Thanks for the information Ben. Where would I go to look at the 
config.metabib_field entries to pull out examples of the xpath entries for 
review? I am still learning the in depth aspects of the Evergreen system.

2.4.4-2.5.4/2.6.1

Hi Jesse,

I think the problem point seems to be:   ERROR:  invalid XPath expression

I would take a look at your config.metabib_field entries and check for any 
customization that have been made to the existing entries or the addition of 
new metabib entries.  We encountered similar errors as well during our 
reingests because of bad browse_xpath entries (discussions in IRC starting 
around here: http://irc.evergreen-ils.org/evergreen/2014-04-07#i_85041).  Other 
developers offered us suggestions, but ultimately we decided that our custom 
entries did not need to be part of browse indexes and just set the browse field 
for some of those custom entries to false and removed the xpath issues.

There are others with more experience in this area, but we would have to see 
examples of your xpath entries from the config.metabib_field to know the exact 
reason for the problems.

Hello Everyone

My upgrade 2.4.4 to 2.5.x/2.6.x saga continues (slowly). While I am getting 
closer and have narrowed down other issues, I am now presented with the 
reingest process producing errors instead of working. When running the psql 
command to start the reingest process, it starts running with the following 
error as output:
psql:reingest_2.5_bib_recs.sql:1: ERROR:  invalid XPath expression DETAIL:  
Invalid expression CONTEXT:  SQL function "oils_xpath" statement 1 PL/pgSQL 
function  "extract_metabib_field_entry" line 48 at assignment SQL function 
"extract_metabib_field_entry" statement 1 PL/pgSQL function 
"reingest_metabib_field_entries" line 33 at FOR over SELECT rows

Running the reingest script generated with the 2.6.x upgrade script produces 
similar errors:

psql:reingest_2.6_bib_recs.sql:34167: ERROR:  invalid XPath expression DETAIL:  
Invalid expression CONTEXT:  SQL function "oils_xpath" statement 1 PL/pgSQL 
function "extract_metabib_field_entry" line 48 at assignment SQL function 
"extract_metabib_field_entry" statement 1 PL/pgSQL function 
"reingest_metabib_field_entries" line 33 at FOR over SELECT rows SQL statement 
"SELECT metabib.reingest_metabib_field_entries(NEW.id)" PL/pgSQL function 
"indexing_ingest_or_delete" line 55 at PERFORM

This continues for the entirety of the script, not sure what is causing this or 
where to look to fix.
