Hello,

This is getting old, but if I remember well, in Koha's xml config file, 
you have 2 sockets that can be used for zebra: via TCP or Unix. Try 
using only one (or the other). Looks like it fixed it for me, hopefully 
it will do the same for you.

Take care,

Joel


Below is the koha-conf.xml snippet:

<yazgfs>
<!-- [scheme:]host[:port][/databaseName] -->
<!-- scheme: tcp, ssl, unix, http, sru -->
<!-- can run all servers on tcp, but the unix socket is faster -->

<listen id="biblioserver" 
 >unix:/var/run/koha36/zebradb/bibliosocket</listen>
<listen id="authorityserver" 
 >unix:/var/run/koha36/zebradb/authoritysocket</listen>
<!-- uncomment these lines and comment out the above if running on 
MSWin32 -->
<!--
<listen id="biblioserver" >tcp:localhost:9998/bibliosocket</listen>
<listen id="authorityserver" >tcp:localhost:9999/authoritysocket</listen>
-->
