Hi Shawna / Hamish, Shawna, which of the problems are you seeing - the invalid header signature (POI, at the top), NoClassDefFoundError (PDF, at the bottom), or both?
The POI error appears to be some kind of corrupt header - chances are it is a file that looks like it might be a Word (or Excel, etc.) document, but isn't really. There is also some suggestion that it could be caused if the file has been saved from a web browser where the mime type hasn't been set correctly: http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=636568&messageID=3712847 You should take a closer look at the bitstream in question - is it really just a plain text document, with a .doc extension? Was it saved by something other than an MS app? If it truly is an MS doc, you could try saving the document afresh with a genuine MS product, and replacing the bitstream. As for the NoClassDefFoundError with PDFBox, it is because the PDF has been encrypted, and DSpace does not provide the decryption jar that is being used by PDFBox. You can get the necessary jar from: http://www.openjce.org/latest_releases.html G ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shawna Sadler" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Cc: "Rowena" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "derek McBurney" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, February 26, 2007 11:43 PM Subject: [Dspace-tech] MediaFilter error 1.4.1 > Hello everyone, > I see that Hamish Brett posted message to the list asking for help about > an error message for the MediaFilter after upgrading to 1.4.1, but I > don't see a response. > http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=38251230 > > We are experiencing the same problem now, any suggestions? > > Thanks, > Shawna > > -- > Shawna Sadler > Coordinator, Digital Initiatives > Libraries & Cultural Resources > University of Calgary > Phone: (403) 220-3739 > Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Take Surveys.
