Update,
I was able to export a .mrc file using the koha-shell. I needed to change
the directory I was in when I entered the shell. In case someone else tries
this method, I did:
- sudo koha-shell instanceName
- cd ~
- this will get back to koha-shell's home directory
- /usr/share/koha/bin/export_records.pl --format marc --record-type bibs
--filename my-file-name.mrc
- After several minutes the export completed.
- exit
- ls /var/lib/koha/instanceName/
- the file was found in this directory
The front end Export tool is still failing, but I'll see if I can use the
terminal export for a work around.
