try this:
Before you run "./bulkmarcimport.pl", export the
in /etc. path you directory? directory where
C4 resides: # export PERL5LIB=/usr/local/koha/intranet/modules (that's the normal directory for most installs, change it if yours is different.)
Or if you use bulkmarcimport a lot, add this line to the list of "use" statements at the beginning of the script: use lib "/usr/local/koha/intranet/modules";

I'm getting the following error when attempting to run bulkmarcimport.pl:
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./bulkmarcimport.pl line 10.
It seems like I had a similar problem when I imported records some months ago, but, of course, I do not appear to have documented the solution to it . . . .
Sincere thanks for any assistance.
