Hi both, If it works in DSpace 7.2.1, but not 7.3, it could be due to the database dialect issue. DSpace 7.3 uses a newer Hibernate, which changes the supported dialects. Make sure your local.cfg and dspace.cfg are using:
db.dialect = org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQL94Dialect Previously the dialect was DSpacePostgreSQL82Dialect. This one bit me and I was confused for weeks until someone mentioned it recently on the DSpace Slack.
