Hi Paul, it doesn't look like the series of commands you issued are exact matches for those given at https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_on_Debian. Specifically, there are some Apache modules that your list of commands suggest may not have been enabled. The Wiki specifies:
$ sudo a2enmod rewrite cgi headers proxy_http In your list, only 'rewrite' and 'cgi' were enabled. The command "sudo apachectl -M" will list your loaded modules. I'm not expert enough to say whether or not the others are needed for Plack. Additionally, you should check the status of Perl modules in the staff interface under "About Koha" > "Perl modules". If your Perl module list is complete and up to date, then I might be inclined to do the following: $ sudo koha-disable library $ sudo a2enmod rewrite cgi headers proxy_http $ sudo systemctl restart apache2 $ sudo koha-plack --disable libraryname $ sudo koha-plack --enable libraryname $ sudo systemctl restart apache2 $ sudo systemctl restart koha-common $ sudo systemctl status koha-common If Plack has been enabled and started, you should see a line to that effect with the last command (and in the "Server information" screen of "About Koha"): koha-common[12684]: Starting Plack daemon for library:. As I wrote before, there will also be UN-commented, Plack-specific directives in the Apache site config that refer to Koha configuration files, for example: $ sudo grep -i 'include' /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/library.conf Include /etc/koha/apache-shared.conf # Include /etc/koha/apache-shared-disable.conf Include /etc/koha/apache-shared-opac-plack.conf Include /etc/koha/apache-shared-opac.conf Include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf Include /etc/koha/apache-shared.conf # Include /etc/koha/apache-shared-disable.conf Include /etc/koha/apache-shared-intranet-plack.conf Include /etc/koha/apache-shared-intranet.conf Include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf The important thing is that your instance runs, and runs well. If and when you respond to these messages, please select "Reply to all" to ensure that the Koha mailing list is included. Hypothetically, IF you're still using the BeyondTrust/Bomgar Remote Support software there at JAARS, AND you have Shell Jump access to the Koha server, AND inviting External Representatives to sessions is enabled, THEN you could securely share a shell session with me when time zones and work periods play well.
