Yes, you should initially register the external IP address.

Note that you can simply remove the bind_address entry from the
config.dct, and the handle server will bind to all available addresses
on that machine.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Clustering of Dspace servers

That depends on what you mean by software clustering.

 If we want a high availabilty
 application in Dspace what is the recommended configuration for the servers
 and software if any required. Regards,

A long time ago, a few of us looked into the feasibility of clustering
DSpace, and recorded the results here:

http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/HOWTO_Clustering

There are three layers which you may want to cluster, each having a
different level of difficulty in implementation: filesystem (relatively
easy), tomcat (still reasonably simple), and the database (much harder).
The conclusion that I came to about clustering the database was that to
do so with open source tools was, at the time, pretty much infeasible.

Jim

Re: [Dspace-tech] Eperson problem

 Glenn,

 HmmmThis is beginning to sound like a Javascript issue.  Since that
   list has no properties error sounds like a javascript error to me
 (but, correct me if I'm wrong).

 A couple things to look into:

 2) If you look at the Javascript code (in utils.js) which is used by
 that EPerson select window, you'll notice that it always tries to use
 the *first* form on your HTML page.  For example:

 window.document.forms[0].eperson_id.options[newplace] = new Option(name
 +  ( + email + ), id);

 (Notice the forms[0], which is hardcoded to look for the *first* HTML
 form tag on your page)

 So, if you've customized your DSpace to have an HTML form tag within
 either your Header (/layout/header-default.jsp) OR your left-hand
 adminstrative navigation bar (/layout/navbar-admin.jsp), it's possible
 the *first* form tag on your page is NOT the one which contains the
 select name=eperson_id tag.



This really saved my day. Is there somewhere you want me to send some kind
of micropayments over paypal?
Some project that  you specifically like which could use any small help?
I wish I could produce a large donation, but I cant, though I'd still like
to show my personal appreciation.

 But I agree that all this doesnt sound to be a job

NB: Terracotta is not part of a solution for replicating the database.
It would / could be used for replicating session data between multiple
web servers. In that case it is complimentary to either Sequoia or
Slony, not an alternative.

[Dspace-tech] Extra characters spontaneously littering pages

2007-09-19 Thread Shane Beers
Something quite unexpected greeted me this morning. I pulled up our  
repository page (http://mars.gmu.edu) to find  characters on our  
pages where formerly there were none. They seem to exist at the end  
of some lines, such as the left navbar text and inside picklists. We  
didn't change a thing on our production server and I'm kind of at a  
loss.


If anyone has any ideas please feel free to let me know!

Thanks much.

Shane,

I just viewed the source, and there are actually '' characters inside
the a href.../a tags.

Something seems to be inserting them during generation, and I would
suspect a change to /jsp/layout/location-bar.jsp

Re: [Dspace-tech] Eperson problem

2007-09-19 Thread Tim Donohue
Janne,

Glad that helped!   I don't have any suggestions of where you can make a 
small paypal donation.  Currently, DSpace doesn't have a paypal account 
to donate to.  However, I think it's a great idea, and I hope the folks 
in charge of the DSpace Federation think about establishing one down the 
line.

Until then, the simple thank you is plenty. :)

- Tim
