[Koha-devel] Creating New Pages in Koha - second request

[Richard Forristall]

Chris,
Thanks for the reminder - I remember you indicated this in a previous post.  How does one ensure this is running as my kohauser?

 
Thanks,
 
Rick

I stand corrected. :-)

> I haven't created the process to actually run the zebra reindex yet. Now that I have the new page available, that's the next challenge.  I'm assuming I can use the perl system() method to run the "opt/koha/bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -a -b -k -reset" from within a .pl file, that is after setting the KOHA_CONF and PERL5LIB environment variables first.  My plan is to have links on the tools page.  One would be a link to a .pl file that would run the necessary steps to perform the zebra reindex then provide feedback to the librarian.

Don't forget that rebuild_zebra.pl must be run as your kohauser.

Kind Regards,
Chris
