Re: [Dspace-tech] Moving items to new collection
David, David, Similar to what George mentioned, I've always done this at the database level. I use the same basic SQL query (mentioned by George): update collection2item set collection_id=new collection's id where item_id=item's id; Or, if you are moving *all* the items in one collection to another: update collection2item set collection_id=new collection's id where collection_id=OLD collection's id; And then re-run the [dspace]/bin/index-all script, which will correct all the DSpace browsing interfaces, etc. I hope that helps! - Tim George Kozak wrote: David: I would do this in SQL.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Error in filter-media
Scott (and other Developers), I'd actually recommend that we should *backport* a fix for this issue to 1.4.2. I know these new options are available in 1.5. But, from what I've heard (both on off list), this OutOfMemory problem with the PDF filter is becoming more and more prevalent in 1.4.2 installations of DSpace. It seems the PDFBox software (which we use w/the PDF filter) still hasn't fixed this issue themselves, and that's the software that is eating up all the server memory. I logged the below bug with PDFBox back in October, but haven't received any fix/resolution from their end: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detailaid=1805929group_id=78314atid=552832 I created more of a hack way to get around this issue in our 1.4.2 instance, but there's definitely a much more elegant way of doing so in the upcoming 1.5 release (with the 'pdffilter.skiponmemoryexception' option) So, we might want to considering helping folks out and backporting a patch for DSpace 1.4.2 which can be installed to enable those options in the 1.4.2 dspace.cfg. I believe Graham was the one to add in those new options (correct me if I'm wrong, Graham)?? If he doesn't already have a 1.4.2 patch and/or cannot find time to create one, I should be able to create one later this week (i.e. hopefully by Fri) for all those struggling with this problem. - Tim Thornton, Susan M.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Problem with scripts after PostGreSQL upgrade
Hi, Everyone... In case anyone is wondering, I fixed my problem with PERL scripts after I upgraded to PostGreSQL 8.3, but discovered that the latest DBD::Pg Perl Module (DBD-Pg-2.2.1) doesn't work with my scripts. It looks as if they changed the way that variables are addressed in the latest version of DBD::Pg. After a of couple of days of messing around with it, I installed DBD-Pg-1.49 and everything worked fine. *** George Kozak Coordinator Web Development and Management Digital Media Group 501 Olin Library Cornell University 607-255-8924 *** [EMAIL PROTECTED] - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Long Delay in doing Submit
Hi... This is a follow up on my problem (at Cornell) with DSpace after we migrated from v. 1.3.2 to v. 1.4.2. The problem was that if someone on the My DSpace Home page clicked on Start a New Submission, it could take several minutes for the first Submit page to appear. What fixed my problem was upgrading from PostGreSQL 7.2.3 to PostGreSQL 8.3. Our problem immediately went away. So, if anyone is having performance problems after the upgrade to 1.4.2, I'd suggest upgrading PostGreSQL. *** George Kozak Coordinator Web Development and Management Digital Media Group 501 Olin Library Cornell University 607-255-8924 *** [EMAIL PROTECTED] - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

[Dspace-tech] Followup: Managing custom metadata
Last December I posted a message titled Managing custom metadata / advanced search options, describing some thoughts and questions I had regarding metadata for non-DC research data collections submitted to the repository. Later I drafted a discussion document outlining options, including benefits and issues. Following some discussion within the Library we've decided to go with a general approach which will see custom metadata mapped to DC (to enable simple keyword search within dspace and OAI harvesting) and submission of native metadata as accompanying bitstreams. If others are interested in this discussion, I've posted the document at... http://escholarship.library.usyd.edu.au/dpa/meta.html http://escholarship.library.usyd.edu.au/dpa/meta.html The scope of the discussion reflects the types of data collections currently being offered to the repository (records from relational databases and accompanying digital objects stored on departmental or personal computers). I'd welcome any feedback, advice or ideas reflecting how others are managing these issues. bye rowan Rowan Brownlee Digital Project Analyst University of Sydney Library NSW 2006 Australia Phone: +61 2 9036 6450 Fax: +61 2 9351 3689 http://escholarship.usyd.edu.au/dpa/ - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Error in filter-media
Hello, Just to share that we too experienced the same issue and was resolved after increasing -Xmx512m in dsrun and upgrading the system RAM from 4GB to 12GB. It would be of help. Cheers!

(LARC-B702)[NCI INFORMATION SYSTEMS] Cc: dspace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net; Scott Phillips Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] Error in filter-media Scott (and other Developers), I'd actually recommend that we should *backport* a fix for this issue to 1.4.2. I know these new options are available in 1.5. But, from what I've heard (both on off list), this OutOfMemory problem with the PDF filter is becoming more and more prevalent in 1.4.2 installations of DSpace. It seems the PDFBox software (which we use w/the PDF filter) still hasn't fixed this issue themselves, and that's the software that is eating up all the server memory. I logged the below bug with PDFBox back in October, but haven't received any fix/resolution from their end: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detailaid=1805929group_i d=78314atid=552832 I created more of a hack way to get around this issue in our 1.4.2 instance, but there's definitely a much more elegant way of doing so in the upcoming 1.5 release (with the 'pdffilter.skiponmemoryexception' option) So, we might want to considering helping folks out and backporting a patch for DSpace 1.4.2 which can be installed to enable those options in the 1.4.2 dspace.cfg. I believe Graham was the one to add in those new options (correct me if I'm wrong, Graham)?? If he doesn't already have a 1.4.2 patch and/or cannot find time to create one, I should be able to create one later this week (i.e. hopefully by Fri) for all those struggling with this problem. - Tim Thornton, Susan M.

Turning on largepdfs will tell pdfbox to use a temporary file while processing the pdf instead of keeping it all in memory. It will use the standard java.io.tmpdir directory to store them in. In addition using skip memory exception will allow the process to just continue instead of blocking everything else. Scott-- On Mar 4, 2008, at 3:12 PM, Thornton, Susan M.

[Dspace-tech] Computers games' repository
Hello, I am new in this list... I'd like to know if is possible to use the Dspace to create a computers games' repository. Thanks.
