It wasn't. You can use any Servlet engine. We used JBoss for a while but went

Quick followup, in case it isn't clear (as I was asked about this
off-list). The preference would be to share your DSpace
setup/configuration information directly on this listserv (or you can
post up on the wiki if you prefer). That way we can get more eyes on
it, and hopefully come up with

I was recently asked to add type to the fields that can be searched in the

Along with that I was asked if I could modify the Advance Search

Manakin works much differently than JSPUI -- so there is never really a

Hi George,
Our dspace instance has a type indexing that can be searched.
I did put the type-search options in a separated page -

In the Advanced search there is no type drop down, but there is a
custom made language drop down.

When attempting to start the handle server for 1.6.2 it doesn't work.
