I've forgotten the origins of the script but it was downloaded and I believe is used at other sites. Anyway, we recently upgraded DSpace to 4.2 and the script stopped working as it has hardcoded assumptions about the OAI resumption tokens which are no longer valid at 4.2.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Initial Community Screen really slow to load on 5.1
Questions: (a) is it this particular page which is slow, or is it any first page in a user session (which just happens to usually be this page) ? (b) are subsequent reloads of the same page shortly after also slow ? Slowness is likely to be caused by the Java app (or the entire VM) being swapped out from memory; database connections needing to be reestablished; per-session customisations meaning nothing can be cached; or HTTPD DNS lookups. cheers stuart -- I have a new phone number: 04 463 5692 https://www.facebook.com/VUWLibrary / https://www.facebook.com/TKMPC From: Wally Grotophorst wal...@gmu.edu Sent: Tuesday, 14 April 2015 3:02 p.m. To: dspace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] Initial Community Screen really slow to load on 5.1 Did a complete rebuild of DSpace 5.1 today and it seems to be working much better now...back to the 1-2 second response time.

If you're using date formats starting with the Year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and Eighty seven... they may do, but if you're doing that, you probably have bigger issues. I'm not sure where this gets set in dspace. cheers stuart -- I have a new phone number: 04 463 5692 From: Terry Brady terry.br...@georgetown.edu Sent: Thursday, 4 December 2014 6:12 a.m. To: dspace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] Inconsistent text_lang on metadatavalue fields I am still looking for insight on this question.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Urgent: database layer spontaneously closing connections(…)
Although my postgresql is in standard configuration running autovacuum
regularly, I did a manual vacuum full and a reindex database and reindex
system for the dspace database yesterday. These jobs finished fast without
problems. The snippet of the logfile above was recorded after this
maintainance.
(a) have you cheaked the operating system logs for evidence of disk corruption?
('dmesg' in the case of linux)
(b) is postgres configured to be utf-8?

Re: [Dspace-tech] Error running custom java scripts in 1.8.2
The error message you are seeing is 100% consistent with dspace not being able
to find the correct jars.
There are two main options.
1 They haven't been compiled and copied over to the new build (look for them in
the directories of the new build)
2 The change to add them to the CLASSPATH is not present ('ps auxwww' should
tell you the full classpath that tomcat is using, look for the path you found

Many users in the developing world access on an array of kinds of hardware and software that we would consider obsolete. Requiring the latest and greatest web technologies to access our research isn't going to decrease that development gap. Many tools, from plain server monitoring systems to reference checking systems to fancy website thumbnail services just work better and more reliably over http than https. cheers stuart -- ___ DSpace-tech mailing list DSpace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-tech List Etiquette: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/Mailing+List+Etiquette

While working on these updates, it came to our attention that some of the metadata formats in the DSpace OAI module are out of date. For example, links to both the namespace (http://www.dspace.org/xmlns/dspace/dim) and schema (http://www.dspace.org/schema/dim.xsd) of the DSpace Intermediate Metadata (DIM) format are apparently dead; meanwhile, the schemas for MODS and ETDMS have (relatively) recently been updated to 3.5 and 1.1, respectively, but the OAI links to previous versions of the two. It would be great to have the latest schema versions available for updating OAI crosswalking; however, we are hesitant to make local changes, as the OAI webapp is currently being upgraded for the next DSpace software version and its xoai file still references the previous schemas and dead links. Does anyone know if there has been any discussion about updating the metadata versions/links in the OAI webapp before the next update? Thanks!

I think you're missing the point. Protecting the content is as you say unimportant if it's open content. But the big threat here is to the privacy of the patrons. Your viewing history, if it gets into the wrong hands, could easily put you or someone you care about at risk. The big threat for me is that someone can unload a bogus thesis into my repository and on that basis claim to have a degree ... When a TLS connection gets established, the two parties negotiate the most secure option they both support. That negotiation is driven by the client, meaning that modern sanely configured clients will normally be very secure from passive listening attacks. Active attacks are more challenging to prevent, and raising the minimum security of the certs supported is one approach to do that. Cheers stuart -- Want excitement?

Aguillo; dspace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net Cc: Jonathan Markow; dspace-gene...@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Dspace-general] [Dspace-tech] Regarding Ranking of Repositories Hello Isidro, DuraSpace (the stewarding organization behind DSpace and Fedora repository software) was planning to send you a compiled list of the concerns with your proposal. As you can tell from the previous email thread, many of the users of DSpace have similar concerns. Rather than bombard you with all of them individually (which you could see from browsing the thread), we hoped to draft up a response summarizing the concerns of the DSpace community. Below you'll find an initial draft of the summarized concerns. The rule numbering below is based on the numbering at: http://repositories.webometrics.info/en/node/26 --- Concerns with the Proposal from Ranking Web of Repositories * Rule #2 (IRs that don't use the institutional domain will be excluded) would cause the exclusion of some IRs which are hosted by DSpace service providers. As an example, some DSpaceDirect.org users have URLs https://[something].dspacedirect.org which would cause their exclusion as it is a non-institutional domain. Many other DSpace hosting providers have similar non-institutional domain URLs by default. * Rule #4 (Repositories using ports other than 80 or 8080) would wrongly exclude all DSpace sites which use HTTPS (port 443). Many institutions choose to run DSpace via HTTPS instead of HTTP. * Rule #5 (IRs that use the name of the software in the hostname would be excluded) may also affect IRs which are hosted by service providers (like DSpaceDirect). Again, some DSpaceDirect customers have URLs which use *.dspacedirect.org (includes dspace). This rule would also exclude MIT's IR which is the original DSpace (and has used the same URL for the last 10+ years): http://dspace.mit.edu/ * Rule #6 (IRs that use more than 4 directory levels for the URL address of the full texts will be excluded.) may accidentally exclude a large number of DSpace sites. The common download URLs for full text in DSpace are both are at least 4 directory levels deep: - XMLUI: [dspace-url]/bitstream/handle/[prefix]/[id]/[filename] - JSPUI: [dspace-url]/bitstream/[prefix]/[id]/[sequence]/[filename] NOTE: prefix and id are parts of an Item's Handle (http://hdl.handle.net/), which is the persistent identifier assigned to the item via the Handle System. So, this is how a persistent URL like http://hdl.handle.net/1721.1/26706 redirects to an Item in MIT's DSpace. * Rule #7 (IRs that use more than 3 different numeric (or useless) codes in their URLs will be excluded.). It is unclear how they would determine this, and what the effect may be on DSpace sites worldwide. Again, looking at the common DSpace URL paths above, if a file had a numeric name, it may be excluded as DSpace URLs already include 2-3 numeric codes by default ([prefix],[id], and [sequence] are all numeric). * Rule #8 (IRs with more than 50% of the records not linking to OA full text versions..). Again, unclear how they would determine this, and whether the way they are doing so would accidentally exclude some major DSpace sites. For example, there are major DSpace sites which include a larger number of Theses/Dissertations. These Theses/Dissertations may not be 100% Open Access to the world, but may be fully accessible everyone on campus. --- Another, perhaps more serious concern, is on the timeline you propose. You suggest a timeline of January 2015 when these newly proposed rules would be in place. Yet, if these rules were to go in place, some rules may require changes to the DSpace software itself (as I laid out above, some rules may not mesh well with DSpace software as it is, unless I'm misunderstanding the rule itself). Unfortunately, based on our DSpace open source release timelines, we have ONE new release (DSpace 5.0) planned between now and January 2015. Even if we were able to implement some of these recommended changes at a software level, the vast majority (likely 80-90%) of DSpace instances would likely NOT be able to upgrade to the latest DSpace version before your January deadline (as the 5.0 release is scheduled for Nov/Dec). Therefore, as is, your January 2015 ranking may accidentally exclude a large number of DSpace sites from your rankings, and DSpace is still the

Re: [Dspace-tech] using two google analytics accounts in DSpace
We do something similar. We rolled it out a while ago, before the new the new
Universal thing. If you look at the source of
http://researcharchive.vuw.ac.nz/ there are two google code sections. The first
is our hand-rolled cross-site google code:
script language=javascript type=text/javascript
src=http://library.vuw.ac.nz/library/sites/all/themes/custom/library2/js/jquery/jquery-1.5.2.min.js;
// /script
script language=javascript type=text/javascript
src=http://library.vuw.ac.nz/library/sites/all/themes/custom/library2/js/LIB/lib.ga.js;
// /script
script language=javascript type=text/javascript
LIB.GA.init();
LIB.GA.trackPageview();
/script
/div
Which was cut-and-pasted directly into the skin that we're using. Below that is
the default code:
script type=text/javascript
var _gaq = _gaq || [];
_gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-6716162-1']);
_gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);
(function() {
var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type =
'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;
ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ?
'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';
var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
})();

Subject: [Dspace-tech] using two google analytics accounts in DSpace
Hi everyone,
Our centralized IT group wants to implement Universal Google Analytics in our
organization and our department is one of the test cases. We already have
Dspace stats and a Google Analytics account for Dspace. We want to add the
Universal Google Analytics code from our central IT in addition to the
statistics we already have in place. Does anyone know if this is possible? And
where would I add the code for the Universal Google Analytics account?
Thanks in advance,
Jennifer

We are running DSpace 1.8 and every couple of weeks we end up having to reboot the Tomcat because it crashes due to a Java heap space error. We have been trying to correct it since the beginning of the year by incrementally increasing the memory assigned to Java. By now we are at half the server memory, roughly 2 GB, assigned to Java and while it is taking longer we still are having to reboot due to heap space errors. We are not sure what the issue is and we are at loss as to how to fix it because throwing more memory at it is not fixing the problem. I would welcome any thoughts, suggestions, or advice on how to fix this. Thanks for your time and insights.

As one of the outcomes of the IR day held in Wellington, NZ last week I've started a wiki page on connecting your DSpace instance to your organisational reporting tools.

[Dspace-tech] whitespace bug with global change (commandline)
I've encountered an issue with batch updating dates using the command line version. In my exported CSV there are two columns which differ only by whitespace differences in the language code: dc.date.copyright[ ] and dc.date.copyright[] When I try to merge these (to the second), the confirmation step sees these as different and asks for confirmation to make the change, but the following change step doesn't actually make the change. Other changes in the same CSV work as expected. I'm thinking that either the confirmation and update steps have different ideas about whitespace normalisation or this is a bug in the SQL whitespace handling (which google suggests is a challenging topic).

The chances of being able to recover from various catastrophic failures is substantially reduced by the move to encryption.

Re: [Dspace-tech] $PATH in Unix for DSpace
$PATH and $CLASSPATH are two completely separate variables.
On POSIX $PATH is the list of directories of executables. Often these
are directories ending in .../bin
In java, $CLASSPATH is the list of directories of to look for compiled
classes (usually in .jar format). Often these are directories ending in
.../lib The default Tomcat startup script adds all the necessary lib
directories to the $CLASSPATH, so you shouldn't need to add them
yourself unless you've changed anything.
We use:
export CLASSPATH=$JAVA_HOME/lib
export
PATH=/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/root/bin:/sbin

Hi,
Can someone tell me what needs to be in $PATH in order to run DSpace on
a Unix server? I was looking at how we’ve defined $PATH and I think we
may have some things in there we don’t need, including:
/dspace/lib
/dspace/bin
/dspace-{version}-src-release
We also have these directories in there also:
/usr/postgres/{version}/bin
/usr/local/pgsql/bin
/usr/local/pgsql/lib
I’m thinking we don’t need any of these in $PATH.
We do, of course, have the locations of Maven, Ant, and Java in there.
I would appreciate any input.
Thanks a bunch,
Best regards,
Sue

However maintains the LDAP at your site almost certainly controls who can access it. If your new server has a different machine name or IP address, their records may need to be updated.

Re: [Dspace-tech] More re Porter Stem Filter
On 03/02/11 06:35, Jizba, Richard wrote:
Tim,
Thanks for the response.
The first option isn't an option for because we need to search for
numbers.
I did see something like the second option, which said to basically
comment out the PorterStemFilter.
So my question is, can I eliminate that level of stemming all together.
This is what I want to do:
===
public final TokenStream tokenStream(String fieldName, final Reader
reader)
{
TokenStream result = new DSTokenizer(reader);
result = new StandardFilter(result);
result = new LowerCaseFilter(result);
result = new StopFilter(result, stopSet);
/*result = new PorterStemFilter(result); */
return result;
}
Will this 'break' anything?
As I understand it, DSpace will then use the DSAnalyser, parse the
character data into words, convert them to lower case and index the
terms excluding the stop list.
There is a nice exemplar patch for how to do these kinds of things right at:
http://www.mail-archive.com/dspace-general@mit.edu/msg00378.html
If you made such a patch and contributed it, not only would it fix the
problem for you, but rather than re-fix future releases it would be a
simple config change.
A more comprehensive fix might be to build parallel indexes, one stemmed
and stop-worded and one unstemmed and unstop-worded. The indexes would
take up twice the disk space, but I think not too many people are
worried about index disk space these days.
If anybody is still with me, I would be curious if there is a
LowerCaseFilter that would permit the retention of capital 'A's.
Eliminating 'A's in medical research databases is a problem. Vitamin A
is the obvious example, but there are many other occurrences of 'A' as
an important, non-trivial term in a name.
A simple question, but there are complexities here you appear not to
have thought of.
cheers

Re: [Dspace-tech] re Porter Stem Filter
Almost all searches by almost all users, globally, are done on half a dozen search platforms (google, bing, etc). These all use extensive normalisation (stemming, case folding, unicode normalisation, etc) and doing a fabulous job of teaching their users (and by extension our users) that this is the way search is done. While I fully support using controlled vocabulary and authority control for terms we care about, I believe the battle to define how full-text search should work has was lost some time ago (probably last millennia). I suspect that the real solution to problems such as Richard Jizba's is a automated extraction of controlled vocabularies (Medical Subject Headings in this case) from the full text and then a browsing / search interface to than. cheers stuart On 03/02/11 07:36, Schumacher, John wrote: Hello. Opinions on this were requested. I agree completely with Richard Jizba.

I have been searching bibliographic databases since the early 1980s and teach courses to our health sciences students on search techniques. We have always appreciated the systems that give us the power to find exactly the terms and the combinations we want. Language is just too rich and varied for any other approach in my experience. There have been many times when I have needed to search for a singular form of a noun vs a plural form or vice versa. Using truncation and wildcard operators is not rocket science. Lucene has some really powerful search operators, but their power is basically nullified by the Stemming operation. Our DSpace instance isn't aimed primarily at a broad worldwide user base, but select groups of students, staff and faculty with rather sophisticated information needs. Besides, most of our collection can also be discovered through Google. Why duplicate that, when I have the option of also creating an alternative search environment that provides for sophisticated, analytical searches of scholarly, curricular and administrative documents? You might be surprised at how quickly the people in our Office of Medical Education have picked up on the nuances of how and where they put metadata, the need for standardized vocabulary in defining lecture objectives, and how quickly they figured out what was happening to their attempts to search for wellness (stemmed to well). (It did not surprise me!) I think the distributed community administration available with DSpace will really help our faculty and staff take seriously the data (text) they put into their collections. Our expertise as consultants and trainers to the staff in the Office of Medical Education has really made them appreciate the expertise of librarians, particularly my reference librarians who have very good analytical search skills. Don't sell people short -- they can be very sophisticated which means we need to provide them with powerful tools, not heavy-handed interventions (the Porter Algorithm) I'm planning on being at OR11 and would be happy to discuss this over a beer.

We are seeing two separate issues related to bitstream / bundle permissions which may or may not be linked to https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-776 The first issue is that Collection Admins don't appear to be able to upload additional files / bitstreams to bundles. The second issue is that Collection Admins don't appear to be able to change the permissions on individual bitstreams on a case by case basis. In each case we have to do this logged on as Administrator. Has anyone else managed to get this working? Am I just misunderstanding the authorisation section in the dspace.cfg?

Re: [Dspace-tech] two Instances of dspace
We do exactly this, and Tim's advice is good. We run our dspace's in different Tomcat engines listening on different ports, http://localhost:8080/ and http://localhost:8081/ Each engine has a separate solr too, and you'll need to update the URLs in the config. cheers stuart On 01/02/11 04:04, Tim Donohue wrote: Sisay, You should not rename the 'dspace.cfg' to be 'dspace2.cfg', as this may cause issues. You can install two instances of DSpace on one server, just don't rename any of the primary DSpace configuration files. So, if you want two instances, you need to have two separate directories like: /dspace - first install directory, with all configs, webapps, assetstore, etc /dspace2 - second install directory, with all configs, webapps, assetstore, etc. (Do not rename any of the configs or sub directories) Essentially, to install two instances, you'll want to follow the installation instructions twice (obviously). https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC/Installation The keys when performing two installs on one server are the following: * The two installs should use a separate Database * The two installs should use a separate Installation Directory * You'll also want to link Tomcat to both installations, and provide different URL paths for each in Tomcat (e.g. http://localhost:8080/xmlui/ and http://localhost:8080/xmlui2/).

Re: [Dspace-tech] DSpace and shibboleth authentication problem
This is likely to be a cookies issue, because cookie handling and default behaviour are different between IE and firefox. Likely test cases are where you already have cookies from the shibboleth service in your browser's cache. Debugging the issue is likely to be easier / more consistent if you start every time with a new profile. cheers stuart On 31/01/11 20:55, Lehtilä Tapani wrote: We've had a couple shibboleth authentication problems since we updated to 1.6.2. At the same time the service was moved to another computer. That means I can not be sure whether this is a problem of DSpace or only our shibboleth authentication installation. Problem is, that sometimes I cannot log into DSpace with an account at some specific computer/browser. For example at this moment my account work right with Mozilla Firefox, but at the same computer login with Internet Explorer has an answer: Authentication Failed.

Restarting the shibboleth service helps but the problem has appeared again after a few weeks. While this could be a problem of our organization's shibboleth service, I'm asking if somebody has seen something like this and could this be a problem of DSpace?

[Dspace-tech] DSpace 1.6 upgrade advice
Hello I've read (and believe I understand) the upgrade notes at http://www.dspacedev2.org/1_6_0Documentation/ch04.html#N10F06 however, I'm concerned that my upgrade won't be as smooth as it might be. Mainly because I suspect that changes have been applied outside the approved update mechanism and I don't want to loose those changes. I'm planning a more conservative upgrade path (outlined below), which I hope will allow me to catch any problems before I take our production instance off line. I'd greatly appreciate feedback as to whether my approach is flawed, and/or whether there are significant classes of issues that I won't catch in this manner. My approach relies on the fact that I have a smaller dev machine that I can use for my purposes (alas it is too small to hold the entire assets directory). My work is also complicated by the fact that I'm running a dual-instance server. Both servers are running the redhat family of linux operating systems. My plan: 0) Do a full backup of live 1) Using a database snapshot and file copy of [dspace-source] and [dspace], duplicate both dspace on the dev machine (with the exception of the assets directory). Leaving the live server running. 2) Upgrade the dev server and see what issues fall out of the woodwork. 3) Fix those issues in the dev server. 4) Do a full backup of live 5) Stop the live server. 6) Upgrade the live server 7) Transfer any necessary fixes from the dev server to the live server 8) Restart live server Does that sound like a sane approach? Is there anything I can't test / debug / fix in this way? I'm already aware that: * handles will be broken (because they'll point to the live server rather than the dev site) * search will be broken (because i'll not have the assets directory) cheers stuart -- Stuart Yeates http://www.nzetc.org/ New Zealand Electronic Text Centre http://researcharchive.vuw.ac.nz/ Institutional Repository -- Download Intel#174; Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.

[Dspace-tech] Embargo in 1.6
I have some questions about the Embargo plugin in 1.6. I'm basing this on http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/Embargo_1.6 and trolling through the subversion repository (dspace-1.6.0-rc1 tag). We'd like to have an drop-down box in our self-deposit which allows users to select an embargo period (probably 3, 6, 12, 18 or 24 months). This then gets put in the metadata field pointed to by embargo.field.terms (probably 'VUW.embargo'), and the date of uplift calculated and stored in that pointed to by embargo.field.lift (probably 'available'). The DefaultEmbargoSetter automatically sets the default permissions so that while the item metadata for an embargoed item is globally readable, the bitstreams are inaccessible to everyone but admins. [This could be overridden to a less strict lockdown by overriding the setEmbargo method, we havent' thrashed this out yet] DefaultEmbargoSetter also calculates the embargo.field.lift date, from the embargo.field.terms and the current time/date. Once a day the EmbargoManager runs and uplifts items whose embargo has expired. Uplifting involves setting the permissions to whatever the default permissions are for the collection it's in, making item's bitstreams public. My questions are: [1] Does the above sound sane? [2] Is there any way to generate notifications of lifting? The easiest thing I can see would be to do a search for the embargo.field.terms field, sorting on the availability, and supply that as an RSS feed. [3] We're considering how to direct users to other sources for the item when it's currently embargoed. This would probably be involve displaying a block of text which might be inviting them to login and giving them alternative access routes to the item. Has anyone done this? [4] In the wiki at http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/Embargo_1.6, if I am reading things correctly, the second to last option in the config file snippet is missing the relevant default option and the last option has it truncated. Am I reading it correctly? Due to my technical skills, I'd prefer options that involve XSLT to those involving Java :) cheers stuart -- Stuart Yeates http://www.nzetc.org/ New Zealand Electronic Text Centre http://researcharchive.vuw.ac.nz/ Institutional Repository -- Return on Information: Google Enterprise Search pays you back Get the facts. http://p.sf.net/sfu/google-dev2dev ___ DSpace-tech mailing list DSpace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-tech

[Dspace-tech] script to validate all PDFs ?
Does anyone have a script that checks all of the previously uploaded PDFs and find ones that are malformed and reports their URLs/record IDs?

Re: [Dspace-tech] Federating a number of DSpace instances
We have a situation here in New Zealand where each University has a repository (mainly dspace) and the National Library maintains an OAI-powered search engine that runs across them. OAI doesn't include the full text, so searching is significantly limited. If you search for a relatively rare surname in both, you'd expect to find more in the cross-site search, but this isn't the case, because most personal names occur in the acknowledgements and bibliography, which don't make it into the OAI metadata. Compare http://researcharchive.vuw.ac.nz/search?query=yeatessubmit=Go http://nzresearch.org.nz/index.php/search/results?query=yeatesx=0y=0 The second URL is the poorer search over the larger body of documents. The nzresearch.org.nz has huge benefits, but exhaustive searching isn't really one of them. cheers stuart Walker, David wrote: We have that use case here, John -- we are implementing separate DSpace instances for our 23 campuses, but we also need a separate interface that can search them all.

Re: [Dspace-tech] filter-media problem - question on size limit
There are a number of different versions of PDF and a number of applications that generate PDFs. Some combinations of version and application generate PDFs that are subtly misunderstood by some applications that read PDFs. I suggest that you try to narrow down which application was used to generate the PDFs you're having difficulty with. If you can isolate a set of versions and applications that give you trouble you can then open and re-save the PDFs in a tool that doesn't have the problem. This can potentially be automated too, if you have many PDFs. We have found, for example, that PDFCreator (the windows-based PDF program that works like a print-driver) strips out the full-text when used to concatenate documents together. Once we discovered this it was a relatively simple matter to adjust our workflow to compensate for the problem and catch the few bad PDFs that had already made it through into the collection. cheers stuart Thornton, Susan M.

Re: [Dspace-tech] two handles???
Kyle Kaliebe wrote: Hello all, One of our users had Dspace open in two browsers on the same machine, one in IE and the other in Firefox. She was logged in on the same account. She then went to the last step of submission for an item. At that point, she claims that her session jumped from Firefox to IE Most browsers have a call-back mechanism to allow urls and filetypes not handled natively by a browser to be handled (this is how, for example flash and most audio formats work as well as links from formats from PDFs to HTML files). Somewhere along the line, a URL most have been opened that invoked this mechanism which would have resulted in the default browser being invoked to open that URL. The mechanism is very platform specific. In this case I'm guessing that the default browser was I.E.. I.E. had a separate session open (based on a separate login and separate session cookie) and the user ended up editing the same record simultaneously from two sessions and this caused badness. I'm not a microsoft windows person, but I suspect this could be avoided by ensuring that you have the same default browser for http and https and using that browser for all the editing actions (as opposed to the view and verification actions, which is what I'm assuming you're using the second browser for). How do you determine which is your default browser? Click on links in Word, OOo and PDF documents (opened by double clicking the files, rather than from within the browser). If they all go to the same browser, that's your default, if they don't, consult someone who understands application settings on your platform. cheers stuart -- Stuart Yeates Te Pātaka Kōrero o Te Whare Wānanga o te Ūpoko o te Ika a Māui http://www.nzetc.org/ New Zealand Electronic Text Centre http://researcharchive.vuw.ac.nz/ Institutional Repository - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100url=/ ___ DSpace-tech mailing list DSpace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-tech
Re: [Dspace-tech] current status of UTF-8 in dspace and XML-UI / Manakin

What problems are you suffering exactly? Funky characters showing up instead? We get error message during submission and bad characters showing up. If you take a look at http://hdl.handle.net/10289/875, the dc.identifier.citation field uses macrons (eg. Māori). We've had no real problem with this. That's Dspace 1.4.2, JSPUI. This is with 1.5.* and Manakin / XML/UI. I didn't have a lot to do with content on the server I've linked to there, but I've recently been importing large numbers of theses and dissertations from an ADT repository to a test Dspace server, and have had to convert a lot of UTF-8 characters like vowels with macrons and umlauts into their HTML equivalents to satisfy org.dspace.app.itemimport.ItemImport. A Maori macron a is #257;, for example. This might have very bad side effects when any non-HTML manipulation or indexing of metadata is going on, so I welcome any criticism or pointers there. (For instance, authors' names with umlaut-u in them display fine when browsing by title or after a search, but click that author's name to start a new 'browse by author', and the character becomes garbled and no search results are found.)
