Thanks to everyone for the quick response! I do have ^M symbols in some of the files from that pesky database.
I think I can do a UTF-8 conversion in the Perl script as I'm pulling the data out... I'm also willing to share any/all of my Perl scripts for ETD-DB to Dspace conversion if anyone is having to do this. I will warn you, however, that I'm by no means a great Perl programmer (was a Java programmer in the past), but they provide a start at the very least Thanks again, Susan Dorothea Salo wrote: > On 5/4/07, Susan Teague Rector <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > >> Adding item from directory etd-05122005-082838 >> [Fatal Error] dublin_core.xml:9:111: Invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 >> sequence. >> > > Looks like an encoding error.
