Re: [Koha] Koha indexing - files
Thanks for the info! Our servers have SSDs and plenty of RAM. So it sounds like possibly putting the index files in tmp on a separate disk might add some performance improvement ...though the SSDs by themselves will probably be the biggest improvement.

It'd be worth seeing where the slowdown in the indexing actually is: is the exporting the slow part, or the merging into the index? Though, I've never tried with zebra indicies on a high speed disk, I'd be interested to see some real benchmarks. Not absolute, but... our latest server uses SSD (raided 240 Gig Kingstons) rather than HDD (raided 500 Gig Seagates) with very slightly faster 8-core CPU, same 18 Gigs RAM; and the read speed (counting by 100's) of a total re-index is about twice as fast, with authorities faster than biblios. However, the Cleaning stage is disappointingly about the same speed, maybe a tad faster but barely perceptible. Memcached enabled on both boxes, same version of Zebra. I get the *impression* that Zebra sorts (or does some other process) during the final write stage, otherwise we'd have seen an improvement. However, we rarely use the full re-index, having got the Cron job fully sorted every minute (including minor tweaking of biblio-zebra-indexdefs.xsl) -- and that is as near instantaneous as anyone could wish. Best -- Paul Also, more RAM might be useful for disk caching, and you could experiment with disk fsync() commit options (i.e. by making it not require data to be written back before returning.) This has risk though, but if you're careful, it could well be acceptable, for example just needing to a full reindex in case of a power outage. -- Robin Sheat Catalyst IT Ltd. ✆ +64 4 803 2204 GPG: 5FA7 4B49 1E4D CAA4 4C38 8505 77F5 B724 F871 3BDF ___ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha --- Maritime heritage and history, preservation and conservation, research and education through the written word and the arts. http://NavalMarineArchive.com and http://UltraMarine.ca ___ Koha mailing list http://koha-community.org Koha@lists.katipo.co.nz http://lists.katipo.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/koha -- Chad Roseburg Automation Dept.

Re: [Koha] Error message at login: 'You do not have permission to access this page'
You can ignore that warning and continue working. For your newly created patron edit the patron account and edit permissions and check all the permission boxes. Once done save and exit. Try login with newly created account and check.
