[OPEN-ILS-DEV] import_demo question

[Nella Lall]

Dan and anyone else who might know,

I was doing the import_demo you have posted and got through steps 5 
without error.  I was using my own sample of 1000 MARC21XML/UTF-8 (or so 
I thought) records instead of your provided sample of 500 records.  When 
I got to step 6 I received this error:

:61: parser error : Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding !
Bytes: 0xE6 0x69 0x3C 0x2F
.....


Anyway, I realized that somewhere in my attempt to go from our Unicorn 
Marc21/Marc8 format records to the required MARC21XML/UTF8 records (via 
MarcEdit), things did not go 100% correctly.

So, my question is:

-can I begin the import_demo steps back at step one with your provided 
500 record sample (or any other record sample for that matter) without 
having to do any cleanup of tables for the failed/partial load of my 
1000 records?

Thanks,
Nella Lall
