Re: [Dspace-tech] Importer error
Looks like a permissions error on the file system. If you are running tomcat under the tomcat user and your Importer under the dspace user this is an issue that will arise. I really haven't a great solution for this yet. I put the tomcat user in the dspace group and set a sticky bit on the directories so that they are group owned by dspace, but the init.d start script used for tomcat on Linux usually forces a specific umask on the tomcat server so that you can't assure that new files are group writable. Ultimately leading me to need a cron script that periodically rewrites the permissions in the assetstore. An alternative strategy I've worked on today is to assign the dspace and tomcat users the same uid and gid so that they have identical user permissions. Ultimately, this exposes a certain ugliness in the way that clients/ applications use a dspace instance. Rather than a service one accesses to do tasks (which would operate in its own process with its own permissions), instead we see that DSpace is simply a set of libraries that can be executed on an assetstore/database pair... and there are so many places that can get screwed up. -Mark On Nov 27, 2007, at 8:48 AM, Mika Stenberg wrote: Would someone know what might be causing the importer to throw error like below.

Re: [Dspace-tech] streaming video?
Hi, Symlink DSpace project is stopped now. ad to Shane Beers reply -- it would be nice to have everything in central repository. But DSpace doesn't support many features that is needed for downloading big video files - all the things behind such as load balancing, data flow optimalization etc. (it is usual that the servers providing video files are overloaded from time to time, especially when students download captured lessons at the end of the term before exams :-)). That's why we have used the symbolic linking - all the things for optimizing doesn't depend on anything in DSpace. However I can't say there's no better way how to solve it. The symlinking seemed to be the most elegant way at that time. That's all I would like to add :-) Vlastik On Sun, 25 Nov 2007, NS Hashmi, Information Systems and Computing wrote: Hi, do you have a demo in action?

Re: [Dspace-tech] Importer error
Experienced a similar problem where assetstore was owned by user dspace, group dspace. Tomcat was running as user tomcat with primary group tomcat. Tomcat did also belong to group dspace but whenever it added files to the assetstore it would set the group owner to be tomcat. I have thought about setting the SGID bit on the assetstore directory, my understanding is that anything added to the directory will have the owner set to be the owner of the directory ie dspace. This would ensure that any other process belonging to group dspace would still be able to access all the files. However, I haven't implemented this yet !

[Dspace-tech] Item Permissions
Hello, I have a collection where the bitstream permissions are set to Anonymous. Since the collection bitstream permission are set to Anonymous can i set a permission for a specific item on that collection, other than anonymous? To give the entire idea: COLLECTION A (bitstream permissions to Anonymous) ITEM1 (bitstream permissions set to Anonymous) ITEM2 (i wanted to set bitstream with permissions only to GROUP A) I have tryied several options, but i think the read permission is always inherited from the father. So I think that i will never be able to set different permissions when the collection permissions are set to anonymous. Thanks!

Re: [Dspace-tech] Reading other files in Manakin (was: Re: Desired hierarchical display of communities and collection list)
Okay, I did a little bit of scouting around today, and I discovered that this gets really hairy really fast, but we probably can do something about it, if we're willing to create a DSpace-specific metadata schema just to hold bitstream information (which might not be the world's worst idea, actually -- but then again it might). The METS file element lets you have an admid attribute that points to administrative metadata about the file elsewhere in the METS document. For our purposes, we would probably end up creating something like this (assume the new metadata is in a ds schema) for each bitstream (or perhaps for each format in an item? one could point more than one bitstream to the same amdSec): mets:amdSec id=bitstream_1 mets:techMD id=bitstream_1_techmd mets:mdWrap OTHERMDTYPE=DIM MDTYPE=other mets:xmlData dim:dim dspaceType=BITSTREAM dim:field element=formatName mdschema=dsHappyFile version 1.01/dim:field /dim:dim /mets:xmlData /mets:mdWrap /mets:techMD /mets:amdSec The place to pop this in, I *think*, is somewhere in xmlui.objectmanager.ItemAdapter.java. If what I just suggested doesn't seem outrageous, I'll take a whack at coding it up.

[Dspace-tech] (no subject)
Hi I've been looking into this for a some now and it does not become any clearer. It's this. When you submit an item, there are these Initial Questions (initial-questions.jsp). There seem to be three of them. I was wondering how it is determined whether they are displayed or not? In initial-questions.jsp I can see that this depends on the return values of the functions inputSet.isDefinedMultTitles(), inputSet.isDefinedPubBefore() and SubmitServlet.isWorkflow(si) but that does not really explain why one user in our Dspace installation gets only the The item consists of more than one file question, and the other (they are both Dspace admins) sees The item has more than one title, e.g. a translated title AND The item consists of more than one file but NOT the third one. Incidentally, when we choose a different collection all three questions do show up. i cannot find any place in Dspace where this behaviour is set ... i.e. like in a config file of sorts. I could try and track this issue down through the java code, but just in case that any of you have seen this behaviour before and could offer me a shortcut, that could save me a lot of time ... thanks in advance! oh btw .. running Dspace 1.4.2 -- Maike Dulk - Programmer / Analyst McPherson Library, University of Victoria (t) 250-886-5709 / (e) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Arithmetic: An obscure art no longer practiced in the world's developed countries. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

[Dspace-tech] Strange error in our Dspace instance
Every evening at 12:08 we restart tomcat and postgres. On 3 occasions Oct 30 Nov 01 Nov 19 We started getting errors like the one below: 2007-10-30 00:22:23,752 WARN org.dspace.app.webui.servlet.InternalErrorServlet @ :session_id=9B156F98DC9E832C74A86E0DFDBFDD5B:internal_error:-- URL Was: http://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/handle/2027.42/48661 -- Method: GET -- Parameters were: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: org/dspace/license/CreativeCommons at org.apache.jsp.display_0002ditem$jsp._jspService(display_0002ditem$jsp.j ava:132) at org.apache.jasper.runtime.HttpJspBase.service(HttpJspBase.java:107) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:853) I'm a bit confused because we don't have CreativeCommons enabled, and I'm guessing that this error is misleading and that something else is happening. The IP addresses that cause these errors vary, and sometimes they are successful at retrieving items. The only way to stop the error from continuing is to restart tomcat. This is a new problem we are seeing and it may be coincidental but it started happening right after we did a full vacuum of our postgres database, but I thought I mention it in case it means something to some one.

Hi Marcelo, you can change the rights for an item and it's parts (bundles and bitstreams). Each element got it's own rights. The settings are derived during ingest from the DEFAULT_ITEM_READ and DEFAULT_BITSTREAM_READ of the collection. Once an item is submitted it's rights are independent of the owning collection. To change the rights log in as admin, navigate to the item you want to change, then edit item and use item's authorizations to change the rights.

If you have a sql dump backup from just prior to the incident you could diff it against a new dump for comparison of what exactly is different. Merging in the entries that were removed from epersongroups and its various tables and then do a full restore of the merged sql dump.

Is there a way through PostGreSQL to recover the group? I really don't want to restore the database from backup because I will loose submissions and changes that have been made. *** George Kozak Coordinator Web Development and Management Digital Media Group 501 Olin Library Cornell University 607-255-8924 *** [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ Mark R.

Re: [Dspace-tech] Restoring a deleted Group
Sorry, this was probibly a bit short-sighted a response, I went and tested it and the line numbers get reordered between submissions... its difficult to merge. What I might recommend is to get a list of all tables and sequences effected in a group deletion and do the following. 1.) get the previous dump prior to the deletion, restore it to a new db on a different machine 2.) dump only those tables and sequences to a sql dump file. 3.) restore those tables and sequences on a new copy of the existing database 4.) test this, verify that it works and doesn't break anything. 5.) take your production system offline and back it up 6.) preform the task on your production system 7.) bring the production system online and test. I believe the tables/sequences will be: SEQUENCE epersongroup_seq; SEQUENCE resourcepolicy_seq; SEQUENCE epersongroup2eperson_seq; SEQUENCE epersongroup2workspaceitem_seq; SEQUENCE group2group_seq; SEQUENCE group2groupcache_seq; TABLE EPersonGroup TABLE Group2Group TABLE Group2GroupCache TABLE ResourcePolicy TABLE EPersonGroup2EPerson TABLE epersongroup2workspaceitem I'm 100% sure about this list, some may be important, some may not. Hopefully you've not made changes to these tables since the incident... -Mark On Nov 27, 2007, at 4:55 PM, Mark Diggory wrote: If you have a sql dump backup from just prior to the incident you could diff it against a new dump for comparison of what exactly is different.

Re: [Dspace-tech] External database authentication in dspace

I want to discuss further, I have already integrated our LMS (moodle) with our organization's MS AD (LDAP server) and I think we can integrate it with Dspace as well and this will give same sign on to both. But I am looking for the feature to enable single sign on (Once the user is logged in LMS (Moodle) his/her login authentication should pass on to dspace as well). Dspace should not prompt the users to login. Looking forward for the suggestions I think one of the selling points of Shibboleth is single sign-on. I've only had a relatively light investigation of it so far. It's probable that we'll be implementing the infrastructure at USyd soonish for the cross-institutional collaboration that it would facilitate. Until then, I'm afraid I've no expertise on the subject, but the Shibboleth web site has a many links to resources including mailing lists that you could make use of. Also, I'm sure people here and on the mailing lists of moodle and joomla would be keen to help if you come up with questions specific to integrating shibboleth into dspace, moodle and joomla respectively.
