Brian, Could you also post the error log message from Tomcat/DSpace, to get more details on the "Internal Server Error" that you are seeing?
More description of the underlying error should be logged in either [tomcat]/logs or [dspace]/log/dspace.log (or both) Without the actual underlying error message it's hard to say what is going on. You first "ListSets" request should have been a valid one (assuming you have tomcat running on port 8180, and haven't renamed the dspace-oai.war). As an example, if you ran something similar on our UIUC DSpace site, you get back a proper OAI-PMH response (in an XML browser display) http://www.ideals.uiuc.edu/dspace-oai/request?verb=ListSets - Tim Brian Helstien wrote: > I'm also trying to get OAI-PMH functional.
