[Dspace-tech] Fwd: dspace-discovery missing from GIT clone of V3.0rc2
Forwarding to the list. On Thu, Nov 1, 2012 at 5:50 AM, Kevin Gunn k.g...@aims.gov.au wrote: Hi Emilo, Sorry for the delayed response but these emails were getting filtered from me. I haven't been given time for testing and contributing to V3, and there's no indication yet of when a stable version of 3.0 will be released, so I'm sticking with 1.8.2 from subversion. The 1.8.2 from GIT appears to be different from that in subversion? I had issues with the master branch and tag 3.0rc1, haven't tried 3.0rc2. I was able to modify the subversion 1.8.2 base to include CAS authentication SSO and also the a vocabulary selector for subject/keyword selection based of what is now available from the master/V3 tags. Although for us it means maintaining standalone version of the dspace-api jar, the dspace-xmlui-api jar and the dspace-xmlui-webapp war files in our local maven repository and updating the POMS of these XMLUI components to look for the modified libraries. On the build, should I be able to get the build to use the jar/war file in the target directory, instead of always retrieving the files from the maven repository? Maven is good for dependency management, but I was hoping it might be able to realise that there's an updated library in the project structure and not always go to the repo?? Or should the build be updating my local repo?? Sorry I don't have more time to put into version 3 but my organisation is keen for me to get DSpace into production. I'm hoping they allocate so more time to me in the first half of next year to revisit upgrading our DSpace.

Hi, DSpace Eperson password hash: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/blob/master/dspace-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/eperson/PasswordHash.java Hashing the eperson password for storing purposes only allows one to secure DSpace against those who have access to the database (mainly, DSpace administrators).

Hi Indu, perhaps you need to setgit the sendmail binary so that the dspace user could run it. Also make sure dspace is in the same (secondary) group as the sendmail binary.

Bingo! Our documentation had it backwards. We're all better now and pointing back to the XMLUI, as intended. Thank you for being there, everyone.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Replace bitstreams in items through CLI
You don't have to make it so complicated, DSpace data structures are very sane as opposed to some other systems. After you replaced the files in the assetstore, calculate a new MD5 checksum for them and store it to the bitstream table. Notice that bitstream file name in asset store is not equal to its checksum. The checksum is in the bitstream.checksum columns and is indeed MD5. Don't forget to run index-update after you change the values. Running the checksum checker is a matter of course, you know that. Just to comment on the problem with the mappings: you probably used ItemImport with the replace parameter: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC3x/Importing+and+Exporting+Items+via+Simple+Archive+Format#ImportingandExportingItemsviaSimpleArchiveFormat-ReplacingItemsinCollection That one deletes the item and submits a new one. using ItemUpdate instead might work as expected: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC3x/Updating+Items+via+Simple+Archive+Format Regards, ~~helix84 -- Everyone hates slow websites.

Hmm, I should start writing fortune cookies. So in DSpace 1.6, there was Lucene 2.3.0, in 1.8, there was 3.3.0. 1) look at the changes in Lucene: http://lucene.apache.org/core/old_versioned_docs/versions/3_3_0/changes/Changes.html 2) look at Lucene changes in DSpace: git diff dspace-1_6_x dspace-1_8_x dspace-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/search/ Good luck :) Regards, ~~helix84 -- Everyone hates slow websites.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Replace bitstreams in items through CLI
Thanks for the (very) fast response helix84. I actually did look at ItemUpdate. This still requires that you delete one bitstream and add another. The delete option requires a bitstream ID, which I have no way of knowing by iterating the filesystem. Unless the internal_id in the bitstream table is unique and corresponds to the filename as stored in assetstore, which it now looks likely to me. If that is true, then I should be able to use ItemUpdate by using the filename that I am busy with to do a lookup of the bistream_id in the bitstream table. The question then becomes, am I correct in assuming that the bitstream.internal_id field is the actual filename? If I am to use your other suggestion and calculate my own MD5 checksum and insert it into the database, I will then also need to update the bitstream.size_bytes field. Both of these methods sound likely to work, but I think that the ItemUpdate is safer. I will test both and let you know.

The question then becomes, am I correct in assuming that the bitstream.internal_id field is the actual filename? Sounds good. I never tried it, though.

Both of these methods sound likely to work, but I think that the ItemUpdate is safer. I will test both and let you know. I forgot to include the usual disclaimer and warning - backup your assetstore and database dump before you make any manual changes, update indexes and run checks after you do the changes.
