I guess somehow your column is coming null for bitstreamformatregistry
Do you data something like this in this table:
dspace= \dt bitstreamformatregistry
List of relations
Schema | Name | Type | Owner

dspace= \d bitstreamformatregistry

Hello George,
I just ran a test on my workstation to do a fresh install of DSpace

setup (database version, OS)? Are those 4 tables the only ones
created? there should be 40.

[Dspace-tech] Implicit authentication issues . . .
Hi, I have integrated (one of) our DSpace instances (running v1.4.2) with our (home grown) portal authentication by creating an implicit authentication class that checks for our portal authentication cookies, and if they are there (and valid), it creates a DSpace authentication context for the user (creating an ePerson record on the fly if necessary) - it works pretty well, but I have 2 problems I can't get to the bottom of and wondered if anyone had any pointers etc. Problem 1: === If a user logs in to our portal and then accesses DSpace and clicks My DSpace, the authentication class kicks in and they end up at their My DSpace page . . . Fine. The bitstreams in DSpace are protected by a READ policy that only allows members of the group STIR_USERS to get access (and all new portal authenticated ePersons are automatically added to this group) - if a user has a DSpace authentication context in place (i.e. it says Logged in as at the top left), the user can access protected bitstreams no problem. Fine. However, if a user logs on to our portal, and then accesses DSpace (so not actually logged on to DSpace at this point but portal auth cookies in place), the first time they try to access a bitstream they get the page Authorisation Required - however, when presented with the Authorisation Required page, it appears that they have been authenticated because the logged in as message has appeared, and hitting refresh brings up the required bitstream (and subsequent access to bitstreams works fine). So it looks like the authentication class is being correctly called when they try to access the bitstream, and the authentication context is being set up, but for some reason I can't fathom, they don't get access to the bitstream but instead get redirected to the Authorisation Required screen . . . The logs give me this: 2008-03-28 16:09:12,594 INFO org.dspace.eperson.StirPortalAuthentication @ anonymous:session_id=1C92899D8684656C55C3EE88796A86CF:ip_addr=139.153.92 .71:login:type=StirPortalAuthentication 2008-03-28 16:09:12,594 INFO org.dspace.app.webui.util.Authenticate @ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:session_id=1C92899D8684656C55C3EE88796A86CF:ip_addr=139.1 53.92.71:login:type=implicit 2008-03-28 16:09:12,594 INFO org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.DSpaceServlet @ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:session_id=1C92899D8684656C55C3EE88796A86CF:ip_addr=139.1 53.92.71:authorize_error:org.dspace.authorize.AuthorizeException: Authorization denied for action READ on BITSTREAM:232 by user 0 - which seems to suggest some kind of problem - it recognises me as [EMAIL PROTECTED] but describes me as user 0. If I hit refresh, the item appears and the log shows the next line as: 2008-03-28 16:09:16,605 INFO org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.BitstreamServlet @ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:session_id=1C92899D8684656C55C3EE88796A86CF:ip_addr=139.1 53.92.71:view_bitstream:bitstream_id=232 Has anyone else ever seen this kind of behaviour with an implicit authentication class? Anyone have any idea why this may be happening? Am I doing something stupid with permissions? Any ideas where in the code I can dig about to learn more about what is happening, or any code hack suggestions to make this work the way I think it should? Problem 2: === Portal authentication is part of an authentication stack with normal authentication below (so external users can create accounts if needs be) - if a user who has NOT logged on to our portal attempts to access a bitstream the implicit authentication fails (correctly), and they are routed to the normal DSpace logon page - I've added a link to this page for our local users which goes to our portal logon page with a redirect back to the DSpace homepage - I would like, however, for this redirect to take the user back to whatever page/bitstream they were trying to access. So, is there anyway to pick up the URL of the page they were trying to access (where the authentication was required) from within the logon JSP page so that I can embed this in the link to our portal logon page? Another possibility is to remove the normal authentication class altogether (understanding that this means no external users can use this instance of DSpace) and have the portal authentication class automatically route them to our portal logon (along with an appropriate redirection URL back to DSpace) if the implicit authentication fails - is this doable? If so, anyone got any pointers on how best to achieve it? Thanks in advance for any suggestions/pointers anyone may have (and to anyone else who bothered to read to the end of this rather wordy request for help!).

This sounds a little odd. Try checking the ordering of the authorization processes in the two servlets (BitstreamServlet and MyDSpaceServlet if my memory serves me correctly). Looking at the logs, it seems you are challeneged to authenticate, you are logged in implicitly, but something doesn't quite work correctly: 2008-03-28 16:09:12,594 INFO org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.DSpaceServlet @ [EMAIL PROTECTED]:session_id=1C92899D8684656C55C3EE88796A86CF:ip_addr=139.153.92.71:authorize_error:org.dspace.authorize.AuthorizeException: Authorization denied for action READ on BITSTREAM:232 by user 0 The logging code has your email address, but not your user ID. Can you figure out why this is? This really shouldn't be possible, and the reason it's failing is because the auth check is using your ID, not your email address to do the resource policy lookup. Portal authentication is part of an authentication stack with normal authentication below (so external users can create accounts if needs be) - if a user who has NOT logged on to our portal attempts to access a bitstream the implicit authentication fails (correctly), and they are routed to the normal DSpace logon page - I've added a link to this page for our local users which goes to our portal logon page with a redirect back to the DSpace homepage - I would like, however, for this redirect to take the user back to whatever page/bitstream they were trying to access. This is not an uncommon request. It is technologically possible to do this by just passing around the request path parameters from the URL, but DSpace just doesn't do it. I'm not sure about the historical reasons why (beyond simplicity of implementation), but it shouldn't be too much work to include. When I've done this in the past, I just include the requested page as a hidden parameter in the login form and have the processing servlet look for the parameter and use it if appropriate. Another possibility is to remove the normal authentication class altogether (understanding that this means no external users can use this instance of DSpace) and have the portal authentication class automatically route them to our portal logon (along with an appropriate redirection URL back to DSpace) if the implicit authentication fails - is this doable? If so, anyone got any pointers on how best to achieve it? This probably isn't going to be pleasant for your users because it rips them out of the context of DSpace and puts an extra burden on your portal to do the redirection back. Again, it would be possible, but I think it's probably the wrong approach, and having DSpace take care of the redirection would be for the best (indeed, if you can do this in a general way and provide a patch, I'm sure you'd make some friends ;). cheers, Jim -- James Rutherford | Hewlett-Packard Limited registered Office: Research Engineer | Cain Road, HP Labs | Bracknell, Bristol, UK | Berks +44 117 312 7066 | RG12 1HN.

[Dspace-tech] DSpace 1.5 Upload issue - Internal System Error
Hello - I have just finished building Dspace 1.5 on ubuntu server 7.10 and all appears to be working nicely except for when I try to upload a file I get an Internal System Error and when I look in the logs (tomcat or dspace) there is nothing. I am having trouble with email from this server (awaiting a final config), but thought that there might be some other places to chase down the error messages? (upload directory and assetstore are empty as well).

[Dspace-tech] Please Promote DSpace @ Google Summer of Code to your students and at OR08...
DSpace Community, While its not fully official yet, it really looks like we will have another week to accept student applications for GSoC. Its been determined that many students were away on vacation during the last couple weeks and the topic is getting allot of response on the mentors list. We have less than 1/4 the applicants we had last year (3), If we don't get more proposals, there will not be as good a pool of applications to choose the top few from. So Get the Word Out while your at the Conference and let your community know that now is the time for students to sign up! Proposals do not have to be based on the ideas documented on our page/ wiki. If your a university student and you think to have a good idea for a software project that involves DSpace, put in an application and see where it takes you. Participation in Google Summer of Code will look great on your Resume'! Applications and IDeas can be accessed at the following locations! http://code.google.com/soc/2008/ http://groups.google.com/group/google-summer-of-code-announce/web/ guide-to-the-gsoc-web-app-for-student-applicants http://code.google.com/soc/2008/dspace/about.html Cheers, Mark ~ Mark R.
