groupadd koha
useradd -s /bin/false -d /usr/share/koha -g koha -M
3. Get and install koha latest
pushd /tmp
tar -xzf koha-latest.tar.gz
cd koha-3{tab}
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install
3.2 Koha 3.4.x or later no longer stores items in biblio records. If you are upgrading from an older version you will need to do the following two steps, they can take a long time (several hours) to complete for large databases

misc/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -b -r
popd
4. Profile/Environment settings
echo -e 'setenv KOHA_CONF /etc/koha/koha-conf.xml\nsetenv PERL5LIB /usr/share/koha/lib' > /etc/profile.d/koha.tcsh
echo -e 'export KOHA_CONF=/etc/koha/koha-conf.xml\nexport PERL5LIB=/usr/share/koha/lib' > /etc/profile.d/koha.sh

5. install zebra
pushd /tmp
mkdir zebra
cd zebra
rpm -ihv libidzebra-2.0-*
rpm -ihv idzebra-2.0-2.0.53-1indexdata.x86_64.rpm
cd ..
rm -rf zebra
popd
6. Fix koha zebra module path and add service
zebramod=$(find / -name module* | grep -i idzebra) && ls /etc/koha/zebradb/zebra* | xargs perl -pi -e 's#/usr/lib/idzebra-2.0/modules#'$zebramod'#g'
ln -s /usr/share/koha/bin/koha-zebra-ctl.sh /etc/init.d/koha-zebra-daemon
ln -s /usr/bin/zebraidx-2.0 /usr/bin/zebraidx
ln -s /usr/bin/zebrasrv-2.0 /usr/bin/zebrasrv
pushd /tmp
wget http://libslack.org/daemon/download/daemon-0.6.4-1.x86_64.rpm
rpm -ihv daemon-0.6.4-1.x86_64.rpm
rm daemon-0.6.4-1.x86_64.rpm
popd
ln -s /usr/local/bin/daemon /usr/bin/daemon
perl -pi -e 's#ZEBRASRV=/zebrasrv#ZEBRASRV=/usr/bin/zebrasrv#g' /usr/share/koha/bin/koha-zebra-ctl.sh
chkconfig --add koha-zebra-daemon
service koha-zebra-daemon start
6.2 Add fast index every 2 hours to crontab file then activate it. (optional but recommended for small to semi medium installations during regular catalogue modifications)perl -I/usr/share/koha/lib /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/rebuild_zebra.pl -z -b -a
crontab -l > fastidx.ctab
echo -e '* */2 * * * koha /usr/share/koha/bin/migration_tools/zebupdate.sh \n' >> fastidx.ctab
crontab fastidx.ctab
rm fastidx.ctab
