Stuart,
Thanks for your message. It started me looking about to see
what the real problem was and I found this
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=11201450, made the
modification in my input-forms.xml and now have a couple of happy
instances of 1.3.2. Originally, input-forms.xml had a drop down value
without a matching "real" value.
Again, thanks for getting me going in the right direction.

Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] Submit Problem
Hi Brian,
It looks like DSpace is getting upset when it tries to display the
review page once the file has been uploaded (review.jsp).
The reason it is failing is because it is trying to prepare some of the
text (e.g. replace & with & for valid HTML etc) and that text is
non-existent (null). There has been a fix for this included since
version 1.4.1 of DSpace. For details (it is only a few lines long) see:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1605635&group_i
d=19984&atid=119984
It requires you to add the following line to org.dspace.core.Utils:
Just after: public static String addEntities(String value)
Add:
if (value==null || value.length() == 0) return value;
*However*, why DSpace is doing this (trying to display a non-existent
piece of metadata), I am not sure.
Hope this helps,
Stuart
