How did you import these titles into Evergreen? Did you disable any database triggers during the import? I do not remember disabling any triggers, I made sql scripts based on the eg database schema, as I could not get the old ILS (Destiny Resource Manager (v8.5 (rc8) - 07/08/2008)) to export in a form that was suitable for direct batch import into evergreen. > > Further,browsing the catalog brings a list of titles, but clicking on > them results in a internal server error response.

You should be able to start with the Apache error logs for the time that the error occurred. There will usually be a message pointing to the actual error that occurred in the back end. There will also be many less useful messages. See below > > I am running the 2.11 version of evergreen, and 2.4.2 version of > opensrf on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. I recommend switching to the latest 3.0 version of both Evergreen and OpenSRF. The versions you are using are no longer supported by the community, not even for security updates. I just installed the 3.0 version. The problem still persists, but instead of the internal server error messages, I am being redirected to the nothing found for your search page and being asked to refine my search. > > Has anyone else experienced this? Would anyone have an explanation for > this behaviour? I've experienced many similar problems when setting up test and development environments for Evergreen. It almost always comes down to something that I did wrong or skipped during the installation process, or a bug in some experimental code that I am testing. Less often, it is a bona fide bug in Evergreen or OpenSRF. So many different things can lead to internal server errors with Apache and Evergreen that we cannot begin to speculate without more information. Hope that helps, and please share more information so we can help. Cheers, Jason
