I did a quick look over the code.

If your searchengine is set to Elasticsearch, then when ModZebra() is called it tries to index the record in the background at that time (at least that's the way it reads to me, I could be wrong).

Also if you have the BiblioAddsAuthorities preference set, then ModBiblio calls BiblioAutoLink() to update authorities links, which will create an authority record if the AutoCreateAuthorities preference is set, which calls AuthorityMarc::AddAuthority(), which calls ModZebra().

The error to me looks like it's trying to contact the search engine to add/update an authority record, and can't find it. But you have to have a lot of system preferences set just so to get that far. So I'm not sure that's what's happening.

Hi All – I have a script which uses the ModBiblio function (i.e. https://perldoc.koha-community.org/19.11.x/C4/Biblio.html#ModBiblio). I haven’t used the script for a while, and we’ve upgraded to 19.11 since I ran it last. Running the script today and I’m getting the following “error”:

oAuth error: Database unavailable (109) authorities Bib-1

I’m seeing this 4-5 times for each bibilo I’ve updated. The update does work. The record looks fine in staff/OPAC, it’s findable etc. I’ve only updated 10 records on our test server, and before I update any more I’m just wondering why I’m getting this message and it will have an adverse effect on our indexing/database if I just ignore and update the reamining 6000+ records?

Any advice would be most welcome!

Cheers, Stephen
