OK, so I dug further and do indeed find cron running and can see the jobs executing via /var/log/syslog. It appears that everything is working EXCEPT that the zebra indexing updates aren't working correctly. I see the line "Uncomment the following line if you do not want to use the koha-index-daemon integration" and the line following that is commented out...should it be? How do I know if I'm using the koha-index-daemon or not? As it stands right now items that are added do not show in search results and items removed continue to show, until I run a zebra rebuild manually.
Thanks!

That is surprising. If anacron isn't present, the normal cron takes over via run-parts, as for example: > 25 6 * * * root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts > --report /etc/cron.daily ) In other words, it should be possible to run your cron jobs without anacron. There must be something else missing. Maybe the cron daemon hasn't been started; you can see if it is running using: ps auxfw | egrep cron Or maybe it hasn't been installed; this can be checked using: dpkg -S /usr/sbin/cron or aptitude search "~i cron" _______________________________________________ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org [email protected] https://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha
