[Dspace-tech] Upload of files larger then 2 GB

2007-11-26 Thread Robert Roggenbuck
Dear all, I tried to submit a file larger then 2 GB but it is not possible using the Web-Interface. As far as I know it is not a limit by DSpace, nor HTML, Browser or HTTP. May be it is a Web server limit? Since files with such a size will be an exception an an upload limit is a good barrier

Hi Shaun, We are actually in the middle of this process and thought we had succeeded until it has come about that our ORACLE instance is setup with latin ISO8859 rather than UTF and believe this is why our import has not worked correctly for our eastern European characters. Everything else is

Hi Robert, Have you set the upload.max setting in dspace.cfg to a negative number (or bigger than 2 Gigs)? By default this setting has an upload limit of 512MB. You can disable the limit by setting it to upload.max=-1. Kyle -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Kyle, Thaks to the hint. I did not changed the standard setting: it still 512MB. When I try to upload a 1 GB file, the submit-process starts to work but ends up on a white page (with the tomcat-favicon at the URL instead of the DSpace one). additionally I have entries in the dspace.log

Robert, One alternative that works well for us is the ItemImport program. On the DSpace server create a directory with the large content file, a contents file listing the name of that file, and a simple XML file (dublin_core.xml) with the metadata. See section 7.4.4 of the DSpace 1.4.1 beta 1

Dear Jayan, I agree that this must be a possible way. But I do not know how to update an existing metadata record using the BatchItemImport and XSLTIngest. Adding to a collection works well. But in the description of the DIM-format there seems to be no possibility to include the ID of an

Re: [Dspace-tech] streaming video?

Naveed, We're doing something similar, not using DSpace to store the video but to store a pointer to the streaming server instead. We use a RAM formatted file, but SMIL would work the same. Here's an example: http://www.kumc.edu/archie/handle/2271/192 Jason Message: 1 Date: Sun, 25

This is a related question. If a user belongs to a group that has REMOVE,ADD,WRITE, and READ permissions on a community, should the person be able to create sub-communities and collections within that community? We have found that it is possible with the JSP interface, but when using the Manakin

Agree completely. Ideally, the video would be served and streamed from DSpace, or maybe the streaming server setup as a SRB. Jason On 11/26/2007 at 9:55 AM, in message [EMAIL PROTECTED], Shane Beers [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have run into this need at our university as well, and the only

Yes, but this would require a bit of programming on your part. Because these are systems with custom protocols and implementation, you would need to implement your own AuthenticationMethod that would bridge the gap between the two systems allowing credentials/tokens/ cookies from the

I haven't looked at the Manakin code, but the MIME media-type of a Bitstream must be coming from its associated BitstreamFormat -- so why not get the human-readable name from the BitstreamFormat as well? There is no need to establish a separate map of MIME-type to user-friendly name when it
