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. 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...

Please bear with me -- I had no luck sorting out my search speed problem, so did a packet apt-get remove, install (not purge.) All went extremely well, OPAC reported "under maintenance", staff admin (logging in with install name) upgraded the 3.05 database (new as requested by /usr/share/koha/k318-db-request.txt), and both sites are delivering proper pages through Apache (prefork+itk.)
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.
k318-koha@hood:/usr/sbin$ koha-start-zebra k318 Invalid option: --user (only works for root) /.../ Starting Zebra server for k318 Invalid option: --user (only works for root) /.../ Something went wrong starting Zebra for k318.
k318-koha is a valid user (non sudoer) with pw generated by Koha. I can start Zebra as root, no problem, but then:
k318-koha@hood:/usr/sbin$ koha-rebuild-zebra -v -f k318 [N.B. not 'sudo'] k318-koha is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported. Something went wrong rebuilding biblio indexes for k318
and I have *not* tried reindexing as root -- ISTR dire warnings not to do so on this list :)
I've looked at Bug 13396 and koha-conf.xml complies.
I've tried sudo service koha-common restart * Restarting Koha ILS koha-common /.../ Zebra already stopped for instance k318. SIP server for k318 not running. * Error: Indexer not running for k318

but I'm not sure where '-zebra' gets concatenated to the user.
Many thanks -- Paul
