Re: [Koha] rabbitmq-server worker-output.log error message reframes filled my server's hard drive and crashed apache2 and mysqld
Hi Dwight, Thanks for sharing that. As you note, the problem is reported in Bug 34070. There's a fix in place for the upcoming Koha 25.05.

It also shutdown apache2 and mysqld and postfix had write errors.

Re: [Koha] Rabbitmq
Hi Andrew, I cannot tell if it's possible to downgrade or make Koha work on the newer OS, but in case it isn't: If you haven't changed any configuration files or used the upload feature, it should be enough to dump your database and re-import it into an empty instance database. Something like this: http://kohageek.blogspot.com/2015/08/move-old-koha-database-to-new.html If you have files in your file system or changed configuration files you will have to move them as well. A full backup is as always recommended. Hope this helps, Katrin On 02.12.23 00:53, Andrew R Hartung wrote: So is there any advice on what I should do?

Re: [Koha] RabbitMQ
Hi, SQL pulling is that perl daemon will run each 10 seconds a SQL query to check for new jobs. So the jobs may start a few seconds later than with rabbitMQ. For a small single koha server it looks like it is not a problem to avoid rabbitMQ. We at Biblibre have a patch to avoid warns when message broker is undefined : https://git.biblibre.com/biblibre/kohac/commit/ffac616cab5f56c5c4283ccd959cdef09d24e4b8 Best regards, Le 21/11/2023 à 13:43, Andrew Hartung a écrit : So in a moment of stupidity I updated my server to 23.10 and rabbitMQ will not build.
