There's a few options that exist. First, you could look into using a firewall proxy with Maven, if that would be possible in your scenario. See: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC/Installation#Installation-ConfiguringaProxy If that doesn't work, you can copy an existing installation of DSpace to your machine that doesn't have internet access. Essentially, this would mean installing DSpace on a machine that has internet access, and then copying it to your machine that is behind a firewall. This same question came up recently in dspace-tech mailing list: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg13059.html > > I have found: > > https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSPACE/InstallerPrototype > > Is this the current state-of-the-art? This Installer Prototype is still in the prototype phase. It doesn't quite work as planned yet, unfortunately. > Is there a single "binary" with > a complete and current DSpace release that I can download? Although there isn't a single downloadable "binary", you can build that binary yourself by running 'mvn package' on another computer that has internet access. I'm hoping that you can just configure a Maven proxy (most firewalls allow some form of proxy, unless they are really strict). - Tim ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ uberSVN's rich system and user administration capabilities and model configuration take the hassle out of deploying and managing Subversion and the tools developers use with it.
