Hi all,

I’m taking baby steps to https everywhere and right now looking at handles in 
DSpace. Until now we’ve assumed an http default, so the permalink for each 
record has been stored/displayed as an http handle, and the handle in turn 
links to the record through http. I’d like to change both, so the record should 
link to https://hdl.handle.net, and handle.net should resolve to 
https://our_dspace.ac.nz .

My initial brainstorm of all the bases I need to cover for this is as follows – 
can anyone fill in any blanks or see anything I’ve missed?


Change the handle url generated in DSpace:

·         dspace.cfg -> handle.canonical.prefix = https://hdl.handle.net

·         dspace.cfg -> webui.resolver.2.baseurl = https://hdl.handle.net

Change the handle urls stored in our dc.identifier field:

·         fun-but-careful psql queries ftw

·         followed by reindexing our OAI feed

Change the DSpace urls sent to handle.net:

·         ? is this determined by one of dspace.baseUrl or dspace.url? or is it 
a setting at CNRI’s end ?

Change the DSpace urls already stored by handle.net

·         ? ask CNRI to update our settings on their proxy server?



Thanks very much!
