Hi David and Indranil Thank you very much, this works! Interestingly addin variable PERL5LIB was never before necessary when I ran "bulkmarcimport.pl" (and I do this a lot).

hi

add that path to your PERL5LIB env var

$ export PERL5LIB=/usr/share/koha/lib $ /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl -b -m marcxml -framework=ABC -file TITEL.marcxml -v 2

Hi Michael

From the snippet shared by you, it seems that you are missing:

export PERL5LIB="/usr/share/koha/lib"

Hi

I am running a fresh installation of Koha 22.05.04 on Debian 11.

I am trying to load some data using "bulkmarcimport.pl":

"Script.pm" seems to be there:

How can I get script "bulkmarcimport.pl" to actually run?

could it be that you were executing the command with a different user?

No, I definitely have always run the command as Linux user "root". The only difference I am aware of is this time I was first running the command under Koha 22.05.

hi Michael i think it's always been necessary to have the PERL5LIB set correctly

Are you by chance running the command in the root shell?

Yes I am, I always did (and it worked up to Koha 21.11). For now it worked using: # export KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/sites/library/koha-conf.xml # export PERL5LIB=/usr/share/koha/lib # /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl -b -m marcxml -framework=ABC -file TITEL.marcxml -v 2

You should always run it inside koha-shell

OK - next time I'll try: $ sudo koha-shell -c "/usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl -b -m marcxml -framework=ABC -file TITEL.marcxml -v 2" library Unfortunately https://perldoc.koha-community.org/misc/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.html does not give the correct information how to run this script.

Yeah, the docs are really generic, and there are several ways to install Koha. Packages (i.e. having koha-shell) is one of them. Please file an issue on the manual's project so we document it better.

I have now filed https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=32059 (How to run scripts found under https://perldoc.koha-community.org/)

Regarding the fact it worked before, have you changed the server? It is not working because of the lack of some environment variables being set, which is usually the case when we reinstall on a new server and forgot all the tweaks we did over time. I've been there, many times heh.

No, it was a completely new server. I have done this many times on many different new servers in the past and it always worked. But yes, missing environment variables are a pain.

Regardless, running things as root can cause trouble with logs and lock files permissions. Some default cronjobs can fail to run because of that, hence the recommendation. There are also security concerns but that's out of the scope here.

Since it also worked using the command "koha-shell" that's how I'll do it in the future: sudo koha-shell -c "/usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/bulkmarcimport.pl -b -m marcxml -framework=frameworkcode -file file.marcxml -v 2" instancename Best wishes: Michael -- Geschäftsführer · Diplombibliothekar BBS, Informatiker eidg.
