Hi Jason I did it as you instructed to note all the information output to the terminal. I was able to fix the main errors (two actually) and at the second run, all went rather smoothly and I could display the login window. Still some issues to be fixed through library maintenance with some perl scripts, which I believe might be the source of the OPAC still not returning search results on the catalog. For example I had messages like this one: Upgrade to 19.06.00.018 done (Bug 11529: Add medium, subtitle and part information to biblio table) NOTE: misc/batchRebuildBiblioTables.pl should be run to populate the fields introduced in bug 11529. It may take some time for larger databases.
I understand that either I should be able to log in as staff administrator to perform that task OR get into a koha shell to run that script. Is that correct? I am now trying to find how to reset the superlibrarian password to be able to log in to perform that maintenance. Quynh ================= M.
