Hi Kev, There are some reported issues and others I've encountered. Here's a short list of what I posted in another thread: • https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-3999 (apply pull request 2195 to your source otherwise you can lose ORCID information when running "dspace index-authority") • https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-4073 • https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-3302 • The “Import Metadata” feature (using the “ORCID:” CSV column) doesn’t do a lookup of pre-existing ORCID iD records in the Solr authority index and will create duplicates • UpdateAuthorities has a problem with empty dc.contributor.author metadata (along with other issues as reported above)
Regarding the "view items" link, the search on Author ID will only return results based on the authority.minconfidence and authority.minconfidence.dc.contributor.author parameters. (There would be other authority.minconfidence.* parameters if you have other metadata under authority control). You also need to make sure you run "dspace index-discovery" from the command-line to update the Solr search index when you make changes to these parameters. The duplicate IDs in the lookup can be cleaned up using "dspace index-authority" (with pull request 2195!) assuming they are no longer being referenced in any metadata. If there are duplicates remaining, then you'll have to edit the metadata of the items that reference the duplicates so as to assign them all to a single authority record. -- Sean -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Kev Evans Sent: March 12, 2019 5:19 PM To: DSpace Technical Support <[email protected]> Subject: [dspace-tech] Problems with Author LookUp functionality Dspace 6.3 Hi I am having some issues with the Author Lookup functionality on Dspace 6.3. resulting in multiple ID's for the same author and inconsistent search results from the view items link. Mostly resulting in no results. I have turned off the ORCID integration to identify the issue. In fact I commented out most of the author lookup config to see what difference it would make. It doesn't behave as expected as in the instructions. Can I have some help please? The site is due to go live on Monday. Some indication of where I am going wrong or if this is a bug of some kind will be much appreciated.
