Hi Aida,

 

this seems strange to me. Unfortunately I don’t have time right now to dig 
deeper into this. Maybe someone else could help?

 

Did you truncate zebraqueue? No idea if this is relevant to the problem though.

 

Best regards,

Anke

Hello Anke, 

 

yes, I had to go back and rebuild it because I forgot to do it the first time. 
I used 

 

sudo koha-rebuild-zebra -f -v instancename 

 

but they are still there: when I go to Authorities > Search main heading, I get 
a list of 580 entries. Some of them are personal names, some are topical terms 
though none of them are marked as such, only as Default. I'm not sure why they 
weren't removed.

Hi Aida,

 

good to know that it worked well. As to the autorities, if you also truncated 
the auth_header table they should be gone. What you see might be the Zebra 
index entries – did you rebuild the Zebra index (or if you use ElasticSearch, I 
suppose the index has to be rebuilt as well after deleting the records).

 

Best regards,

Anke

Betreff: Re: [Koha] Deleting biblios and items

 

Hello Anke, 

 

thank you for the directions; I have followed them and have managed to remove 
all records. When I run an authority search, I get a list of all of them, 
though they are now lacking a heading type (it is now marked as "Default"). Is 
it possible to bulk remove all of them from search results as well or will I 
need to delete them one by one? 

 

The ones that were not attached to records have a Delete option, but the few 
that were have only an Edit option which leads to a "The authority record you 
requested does not exist" note. 

 

(Must also remember to uncheck AutoCreateAuthorities as that caused me to have 
multiple copies of authorities (e.g. thesis advisors, as well as subjects and 
index terms). Lesson learned the hard way!)

Hi,

your_koha_library in this case means the database name. This is typically 
"koha_<instancename>". If you open MySQL (before the "use" step), you can list 
your database(s) with "show databases;" to see the exact name.

When everything is done, don't forget to set the Foreign Key check back to 1.
You can leave MySQL by entering "quit", then the prompt will change back to the 
one you see when logged in as the linux root user.

I recommend also to create a database dump as a backup before these activities 
in case anything goes wrong and you want to restore the database.

Best regards,
Anke
